After saving the person, Zhou Ziwen had time to talk.
"Uncle, are you okay?" Zhou Ziwen glanced at the middle-aged man. Although he looked a little embarrassed, they were all skin injuries and were not serious.
"I'm fine. Thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I would probably be in a much worse situation."
The middle-aged man looked at Zhou Ziwen with gratitude.
"Uncle, you're welcome. I happened to be passing by and saw these gangsters robbing them, so I helped out." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man expressed his gratitude to Zhou Ziwen again, and then asked: "Comrade, I don't know how to call you?"
"My name is Zhou Ziwen. Uncle, just call me Ziwen." Zhou Ziwen said.
"My name is Liu Defa, and I am an engineer at the county machinery factory." Liu Defa reported his family name.
Zhou Ziwen had a surprised expression on his face when he heard this. He didn't expect that this uncle turned out to be an engineer in the machinery factory.
Liu Defa saw Zhou Ziwen's expression and asked with a smile: "Ziwen, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"It's okay. I didn't expect that uncle is an engineer in a machinery factory. It's amazing." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
In this era, mechanical engineers are great talents, but he didn't expect to meet one today.
When Liu Defa heard this, he waved his hand and said: "What a big deal, he is just an ordinary worker."
Zhou Ziwen smiled when he heard this and said nothing more.
He knows that workers in this era have a humble quality, and no matter how talented they are, they will not show off too much.
"Uncle, what are you going to do with these people?" Zhou Ziwen asked.
When Liu Defa heard this, he glanced at the gangsters lying on the ground, with a hint of hatred on his face.
"These people must not be let go easily." Liu Defa said.
Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen nodded, and then said, "What are you going to do with them?"
"Of course, leave it to the police comrades and let the law punish them." Liu Defa said bitterly.
Zhou Ziwen nodded, then stepped forward and pulled off the masks of several gangsters.
After removing the scarf, I discovered that the robbers were all young. They looked to be only 18 or 19 years old, with childish looks on their faces.
"Are you educated youth?" Zhou Ziwen asked with a frown.
After hearing this, several people had expressions of horror on their faces, but they did not speak.
Seeing the expressions of several people, Zhou Ziwen still didn't understand. These people were really educated youths.
"Which brigade are you educated youth from?" Zhou Ziwen kicked the person in front of him and asked.
After hearing this, several people looked at each other and didn't know how to answer.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say anything. I will hand you over to the police comrades later, and someone will naturally interrogate you." Seeing this, Zhou Ziwen said.
After hearing this, several people had expressions of horror on their faces, and one of them even burst into tears. "I said, we are educated youth from Shatian Village." The educated youth in front of Zhou Ziwen replied tremblingly.
"From Shatian Village? Why haven't I seen you?" Zhou Ziwen frowned.
He has been to Shatin Village several times. Although he is not very familiar with the educated youth there, he has met them face to face.
In his impression, he had never seen these people before.
"I, we just went to the countryside not long ago." The educated youth who was kicked by Zhou Ziwen said.
Zhou Ziwen nodded when he heard this. No wonder he hadn't seen these people before. That's why.
"You didn't work hard in the countryside, but you came here to rob. You are really good." Zhou Ziwen looked at the few people and didn't know what to say.
After hearing this, several people lowered their heads in shame, and they didn't know how to answer.
After a moment of silence, Zhou Ziwen said: "Uncle Liu, these are educated youths, why don't they be handed over to the Educated Youth Office?"
"Educated youth?" Liu Defa frowned. He did not expect that these gangsters turned out to be educated youth.
"Yes, these people are all educated youth, and it is appropriate to hand them over to the Educated Youth Office." Zhou Ziwen nodded and said.
Liu Defa was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "Okay, let's leave it to the Educated Youth Office." Although the Educated Youth Office is only a department that manages educated youth, it also has certain rights, and it is no problem to deal with a few educated youth who have made mistakes.
After making the decision, Zhou Ziwen and Liu Defa escorted several educated youths to the Educated Youth Office.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen walking in with a few educated youths, he was stunned for a moment.
When the staff of the Educated Youth Office saw Zhou Ziwen walking in with several educated youths, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked warily: "What's going on with you?"
Zhou Ziwen hurriedly stepped forward and said politely: "Hello, comrade, I am Zhou Ziwen from Dabazi Village. I encountered these educated youths robbing Uncle Liu Defa on the road today, so I subdued them, thinking The Educated Youth Office knows the educated youth well, so it sent them here, hoping to handle this matter properly. ”
After listening to Zhou Ziwen's explanation, the staff member's face softened slightly, his eyes fell on the dejected educated youths, and he said seriously: "What's going on with you guys? Educated youths go to the countryside to receive training and contribute to rural construction. , how could you do such illegal and criminal things?”
When several educated youths heard the scolding of the staff, their bodies shivered, and their heads were so low that they almost hit the ground. One of the educated youths cried and said: "Comrade, we were wrong. We just went to the countryside not long ago, and we did something wrong because we were confused." Please give us a chance.”
The staff member frowned and said seriously: "Opportunities are not granted by asking for them. If you make such a mistake, you must bear the consequences. Tell me, why did you want to rob?"
Several educated youths looked at each other, and finally the crying educated youth said: "After we went to the countryside, the living conditions were too difficult, and we really couldn't stand it. And we didn't have money to buy some daily necessities, so we just impulsively..."
The staff sighed and said: "Hardships are temporary. You should face them positively instead of choosing an illegal path. Do you know that your actions will not only bring serious consequences to yourself, but also to other educated youths?" Discredit.”
Zhou Ziwen looked on and said, "Yes, you just went to the countryside and you may not be used to it yet, but this cannot be the reason for you to make mistakes. This is how everyone came here. As long as you work hard, life will always be good. Get up.”
Liu Defa also said: "I understand your difficulties, but robbery can never be forgiven. If I hadn't met Comrade Zhou Ziwen today, I might have been in catastrophe."
When several educated youths heard the words of the staff, Zhou Ziwen and Liu Defa, they all lowered their heads in shame. They knew that they were wrong, and they were very wrong.
The staff looked at the few educated youths, were silent for a moment, and then said: "I will report this matter truthfully. How to deal with it depends on the decision from above."
Zhou Ziwen and Liu Defa both nodded when they heard this. They knew that this matter was no longer something they could interfere with. (End of chapter)
