As soon as the owner of the bun shop turned around, two buns were missing from the steamer. It must have been stolen by this poor guy.
The ferocious bun shop owner grabbed Xiao Jingyu's wrist tightly and said, "Hurry up and take it out, you thief."
"I didn't steal your buns, don't slander me." Xiao Jingyu confronted angrily.
She struggled hard to break free from the bun shop owner's restraints, but she was no match for the strength of an adult man.
"Let me go. I said I didn't steal." Xiao Jingyu couldn't break free and began to feel a little scared.
"You said you didn't steal it, so you didn't steal it. I don't believe it. How could it be gone in just a moment? You were the only one here just now. Who else could it be but you?"
The loud cursing attracted many people around.
"No way? He's so young, and he's already a thief."
"How could it not be? Thieves nowadays start out this young."
"No way, this child looks only four or five years old, it's impossible."
"Of course not. Judging from his appearance, he must be a little beggar. He has nothing to eat, so he has no choice but to steal."
The bun shop owner took the discussions of the people around him to heart.
"Okay, so you are a little beggar without a father or a mother. No wonder you steal things."
"I didn't steal your buns. I was wrongly accused. I'm not a beggar. I have a father."
Xiao Jingyu's feeling of being wronged and gossiped about had reached its peak, and the two continued to quarrel.
[Questor, the main storyline has begun. Rescue Xiao Jingyu and change the ending of being beaten to death. Please rush to the scene immediately.]
"What? The main storyline has started. Isn't Xiao Jingyu at home? Why is he in town?"
Lin Shuang couldn't believe what the system said, but now was not the time to think about it.
The main thing now is to rush over there immediately, otherwise the outcome of being beaten to death will not change, and his mission will be declared a failure.
"Where?"
Lin Shuang had an anxious look on her face, which made the three children feel uneasy and they stood up immediately.
"The map has been loaded. Just follow the red line on the map."
"good."
"I'm going out for a while. You guys stay here and don't run around. I'll come back to pick you up."
Lin Shuang walked straight out the door, saying this and walked away quickly.
"Mom, I'm going too."
Finally, the three of them went together.
As soon as I walked out the door, I met Mei Lan coming from the backyard.
"Sister, where are you going? I've already prepared the meal.
You've caused me so much trouble." Mei Lan pretended to be unhappy.
"Sister Lan, things are urgent. I'll be back later. I have something important to do now."
As Lin Shuang apologized, Mei Lan could clearly see the anxiety on her face. It was not fake at all.
She immediately put away her expression and said, "Sister, I'll bring someone with you. If my sister needs help, I must help her."
Mei Lan immediately called a few servants, all of whom were martial artists.
"Come on, you lead the way, we'll go quickly."
Although he didn't know what the matter was, Mei Lan had already thought of a corresponding way to deal with it. Although he was not among the upper class, he was more than capable of dealing with some insignificant people.
"good."
The three children were still too young and ran too slowly.
"You guys, hold them, hurry up." Mei Lan directly asked the servants to hold Xiao Nanxin and Xiao Wangshu. Xiao Ce could barely keep up with Lin Shuang's pace.
The two children were carried by the servants and ran much faster. In a short while, they arrived at the street.
What they saw was that people around were watching the excitement, and in the middle was the ferocious bun shop owner beating Xiao Jingyu. Xiao Jingyu kept crying and shouting, "I didn't steal, I have a father."
"Stop!" Lin Shuang rushed to the bun shop owner as fast as she could and kicked him, and the bun shop owner took a few steps back.
Lin Shuang picked up Xiao Jingyu and rushed straight to the clinic.
"Sister Lan, please report the case to the court and ask the impartial county magistrate to clear my Jing Yu's name. Stop him and don't let him get away."
"Okay, sister, don't worry, I will take care of it." Mei Lan looked serious and nodded heavily.
Several servants also surrounded the bun shop owner, not giving him a chance to escape.
Lin Shuang ran straight to the clinic, and Xiao Ce, Xiao Wangshu, and Xiao Nanxin burst into tears.
They didn't expect that their third brother would become like this. Seeing Xiao Jingyu being beaten terribly, they were very worried about his injuries. They automatically followed Lin Shuang and ran all the way to the clinic.
"Doctor, doctor, please come quickly. My son is seriously injured. Please treat him quickly." Lin Shuang's face looked very ugly at the moment, with panic and unknown fear.
Xiao Jingyu in Lin Shuang's arms fainted the moment she hugged him.
"I'm coming, don't worry." A slightly older man with a beard and some white hair came immediately with a medicine box.
"Doctor, please hurry up. The child is badly injured." Lin Shuang shouted anxiously.
The doctor immediately began to check the injuries on Xiao Jingyu's body, and started to clean and apply medicine.
After working for a while, he said, "Okay, the injury isn't particularly serious. Luckily you brought him here in time. This guy was pretty strong."
"Thank you, doctor. I have already reported this to the government. I will definitely not tolerate this matter."
Lin Shuang's face was full of cruelty, but Doctor Yun didn't think it was a big deal. The child had been beaten like this, and it would be foolish to let such a person go.
"Doctor, you may be asked to come forward to testify about the child's injuries later." Lin Shuang said politely to Doctor Yun.
"Okay, I will definitely testify for you on this matter."
Doctor Yun's eyes were clear and firm, and he stroked his beard.
"Stepmother, what happened to my third brother? Why hasn't he woken up yet?" Xiao Nanxin cried and touched Xiao Jingyu with heartache.
Xiao Ce clenched his hands into fists at his sides, and the anger on his face was obvious.
"Third brother." Xiao Wangshu also stayed by Xiao Jingyu's side like Xiao Nanxin.
Doctor Yun went to take care of his own business, and Lin Shuang was communicating with the system.
[Ding, congratulations to the tasker for completing the task, changing the main storyline, saving Xiao Jingyu, and receiving a reward of 10,000 points, 10 kilograms of ice powder seeds, a fruit tree, and a fragment of the resurrection pill.
"Tasker, I'll be nice to you." The system changed its voice to a cheesy one, completely different from its original aloof voice.
"Ten thousand points is indeed generous, but I need you to explain this fragment to me." Lin Shuang's gritted teeth made the system successfully shrink and remain silent.
"Well, didn't I tell you that you can only get these points if you complete the mission? It's not up to me to decide. Even these 10,000 points were obtained by me fighting for you with the leadership. You can't be so heartless."
The system's crying voice kept echoing in Lin Shuang's mind.
