"I went out to buy some stuff, and it was getting a bit dark. I was in a hurry to get back to school, but on the way, I was stopped by three guys."
Lin Dong had a shadow in his heart because he had been robbed before, so now he hardly goes out too late, and he won't easily go to remote and deserted places even in daylight.
But the place where he encountered those three people was truly on the main street.
"They grabbed my neck and pointed a knife at my back, demanding money, saying they needed to 'borrow' some cash. I realized I couldn't take on all three of them, so I thought it's better to lose money than to invite disaster upon myself.
Fortunately, I didn't carry much money with me, only a few bucks in my pocket. They took not only my money but also my watch and the pen you, Brother-in-law, gave me!"
He really liked that pen, so he always carried it with him.
Having it stolen by those crooks made his heart ache terribly.
