Chapter 359 - Li Ao in Jiangbei City (1/2)
Chapter 359 Li Ao in Jiangbei CityNalan Wuxia was on duty today. She just got a call about a big fight. When she arrived, she saw many gangsters and a man and a woman lying all over the ground, and Qin Haodong holding a kid standing beside. She also noticed that the man and woman had been beaten so badly that she could no longer see their appearances.
Qin Haodong explained, “This is a criminal gang. They steal children to beg for money and committed other crimes.”
Tang Tang came over, took Nalan Wuxia’s hand, and called, “Third Mama, these are bad guys. They didn’t feed the little boy enough food, but fed him medicine. You must arrest them.”
“Er…”
Nalan Wuxia looked embarrassed. Although Tang Tang often called her Third Mama, Lin Momo was not present at that time. Now Tang Tang’s mother was present, Nalan Wuxia felt a little embarrassed.
However, Lin Momo didn’t change her expression very much. She came over and said, “Sister Nalan, I’ve recorded what happened. I’ll send you the video now.”
Then she sent Nalan Wuxia the video of the squat man confessing to the crime.
“Thank you, Sister Momo.”
Nalan Wuxia and Lin Momo both knew about each other, but they got nervous when facing each other.
Turning to the policeman behind her, Nalan Wuxia order, “Take all these people back to the police station for questioning.”
“Officer, you must punish these beasts. Make them go away for life…”
“Being sentenced to prison is not enough to atone for their sins. The two principal criminals should have been shot for five minutes…”
“This kind of scum should be sentenced to death, or they will continue to harm the people after they get out…”
Onlookers expressed their displeasure at the perpetrators. Then Qin Haodong set the kid down on the bench next to him and gingerly stabbed him with silver needles to comb his damaged meridians with his Green Wood Genuine Qi.
After a few minutes, the child opened his eyes and began to cry.
Someone in the crowd said, “The child must be hungry. How evil these human traffickers are!”
“These damn human traffickers used this kid to make money, but they don’t feed him well. They even tried to save the money of milk powder…”
At this time, a middle-aged woman came over and delivered a nursing bottle, saying, “Young man, this is the milk powder I brought for my son. It’s still warm. Feed the child.”
Lin Momo, who was more experienced in raising children, took the bottle and felt the temperature. Then she began to feed the boy.
The child was really hungry. When he felt the pacifier, he immediately gulped it down. Soon, he drank all the milk from the bottle, then opened his big black eyes and looked around curiously.
Qin Haodong told Nalan Wuxia, “Since the kid was stolen by these human traffickers, I’ll leave him to you. I hope you find his birth parents soon.”
“Okay, I see.”
Nalan Wuxia took the baby and turned to get into the patrol wagon. By this time the squat man and those gangsters had been taken away by the police, and the crowd began to scatter.
As Qin Haodong, Lin Momo, and Tang Tang strolled along, Lin Momo looked grave and thoughtful.
Qin Haodong asked, “What? Do you still think of that?”
Lin Momo stopped and said, “I don’t understand. They are able-bodied and capable of working. Why don’t they work hard on their own instead of kneeling down and exchanging their dignity for charity? Is their dignity worth so little?”
Qin Haodong said, “Well, it’s easy to understand. Everyone has their own view. The world is such a big place, and there are always people who love leisure and hate labor. They are so lazy that they want to get something for nothing. Dignity and face are important to us, but in their eyes they are worthless.”
Tang Tang was vaguely aware of their conversation and asked, “Papa, did they really steal that little boy?”
Qin Haodong replied, “Yeah, there are always some bad guys in this world who like stealing kids, so you have to be careful in the future. Don’t eat food from strangers or walk with them.”
Tang Tang nodded vigorously. “Yes! Tang Tang is the most obedient!”
Lin Momo said, “These traffickers really deserve to be hacked to death. When they stole one child, they had destroyed several families. They steal the child and don’t treat him like a human being. They don’t even feed him well.”
Qin Haodong said, “We can’t help it. It’s not uncommon in Huaxia. These people take advantage of people’s sympathy for children, so they steal children to use as begging tools. They even disabled some of the children, making them more miserable, because it is easier to win people’s sympathy.”
“So, sometimes, when we show our kindness to others, we should tell whether they are cheaters or not. Otherwise we’re doing bad guys a favor.”
Lin Momo nodded and said, “I get it!”
Today’s event is not only a lesson for Tang Tang, but also a lesson for Lin Momo, who was always on top of the world. It gave her a new understanding of the darkness at the bottom of society.
After experiencing this incident, the three people lost interest in continuing to play. They directly drove back to the Lin’s Villa. Just after dinner, Qin Haodong’s phone rang. It was Long Haisheng.
After pressing the answer button, Qin Haodong said, “Brother Long, what’s up?”
It took a fight for Qin Haodong and Long Haisheng to get know each other. Although Long Haisheng was in the underworld, he could always keep the bottom line of being a human, which made Qin Haodong respect him very much, and also had a good impression on him.
“Brother Qin, can you come to me? Dafei’s been hurt, and I want you to treat him.”
