Screams and noises were deafening.

Without hesitation, Liu Mei went over and shouted, "What are you doing?! Let her go! You have no right to restrict someone's personal freedom!"

"Help! Help me! Please save me!"

"None of your business! Little girl, don't meddle! We're father and daughter!"

"I'm a police officer!" Liu Mei pulled at her coat, then suddenly remembered she had taken off her police uniform. She quickly grabbed her identification. "Look carefully, I'm a police officer! I'm asking you to let go and stand against the wall!"

"Help! Officer! Help! I'm not her daughter! Don't let him take me back! I'll be finished if I go back! Help!"

Snapped!

A loud slap rang out.

"You ugly bitch! How could I have given birth to such an ungrateful wretch?! I'm telling you, I'll tie you up and take you back no matter what! If your brother can't get married, the whole neighborhood will be talking about me!"

"It's his own fault for not being ambitious and just loafing around all day! What does it have to do with me?! Why should I be dragged into this?!"

"Let her go!" Liu Mei stepped forward, kicked the man aside, and blocked the trembling woman. "No matter who you are, you can't take her away by force! I'm a police officer, this is my identification, you're coming with me to the police station!"

"Fuck you! You nosy bitch, mind your own business! Do you think I'm afraid of you?!"

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Mei felt a flash of cold light before her eyes, and her heart sank. But at that moment, she felt a sudden burning sensation in a certain part of her body, and her body reacted and shrank back before her thoughts could process it.

puff.

The sound of tearing fabric came, identification fell to the ground, and the police badge lay on the floor in the dappled light.

Liu Mei raised her hand to cover her waist and slowly knelt down.

The man glanced at the police badge and then at the woman kneeling on the ground. His anger, which had been rising, was instantly extinguished, as if a bucket of water had been poured over it.

He took a few steps back and then ran away!

"Officer! How are you?! Are you alright?! Don't scare me!" The woman rushed over, her face covered in tears.

"I'm fine." Liu Mei shook her head, took out her phone to call her teammates, and then slowly took out the weapon.

A fruit knife with rust on its blade.

She put the knife aside; her clothes had only been torn. She shone her phone light on the tear and noticed a faint red mark.

Liu Mei recalled the sudden, scalding sensation she had just experienced. She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and took out the pen from her pocket.

The sudden, scalding touch that made her body reflexively dodge the weapon was from this pen...

After thinking for a moment, Liu Mei unscrewed the back of the pen, and in addition to the normal structure, a lot of black powder was spilled out.

"Officer, how are you?!"

Liu Mei was startled awake by the woman's voice. She found a piece of paper, collected some of the black powder, and then stood up. "My colleague will be here soon. I need you to come back with me to make a statement."

"Okay! Okay! I'll definitely cooperate." The woman nodded repeatedly.

Seeing that the other person was crying and snotting, and was trembling with fear, Liu Mei handed her a tissue, saying, "Don't worry, no one will take you away. You're safe."

Upon hearing this, the woman broke down in tears. "I was planning to go to another city this morning. It's all my fault. I was too greedy. I wanted to give my work a good ending. It's all my fault."

"It's not your fault," Liu Mei comforted her softly. "It's all someone else's fault, you did nothing wrong."

.

The next morning, Xia Wange arrived at the company entrance on time. After all, it was her first day of work after reaching an agreement with Lu Qiu, so she had to make a show of it.

Her figure, dragging her suitcase, standing at the door was so conspicuous that it drew the attention of many people entering the company. However, after recognizing her, they all greeted her.

Xia Wange was never pretentious, and she greeted them with a good morning.

Just then, she spotted someone standing on one side of the gate.

Raising her hand to shield her eyebrows with the brim of her hat, Xia Wange finally recognized her as the policewoman from yesterday.

Last night, she felt a golden light of merit surrounding her, and judging by the intensity, it could actually extend her life by two months.

Xia Wange was stunned. She knew that the policewoman was a very good person, but she did not expect that she would receive so much merit after saving her!

You should know that the more someone contributes to the world, the more merit they receive for saving her. Over the years, she has saved countless people, and the merit she has accumulated is calculated in days, and sometimes even hours.

It's easy to imagine how shocking it must have been for her to accumulate two months' worth of merit in one fell swoop.

Without hesitation, Xia Wange strode toward the merit, no, toward the policewoman.

"My name is Liu Mei. I'm the police officer who contacted you yesterday. I'm here to discuss a personal matter. Could I possibly take up some of your time?"

"Of course." Xia Wange looked around and noticed a shady tree and a stone bench nearby, so she pointed and asked, "Would that work?"

Liu Mei looked over and said, "Okay."

So Xia Wange dragged her suitcase over, gently placed it on the ground, and then plopped down on it, pointing to the stone stool. "Sit."

Liu Mei glanced at the stone pier, then at Xia Wange, and sat down without saying anything.

Looking at the stone bench, Xia Wan, with her elbows propped on her knees and her palms supporting her chin, wondered if she should wipe the stone bench that had given her two more months of life.

There are many good people, but very few who can extend her life like she did.

Liu Mei has always been straightforward. She took out a fountain pen from her pocket, and then a small transparent bag full of black powder. "This black powder was found inside the barrel at the back of the pen. My colleague said it was left after the paper burned. You were the only one who touched this pen yesterday."

Xia Wange was silent for a moment, unsure of how to begin. After all, given the other person's profession, saying too much could give them leverage against her and ultimately harm her.

"I'm not here to pry," Liu Mei said quickly when she saw that he was silent. "I'm here to express my gratitude. This pen saved my life last night. I had an accident yesterday, and it suddenly got hot, which made my body react instinctively and avoid it. Yesterday, the mother of the deceased said that you were a sorcerer and asked us to arrest you. I originally thought that supernatural things were nonsense, but my personal experience points to another direction."

"Sigh, how about this," Xia Wange said evasively, considering the other person's profession, "Give me five hundred yuan, and I'll tell you a story, okay?"

Liu Mei was taken aback.

Xia Wange scratched her head and said, "It's not that I don't want to negotiate the price with you, it's just that I've already set a price for the stories, and I can't change it."

Liu Mei didn't say anything, and directly transferred five hundred.

She was willing to accept anything, not just five hundred, but all her savings, since the other party saved her life.

She asked her colleagues, and they said that if she had been stabbed yesterday, she would have had a very slim chance of survival.

Xia Wange casually donated all the money she received, then slowly began to speak: "Twenty-six years ago, in the winter, a little girl was born in a remote mountain village. Her birth was not blessed, so her father gave her the single character 'Mei' (没), hoping she would disappear..."
