Chapter 003 Injured
Suddenly, everyone in the pavilion disappeared in an instant. Even Sun Lingling, who was said to be pregnant, and the matchmaker who introduced the blind date disappeared instantly. It was outrageous.
The one running in the front is Jiang Nan, who has a system and is always at the forefront of the crowd.
She is tall and has long legs, so one step of hers is longer than two steps of others. She can run without taking a breath, which makes it very convenient for her to eat melons.
The group of people behind him were even more breathless as they ran. Even so, they followed closely behind Jiang Nan, not lagging behind even a step.
It's no wonder people love to watch the excitement. These days, there's so little entertainment, and watching the excitement is the best entertainment. Haven't you seen halfway through, some elderly people who didn't know what was going on, saw so many people running wildly, and joined in without a second thought?
Nowadays, people like to follow the crowd.
In Jiang Nan's previous life, it was already 2025, and there were still people who loved to join in the fun. When they saw the long queue, they would get in without asking anything.
However, this may also be a sequelae of queuing for supplies. It is somewhat related to this, but not much.
What we mean is that Chinese people love to join in the fun, and they will never give up no matter where they are or when.
At this moment, Jiang Nan looked back as she ran, seeing the people chasing her relentlessly. But she didn't want her elder brother to laugh at her second brother, so she quickly quickened her pace and ran. She also enjoyed watching the fun, and there were benefits to watching the fun. After all, Jiang Nan had a system.
Jiang Nan, who was well-organized, finally ran to the guesthouse.
Wow, the place was packed with people, and there was no way to get through. Some latecomers tried to squeeze forward, but were scolded by the elderly people standing firmly in the front.
"Why are you pushing? It's first come, first served. We still want to watch."
"That's right, stop crowding."
"That's my neighbor. Move aside. I'll go in and try to persuade her." Lin Bing had forgotten about the blind date and was completely focused on watching the fun. Relying on his height and male strength, he pulled Sister Qiao Lian, who was approaching, and squeezed in first.
Although Jiang Nan was tall, she wasn't as strong as Lin Bing. Seeing she couldn't squeeze in, she gave up the effort and used her height advantage to stand on tiptoe. But all she saw was three people tangling in the lobby of the guesthouse, making a crackling sound and sending sparks flying. The crowd kept moving back and forth and left and right with the three people's movements, which was as funny as it could be.
Old Lady Liu and the others couldn't see, and they were so anxious that they kept pointing at the strangers beside them: "Who is having an affair with whom? Is it the man's wife who caught them in an affair?"
"No." The woman who was dragged along didn't get angry. Seeing that there were still people who didn't know, she scolded them, "It was a man who came to catch his wife cheating on him! His wife was cheating on him, and he came over with a brick, saying he was going to kill the adulterers! Oh, it was so scary."
"Oh my God, don't you know? Grandma Fang, don't you live in Building 4, Yard 1? The one having an affair in there is Fan Taohua from your building. Her husband Wu Dachui came to catch them in the act." An auntie nearby obviously recognized Grandma Fang and the others and quickly joined the group chat.
"Fan Taohua?!" Old Lady Liu turned into a screaming chicken. "Oh my god, it really is not a peaceful life for her. She flirts with other girls all day long. What did I say? Sooner or later something bad will happen..."
"Oh my god, this is embarrassing for the people in our building."
"That's right, everyone, please make way. We're all from the same building. Go to the front and ask everyone to make way."
"Don't try to cut in line. We're from the same courtyard, and we're not that far ahead. Those of you who came later, please don't try to act silly. It's first come, first served. You can't cut in line at any time."
"That's right."
It was so lively to watch. The innocent people started arguing first, and it was the innocent people in the back row who couldn't see what was happening. It was really magical.
"Dachui, take it easy and don't kill anyone. If something happens, you will have to go to jail. It's not worth it." A male comrade who sympathized with Wu Dachui shouted at the top of his voice.
[Host, scans indicate that Wu Dachui is overly excited and could cause a fatality. The main system has issued a task. If you can prevent the murder, you will be rewarded with 100 Chigua coins.]
Jiang Nan blinked, and blinked again. Look, she said she was the chosen one. There are benefits to watching the fun!
100 melon coins is quite a lot!
You should know that one melon-eating coin can be exchanged for an egg, and 100 melon-eating coins can feed the whole family for a month.
Instantly, Jiang Nan was filled with energy. Leveraging her 5'11" height and the stamina she gained from eating eggs every day, she sprinted to the front of the melon-eating crowd, as if she hadn't been the one standing on tiptoe just now.
In the middle of the field, there was a man and a woman lying there. Their faces were covered in blood, and their orange-red work clothes were stained even redder.
Fan Taohua's shirt buttons were unbuttoned. She covered her bleeding forehead with one hand and pointed at Wu Dachui viciously with the other: "You are allowed to drive out and fool around with widows, but I can't come out to find someone?! I'm telling you, Wu Dachui, I want to divorce you. You are a bastard who was born by a mother but not raised by her. You will get sick and die a miserable death in the future. Your father is even less of a thing. He dared to peek at me taking a bath. I don't want to live with you anymore. You are a bunch of disgusting bastards..."
Wu Dachui, a 5'8" burly man, was so angry that his eyes were red and his whole body was shaking. Hearing the woman's words, he raised the brick in his hand and hit Fan Taohua fiercely: "I'm going to kill you, you bitch!"
"Big Hammer, don't let anyone get killed." Old Wu, who had been accused of something dirty, had been cowering, but now, seeing this, he hurried forward to hold his son's hand. He still depended on his son for support, so he couldn't let his son go in.
But before he could succeed, he was knocked off balance by a woman who rushed out from the side behind him. Before he could stand firmly, the brick in his son Wu Dachui's hand was snatched away.
This woman was none other than Jiang Nan, who was only interested in making some money.
Jiang Nan wasn't being reckless. Her mother, Chen Jinhua, had been a strong child, so she was spotted by a local martial arts master. After years of instruction, she became quite skilled. Jiang Nan, Chen Jinhua's daughter, had also been practicing martial arts since she was three, claiming it was simply for physical fitness, and no one had bothered to criticize her.
After more than a decade, Jiang Nan's skills were still quite good. She snatched the brick away without further ado, and quickly disappeared into the crowd, keeping her achievements and fame to herself.
"How is it? When will the melon coins arrive?"
[Host, the danger detected has not been completely eliminated, and the Chigua coins have not yet been credited to your account.]
"I'll go, it's still dangerous."
"Move aside, move aside, which shameless woman dares to seduce my man? I'll scratch her face until it's covered in blood."
The originally crowded crowd made way for a path because of this sentence.
Everyone's eyes were shining as they watched the short and fat middle-aged woman enter the center of the melon-eating area.
"Zhao Datou, why are you pretending to be dizzy? I don't even know you, you spineless bastard. Now that your wife is here, let's see how you can keep pretending, you cowardly son-in-law!"
Seeing Wu Dachui without a weapon, Fan Taohua continued to expose her secrets without discrimination. She had already been humiliated to death today, and no one could expect to be in trouble. Fan Taohua held her head high, looking down on everyone with a look of contempt: "How could I seduce him?! A man who is even younger than a daylily! If he wasn't willing to spend money on me, I wouldn't even bother with him!"
"Okay, you big head Zhao! I was wondering why you never came home after becoming a worker. Are you trying to dump me? I'm telling you, no way! Your Zhao family agreed to sell you to our Hu family, regardless of life or death. What's going on? You want to go back on your word?" The fat woman put her hands on her hips and kicked the man in the butt. "Stop playing dead! Tell me, is what she said true? Did you spend money on her?"
Seeing that he could no longer pretend, Zhao Datou woke up faintly. He looked weak and said weakly: "No, you took all my salary, how could I spend money on her? She seduced me, and I came here to make things clear with her. Yes, I want to make things clear with her."
He began to speak confidently, looking at the woman's eyes full of affection: "Lihua, you have to believe me, I already have you, how could I have an affair with her? She is so ugly, I don't like her. The one I like most is you, Lihua, you are my true love. When I see you, I can't see anyone else. You are all in my heart and eyes. I wish I could give you all the good things in the world..."
The woman called Lihua's face became redder and redder, and the fierceness in her eyes that she had when she first came was no longer there. She was now shy and timid, and finally she twisted her body and stomped her feet, looking very charming.
Well, the coquettishness of a middle-aged woman is also coquettish. She reached out and punched Zhao Datou's chest, her voice hoarse: "You bastard, I knew you loved me the most. This woman is like a bean sprout, how could you possibly be interested in her? Only a plump beauty like me would be to your taste. Tell me, when did you fall in love with me? Did you set your eyes on me a long time ago and throw a tantrum to get your parents to sell you out?"
Everyone looked at the fat woman's short and fat figure, and then at Fan Taohua's willow-like figure, shaking their heads, wondering how the plot had changed from an exciting story of catching an adulterer to a disgusting middle-aged love story.
Jiang Nan exclaimed, "Wow, this guy has really broadened her horizons."
This man who lives off his wife is no simple person.
Oh, except her dad, who loves it. He would be unhappy if he wasn't allowed to eat it.
I've strayed off topic. Let's just talk about Fan Taohua, the other party in the affair. How could she let it go? She sneered and said sarcastically, "Stupid woman! You don't have a mirror at home, can't you just pee and look at yourself? With your looks, you still call yourself a beauty? Calling you a woman is embarrassing for us female comrades. You're so ignorant and stupid. Zhao Datou is an ugly man who lives off you, and you treat him like a treasure! Let me tell you, Zhao Datou's mistresses aren't just me. There's Widow Zhang from your village and Widow Tong from the next village. He's had a lot of affairs!"
"Shut up." Seeing the woman's eyes gradually clear up, Zhao Datou hurriedly scolded, "Who the hell are you? How dare you say that about me? Sun Daniu, Zheng Laonian, Qian Dadan... Do you want me to list them one by one? Watch your mouth!"
Fan Taohua's chest heaved, clearly furious. She'd divorced and had to find another partner, so how could this Zhao Datou ruin her plans?
Wu Dachui, who had been robbed of his brick and was being held down by others, could no longer resist hearing this. He roared, broke free from the crowd like a madman, pulled out a fruit knife from his pocket, and in two or three steps, came up to Fan Taohua and stabbed her fiercely.
Seeing this, Jiang Nan didn't think twice before raising her leg and kicking. Fortunately, she was standing behind Fan Taohua, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get there in time. Even then, she was scratched by the fruit knife, and her right foot was bleeding profusely.
In the middle of summer, Jiang Nan was wearing a pair of black plastic sandals. Her feet were white, and the black shoes were covered in blood, which looked very scary. Jiang Nan gasped in pain and sat down on the ground, holding her feet. She sighed to the system, "Xiao Tong, I'm injured. Can the melon-eating coins increase a little? Can we not eat these dangerous melons in the future?"
"No, host. Because it's a murder case, I'm giving you 100 melon coins. A small melon like that would only cost one or two coins." The melon-eating system is ruthless. "And host, you can only see superficial injuries. It's nothing serious."
"Xiao Nan, are you okay?" Cheng Gaigai finally took advantage of her thin stature to overtake the old men and women, squeezed to the front, ate the last piece of melon, squatted down with satisfaction and supported Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan covered his feet and smiled, not forgetting to continue asking the system for benefits. Wu Dachui was subdued by several men and lay on the ground, howling, "I'm going to kill her, kill her."
"Da Chui, killing is not worth it. Let's divorce and find another one, and make this woman leave the house with nothing! Yes, leave the house with nothing. And what about Wu Chunli, Fan Taohua, tell me, is she a bastard born by you and someone else?! I wonder why she doesn't look like someone from our Wu family. Tell me, is she a bastard?" Old Wu's eyes flashed, and then he glared at Fan Taohua viciously.
Fan Taohua was also arrogant. Seeing that Wu Dachui was completely controlled, she spat on the ground and said viciously: "You old bastard! You want to raise only grandsons and not granddaughters, right? I tell you, no way! Chunli is Wu Dachui's child, you have to raise her even if you don't want to. Chunli is only fourteen. If you don't raise her, I will go to the Women's Federation to sue you..."
The crowd began to buzz and make noise, but soon quieted down.
"Make way, make way, the police are coming, everyone make way."
Four middle-aged men in police uniforms arrived at the scene, all with serious faces, and the crowd became even quieter.
At this time, people are a little afraid of these policemen wearing big hats.
The thin man in the middle saw Jiang Nan and smiled, a rare smile, but he quickly restrained it. He said with a serious face, "Xiao Nan, tell me, what's going on?"
Ever since she could walk, Jiang Nan had always been at the forefront of the melon-eating frenzy. Coupled with her equally enthusiastic father, Jiang Mancheng, the melon-eating had made them familiar faces with the officers at the Oilfield Police Station. So, without questioning anyone, the officer singled out the little girl, Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan raised his head and smiled weakly: "Uncle Lan, I'm doing a good deed today. Let me tell you..."
As expected of a professional gossip-eater with 16 years of experience, Jiang Nan did not summarize. Instead, he learned the conversations he heard from several parties one by one, without adding or subtracting a word, and explained the whole story vividly in no time.
Lan Qingshan nodded, signaling the young officer beside him to hurry up and take notes. He then raised his voice to the other officer following him, "Send Jiang Nan to the hospital. She has prevented a serious crime from happening in our area. Our police station should express its appreciation."
"No, no."
Jiang Mancheng squeezed in sweating profusely, gasping for breath from exhaustion. Seeing his daughter sitting well on the ground, he finally felt relieved. He bent down and took another deep breath before coming to Jiang Nan. He stretched out his index finger and poked his daughter's forehead, causing Jiang Nan to lean back.
"You're such a troublesome girl. You dare to get involved in all the fun. Do you know how dangerous that is? You're scaring your dad to death. Everyone says you were stabbed. Do you know that? If your mom comes and beats you up, I won't stop her."
"Dad, I know what I'm doing. There won't be any danger. Besides, I'm doing a good deed and being brave, right, Uncle Lan?" Jiang Nan blinked his big eyes, fighting for honor for himself.
These days, honor is more important than anything else. If you have the title of a hero, it will be easier to find a job in the future.
"Yes, it was a brave act. Once the matter is handled, the police station will send a letter of commendation to the oil field." Lan Qingshan knew this slick father and daughter well, and he immediately understood the little girl's plan. However, since it was indeed the girl's achievement, Lan Qingshan was not stingy with her words. "Although it was a brave act, you can't rush into everything in the future. If you encounter bad guys, you still have to call the police first, understand?"
"I know. Thank you, Uncle Lan." Jiang Nan was overjoyed, with joy all over her little face.
I won the title of a brave man and also received 100 melon coins. It’s really a double happiness.
