Chapter 870: Self-Defense
s, the black snake lay limp in the creek like its bones had been extracted.The ripples didn't dare to be careless, the snake was the most insidious and venomous. She punched the opponent's skull again...A well-mannered man hurried to Wenjing's side, the first thing he asked was about his daughter's condition.
"Lao Han"
Wénjìng seemed to have found an outlet for her emotions, sobbing in the man's arms, "Woo woo". She was heartbroken for her daughter and wanted to kill those human traffickers a thousand times over.
Han Li-xue patted his wife's shoulder, comforting her emotions. He knew his wife was a strong person and would never cry in front of others. Ever since their daughter went missing, the two of them had been thinking about bringing her home day and night for the past six months.
When the police found them and asked them to identify handwriting, they felt a surge of hope and immediately dropped everything to rush to Changning City for news. But all they got in return was the news that their daughter was being rushed into surgery at the hospital.
These three days were the most agonizing for them. Though their daughter was found, they had to bear the risk of losing her at any moment.
"Family, please calm down before you go in to see the patient. The patient is most vulnerable right now and needs your company and care. Don't bring your negative emotions to her, she is most sensitive at this time."
"Okay, doctor, we'll go in in a while."
The Korean father immediately spoke up, then pulled his wife to sit down on a chair in the aisle. Only then did he patiently inquire about his daughter's condition.
Wenjing took the tissue her husband offered and wiped away her tears. She then spoke softly about her daughter's condition, and as she finished, tears welled up in her eyes again.
"Our daughter is such a good girl, why wouldn't God be merciful and stop tormenting her She just graduated from college and had such a bright future ahead of her, now it's all gone. She'll definitely live in the shadow of this event for the rest of her life."
Han's father's eyes also turned red. He was a man, and his emotions were more reserved, so he patted his wife's shoulder and said:
"Quiet, our daughter is back. The first thing we need to do is help her recover physically, and then comfort her emotionally. Let her gradually recover. There's no rush to find a job; we can still afford to support our daughter."
"Well, I understand! You go see your daughter first, I'll wash my face. Can't let her see I've been crying."
Wenjing raised her head and said.
"Okay, I'll go in first."
The ripples were now just a few scattered drops, she continued trying to call for the millstone, but there was still no response. She could only let it go for now, her mind racing with how to handle the police interrogation. After all, both of the drug dealers were dead.
Then she heard the sound of the door opening, a refined man came into her sight. She gave a weak, shallow smile and called out to him, "Dad."
"Child"
The father's voice choked with emotion. As he came to the bedside, he gently took Ripples' hand and softly asked if she was still feeling unwell.
"I'm okay now, my stomach doesn't hurt anymore."
Ripple said softly.
Don't worry, don't get out of bed just yet, take it easy. It's only been three days since your surgery.
The Korean father admonished.
"Well, I know."
"I'll put some chapstick on your lips with a cotton swab, but you can't eat or drink yet."
The Korean father used a cotton swab dipped in water to gently moisten his daughter's chapped lips.
After two sentences were exchanged, Lian Yi fell asleep again. Her mental state was still good, but her body wouldn't allow it. She had to be forced into sleep for recovery.
When Lian Yi's ripples opened her eyes again, the sky outside was pitch black. Wen Jing sat beside her on the hospital bed.
Wenjing was quietly recording something in a notebook, occasionally glancing up at her daughter. When she saw her daughter open her eyes, she immediately closed the notebook and asked in a soft voice:
Jingjing, how are you feeling
"Much better."
Even the ripples didn't want to worry their original mother, so they could only say that.
"While you were asleep, the police came by and wanted to ask you some questions. I turned them away, saying that you were too weak to talk, and told them to come back tomorrow."
"Okay, I know what they're going to ask me."
Ripples nodded.
Will Mom need to be there then
Wenjing respects her daughter's choice.
"Mom, stay with me. I only want to say those experiences once."
"Okay."
Wen Jing lowered her eyes and then nodded.
"Mom, when can I get out of the hospital"
"We still need to observe for two more days. Don't worry, your body is too weak right now and you can't eat anything. Once you are able to eat, your wounds will heal faster, and then you can be discharged."
Wenjing immediately soothed.
"Where is this"
"This is Changning City. At the time, your situation was urgent, and you received emergency treatment in the county town before being sent here directly."
Patiently answered her daughter's questions.
After ripples said two sentences, she fell back asleep.
The next morning, after Ripples had a simple wash with the help of Wenjing, two policemen arrived.
Ripple leaned against the bed, her face pale, but she still politely thanked him:
"Thank you for saving me."
This is what we should do.
"Did Lao Er catch him"
"Rest assured, this time they were caught all at once."
"Are the two people who kidnapped me still alive"
The ripples continued to ask.
After exchanging glances, one of the two policemen, an older one, shook his head.
They died instantly.
"Then I would be a murderer"
The ripples continued to ask.
"No, a criminal held you hostage, seriously endangering your life as a pregnant woman. What you did was self-defense, so you are not criminally liable."
"At that time, I wanted to die with them."
R ripples tilted her head, her clear and sharp gaze fixed on the two officers. However, the words that came out of her mouth caused Wenjing beside her to change color.
"Quiet"
"At the time, I didn't know if I could survive, but I wasn't going to let these people get away. They were trying to escape through a secret passage; they must have planned their getaway long ago."
My presence would only tie the police's hands. If they succeed, there will be more victims in the future. I am already in hell, so let them come and join me!
The ripples were unusually calm, and the sound wasn't loud, but the two officers listening felt a chill run down their spines. They clearly sensed the girl's hatred.
"Don't worry, none of them will escape. They will all face legal consequences!"
The young officer began to soothe her, and then another officer asked what had happened to her after she left school.
Ripples closed her eyes at this moment, handing the control of her body back to the original owner. Some things still needed to be spoken by the person involved. The three present all thought that Han Jing (the daughter) was unwilling to recall the past, so they didn't urge her. They just waited for her to adjust her emotions before speaking again.
When Han Jing opened her eyes again, they were immediately red. She spoke incoherently about her experiences over the past six months, and it took four hours to finish telling her story.
After Wen Jing's daughter spoke, she had been silently weeping. The two policemen listened to Han Jing's account, and their hearts also felt a bit stifled. They thought that when they arrested them, they should have shot all of them. The evil of human nature was fully displayed in them.
"Thank you for your cooperation. There is one more identification step afterwards, would you be able to do that"rush in to scatter them before we managed to escape.Mother Hui was heartbroken. She had already brought over some warm millet porridge and steamed buns, and there was also a dish of stir-fried dandeli...
