Chapter 580 A Heartless Beast! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
The Lantern Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, is just around the corner!

The area around Gulou Street is quite lively at night with its dazzling lanterns.

At the request of his younger sister Ai Hong, Wu Aiguo specially accompanied her to see the lanterns tonight, and incidentally acted as a heartless 'ATM'.

Although Ai Hong has excellent grades and Wu Aiguo's support, her situation at home has improved significantly.

But as the saying goes, prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain!
The idea of ​​valuing sons over daughters cannot be changed overnight.

At least when it comes to pocket money, stepmother Zhang Li is quite stingy with Ai Hong.

If it weren't for Wu Aiguo's occasional financial assistance, I probably wouldn't have a single penny in my pocket.

Of course, Wu Aiguo wouldn't give more.

Every time I encountered this situation, I would give a little bit, one or two cents, which was neither much nor little.

Sure enough, while strolling around and looking at the lanterns, I encountered more than one person running a small food business using portable honeycomb briquette stoves.

Tea eggs, fried cakes, and of course, candied hawthorn berries.

They ate as they walked, and the cost wasn't high, but their stomachs were quickly filled again. Ai Hong rubbed her belly while chatting and laughing happily.

"It's about time, we should head back!"

Looking at his watch, it was 8:20 PM, and Wu Aiguo spoke.

If this were in later generations, they might not even have had dinner yet, and their nightlife wouldn't have even begun.

Back in 1963, going to bed early and waking up early were the norm!

"OK then!"

Ai Hong was a little reluctant to part, but she still obediently nodded: "Next time it's a holiday, big brother, you can take me out to play again!"

Seeing the little girl's pleading eyes, Wu Aiguo nodded in agreement.

Wu Ai's face immediately lit up with joy!

They were jumping and skipping around happily, but one can only say that Wu Zhi and Zhang Li, that couple, are truly a disgrace.

"Wait a minute, just stay where you are!"

Just then, Wu Aiguo suddenly spoke up and, without waiting for Ai Hong to reply, strode towards the middle-aged woman across the street.

The middle-aged woman was dressed simply, holding a sleeping child in her arms, and walking hurriedly as if she had something urgent to attend to.

"stop!"

Wu Aiguo stood directly in front of the middle-aged woman and said in a deep voice, "I am a police officer. Please come with me!"

His loud and imposing voice immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd.

"The police are beating people!"

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged woman suddenly threw the child in her arms at Wu Aiguo, and at the same time shouted and ran away.

Go to hell!
Wu Aiguo gently caught the sleeping child with one hand, and at the same time, he swayed and kicked the middle-aged woman away, leaving her unable to get up for a long time.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?"

"He not only snatched the child but also assaulted someone; he's definitely not a good person!"

"Call the police immediately! Don't let this guy get away!"

"..."

Immediately, someone nearby shouted loudly, inciting the surrounding crowd to surround Wu Aiguo.

"I am a police officer!"

Wu Aiguo's face was cold and stern. He held the still unconscious child in one arm and lifted the hem of his military overcoat with the other, revealing the security guard uniform underneath, which was no different from what the police officers at the police station wore.

While explaining, he also kicked the loudest guy unconscious, a clean, swift, and decisive move.

This startled the onlookers.

"Gentlemen, those two guys are probably human traffickers. Help me subdue them, and we'll go to the police station together!"

Wu Aiguo sneered, "The child in my arms has probably been drugged, otherwise, with all that commotion just now, how could he still not have woken up!"

"Damn it, those two guys are definitely suspicious!"

"Those two guys are too cunning. I even doubted the police officers just now. I really shouldn't have done that!" "Me too, what that guy was saying was so deceptive!"

"..."

The surrounding crowd was relieved and began to help restrain the middle-aged couple, then followed Wu Aiguo to the police station.

The masses of this era are highly conscious and enthusiastic!
If this were in later generations, the number of onlookers willing to get involved in such matters would be pitifully small.

Who knows if that middle-aged man and woman human traffickers had any accomplices?

What if being too proactive gets you targeted and people start picking on you?
Wu Aihong saw everything and followed after them with sparkling eyes.

When they arrived at the police station, chaos ensued once again.

Even though the onlookers who followed knew that Wu Aiguo was not a police officer, no one said anything.

Being able to successfully rescue abducted children from human traffickers is already considered extremely lucky; how can we criticize anything else?

Besides, Wu Aiguo is the head of the security department of the Gulou Repair Factory, which is no different from the police in the eyes of ordinary people.

Wu Aiguo's guess was correct; the middle-aged man and woman were human traffickers.

As for the child he brought, he was indeed drugged and knocked unconscious.

After an emergency examination by the doctor, it was found that there was nothing seriously wrong, and they were relieved.

"Comrade Wu Aiguo, we owe you so much this time!"

Old Li said gratefully, "I saved a child!"

"It should!"

Wu Aiguo shook his head and said, "Actually, I find it hard to understand. Everyone is having a very difficult time, so why would anyone want to have children?"

"Sigh, who knows what some people are thinking?"

Old Li said helplessly, "Every year, children go missing in the police station's jurisdiction, but we don't have many leads even if we want to investigate!"

Wu Aiguo didn't say much. After the statement was taken, he took his leave and left. His mood wasn't affected much.

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world!
When he has the ability, he doesn't mind doing more.

Now that we've encountered this situation, there's no reason for us to just stand by and watch.

"Were you scared?"

Only then did he have the mind to observe his younger sister's mental state.

"Big brother is really amazing!"

Wu Aihong's big eyes sparkled as she asked admiringly, "Big brother, I've heard you're very skilled in martial arts. Could you teach me?"

"Oh, you want to learn martial arts?"

Wu Aiguo chuckled and said, "Practicing martial arts is very hard work!"

"I'm not afraid of hardship!"

Wu Aihong said with a determined look, "I also want to learn from my older brother and have the ability to deal with bad guys when I encounter them!"

"You seem to see things clearly!"

Wu Aiguo laughed heartily and said leisurely, "Alright, I'll teach you a set of stance training and fist techniques tomorrow!"

After thinking about it, I realized that in a few years, when Wu Aihong reaches that age, she will be very vulnerable to harm.

Having martial arts skills for self-defense can really help avoid a lot of danger.

The brother and sister chatted and laughed as they left the police station, where they encountered a group of people who looked panicked, including a young woman with tears streaming down her face.

Wu Aiguo knew what was going on and was immediately relieved.

By the time I got home, it was already past 9:30.

Zhang Li didn't want to say anything to Wu Aiguo, her stepson, but she didn't let Wu Aihong off the hook, scolding her for a long time before she calmed down.

This time, Wu Aiguo didn't offer any help, but exchanged a glance with his younger sister and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
