Light of Humanity

There were some confiscated bikes that would be auctioned after the announcement. In the auction, one ten years old boy always started the bidding with Five dollars in each time and then watched the bike bought by other persons in thirty or fourty dollars. During the break, the auctioneer asked the boy why not to give a higher price. The boy said that he only had five dollars.

The auction began again. The boy still started the bidding with Five dollars. Of course, the bikes were bought by others eventually. Gradually, the audience began to notice the boy. More and more people had a keen interest in the result of the boy’s bidding. Near the end of the auction, there was only one best bikes left. The body was bright as new, with variety of gear, ten segments rod transmission, bi-directional hand brake, speed monitor and a nighttime electric lighting installations. It is undoubtedly a rare good bikes!

The auctioneer asked: "Who bid?"

Standing in front, the Umbrella Factory boy almost given up the hope, but he still standed up and said firmly: "five dollars."

At this time, the auction scene was almost silent. Everyone hold their breath and quietly stood there to wait for the results.

All the people stared at the little boy and no one said anything, no one handed up, no one bidded. After the auctioneer shouted the price three times, he exclaimed that the bike was sold to the boy who wore the shorts and white sneakers.

The audience applauded when they heard the words. The little boy took the five dollars and bought the world’s most beautiful bike. His smile on the face was never seen before.

The little boy won it because he didn’t give up the hope. While from another side, we also could notice that the persons who didn’t bid at last time are so lovely. Some people must want to and could give more than five dollars to buy the bike. While all the people keep a tacit agreement to help the boy fulfill his wish. It exactly shows the humanity’s lovely and warm side.
