Chapter 60 This Child is a Blessed One
Gu Yuehuai hugged Yan Shaotang tightly, raised his head and stared at the two burly men with cold eyes.
The sturdy man's eyes flickered, he looked at his accomplice, and slowly stepped back.
Gu Yuehuai suddenly said, "Please everyone keep an eye on these two kidnappers so that we can have an explanation when the police arrive."
Hearing this, the crowd spontaneously blocked the door. Everyone looked at the two sturdy men with disgust. Such people should be put in jail and never released for the rest of their lives. Otherwise, it would be a sin!
The sturdy man's eyes turned fierce, and he said sternly: "A bunch of nosy trash! Get out of here!"
As he said this, he reached out and pushed the crowd.
There were many fearful people around. Seeing the two kidnappers' ferocious looks, they couldn't help shrinking their necks and thinking to themselves, the child wasn't lost anyway, so why stop them? What if he got hurt?
As he was thinking this, a gap appeared in the crowd. Two sturdy men sneered and walked out.
The old man at the consignment shop frowned and said, "Get your weapons ready! Stop them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several guys from the consignment shop methodically took out the "stuff" behind the counter. All of them were sticks as thick as a baby's arm. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two strong men ran away!
As soon as they ran out, one of them was grabbed tightly by the legs by a young man.
The sturdy man was sweating profusely, and his fists rained down on the man's back: "You want to die? I'll grant your wish!"
The other man was quite loyal and did not run away. He even tried hard to pry the man's arm apart. However, due to this delay, the guys in the consignment shop rushed out with their weapons and surrounded the two men.
"You are a bunch of kidnappers and a cancer! You can't run away!" The young man's face turned pale and his hands were shaking in pain.
Gu Yuehuai carried Yan Shaotang out and saw the young man who was beaten up for his bravery.
If he hadn't realized that the two strong men were kidnappers and shouted loudly, she would not have gone over.
If she was not mistaken, he was the man who had just sold the watch at the consignment shop.
After some maneuvering by the guys from the consignment shop, the two strong men could no longer escape. After a fierce fight, they finally tied up the two kidnappers. They just had to wait for the police to arrive and explain the situation.
The appraiser at the consignment shop was a kind-hearted man. Seeing the young man lying on the ground with his body hunched over like a shrimp, he personally helped him back to the consignment shop to rest and poured him a glass of water.
The young man took a breath, looked at Gu Yuehuai, and asked with concern: "Then... is the little girl okay?"
Gu Yuehuai shook her head and lowered her eyes to look at Yan Shaotang who was already asleep in her arms. The little girl's face was a little dirty and her clothes were torn in several places, which showed that she had suffered a lot along the way.
If she hadn't happened to see it this time, I don't know where she would have been sold to.
However, it must be a very remote place, otherwise it would not have been found in the previous life.
Gu Yuehuai raised his eyes to look at the young man sitting on the small notepad: "Thank you comrade, if you hadn't stepped forward, I'm afraid my sister would never be found. What's your name? I will definitely come to thank you."
The young man felt a little embarrassed. As soon as he raised the corner of his lips, he pulled the wound and grimaced in pain.
He shook his head: "You're welcome, it's my duty."
Gu Yuehuai was startled, then smiled: "If you don't even know the name of your benefactor, wouldn't that be too heartless?"
Hearing the word "benefactor", the man scratched his head, coughed lightly, and whispered: "Cheng Ling."
Gu Yuehuai nodded: "Comrade Cheng, thank you very much. My name is Gu Yuehuai, and this is my relative's sister Yan Shaotang. Shaotang suffered brain damage due to a fever since childhood. I didn't expect that she would be targeted by someone with ulterior motives."
Cheng Ling waved his hand: "Comrade Gu, you don't have to be so polite. I just happened to run into you."
After saying that, he glanced at Yan Shaotang again and sighed, "Shaotang is so cute and you can tell at a glance that he is from a good family. How could he follow those two people? I saw that they had no experience in taking care of children and their actions were extremely rude. Only then did I discover the clues. It's a blessing that we can find the child back. Otherwise, it would be..."
Gu Yuehuai nodded and hugged Yan Shaotang, who was sleeping soundly, tighter.
The old man at the consignment shop looked at Yan Shaotang and said with a smile: "This child is very lucky."
She must be blessed with a good life, otherwise she would have been sold to some remote mountain village where she would have been helpless. What's more, she is not very smart and cannot save herself. I'm afraid she would have been tortured for the rest of her life.
Gu Yuehuai pursed his lips and said, "Master, can you get my sister's photo back?"
The old master nodded and walked out of the consignment shop. The two strong men who were tied up outside were surrounded by three layers of people, and people who passed by came to join in the fun.
"Hmph." The old master took the photo from his pocket and snorted coldly at the beggar.
Gu Yuehuai had just taken the photo handed over by the old master when the police arrived.
Both policemen were wearing navy blue police uniforms and wide-brimmed hats. The hat badges were round with a red background and the national emblem embossed in the center.
The old master went out to negotiate with the police. One person was responsible for asking questions and the other was responsible for recording the words. Soon, the police walked up to Gu Yuehuai and said, "Comrade, there are a few things we need to ask in detail. Please come with us to the police station."
Gu Yuehuai nodded: "Okay."
The police officer looked at Cheng Ling again and said, "Comrade, I heard that you were the first to find the two kidnappers MLZL. Please go there as well."
When Cheng Ling was about to speak, Gu Yuehuai said, "He is injured."
The police officer was stunned, and then looked at Cheng Ling with admiration: "You are really a good comrade who is brave enough to do what is right. How about this, you go to the hospital to see a doctor first, and then go to the police station to take a statement if there is nothing serious."
Cheng Ling paused and shook his head: "I don't need to go to the hospital, let's go."
Gu Yuehuai glanced at him and knew that he was short of money and wanted to save money for going to the hospital.
She looked at the policeman and said in a heavy tone, "Comrade policeman, those two kidnappers injured someone, so shouldn't they pay for this comrade to go to the hospital? Otherwise, who will stand up to him in the future without fear of danger?"
Cheng Ling looked at Gu Yuehuai with some surprise, and then a touch of emotion flashed across his eyes.
The police officer hesitated for a moment, turned around and discussed with his colleagues, and said, "Comrade, I will go to the hospital with you. The police station cannot let the heroic comrades who have done good things feel disappointed."
Gu Yuehuai smiled and gave the police a thumbs up: "You are really the model police officers of our Zhoulan City!"
As soon as she said this, the people around her echoed and applauded thunderously.
The police handcuffed the two beggars. Gu Yuehuai picked up his basket, carried Yan Shaotang on his back and followed, while Cheng Ling followed another policeman to the hospital.
Afterwards, this case of kidnapping and trafficking a girl made the headlines of Zhoulan City’s newspapers that day.
I heard that Qingliu State-owned Consignment Store also received a certificate of commendation from the police station for "bravery and willingness to help others."
Of course, these are all later stories, so we won’t discuss them for now.
