The man holding a rolling pin looked to be around forty years old. He pushed the old man out of the noodle restaurant, grumbling, "I spent money to rent this place, but it's worthless even if the God himself comes!"
Today, Su Dongyang was wearing a gray Zhongshan suit. His chest was repeatedly pushed, making his face filled with white flour paste.
He kept backing up until he reached Jin Wuduan's side, his face turning red and unable to catch his breath.
Startled by the terrifying man, Siniang instinctively took a step back. However, despite her fear, she still trembled as she reached out a shaking hand to help the old man.
On this snowy winter day, with the old man having fragile arms and legs, it would be troublesome if he were to fall.
As soon as Si Nian reached out his hand, before he could even touch the old man, someone grabbed him by the waist.
And then, he watched helplessly as Jin Wuduan delivered a kick to the old man's leg, and helplessly watched as the old man retaliated against that man...
Kneeling down.
On a bitterly cold winter day, Su Dongyang was dressed warmly, but he was still kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath and unable to climb up.
Jin Wuduan, with Siniian holding him back, prevented his attempt to help someone. He took out his phone and pretended not to recognize anyone, loudly exclaiming, "Hey hey hey? How could this shop owner hit an old person?"
He took a deep breath, his voice clear and distinct, and with a loud shout, he attracted the attention of many onlookers from all directions.
The man never expected such a scene. Afraid that the old man was trying to cheat him, he pointed his rolling pin at the kneeling Su Dongyang and said, "I didn't even touch you! Get up quickly, or I'll beat you!"
The internet has already started to thrive in this era, but the scamming practice of autoholing has not yet become popular.
When people see elderly people in a disadvantaged position, the first thing that comes to their minds is not scheming or being unreasonable by taking advantage of their old age, but instinctively directing their hearts towards sympathy and compassion.
So Hanzi's worries were not unfounded. Jin Wuduan had indeed set his sights on him today.
Respecting the elderly and cherishing the young is a traditional virtue. The term "elderly" itself represents a vulnerable group, and furthermore, there's a saying that goes, "Respecting our elders is also respecting others' elders."
So it is necessary to sympathize with the old man, feel sorry for the old man, and help the old man.
Especially at this moment.
A strong man, holding a rolling pin, pointed at the old man kneeling on the ground unable to get up. Without mentioning his repeated self-claims as "I'm the father," just look at the two flour imprints on the old man's clothes. Who would believe he didn't hit him?
Moreover, having a set of pearly white teeth is nothing more than having a good-looking mouth. Jin Wuduan, as an eyewitness, can speak better than anyone else.
The onlookers were quickly incited, not only directly cursing at the man, but also commenting on how this young and impulsive youngster was bound to throw a couple of furious punches when he approached.
No need to beat around the bush. Anyways, these social tumors should be thoroughly removed.
Ten years ago, the public security in the imperial capital was not as good as it is now, but it hadn't reached the point where surveillance was everywhere, with deathly stares from every 360 degrees, leaving no blind spots.
The police examined the only surveillance camera at the intersection and confirmed that the man pushed Su Dongyang. After the two had physical contact, Su Dongyang lost his balance and fell to his knees.
And after the incident, the man did not show any signs of remorse. Instead of helping the elderly person on the ground, he even took out a rolling pin and gestured as if he was going to continue attacking.
Many people present can testify that the man cursed loudly throughout the entire process.
Jin Wuduan continued to add fuel to the fire with a few exaggerated words, making everyone in the crowd understand the cause and effect, causing the scene to become chaotic and filled with anger for a while.
After reaching the desired level of heat, Jin Wuduan finally escorted Sini out of the crowd.
He glanced at the photos on his phone and felt a bit regretful about the poor resolution of mobile phone cameras in this era. However, just these few pictures were sufficient.
Jin Wuduan's index finger flew as he sent some news to a newspaper that had nothing interesting to publish. He then forwarded it to a popular microblogger on a social networking site, and finally, he tagged the police station that had always been inactive as a mediator.
I can't believe there is no justice in this Imperial City.
Jin Wuduan clapped his hands and glanced at Su Dongyang, who was still surrounded by people and sobbing. He praised him, then led Sining away.
With a sigh, Sini pointed at the old man in the crowd, implying, "Are we going to ignore him?"
He is now a lonely and pitiful old man who has no one to rely on. Let's not go and shatter his image.
This is how society is, no matter how advanced or backward it may be, verbal attacks and criticism will always be the most bloodletting.
The so-called pursuit of justice requires the existence of "expansion" and "spread" before it can be followed by "righteousness" and "justice".
Today, let alone saying that guy has to give up the store, after this incident, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold his head up high anymore in the future.
It's fortunate that the internet is not yet very developed at the moment, otherwise...
Ha ha!
Jin Wuduan sneered coldly, "What's the big deal about not being able to lift his head? With the speed of information dissemination ten years later, he will definitely make that man taste the flavor of being cannibalized!"
He, who is capable, actually bullied an old man like this? He's truly spoiled!
Those who have never experienced online violence will never know what it feels like to be drowned in spit. Let them enjoy it to the fullest!
Jin Wuduan was very satisfied with his masterpiece. He stayed in place, pretending to be pitiable and seeking sympathy from the old man, leading Siniang on a shopping trip without any burden.
