Chapter 290: Acting Bravely

290

At night, Xu Taiping received a call from Su Nianci, saying that she wanted to treat him to dinner.

Xu Taiping changed out of his security uniform without much thought, then took a taxi and headed to Nancheng District.

The place where Su Nianci entertained guests was a small restaurant next to Nancheng Railway Station. Because it was a little far away from the train station, this small restaurant was not considered a scam.

Su Nianci only invited Xu Taiping and ordered five dishes and one soup. It was considered a sumptuous meal, but there was no wine.

"I have to be on duty at the train station in the evening, so I can't drink. I'll drink Coke instead." Su Nianci smiled and picked up the Coke and poured a cup for Xu Taiping and himself.

"Are you still used to it?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I'm not used to it." Su Nianci shook her head, then picked up the cup and touched it with Xu Taiping, and said, "Thank you for saving me last time, and for coming to Nancheng Railway Station with me that day. I haven't found the time yet, so I feel I really can’t put it off any longer, so I’ll treat you to this dinner.”

"Isn't today Saturday? Do you still have to go to work?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

"It was arranged by the director, and there is nothing I can do about it." Su Nianci sighed and said, "Everyone knows that I was sent to Nancheng Police Station because I offended the director, so they are more or less kind to me. I I’m just telling you, don’t tell anyone else.”

"Who should I talk to outside? Tell my subordinates that a female police officer has been bullied?" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"It's not like I was bullied. I just came here, so I have to do more things, and everyone wants to please the director, so they are naturally a little harsher on me." Su Nianci said.

"It's normal." Xu Taiping nodded and said, "It's not necessarily that people are targeting you. After all, you are a newcomer. Newcomers will always be bullied. It is regarded as a show of intimidation. I just Weren't we also bullied when we went to the security department? But things got better later. In fact, most people don't have any bad intentions."

"Yes!" Su Nianci nodded and said, "I believe that as long as I can achieve results, everyone will be impressed by me."

"You have to be careful. There is a lot of people at the train station. You will never know if the person asking you to check your ID card is a gangster with several murder cases on his back, so you have to be careful about everything and run away if something goes wrong. You know? Don’t show off!" Xu Taiping said.

"Don't show off." Su Nianci shook his head and said, "I know how much I weigh."

"That's good!"

The meal was uneventful. Su Nianci was not in a high mood. Because he had to go to work next, he didn't drink. After finishing the meal, the two of them walked to the door of the restaurant together. Su Nianci sighed and said to Xu Taiping Said, "Honestly, as a friend and a good friend, I still want to repeat what I said to you before. This road is not easy to take. If you can retreat, leave early."

"It's almost time to retreat," Xu Taiping said.

Su Nianci had no hope of convincing Xu Taiping, but she didn't expect Xu Taiping to give such an answer. She looked at Xu Taiping in surprise and said, "Are you telling the truth?"

"Yeah." Xu Taiping nodded and said, "If I hadn't embarked on this path, then maybe there wouldn't be so many shackles that would make my life less free and easy."

"What's wrong with you recently? I feel a little weird." Su Nianci frowned and said.

"Nothing, I suddenly figured out something. Don't worry about me. You will receive the news soon. It's time for a new person in Nancheng District." Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"If you really think so, I will definitely set up a table to invite you. It is much better to be an ordinary person than to be in this industry." Su Nianci said.

"Well, you go to work. Remember, be careful." Xu Taiping warned, "Be sure to be careful about the people around you."

"Okay, I understand, let's go!" Su Nianci said goodbye to Xu Taiping with a smile, and then headed to Nancheng Railway Station.

Xu Taiping stood at the door of the hotel and lit a cigarette for himself.

Under the night, Su Nianci was drifting away in the distance, and in a dark corner, there was a figure staring at Su Nianci.

This figure was so well hidden that Su Nianci didn't notice it, but to Xu Taiping, the king in the shadows, this person was as obvious as a black spot under the scorching sun.

Seeing Su Nianci leaving, the figure quietly followed Su Nianci. He hid in the shadows so that Su Nianci could not detect his presence.

Xu Taiping took three puffs of a cigarette, then put out the cigarette butt, put his hands in his pockets, and walked slowly in the direction of Su Nianci.

Nancheng Railway Station.

In the huge square, people were coming and going.

Even though it's already dark, the traffic here is still very high.

Su Nianci had a baton on her waist and a machine for checking ID cards in her hand. She stared around. Whenever she saw anyone suspicious, she would step forward to check their ID cards.

Although she was assigned to work overtime, Su Nianci was not unhappy. For her, if she worked more hours, she might catch one more bad guy.

Of course, this can only be regarded as self-comfort.

Under the night, exhaustion was written on the faces of people coming and going.

Su Nianci yawned. She had just finished eating and felt somewhat sleepy. She moved her hands and feet to try to drive away the sleepiness.

Suddenly, Su Nianci heard a rush of footsteps.

As a policeman, Su Nianci was very wary of such sudden sounds. In addition, Xu Taiping had specially reminded him before. Therefore, when the sound of rapid footsteps came, Su Nianci turned around and looked at the voice. direction of coming.

A young man was walking toward her quickly, holding a machete in his hand!

This young man definitely looked no older than eighteen, with a childlike look on his face. He walked very fast. When Su Nianci saw him, he was less than three meters away from Su Nianci!

Su Nianci was startled and instinctively stepped back. The young man quickened his pace, rushed towards Su Nianci, and then slashed at Su Nianci with a knife.

This slash was so powerful and heavy that it was like cutting to death.

Su Nianci retreated in time. When the sword came down, she took a few steps back and avoided the sword. Then, the young man went crazy and slashed at Su Nianci.

This kind of unstructured slashing consumes a lot of physical strength, and the effect is not very obvious.

As an outstanding graduate of the police academy, Su Nianci was very aware of the shortcomings of this kind of slashing. She calmly and continuously stepped back without panicking at all.

At this moment, with a bang, Su Nianci's body suddenly stopped!

While she was retreating rapidly, she bumped into a person who was walking to the side with his luggage!

This collision caused Su Nianci's body to stop and also caused her body to lose its balance.

Su Nianci forcibly controlled the balance of her body. Just as she was about to hide, she suddenly thought that there was a person behind her. If she hid, the knife might hit the person behind her!

In this instant, Su Nianci turned around sharply and faced the machete from behind.

Under such circumstances, if the machete hits her, it will hit her back. Compared with the front, the damage caused by hitting the back will be much less.

The muscles all over Su Nianci's body were tense, and cold sweat broke out in an instant. At this time, she also saw the look of the person blocking her.

This is a very ordinary girl, wearing ordinary clothes and holding a woven bag in her hand. She seems to have just come out to work.

Su Nianci saw the frightened expression on her face, and for some reason, she opened her hands and hugged the little girl in front of her.

She must ensure that this little girl will not be affected by the random knife!

There was a dull thud.

Su Nianci did not feel pain, but heard the sound of something falling to the ground.

Su Nianci suddenly turned around and saw that the young man holding the machete fell to the ground, and next to him, a migrant worker wearing a safety helmet was flying towards the young man.

Although she didn't know what happened, Su Nianci immediately rushed towards the young man on the ground.

The young man never expected that a migrant worker would suddenly appear next to him. The migrant worker kicked him down. Before he could stand up, the migrant worker and the female police officer rushed over together.

The young man was about to get up from the ground. At this moment, a huge force came from behind his head. The young man's head was kicked hard, and he suddenly became confused.

With a bang, Su Nianci flew directly onto the young man, pinned him down, and then grabbed the young man's hand with a joint.

With a bang, the knife in the young man's hand fell to the ground, and was kicked away by the onlookers who rushed over.

Su Nianci skillfully cuffed the young man's hands behind his back, then breathed a sigh of relief and quickly looked at the person who kicked the young man.

That was also an ordinary person passing by. He seemed to have seen someone attacking the police here, so he ran over quickly, just behind the young man, and then kicked the young man directly in the head.

"Thank you all." Su Nianci said with sincere gratitude.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." The migrant worker who had kicked the young man away shyly waved his hand, then walked to the side, put his luggage on his shoulders again, and then walked towards the entrance to look at him. He looked like he didn't even intend to leave his name, and the man who kicked the young man didn't leave his name either, turned around and walked away.

The young man with his hands handcuffed behind his back kept struggling. Su Nianci could only press him while calling for help. She had no time to thank the two people who helped.

By the time the supporting police officers arrived, the two people had disappeared from Su Nianci's sight.

Xu Taiping stood in the dark, watching all this with an inexplicable smile on his face.

He originally planned to save Su Nianci, but he did not expect that people passing by would take action bravely, and it was not just these two people. Xu Taiping alone saw that those who rushed over when they saw Su Nianci being attacked at least had to There are seven or eight! However, the attacker was controlled in the blink of an eye, and those people did not continue to rush over.

It is said that society has become indifferent now, but I didn't expect that something like this could happen here at Nancheng Railway Station. This made Xu Taiping's cold heart feel inexplicably warm.
