Chapter 592: Unexpected Incident

~4 min read 763 words

After first attending to physiological needs and tidying up his clothes, he returned to his seat. Not long after, the broadcast sounded: the train would soon be arriving at the station.

They were even more enthusiastic than in Harbin. Before they had even stepped off the train, they saw people on the platform holding signs welcoming Comrade Wang Changzheng, waiting there early. Sister Jiang joked, "They must have been waiting anxiously. Comrade Wang, you'll probably have to start work the moment you arrive at the factory."

However, this time they had to split into two groups. Wang Changzheng and Qiu Shaohua were to go to the locomotive factory, while the others were to go to the steel mill.

That was why, at the state-run hotel outside Harbin Railway Station, Mi Aijun had asked that question.

After Wang Changzheng reunited with the comrade sent to meet them, he learned that the vehicle sent to pick them up was a jeep, so their hope of hitching a ride was impossible.

So, after the group exited the station, they parted ways.

Wang Changzheng and Qiu Shaohua boarded the jeep sent by the locomotive factory to meet them, while Liu Chuxue and Sister Jiang followed Zhang Chunsheng and Mi Aijun, preparing to take the bus to the steel mill.

As soon as the few of them reached the bus stop sign, they heard commotion from not far away: "Stop!"

Liu Chuxue looked up and saw a middle-aged man rushing toward them, with two public security officers following behind.

Seeing that he was about to charge right into where they stood, most people on the platform stepped back, trying to avoid the running man, fearing they might get caught in the crossfire.

Sister Jiang pulled Liu Chuxue to step back, but the two women standing to their side, for some unknown reason, shoved Sister Jiang, nearly knocking her over.

Fortunately, Liu Chuxue, quick-eyed and quick-handed, caught the woman: "Sister Jiang, are you alright?"

While speaking, her foot had already extended, and without others noticing, she directly kicked the woman who had pushed.

That woman stumbled, nearly falling. Once she managed to steady herself: "Who kicked me? Get out here, you!"

Liu Chuxue had already pulled Sister Jiang several steps away from that woman.

They had originally thought they had dodged the rushing middle-aged man, but with that woman's shout, the middle-aged man made a sharp turn and charged straight toward them.

The woman, who had been preparing to curse, let out a scream that cracked in sheer terror.

The middle-aged man charging at her abruptly deviated from his original path and headed straight for where Liu Chuxue and Sister Jiang were standing.

Only then did Sister Jiang clearly see that the man was holding a knife in his hand, and the most terrifying part was that there was blood on the blade. Before she could react...

By the time she came to her senses and prepared to dodge, the man was already right in front of them. The only two words in her mind were: "Finished."

Just as she closed her eyes, preparing to accept her fate, she heard a "Bang!"

When she opened her eyes again, the man had already been subdued by Liu Chuxue.

Only then did Sister Jiang belatedly remember Liu Chuxue's martial skills. She patted her chest, feeling a wave of relief that it was Liu Chuxue who was traveling on this business trip with her.

The two public security officers never expected that a group of criminals without uniforms would be subdued by a young girl.

One of the officers took handcuffs from his lower back. With two "Click-clack" sounds, he cuffed the man. The man still tried to resist, but the officer said, "Behave yourself."

Saying this, he dragged the man aside.

The other officer, after inquiring about Liu Chuxue's situation, said, "Comrade, please leave an address. Someone will contact you shortly."

Liu Chuxue quickly waved her hand: "An address isn't necessary. We are here on a business trip. We didn't expect to encounter this matter. It was just a matter of lending a hand."

She spoke lightly and casually, but to the ears of the two public security officers, it sounded somewhat like showing off: This girl really dares to speak like that. If they knew that six public security officers had been chasing the criminal, only to end up with just the two of them left, and that if it weren't for the girl's help today, the criminal might have escaped, would she still call it just "lending a hand"?
