The staff member next to Officer Luo was both surprised and taking notes.
Jiang Shuya went through the story in her mind and then began to speak: "Later, my father-in-law went to his house to persuade him to build a house. Nowadays, every family in Jiangdao has built illegal structures, but he didn't care at all. He claimed that he was now a person who did great things and didn't need a few pennies. He wouldn't even consider building a house. He could make a lot of money doing business. Later, he got drunk at his uncle's house and heard that he was helping someone take care of children. So I thought of the child who was missing from the 'Jinling Evening News' and secretly followed him for a few days. From what he said on the phone, I judged that he would make arrangements today, so I found someone to help him in time."
Officer Luo smiled shrewdly at her: "You've been busy all this time, and you've gotten revenge for yourself, haven't you?"
Jiang Shuya reminded him, "No, Huang Tao didn't catch him, he got away."
Officer Luo was somewhat embarrassed, but nodded repeatedly and promised, "Don't worry, no matter where he escapes to, we will not let go of any clues and will give the victim an explanation."
After saying that, he stood up and said, "There is a child in the hospital who is being treated for congenital heart disease. It is very difficult to treat. Perhaps he has been taking medication to control it for a long time, but he has been harmed by those people recently and has probably stopped taking the medication, so it has relapsed. I have to go and see him. We will contact the child's parents as soon as possible to pick him up. We will take care of all the relevant procedures. We will contact you as soon as we have finished handling this. Also, we will notify you to come and collect the reward money together."
Sitting in the corner, Lin Moxiao listened quietly to everything Jiang Shuya had said. He clenched his fists tightly. He never expected that such a thing could happen in today's society governed by the rule of law. Such evil people were on Jiang Island. Although Jiang Island was beautiful, the people there were treacherous and it was extremely dangerous. Moreover, such a family was hiding there. He clenched his fists tightly. If he had known this would happen, he should have taught Huang Tao a lesson immediately and made him live a life worse than this.
Officer Luo walked over with a teacup in hand, looking on with envy. "Good lad, not bad! Where did you learn your martial arts? Why didn't you take the police academy entrance exam?"
Lin Moxiao said, "I learned it from my maternal grandfather."
Officer Luo then asked, "Are you interested in working at the police station? I can apply for a temporary position for you, so you can gain experience and take the exams along the way. I'm sure that with your abilities, you'll have a bright future."
Lin Moxiao smiled slightly, the wound on his lip particularly noticeable. He moved slightly and winced in pain. He glanced at Officer Luo and said, "Really, it's not necessary. I have a job now, flying a plane."
Officer Luo's eyes widened upon hearing this, then he realized what he meant and chuckled twice, nodding approvingly: "I see. Good lad should be handed over to the country to serve the people."
After saying that, he left with his men.
Lin Moxiao saw Jiang Shuya walking towards him, loosened his fist, and regained his composure: "Are you done? You can go now."
Jiang Shuya nodded, somewhat reproachfully: "I just told you to go to the clinic to get your wound treated, but you insisted on coming here with me!"
Lin Moxiao smiled and said, "Let's go now! It's almost dawn. Let's clean the wound first, and then you can treat me to breakfast!"
Jiang Shuya smiled and agreed.
The two arrived at the health center. The weather was exceptionally cold. The nurse on duty yawned. Seeing that it was barely dawn, she became curious. There were several tears in the woman's clothes, and her down jacket was torn open, with most of the down inside having escaped.
She glanced again at the several bloodstains on the tall man's face, which were very noticeable due to his pale skin. The bloodstains had already congealed and were stuck to his skin. Jiang Shuya also felt that the wound on her arm had also congealed, but when she pressed it, it did not show any signs of congealing.
The nurse brought over iodine solution and helped Lin Moxiao clean up. She carefully examined him; the man in front of her was strikingly handsome, with features as if painted in ink, a cold and aloof face, and an air of refined elegance. She blushed instantly; she thought that such a man was something she had only ever seen on television or in picture books, how could he possibly appear in real life?
Perhaps feeling uncomfortable, Lin Moxiao frowned and suddenly spoke up: "Please hurry up, don't you know how to clean it?"
The words that slipped out made the nurse a little nervous, and she hurriedly sped up her pace, her heart racing as well.
Jiang Shuya, standing beside her, pursed her lips and almost laughed out loud: "Hold on a little longer! She's probably just starting out as an intern, give her a chance."
The nurse looked at Jiang Shuya with gratitude and smiled.
A soft light suddenly appeared in Lin Moxiao's eyes as he looked down at her. Jiang Shuya avoided his gaze and made an excuse to leave the infirmary.
Seeing her leave, Lin Moxiao felt a pang of loneliness again.
Jiang Shuya stood outside pacing back and forth. Fortunately, she didn't have to wait long before she saw him come out of the infirmary. Looking at the injuries on his face, which were covered with colorful medicines like works of art, she smiled at him without saying a word.
The two went to a snack shop next to the health center, which specializes in wontons and potstickers.
Jiang Shuya remembers that this wonton shop is the best handmade potsticker wonton shop in Jiangdao. The shop is run by two sisters and named "Erzi Potsticker". The craftsmanship is authentic. The potstickers are all handmade with delicious fillings and chewy wrappers. There are many customers every day. They sell out before eight o'clock when they open. Today, because it was early morning and the snow had stopped, it was even colder than yesterday. Many small shops around here had not yet opened. The two sisters are very hardworking and work year-round.
It was just dawn, and there were few customers at that time. The two ordered two bowls of wontons and three ounces of potstickers, and sat down in the shop.
While waiting, Lin Moxiao looked around and said, "I remember when I was in high school, I was living at school. Once, Wang Ziliang was hungry, so he climbed over the wall to go out for a late-night snack. I was sleeping at home at the time. He came to my house and asked me to go out with him for barbecue. I went out with him without thinking. We ate barbecue skewers at a restaurant. He drank a lot of alcohol. It was the first time he had ever drunk alcohol. He didn't know his limits and drank a lot until he passed out."
"The next day, while everyone else was in class, he was sleeping in the dormitory. The teacher later punished him by making him do 30 practice tests. These tests were from different subjects, and each one was different. He was required to hand them in within two days. You can't imagine how anxious he was. Later, he came to me for help. I distributed his test papers to everyone in the class to do one, trying to avoid his handwriting. But everyone else finished, except for his two. So I asked him why he didn't do them. Was it because he didn't have enough time? He shook his head in distress because he couldn't understand the questions at all."
Jiang Shuya laughed twice: "My cousin is the class monitor and also sits next to him. Didn't she help him?"
Lin Moxiao smiled and said, "Your cousin's grades were very average in her first year of high school, but she caught up in the following two years. I tutored her for a while, and she improved very quickly. Wang Ziliang admired her a lot and followed her around all day. He obeyed her every word and was very funny. However, he was prone to getting sleepy and dozing off in class. Jiang Shuyue tried to talk him out of it a few times, but it didn't work, so she gave up."
