Chapter 32
It was late at night, and the light of the flashlight shone into people's eyes, making people cover their eyes subconsciously.
"Take out the money, or don't blame us for being rude." The fierce shouting came with the light of the flashlight, and it was particularly clear in the dark night.
Sun Tieshu pulled Qin Xiang behind him and looked at the opposite side. There were four strong men on the opposite side, who were looking at the three of them viciously.
When they saw Qin Xiang's face, they showed surprised expressions on their faces.
One of them whistled, "I didn't expect there was a little beauty. Little beauty, have a good chat with your brother."
The others also laughed.
Qin Xiang was a little worried, and whispered to Sun Tieshu, "Brother Sun, let's abandon the car and run back. I'll pay for the car later."
"I'm afraid it's not that easy." Sun Tieshu has been driving for so many years, and he has encountered all kinds of things. He knows that Qin Xiang has made money, so he is waiting here on purpose. How could he let them go so easily?
Turning around, he saw two men blocking them not far away.
There were only three of them, a woman and a child. The only one who could really fight was probably Sun Tieshu, while the other side had five people.
A man on the opposite side shouted, "Take out the money and put it on the ground, otherwise you will be in trouble today."
As he spoke, people on both sides began to walk towards Qin Xiang and his friends, their eyes fixed on the shoulder bag hanging on Qin Xiang's waist.
The bag was filled with the money from today's sales. It was bulging with more than 3,000 yuan.
"Brother Sun, we can only pay you."
Qin Xiang was reluctant to give up the money. It was the money for more than 500 pieces of clothing, including the original cost. But she couldn't let Sun Tieshu and Mi Hongjun, who were helping, get beaten for money.
Sun Tieshu frowned and thought quickly, but it was in the middle of nowhere and no one would hear them if they shouted.
"Those who know the current situation better take it out, otherwise we won't care if you lose your arms and legs."
Another one also said, "Yes, you are so good at making money, just keep gathering tomorrow to make more money. Our families are not well off and need money, so you should just do a good deed."
Hearing this, Qin Xiang suddenly raised his head and looked at the few people, "Did someone invite you here?"
"What are you talking about? No one invited us here. We saw it when we gathered together." One of the men argued.
"Don't talk nonsense, hand over the money to avoid being beaten."
Qin Xiang didn't believe this. If they didn't know in advance that they were going this way, how could they be stuck here by such a coincidence.
Qin Xiang's heart was bleeding, but there was nothing he could do, so he took off the bag.
Sun Tieshu grabbed her arm and said, "I'll break through from the back, and Xiaomi and I will hold them back. You take the money and run to the city to report to the police."
"Yes, Sister Xiangxiang, you listen to Brother Sun." Mi Hongjun had never seen such a battle and was scared to death. But when he thought that the money in the bag was the result of their day's work, he couldn't bear to part with it. He gritted his teeth and said courageously, "Sister Xiangxiang, run out and call for help to save us."
Qin Xiang looked at those ferocious men, but couldn't agree. "If the money is gone, you can make it again. No one can get hurt."
Sun Tieshu is a truck driver and the pillar of the Sun family. The whole family depends on Sun Tieshu. If something happens to Sun Tieshu, how will she explain to Aunt Hu? Mi Hongjun is just so young, and she dare not gamble on the humanity of those people.
She shook her head and said, "Give me money."
Then she threw her bag directly on the ground. She looked at the men opposite and said, "Can you let us go?"
The men opposite did not expect Qin Xiang to give so much money so readily. They thought they would have to fight today.
The leader nodded, "Of course you can go."
He made way for us and his eyes fell on Qin Xiang, "If you are willing to stay, you can. I can give you half of the money."
"Bah. Don't push your luck." Qin Xiang looked at him and gritted her teeth, "You robbed the money, it's just robbery. You take the money and it's gone. There's no mark anyway. If you dare to touch us, you will be committing murder. If we hurt a finger, you will be wanted by the police tomorrow."
After that, she motioned Sun Tieshu and Mi Hongjun to follow and walk forward.
Sun Tieshu pursed his lips tightly, feeling very helpless, but they really couldn't beat these people. If Qin Yang was here, it would be great. There was really nothing to see with these idiots.
Just at this moment, the man in front was suddenly kicked from behind and fell forward to the ground.
"Fuck, which idiot dared to hit your master." The robber got up from the ground with a loud curse, and the others also reacted and looked at the instigator.
Qin Xiang looked up in surprise and saw Qin Yang holding a stick in his hand and waving at several people.
Before she could react, Sun Tieshu grabbed the bag and stuffed it into her hand, then pushed her out. "Your third brother is here, nothing will happen. Go call for help."
Sun Tieshu also called Mi Hongjun to rush towards those people.
Qin Xiang was pushed out, and when she looked back, she saw her third brother wielding a stick and fighting fiercely with those people. He really didn't look like he was going to suffer a loss, so she felt relieved.
She shouted, "Third brother, don't kill anyone."
After that, Qin Xiang ran forward. She had to call for help, she had to report to the police, she couldn't let such people get away with it.
She ran very fast, and after running for a while, she suddenly heard other footsteps behind her. She turned around and was scared to death. It turned out to be a man she had not seen just now who was staring at her and chasing her. It was just because she ran fast that the other party did not catch up.
Qin Xiang gritted her teeth and ran forward. The man behind her snorted, "You'd better be sensible and give me the money, otherwise I will not just ask for money if I catch up with you."
"Give it to your father's balls." Qin Xiang refused to give it. She ran very fast in the middle of the night. Suddenly, she glimpsed a stone on the side of the road. She quickly squatted down and picked up the stone, and smashed it on the head of the man who was chasing her. The man reacted and stretched out his hand to block her arm.
Qin Xiang couldn't move her arms. The man held her arms and said, "What a beauty."
The lewd look in his eyes made Qin Xiang feel disgusted.
She raised her foot and kicked out quickly, one kick after another. The man didn't expect this woman to be so wild. He could block the upper part, but not the lower part, and was kicked by Qin Xiang in an instant.
The man was kicked in the most vulnerable part. Qin Xiang's kick was quite strong. The man immediately bent over in pain, and veins on his forehead popped out. He gritted his teeth and looked at Qin Xiang, "You, bitch!"
"You bastard." Qin Xiang picked up the man and turned around and slammed him on the knee. The man fell directly to the ground. Qin Xiang untied the scarf from her neck very neatly, pressed the man and tied his hands and feet together, "Wait for me."
Qin Xiang looked not far away, and she could no longer see the shadows of the third brother and the others. She breathed a sigh of relief and knew that she could not panic, so she ran forward quickly. There
was a town in front of her. Qin Xiang had never been there, but there was a policeman on duty at the police station. She quickly ran over and knocked on the window, calling the person on duty to explain the situation.
The police officer was stunned at first, then blew his whistle and called for help, "Emergency, gather."
There were only four police officers on duty at night in the police station. Qin Xiang said, "There are six of them in total."
The police officer frowned and said, "You go first, I'll go call for help."
The four police officers took their equipment and asked Qin Xiang to lead the way and quickly went back and forth.
Qin Xiang was sweating all over and his legs were tired from running late at night. Two of the police officers rode bicycles and asked Qin Xiang to get on, "We will ride ahead."
The road was uneven and full of potholes at that time. The police officers wore flashlights on their heads and rode very fast.
"What happened?"
Qin Xiang told the police everything that happened. "We don't know how they knew we were coming here. It was quite sudden, but they said someone told them. We are not locals. We are just temporarily stopping here. We were supposed to leave tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, the police were silent. They only stopped here for two days, but they still rushed to sell things to make money. Are all self-employed people so hardworking? After
the car drove for a while, Qin Xiang said, "The person who chased me should be here." However,
the police shone a flashlight on the road, but they didn't see anyone.
Qin Xiang thought of the man's appearance when she left, and she felt that the other party couldn't run far.
Several police officers followed behind, searching everywhere with flashlights. Suddenly, one of them said, "There are traces here."
Two police officers went to look for this one, while the other two took Qin Xiang and continued to run forward.
The closer they got, the louder the sounds of ghosts and wolves howling became.
Qin Xiang shuddered, worried that something had happened to her third brother and the others. The police officer said, "Don't turn on the flashlights yet, to prevent them from running away."
The closer they got, the more worried Qin Xiang became, and her hands began to tremble.
She couldn't imagine what she would do if something had happened to her third brother and the others.
When they got closer, the police stopped the car and shone their flashlights over.
The light from the two flashlights was enough to see the situation at the scene clearly.
Qin Xiang was stunned, and then she was delighted.
She ran over and hugged Qin Yang, "Third brother, you are all okay, that's great."
She looked Qin Yang up and down and found that he had no injuries, and she was relieved immediately.
"Sister Xiangxiang, I'm injured." Mi Hongjun's aggrieved voice came from the side.
Qin Xiang then looked at Mi Hongjun, his face was a little swollen from being hit, and his legs were limping, "Your legs were injured?"
Sun Tieshu laughed, "This kid, I told him to stay away, but his legs were not nimble enough and he was punched and fell into the ditch."
Qin Xiang: "...I'm glad you're okay."
Mi Hongjun: "..."How embarrassing.
Public Security Comrade: "..."Where are the robbers as promised?
Only then did Qin Xiang look at the people wailing on the ground. Not only were they beaten black and blue, but they were also tied up. A closer look revealed the things they were tied up with...
well, they were all the brocade socks left over from today.
These socks were really strong enough to tie up all these people.
Qin Xiang tried to make the best of a bad situation by thinking that this would be an advantage when selling socks in the future.
Seeing the police wearing big hats coming, the robbers became obedient and even started to make excuses saying that it was a misunderstanding.
But how could the police listen to their nonsense? They just untied their socks and put on handcuffs.
A police officer said to Qin Yang, "You three fucked five people?"
Qin Yang responded indifferently, feeling very unhappy. He was thinking that if he hadn't been worried about his sister running out to pick them up, who knows what would have happened.
Mi Hongjun was already dancing and explaining the situation to the police, who were overwhelmed by what they heard, "Okay, let's go to the police station to explain the situation and take notes, and we'll talk about it there."
Qin Xiang came over and pulled the car, letting Mi Hongjun sit in it, and whispered, "I really wronged you today, I will give you compensation later."
When Mi Hongjun heard about the compensation, his eyes lit up, "Sister Xiangxiang, I'm fine now."
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
At this time, the two police officers also came over, dragging a person behind them.
Qin Yang was shocked and looked at Qin Xiang. Qin Xiang said, "Third brother, I'm fine. You're great. I'm your sister, and I'm great too."
But the other person was still covering that spot, so people could tell at a glance where he was kicked.
A policeman said, "He probably can't walk anymore. Can you let him sit on your cart first?" He
had to give it a try. It was quite late now. Otherwise, if he kept walking like this, who knows when he would get to the police station.
If Qin Yang really had to make a decision, he would just pull the man with a rope and walk behind him. But he also wanted to solve the problem quickly, so he could only stare at the man and watch him being thrown onto the cart.
Mi Hongjun looked at the other person and pouted, "It's what he deserves. It's better if he breaks into pieces."
Everyone present was a little embarrassed, and several policemen looked at Qin Xiang with admiration.
This is a remarkable female comrade, she is really ruthless.
Sun Tieshu secretly said to Qin Yang, "Your sister is really powerful, did she kick your ex-brother-in-law when she got divorced?"
"You want to be beaten, right?" Qin Yang glared at Sun Tieshu, who laughed and walked forward.
As for the robber who was kicked, he has no hope in life now. He is in so much pain that he can't go to the hospital. He thinks he is going to die. And seeing the miserable situation on his side, how could he not know that they have lifted the iron plate, and he huddled on the cart and dared not move.
Seeing that the other party ignored him and that he had so many backers, Mi Hongjun became even more aggressive, "Shameless thing, a tall and strong man doesn't make money properly but robs people on the road, he will have to eat peanuts sooner or later."
The other party shuddered and looked at Qin Xiang who was following Qin Yang, with hatred in his eyes that could not be concealed. Just
at this moment, Qin Yang turned his head and glanced at him, and the man immediately retracted his gaze with fear in his eyes.
As for the other five men, they followed behind honestly, not daring to sneak away because they saw the things on the public security officer's waist. It is true that they are after money, but they are also afraid of death. They have been bad students for many years, but they know that there are real people in the things of the public security officer.
After walking for half an hour, the group finally arrived at the police station in the town. Inside the police station, the police station chief and other staff had been notified.
Seeing six men with bruises on their faces, Chief Pang was stunned. "Which one is the robber and which one is the victim?"
Police officer Lin, who went to arrest them, pointed at the six men and said, "They are the robbers, and the four of them are the robbed."
Chief Pang became even more suspicious. The robbers were beaten so badly, but the victims seemed to be unharmed?
This matter was incredible, but when Chief Pang saw Qin Yang, he seemed to understand. He seemed to be a martial artist with some skills.
The six men were interrogated separately, and Qin Xiang and others sat outside to take notes.
After finishing the record and telling the story, Qin Xiang looked at the wall clock and saw that it was almost ten o'clock.
Qin Xiang was exhausted and felt very sorry for Sun Tieshu and his third brother. After such a thing happened, he didn't know if he could leave tomorrow.
Sun Tieshu obviously thought of this and said to Qin Xiang, "You can't be blamed for this. If you want to blame someone, blame those robbers. Let's see the situation. If we can't leave, we can leave a day or two later. I will report the situation to the team early tomorrow morning. It's okay. Our team is the most protective of our relatives."
Qin Yang also comforted him, "Don't worry, your third brother is here."
Qin Xiang nodded. Lin, the policeman who was taking the record for them, said, "You are not locals, but you'd better cooperate with the investigation tomorrow. If you can leave, we will notify you."
After the matter was done, several people prepared to go back.
On the way, Mi Hongjun was still very excited, still thinking about Qin Yang's awesomeness just now, and pestered Qin Yang, "Brother Qin San, can you teach me a few tricks when you have time, you are really awesome."
Qin Yang was too lazy to pay attention to such a brat, and pulled the cart without saying a word.
Sun Tieshu laughed, "Old Qin is awesome, right? I tell you, Old Qin is very popular in our team. If I hadn't cooperated with him for several years, he would have been robbed by someone long ago."
Driving a long-distance truck on the road is not safe, especially in the past few years when there were many cases of road robbery. It is very necessary to have an awesome helper.
Although Qin Yang is young, he is very powerful now, but it is the result of years of training. He has learned from retired soldiers and has practical experience. The two of them have really been through life and death together in the past. Even Sun Tieshu's skills are partly acquired through actual combat, but he also learned from Qin Yang.
Otherwise, Qin Yang would not be so confident in Sun Tieshu, and Sun Tieshu is so good to Qin Xiang.
This is all because of their friendship.
Qin Xiang listened to Sun Tieshu's words and glanced at her third brother. In the dark, her third brother's expression was still indifferent, and no changes could be seen.
Qin Xiang did not see the whole scene, but she could hear the danger of the situation just now from Mi Hongjun's words. She also knew that her third brother was powerful, but she did not expect him to be so powerful.
In the battle just now, Mi Hongjun was just a minor player, which means that his third brother and Sun Tieshu defeated five people.
Those five people were all young and strong, and they didn't look malnourished.
So how did the third brother survive in the past few years, and how much hardship did he endure?
As if noticing her gaze, Qin Yang looked towards her, "It's all over, don't be afraid."
Qin Xiangmin pursed her lips, "Third brother, thank you for your hard work."
This thank you for your hard work was filled with too much emotion. Qin Yang smiled and touched her head with his free hand, "It's okay." When
they returned to the guesthouse, they saw that Deputy Director He was still waiting in the lobby. He breathed a sigh of relief to see them finally come back, "You finally..."
She was startled and saw the injuries on Mi Hongjun and Sun Tieshu. She couldn't help but be surprised, "What happened to you, did you encounter robbers?"
Qin Xiang was a little depressed and had to tell the story again.
Upon hearing that the bad guy was already in the police station, Deputy Director He breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you're okay. I wanted to come here to hear about your achievements today, but I didn't expect you to stay here. I was worried that something had happened to you and you hadn't left yet. Now that you're back, you should have a good rest first, and we'll talk about everything tomorrow."
Qin Xiang really didn't want to talk at this moment, so she nodded and said goodbye to Deputy Director He.
When sending her out, Deputy Director He asked which police station was handling the case. After listening, he nodded and said, "I'll tell the director tomorrow morning. After all, you're solving the problem for our factory, and you can't suffer this in vain. We will follow up on this side. This impact is really too bad."
She was still counting on Qin Xiang to take another batch of goods with her before leaving.
Qin Xiang nodded, "Thank you, Deputy Director He."
They are not locals, so some things are difficult to handle. The robbers are all locals. If they find some connections and the case ends up being left unsolved, they will not be able to swallow this breath.
After seeing Deputy Director He off and returning to the lobby, Qin Xiang said, "Go back and have a rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Qin Yang looked at her worriedly, and Qin Xiang smiled, "Third brother, I'm not afraid."
Although she had never encountered such a thing in her previous life, she was not a timid person. If she gave up her idea because of a little thing, she would regret it.
Qin Yang looked at his sister and saw that she looked normal, so he instructed, "If you have any problem, just shout or knock on the wall. I can hear you."
"Okay."
Qin Xiang went upstairs to wash up. She was in no mood to count the money. She put her bag on the bed. While lying on the bed, Qin Xiang reviewed what happened tonight. The more she thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was premeditated.
She thought that this matter would at least take a few days, but early the next morning, Mi Hongjun came and knocked on the door, "Sister Xiangxiang, the police are here, and those people have confessed."
