The woman took a few steps back in fright when she saw the handcuffs being taken out; if she were locked up, she would lose her job.
So he quickly begged them, "I was wrong, okay? I'll never do it again, please let me go, I'll lose my job if I go to jail!"
Lu Zhixia, "You don't realize you're wrong, you just know you're finished!"
Zhou An'an said, "Comrade, this kind of person must be arrested, otherwise something terrible will happen sooner or later!"
The law enforcement officer handcuffed the woman and said, "Come on! Come back with me and calm down!"
The woman suddenly knelt down, opening her arms to hug the law enforcement officer's legs.
"I don't want to go! I don't want to go!"
The law enforcement officer took out his whistle and blew it several times, the sound penetrating the crowd, as he summoned his colleagues not far away.
Seeing this, the woman could only turn around and plead with the children, "Please beg for my forgiveness, I promise I won't say anything to you again, you can pick up trash however you want!" Then she gestured with her hands, "All the trash on this street is yours, okay!"
Erni snapped out of her excitement. She didn't want to offend the adults because she had to help her younger siblings make a living on these streets.
Sending this person in is easy, but she'll come out sooner or later, and her family will retaliate. So, they have to look up at the aunt sent by heaven.
"I--"
"Just tell me what you need," Lu Zhixia said.
“I forgive her,” Erni said.
"What if she causes you trouble later?" Lu Zhixia continued to ask.
Erni's eyes lit up with excitement. "Then I'll take my younger siblings to the police station to report this. I can't take it anymore!"
Lu Zhixia patted the little girl's head; this child was lovable.
You're right.
"Auntie, thank you!" Erni said.
Lu Zhixia looked at the few little kids in front of her, all without parents and gathered together, it was so pitiful.
The law enforcement officer said to the handcuffed woman, "Look at them, and then look at how you've handled things. I'm ashamed for you!" He pointed in a circle with his right hand, "Now everyone knows what happened. If anything happens to these kids, you won't escape responsibility!"
The woman pleaded, "I know I was wrong."
The law enforcement officer unlocked the handcuffs. "Alright, go get your injuries treated yourself! Stop making a fool of yourself here, I'm tired of looking at you!"
Once her hands were freed, the woman quickly stood up and squeezed through the crowd; she had lost face terribly that day.
They'll find it back someday. If they go in, they'll lose everything!
The law enforcement officer said to the onlookers, "Alright, stop watching and go about your business!"
Those people then dispersed.
Then the officer walked up to the child and said, "If that woman causes you any more trouble, come to the police station and find me. My surname is Liu. Just mention it to them and they'll know!"
"Thank you, Uncle!" Erni said.
The law enforcement officer patted the little girl on the head, then turned to them and said, "I have other work to do, so let's leave it at that for now. If she retaliates against these children, don't worry, I won't stand idly by."
Zhou An'an: "That's well said! I would have done the same if I had encountered that situation! Well then, comrade, see you next time!"
The man nodded, then turned and left.
Only a few kids were left at the scene. Lu Zhixia noticed their clothes and their thin appearance.
Are you hungry? How about I treat you to something to eat?
Erni said, "No need, Auntie, we can go back and cook."
Lu Zhixia said, "I'll buy you some food at the restaurant up ahead."
Erni waved her hand, "Really, you don't need to do this today, thank you."
Then he bowed deeply, and the children beside him followed suit.
Lu Zhixia thought they were so sensible, and she felt a pang of sympathy. "Little girl, tell me, do you really not have any adults in your family?"
Erni looked up and said, "It's not that we don't have adults, we still have Grandpa."
Upon hearing that her grandfather was there, Lu Zhixia abandoned the idea of taking them away; at least, she couldn't do that now.
At that moment, she noticed the child standing at the very back.
"Did you ever sell ice cream at the train station?"
Sanwa nodded. He had just discovered that the person who stood up for them was the aunt who gave him money at the train station.
"Do you still remember me?" Lu Zhixia asked.
Sanwa slowly stepped forward. "I remember, you bought all my ice cream and even gave me money."
Seeing this, Erni thought that her aunt was the best person in the world. She not only helped her, but also helped Sanwa.
Lu Zhixia said, "I must buy you something. You can't refuse. Can you bear to see me suffer?"
