Chapter 80 The Price



When Wu Guoliang saw that the police really came, he immediately became timid, and the ferocious temperament he had just had disappeared.

He walked up to Sun Dong in a flattering manner and said, "Comrade police, you can't listen to the nonsense of this little beggar. These kids dare to say anything for a bite to eat.

My son and I are both law-abiding citizens. You must not wrongly accuse good people."

Sun Dong held a notebook in one hand and a pen in the other. When he heard Wu Guoliang say such shameless words, he snapped the notebook shut and put it behind him.

"Even if these children are beggars, since they have called the police, we will take it seriously."

"Don't be so playful with me. I'm asking you where Wu Jun is."

Wu Guoliang saw that something was wrong and realized that Sun Dong's attitude towards him was not good.

This made him think that if Wu Jun really killed someone, he said in a panic: "Comrade police, I slept too soundly this morning and don't know where Wu Jun went. Even if my wife went out, I don't know."

Wu Guoliang was really anxious at this time. He really didn't know where Wu Jun was.

Sun Dong could tell at a glance that Wu Guoliang was not lying, and he whispered to the people around him.

The three or four police officers who arrived together split into two teams. "Where are Wu Jun's most frequented places? Does he have any close friends? Does he have a partner?"

Wu Guoliang scratched his head uncomfortably. Seeing Wu Guoliang remained silent for a long time, the neighbors around him urged him impatiently: "How come you don't understand your son at all? No wonder he killed someone."

"Please let go of me. Even if I scratched my bald head, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference."

.......

Sun Dong waved his hand and said, "Alright, you onlookers, please don't interrupt me, or else follow me back to the bureau to write your statements."

The aunts and aunties who were watching the fun begged for mercy: "Comrade police, we have a lot of work to do at home. I won't be able to finish it if I go to the Public Security Bureau to take a statement."

"Yes, I just unpacked this quilt and wanted to wash it and put some cotton inside."

........

"Why don't you just go home quickly? What are you still watching?"

When everyone heard that the police were ordering them to leave, they had no choice but to leave. The two or three people who remained were either shameless or worried about the Yao family's house.

As for Yao Qiuyue, she certainly had plenty of time to watch the fun.

Wu Guoliang thought that everyone could be driven away by the police. Even if the neighbors and passers-by left, there would still be more than ten people left in the yard.

Damao stood in front of Wu Guoliang, protecting the little beggars behind him with a defensive look on his face.

Seeing that Wu Guoliang still had time to look around, Sun Dong urged him, "Hurry up and answer my question. Stop looking around. You can't get away."

When Wu Guoliang heard that Sun Dong misunderstood that he was going to run away, he was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly: "The police are on the same day, the sun and the moon can testify, I don't want to run away."

"Wu Jun hasn't thought about visiting me yet. He usually just wanders around the streets. I don't know where he is now."

Yao Qiyue raised her eyebrows when she heard this. This Wu Jun really does nothing all day.

"He does have a few friends in South City..."

Wu Guoliang confessed honestly.

After Sun Dong finished recording, he looked at Wu Guoliang seriously and said, "I think this house belongs to Yao Qiyue, right? You're breaking the law by living here without permission, don't you know?"

Wu Guoliang said aggrievedly, "I'm Yao Qiyue's uncle. She doesn't live in this house either. What's wrong with me moving in for a while? How can it be illegal?"

"Besides, this is our family affair, it's none of your business."

Sun Dong sneered: "Now they have started popularizing the law. You should go and listen more often. The landlord is reporting the case. Even if you are her uncle, you can't do anything."

"Besides, if you report a crime, it's really my responsibility. This area is under the jurisdiction of our Public Security Bureau."

Wu Guoliang had an ugly look on his face, and Sun Dong stopped provoking him. He turned around and took a few people to capture Wu Jun.

Yao Qiyue watched a good show and quietly left while Wu Guoliang's attention was not on her.

When I returned to the clinic, I saw a little girl of four or five years old in Jiang Mei's ward, and a boy who was not much older than her was watching over her bed.

Seeing Yao Qiyue coming back, Xiaobao ran over and grabbed Yao Qiyue's sleeve: "Mom, you're back."

Yao Qiyue frowned as she looked at the pale little girl lying on the hospital bed. This should be the sister that Damao was talking about.

But she looked so real.

Yao Qiyue picked up Xiaobao and the little boy beside the bed looked at Xiaobao with envy. They were all children without mothers.

Seeing other mothers loving their children, it is inevitable to feel envious.

Yao Qiyue asked Jiang Ye in a low voice: "What's going on?"

Jiang Ye glanced at the bed and sighed, shaking his head. "I don't know either. Doctor Zhao said the child had broken his ribs after being kicked, so he asked us to help take care of him. There are no adults at home."

As the two were talking, Damao appeared in the clinic, dressed neatly. His clothes were still worn out and his pants were even a little too short.

Yao Qiyue saw that she washed her face and hands very cleanly.

And she could see that Damao was actually a girl.

Da Mao ran to the bedside and asked, "Xiao Wu, how are you?"

"Sister, the doctor said the bone is broken and it will cost a lot of money. Let's take Xiaowu back."

Damao slapped his brother on the head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I'll figure out the money issue. Don't worry about it."

Damao tucked Xiaowu in, then turned around and patted the boy's head: "San'er, take good care of Xiaowu here. I'll go out and think of a solution."

The little boy named Saner held Damao's hand. He was no longer a child and knew what Damao was trying to do.

They were still young and didn't earn much money. When they were hungry for a few days, Damao would go out to steal, and sometimes he would even snatch steamed buns.

But doing so is too risky. They cannot outrun the adults with long legs and most of the time they will get beaten up.

San'er didn't want Damao to go. He pleaded in a low voice, "My mother was just like Xiaowu, never to wake up. Damao is useless. We can't get that much money. Xiaowu is just waiting to die. It doesn't matter where he goes."

Yao Qiyue carried Xiaobao to the little boy and patted him on the head without saying a word.

"What nonsense?"

There were too many people in the ward, and Damao didn't see that the lady holding the child was Yao Qiyue. When she saw Yao Qiyue, she was a little dazed.

"Xiaowu just has broken ribs. Don't worry about the money. You two come with me."

Jiang Ye asked curiously, "Qiyue, do you know these kids?"

Yao Qiyue nodded: "We just met, but we are already very familiar with each other."

Jiang Ye: "???"

Jiang Mei on the hospital bed: "???"

Jiang Mei felt in her heart that although she didn't understand what her sister-in-law meant, whatever she said was right.
