Chapter 146 I Won't Be a Stillborn Baby 5
The two men's eyes widened in terror, and they began to struggle frantically. Whimpering and groaning sounds emanated from their nostrils.
Huang Xinbo was momentarily dazed, his eyes initially blank, but after realizing the situation around him, he looked shocked.
He had just married his new wife and was about to enter the bridal chamber when he was suddenly tied to the ground.
Especially after seeing three-year-old Huang Xiaoxiao, he looked completely incredulous.
That brat, that brat is still alive?
Didn't she die in the hospital a long time ago?
He looked at his wife beside him, her eyes filled with terror and her body twisting wildly, and was shocked once again.
Wasn't his ex-wife Zhao Xiaoyan already executed?
what on earth is it?
Have I been reborn?
But who tied me up here?
He turned his head and glared angrily at Xiao Xiao, who was carrying him on her back, grumbling and gesturing for the brat to come and untie him.
But the girl turned around and gave him and his wife a cold glance, her face full of impatience.
He actually saw impatience on this brat's face!
They're rebelling! Huang Xiaoxiao, come here right now and untie me!
He kept groaning loudly, clearly extremely angry.
But when he saw that the brat was actually pouring water on the charging phone, he was shocked.
After seeing the phone short-circuit and start to catch fire and smoke, they were even more terrified.
He finally understood that when he saw Zhao Xiaoyan earlier, the expression on her face wasn't shock, but extreme terror.
He was now terrified, writhing and struggling wildly just like his ex-wife.
Then, she looked at her dead daughter and frowned.
Under his incredulous gaze, the man picked up a stun gun and stabbed him without hesitation.
"snort----"
A strong electric current surged into the body, causing the muscles that were shocked to spasm and sting.
He groaned pitifully, his body trembling.
Before fainting, he still couldn't believe what he was seeing and kept repeating to himself.
This must be a nightmare!
Yes, it must be that damned girl who felt she died unjustly and invaded his dreams to take revenge on him.
This is all a dream! It's an illusion.
Then everything went black and I passed out.
Xiao Xiao then electrocuted Zhao Xiaoyan, and then tore off the tape from their bodies.
She's now experienced in using electric shocks on people and can control a person to faint within 3 to 5 minutes.
By this time, the phone was already a ball of fire, the battery hissing and spitting out orange-yellow flames.
The bed sheets were already on fire, and thick smoke filled the ceiling of the room.
Xiao Xiao quickly bent down, held her breath, left the room, and thoughtfully closed the door.
Within 3-5 minutes, the toxic fumes will fill the entire bedroom, enough for two people to inhale.
Xiao Xiao waited and waited until thick smoke appeared in the lobby. She quickly opened the door and ran into the stairwell.
He banged on the neighbor's door, and Grandma Zhao, who often gave him food, opened it.
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? Are you hungry? Grandma has some steamed sponge cake here, do you want some?"
"No, no---Grandma Zhao, fire---fire---fire..."
Xiao Xiao wasn't there to beg for food; she pointed behind her.
"what?"
Grandma Zhao asked, puzzled, then her nostrils twitched as she noticed a pungent odor in the air.
Who's burning something?
Could it be some mischievous kid who did it again?!
As she walked out, she saw smoke drifting out of the little girl's front door.
The pungent smell is coming from here.
The old lady panicked, quickly went to the door to take a look, and then screamed.
"Oh my god! Fire! Fire! Help!"
She screamed in the hallway, startling the neighbors, who all opened their doors.
Then quickly call 119, grab a washbasin and a bucket, and come over to put out the fire.
Anyone who knows how to use a fire extinguisher should quickly grab one from the hallway, but the bedroom was already ablaze, and the fire extinguisher was useless.
Everyone could only pour water, in basins or buckets, onto it.
Fire trucks arrived quickly and extinguished the fire. In the dark bedroom, firefighters found two bodies.
The police arrived, and so did the community members.
Xiao Xiao was temporarily taken home by Grandma Zhao. Fortunately, the fire was put out in time, and only Huang Xinbo's family was burned, without affecting the neighbors.
In the hallway, outside the police cordon, neighbors were excitedly discussing the thrilling scene that had just unfolded.
"How exactly did this fire start?"
"I heard from the firefighters that it seems to have been caused by the couple charging their phones by the bedside. They were burned beyond recognition! It's so tragic!"
"Oh my god, that scared me to death! I'll never charge my phone by my bedside again. That was terrifying!"
"Luckily it was during the day. If it had started at night, it would have affected many families."
"Yes! These two are sleeping so soundly in broad daylight."
At least one person was awakened and could run out!
"Yes! Now only this little girl is left, how pitiful!"
"What can we do? Anyway, that woman isn't his biological mother. It's fine for him to live with his biological mother."
"Hmph! I knew those two were scumbags a long time ago, what a bunch of trash!"
I've seen this little girl so hungry several times that she had to rummage through the trash cans downstairs to eat. It's truly heartbreaking to see.
"Yes, yes! The couple were worse than animals. It's good that they're dead; they got their just desserts."
......
Police examinations revealed that both deceased individuals suffered from malnutrition, thin subcutaneous fat layers, and fatty degeneration of the liver, among other issues.
The respiratory tract contains soot, charcoal dust, etc. The blood has a high carbon monoxide level. There is soft tissue bleeding in the neck, and fractures of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage.
The overall assessment is that he died of asphyxiation after inhaling toxic fumes.
When the police were trying to contact Xiaoxiao's family, they unexpectedly discovered a large number of videos of child abuse on Zhao Xiaoyan's phone.
Based on the injuries on Xiaoxiao's body, it was determined that Zhao Xiaoyan had engaged in child abuse.
Given that the suspect was dead, they simply collected evidence and added it to the case file.
In XX City, Zhu Chunlan, who was working in the supermarket warehouse, suddenly felt extremely sleepy. She couldn't help but lean on her desk and had a dream a moment later.
In her dream, one day she suddenly received a call from the police saying that her child had an accident and was in the hospital, and that she should come over immediately.
She hurriedly packed her things, asked for leave, and then took a car to the hospital.
At the hospital, she saw her daughter, covered in injuries, with tubes inserted, lying unconscious in the ICU.
The doctor said it was too late and advised him to prepare himself mentally.
The police said the child had been abused before her death, and only showed her a few photos of her daughter covered in injuries, which enraged her.
That's utterly inhuman; no human being could do such a thing.
She wanted to kill that vicious woman, kill Huang Xinbo, and make them pay for their crimes in blood, so they would suffer a terrible death.
But the police told her that the poisonous woman would be sentenced to death, while the man's negligence and dereliction of duty were not enough to warrant criminal charges.
She was even angrier, and the man had the audacity to ask her to issue a letter of forgiveness to his wife.
She wanted nothing more than to kill him, to kill that despicable couple.
I only hate that my own people are weak and alone, unable to vent their anger and retribution.
In the end, the wicked woman was sentenced to death, but the man went unpunished and even got married the following year.
God, you're really blind!
She spent the rest of her life in pain and regret.
She regretted countless times that she should have let him take the child away that day.
If only I had found my child sooner.
Ah---just thinking about this makes her want to go crazy.
Whoosh! Zhu Chunlan woke up from a nightmare, covered in sweat.
She gasped for breath, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead with both hands, feeling a sense of panic in her heart.
She glanced at the time in a daze; in that nightmare, her daughter's accident happened three months later.
Is this not real? Dreams are always the opposite of reality.
She kept comforting herself.
But she still felt terrible. The extreme pain and suffocating despair in her dream almost buried her.
No, she can't sit here and wait.
She's going; she's going to search for the place in her dreams.
She took out her phone and dialed the scumbag's number again, but as expected, she was still blocked.
This time, she wouldn't wait.
She had to go immediately.
She went directly to her supervisor to ask for leave, bought a ticket, and went to XX City.
When Huang Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, she was holding half a piece of pastry in her hand and sitting alone on a bench.
She instinctively curled up her small, thin body, fearfully looking around at everything.
She didn't know anyone here, and she didn't even know where this place was.
She sat there, frozen, not daring to move, when she heard a woman in front of the workbench shout defiantly:
"Officer, why should I apologize to him?"
She couldn't understand either. Taking advantage of the fact that these people weren't paying attention to her, she secretly left the bench behind, pressed herself against the wall, and slowly moved to the corner behind the bonsai tree.
She crouched cautiously in the corner, her back to the people in the hall, and secretly took a bite of the pastry in her hand.
Mmm! It's so delicious!
Tears welled up in her eyes.
She had never eaten anything so delicious.
She took two more bites, then reluctantly hid the rest in her pocket.
Then, like a startled rabbit, she shrank back, trying her best to avoid being noticed.
He carefully looked around at his surroundings, then curiously touched the clothes on his body.
These clothes aren't mine, and these shoes aren't mine either.
They all seem to be newly purchased.
Are they Dad and Aunt?
No, no, it's good that they don't attack us.
It's impossible for me to buy myself new clothes and shoes.
She remembered that in the last scene, because she ate slowly, the aunt hit her head hard with chopsticks, and it hurt so much!
Then, he fainted.
She was unconscious for a very long time, and in her dazed state, she seemed to hear her mother's voice.
She was so happy!
She finally waited for her mother; her mother finally came to pick her up.
She tried to open her eyes, but she couldn't. She was so angry!
Why? Why not let her see her mother?
She longed to see her mother!
I long to be held in my mother's arms, and I long to hear her say that I am her little baby.
I am not, as my aunt said, a worthless child that my mother didn't want.
Thinking back to this, Huang Xiaoxiao squatted in the corner and wiped away her tears.
She misses her mother so much!
Mom, when are you coming to pick me up?
At this moment, Zhu Chunlan and the police officers handling the case got out of the car outside the hall.
"That's the situation, Ms. Zhu."
Besides physical malnutrition and minor injuries, the most important issue for the child, according to a psychologist's diagnosis, is that the child has suffered psychological trauma.
I hope you can spend more time with your child in the future, and make sure to give your child a strong sense of security.
"Okay, okay, thank you, comrade."
Zhu Chunlan appeared both dazed and somewhat agitated.
My daughter is alright, my daughter is alright!
She was so excited she almost cried.
"Xiao Wang, where's the child?"
"Ah--it was just here a moment ago."
The police quickly began searching the lobby.
Zhu Chunlan was frantic, her expression flustered and anxious, her voice trembling with tears as she called out in all directions:
"Little one, little one, my baby, Mommy's here, Mommy's here, where are you?"
Hiding behind the bonsai tree, Huang Xiaoxiao thought she was hallucinating. She murmured to herself:
"Mommy, Mommy, I can hear Mommy's voice."
She turned around sharply and, through the gaps in the leaves, immediately spotted Zhu Chunlan, who looked flustered and extremely anxious.
"Mother---!"
Huang Xiaoxiao shouted and stood up from behind the bonsai tree, tears streaming down her face.
"Little one---my baby, sob sob---"
Zhu Chunlan rushed over, scooped her daughter into her arms, stroked her little head, and kissed the child's face repeatedly.
She said while crying:
"It's all Mom's fault, it's all Mom's fault. I shouldn't have let that beast take you away, boohoo!"
"Mom--Mom, I miss you so much, I miss you so much."
I keep dreaming about you, Mom. Please don't leave me again.
"Okay, okay, Mom won't do it again, she won't do it again."
The police officers in the lobby breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the mother and daughter embrace, kissing and crying.
