Chapter 5105 Whose Watermelon
"…the kind person who helped me pick up the second watermelon."
The girl is very good at talking.
"Now he is helping me find the last remaining watermelon out of kindness."
"We'll follow the same path I took before and find our way back."
“He found the watermelon.”
……
“That’s where I bought my watermelon.”
Seeing that the old man still looked skeptical, the girl turned her head, raised her chin and pointed at a fruit shop that was a little distance away.
"If you don't believe me, you can go and ask the owner of the fruit shop."
“I bought three watermelons.”
"It happened not too long ago."
"The boss should still remember me."
"...He also advised me that it would be difficult for a girl like me to carry three watermelons..."
"I said it's okay."
"I once brought home three watermelons at once."
"I can."
At that time, she had a good impression of the owner of the fruit shop.
did not think of……
"I didn't expect that the plastic bags my boss gave me for watermelons were of such poor quality..."
As the girl spoke, she couldn't help but complain. This matter really made her angry.
He cared so much about her one moment, and then he gave her a torn bag the next moment.
"The bag broke on the way..."
"All the watermelons are rolling out."
"I……"
The girl swallowed the uncivilized words that followed.
She pursed her lips.
"If it weren't for this kind-hearted boy..."
“I could only bring back one watermelon.”
……
A trace of confusion appeared on the old man's face.
The girls spoke very truthfully.
He stared into the girl's eyes.
There was no trace of evasion in the girl's eyes.
……
“….Then you can’t be sure that this watermelon is yours, right?”
The old man thought for a moment and said.
……
"Yes."
The girl admitted this readily.
“That’s what I just thought of…”
Then he showed hesitation.
That caused the old man to misunderstand.
……
"Grandpa, is this your watermelon?"
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "Or do you know who the owner of this watermelon is?"
……
The old man shook his head.
Nod again.
“This is not my watermelon.”
"I did see who put the watermelon here before."
……
"real?!"
The girl was surprised.
This watermelon...
Is it really not her watermelon?
……
The old man nodded again.
"At that time, I was sweeping the floor over there..."
The old man pointed to the location.
Just opposite this bush.
So, he saw it very clearly.
A thin boy put the watermelon into the bushes.
If it hadn't taken him some time to get there, he really wanted to ask that boy...
Why put watermelons on the bushes?
Does this mean the watermelon is thrown away?
its not right.
If you really want to lose it...
There is a trash can next to it.
Wouldn’t it be more convenient to just throw the watermelon into the trash can?
……
"...I don't know what he's thinking?"
The old man shook his head.
A look of incomprehension.
"Does he want this watermelon?"
"Or don't want it?"
……
"Of course I want it."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
……
what?
The old man looked at Xiao Xiao.
Looked confused.
"how do you know?"
If you want, just a watermelon.
Why not take it away?
If there is really some reason why it is inconvenient to carry it, why buy it?
Or did an emergency occur after the purchase?
The old man thought of many reasons for the boy.
……
"It's a pity that I didn't buy the watermelon myself."
Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.
....
"?!"
The old man was taken aback.
"how do you know?"
The old man asked again.
Is this kid just talking nonsense just to get this watermelon?
……
"My guess."
Xiao Xiao's lips curled up slightly, and he looked righteous.
……
elder:……
……
"Oh!"
An idea suddenly came to the girl's mind.
"Maybe he picked up this watermelon and wanted to embezzle it himself, but was worried about running into the owner of the watermelon..."
"Just hide the watermelon in the bushes for now."
"Planning to pick it up later?!" The more the girl spoke, the more she felt that her guess was right.
The girl's eyes became brighter and brighter.
……
"right!?"
The girl looked at Xiao Xiao.
Does this boy mean the same thing?
……
Xiao Xiao had a smile on his face.
He nodded.
That's right.
This was also his guess.
……
The old man's mouth opened slightly.
Don't say...
The girl said this guess...
It's not impossible.
but……
"It's all your guess."
The old man shook his head.
"You have no evidence at all to prove that what you say is true."
……
"We can wait for him to come!"
The girl blurted out, "Confrontation!"
……
The old man was stunned.
Girls are so confident...
The balance in his heart was shaken.
Is it...
Are these two kids right?
That skinny boy is not the owner of this watermelon.
But...
It can't be said that he is a thief.
It can only be said that it is a…….
People who are greedy, don't want to return the money, and have poor character...
……
The old man was silent.
He hesitated.
....
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"I have proof."
……
what?
Not only the old man, but also the girls looked at Xiao Xiao in surprise.
evidence?
What evidence?
……
"Look."
Xiao Xiao's fingers moved seemingly casually.
The watermelon in his hand moved slightly.
……
After a few seconds, the watermelon stopped.
Revealed...
....
After a second of stunned silence, the girl opened her eyes wide.
"this is!?"
……
what?
The old man looked at the girl.
Look at the watermelon again.
……
"The label above!"
The girl cried out.
……
The old man finally understood what the boy wanted him to see...
It turned out to be a label on a watermelon.
……
The girl leaned over to look at the pattern and text on the label.
"...Exactly the same."
The girl murmured.
She looked down at the watermelon in her arms.
He also slowly rolled his watermelon.
……
"what."
The girl whispered.
I see!
……
The girl compared the labels of three watermelons.
"…They are exactly the same…"
……
The girl looked at Xiao Xiao with sparkling eyes.
“They’re all the same brand of watermelon!”
……
"Ah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
……
"let me see."
The old man's nose was almost touching the watermelon.
He carefully read the labels on the three watermelons.
……
Ok.
The old man took a step back.
Exactly the same.
but……
……
"It could also be a coincidence."
……
The old man suddenly raised his eyes.
That's what he had in mind.
Maybe you bought the fruit in a fruit store.
After all, there is only one fruit shop nearest to here.
So, it is normal to buy watermelons with the same labels.
……
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"Although we cannot be absolutely sure, this is also a possibility that can confirm that this watermelon is indeed ours."
……
The old man nodded slowly.
That's right.
If he hadn’t seen with his own eyes that skinny boy putting the watermelon in the bushes…
He must have believed that the two people in front of him were the real owners of the watermelon hidden in the bushes.
