Mr. Su's Love Investigation Report
Chapter 220

Chapter 220: Chapter 220

Tu Hengsha shook with anger. Suddenly, she remembered the threatening call she had received at the newspaper office earlier and felt a chill all over her body. The person behind this had really orchestrated a series of links; who knew what awaited her ahead?

The subway car was full of people. She didn’t believe that this shameless hooligan would dare do anything to her in public! She immediately grabbed the man’s sleeve, fearless and dignified, "I’m calling the police right now. If you have the guts, don’t run! Why am I doing this? I’m not afraid to tell the police the truth! Do you dare to repeat what you just said to the police? Everyone, right and wrong can naturally be clarified at the police station! Is he a scumbag or not? The police will make a fair judgment! I’m calling the police immediately! Please help me block him, don’t let him escape at the next station! I don’t believe that in broad daylight, a vile and despicable person can act so brazenly!"

Tu Hengsha did take out her phone to call the police. Seeing a slender girl like her so upright and righteous, with each word resonating powerfully, those around her had already sided with her. Furthermore, everyone already harbored resentment towards the subway perverts, and their contemptuous and hateful stares focused on the man.

The subway did arrive at a station, and another wave of people got on. The man couldn’t squeeze his way out, nor would anyone let him. Several burly men directly surrounded him and held him down.

As Tu Hengsha finished the call to the police, the subway started moving again.

She first thanked the uncles and brothers who helped hold down the pervert, "I’ve called the police; they’ll be waiting at the next station."

Only then did the man begin to panic and pleaded, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, miss; I was blinded by lust and accidentally touched you. It really wasn’t intentional. Please be forgiving and let me off this time!" He then begged the men holding him, "Brothers, I was wrong, it’s my first time, please let me go? If I go to the police station, I’ll have no face to show anyone again!"

"You still want to be human? When you were doing bad things and bullying a young girl, why didn’t you think about being a decent person?" A man forcefully pushed his head down.

Regardless of what the subway pervert said, nobody intended to let him go. At the next station, sure enough, there were police waiting to take him away.

Tu Hengsha also needed to go to the police station. Several of the other helpful men followed to be witnesses. When she got off the subway, an aunt even took off her coat and draped it over Tu Hengsha’s shoulders, "Girl, it’s cold outside, put this on."

Tu Hengsha’s day-long gloom suddenly felt warmed. Seeing the aunt only in a sweater, she tried to give it back, but the aunt held her hand firmly, "Keep it on, keep it on. I’ll just call my husband to bring a coat to pick me up. It’s not cold inside the subway!"

With that, she gently pushed her out of the subway.

When she turned back, the subway doors were already closing slowly.

"Thank you." Although the aunt could no longer hear her, she still expressed her gratitude. It was, after all, a thank you for the warmth of the human world she had continuously encountered.

At the police station, the pervert wilted completely, admitting without dispute to harassing Tu Hengsha but only insisting it was due to his own evil intentions.

After clarifying the incident, Tu Hengsha left. How to handle it was the police’s job. Surprisingly, the men who had left earlier were still waiting for her, offering her words of comfort, telling her not to be afraid before leaving.

She thanked them again and continued her way home. However, it was already late, and by the time she emerged from the Hongliu Road subway exit, the sky was completely dark.

There were still about seven or eight hundred meters from the subway to the school. Having walked this road for ten or twenty years, she knew everyone along the way and was not scared at all. Yet after all, the night had fallen completely, and there were few passersby. As she walked, she inexplicably felt her hair standing on end.

Was it because her pants were soaked and too cold?

She quickened her pace, walked a dozen steps, and realized something was off; someone was following her!

She quickly turned around, but no one was there...

Ha! She sneered. The serial drama just kept getting more exciting!

She continued walking, faintly feeling someone was following her again. So she slowed down, and at a section of the road where there was nowhere to hide, she estimated the distance, suddenly turned around, and saw a man wearing a hat and mask about four or five meters away, looking around frantically, probably not finding a place to hide and feeling a bit panicked.

Tu Hengsha stood her ground, staring at him intently.

After a brief fluster, the man steadied himself and sneered, "Not scared?"

From about four meters away, Tu Hengsha could feel the chilling undertone in his words. However, she felt confident inside. Walking another ten meters, she would officially turn onto the road leading to the Hongliu Road Primary School, where the first shop at the corner was Grandpa Pang’s fried dumpling shop. As long as she shouted loudly, Grandpa Pang could hear.

"What exactly do you want?" she demanded.

The man removed his hat, revealing a pair of ruthless eyes, "Don’t want anything! Just you!"

"..." Tu Hengsha was so angry she was speechless. Recalling the subway pervert, she knew it would be futile to learn the mastermind’s identity from this person. After the anger subsided, she firmly told him, "Go back and tell your master to bring on whatever tricks they have! I, Tu Hengsha, have a clear conscience, worthy of the heavens’ and earth’s justice, worthy of this profession of journalism! The net of justice may be vast but not neglected, whether right or wrong, heaven will be just! I’m not afraid! It’s your master who should be cautious, having done so many guilty things!"

Having said that, she turned and strode home, soon seeing Grandpa Pang at the shop door stoking the stove, the orange light illuminating the small road brightly.

The person behind did not follow further. She figured he realized that all along the way, the small shops were occupied, and he wouldn’t dare. Still, she vaguely heard the man’s voice calling from behind, "See you tomorrow! Miss Reporter!"

Tomorrow? Would she have to face the same ordeal as today? She broke into a run.

It wasn’t until she got home that she realized her legs were still weak. Even though she kept mentally fortifying herself, and telling both herself and the stalker that she wasn’t afraid, deep down she was a bit scared. Using up all her courage, after finally reaching a safe place, she was left with a drained sense of weakness.

At home, Shu Hui was very worried. Seeing her relieved yet inquisitive, she asked, "Little Sha, what exactly happened? Why are so many people online insulting you so harshly?"

Shu Hui usually only went online to look at teaching materials and never paid attention to anything else. Tu Hengsha didn’t expect her to find out so quickly.

"If it weren’t for a colleague in the office telling me, I’d still be in the dark! Who are these people hurling insults? What right do they have to speak about you like this? Did you offend them?" Shu Hui did not understand the current online public opinion. Her beloved daughter was being slandered with such awful words, and her heart ached as if bleeding!

Tu Hengsha didn’t want to look at the vulgar words on the internet again. Just thinking about them made her head feel heavy. She dared not mention the two hooligans that she had encountered tonight to Shu Hui, fearing her mother would worry.
