Chapter 4597: Meeting an acquaintance
When he was about to reach the medical center, a woman's exclamation suddenly came from the alley in front.
Immediately, a figure in black ran out of the alley, holding something in his hand. Seeing Yang Ruoqing and Xiaohuan coming over, the man in black turned around and ran in the other direction. .
He ran very fast and hurriedly, knocking the men, women, and children out for a walk on the road.
“Quick, catch him!”
Immediately, a woman stumbled out of the alley. The woman's hair was disheveled. She sprained her feet before chasing her for two steps, and fell down while holding the alley bi.
"I recognize that sister-in-law. Her husband was also hospitalized in the hospital a few days ago. We talked together. Qing'er, please help me hold the baby. I'll go and see what's going on."
Xiaohuan pushed the second boy towards Yang Ruoqing and rushed over to help the woman.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? What's going on?"
Yang Ruoqing also came to them with the second boy in her arms. She only heard the woman pointing at the black clothes running in front of them. Man: "He is a thief. He robbed my wallet. In the wallet was the money my man bought for medicine!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaohuan became anxious, but as a helpless woman, she didn't know what to do, so she could only look up at Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing was about to hand the second boy and the thermos bucket in her arms to Xiaohuan, so that she could chase after him, when suddenly there was a commotion in front of her.
I saw a man jumping up next to a small stall in front of me. He was tall and had very long legs. He quickly caught up with the man in black, and then he pounced on the man in black. Thrown to the ground.
“How dare you snatch someone’s wallet in broad daylight? Let’s go and see the officials!”
The tall man grabbed the wallet from the man in black, strangled the man in black’s wrist and pulled him away. Pulled up from the ground.
The man in black struggled desperately, but was tightly controlled by the tall man and could not escape at all.
The tall man handed the purse in his hand to a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old who was with him, "Give it to that sister-in-law!"
The young man quickly held the purse in his hands. He ran to the entrance of the alley and returned the purse to the woman who had been robbed.
“Sister-in-law, be more careful next time.” said the young man.
The woman took the purse, held it against her heart with both hands, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, thank you for helping to get the purse back. That elder brother is very skillful, thanks to him." Xiaohuan quickly thanked the young man.
The young man waved his hand, straightened his back and said with a proud face: "No thanks, my eldest brother used to be a policeman, and he is the best at catching thieves!"
Xiaohuan nodded repeatedly and thanked him again.
The woman on the ground also came to her senses. With Xiaohuan's help, she stood up and bowed to the young man to thank him.
"This money is the money my man spent to buy medicine, or he borrowed it from relatives and friends. If this is robbed, my man will not be able to take the medicine. Brother, thank you brothers for helping me get my wallet back!"
"However, let's forget about this reporter. These thieves are not alone. They are all accomplices in this area. We are a small family and we don't dare to provoke them. As long as we get the money back, please tell me. Brother, say something..."
The woman said in a trembling voice with a look of fear on her face.
The young man was a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he turned around and went over there to spread the message.
His eldest brother originally had the thief in his hands, and was waiting for his brother to come over and take the victim over. Then he could go directly to the Yamen with all the witnesses and material evidence. As a result, after his brother whispered a few words to him, the eldest brother showed a look of surprise on his face and couldn't help but look past the crowd towards the entrance of the alley.
There was also a circle of people gathered at the entrance of the alley, most of them watching the excitement of the woman who was robbed.
The eldest brother’s eyes fell on a young woman holding a child in her arms, not because of how beautiful she looked, nor because her temperament was more noble than the others next to her, but because She was someone he was familiar with but hadn't seen for a long time.
Surprise flooded his face. When he was distracted for a moment, his hand suddenly let go, and the thief took the opportunity to slip away.
In the blink of an eye, he squeezed into the crowd watching the excitement, running rampantly and escaping. There were obviously his accomplices in the crowd who were helping to cover, interfere, and deliberately block the road to create chaos. The eldest brother saw that If you can't catch up and get the bad words from the master, you have to give up!
"Sister-in-law, please take this sister-in-law to the medical clinic to get medicine first. The medical clinic is right in front." Yang Ruoqing said to Xiaohuan.
Xiaohuan was surprised: "Qing'er, where are you going?"
Yang Ruoqing glanced at the 'big brother' over there, "It's an acquaintance. I'll go over and say hello to his big brother."
>
Hearing this, Xiaohuan felt relieved, "Sure, go ahead, I'll wait for you at the hospital."
"Sister-in-law, can you leave?" Xiaohuan asked that again woman.
The woman nodded: "I'm fine, let's go quickly!"
Xiaohuan took the second boy and the thermos bucket, looked at Yang Ruoqing, and turned around to go to the medical center.
Here, Yang Ruoqing also came to the 'big brother'.
"There are people coming and going on this street, and I was wondering which warrior is so brave and so skillful. It turns out to be you, Gao Jing!"
The tall man in front of me A stalwart man with a sense of awe-inspiring righteousness in his features was none other than Erya's father, Gao Jing.
Erya is the beggar mother and daughter that Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang met on the street of Wanghai County during the first lunar month.
Later, we met two more times. Because I really liked Erya's sensibleness and well-behavedness, and felt a little sorry for their experiences, they became familiar with each other.
I learned that Gao Jing used to be a policeman in the Tianhai County Yamen. At that time, he just happened to catch up with the scandal where Tang Yaozi was used by the Tianhai County Sheriff to increase the people's taxes by borrowing military pay. Gao Jing did not want to be a part of it. As a result, he was dismissed.
If I had not taken my family to flee to Wanghai County, my life would have been in danger.
Yang Ruoqing naturally wanted to explain clearly to Luo Fengtang and clear her name. Unexpectedly, Gao Jing actually had a book of evidence in his hand about the collusion between the local government and profiteers to rob the people of their wealth.
He gave the account book to Yang Ruoqing and asked Yang Ruoqing to take the account book to Tianhai County.
As for what happened next, of course the corrupt officials were brought down, and Gao Jing's account books served as ironclad evidence.
Speaking of this, Gao Jing actually deserves credit, but the court has not officially announced the punishment for the Tianhai County Sheriff, so there are no rewards or punishments for the relevant personnel involved in the case. announced.
"I didn't expect to meet you, Mrs. Luo, here. It's such an honor!" Gao Jing said with a smile.
He originally wanted to salute, but seeing so many people here, Mrs. Luo definitely didn't want to be high-profile, so Gao Jing resisted the urge to salute, but his words and demeanor were all respectful.
