Chapter 60: Saving a Life from a Knife
The man's eyes were full of bloodshot: "Gu Lingzhi, stop trying to fool me. If you hadn't insisted on harping on the theft at the scrap warehouse, how could things have turned out like this?
If you hadn't insisted on killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, I wouldn't have lost my job, my wife wouldn't have fallen down the stairs while arguing for a divorce, and the baby in her belly wouldn't have been miscarried. If my child is gone, then you should use your grandson to compensate me."
As soon as he said this, the woman lying on the ground cried heartbreakingly, "Please let my son go, he is innocent, he is still so young and will be scared."
The man just laughed crazily and said, "He is young, what about my child?
I will send him down to keep my son company."
After saying that, he moved the knife in his hand directly towards the child's neck.
One look at the man's expression told you he wasn't just talking, and everyone around him held their breath.
Someone tried to rescue him, but the man sensed it immediately and leaned against the wall: "If anyone takes another step forward, I will kill him."
Gu Lingzhi was afraid that he might accidentally hurt his grandson, so he quickly waved his hand to let those who wanted to help back off: "What do you want to stop?"
The man had a determined expression on his face: "Stop, how is that possible?
I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well take this kid with me, at least I won't be alone on the road to the underworld.
The boy who was held hostage by the man was so scared that he cried out: "Grandpa, Mom, save me."
Seeing the man's expression turn bloodthirsty when he heard the boy's cry, Liu Chuxue knew that something was wrong. This man might have really come with the determination to die.
At this moment, there were chaotic footsteps coming from downstairs. The man who held the child hostage naturally heard it, and he became even crazier: "Okay, you dare to call the police, very good."
As he said this, he raised the knife and slashed at the boy imprisoned in his arms.
Just as the woman who had collapsed to the ground opposite him screamed out a heart-wrenching "No", Chu Xue took advantage of the man's last wild laugh and threw the coarse porcelain bowl in her hand out at an extremely fast speed.
At the moment when the knife was about to pierce the boy's heart, the coarse porcelain bowl finally saved him and hit the hostage-taker directly on the head.
Amidst everyone's gasps, the knife in the man's hand fell to the ground first, and then the whole person fell down limply.
The woman on the other side crawled and rolled over, and hugged the crying boy into her arms: "Son, it's okay, it's okay, mom is here, mom is here."
When Deputy Director Gu saw that his grandson was fine, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was so dazed that he almost fell down, but fortunately someone helped him up from behind.
At this time, the police also arrived at the scene: "What's going on?"
Deputy Director Gu quickly stepped forward to negotiate with the police.
It turned out that the man who was knocked unconscious by the bowl was called Cao Xiangguang. Because he was addicted to gambling, he often stole things from the scrap warehouse and resold them.
A few days ago, a unit in a township had an accident because it purchased unqualified parts. The police followed the clues and traced it to their factory. I would have never known the cause of the accident before, but I was shocked when I did.
It's incredible that a lot of things were thrown away from the scrap warehouse.
The factory's security department eventually caught more than a dozen people, and Cao Xiangguang was made an example of by the factory. However, after all, there were loopholes in the factory's management, so he was not held legally responsible, but was directly fired.
Cao Xiangguang went to the factory leaders several times, hoping to ask for a lighter punishment, but the factory leaders replied that if he caused trouble again, he would be directly handed over to the police.
This is how we are seeing today.
