Chapter 254 Saving a Family
The police officer's words immediately made Qin Suisui's heart jump.
While she was in the lab, she didn't have much contact with Hu Jue; they were merely nodding acquaintances. But she also knew that anyone who could enter the military region's special classified laboratory was an extraordinary talent.
She's the team leader for this source tracing operation. What if something happens to Hu Jue? Not only will the organization cause her trouble, but she herself will feel terrible. Hu Jue absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble!
Feeling anxious, Qin Suisui quickly exchanged a glance with Pei Jiuyan. Pei Jiuyan took her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, we don't know what's going on yet. Don't scare yourself. I'll go with you."
Jia Zhenzhen and Ye quickly stood up: "I'll go too!"
They had a lot of luggage, and it was inconvenient for them to squeeze around, so Comrade Zhou Jianguo voluntarily stayed behind to look after the luggage.
The Shashi Railway Station is a central hub of China, with people traveling from the south to the north and from the east to the west passing through it. As a place of great diversity, it also has a high accident rate.
Therefore, Shashi specially set up the police station for this area at the train station, merging it with the original police office at the train station, but most people still prefer to call it the police office.
The police station was right behind the ticket hall, just two minutes away. As soon as Qin Suisui entered, she saw Hu Jue sitting there looking disheveled, with a bandage wrapped around his head and hands, and his clothes were tattered.
Seeing Qin Suisui and the others approaching, he looked somewhat embarrassed, coughed lightly, and turned his back.
"Comrade Qin, right? May I ask what your relationship is with this Comrade Hu?" A police officer in the police station stood up and looked at Qin Suisui.
Qin Suisui quickly shifted her gaze away from Hu Jue: "Hello, police officer. We are colleagues. We are on a business trip and are transiting through Shashi. May I ask what mistake Comrade Hu has made?"
Seeing the nervous look on Qin Suisui's face and hearing her question, the police officer knew she had misunderstood. He smiled and quickly waved his hand, "No, Comrade Hu did not make a mistake. On the contrary, he did a good deed."
After the police officers explained, Qin Suisui learned that Hu Jue had gone to a nearby department store after parting ways with them from the state-run restaurant, intending to buy some local specialty snacks for his daughter.
When I finished shopping and walked to the entrance of the department store, I saw a burly man carrying a little girl of about five years old, walking quickly out.
The little girl was held in his arms with his mouth covered, her eyes filled with fear, tears streaming down her face like beads, her cheeks flushed red.
Even though her mouth was covered, the little girl's sobs were still very loud, which attracted a lot of attention.
The two were accompanied by a woman in her thirties, who smiled and explained to the onlookers, "This is our daughter. She was naughty and got a beating from her dad. She's throwing a tantrum and doesn't want to go home."
The onlookers immediately laughed. What family doesn't have a naughty child? What could be causing a scene in a department store? It's just that the child wants to buy candy and snacks, but the parents don't agree, so they start a tantrum. What family doesn't have such a troublesome brat?
Immediately, everyone dispersed.
Only Comrade Hu Jue sensed something was wrong and bravely rushed forward, blocking the burly man's path: "Let go of this child! You are not this child's parents at all!"
Upon hearing this, the burly man's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Get out of my way! I think you're the human trafficker, trying to steal my daughter!"
Hu Jue naturally wouldn't leave. Not only did he not leave, he also shouted to the onlookers, "They are human traffickers, they are not this little girl's parents at all! Everyone, please help stop them! Call the police!"
The burly man and the woman exchanged a glance when they saw that the people who were about to disperse had gathered again. They decided that it was better to avoid trouble and leave as soon as possible.
Hu Jue realized their intentions and stepped forward to grab the burly man, trying to snatch the little girl from his arms. The woman saw this and quickly came over to pull him away, and the three of them started fighting.
"Comrade Hu Jue was very brave. He single-handedly snatched the child from the two traffickers and protected her. The child was not injured at all. However, she was slightly drugged and has been taken to the hospital."
After the police officer finished speaking, Qin Suisui and the others stood there stunned.
It turns out that Comrade Hu Jue, who was not very sociable and was somewhat picky from the very beginning, was actually such a warm-hearted and brave comrade!
“We originally intended to send Comrade Hu Jue to the hospital as well, as his injuries were quite serious. However, he disagreed, saying he had a mission and needed to catch the 10 o'clock train. So we could only give him some simple disinfection and bandaging. Since he is a traveler from out of town and has no relatives here, we had to ask you to come and sign some documents. This is our procedure. We are very sorry to have delayed you.”
Qin Suisui quickly shook her head: "It's alright, it's alright. Cooperating with your police work is the duty of every citizen! Just sign here, right?"
Only after Qin Suisui signed the document did she lead Hu Jue out of the police station.
Walking along the road, Qin Suisui and Jia Zhenzhen were both somewhat silent. Pei Jiuyan was not a talkative person to begin with, and since the two of them didn't speak, he had even less to say.
Hu Jue felt he had caused trouble for Qin Suisui and the others, so he hung his head, making his already scarred face look even more miserable.
He lowered his head, his voice muffled and tinged with stubbornness: "I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble!"
Qin Suisui looked at him in surprise: "Comrade Hu, what are you saying? You did a good deed, how could it be causing trouble? Do you know that your heroic act saved a family and prevented a little girl's life from tragedy!"
"I should apologize to you. I was wrong to assume you were a difficult person to get along with. I'm very sorry, Comrade Hu. You are a great hero!"
Upon hearing Qin Suisui's words, Hu Jue immediately looked up in surprise, his eyes filled with astonishment: "You're not angry that I caused trouble?"
"How could this be causing trouble! You're doing a good deed, brother!" Jia Zhenzhen happily patted his shoulder, but she forgot that she was strong and Hu Jue was injured. With one slap, Hu Jue sat down on the ground with a thud, looking at her in a daze.
Jia Zhenzhen: ...
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I forgot you were injured!" She quickly stepped forward to help him up. "Are you alright? I'm so sorry! I was just too excited."
Hu Jue gasped for breath and waved his hand, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I just lost my balance for a moment."
Even if it hurts a lot, he can't say it in public. He's a grown man. If he cries out in pain just because a woman pats him, where will his pride be? Hu Jue has pride too!
As I approached the train station entrance, just as I was about to take the pass given to me by the police officer and re-enter the station, a young girl's voice suddenly came from behind me:
"Uncle Hu Jue! Uncle Hu Jue!"
