Chapter 781

"Uh, no, I don't mind! Just do whatever you think is best!"

"Cough, cough, brother, can you hear me? I'm not sure if I can use this equipment perfectly."

"I can hear you, Brother Fang Yang!"

A young, delicate female voice came through the microphone to everyone's ears, which caught Fang Yang off guard. A little girl? She seemed very young. If that were the case, it wasn't hard to understand why her father had eaten himself into the hospital.

"Hello, little sister. May I ask why you want to cook for your dad?"

Facing the little girl, Fang Yang's tone softened and slowed down involuntarily.

"Oh, it's like this. My mom left me when I was very small, and my dad often goes out to work, so I live with my grandparents. This time, since I finally got to see my dad, I wanted to, I wanted to cook a meal for him with my own hands, but..."

The delicate voice rang out. Not only was Fang Yang listening silently, but even the live stream chat had no new messages popping up. If the little girl hadn't still been connected, he would have thought the internet was down.

"I'm such a piece of trash!"

Following the appearance of one self-reproaching comment, identical words began to flood the screen, leaving Fang Yang at a loss for what to do.

Although people had been running their mouths a bit, once they learned the reason behind the situation, they felt immediate remorse and were disgusted by their own momentary amusement.

"Is that so? Then how about big brother teaches you how to cook?"

Listening to how well-behaved and lovable the little girl was, Fang Yang could only lament that her living conditions were truly inferior to most people's.

"You useless brat! It's so much trouble just to get you to do some work!"

Hearing the faint, intermittent verbal abuse, a bad premonition surged in Fang Yang's heart.

"Ah! Grandma, I was wrong, please don't hit me!"

"You money-losing wretch, I'll beat you to death, beat you to death!"

"... Chen Nan."

"I'm on it, calling now."

Fang Yang turned around abruptly to look at Chen Nan, only to find that he had already put down his bowl and was making a phone call.

"Okay."

"Found it. The address for that account is... in this city?"

Chen Nan looked at the address message he had just received on his phone and was surprised to find it wasn't very far away. With that, all they had to do was call the police directly.

Fang Yang hurriedly closed the live stream, while Chen Nan called the police immediately. From the live stream connection, it was clear that the little girl's grandmother was likely using extreme force.

…………

"What are you doing? What are you doing? Do you believe I'll report you for trespassing? I'll call the police and have you all arrested!"

Fang Yang and Chen Nan exchanged a glance, and the two stepped forward in unison. Afraid of you? Not a chance.

"You, you... Ouch, two young people bullying an old woman, there's no justice in this world!"

996, Old lady, get up and party! (Seeking full subscription)

This action scared Fang Yang and his companion into immediately taking two steps back; they didn't want to be framed by this old woman.

"Don't move, police!"

Seeing the several police officers following closely behind, the two had a sudden realization. No wonder she changed her face so quickly; she was trying to play the victim. Looking at how smooth and practiced she was, she had probably staged this scene many times before.

"Captain, how is it this house again? Every time we come, there's no evidence."

Fang Yang's ears were quite sharp, and the complaint from a young officer behind him was heard clearly by Fang Yang.

Again?

It seemed there had been many concerned citizens, but they had given up due to certain reasons. However, things were different now; not only did they have the two of them, but the audience in the live stream could also testify to prove the old woman was abusing her granddaughter.

"Hello, I'm the one who called the police. The reason is..."

As the person who reported the incident, Chen Nan took the initiative to talk to the lead officer.

"Ouch, there's no justice! These two people are bullying an old woman, and you're not even arresting them!"

Watching the old woman throwing a tantrum on the floor, everyone present frowned.

Worried about the little girl's situation, Fang Yang hurriedly began searching the house.

"Hey, hey, hey! That guy is trespassing! Hurry up and arrest him!"

"I'm on it, I'm on it!"

Before the old woman's voice had even faded, a young officer immediately rushed toward Fang Yang, reached out, grabbed Fang Yang's arm in one move, and pulled him into another room.

"..."

Watching the officer actively pulling Fang Yang into the room to search for something, the old woman was truly...

"Him! Him!"

"Cough, don't worry, ma'am. Although this officer is young, he will definitely bring that villain to justice!"

"No! That officer, he!"

"Don't worry! This kid clearly slacks off in his training; when I get back, I'll definitely give him a good talking-to!"

The old woman was speechless. She had realized it too: they were all in on it!

Behind the captain were the admiring gazes of the officers. The boss is the boss!

"You, you people!"

"Forgive us for not daring to help you up. In case you're injured from a bump, moving you rashly could make the injury even worse!"

Watching the old woman bracing her body, attempting to get up, the captain immediately squatted down and pressed her down, not letting her rise.

"What are you people doing! The old woman is so badly hurt! Call an ambulance immediately!"

"What? An ambulance? That costs money! No, no!"

Upon hearing that an ambulance was being called, the old woman hurriedly tried to get up to stop them, but the captain had been prepared and held her down firmly, not letting her make any unnecessary movements.

"Don't worry, I'm familiar with that place. I'll have them give you a discount!"

After saying this, he flashed a kind smile, which allowed the old woman to fall asleep peacefully.

"Captain, we found her!"

Soon, Fang Yang and the officer walked out carrying the little girl.

"This old hag is truly not a human being. She knocked her granddaughter unconscious and actually hid her in a bucket!"

The officer had searched everywhere and couldn't find the little girl, and was getting anxious. It was Fang Yang who used his sensitive ears to hear the little girl's faint moans.

"Where's the ambulance?"

"It's almost here."

The captain nodded slightly, indicating that his team member had done a good job. This affirmation made the young man shyly scratch his head.

"By the way, then... what about her?"

On the ground, the old woman, who had fallen into a peaceful sleep because of the ambulance discount, was suddenly quiet, which actually made them feel uncomfortable.

Old lady, get up and party!

997, Rumors aren't reliable, poor little girl! (Seeking full subscription)

"Mr. Chen Nan, Mr. Fang Yang, I, on behalf of this little girl, thank you both."

The captain expressed his sincere gratitude to the two. Their bureau had come to this place many times, but most attempts ended in failure, either because the old woman would throw a tantrum or the little girl was too threatened to admit anything. Even though neighbors had reported it many times, the situation remained unresolved.

When the dispatcher heard the little girl's address clearly and told everyone with an embarrassed look, everyone looked at each other, but no one volunteered to take the case.

It wasn't for any other reason than that she was too difficult to deal with; it had even escalated to the front door of their bureau.

This time, it was undoubtedly a great way to vent their frustration!

"Beep-beep, beep-beep~"

As the ambulance arrived, perhaps because the sound was too loud, the old woman slowly stirred and woke up.

"Mm, what's that sound?"

"Ouch, you're awake. Perfect, the ambulance is here, it'll only cost a few hundred!"

As soon as these words were out, the old woman fell back into a peaceful sleep.

Hey! Isn't it said that the older people get, the less they sleep? It seems rumors aren't reliable either!

"Pfft~"

…………

"There's nothing left for us to do here, let's go back."

Chen Nan watched as the little girl was sent to the hospital and the old woman was taken to the police station, and the police were still contacting the little girl's father. Upon learning this news, the two breathed a sigh of relief. That's good. If there was no one to take care of the little girl because the old woman was in the station, they really wouldn't have known what to do.

"What do you mean there's nothing left? We need to cover the little girl's medical expenses."

Fang Yang rolled his eyes at Chen Nan. Her father was still in the hospital, and he was already sick. Not to mention resting properly, was he supposed to treat and take care of his own daughter?

"Oh, right. Look at me, I forgot. Now that the old woman probably won't be out for a while, should we also cover some for the little girl's father?"

"... No need. We covered the little girl's because we like her. If we add her father's, they'll feel obligated to pay us back. That would be another expense for them."
