"Alright, let's go then!" Xia Wan's lips curled slightly as she picked up the wanted criminal man with one hand and gestured for the girl to lead the way.
Zhu Yuqing's expression froze for a moment: "You...you're quite strong."
She was starting to wonder if it was a mistake to let this woman take her home.
Can those few people in her family really handle her?
Her expression kept changing, but she quickly made up her mind. No matter what, this person was her lifeline!
"that……"
Zhu Yuqing hesitated, as if she wanted to say something, but Xia Wan looked at her in confusion: "What? You don't need me to take you anymore?"
"No... um... my name is Zhu Yuqing, what's your name?"
Xia Wan raised an eyebrow and said meaningfully, "I am Xia Wan, remember that!"
This girl can't hide anything on her face, I don't know what she's up to by deliberately leading her home!
Zhu Yuqing smiled but didn't say anything more, only lowered her head and walked forward.
As luck would have it, the route she led happened to pass by the police station.
Xia Wan called out to her, "Wait, let's hand this scoundrel over to the police first, so we don't have to carry him around all the way!"
Without waiting for Zhu Yuqing's reaction, he dragged her into the police station.
Of course, Xia Wan only said that she caught the man while he was being a hooligan, and then mentioned it to the police officer who was receiving him.
"By the way, officer, I also overheard this guy telling the thugs he was with that he'd been wanted for so long and was living a good life, so the police definitely wouldn't be able to catch him! This guy..."
The police officer nodded earnestly: "I understand, young man. Don't worry, we will investigate thoroughly. Now, you need to come with me to give a statement!"
"Okay." Xia Wan nodded cooperatively: "However, the girl who was bullied earlier is still outside, and there are a few other thugs in the alley next to the supply and marketing cooperative!"
"Okay, we understand!" The police officer nodded, gave a few instructions to his colleague, and then took her to give a statement.
Xia Wan's statement was taken smoothly, but Zhu Yuqing, who had just been called in by the police, did not have such a smooth process!
It might involve wanted criminals, so the officers taking their statements are all experienced veteran police officers!
After asking Zhu Yuqing a few questions, the police officers noticed that she spoke hesitantly and was obviously hiding something, so the time for taking her statement had to be extended!
Fortunately, those thugs who were left in the alley were brought over quickly!
After interrogating the thugs, it was discovered that they were hired by Zhu Yuqing, but the deal fell through and the thugs became lustful, which led to the scene Xia Wan witnessed!
After the thugs confessed, Zhu Yuqing was so frightened that she immediately told them the whole story!
It turned out that Zhu Yuqing's parents planned to sell her to someone in the mountains to be a wife.
She definitely disagreed, but her parents had taken money from someone else, and that person had already come knocking on their door. Zhu Yuqing was timid and selfish, so in order to protect herself, she made a deal with the buyer: she would find someone to marry into the mountains in her place.
That way, his parents wouldn't have to pay back the money, and those people wouldn't continue to cause them trouble!
The other party gave her the whole day; if she could bring the person back, the matter would be over.
If she couldn't take Xia Wan back, he would have to marry into the mountains himself. So after Xia Wan saved her, Zhu Yuqing had other ideas and planned to take Xia Wan home.
Xia Wan is strong, so it would be better if she could deal with those people. If she can't, she can go to the mountains in her place.
Although Zhu Yuqing has ulterior motives, she is incapable of lying; all her thoughts are written on her face.
So when she asked Xia Wan to take her home, Xia Wan had already noticed something was wrong with her expression.
Xia Wan knew there was something going on, so she thought that since the girl was so persistent, she might as well cooperate and maybe even earn some points.
However, while points are valuable, life is even more precious, and she couldn't risk her life.
I can't go with Zhu Yuqing without any preparation. She's strong, but she's not invincible.
So when she brought the wanted criminal to the police station, she casually mentioned Zhu Yuqing.
Taking a statement later, Zhu Yuqing gave herself away; all of this was part of Xia Wan's plan.
Xia Wan had no idea that those thugs were actually hired by Zhu Yuqing herself.
Moreover, the two sides started fighting each other because the money wasn't paid in full.
If I had known... if I had known she would fight those thugs too, I wouldn't have wanted to lose points!
When the police told Xia Wan what had happened, Xia Wan was filled with surprise and anger, and immediately raised her hand to slap Zhu Yuqing.
"I saved you, and you want to sell me? The farmer and the snake have become a reality today!"
[Congratulations, host, you have earned 1 point from Zhu Yuqing's contribution, bringing your total to 77 points. Please keep up the good work!]
Xia Wan pouted speechlessly: "How come it's only one point? Did I interrupt him while he was doing something bad, so he contributed fewer points?"
"Hey, hey, young man, what are you doing? Don't be impulsive, this isn't the place for you to fight!"
The police officers made a token attempt to stop her a few times, but seeing that Xia Wan had no intention of making any further moves, they said nothing more.
Xia Wan pretended to be aggrieved and said to the police, "I'm sorry, officers. I got too excited. I shouldn't have hit you. I believe you will handle this matter well and won't let a brave citizen like me suffer any injustice."
The police officer was taken aback, thinking to himself that this young girl was quite shameless, praising herself without blushing at all.
Xia Wan was in a good mood today because she got points, so she didn't linger here. Besides, Old Xia was still waiting in the ward. If she didn't go back for a long time, Old Xia would probably worry.
After the statements were taken, there was nothing more for her to do. Xia Wan said goodbye to the police officers and left.
When she returned to the ward with the food she had just bought, Xia Jianguo had been anxiously waiting for her for a long time.
Xia Jianguo was very worried because his daughter had been away for a long time and was in an unfamiliar place.
"Dad, were you waiting long? I ran into some trouble on the way back and I'm late! Are you hungry? Look, I bought you dumplings, pork and scallion filling." Xia Wan waved the aluminum lunchbox in her hand!
When Xia Jianguo heard that she had encountered trouble on the way, his heart tightened, and he frowned and asked, "What happened? Were you in danger? Don't go out to buy food anymore. It's fine to buy something at the hospital cafeteria."
"It's nothing serious, just ran into a few thugs. I'm strong and I've learned some kung fu, so I was able to handle them." Xia Wan glossed over the matter in a few words, without mentioning the wanted criminals or human traffickers at all.
Knowing that she was alright, Xia Jianguo relaxed a little, but he still kept reminding her, "Be careful when you're out and about. Don't go to places that are sparsely populated; it's not safe."
Today's meal was indeed bought from the cafeteria, since we spent too much time outside.
Although the food at state-run restaurants is delicious, the wait is long! To save time, Xia Wan went directly to the hospital cafeteria for her meal.
However, I earned quite a few points this time, enough to buy Lao Xia two cans of adult milk powder to help him recover.
