Oliver: Sensitive, kind and brave. No matter what happens, Oliver was always so clever and kind, and his noble soul had never been eroded by sin. In the end, his love and kindness to the world helped him overcome fate and won his own happiness.

Fagin: A thief. Evil but kind. He tried to turn Oliver into a thief, and when Oliver was caught in the accident on the street, Fagin became furious, furious, and even fisted and kicked each other. However, he cared the other thieves, and played games with them.

Nancy: Kind-hearted, brave and witty, daring to love and hate. When Fagin and Monks plotted how to deal with the tortured Oliver, Nancy deliberately pretended to be drunk and fell to one side to seriously listen to their secrets. Finding the opportunity, she quietly passed over the wall guard and delivered the news as quickly as possible.
