As a Chinese, it is definitely a very shocking thing not to see the flag-raising ceremony in Tiananmen Square in the capital.
Xu Bing had seen it before, and so had Tang Yanxue, but when Tang Yanxue suddenly asked to go to Tiananmen to watch the flag raising, Xu Bing happily agreed.
There are two reasons. One is that he does not want to reject Tang Yanxue, and the other is that he also wants to relive the sacred and solemn feeling of the flag-raising ceremony.
Xu Bing wanted Tang Yanxue to sleep, but Tang Yanxue didn't dare to sleep anymore. The flag-raising ceremony usually started at around five o'clock in the morning. It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night. If she slept again, she might not be able to catch the flag-raising ceremony.
Besides, when she heard that Xu Bing agreed to her request, she felt inexplicably excited and couldn't sleep.
So Xu Bing felt miserable. Being pestered by Tang Yanxue for chatting, he was really sleepy. Unfortunately, Tang Yanxue was completely sleepy, so he could only risk his life to accompany the gentleman.
Because it is not too far from Tiananmen Square and only takes more than ten minutes to walk, Xu Bing and Tang Yanxue got up at 4:30 in the morning, then washed up and walked to Tiananmen Square at exactly 5 o'clock.
The flag-raising ceremony has not yet begun, but hundreds of people have already crowded the square on three sides of the flagpole.
Chang'an Street was busy with traffic, and the Tiananmen Gate Tower looked solemn and solemn under the lights. Although there were many people in the square, not many people made a loud noise. From time to time, police officers patrolled the square in their cars, holding horns in their hands but did not yell.
Tang Yanxue wanted to see the Monument to the Heroes, and Xu Bing accompanied her.
Standing in front of the monument, Tang Yanxue's expression became very serious. She stared at the monument silently for a long time before sighing: "When I was a child, my grandfather often brought me here to tell me stories about his time."
Xu Bing nodded seriously and said: "Your grandfather is a hero. Without their bloody battle, we wouldn't be where we are today, so let's pay tribute to them!"
These words were quite tacky, and they felt like lines from old patriotic movies, but Tang Yanxue knew that what Xu Bing said were just psychological words.
Looking at Xu Bing, Tang Yanxue smiled and said, "You are heroes too."
"Am I a hero?" Xu Bing pointed at his nose and laughed at himself: "Didn't you say that I am more like a gangster?"
"You are not allowed to say such things here." Tang Yanxue frowned.
Suddenly, the crowd in the distance began to roar. Although the sound was not loud, the two of them heard it and turned to look together.
"The flag-raising ceremony is about to begin, let's go, hurry up and take a look!" Tang Yanxue was a little excited and immediately ran to the flagpole quickly, with Xu Bing following closely behind.
Across Chang'an Street, under the gate tower, the officers and soldiers of the national flag guard were walking towards us in neat steps, with solemn expressions.
The citizens who came to watch the flag-raising ceremony held their breaths, and many took out their mobile phones or cameras and started taking pictures.
Xu Bing and Tang Yanxue were both quite tall. Although they couldn't squeeze in front, they could still see the scene in front clearly from the back, so they didn't deliberately squeeze.
At this time, there were already police officers sitting in police cars and starting to use loudspeakers to warn everyone to pay attention to their wallets.
Soon, the flag-raising ceremony officially began.
Tang Yanxue had a sacred look on her face, staring closely at the slowly rising national flag, and Xu Bing did the same.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the national flag guard in front, and at this moment, a young man in his twenties quietly squeezed next to Xu Bing and Tang Yanxue.
This young man had a sly look and quickly reached for Tang Yanxue's bag. Unfortunately, he was caught by Xu Bing just as his hand touched Tang Yanxue's bag.
The young man turned his head and glared at Xu Bing angrily, with a warning in his eyes, but Xu Bing did not let go. He just smiled coldly at him, and when he exerted force on his hand, the young man let out a cry of pain.
When the national flag was raised to the top, the officers and soldiers of the escort began to leave in formation, and the crowd's attention was also attracted to Xu Bing's side.
"Let go!" the thief said coldly to Xu Bing.
Xu Bing sneered: "You dare to steal things in broad daylight, why should I let you go?"
"What, he is a thief?" Tang Yanxue seemed very angry, staring at the thief and scolding: "Aren't you Chinese? It's so sacred to raise the national flag, but you actually do such a dirty thing, don't you know how to blush?
?”
"Ah, thief? Give it to the police!"
"Yes, it's outrageous to have the police arrest you for stealing in a place like this!"
"That's right, these people are so hateful. My phone was stolen last time I was here!"
"Huh? Where are the police? There were police here just now. Why are they missing now?"
…
Of course, it was easy for the combination of handsome men and beautiful women to gain support. Many onlookers began to speak out to support Xu Bing and Tang Yanxue, and condemned the thief.
But the thief snorted coldly: "Who is the thief? I think you are crazy. What did I steal? Show me the evidence!"
"Evidence?" Xu Bing was a little amused: "If you don't steal anything, can I hold your hand and hold on to it?"
"Where's the dirt? What did I steal?" The thief was not afraid at all. Instead, he threatened Xu Bing: "If you don't let go, I'll be rude to you."
Xu Bing laughed.
Weird things happen every year, but there are so many this year. The one who caught the thief was threatened by the thief. Isn't this so funny?
But the next moment, Xu Bing frowned.
I don't know when, three or five young people appeared together and surrounded him. One of them even shouted at him viciously: "Let go of my brother, otherwise we will not be polite!"
"You're welcome?" Xu Bing said with a smile: "No wonder you are so arrogant. It turns out you have an accomplice. Come on, just try not to be polite to me."
Four or five thieves gathered together, and all of them looked fierce, and the crowd of onlookers immediately became cries.
This is the current situation in China. There are many people who watch the excitement, but few people who stand up for justice bravely.
The young men surrounding Xu Bing exchanged glances and rushed towards Xu Shi together.
Unfortunately, in Xu Bing's eyes, they were too weak, not even considered ants, so Xu Bing was not polite to them, knocking five of them to the ground in three blows.
After the five young men were knocked down, they were still not convinced. They got up and continued to rush towards Xu Bing. Naturally, Xu Bing was even more rude and knocked these people down repeatedly with punches and kicks.
This time Xu Bing hit harder than before. Three of the five people had nosebleeds, and the other two squatted down with their hands covered - they were kicked so hard in the balls by Xu Bing.
"What should we do now?" Tang Yanxue asked Xu Bing.
"I don't know either. It seems we don't have evidence, right?" Xu Bing replied in a low voice.
At this moment, two patrol policemen finally came over from a distance.
In fact, they were not too far away. It was just that when Xu Bing was entangled with the thief, the two of them happened to be chatting. When they found out something happened here, they immediately ran over. Unfortunately, they were still a step too late.
It's not that they arrived too slowly, but that the incident escalated too quickly.
Fighting in Tiananmen Square is really a very bad thing. If this matter is not dealt with quickly, it will most likely be reported in the newspapers tomorrow. Not only will they be punished, but also the entire class of comrades on duty in the square today.
, will be punished.
So they have to deal with this matter seriously.
Patrolman A frowned and looked at the young men on the ground and asked, "What's going on? What's going on?"
"Comrade, this guy beat us up for this reason. You have to make the decision for us."
Sweat, a young man got up first, wiped away the nosebleed, and shouted.
He is the first evil person to file a complaint.
As soon as he spoke, several other young men immediately put all the blame on Xu Bing, describing Xu Bing as a mentally disturbed terrorist.
"Why did you hit people?" the patrolman began to ask Xu Bing.
Xu Bing was speechless, pointed at his nose and asked: "Do you think I look like a madman?"
The patrolman was a little confused by Xu Bing's words. Fortunately, Xu Bing continued to speak: "I'm not sick, so why would I beat them for no reason? I beat them because they stole things. After I caught them on the spot,
And because so many people want to use violence against me, so many citizens can testify to this matter."
"Is that so?" the patrolman looked around and asked in a deep voice.
Many people began to testify for Xu Bing, and the scene was noisy.
"Wait, don't make any noise!" the patrolman shouted loudly.
Only then did everyone calm down.
"Did you really steal something?" the patrolman asked one of the young men.
The young man was really good at acting. He looked sad and aggrieved and said, "Do you think I look like a thief?"
He learned this from Xu Bing, and he pretended to be quite similar. He didn't wait for the patrol officer to speak, and then continued: "If you say I stole something, you have to provide evidence. I said you who testified, do you know that you are committing perjury?"
It's against the law. You said, who of you saw me stealing? What did I steal? Where are the dirt? If you keep talking nonsense, I will sue you for slander and slander!"
Khan, suddenly, no one in the crowd spoke anymore.
Xu Bing couldn't laugh or cry, and Tang Yanxue was even trembling with anger.
These people are so cunning, so shameful, so shameless!
Is this still fair and just?
When the patrol officers saw that no one in the crowd was talking anymore, they probably knew what happened and the truth. They believed that what Xu Bing said was true. However, Xu Bing could not provide evidence and it was not easy for them to deal with it. Maybe they had dealt with similar cases before.
The patrolman did not dare to let these people watch here anymore, so he said to Xu Bing and a few young people: "Let's go, don't be here, come with us to the guard box and explain the matter clearly!"
Several young people said yes repeatedly and felt very confident, as if they had been wronged.
Xu Bingnai could only follow along with Tang Yanxue.
There was no other way. When the matter reached this stage, he could only cooperate and deal with it, but in his heart, he was really angry and funny.
The matter has been turned upside down, and even if he wants to let it go, these young people probably won't agree.
However, Xu Bing believed that evil could never prevail against good, and if the final result really fulfilled these people's wishes, he would not agree to it.
He didn't believe it, there was really no justice in this world.
If there is no justice in the world, he will come to uphold justice!
