Chapter 337 If you can do it, come and ask me
At the same time, Shen City Bus Station.
There were a few people in the waiting hall, some lying down or sitting, either sleeping or daydreaming.
Almost no one spoke.
But there was such a figure, as thin as a paper man, with a sallow face that if you didn't know, you would think he had hepatitis.
The woman's hair was tied neatly and her clothes were clean, but very ordinary. However, the child in her arms and the small blanket she was wrapped in were obviously made of extraordinary materials.
She rocked the child gently, and from time to time she would touch the little guy's face with hers.
No matter who you look at her, she is a mother who loves her children very much.
But if you look closely, you can see the panic in her eyes. She seems to be in a hurry and keeps looking at the big clock hanging high on the wall at the station.
“Wow wow—”
Suddenly, in the quiet hall, the sound of a baby crying suddenly rang out.
At first everyone thought that the child was hungry and that the mother could just feed him.
But later everyone discovered that the mother did not feed the child, but just walked back and forth in the corner, coaxing the child softly.
But the child didn't buy it and continued to cry loudly no matter how she coaxed him.
The loud voice turned hoarse at the end, and many people couldn't stand it and wanted to go over to ask.
Just at this moment, four or five police officers in uniform walked in with sharp eyes.
…
In the ward.
The place was full of people at this time.
Even Zhang Xiumei was called over by Lin Shan to help look for the child.
Everyone searched the hospital upside down, but no suspicious person was found.
Zhang Yulan has lost her temper. She beat her daughter severely, and she fainted from crying. Now she is lying in bed and receiving oxygen.
She wondered how she would face her son and daughter-in-law if she could never find the child.
Fu Yiyi knelt beside the bed, crying and apologizing: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry I shouldn't have fallen asleep..."
Gu Wanxing didn't know what to do. Should she complain? Of course she would, because when she was at home, she often talked about the story of children being lost in the hospital.
Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law also thought this was a serious matter. Plus, she had a cousin, so she felt that such a low-probability event would not happen to her.
It is beautiful to imagine.
It really happened to her.
Now she can only pray that the police can find the family.
Yes, after the police's questioning and investigation, several nurses and family members talked about a woman and asked about their family affairs in the past few days.
And this woman gave birth to a baby girl who died on the day Gu Wanxing was admitted to the hospital.
Fortunately, the hospital has medical records and address.
In the early years, due to incomplete address registration and the lack of ID cards for medical treatment, many human traffickers stole children.
So now the hospital registration is also being gradually improved.
There is a mandatory requirement that an ID card is required for hospitalization.
"Don't cry, Yiyi, sister-in-law wants to be quiet."
Gu Wanxing felt like his head was about to explode and just wanted to wait quietly for news.
"Okay, I won't cry anymore." Fu Yiyi stood up, walked to the window sobbing, and sat there silently.
But she looked as if she was about to break, and there were slap marks from her mother on her fair face.
This is the first time I’ve been beaten since I was a child.
But she felt that she deserved to be beaten. She wished she didn't want to live anymore. She had no face to live. She was so stupid.
As time passed, the cries and exhortations in the ward gradually turned into silence.
Everyone was waiting for news anxiously, their expressions numb.
Finally, at around six o'clock in the morning, Gu Wanxing's cell phone rang.
The moment we answered the phone, everyone held their breath.
It wasn't until the police's steady voice came over the phone that everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Really? Thank you, thank you, thank you so much."
Gu Wanxing cried with joy, and only after hanging up the phone did she burst into tears.
She didn't know why she was crying, but the taut string suddenly relaxed and she couldn't help but want to vent.
She didn't cry even when her mother-in-law fainted from crying. Her sister-in-law and younger sister kept crying, but she couldn't cry. She only shed tears secretly when she first heard that the child was gone.
But I really can't hold it anymore at this moment.
"Alright, alright, stop crying. Do you still want your eyes?"
Zhang Xiumei's heart was still in her throat. This was the first time she heard that there were people stealing babies in the hospital.
My sisters also got into trouble.
It's so scary. I can't imagine what would happen to the sisters if this child was really lost. Their beautiful life has just begun.
"Wanxing, lie down and take a rest. Mom will go to the police station right away."
Zhang Yulan smoothed her hair, calmed her excitement, pulled out the two tubes in her nose, and said.
"No need to go. The police are on their way here. Just make the milk powder. The little one must be hungry and keeps crying."
Gu Wanxing heard it all on the phone.
When the police arrived, the doctor had already started his ward rounds.
From the time I received the call until now, an hour and a half has passed, which is more torturous than the entire second half of the night.
When the child was handed to Gu Wanxing, he had stopped crying.
They said they fed him some water because they couldn’t find milk powder at the moment.
Gu Wanxing took the child and began to cry silently again. She quickly opened the child's swaddle and saw that it was wet with urine.
With the help of my mother-in-law, I changed the child's diaper.
Only then will you be able to listen to the police.
The public security comrades said that the woman who stole the child was also pitiful.
Although it was her first time, it is reasonable to say that she is a human trafficker.
The police pushed the issue to Gu Wanxing.
If they pursue the matter, she will definitely be convicted. If they are willing to show leniency, the police station will criticize and educate the woman who stole the child.
The most important thing is that after the police learned about the woman's situation and the reason why she stole the child, they all felt very sympathetic towards her.
Naturally, the police also told Gu Wanxing and the others about the woman's deeds.
It is said that the woman's eldest son fell into the river and drowned when he was eight years old. She also has a little daughter at home who is only three years old this year. The baby in her belly is a posthumous child. Her husband is an electrician who was electrocuted while repairing electricity in the village.
However, her mother-in-law wanted to kick her and her daughter out because of the little funeral expenses given by the brigade and the government.
A woman has no mother's home, so if she is driven out, she will have no way to survive.
The brigade stepped in to mediate, and the evil mother-in-law said that if the baby was a boy, she would not have driven the mother and daughter away.
But the problem now is that she fell while working in the fields and was sent to the hospital by the villagers. She gave birth to a stillborn baby. The hospital also issued relevant medical records. When this person came, the B-ultrasound showed that the baby was already stillborn.
This is why I had thoughts that I shouldn’t have.
After the young policeman finished telling the woman's story with sympathy in his eyes, he looked at Gu Wanxing with hope.
Gu Wanxing slowly raised his head: "I'm sorry I can't empathize with you."
The two policemen exchanged glances, and the one telling the story continued, "Comrade Gu, we're not asking you to empathize with us. We just wanted to ask. The child is fine. What do you think..."
"If someone steals your child, and you say you'll let the thief go, come back and ask me when you can do it."
Gu Wanxing said with a blank expression and a slightly cold tone.
Originally, she was thinking of making a few banners for the police station and donating five motorcycles to them as a thank you, but she didn't expect it to save her money.
Judging from the incident with Gu Yuerou, they have tried their best several times. The slogans of "Serving the People" in the police station are so clear and are all gold-plated. Is this how they serve the people?
Why should she let go of the person who hurt her? If she can't find him, who will pay for the consequences?
If sympathy can let the criminals go, then what is the point of the police doing their job?
