“Even if what you’re saying is true, you can’t treat him like this. He did break the law, but he still has human rights until the verdict is in court.” The girl looked like a saint: “You can’t treat him like this.”
“Young lady, you don’t understand this kind of person. You can’t be kind to someone like him,” Zhang Qiao said. “Everything we did was legal and compliant…”
"Then why don't you give him anything to eat?" The girl still had a saintly look on her face: "Which of your rules says prisoners can't eat?"
"No, we just got on the bus after eating. This bastard is deliberately causing trouble." An officer in plainclothes was furious: "He's a criminal, a child trafficker. Why should we be lenient with someone like him?"
"I said, he committed a crime, but you can't take away his rights." The girl stood on moral high ground: "Now I condemn your actions, and I have the right to expose everything I saw to the public. You police officers used excessive force and abused prisoners..."
"You..." The young plainclothes officer was furious and was about to step forward to argue, but Zhang Qiao stopped him.
"Alright, buy him a boxed lunch." Zhang Qiao said, "Xiao Zhao, sit down and keep an eye on Liu Fugui. Make sure nothing goes wrong."
Helpless, the police officer named Xiao Zhao had no choice but to pay out of his own pocket to buy a boxed lunch for Liu Fugui before sitting down.
The girl with the saintly look on her face said triumphantly to Liu Fugui, as if she had won a battle: "Don't be afraid. I'm a law student named Li Jing. Even if you break the law, you still have your rights. If the police dare not act according to the law, you can file a complaint against them."
"Ah, I understand, thank you, young lady." Liu Fugui said gratefully.
"You're welcome, it's what I should do." Li Jing sat down smugly, picked up a mirror and began to put on makeup.
Ye Xingchen glanced at Li Jing and mentally muttered two words: "Saintly Mother".
That's right, the theory in apocalyptic novels that the saintly mother should be killed first in chaotic times is absolutely correct.
Take Li Jing in front of us, for example. Is she really righteous? No, she's just showing off her education and trying to impress the police and demonstrate her superiority.
She didn't care what Liu Fugui had done or what he had committed that would anger both heaven and man.
If this happened in a post-apocalyptic world, she would definitely be considered a saint; if she weren't kicked out of the team, she might drag everyone down with her.
"Take off my handcuffs."
Before we even started eating, this guy was already causing trouble again.
"Liu Fugui, you fucking went too far!" Xiao Zhao roared, "This bastard really dared to push his luck."
"How can I eat with my hands cuffed? That young lady is right. Even if I'm a prisoner, you still have to give me the corresponding human rights, right?" Liu Fugui said with his usual roguish expression.
“Yeah, just because he’s a prisoner doesn’t mean you can mistreat him. He has human rights.” Li Jing immediately got excited again, and she picked up her phone to record a video: “Do you believe I’ll record you and post it online?”
“The handcuffs cannot be removed during the prisoner’s transport. This is our rule. If you have any objections, go and complain to us now.” Zhang Qiao frowned, suppressing his anger. “Also, young lady, I don’t know why you’ve been siding with this prisoner, but if you knew what he’s done, you would know he’s a heinous scoundrel.”
"I don't care what he did, I'm not on anyone's side, I'm only on the side of the rules." Li Jing shouted into her phone, "He is a prisoner, that's true, but he also needs to eat. How is he supposed to eat with his hands cuffed?"
“These are our rules. If you want to complain, go ahead,” Zhang Qiao said coldly. “But if you interfere with our normal escort and law enforcement procedures, I won’t be polite to you.”
"Can the police threaten people like this? Fine, I'll remember this. I'm calling to file a complaint against you right now," Li Jing said through gritted teeth.
"This... Li Jing, right?" Ye Xingchen couldn't take it anymore. He turned his head and said, "From Jinling Law School?"
“That’s right, who are you?” Li Jing looked at Ye Xingchen with hostility.
“I’m not that person, I’m just a passerby, but I want to ask, didn’t anyone tell you that you’re a saint?” Ye Xingchen turned her head and said.
"What do you mean?" Li Jing was furious, and her face darkened.
"It's nothing. This kid committed a crime, and the police enforced the law. There's nothing wrong with that. On the contrary, you've been holding your phone and standing on the moral high ground to condemn the police. Isn't that being a saint?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"I'm upholding justice, I..."
"Stop explaining. This has absolutely nothing to do with upholding justice. You're just showing off and trying to be tough in front of the police." Ye Xingchen said calmly, "I think universities shouldn't just look at grades when admitting students. They should look at whether a person's moral character meets the standards."
"Someone like you, who studies law, is so unable to distinguish right from wrong and only wants to show off. I ask you, when you enter society in the future, will you really be able to distinguish right from wrong and uphold justice?"
“I…” Li Jing tried to explain.
"So your father sent you to a higher education institution to study law, not to punish criminals and uphold justice, but to let you find loopholes in the law and stand up for evildoers?" Ye Xingchen interrupted her.
"Yes, this human trafficker deserves to be torn to pieces, and you're still defending him? You must be blind."
"Heh, nowadays people can just grab their phones and stand on a moral high ground to condemn others indiscriminately."
"A high-achieving student? The school's admissions department must be blind. Such a student will only bring trouble to society in the future."
"The police are right, so why is this woman siding with the human traffickers?"
"They're in cahoots, I suggest investigating..."
The few people in the carriage couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to criticize Li Jing.
Li Jing was dumbfounded; she hadn't expected her actions to have provoked public outrage.
"Eat it or don't, it's up to you. If you don't want it, throw it in the trash. You can't get these handcuffs off." Xiao Zhao said angrily.
With the understanding of the crowd, the police officers finally felt relieved.
Liu Fugui quieted down. He picked up his chopsticks, stirred the food a few times, and then cursed, "Is this fit for human consumption? Garbage..."
As he spoke, he slammed the lunchbox down and knocked it to the ground.
"You..." Xiao Zhao was furious and raised his hand to strike, but Zhang Qiao quickly stopped him.
Xiao Zhao had no choice but to stop; he knew that it was wrong to make a move on a train in front of so many people.
"I need to go to the toilet." Liu Fugui stood up again.
"Take him there." Zhang Qiao's face darkened. This bastard knew exactly when not to do anything to him in public, and now he was getting more and more outrageous.
Xiao Zhao and another police officer stood up and pulled the boy towards the restroom.
Liu Fugui certainly wasn't going to the restroom; his frantic attempts to cause trouble were all in an attempt to find a way to escape.
