Chapter 78 City Hero
"Why hasn't my son come back yet?" Zhang Qiuxia stood at the door and looked out again and again.
"Why are you always thinking about your son? He is now in the serious crime squad of the Municipal Bureau and must be very busy with work. Please don't delay his work, please." Zhou Jianguo, who was watching TV, said without turning his head.
"I just don't know if he's eaten."
"He's just a nobody. How can the city bureau cafeteria even refuse to give him food? Seriously."
"What do you care about me? Just watch your TV."
"Zhang...Zhang Qiuxia, come over and watch TV." Zhou Jianguo suddenly shouted.
"Oh, I don't want to watch. I'm going to visit Aunt Li downstairs."
"No, come and see, does this person on TV look like Zhou Yi?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiuxia, who was about to change her shoes, immediately ran over, her eyes fixed on the black and white TV screen.
The TV channel is Hongcheng TV, and the picture shows the food street.
"Here's an urgent news story. A vicious hostage-taking incident has occurred at Longchang Road Food Street in our city. A suspected gang of thugs gathered to provoke trouble and attacked a plainclothes police officer. One of the thugs took a hostage. Our reporter Ding Chunmei is reporting from the scene."
In the picture, Baimao is shouting at Huzi to kill Zhou Yi.
Zhang Qiuxia moved closer to the TV, almost putting her face close to it.
"Is this Zhou Yi?" Zhang Qiuxia's voice suddenly trembled. "Zhou Jianguo, come and take a look. I think this is our son."
"Oh my god, Zhou Yi was stabbed by that kid."
The scene on TV happened to show Hu Zi stabbing Zhou Yi. Zhang Qiuxia jumped up and stamped her feet and beat her chest in anxiety.
Zhou Jianguo pulled his wife and ran out.
"What are you taking me to do?" Zhang Qiuxia struggled.
Zhou Jianguo's slippers tapped loudly: "Let's go to the food court! Save my son!"
…
In the food street, after Zhou Yi handcuffed Baimao, he heard sirens.
Two police cars with flashing lights drove over and several policemen ran out of the cars.
Xu Nian hurried over, showed his ID, and quickly explained the situation.
Immediately, all the thugs were gloriously handcuffed.
Just as a policeman was about to handcuff Hu Zi, Hu Zi began to resist violently.
At this time, Zhou Yi covered his wound and walked over with the support of the owner of the mutton soup bun shop.
Zhou Yi showed his ID and learned that the other party was from a nearby police station.
"Brother, let me do this." Zhou Yi said.
The policeman nodded and handed the handcuffs to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi took the handcuffs and turned to Hu Zi and said, "Hu Zi, if you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. Even though you were forced and instigated by Zhao Bin, you still have to receive the punishment you deserve. You are a man, so you have to take responsibility for your actions, don't you?"
Hu Zi's face was covered with tears. "Then can I still see my sister?"
"Believe me, you can definitely do it. Go back to the juvenile detention center. Be obedient and study hard. You will be released soon. Then I will personally take you home to meet your sister. Okay?"
Hu Zi wiped the tears from his face and nodded heavily.
Then he stretched out his hands.
Zhou Yi released his hand that was covering the wound and handcuffed Hu Zi's hands himself.
But he knew that this time, it was the handcuffs of salvation.
When handing Hu Zi over to the police at the police station, Zhou Yi gave him a few instructions.
Turning around, he saw two policemen carrying Baimao and dragging him into the police car. At this moment, Baimao looked like a puddle of mud and didn't even have the strength to walk.
Zhou Yi felt a little dizzy under his feet. It had only been a few days since his rebirth, and he was injured for the third time. It seemed that he had to ask his mother to buy him some more pig blood to nourish him.
The boss immediately brought a chair and asked Zhou Yi to sit down.
Xu Nian placed both of his hands on Zhou Yi's hand that was pressing on the wound, and kept saying, "Hold on a little longer, the ambulance will be here soon."
Zhou Yi smiled and said tiredly: "It's okay, I told you, I won't die."
I don’t know who started clapping first, but gradually, the people around started clapping too.
Soon, thunderous applause broke out all around, like the curtain call after a grand performance.
At this time, a young girl with short hair ran up to Zhou Yi with a man carrying a camera.
The cameraman ran too fast and the camera hit Zhou Yi directly in the face.
"Hello, police officer. I'm Ding Chunmei, a reporter from Hongcheng TV. Your heroic actions have been captured by our cameras. Thank you very much for protecting the public. Do you have anything to say at this moment?"
The female reporter named Ding Chunmei spoke very fast, and in just a few seconds she spoke a long paragraph like a machine gun.
Zhou Yi didn't quite hear clearly, he just heard that someone seemed to be asking him what he wanted to say now.
He thought for a moment and said, "I want to drink Jianlibao."
…
In the single room of the Third People's Hospital of the city, Zhou Yi was lying on a clean bed. The wounds on his abdomen and hands had been sutured and bandaged.
In the northwest corner of the ward, there is a 21-inch color TV hanging.
On TV, Zhou Yi said to the camera with a pale face: "I want to drink Jianlibao."
Wu Yongcheng turned off the TV with a snap.
"Hey kid, can't you say a few elegant words on TV?"
"I was really thirsty at that time, and I didn't finish the half can." Zhou Yi said innocently.
"Captain Wu, didn't you say you wouldn't be back until tomorrow?"
Wu Yongcheng glared at him. "I'm going back to the bureau tomorrow, not Hongcheng tomorrow. Why don't I go home to rest? I just got home and turned on the TV and saw you inside. I didn't even change my shoes before running over here."
Zhou Yi chuckled and said, "Thank you, Captain Wu, for your concern."
Wu Yongcheng pulled over a chair, sat down, and stared at Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi felt a little uneasy when he looked at him, and said with a wry smile, "Captain Wu, what do you want to say?"
"I'm talking to you, kid..." Wu Yongben instinctively took out his cigarette box, took out one, and then immediately realized that this was a hospital, so he silently put the cigarette back in.
"Hey kid, were you an engineer in your past life? Were you a mine clearance specialist? It's only been a few days, and you've already caused me such a big mess."
"Captain Wu, I really happened to meet you this time. I was just going to eat a bowl of mutton soup with steamed buns with Xu Nian, and I didn't expect to run into you..."
Zhou Yi was halfway through his words when he noticed that Wu Yongcheng was squinting his eyes and looking at him with a smile on his face.
"No, Forensic Doctor Xu and I just bumped into each other at the door after get off work, so we went to have a meal together."
"Did I ask?"
Zhou Yi was stunned. "No...I didn't ask."
"Then why are you trying to cover up your mistake?"
Zhou Yi thought to himself that the older you get, the wiser you become. Wu Yongcheng not only smokes, but he also knows how to argue with people.
"The province just awarded us a second-class collective merit, and Director Xie asked me to come back and write the materials. I'm already having a headache. And now you're giving me this big, influential thing."
Zhou Yi asked sharply, "Has our second-class merit been finalized?"
Wu Yongcheng nodded and said calmly, "Director Xie said that this is your first achievement."
Zhou Yi waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, it's all thanks to the good leadership and the collective efforts."
"Stop talking nonsense."
Wu Yongcheng pointed outside and asked, "Do you know what people outside are calling you now?"
"What?" Zhou Yi asked in surprise.
"City hero."
