Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Is It Worth Helping?
Tuanzi was practicing martial arts in the yard, occasionally flying onto the trees.
Finding no one around, she simply tiptoed and flew to the top of a big tree.
Her little feet landed gently on the leaves.
"The view is great from up here!"
[Ancient Martial System: If anyone nearby saw this, they’d be terrified]
"Don’t worry, don’t worry. Miaomiao flies fast, ’whoosh’, and is out of sight. People would just think they were seeing things."
The system couldn’t really bring her down, so it could only watch her moving around the top of the tree.
"Eh, is there something going on over there?"
Standing high and looking far, Tuanzi noticed some commotion at the house with the ginkgo trees.
Her sharp eyes even saw through the glass window into the movement in the hall.
"Someone fell, and others seem to be looking for something."
Her eyes widened.
"Robbers!"
She flew out with a ’swish’, landed on the courtyard wall, tapped, and continued to fly forward.
More agile than a cat, she swiftly reached her destination by flying over each household’s yard walls and the big trees in between.
In a rush, she didn’t notice a figure appearing on the main road, heading towards her house.
Silently landing in the yard, Tuanzi wrinkled her nose.
The smell of blood, someone was injured.
There was a car in the courtyard, the main door ajar. As she got closer, she heard an elderly groan and a man’s cursing.
Injuring an elderly person is no small matter. Tuanzi directly pulled open the door a crack and slipped in like a nimble cat.
In the hall, she saw an old lady lying in a pool of blood, with some jewelry boxes piled up on the sofa not far away.
A man was pulling out a drawer, rummaging through it.
"Where’s your diamond ring?"
"How much money is on this card? What’s the password?"
The old lady lying on the ground refused to speak.
Seeing this, Tuanzi clenched her fists in anger.
"Damn robber!"
She rushed over and punched the man hard in his stunned gaze.
"Ah!"
The man screamed, clutching his bleeding nose, glaring at Tuanzi.
"Where did this wild girl come from? Mind your own business!"
Tuanzi shouted, "Little Gu, call the police!"
The system could directly control her phone to make calls and even imitate her voice.
It not only called the police but also an ambulance and informed the host in her mind.
Hearing the word ’police’, the man’s face changed, reaching out to grab Tuanzi.
Tuanzi nimbly dodged and in a few moves, knocked the man down and found a rope to tie him up.
Ensuring the man couldn’t cause any more harm, she hurriedly squatted down beside the old lady.
"Granny, don’t worry, the ambulance is on its way."
In ancient times, her master gave her many healing medicines, but she didn’t bring any back when she returned here.
She dared not carelessly pull out the fruit knife, opting instead to press on the bleeding area.
"Please be assured, you will be fine."
The old lady opened her mouth as if wanting to say something but struggled and could not produce a sound.
Tuanzi didn’t pay it much mind.
Just then, the door was abruptly pulled open.
Tuanzi turned her head in surprise, seeing Gu Chi with a look of panic.
"Brother Gu Chi, why are you here?"
Seeing the scene in the hall, Gu Chi let out a sigh of relief. He strode over and stopped in front of Tuanzi, looking down at her.
Tuanzi instinctively shrank her neck, feeling that Brother Gu Chi was very angry.
"What happened?"
Gu Chi took several deep breaths, calming down as much as possible, and asked in a gentle tone.
"A robber broke into her house, hurt her, and started stealing things!"
Tuanzi raised her small face, looking for praise, "Miaomiao called an ambulance and the police."
At this moment, the man suddenly yelled, "Mom, don’t let them call the police!"
Tuanzi: "!"
The little girl was a bit puzzled, slowly lowering her head to look.
The old lady finally gathered some strength, whispering, "Child, don’t call the police. He is my son."
Tuanzi blinked, "But, but he hurt you and wants to rob you of your money. Even if he’s your son, he’s still a robber!"
The sound of police cars approached.
The old lady became anxious, even trying to sit up, "Stay out of it, don’t call the police!"
Not far away, the man also sneered, "Busybody!"
Tuanzi: "..."
[Ancient Martial System: Miaomiao?]
Tuanzi lowered her head, looking at her blood-stained hands.
Her heart felt a little sour, but she said nothing, continuing to press against the wound, preventing too much blood from flowing out.
The nearby police station was close, and the police arrived first, followed by the ambulance.
Gu Chi and Tuanzi went with them to give their statements.
Tuanzi honestly recounted what she did.
She was more famous than she thought. The female police officer taking her statement knew who she was. When she heard about the little girl, only four or five years old, knocking down a grown man, she was not surprised and even praised her.
Of course, the female officer also gently reminded her to avoid putting herself in danger.
Tuanzi lowered her head, looking at her hands.
So dirty.
"Sister," she whispered, "are they really mother and son?"
Female officer: "The interrogation results are not out yet."
Tuanzi stopped talking, slowly climbing off the chair.
Gu Chi was waiting in the hall, seeing her walk out expressionless, he first took her to wash her hands.
Neither sibling said anything, which made the system a little scared.
The interrogation results came quickly.
The man was a loafer, though his family had some assets.
As he grew older without making any progress, his mother stopped giving him money.
This time, he ran out of money and came home to demand money from his mother, even pulling out a fruit knife to threaten her. After being refused, he became furious, stabbed her, and started rummaging through the house.
The female officer crouched in front of the long bench, facing Tuanzi.
"That’s roughly the situation, and we’re currently in contact with the hospital to see if the lady is out of danger. We really thank you this time."
Big dark eyes stared at her.
"Sister, how long will he be sentenced?"
The female officer paused.
This was when Gu Chi spoke coldly, "That depends on whether the lady forgives him."
The young painter’s face was expressionless, "If that person pretends to repent and the lady forgives him, he might get a maximum of three years, perhaps even probation."
Tuanzi looked up at him.
Gu Chi’s whole face was shrouded in gloom.
"You kindly saved her, and she might still blame you, believe it or not?"
Tuanzi: "..."
Soon, the police stationed at the hospital called.
"The injury isn’t serious. The person is already awake and has spoken a lot to us."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chi sneered.
The officer at the hospital reported that after waking up, the old lady expressed that her son only acted impulsively and mistakenly, asking for forgiveness and hoping for her son to be released.
The officer was likely speaking from the hallway, so the room’s sounds also came through.
"I said my son didn’t do it on purpose!"
"Since the injury isn’t serious, they should release my son!"
"It’s all that little girl’s fault, why did she call the police? I didn’t ask her to!"
"My son wouldn’t have let me bleed out without calling an ambulance, would he?"
