Chapter 206: Upholding Justice
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The onlookers didn’t know the truth, but they felt that whoever was weak deserved sympathy. Because Yuan Shu was the one who attacked first, they thought that the man was right. However, now that they heard that Yuan Shu wasn’t afraid of the police at all, everyone’s att.i.tude changed.
Nowadays, people liked to take videos and share them. Naturally, there were also people who took out their phones to take photos of the process. There were also people who kept pus.h.i.+ng forward in order to take a clearer picture. Right on the heels of that, a girl in a light yellow suspenders dress was squeezed out of the crowd.
When the man heard that they were going to check for fingerprints, he panicked. He took out a small knife from his pocket and cut Yuan Shu’s whip. He freed his right hand and pulled the girl who had been squeezed out of the crowd. He clamped her with one hand and placed the small knife on her neck with the other.
The girl screamed in fear as the sharp blade pressed against her neck. The cold feeling made her tremble. “Help!”
The man only wanted to steal something and didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. He was only holding the girl hostage because he was in a panic. Now that he saw the crowd surrounding him, he immediately shouted, “Move aside! Make way for me!”
Yuan Shu frowned at him. What she despised the most was a man pointing a knife at a weak woman. Such a person had no morals at all. If he was let off, he would only be the sc.u.m of society in the future!
Yuan Shu gave Jiang Chen a look to signal him to evacuate the crowd and call the police.
Jiang Chen immediately understood and nodded. Then, as he evacuated the crowd, he whispered to a person holding a cell phone, “Call the police.”
On the other side, Yuan Shu was trying to attract the man’s attention. “You just want to escape. You don’t want the matter to blow up, so put down the knife first and don’t hurt anyone.”
The man was very agitated. “Shut up! It’s all your fault for causing trouble and ruining things for me today. Just you wait. I won’t let you off!”
Yuan Shu sneered. It was hard to say who wouldn’t let go of who. He was still so stubborn even at a time like this!
Yuan Shu said patiently, “Sure, if you don’t let me off, come at me and let the girl beside you go.”
The man didn’t fall for it. “Do you think I’m stupid? There are so many people now. If 1 let the girl go, will I be able to escape from here?”
At this moment, Jiang Chen had already started to evacuate the crowd. He walked to the blind spot beside the man, then secretly stretched out his foot and tripped a chubby young man who was retreating.
The young man was still holding the roasted corn in his hand and didn’t even forget to eat two mouthfuls of corn as he retreated. He didn’t pay attention to his feet at all. After being tripped, he fell to the ground with a thud, causing him to cry out in pain.
The kidnapper’s attention was attracted by this commotion. Like a frightened bird, he suddenly turned around. Yuan Shu took this opportunity to swing the whip in her hand and knock away the knife in his hand.
The knife fell to the ground. The girl in the yellow suspenders was so afraid that her legs went weak. Without the man’s support, she fell to the ground.
Jiang Chen glanced at Yuan Shu and gave her a rea.s.suring look. Then he walked to the man quickly. When he was one meter away from the man, he jumped up and kicked the man’s waist.
The man lost his balance and fell to the ground.
At this moment, Yuan Shu walked to the girl in the yellow suspenders and took off her s.h.i.+rt to cover the girl’s legs as she said softly, “Don’t be afraid. Stand up first.”
Tears streamed down the girl’s face, but she was comforted by Yuan Shu’s words and she forced herself to stand up.
At this moment, the man stood up and picked up the knife again. Then, he raised the knife at Yuan Shu and rushed over.
When Yuan Shu heard the commotion behind her, her eyes narrowed and she glanced sideways at the man behind her. Instinctively, she turned around to whip him.
Jiang Chen, who was standing at the side, had already noticed the man’s actions. At the same time, he executed a handsome right kick.
The whip hit the man’s abdomen and his right leg kicked the man’s back. This pincer attack caused his teeth to break his lips and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
After Yuan Shu threw the whip to Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen took the whip and tied him up on the spot. The two of them cooperated very smoothly..
