NovelEnglishChapter 983
After a series of discussions, we cup with a final plan.
That night, Nina and Shannon would go to one of the families to borrow something. However, after the family
members went into the house, they would both steal the basket of beans drying in the sun in the yard.
When the two of them returned, we looked at the basket full of beans and were confident that the other party
would call the cops. However, nothing happened even until the next afternoon. That family did not cto us to
ask us to return the beans either.
We speculated that the family must have thought that we were pitiful and were in desperate need of food, so
that was why they did not make a scene out of it.
Such a result left Shannon a little speechless. We eventually returned the beans to the family.
Though not long after that, the family sent the basket o f beans back to us again.

bothered.
People even started sending them food.
These were foods grown by the farmers themselves.
Living in the mountains, the majority of the villagers lived off nature. From the day they were born, they felt that
their lives were just like the rest of the villagers. They knew nothing about the world outside the mountains and
were not curious about it either.
In their opinion, the reason why Nina and Shannon were stealing other people's food was that they were poor
and hungry. Therefore, out of sympathy, they decided not to pursue the matter with them.
After figuring this out, we decided not to proceed with the plan.
Even so, out of sympathy, the villagers continued sending food to us in the next few days. However, we rejected
them all.
After several encounters, we learned that the father and daughter we were staying with were called Harchi and
Hara.
Nina once learned a minority language, hence after being here for days, she was able to hold simple
conversations with the father and daughter.
After understanding why we took other people's things, Harchi helplessly said, "You didn’t have to do that. |
could help you borrow it from someone else."
Shannon helplessly sighed. She realized now that stealing other people's things just so the villagers would call
the cops was a foolish thing to do.
Nevertheless, humans would do all sorts of ridiculous things when they were desperate.
"We did try and borrow a phone on the second day we were in the village but none of them had it. There wasn't
even a landline," Nina said with a frown.
Harchi smiled slightly. "They didn't know you guys yet, so even if they had it, they didn't want to lend it to you."

Later, Harchi told us to wait until the next morning. H e would borrow a phone for us then. He could not go
tonight because there were customs here against going to other people's houses at night.
Thinking that they were going hvery soon, the girls were slightly emotional and could not sleep at night.
The next morning, Harchi went out to borrow a phone for us. Nina was already starting to say her goodbyes t o
Hara. She promised her that we would cand visit her again with dolls and good food when we got home.
When it was noon, Harchi walked into the yard under our expectant gazes. He looked at us and said a little
dejectedly, "I didn’t manage to borrow a phone, but I think cops have cto our village. Do you want to go and
take a look?"
When Nina heard that there were cops in the village, she was instantly over the moon.

Shannon, on the other hand, asked vigilantly, "Why are the cops suddenly here?"
