Bravely Upholding Justice â 10.000 Yuan (1)
Things were a bit complicated and thrilling.
Jiang Xing liked to make noise with his band of brothers, but did not really do anything bad. Most of his âbrothersâ were from around the neighborhood. When they fought, they also did not cross the line, they absolutely did not dare to use knives or guns. If they really cripple or beat someone to death, it would cause a real enmity.
The incident happened more than ten days ago. Back then, Jiang Xing had been away from home for a few days and felt that it was time to come home.
By coincidence, he missed the last bus on the night he was returning to the village from the county town. In his desperation, he boldly stopped a passing car and asked if it was going to his village, and asked if he could hitch a ride. Isnât everyone in the world one big family? Even if he had to pay, it was still fine.
The driverâs face turned ugly and livid, he glanced at Jiang Xing and harshly told him to leave. The traffic police at the side saw that they were slowing the traffic and went over to scold them. The driver didnât want to mess with the police, and reluctantly let Jiang Xing get into the car and quickly left the scene.
But the further they went, the road became more unfamiliar, and he got further away from the way home. No matter how careless Jiang Xin was, he could still sense that something was wrong.
âBig Brother, did you take the wrong way?â
âBig Brother, this is not the way back to the village.â
âBig Brother, look at the map. Brother, check if youâre not in the wrong path. Big Brother, youâân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âShut up!â The other guy couldnât bear it anymore. Two strong men appeared together, tied Jiang Xing up and threw him into the trunk.
Jiang Xing was not the only one there, there was also a little boy.
Jiang Xing had gotten into a human traffickerâs car.
âFortunately, Iâm courageous and highly skilled, otherwise I really wouldnât be able to come back home.â Jiang Xing felt afraid after the incident, and he said with righteous indignation, âMom, tell me. Is this because society has declined and the heart of men arenât as pure as they used to be? That kid was lucky that he met me, otherwise he wouldnât even know where he would be taken to. That kid seemed like he couldnât talk. When I saw him, I was reminded of when Xiaoman was smaller. Whenever she was anxious, she couldnât say anything and could only go âaaa aaaâ. It was really pitiful.â
Jiang Xiuemeiâs face was expressionless as she listened to him until he was finished. Then she asked him, âOh. So what about the kid?â
âI think he⦠escaped?â Jiang Xing said. âWhen I was fighting the bad guys, I told him to run away first. It wouldnât be outrageous to say that I was bravely upholding justice right?â
Jiang Xiaomanâs eyes went wide and she immediately exclaimed, âWow!â as she clapped her hands and praised him. âUncle is amazing!â
âYouâre really great at making up stories.â Jiang Xiumei rolled her eyes and poured cold water on his performance. âWho else would believe your bullshit other than Xiaoman?â
Jiang Xing stroked his head and sighed, no longer trying to explain.
He also didnât know if the kid really managed to escape from the danger. If he didnât then his âbravely upholding justiceâ act could not be considered a success, and he wouldâve taken a knife for nothing.
He lowered his eyes and saw that Jiang Xiaoman was still eagerly looking at him, obviously treating it like a story time.
Jiang Xing didnât know whether to laugh or cry. He picked her up and sat her down on his knees, saying âMy Xiaoman is a lucky star, in the future she will definitely be someone amazing!â
Jiang Xiaoman waved her small fist, âI am amazing! The system said that my status is irreplaceable, the most useful person in the world! This world definitely cannot do without me.â
System could only think, ââ¦whatever makes you happy, host.â
Jiang Xing laughed loudly, agreeing with her.
As for who this system was, Jiang Xing did not ask.
Jiang Xiaoman often talked about the system and other inexplicable things. Ever since Jiang Xiumei asked the shaman to do the exorcism, she hadnât rambled as much.
This system was probably her friend or some kind of small animal.
