(284) Freedom restored

A crowd gathered outside a two-story building in the center of town, some holding wooden signs and shouting slogans: "Let them go!" There are also people who gather together to talk to each other.

This morning, a joyful news spread throughout the town of Wusong and became the talk of the people in the streets and alleys.

Last night, three of the town's most notorious snakes entered the Crow's Inn to drink, trying to harass a beautiful out-of-town girl.

But this time they provoked someone they should never have provoked, and the three of them were severely beaten by the companions of the out-of-town girl, who were now lying in the town's medical station, and their wails of pain could be heard from far outside the ward.

Although they were natives, no one sympathized with these gangsters, but they continued to applaud, and the townspeople who had been bullied by them on a daily basis applauded.

After the two out-of-town tourists had been detained by the sheriff due to the violence, the townspeople of Wusong Town spontaneously organized themselves to want the sheriff to release them, and this morning's lively rally took place.

An old gentleman in a black tuxedo and polite mannered brandished a walnut cane and shouted loudly into the building: "Heroes of the imperial capital! Well done! Those three bastards were molesting my daughter in the street last week! This kind of scum should be beaten to death! ”

Another craftsman in a leather apron then shouted, "That's right! It's time to fight! My shoemaker has been harassed by those guys for a long time, and now it's time to stop for a while! Thanks to the heroes! Helped me teach those scoundrels a lesson! ”

"That's right! Kick their ass! These bastards stole my planters! He also peed on my courtyard wall, making my door smell of urine! A wrinkled-skinned old lady shouted, "These outsiders have done righteous deeds, please let them go, and all of our townspeople are willing to vouch for them!" Gentlemen of the Sheriff! ”

The other townspeople who had gathered outside also coaxed: "Let go!" Let go! ”

Several public officials were working in a room in the building, and the nameplate on the door was painted in red paint with the words "Wusong Town Public Security Management Office".

A gendarmerie knight in a chaser uniform looked out the window worriedly:

"What should I do? The demonstrative townsfolk surrounded the place, did they want to riot? ”

The sheriff sitting at the table waved his hand at him: "Riot? Come on! You guy just love to worry! Take it easy, those townsfolk don't have any ill will, in my opinion...... It's kind of fun, it's like a carnival.

If you look outside, it's not just people holding signs and shouting slogans, but also people who are selling hot dogs, and housewives who are holding their children to watch the fun. ”

Another gendarme said, "Haha, don't those townspeople, even I find it very enjoyable!" How many times have these three gangsters been dealt with and educated by us? They are still unrepentant, and they are all doing mischief in the town, because they can't be punished severely because they haven't committed any serious crimes.

It's good now, let's start with the girl in the imperial capital, I'm dumbfounded, I've met a ruthless person! If I want to, I deserve to be beaten! ”

"I think so too, but then again, we are also very embarrassed, after all, those out-of-town tourists beat people, and they hit so hard, if we don't arrest them, it will be our dereliction of duty."

A stern-looking gendarme asked, "Mr. Sheriff, do you want me to go out and blow up the townspeople?" This gathering will affect our office, and if we beat a few people with batons, these rabble will soon disperse. ”

"Put the baton down for me! Don't do anything to the townspeople! The sheriff reached out and snatched the baton from the hands of the gendarmes and rebuked loudly:

"There is no need to make such an unpleasant scene, His Majesty the Emperor has already issued an official document to give us the power of flexible law enforcement by the grassroots security department, and we don't want to be so rigid, we should give in where we should make concessions, and solving public grievances is the key. You! Go out and help me get a word! Let the townsfolk outside elect a representative to come in and negotiate. ”

The gendarme gave him a thumbs up: "You still know how to do things, sir!" So he put on his uniform and went out.

After ten minutes, after negotiations with the townspeople's representatives, the sheriff made an exception to release the two out-of-town tourists in the prison, but still charged them a high bail and fine, and the young master who wore glasses and was in a wheelchair did not hesitate to pay the money in order to release his subordinates as soon as possible.

The sheriff opened the rusty iron door and said to the man inside, "Come out, big man, and the masked maid, you are both free." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Victor thanked the sheriff politely.

The handcuffs were too thin for his large thick arms, and there was a dent in the wrist. Once the handcuffs were uncuffed, he rubbed his aching shoulders, lowered his head, turned sideways, and struggled to squeeze his massive body out of the cage door.

It was not pleasant for a man of his kind to keep his arms tight all night, and he had not slept all night in the cage, only then he yawned tiredly and came outside, where everyone was waiting at the door.

Rosemary flattened his arms, and a pair of golden eyes shed tears of grievance, looking pitiful: "My knight of oaths!" The thought of you going to jail for me makes me unable to sleep. ”

Victor stroked the back of the princess: "My dear, it's all over, this is just an episode, it won't affect our outing plan, Gao Xiu'er, let's go to the local market tomorrow, don't cry." ”

Princess Edgar on the side grimaced at her sister: "Hehe...... My sister is really a crybaby, the kind that can't be coaxed. ”

William came over in a wheelchair and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" Everybody's worried about you. ”

"I'm so good! It's even more comfortable than sleeping in a hotel! Princess Edgar stretched and triumphantly:

"Now I'm more experienced, it's fun to be locked in an iron cage, oh yes, there are five murder suspects in the cage next to me, and I talk to them until late before going to sleep."

William's eyes widened in surprise: "Now, murder suspect? Stay away from those people, and don't learn from them! ”

Edgar seemed unconcerned, spat on the ground, and said, "Bah! I was disappointed by those guys, they were braggarts, how ruthless and powerful each one was, and each one claimed to have killed a hundred people!

As soon as I took off my headscarf and mask to breathe, they began to whistle at me and make rude and obscene gestures to me, threatening to rush into the cage and strip me naked.

I'm good, you kind of come to practice, but they don't move, and then I ask, why don't you come yet? Then I'm going to pass! ”

When she arrived here, Princess Edgar's eyebrows fluttered, and her snot flowed out of her nose, and she spat and said:

"And then! I bent the thickest steel bar with my bare hands in front of the suspects and made a gesture to rush into their cages, and the guys were so frightened that they huddled in the corner and shivered, and one of them was so frightened that he peed his pants and begged me not to come.

Ha ha! William, I wish you were there at the time, and see what those guys look like! It's so much fun! ”
