When Tang Wu led Xia Minmin and Tang Meng all the way to the competition venue, the competition had already begun!
Xia Minmin watched the two people competing on stage, her big eyes shining, it was clear that she really liked this kind of competition.
Tang Wu laughed and said, "How about it? Isn't it better than many coaches at the boxing gym?"
After thinking for a moment, Xia Minmin said, "Uncle Tang, it's different. The boxing gym teaches ordinary people to improve their health, but when it really matters, you still have to run. But your techniques are passed down from practical experience, with more lethal moves that can defeat the enemy in one strike. In real combat, this makes you more likely to survive and win!"
"I didn't expect you to have such profound insights into martial arts!"
A hearty, mellow male voice came from behind.
Xia Minmin and Tang Meng turned to look at the man, only to see him already walking forward. "Director Tang!"
Tang Wu greeted him with a smile, "Director Yan, I thought I misheard you. Weren't you on vacation today? Why are you here too!"
"Mengmeng, Xiaomin, call Uncle Yan."
"Hello, Uncle Yan!"
"Hello, Uncle Yan!"
Director Yan touched each of their heads, then pointed at Tang Meng and said, "Is this your daughter? It's been so many years!"
"Yes, I remember the last time you saw her was twelve years ago in the family compound. It's been ten years since we both left the military."
Director Yan murmured as he watched the performance on stage, "Yes, time really flies!"
While Tang Wu and Director Yan were exchanging pleasantries, Xia Minmin and Tang Meng had already slipped to the front to watch the game.
Watching the match up close is definitely a different experience; you can even hear the sounds of punches hitting flesh.
Tang Meng whispered, "Xiao Min, this is much more exciting than the sparring between our boxing gym coaches!"
"I think so too, this is so interesting! I wonder how many more years I'll need to practice to achieve this effect." Xia Minmin looked at the stage with envy in her heart.
Tang Meng looked at Xia Minmin and said, "I just need to be as good as you. I don't even dare to dream of being on stage."
Xia Minmin patted Tang Meng on the shoulder, "What if our dreams come true? Let's work hard and practice more together!"
The police officers standing around them were amused. Both girls had thin arms and legs, with maybe a little muscle at most, and didn't look like they had studied martial arts at all.
A tall, thin man in a police uniform, who looked quite young, said, "Even if you two trained for twenty or thirty years, you still wouldn't reach this level!"
Xia Minmin looked at him and saw that he seemed like a newcomer with limited fighting skills. "Uncle, don't underestimate a young man's potential."
Tang Meng said, "Exactly, how do you know we're not compatible!"
Upon hearing Xia Minmin's words, the man pointed at her with his finger, "You actually called me uncle! Do I look that old?"
"Uncle, I'm not even eight years old yet. Should I call you brother instead of uncle? And didn't your mother teach you not to point at people with your finger?"
Xia Minmin really dislikes people who look down on others and point their fingers at them.
People around them heard their conversation, but the two children didn't say anything and didn't know why they suddenly started fighting.
"Xiao Liu, what are you doing! Why are you arguing with two children?"
"Xiao Liu, that's not right! The little girl didn't say anything wrong. You're over twenty, what's wrong with her calling you uncle!"
"Exactly! You're incompetent in every aspect of your job, and all you do is bully the weak. Do you even deserve to be a police officer?"
The comments from those around him made Xiao Liu even angrier, so angry that his hand pointing at Xia Minmin was trembling.
Suddenly, Xiao Liu stretched out a hand and slapped Xia Minmin. Before anyone around could react, Xiao Liu's wrist was deformed, probably dislocated.
Xia Minmin said, "Uncle, this is not my fault! You attacked first, I was just defending myself!"
Tang Meng shouted, "That's right! We didn't say anything, and you still want to hit us!"
Upon hearing Tang Meng's voice, Tang Wu quickly stepped forward, "What happened?"
The people around him said, "Director Tang, it's nothing, everyone was just joking around."
Xiao Liu clutched his dislocated hand. "Director Tang, we need to thoroughly investigate these two children of unknown origin. We don't know how they got here! These two little girls are quite formidable. Although they are children, we cannot let our guard down."
The onlookers were disgusted by Xiao Liu's shamelessness.
Someone gave Tang Wu a rough account of what had happened.
Tang Wu said with a dark face, "I brought them in and they've been registered. Do you want to check me too?"
Xiao Liu, with a shameless grin, said, "Chief, I didn't mean that. I didn't know you brought them in. They're truly remarkable for someone you brought in; they're so capable at such a young age."
Those around him covered their mouths and snickered when they saw Xiao Liu's embarrassed expression.
Serves him right! He's never seen doing anything, all he does is flatter. Luckily, the leaders in the bureau are all sensible.
At this moment, Xiao Liu's team leader also came over. "You can't even beat a seven-year-old child, and you still have the nerve to apply for fieldwork?"
Xiao Liu habitually shirked responsibility, saying, "Captain, she attacked me from behind! I just didn't have time to react and that's why I was hit!"
Xiao Liu's captain looked at him with disgust. "With your skills, who in our team would dare to go on a mission with you? You always shirk responsibility when something goes wrong, and you always steal the credit when something good happens. You're useless at everything. I really don't know how you even graduated from police academy!"
Tang Wu clapped his hands. "Go watch the game."
Despite having just experienced something unpleasant, Xia Minmin and Tang Meng were still interested in the competition on stage.
After the competition, Xia Minmin and Tang Meng planned to say goodbye to Tang Wu and go home.
Tang Wu said, "You two really aren't eating here? Our food should be pretty good today!"
"No, Dad. Let's go back and eat! Your family's meals are rationed, and if we eat there, others might go hungry."
"Alright, then you guys be careful on your way back, don't meddle in other people's business, and call me when you get home."
"knew."
After saying goodbye to Tang Wu, the two went to the bus stop to wait for the bus.
Xia Minmin: "We two really had a tough day today!"
Tang Meng had a good impression of the police because of Tang Wu. "It's true, I thought encountering a thief was troublesome enough, but I didn't expect there to be a scoundrel among the police! I'm so angry!"
Xia Minmin tiptoed to stroke Tang Meng's fur, "Don't be angry, there's no need to get angry over a scoundrel. With his lack of professional skills, he'll be eliminated sooner or later."
Tang Meng pretended to be angry, "Xia Minmin, do you remember I'm older than you? Be careful or I'll hit you!"
"Hehe, you can't beat me!"
Xia Minmin hit her right where it hurt. Yes, Tang Meng was still a beginner and couldn't beat Xia Minmin right now, so she could only stare at her fiercely.
When Xia Minmin saw the bus arrive, she quickly pulled Tang Meng onto the bus. There weren't many people on the bus, so the two of them found seats.
"Come to my house for lunch today? Your parents aren't home anyway!"
"Great! It's been so long since I've had Aunt Mei's cooking, I really miss it."
After lunch, Tang Meng went home for a nap, as she had English tutoring in the afternoon.
Xia Minmin stayed home to preview her first-year junior high school textbooks, and in the evening, Xia Xiaomei and Xiaowu treated everyone to dinner.
