Chapter 139: Righteousness and Courage in the Square
Shi Tao was ready to go back to the westward migration company, and felt a little embarrassed to always ask Manager Liu to buy train tickets for such a long time.
This time, I didn't buy too much, so I decided to go alone and buy train tickets in person, so I didn't bother Manager Liu anymore.
In the afternoon, the weather was a little cloudy, and I was worried that it would be difficult to walk in the rain, so I decided to leave early. Shi Tao brought an umbrella, and Shang Mei specially asked for leave, and sent him to the station and went back.
Shi Tao took the train to the provincial railway station and went to the ticket office to buy a ticket, but what embarrassed Shi Tao was that he didn't buy a sleeper ticket directly to Shanbei City, and even a connecting ticket to the western provincial city did not have a sleeper.
Shi Tao is reluctant to sit on a hard seat for a long trip, and there is a reason why he is reluctant to say.
When he was a child, he played in the mud puddle and crossed the tail vertebrae, and after sitting for a long time, although it was not very painful, it would be very tiring, which was more tiring than letting him do a day's work, so he would buy a sleeper ticket every time he went on a long trip, even if it was at his own expense.
Shi Tao knew that there was an inside line in Manager Liu's ticket hall, and if he wanted to buy sleeper tickets, he had to go through Manager Liu's help.
"Manager Liu is really embarrassed, I didn't want to bother you anymore, but there is no way, I can't buy a sleeper ticket, please help see if I can buy today's ticket." ”
Shi Tao had to call Manager Liu for help.
"Where are you now?" Manager Liu heard that Shi Tao wanted to buy a ticket, worried about whether Shi Tao would be able to get the ticket in time.
"I'm at the provincial train station. Shi Tao had no choice but to reveal his location.
"So, come to me, it's still early, it's three hours after leaving the car, and our people haven't gone to work yet. After waiting for her to go to work for a while, let her give a ticket again, if you really don't have a ticket, you can send you directly to the bus, you can rest assured. ”
Manager Liu was very enthusiastic, firstly, to reassure Shi Tao about the ticket, and secondly, to invite Shi Tao to him for a temporary rest.
"Can't I just wait near the station? I'm sorry to trouble you and delay your business when I get there. ”
Shi Tao knew that Manager Liu was enthusiastic, and he would definitely have to accompany him when he went there, so that the family could not take care of the business, and he would definitely keep him for dinner, which made him very unhappy.
Shi Tao feels that he has no business dealings with others now, and he really can't open his mouth if he is cheeky enough to eat.
"You are too polite, don't delay my business, business matters, there are subordinates to do it, I have nothing to do at this time, just you came to chat with me." ”
In order to let Shi Tao pass, Manager Liu actually said this, Shi Tao is not good to refuse, after all, he has to ask people to buy tickets on his behalf, and he seems to be too pretentious if he insists too much.
In this way, Shi Tao agreed to go to Manager Liu, but fortunately, the distance is not far, and he can walk there in a few minutes.
Shi Tao walked out of the ticket hall to the square, and just saw people chasing each other.
There was a young man in front of him, about eighteen or nineteen, who struggled to run away, shouting "Get out of the way!" and from time to time his hands pushed away the people in front of him who were blocking the road.
Some people will let him stumble, some people will be spilled on the ground by the things he pushes, and some people will even be pushed down or knocked down, causing a lot of scolding.
And there was a young man about twenty-eight or nineteen years old in the back who was also trying to catch up. The young man chased after him and shouted, "Catch the thief!"
Originally, the square was very wide, and some passengers had just gotten off the train and left the station, and the density of people was relatively large for a while, although it hindered the speed of the young man's pursuit, it also slowed down the speed of the young man's escape
The young man was about to catch up, very close, the young man rushed forward, jumped up and directly threw the young man to the ground, twisted the young man's left arm behind his back, and the young man was caught.
The young man struggled and shouted in his mouth, "Let go of me!
"You will rob it openly in public, even if it is nosy, I will take your mouse!"
The young man pressed the young man with his left knee, so that he could not turn over.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman of about 40 years old ran up from behind, covering her ears with her hands, blood dripping from between her fingers, and crying as she ran: "Catch the thief! Catch the thief! This is a robbery! He snatched my earrings!"
Shi Tao saw that he probably understood what was going on, so he gathered with the curious crowd.
"What about the things, what about the stolen things, hand them over! If you don't hand them over, you'll call the police!"
The young man said as he broke the young man's left hand with his other hand and took out a large golden earring.
"Is that it?"
The young man raised the earring in his right hand and asked the middle-aged woman.
The woman held out her hand and took it, "Yes, yes, this is it, and there is one." ”
The young man broke the young man's right hand again, and there was another golden earring in it.
The lad also gave it to the middle-aged woman.
"Thank you, thank you so much! You are acting bravely, I will definitely send you a pennant. ”
The middle-aged woman didn't care that her ears were still dripping blood, and she kept thanking the young man.
At this time, the young man who was pressed under him shouted: "You take the things back, just let me go." ”
"No, call the police!" the middle-aged woman's anger has not subsided.
"Call the police!" There were also people around who shouted to call the police, but no one called, not even the middle-aged woman.
Hearing people shouting for the police, the young man was a little scared, and his attitude changed greatly, and he was no longer as domineering as he was at the beginning.
"Spare me! Please spare me! I haven't grabbed anything, so don't call the police, let me go!"
shouted and begged for mercy, and even cried.
At this time, although the young man is hateful, he is also a little pitiful.
The young man still didn't let go, looked at the people around him, then looked at the middle-aged woman, and the person who shouted for the police stopped shouting.
"You can spare it, you have to apologize to this eldest sister, admit your mistakes, and I'll let you go. ”
When the young man heard this, it was as if he had been pardoned.
"Sister, I was wrong, I shouldn't have snatched your earrings, I was wrong, you can spare me. ”
repeatedly begged for mercy, and finally let the eldest sister relent, and the eldest sister no longer insisted on calling the police.
The young man finally let go of the young man who snatched the earrings.
The young man ran away in a panic, not caring about patting the dust on his body.
The middle-aged woman bowed to the young man again and thanked him, and said that she would let the young man leave his name in the unit so that he could give him a pennant.
The young man hurriedly waved his hand, "It should be done, no, no." It was a resignation, and he persuaded the middle-aged woman to hurry up and get some medicine, so as not to get an ear infection.
The middle-aged woman covered her ears and hurried away.
At this time, Shi Tao stepped forward and greeted the young man.
Shi Tao already recognized who the young man was, he was Guo Shuai.
Guo Shuai is still so handsome, his hair is still a little longer, Shi Tao has long since stopped having long hair, he is now a board inch.
Guo Shuai patted the white T-shirt, because of running, sweat soaked the back of his front heart, and patted the dust on his jeans.
When the young man was knocked to the ground just now, a piece of the right knee of the blue jeans was snatched, and this hole added a bit of chic to Guo Shuai. Fortunately, the knee was not broken.
"I really have eyes today, I saw the heroic behavior of righteousness and bravery, I really didn't expect that this hero turned out to be a handsome guy, Guo Shuai. ”
Shi Tao stepped forward with a smile and praised Guo Shuai.
Guo Shuai turned his head and saw that it was Shi Tao.
"How can it be so coincidental that you can see it. Where there is righteousness and courage, it is just a sword to help. ”
"It's really humble, righteousness and courage are synonyms with drawing a knife to help, and you are very good at boasting about yourself. ”
Shi Tao stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Guo Shuai, in fact, he didn't want to shake hands with Guo Shuai, today's handshake was out of respect for Guo Shuai's behavior today.
Guo Shuai stretched out his hand and shook it.
"I didn't expect us to meet on such an occasion, and I always wanted to go to the factory to see you again, but I didn't have the right time. ”
"It just so happens that I have time to see you now. Shi Tao said with a smile.
Guo Shuai also laughed when he heard Shi Tao be so humorous.
"Where are you going?" asked Guo Shuai Shi Tao.
"Oh, I'm going on a business trip to a friend's to wait for a ticket. ”
"Far away?"
"It's not far ahead. Shi Tao pointed to the direction where Manager Liu's shop was located.
"I just happened to be going over there, let's go, let's go over together. ”
Guo Shuai and Shi Tao walked side by side in the same direction, and at the same time wanted to take Shi Tao's luggage and carry it for him.
Shi Tao was embarrassed to let the family carry his backpack for him, and didn't let him help.
"Where are you going, going to the square to catch thieves?"
Shi Tao didn't know how Guo Shuai could appear here.
"Hey, what kind of thief am I catching, I'm looking for my wife, and I happened to pass by here. When I saw someone reaching out and pulling someone's earrings in broad daylight, I couldn't help but help. Guo Shuai said.
"Your wife is that beauty, is she in front?" Shi Tao heard Guo Shuai mention his wife, and that beautiful woman appeared in his mind.
Because people are really beautiful, it is impossible for Shi Tao to forget.
"Ah, helping her cousin, I called and told her to go home, and her cousin insisted on letting me go, saying that I would go back after dinner. Guo Shuai said.
"Oh, I've gone to a relative's house, you're also a string of relatives, haha!" Shi Tao said with a smile.
"It's not a string of relatives, she often comes here to help, and my cousin has opened a small company and can't be busy, so she can come over when she is free. I'm a regular visitor, but eight times out of ten I've come to pick her up. Guo Shuai explained.
"Why do you still need to pick it up, can't she go home by herself? Is it such a beautiful wife, afraid that others will rob her? Shi Tao said with a smile.
"You're right, that's what I thought. People won't let me pick it up. Guo Shuai also smiled with Shi Tao.
"Is your house far from here?" Shi Tao asked Guo Shuai.
"It's not too far, it's five or six stops away by bus. By the way, just ask me, where are you going?" Guo Shuai asked Shi Tao rhetorically.
"Oh, the company has built a branch factory in the Western Province, and I went to work there. Shi Tao said.
"You go there to work, and you're not here at the main factory anymore. What about Yang Qiong? What about Yang Qiong? Won't she go with you?"
Guo Shuai stopped, the smile on his face disappeared, and he looked puzzled.
"Yang Qiong, she is in the Northern Province, and she is not with me. ”
Shi Tao also stopped, and there was no smile on his face, Yang Qiong was her eternal pain.
"Then aren't you living separately, and it's not appropriate for the company to arrange it like this?"
"We've never been together, we're not separated. ”
"How is this possible?"
Guo Shuai didn't believe what Shi Tao said at all.
