Chapter 122: Lu Xiaohua? A human trafficker?
Chapter 122: Lu Xiaohua? A human trafficker?
There was a young man in a police uniform standing in the yard, and Daya was being led by him. Standing opposite him was Lu Xiaohua.
What puzzled Zhou Ruoyu was that the atmosphere in the yard was extremely tense. Daya was crying while looking at the male police officer's face, while Lu Xiaohua opposite was so angry that her face turned blue and her fists were clenched tightly. It was unknown what she was angry about.
When the people in the yard heard Zhou Ruoyu's shout, they all looked towards the gate. The male police officer also turned around, his eyes bright, and his hand holding Daya never loosened at all.
"Uncle, this is my aunt, and the one behind her is my mother." Daya explained while sobbing with her head tilted back.
At this time, Zhou Shufen had also walked in. She was stroking her waist with her hands, holding up her bulging belly, and she was so nervous that she stammered: "Public security comrade, what's wrong with Daya and Xiaohua?"
The male police officer heard the implicit meaning of the words clearly, so what was the matter that warranted calling the police?
He took a step forward, his face cold and expressionless. "Hello, I'm from the Luancheng Public Security Bureau. Today, while on patrol, I found this little girl alone at the entrance of an alley not far from the school. Just as we were about to approach her to inquire about the situation, the female comrade grabbed her and dragged her away..."
Zhou Shufen got anxious when she heard this. She grabbed Daya and asked anxiously, "Why didn't you go to school during school hours? Why did you run away? Did someone bully you at school? Tell Mom!"
Zhou Ruoyu looked up at the sky speechlessly: Hey my grandma, can you please figure out what’s happening with the police first before you talk about whether you’ve been bullied or not?
"Sister Zhou, you're still pregnant, don't be anxious."
Zhou Ruoyu said this to the male police officers. Who wouldn't be nervous when meeting a police officer? You'd better not make the next words too exciting.
After watching the male police officer glance at Zhou Shufen's belly, she turned around and asked Lu Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, what's going on?"
Lu Xiaohua also felt wronged and burst into tears: "Sister-in-law..."
sister in law?
There was a real visual sensation of thunder rumbling in the sky and blazing fire on the ground. She couldn't help but look up at the sun, which was indeed rising from the east.
She and Lu Qinchuan have been married for several months, and this is the first time Lu Xiaohua calls her sister-in-law!
Zhou Ruoyu swallowed and tried to keep her voice calm: "Well, talk to sister-in-law about what happened. Don't cry..."
"Comrades in the Public Security Bureau shouldn't wrongly accuse people for no reason. I brought Daya back home and he followed me home. He even accused me of being a human trafficker, Mingming..."
Lu Xiaohua was so angry that she burst into tears, covering her face with her hands.
Zhou Ruoyu understood. When Lu Xiaohua saw Daya outside the school, she immediately stepped forward to take her home. Daya must have started crying because she didn't want to go back. She was seen by a police comrade who was patrolling by the time. He followed her and caught her red-handed!
The male police officer was clearly unmoved by the woman's tears. He said in a cold voice, "Every human trafficker we deal with is more or less familiar with the victimized children, which makes it easier for her to act!"
"Comrade Public Security, let me say a few words,"
Zhou Ruoyu took a careful look at the young male police officer. He was tall and thin, with a fair complexion and a determined look in his eyes.
"I am the lover of Lu Qinchuan, the commander of the independent regiment of the military region. This woman is Lu Qinchuan's sister. We have a very close relationship with this girl. You must have misunderstood."
Zhou Shufen then realized the wind was blowing in the wrong direction. She wiped Daya's face of snot and tears and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, this is my home. How could human traffickers take a child to a child's home?"
The male police officer blinked his eyes and coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment. Then he asked Daya, "Little friend, didn't she force you?"
Daya puffed out her cheeks and glared at Lu Xiaohua: "She dragged me back here by force! I want to play outside, I don't want to go to school!"
The male police officer's face was already a little unnatural, and he asked in a low voice: "Then why didn't you tell her earlier that she was going to take you home?"
"Uncle, you didn't ask me. She dragged me into the yard and you came in."
Daya looked at him with her big wet eyes in confusion.
……
"Comrade Public Security, you are new here, right?"
After sizing up and down the incompetent male police officer again, Zhou Ruoyu's tone became somewhat contemptuous. Although she couldn't stand Lu Xiaohua's appearance, it was not the turn of an outsider to bully her.
"I...we're currently investigating a child trafficking case. Perhaps I'm too impatient, and there seems to be some misunderstanding. Since there's nothing else to do, I'll go back first."
As he said this, he smiled politely at everyone and turned to walk out.
"Wait!" Lu Xiaohua wiped her tears and took a deep breath. "Shouldn't you be responsible for your actions? At least you need to apologize to me!"
Oh, Lu Qinchuan is really brave. How many people in this era dare to challenge the public security comrades? Lu Xiaohua actually wants him to apologize.
Zhou Ruoyu silently gave Lu Xiaohua a thumbs up in her heart, thinking that she was a great person.
The male police officer pursed his lips, and his originally resolute eyes were now covered with a layer of darkness. It was obvious that he had never expected that a female comrade could make such a request.
"You don't have to apologize, I'll go to the Luancheng Public Security Bureau tomorrow to find your leaders. Public security comrades serve the people, and you're the first person to treat the people as enemies and still have such a clear conscience!"
Although Lu Xiaohua's chest was heaving with anger, Zhou Ruoyu saw Lu Xiaohua's true character at this time - arrogant and domineering!
After all, all the Lu brothers and sisters were like this. If she just evaded the issue and let it go, Zhou Ruoyu would look down on her.
The male police officer's eyes darkened, and he whispered, "I apologize for my recklessness today. I'm sorry for causing you any injustice!"
"What did you say? I didn't hear you!"
……
"My name is Xu Zhe, and I'm from the Luancheng Public Security Bureau. I solemnly apologize to you here: I unreasonably suspected the people without sufficient evidence, and I have wronged you, a female comrade!"
Xu Zhe's eyes were still bright when he spoke, but his expression was extremely serious and solemn, just like a child who had made a mistake and was admitting his mistake to his parents.
Zhou Ruoyu, who was standing aside as a spectator, stared at the sincere-looking man in front of her, feeling both angry and amused. The originally tense atmosphere not only eased, but even became inexplicably funny.
Daya was dragged home by Lu Xiaohua, and she was naturally angry with Lu Xiaohua.
The previous anger that he dared not speak out now turned into a fierce glare: "Aunt Xiaohua, you are so mean, you grabbed my arm and it hurts, it's worse than kidnapping a child!"
