Chapter 30 Tch! You have a knife? Do you dare stab me?
Su Mengxin knew something was wrong!
Not wanting to be in danger, she walked away without looking back after hearing the shouts.
But as soon as she saw the police officers on board, she was blocked by someone.
The person who came was wearing a wide-brimmed hat, which covered most of his face.
He deliberately lifted his shirt slightly, revealing the black stock of his gun, and warned in a deep voice, "Mind your own business, or I'll kill you too."
Su Meng couldn't help but shiver, took a step back, and lowered her eyelids.
She considered herself quite bold, but she was successfully threatened.
The newcomer glanced at her disdainfully but did not leave immediately.
Su Xiaoman probably saw the gun butt too. She quickly shrank into the crowd, keeping a distance from Su Meng, while holding the little boy.
"Su Meng, save me! Waaah..."
The woman cried, screamed, and shouted, but the man held her tightly in his arms and forcefully dragged her onto the boat.
Su Meng felt annoyed. Didn't she see that she was being watched too?
The person watching her seemed determined to stay by her side at all times.
She takes a step outward, and the man's gaze follows her every inch; she takes a step back, and the man follows closely behind.
Su Meng finally lost her temper and growled, "Get out of the way!"
The man's lips curled into a slight smile as he said nonchalantly, "You must be Su Meng."
Where are you going? I'll take you.
Su Meng felt a little panicked. She glanced at the crowd that had moved away and managed to utter a few words, "No! Get out of the way!"
His voice carried a hint of anger and trembled, yet it was as clear and melodious as the tinkling of a spring.
The man lifted the brim of his hat, looked Su Meng up and down, and whistled smugly, "Not bad! The little sister is very pretty!"
My brother likes it!
Why not come with me? I'll treat you to the best of everything, and you'll live a carefree and happy life.
Su Meng knew she was being pestered.
She gripped the backpack strap tightly, glared at him, turned and ran, shouting, "The police are here!"
The man seemed not to hear her, grabbed her backpack, and his smile widened. "Little sister, your tricks are too naive. Let's go!"
He tossed his hat aside and reached out to grab his hair.
Su Meng ducked and flicked her finger, sending the silver needle flying.
Unfortunately, it didn't hit a vital spot.
It only touched the bridge of his nose.
The man paused, his face turning ashen, and slapped the man across the face.
By this time, it was already dark.
The dim light from the lighthouse a few meters high not far away is the last light in this area.
The woman had already been hoisted onto the deck, her piercing screams drowned out by the deafening whistle of the steam horn.
There was no one I knew around, and no one was there to help me.
Su Meng felt a chill run down her spine as she sensed a gust of wind rushing towards her, and the medicinal powder in her hand was also thrown at her face.
"You little bitch, you're asking for it!"
He tilted his head to dodge the powder and withdrew his attack.
He squinted and touched the powder by his ear, his forehead veins throbbing with anger, and reached for the gun at his waist.
Unexpectedly, he touched the cold, sharp tip of a knife.
"Tch! You have a knife? Do you dare stab me?"
The man was puzzled as to why Su Meng had a knife, but he didn't show it on his face and spoke arrogantly.
He grabbed the long knife, grinning maliciously as he tried to pull it away, and prepared to grab Su Meng with his other hand.
But just as he exerted force, he felt a sharp pain on the back of his head.
Immediately afterwards, his whole body froze.
He roared, "You bitch...grab her..."
Su Meng spoke at the same time as him, her words faster and louder, "Police officer, he's illegally possessing a gun; he's either a robber or a spy."
Seeing that I was alone, he wanted to capture me and take me to that ship.
There were girls they had abducted on that boat; I saw it with my own eyes.
I swear, every word is true.
The police officer brandished handcuffs and handcuffed him. "Take him away! Immediately report for backup and intercept that ship, quick!"
Seeing the man handcuffed, Su Meng's tense nerves relaxed, and she collapsed to the ground, beads of sweat sliding down to the corners of her mouth, a bittersweet taste.
That was close!
He narrowly escaped death again.
If I hadn't been carrying the medicine powder with me, things probably wouldn't have ended well today.
She secretly made up her mind that she had to put exercise on her schedule.
Otherwise, if she hadn't been so certain, the force with which she shot the silver needles would have been merely scratching the surface.
"Little Su, are you alright?" Su Xiaoman asked with concern as she walked out from behind the police station, carrying a child.
Su Meng was so surprised that she sat back down on the ground with a "plop," "Sister Su?"
Su Xiaoman reached out and pulled her, "It's alright, the police are here!"
Su Meng got up with a wry smile. "Thank you!"
It turned out that Su Xiaoman did not leave alone, but went to report to the police.
The two chatted for a few more minutes, then nervously huddled close to the police officer.
Su Meng pleaded, "Can I come with you? I'm afraid he might have accomplices in secret."
She clearly heard the man shout "Grab her," and there were definitely his accomplices around.
The police officer, with a stern face, scanned the area and said, "Keep up!"
Four or five minutes later, several police cars arrived with sirens blaring.
Twenty minutes later, the departing ship was escorted to shore slowly by two vessels with flashing lights on either side.
"They're back!" a female police officer said.
Police tape was immediately put up at the dock, and rows of armed police officers stood along the roadside, vigilantly watching their surroundings.
Not long after, police officers led people off the boat.
The woman ran barefoot off the boat, looked around the dock, and then ran excitedly towards Su Meng.
"Su Meng, it's so good to see you!"
Su Meng's feelings were very complicated.
She thought that her family's misfortune was caused by Zhong Wanrou's family.
But now it seems that even people associated with Zhong Wanrou bring her bad luck.
If she hadn't encountered Mo Xiaoli, who had been kidnapped by human traffickers, she wouldn't have been involved and almost abducted.
Seeing the woman's joyful expression after being rescued, Su Meng wanted to say something sarcastic, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.
"Who are you?" she asked, feigning displeasure.
The woman paused for a moment, looking at Su Meng incredulously, "Don't you remember? We met once before."
I am Wang Guangming's fiancée, the one your stepsister cheated on.
She spoke casually, showing no sign of the anger and frustration she felt from being kidnapped by human traffickers.
There was no sadness from relationship troubles.
Su Meng wanted to smile, but when she met her bright eyes, she forced herself to suppress her smile.
"Laugh if you want! If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have known that Wang Guangming was such a bastard."
Speaking of which, I should thank your stepsister.
Hearing her call her "stepsister" repeatedly, Su Meng's temples throbbed, and she turned to leave.
To her surprise, Mo Xiaoli was a very outgoing person and followed closely beside her. "My name is Mo Xiaoli. Mo means 'don't worry about having no friends on the road ahead,' Xiao means 'small,' and Li means 'parting.'"
Su Meng: "......"
"How did you end up in their hands?" And in such a sorry state.
She didn't say the last sentence, but her scrutinizing gaze said it all.
Mo Xiaoli was barefoot, her cotton shirt was missing two buttons, and the seam of her dark blue trousers was torn by about an inch. Her hair was messy and her face was dirty, making her look like... a little beggar.
"Sigh! Stop looking! I know I'm uglier than a beggar right now."
Mo Xiaoli combed her hair with her hands and said to herself, "I was in a bad mood, so I wanted to come out and clear my head. Who knew that I would be watched as soon as I got on the ship?"
"Su Meng, can you lend me some money? Look at me, I'm practically naked, it's so embarrassing!"
Su Meng knew that she was a very outgoing person, but she didn't expect her to ask for money so soon after meeting her.
She stopped smiling and was about to refuse when she saw the girl pleading pitifully, "I will definitely pay you back, twice? Ten times?"
My uncle-in-law was Jiang Weimin of the quarrying committee, my grandfather was the president of the First People's Hospital of Shanghai, and my uncle-in-law was an officer of the Southeast Military Region.
I won't lie to you.
It turns out the whole family were government officials.
Su Meng imagined that she was the biggest obstacle to Zhong Wanrou and Nie Ronghua getting together in the book, and was happy to help her.
