Wang Yang followed the welcome guests to the security room. Inside, three little boys were squatting in the corner. The two smaller ones seemed to have just cried, while the older one, about fifteen or sixteen years old, was guarding the two boys.
In front of a child.
When he saw Wang Yang coming, his expression didn't change much, as if he had expected such a day, or had already been accustomed to such a scene.
Wang Yang walked up to them. Before he could speak, he heard the two little boys crying and saying: "Please, don't arrest our brother. My brother spent the money and bought bread for 20 yuan and 130 yuan for it."
Eight yuan was given to Ah Shui for medical treatment. This is the remaining 42 yuan, and...this is the uneaten bread...don't catch my brother, we won't eat bread anymore, we will pick up garbage and eat it, and give it back to you.
, forgive me brother, please.”
Wang Yang saw these children, without exception, they were sallow, thin, tattered and dirty. One of them had a blue complexion, which was indeed a symptom of illness.
The older child, who they called his brother, was fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was skinny and short. He was wearing a very ill-fitting adult's tattered plaid shirt that he picked up from somewhere.
Empty.
What is relatively similar is that none of their three children are wearing shoes, and the thick layer of calluses on their feet shows that they must have not worn shoes for a long time.
Seeing the dirty and wounded hands of the two children being handed over dozens of dollars in change and two packs of low-quality bread, Wang Yang's nose became sour unconsciously.
These children are so pitiful.
What happened? The greeter said they found them under an overpass. Do they live in that kind of place? Are they street children? Where are their parents?
At this moment, a well-dressed woman rushed into the security room and said angrily: "Did you catch it? Where is it? Where is it?"
After a few glances, the woman saw the child in the corner, then rushed up to him and slapped him without saying a word.
Snap!
The older boy received a heavy slap in the face and cried out in pain. He was afraid and did not dare to cry loudly. The two children behind him were also scared and cried together.
After the woman was slapped, she was still not relieved. She raised her hand and was about to slap her down again. Wang Yang quickly grabbed her hand and frowned: "Stop! What are you doing?"
When Wang Yang stopped her, the woman was stunned, and then said coldly and angrily: "What are you doing? Kill these little beasts who have no parental control. They even dare to steal my son's longevity lock. Hand over your things quickly..." the woman pointed out
Holding the boy, he bared his teeth and cursed.
"I...I didn't steal the longevity lock." The boy who was beaten said.
Snap!
When Wang Yang was not paying attention, the woman slapped him again with her left hand: "You still dare to quibble, right? You were caught by others, and you still lied, little beast. I have to beat you to death today. Will you hand it over?"
Hand it over or not..."
The woman wanted to move forward, but Wang Yang held her tightly and frowned: "That's enough! Can you ask me first why you came up and hit someone?"
"Don't stop me, why bother asking? They are just a bunch of uncultured beasts, thieves, and pickpockets. You'd better beat them to relieve your anger. Hey, don't stop me." The woman struggled.
Wang Yang pulled her hard and pulled her behind, and then said to Xiao Ye: "Stop her."
Xiao Ye grabbed her with a mechanical hand, and the woman was unable to move.
Wang Yang rolled his eyes, ignored her for the time being, turned back to the children and asked, "Did you steal it?"
The boy shook his head vigorously: "No, I didn't steal the longevity lock, I only stole your wallet..."
"You still said no! You little bastard, you still dare to lie, don't you? You didn't steal it. My son's long life was tied to his long legs and he ran away on his own?" The woman continued to curse.
Wang Yang continued to ask: "Why do you steal things?"
"...I can't help it." The pain on the boy's face eased a little, and he stopped crying. He was still a relatively strong boy, and his eyes were full of loneliness and helplessness that could see through the vicissitudes of the world.
"No way?" Wang Yang frowned slightly: "How do you say this?"
"Mr. Wang, I know a little bit about it." The previous greeter stepped forward, glanced at the boy, and said, "This is not the first time that this boy has been arrested here."
"Listen, this is a habitual criminal. He has been causing harm to society at a young age. This little bastard needs discipline." The woman interrupted.
The receptionist said: "He was indeed forced. They were all brought by human traffickers from the ravines. They may not have good looks or quality, so they were abandoned in the market as petty thieves. If they contribute money to that group of people, the traffickers will
According to the situation, first teach them how to cheat and deceive them. Once they are able to learn it, they can use this technique alone.
Or they form a group of three to five, and provide performance to the traffickers on time. If they are unable to get money, their hands and feet will be cruelly broken, their eyes will be blinded, etc., and then they will be thrown into the street to make money by being miserable. They are young.
, and being in a strange and bad environment, being tortured day and night by a team of human traffickers, I was scared, so I could only obey..."
"What?" Wang Yang was stunned.
"Look, I'm just saying that these are little bastards who have no control over them. They deserve to be abducted in the ravines. Why don't they be maimed instead of stealing my son's longevity lock? You bastards."
Snap!
Wang Yang slapped the woman on the face and glared at her: "If you talk again, I will cut out your tongue right now!"
"You...why are you still beating me? These bastards...are the ones stealing..."
Pah!! Pah pah pah pah!!!!
Wang Yang slapped the woman on the face more than ten times in a row, with cold eyes, and the woman finally became honest.
Wang Yang then turned around, looked at the children with distress, and asked softly: "Is what he just said true?"
One of the little boys said: "Well, I was abducted when I was four and a half years old. Now I don't know where my home is, so I can only stay here. But I didn't steal any money. Neither Ah Shui nor I stole any money.
He didn’t do anything bad either.”
"Oh? Is it because you are young?" Wang Yang asked.
The little boy shook his head and cried: "It's my brother. He helped us pay our share of the money every month. He adopted us. He said... I hope we won't be like him and can run away when we grow up."
Just run away and do some hard work to support yourself. Don't do bad things. My brother taught us, stay alive and don't harm others."
"Brother is a good man, don't arrest him, okay?"
"You said he...has been raising you two? Are you not brothers?" Wang Yang was even more shocked.
The little boy shook his head: "No, we were all kidnapped from different places. I was only five years old when my brother took me in..."
"The same goes for Ah Shui. Ah Shui was five years and three months old when he was taken in by his brother. We have been with him for three years." Another sick little boy said.
"Is he... capable of supporting you?" Wang Yang looked at the big boy in disbelief. He was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Wasn't he only twelve years old three years ago?
