Chapter 88 His Retribution Is You

What is the essence of human beings?

That must be eating melons and reading gossip.

What gossip or melon is the most interesting and eye-catching?

It must be exciting, with strong expectations and hooks, and preferably with a reversal, making people unable to help but guess what will happen next. Only then is it a truly good story.

And obviously, the news about Wang Wei is in line with public expectations.

Several waves of reversals in the early stage have whetted everyone’s appetite. Everyone is very curious about how this wish can be realized in the end?

As we all know, Wang Wei's wish was to hope that his family would receive corresponding retribution. His father and mother were indeed not good people and they did abuse him.

But the problem is, he himself is not that good either.

He picked up a bench and hit people. Although the targets were his scumbag parents, it is clear that he has mental problems. If this kind of person who can't even control his own emotions is released into the wild to harm others, wouldn't that be scary?

He took revenge on his parents. If they were really sent to jail, then he would be without any constraints. Who can guarantee what he would do?

But if his scumbag parents don't get punished, he will feel that the bad people in this world are too rampant, and it seems like they will never accept it no matter what.

Although Bai Qiuwu was not infected by this emotion, she was also somewhat curious about how things would develop.

In her perception, the wish has begun to come true, but it will take a few more days to complete. The final result will not be a good result in the traditional sense, but the wish will definitely come true.

Anyway, Bai Qiuwu had an idea in his mind, but netizens were different. They knew nothing and felt like there were claws scratching their hearts. They were extremely curious.

They are eager to know the ending.

Unfortunately, the ending is not so easy to know.

Bai Qiuwu certainly wouldn't be that unscrupulous businessman who would hold back the ending and whet everyone's appetite, but this matter wouldn't be resolved in a short time either.

Wang Wei's father, who was drunk, was taken away directly by several aunties from the neighborhood committee. Before leaving, the aunties spoke righteously and showed no fear at all.

They were like righteous people fighting against evil forces, and their image suddenly became glorious.

Bai Qiuwu watched them leave in a bustling crowd, and quickly followed them stealthily with a camera, and soon saw them enter the neighborhood committee.

It’s just difficult to follow up.

Bai Qiuwu had no choice but to express regretfully to the camera that he had no way of getting in.

Netizens were very excited and were discussing how the matter would develop. When they saw Bai Qiuwu say that she had no other choice, they gave her some advice.

How about sneaking in and filming it for us with your phone or livestreaming it? Don't bring a camera with you; you'll be too conspicuous. Just pretend to be a woman in need and try to get in.

[I remember the neighborhood committee being easy to get into. Come on, figure out a way to get in. I'm really curious what's going to happen next. Will this couple be punished at the neighborhood committee? Criticized? Fined?]

I really didn't expect the neighborhood committee to meddle in other people's affairs. It's a bit outrageous that they even meddle in such matters. Shouldn't the neighborhood committee exist only through word of mouth? Do they actually care about things?

[No, I don't know if you noticed, but the old lady just now said that it was the child who reported his parents abusing him. Damn, this child is not as innocent as he looks. I suddenly feel a little scared when I think about it.]

[The more I think about it, the more terrifying it is. Ever since I saw that video, I can no longer look directly at our timid classmate Wang. I'm really afraid that Wang will pick up a bench and smash it on my head in the next second. I'm really scared.]

…

Looking at these comments, Bai Qiuwu felt everyone's enthusiasm, but was also helpless. He could only ask with regret, but was not allowed to broadcast live and strangers were not allowed to enter.

"Today's live broadcast may end here for now. I'll try to figure out if I can sneak in later. I'll keep an eye on the follow-up and let everyone know as soon as I have the results."

As she spoke, she explained a few more words, and then, regardless of everyone's regretful requests to stay, she ended the live broadcast.

After the broadcast ended, she immediately looked at Pu Xi and asked, "Shall we go in and take a look?"

Pu Xi had this in mind, so he asked the cameraman to wait for them with the camera. The two of them approached the neighborhood committee out of curiosity, and then sneaked in.

They were also extremely curious about what would happen inside.

The neighborhood committee was quite large, with many branching roads. They almost lost their way, and at this time the man's unique loud voice was very recognizable.

Even from a distance, Bai Qiuwu and Pu Xi could hear the man shouting loudly. They looked at each other and moved towards the source of the sound.

At last they came to a door which was shut.

The shabby wooden door could not block the sounds from inside at all. Bai Qiuwu and Pu Xi leaned against the door panel and began to listen to the gossip very seriously.

First came Wang Wei's father's voice: "What are you doing? I beat my own child and that's abuse? You're just listening to that bastard's nonsense. I was just educating him. Do you understand?"

The neighborhood committee lady was equally loud and disapproving of Bai Qiuwu. She directly retorted, "What kind of education can break a child's leg? I see you're just a die-hard, drinking and gambling idiot. What else can you do?"

"I drink and gamble, what does that have to do with my child's upbringing? What do you mean by breaking his leg isn't education? Why didn't you come out when he broke my leg?"

The man was furious and yelled at the top of his lungs, "That kid is mentally ill. You've all been fooled by him. He's not a good person at all. He's just pretending all the time."

"Don't you think it's ridiculous? How could such a small child break your leg? Wang Dayong, I advise you to be more sensible and honestly confess your mistakes. Do you still want to abandon the child? I tell you, this is illegal!"

"If you don't explain this clearly today, we'll see you in court. I'm telling you, the neighborhood committee has officially sued you on behalf of little Wang Wei. Don't act like a child without weapons to protect yourself. This is a society ruled by law!"

Wang Dayong laughed out loud when he heard this: "I'm educating my own child, and you're suing me? I think you're crazy!"

He was probably very angry and started to swear non-stop. Every word he said was extremely unpleasant. He no longer wanted to solve the problem. He just wanted to curse these nosy women to death.

These aunties were not easy to deal with. They were immediately furious and started to argue with each other without showing any weakness. Bai Qiuwu and Pu Xi just listened to a very exciting verbal battle.

While they were amazed, they also received a very important piece of news. These aunts actually helped Wang Wei sue Wang Dayong for abandonment.

And the court date is very soon, in these two days.

After Bai Qiuwu received the news, he almost immediately looked at Pu Xi.

Pu Xi immediately realized that he needed to take action, so he started looking for people, found out the specific time of the lawsuit, and obtained the qualifications to attend the on-site hearing.

The two left very satisfied and discussed their next itinerary.

When it comes to live streaming, if you don’t broadcast for a day, you will lose a lot of popularity. After all, there are so many interesting anchors, and if you don’t broadcast, there will be many people to replace you.

But Bai Qiuwu's situation is different. The live streaming industry has been around for so long, but no one has been able to match Bai Qiuwu's outrageous style.

When others stop broadcasting, their popularity is dispersed, but when Bai Qiuwu stops broadcasting, his popularity is gathered.

I don’t know how many people are eagerly waiting for the result at this moment, and calling their friends to spread this outrageous thing in various ways. I don’t know how many people know about it at once.

What situation is most frustrating?

The most frustrating thing is when you desperately want to know the ending, but the ending takes a long time to appear.

Bai Qiuwu stopped broadcasting for the past two days, which was like a scumbag's hard-to-get strategy. Not only did he not lose popularity, but he became more and more popular. In the end, he was stuck at the end of the hot searches.

Moreover, Pu Xi is very good at marketing. He even posted a Weibo to whet the appetite and directly said that the next live broadcast will be when the court opens, and he will take everyone to watch the final result.

This is just like the preview, and it is instantly more attractive.

All sorts of forums sprang up all at once.

[Title: What on earth is this woman trying to hide?]

[Content: Ahhhh, I really want to know what the final outcome of that child is. Why hasn’t the live broadcast started yet? I’m going crazy, I’m going to bang my head against the wall, I’m going to jump off the building, start the live broadcast, start the live broadcast!]

First floor: It can be seen that the poster is in a very bad mental state. What a coincidence, I am the same. I really can't wait even a moment. You don't know how anxious I am waiting for this result. I am really afraid that the boy's wish will come true, but I am also really afraid that his wish will not come true.

2nd floor: I feel the same way. When I think about his parents being punished if my wish comes true, no matter what the punishment is, I feel it's inappropriate. Wouldn't putting him in jail just release this troublesome boy? If they're fined but not imprisoned, I guess they'll end up taking their anger out on the boy. It doesn't seem right either way.

3rd Floor: I can't imagine how this wish can be fulfilled. What exactly is the punishment? Detention or solitary confinement? Verbal admonishment? Forced fine? But if they have the money to pay the fine, do they have it? So, can Master Bai please get back to business? I'm really curious.

4th Floor: Didn't they say they were sued for abandonment? I searched on Baidu and it's a pretty serious charge. There's also child abuse involved. If the case is brought, there might be a prison sentence. And the child would generally be raised by relatives.

5th Floor: I suddenly felt bad for the relative. I know this boy can't control his emotions and sometimes he doesn't act crazy on purpose, but this is even more terrifying, okay? If the relative knew about his situation, who would want to keep him? How can this be dealt with?

…

Countless people joined the discussion, offered various suggestions, and thought of various punishments, but in the end no one was satisfied.

Then they discussed it like this for a few days. On the afternoon of the third day, just when everyone's appetite was about to die down, Bai Qiuwu's live broadcast room suddenly started.

And he started with a big move, and really started broadcasting the court live.

In fact, the court also refuses live broadcast. This situation is very sloppy and is generally prohibited.

But Pu Xi didn't know how he managed to get people to give him a break and approve their live broadcast application.

This is a feast for the eyes of netizens.

The netizens who were originally a little unhappy about being hung for three days were really excited when they saw this live court.

And even more exciting things are yet to come.

As the plaintiff, Wang Wei was too young, so it was basically the lawyer hired by the neighborhood committee who was speaking for him.

This lawyer is not very powerful, but he has a lot of evidence. He presented several surveillance videos from the community, all of which were videos of Wang Dayong beating his son.

Moreover, Wang Wei himself took out the original document that he had shown to Bai Qiuwu, which was the proof that his parents wanted to abandon him.

Once this information came out, it was almost a done deal.

Next it was Wang Dayong's time to defend himself. He had no money to hire a lawyer, so he was speaking for himself.

"This kid is sick, his brain is sick. I hit him because he hit me first. He's crazy, you know? He really can go crazy!"

He was incoherent and very emotional, and his words were confusing and difficult to understand.

"He hit me first, so I fought back. He's my son. What's wrong with me educating him? I didn't abandon him. He's mentally ill. I just wanted to send him to an orphanage. How can that be considered abandonment?"

"He's my child. I can throw him wherever I want. It's none of your business. How can this be illegal?!"

I have to say, it would have been better if he hadn't said this.

The immediate success left the judge speechless.

I have seen people who are ignorant of the law, but I have never seen someone so ignorant of the law.

This was a completely one-sided trial.

On the one hand, the evidence is irrefutable, but on the other hand, the explanation is unclear. Who should I believe? The judge is not stupid.

However, the final verdict surprised everyone.

The judge raised his hammer high and announced the verdict calmly and without hesitation: "The plaintiff wins. Because the plaintiff is a minor, the defendant is ordered to enforce his obligation to support the plaintiff."

"Until the plaintiff reaches adulthood, the defendant must provide food, clothing, shelter and transportation and must not abandon him."

…

There are a lot of other words after that, which can be summarized as Wang Dayong cannot abandon his son, nor can he beat or scold him anymore, and he must support him until he reaches adulthood.

As for Wang Wei, his wish seemed to have not been fulfilled for a while.

When the court session ended, Wang Wei stopped Bai Qiuwu before she could leave.

"Liar!" He pointed at Bai Qiuwu angrily, "Didn't you say my wish would come true? Why did it end like this?"

Bai Qiuwu looked at the boy who no longer concealed himself, paused, and asked, "What wish did you make?"

"I'll make them pay!" the boy shouted.

Bai Qiuwu: "Yes, your wish has come true, hasn't it? They have already paid the price."

"You were forcibly tied to them. Isn't this their price? It's very painful, okay!"

"They insisted on giving birth to you, and now their retribution has come, and their retribution is you!"
