Chapter 53 A dismal ending

53

Tang Shengkai counted them, a total of 11. None of these young men were strong and muscular, and they all looked thin, but they must have been in society for a long time, and they all had a fierceness about them.

Seeing that everyone was there and there was no one guarding the entrance to the alley, Tang Shengkai simply stopped pretending and stood up straight, holding Tang Yue in his arms. "It really is haunting you."

The little rascal who just spoke raised his eyebrows and said, "Hey, what's the matter? You don't like me, but that's useless.

"Be good and take out the money you have on you, and leave behind the baskets and bags you are carrying, and I will spare your lives. Otherwise, the consequences will be something you cannot afford."

Tang Shengkai smiled and said, "I've heard this a lot. I wasn't raised to be scared. Just use whatever skills you have."

While he was talking, he had already put Tang Yue on the ground. Seeing that Tang Shengkai showed no fear at all, the man thought that this person had never been out before and was quite brave.

A young thug in the crowd laughed at Tang Shengkai in a loud voice, "I say, you're bringing old and young people with you, you'd better be smart and hand over the things quickly, otherwise you won't end up without the things and almost lose your life, which would be terrible.

We also have principles in what we do. As long as you obey and take out your things, we won't punish you."

Tang Yue snapped her hands together, "Stop talking nonsense and get started. I still have to go shopping later."

The voice was soft and non-threatening, and these hooligans found it very funny.

The leading thug took two steps forward and pulled his hands out of his trouser pockets. "Little girl, you're so ungrateful at such a young age. Since you're so eager to experience the power of my fist, I'll grant you your wish."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and punched Tang Shengkai's eyes hard.

Tang Shengkai had already prepared a defensive posture. When the man came up, he stretched out his arms, but his powerful punch missed.

Because at this time, the gangster in the lead had already flown away with wailing sounds.

Tang Yue had already retracted her little feet, and her body moved nimbly among the group of hooligans.

These people didn't take Tang Yue seriously at first and were all heading for Tang Shengkai. However, Tang Yue, being small, weaved through the crowd, using both her hands and feet, without using any spiritual power, she knocked down all these outnumbered thugs.

Afterwards, Tang Shengkai, Lin Cuicui, Old Li and Tang Bei went up and attacked from both sides. Lin Cuicui mainly dealt with the two thieves in the car, and bursts of wailing were heard in the alley.

Within two minutes, these people began to wail and beg for mercy, but Tang Yue was not prepared to let them go. Letting them go would bring harm to more people.

When asking for directions just now, Tang Yue had already asked about the location of the Public Security Bureau.

After trapping the hooligans with the rags in the backpack, Tang Yue left the alley and randomly picked two pedestrians to report the case to the police station. Some enthusiastic people went, while others followed her into the alley to watch the excitement.

Seeing the thugs being beaten horribly, the onlookers twitched their lips. Who was trying to harm whom? Why did they feel that these thugs were even worse off than the victims?

Before long, several bicycles with ringing bells came closer from afar. The police officers ran past and shouted loudly, adding a touch of tension to the cold street.

When the gangsters heard the voice, the purple color on their faces could not hide the complicated look in their eyes. They should have been panicked and uneasy, but at this moment they seemed to feel that this was a relief.

"The police are here, what should we do?" A gangster asked with a trembling voice.

"What else can we do? Run!" The leading gangster shouted weakly. Although the police officers seemed not as ruthless as this family, who would be willing to go in there for reform when they could breathe the free air outside?

He tried to get up from the ground, but Tang Yue kicked him lightly and he fell back to the ground.

The police arrived at the scene quickly, quickly controlling the situation and cuffing the hooligans one by one. Tang Shengkai and Lin Cuicui stood by, their faces filled with relief. They had caught these hooligans, and they would pay the price for their actions.

"Are you okay?" A police officer walked up to Tang Shengkai and asked with concern.

Tang Shengkai shook his head. "We're fine, thanks to you guys arriving in time."

The public security officer nodded, his gaze fell on Tang Yue, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He was good at handling cases and saw the fear of this little girl in the eyes of those gangsters. He didn't know what this little girl had done to make those desperate criminals who lingered on the edge of darkness every day feel afraid.

Could this seemingly fragile little girl be the key person to subdue these gangsters?

The public security officer shook his head, trying to get rid of the unrealistic idea in his mind. However, out of curiosity, he still asked, "Is this your daughter?"

"This is our daughter, Tang Yue." Tang Shengkai introduced, with a barely perceptible pride in his eyes.

The public security officer nodded and gave Tang Yue a thumbs up. "Good job, little girl."

The little girl doesn't look very old. It is another kind of bravery for such a young child to not cry or make a fuss when encountering such a thing.

Tang Yue smiled slightly, having misunderstood. She didn't say much, but she felt relieved. Finally, she didn't have to keep an eye on these little hooligans. The things at home were safe for the time being.

There is one bad thing about this era: the bad guys cannot be dealt with at will, and they feel itchy.

The police took the hooligans away, and Tang Yue's family was also taken to the police station for questioning. Inside the station, the lights were bright, and the air was filled with the smell of paper and ink. The police officers were busy, their eyes focused and serious.

"How did you meet these thugs?" asked a policeman, his eyes sweeping over Tang Yue's family.

Tang Shengkai recounted the events in detail, his account simple and direct, without any personal emotion. He knew that if he exaggerated, the thugs might be punished more severely. But he didn't want to do that.

Cooperate with the police so that they can more fairly punish these hooligans.

The public security officer nodded, acknowledging Tang Shengkai's words. His gaze fell on Tang Yue again, "Little girl, you are very brave. Your courage is worth learning from."

Tang Yue showed a slight smile on her face but did not say anything.

After the interrogation, the police expressed their gratitude to Tang Yue's family and gave them certain rewards.

An elderly officer then pressed a stack of tickets into Tang Shengkai's hands. "This is a reward from the bureau. You deserve it. You must accept it. Your actions have protected more people from these social malignancies."

Several of them have always been the focus of public security, but they have been active in different places and we have never had the opportunity to arrest them. This time we are really thanks to you.

We are truly grateful to your family." The police officer's voice was filled with respect.

Tang Shengkai accepted the reward, feeling a little excited. "Comrade Public Security, you're too polite. This is what we should do. But these people have bad intentions and really need a good lesson."

"We will bring these people to justice, you can rest assured." The public security officer's voice was firm and powerful.

Tang Yue and her family left the police station, their steps relaxed and happy.

The police knew they were going to the border town by night and wanted to drive them back to the train station, but Tang Shengkai refused. They wanted to go out for a walk. Although catching the criminals took up quite a bit of time, the train was leaving too late.

On the way, Tang Shengkai took out the stack of tickets given by the police and shared them among the others. It was quite a lot. Tang Shengkai sighed.

"The Beijing Public Security Bureau is really arrogant. With so many tickets, we should be able to use them for a while."

Tang Yue also looked at some of the tickets. She had no idea what they were for. For example, there was a ticket for a sewing machine, and there was also a ticket for a bicycle. Tang Yue looked confused.

Lin Cuicui put all the tickets away and said, "Third brother, here are quite a few cloth coupons. Let's buy some suitable clothes for the children later."

"Um."

At this moment, Tang Yue pointed to the distance and asked Tang Shengkai, "Dad, what is that?"
