Chapter 017 The Pickpocket

Ye Fei went down to the street and went to the bank around the corner. He wanted to transfer the money to his comrades' families.

Unfortunately, the bank was closed. The building was being renovated, and the next nearest bank was seven bus stops away.

It was the morning rush hour and the bus was full of office workers, crowded together like sardines in a can.

When the bus arrived, Ye Fei took one look at the crowd inside and decided he wouldn't even be able set foot inside, so he gave up the opportunity to take the bus and ran to the bank on foot.

In a straight line, it was only four kilometers away. 

This distance was nothing to Ye Fei, who did regular strength training and jogged 10 kilometers at a time.

However, Ye Fei's movement was a little out of place in the fast-paced life of the big city and attracted the attention of all the pa.s.sersby, who thought he was a freak.

Ye Fei didn't care about these people. He maintained a constant speed and soon reached the door of the bank.

Since working hours had just begun, there weren't that many people in the bank. Ye Fei took a number from the machine and quickly transferred the money to his comrades' families.

Seeing the money had been successfully transferred, Ye Fei thanked the clerk with a smile and left.

Outside the bank, Ye Fei saw an acquaintance - the same university professor, Chu Mo, who'd just accused him of being a pervert. "Oh! You again?" he thought.

Chu Mo held an envelope in her hand, which probably contained a thick stack of bills. Ye Fei guessed there were several tens of thousands of Yuan inside.

After carefully counting the money, she put a hand on her chest and sighed before putting the envelope in her bag.

Ye Fei had just had a misunderstanding with Chu Mo, so he didn't want to talk to her. He lowered his gaze and trotted away. Besides, he felt this woman had a bit of a problem. She wasn't quite normal.

With her bad eyesight, plus being focused on her envelope, Chu Mo did not notice Ye Fei as he slunk past her.

As Ye Fei turned the corner, he noticed two men walk out from across the street, their eyes tightly focused on Chu Mo.

There was no doubt that Chu Mo was a beautiful woman, and her body had a unique scholastic flavor. No matter where she was, she would attract plenty of men's gazes.

But Ye Fei saw something else in the eyes of the two men.

Greed.

Greed for money.

The two men's target was the envelope full of money in Chu Mo's purse.

Ye Fei knew there was a kind of thief who hid outside banks, and when they saw someone leave the bank with a lot of money, they would follow them and steal their money in a crowded, chaotic, noisy place.

They hid across the street, which prevented the security camera in front of the bank from filming them.

These kinds of thieves were usually habitual offenders. Their success rate was very high and they could steal plenty of money every time.

Chu Mo lowered her head and hurriedly walked toward the nearest bus stop.

The two men glanced at each other and followed her.

Ye Fei saw it all.

Chu Mo, that silly woman, completely failed to realize that she was already being followed by the thieves.

"Humph! None of my business," Ye Fei grumbled coldly. He was still angry at her and didn't want to intervene.

However, the words of his mentor, "Eagle Feather", suddenly echoed in his mind, "Ye Fei, the soldier's duty is dedication. As long as we can make people feel safe and happy, it's all worth it. Remember that. You should often ask yourself: 'if I do this, will I regret it?'."

Ye Fei's face showed a bitter smile. He was a good soldier in the army, and he was also a good man in the city.

If Ye Fei didn't intervene, he would regret it.

So, Ye Fei followed Chu Mo onto the bus. Rush hour had not pa.s.sed yet, so it was still very crowded on board.

Chu Mo soon noticed that Ye Fei, that nasty man, was on the bus with her, standing very close to her.

Chu Mo was afraid, thinking this pervert wanted to a.s.sault her. She started retreating further into the bus, but no matter where she went, Ye Fei was close behind.

"You..."

Ye Fei's shameless behavior made Chu Mo completely furious. Her face turned red.

If they were in the wilderness, Chu Mo would be scared speechless. However, on the bus full of people, Chu Mo was brave. She pointed to Ye Fei's nose in public and said, "Why are you always following me? What are you up to?"

Chu Mo's words caught the attention of many of the pa.s.sengers, and they all looked at Ye Fei with surprise.

Ye Fei wasn't fl.u.s.tered at all. He smiled, "You go your way and I go my way. You don't own this bus. Why can't I ride it? Are you in charge of where I can and cannot stand?"

"You..."

Chu Mo was a university professor. Usually she was glib, but this time she couldn't think of any words to rebuke Ye Fei.

"You... You're a pervert! I'm going to get off the bus. Please don't follow me." Chu Mo had no other choice. She could only change buses to get rid of Ye Fei.

This was Ye Fei's plan. If Chu Mo moved to another bus, the two thieves would not be able to steal her money. Although Ye Fei was wronged, Chu Mo's money would be saved, so he will have done a good thing.

The next stop was coming soon.

Chu Mo was a little nervous. She looked back and found that her bag was open.

Her heart froze. She stuck her hand in the bag to feel around and realized that the envelope full of money was gone.

Someone stole it!

Chu Mo's brain was blank. She just screamed: "Someone stole my money! Help!"
