NOVEL NEXT Chapter 43 Social Cancer
After walking out of the shelter, the cold air outside seemed to smell particularly fresh and pleasant.
Mu Jiu felt refreshed after giving the Mu family a hard time, and the heavy stone weighing on his heart had finally fallen away.
With the violent tempers and methods of those elder brothers, she could imagine how that family member died without her having to do it herself.
After all, the shelter is just a concentration camp. Beating them up and throwing them out is the same as dumping their bodies.
It was still early, so Mu Jiu returned to the market to find the Gu family brothers and sisters and the Lou family mother and daughter.
From a distance, he saw Gu Yang, who was 183cm tall, with his younger sister, followed by the Lou family's mother and daughter, standing in front of a certain stall and bargaining with someone.
Mu Jiu walked in their direction, and before they arrived, she found a little boy of thirteen or fourteen years old behind Mama Lou. He was short and acted sneakily.
The market is a mixed bag, and there are often thieves and thieves. Most of them are desperate people who are short of food and clothing. Of course, there are exceptions.
The moment the little boy used a knife to cut open Lou's mother's backpack, Mu Jiu grabbed his wrist and took away the stolen goods.
"At such a young age, where did you learn this trick of baggage-stealing?"
Mu Jiu's voice and movements immediately attracted the attention of many people around him.
Lou's mother only reacted when she heard the sound and checked her backpack.
"Ah, why don't I feel anything at all..."
I saw a palm-long hole suddenly appeared on the backpack, and the items inside were clearly visible.
Lou Nan quickly stepped forward to help her mother pack the newly bought items in her bag, stuffing them with supplies that were almost overflowing.
The little boy was caught by Mu Jiu. The hand holding the knife couldn't move at all. He couldn't run away even if he wanted to. He was so painful that he had to jump.
"Let me go, let me go quickly! Otherwise I will make you look good!"
"The child is quite loud. He has done something shameful and scandalous, and he also threatens others!
Sister, I think you should just hand the person over to the police officer guarding outside. This kind of kid is a habitual offender at first sight! "
Gu Yang just looked at the child and didn't like it, and dared to threaten his sister with her life.
But now Lou’s mother, who had packed her bags and supplies, spoke:
"Miss Mu, we don't lack anything.
Seeing as he is a child, why don't we let him go this time!
Survival in the apocalypse is difficult, and it is not easy for anyone. Look at the frostbite on his hands, it looks like no one will hurt him.
Forget it, we have nothing to lose. "
Before Mu Jiu could speak, Gu Yang refused to accept it and said:
"Auntie Lou, there's so much stuff. It's not because the kid got lost and found his way back, but because my sister happened to be passing by and saw it, so she caught it in time!
Even if someone wants to cheat on someone who has stolen the goods, he can't! "
"You're talking nonsense. I didn't steal it. I just wanted to try out the knife I just bought and accidentally scratched it. I didn't steal it!"
The child didn't stand up to the challenge, but he was still confident and didn't look afraid at all.
After hearing the child's quibbling, Mu Jiu didn't want to be spoiled. She exerted force with her fingers, and the knife in the child's hand fell to the ground instantly.
Mu Jiu forcefully opened the child's hand and stretched it out in front of Lou's mother.
"Gu Yang is right, this kid is a habitual thief, and he has calluses on his hands to prove it.
Auntie Lou, you are kind-hearted, but if you let such a person continue, he will eventually become a cancer in society. "
After Mu Jiu finished speaking, he pushed the person to Gu Yang.
"Take Aunt Lou's bag and this knife and hand him over to the police guarding the area, and they will deal with it.
Gu Nuan, please go with your brother. We will continue shopping here and wait for you to come back. "
Seeing the Gu brothers and sisters walking away, Mu Jiucai smiled and said to Lou's mother:
"Auntie, let's pick out another backpack."
Mu Jiu knew that Aunt Lou must miss her son very much, so she couldn't bear to blame a child too much.
Even though the father and son of the Lou family locked their mother and daughter out that night, they almost froze to death.
But when Lou’s mother saw her husband and son being hacked to death by people from the housekeeping department, and their bodies scattered in pieces at the door of the service hall, she still cried all night long.
She carefully collected the two bodies and even put them in clean clothes before sending them to be cremated.
People can complain and hate when they are alive, but when people die, all resentments become thoughts. The deeper the hatred, the deeper the thoughts.
What's more, they are still her flesh and blood relatives.
If there was no apocalypse, perhaps we could still remain as we were and be a happy family.
By the time the Gu brothers and sisters came back, Lou's mother had already put on a new bag.
In order to thank Mu Jiu and the Gu brothers and sisters for their help, she specially gave each of them a cashmere hat as a thank-you gift.
Mu Jiu and the other five people got on the Mercedes-Benz G for the return trip at exactly three o'clock in the afternoon at the scheduled time.
Everyone except Mu Jiu gained a lot from this trip.
Along the way, he was counting the items he had exchanged in detail. It really looked like he was going shopping before the end of the world and cleaning up.
But as soon as the car left the military jurisdiction of the rescue center, the car was stopped by a group of people.
Mu Jiu glanced at the crowd in front and spotted the little boy who had just been sent to the patrol by the Gu brothers and sisters...
"Sister, we really handed people over to the police!" Gu Yang explained hurriedly.
Mu Jiu didn't want to blame them, and responded calmly: "Yes, I know."
These people are not simple.
Mu Jiu's eyes were fixed on the large group of people in front of him, and he slowly stopped the car.
This group of people didn't look strong, they were lean and looked like they were malnourished.
But they all have guns!
It is not difficult to explain why the little boy can become a habitual thief in the market.
The thieves delivered to the patrol police will also appear outside the jurisdiction of the military.
Although Mu Jiu's Big G has good performance, it is not bulletproof.
It would be easy for her to escape alone. At worst, she could hide in space or teleport away.
But there were still her people in the car, and she didn't want to leave them behind easily, nor was she willing to expose the space affairs, so she had no choice but to take advantage of them.
As soon as the car stopped, the group of people immediately surrounded the car.
The leader, the thin man, led the little boy to stand outside Mu Jiu's driver's door. He tapped the glass with the tip of his gun and motioned for her to open the door.
Mu Jiu calmly pressed down the window, and the black muzzle of the gun with a cold light was immediately pressed against Mu Jiu's chest.
"Did this woman capture you?" the thin man holding the gun asked the little boy behind him.
"That's her!" the child said with certainty, but when he looked at Mu Jiu, his arrogance weakened a bit.
"Yes, it was her...she was the one who pinched and dislocated my right hand!"
When the thin man heard this, a flash of cruelty flashed in his eyes. If you dare to attack his people, okay!
"Girl, you are so tough, get off the bus! Hurry up!
Everyone in the car, get off! If you are disobedient, be careful. My gun has no eyes! "
