Chapter 194 My knife is a bit heavy
Xiao Wei stood majestically on the half-person-high counter, but he was actually very nervous.
If his young lady had not said that she had arranged people nearby to report to the police as soon as anyone caused trouble, he would definitely not dare to stand so high now.
But even so, Xiao Wei couldn't help but feel nervous when facing this group of masked men.
Who knows when the government officials will arrive? Who knows if this group of people are extremely vicious and cruel?
But no matter how scared he was, he had to follow the lady's instructions and guard the shop.
This is his mission.
A group of people looked at the brave Xiao Wei in front of them. They didn't have the heart to move for a moment, but just kept waving the knife in front of them.
The two sides were in a stalemate, looking at each other. The situation was tense and a fight was imminent.
Suddenly, Xiao Wei remembered that Hunter Ye gave him a bamboo tube before leaving.
As long as someone makes trouble and finds an opportunity to set off the fireworks, someone will come to support them immediately.
Although he didn't know what kind of people a hunter could find for support, Xiao Wei felt that more people and more fists could help hold on for a while longer.
Having made up his mind, he jumped down from the cabinet before the masked men could recover from the shock of him turning over and standing on the cabinet.
However, Xiao Wei did not jump directly into the crowd. Instead, he jumped behind the counter and then went around to the back door.
The back door was connected to a small courtyard of the restaurant. Without thinking, he took out the bamboo tube given by Ye Lingqiu and sent out a signal.
The group of masked men were speechless. Why didn't this guy play by the rules?
Phew~bang!
The small fireworks that popped out of the bamboo tube were not noticeable in the daytime, but they were very loud.
He looked so brave and invincible just now, but now he is sending a signal?
You want to send a signal, but you act like you're going to fight to the death?
The masked leader narrowed his eyes and saw that he was no longer in the lobby, so he called for his men to start smashing things.
But before he could lift a chair and drop it, he felt a sharp pain in his waist.
Turning around, he saw a dark-skinned girl with a high ponytail smiling sweetly at him: "It's you who wants to destroy the shop!"
Sui Sui was smiling, holding a short knife in his hand, which didn't look very lethal.
The masked leader also laughed.
He thought the boy was sending a signal to find some powerful helper. So, he just called over some little girl!
"Little sister, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. My brother's knife is very heavy, and it's no joke if it hits you."
Suisui is not very tall, and in the eyes of the masked man, she looks like a little girl who has not yet reached the age of marriage and knows a little bit of martial arts at most.
"Boy, I advise you not to touch this shop, otherwise my fist will hit you and it will not be a joke." Sui Sui copied his words, changed them and hit him back.
"Hahaha!" A hearty laugh came from the side, and the masked man realized that the little girl didn't come to help alone.
There were two men with her.
One of them looked to have gray hair and was at least in his early fifties, while the other was a burly man.
"Sui Sui, this guy looks down on you." Uncle Da, with half of his face covered with coarse cloth, smiled and knocked a masked man unconscious with a punch, while saying to Sui Sui.
Sui Sui curled her lips and said, "I can see that."
The next moment, she raised her fist, which was not even half the size of the masked man's, and said, "Then let him see how hard my fist is!"
After saying that, he punched the masked man in the face.
Before the masked man could react, he was hit in the nose with another punch.
Although she was clearly a head shorter than the man, Suisui's punches hit every target, knocking the masked man half unconscious. He had to rely on her to hold him up and prevent himself from falling to the floor.
Xiao Wei was stunned by the scene before him. This girl was so fierce! So vicious!
Looks so familiar!
But where had he seen such a lively girl? Why didn’t he remember?
In the blink of an eye, a group of masked men were knocked to the ground by Sui Sui and his two companions.
"Solved, let's go!"
Sui Sui didn't even say hello to Xiao Wei. He waved his hand and left with Uncle Da and the other man.
Those who knew that they were there to help thought that they were there to rob people, while those who didn’t thought that they were there to rob people.
Not long after the three men left, the officers and soldiers arrived in a hurry.
When they heard that someone was smashing a shop with a knife, the officers and soldiers took it seriously and sent a group of people with weapons in their hands.
When I entered the door, I was startled by the masked men all over the floor.
Fortunately, the lobby of this shop is big enough, otherwise there would be no room for so many people to lie down.
The head of Hengshui County was named Fu. He glanced around the hall briefly, then looked at Xiao Wei, the only person still there, and asked:
"what happened?"
Xiao Wei said, "I don't know either. These people rushed in and wanted to smash my shop. All the people who worked for me were scared away."
"Why are they lying down? Did you beat them?" asked Fu Dutou.
Xiao Wei raised his hands with an innocent look on his face: "I didn't do anything. It was a few heroes who couldn't stand it and taught them a lesson."
What he said was also taught by Ye Lingqiu.
Fu Dutou: .....
"Alright, take everyone back and let the adults decide their fate."
Fu Dutou waved his hand, and the officers helped the people who had fainted on the ground up one by one and took them to the county government office.
When leaving, Fu Dutou asked Xiao Wei to follow.
"Should I go too?" Xiao Wei glanced at the messy lobby with concern.
"My young lady asked me to take good care of the shop. If I leave, what if someone comes to cause trouble?" he said.
Fu Dutou rolled his eyes at him and said, "Did your young lady offend someone? Why does everyone want to destroy her shop?"
Why is the public security in Hengshui County so chaotic?
"No, someone coveted this shop but failed to rent it. Our young lady rented it, so they came to make trouble." Xiao Wei said truthfully.
Then he added, "Oh, the dentist from the pawnshop can testify, as can the landlord of the shop."
These words were naturally taught to him by Shen Yitian.
His words are not credible, but if there are witnesses, they will be much more credible.
Fu Dutou glanced at him suspiciously again, but finally chose to believe him.
He left a yamen runner here to watch over it, and ordered someone to call the pawnbroker and the landlord to go to the yamen for questioning. Only then did Xiao Wei feel at ease to follow them.
Not far away, Sui Sui and Uncle Da had not gone far.
Seeing Xiao Wei being taken away, Sui Sui was a little worried.
"Uncle Da, others are causing trouble, why did these police officers take that kid away?"
"It's just a routine question, don't panic." Uncle Da replied.
At this time, he had taken off the coarse cloth that covered half of his face, revealing a face that was almost the same as Ye Lingqiu's current one.
In other words, the disguised Ye Lingqiu looks exactly like him when he was young.
But, he has a bit more momentum than him.
"What's there to ask? Those people covered their faces and it was obvious they were here to cause trouble. Isn't that obvious?" Sui Sui didn't understand the government's actions and felt very angry.
"This is how the government handles cases. They have to ask clear questions and keep clear records." Uncle Da explained patiently.
I felt a little distressed for this little girl whom I had watched grow up.
If her family had not been wrongly accused and executed, she would be a daughter of an official now and would not have to ask others about these things.
