"Knocked out?" Hu Qing was taken aback and couldn't help but take a few steps toward the dark figure.
Hu Qing suddenly realized that apart from her face hurting, she didn't feel any pain anywhere else.
Hu Qing: I wasn't... Sister He clearly said the first time would hurt a lot, but I'm fine?
"I'm okay! I'm okay!!! Hahaha, that's great! I'm okay!!!"
"What do you mean, nothing's wrong?" Mei Si thought that Sister Hu was sick, crying and laughing intermittently, somewhat like that madman in Anwu Hutong.
"Sisi, thank you so much! You're my savior! Mua~!" Hu Qing turned around, hugged Mei Si, and gave her a big kiss.
"Sister Hu, shouldn't we report this to the police?" Mei Si decided to ignore Sister Hu's unpredictable behavior. She felt that the most important thing now was to report this to the police as soon as possible.
"Report it to the police? Yes! Report it to the police!! I will make sure he is executed!"
Hu Qing nodded, staring intently at the dark figure by the wall.
"No! No! I can't report it! I absolutely can't report it!" Having confirmed she was alright and her mind was clear, Hu Qing suddenly realized she absolutely couldn't report it!
Hu Qing still wants to get married. She already has someone she likes. If she reports the case, not only will her reputation be ruined, but she and Guo Ming will never be able to be together again.
Hu Qing: Guo Ming's family is so particular, they already look down on me. If they knew I almost got... No, this absolutely cannot get out!!
"Why not? The teacher said that if there are bad people, we must report them to the police!" Mei Si frowned, not understanding why Sister Hu didn't want to report the crime. How could they catch bad people if they didn't report it?
"Sisi, listen to your sister, you absolutely cannot report this to the police, and you must not tell anyone about what happened today. If this gets out, your sister will be dead!" Hu Qing said solemnly, pressing down on Mei Si's shoulder.
"Why did he die? What will happen to him?" Mei Si was puzzled. Would reporting the crime mean his death? But what would happen to the bad guy if he didn't report it?
"Let's get out of here quickly! Let's pretend nothing happened today!" Hu Qing hurriedly pulled Mei Si and ran outside.
Sister Hu was such a kind person, and Mei Si didn't want her to die, so she didn't struggle and let Sister Hu pull her away.
Halfway there, Mei realized that her schoolbag and lunchbox, which she had left behind, hadn't said a word. Sister Hu was terrified and decided that she should go back and get them herself later.
After watching Sister Hu enter the house, Mei Si quickly ran back, leaving her schoolbag and lunchbox behind.
Mei Si intended to take the things and leave, but just then, the dark clouds cleared, and the moonlight shone on the snow again.
Mei Si's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly realized that the bad guy's posture just now was very similar to the way Mei's parents fought.
Mei Si: Do bad guys want to fight with Sister Hu and her husband? Can they do this even without being married?
Mei Si touched her chin, put down her schoolbag and lunchbox again, went inside and dragged the bad guy out into the snow.
Mei Si looked at the human body in the snow with solemn and awe-inspiring eyes.
Meiss circled the bad guy twice and suddenly noticed the difference between the adults' and children's bodies.
Meis found a piece of wood and tapped it.
"Clap clap clap!"
"Ugh!" The man curled up in pain.
"Could it be that he needs to pee?" Mei Si tilted her head in thought, completely ignoring the man shivering in the snow.
Mei thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out. She decided to wait until she was older to talk about it.
Mei picked up her schoolbag and lunchbox and left.
"Hiss~! Cold...crunch crunch crunch..." The man lay in the snow, his teeth chattering from the cold.
After Mei Si returned home, she first secretly went to Sister Hu's house and placed the lunchbox on her window.
"Sisi, why are you back so late today? We've already finished eating. Look at you, a little girl, you're never home after school. What if you run into..." Grandma Mei started her daily nagging as soon as her granddaughter finally returned.
"Grandma, don't worry. With Sisi's strength, you should be more concerned about other people's safety." Before Mei Si could say anything, Mei Liang couldn't stand it anymore.
"You brat, you heartless bastard! Are you even Sisi's real brother? How can you talk like that? You're not worried about your sister's safety, but you're worried about outsiders? What are you doing back here? Get out of here! The older you get, the more heartless you become. You might as well not come back on Sundays anymore..." Grandma Mei got angry when she heard Mei Liang's words and turned her anger on him.
Mei Liang shrank his neck, immediately realizing he shouldn't have said anything. Now, he was the one being nagged.
The man stayed in the snow until dawn before groggily waking up. He shivered as he pulled up his cotton trousers, which were already frozen stiff.
The man struggled for a long time but couldn't stand up; his legs were so cold they were almost numb. He couldn't stay there any longer.
The man gritted his teeth and crawled home bit by bit.
