Catching a Thief

“Brother! Are you alright?” Chang Hao ran fast, rushing into the crowd like a small cannonball, standing in front of Chang Le, looking up nervously to observe his brother’s expression, for fear that his brother was suffering and being wronged.

Chang Le was happy to see him here, his eyes brightened slightly, and he shook his head to show that he was fine.

Chang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the crowd, and finally frowned and asked a man in his early forties, “Uncle Village Chief, what happened?”

Grandpa Chang thinks you’re quite a decent lad for reading on ho lo lo novels.

His brother can’t speak, even if he is not at fault, he can’t explain clearly, and others can’t understand his gestures, so he will suffer.

Chang Hao had met the Village Chief a few times before, and now he was extremely nervous when he saw him surrounding his brother.

At this moment, Grandpa Chang also arrived, squeezed into the crowd, stood in front of the two grandsons, blocked them faintly, and asked the people around: “What happened? What are you doing all around my grandchild?”

Seeing the grandfather and grandson coming, someone said, “Hey, Chang Hao and his grandfather are here, we can figure it out.”

Chang Hao’s uncle, Wen Li, was also present. He still remembered how the two brothers Chang Le and Chang Hao treated him yesterday. Seeing that Chang Le was surrounded by people, he didn’t plan to step forward to help. He folded his arms and watched the crowd from outside the circle.

At this time, seeing the old man and Chang Hao coming, he immediately pushed through the crowd into the middle, and said to the old man, “Dad, you have come. I don’t know what Chang Le has done again.”

Grandpa Chang glared at Wen Li and said coldly, “What can Xiaole do? You can’t just wait for him to be in trouble.”

Chang Hao also glanced at his uncle in disgust, then looked at the village chief.

The village chief coughed lightly, stretched out his hand and pressed it in the air to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, “Stop talking, everyone, be quiet!”

The village chief has spoken, and the villagers all fell silent and looked at him.

The village chief looked at the grandfather and grandson and said, “Uncle Chang, it’s like this. When we came to the fields in the afternoon, we saw Brother Le holding a man from another village, pressing him down to the ground and not letting him go. You guys know, Brother Le can’t speak, and we don’t know the reason. The man kept scolding Brother Le, saying that he was being held down for no reason. We have been arguing back and forth, we were waiting for you to come and ask Brother Le what happened.”

Chang Le was very introverted because of his health since he was a child, and he didn’t communicate with the villagers often. That is, after the death of his parents, he had to carry the burden of the family, forcing himself to deal with outsiders, and gradually became more outgoing.

Grandpa Chang thinks you’re quite a decent lad for reading on ho lo lo novels.

Although so many years have passed, no one in the village can understand his gestures except for his grandfather and younger brother. At this moment, the villagers also counted on the grandfather and grandson to translate.

When the village chief was talking, Yu Qingze finally approached, squeezed into the crowd, and stood beside Grandpa Chang.

Hearing the village chief’s words, Chang Hao, Grandpa Chang, and Yu Qingze discovered that Chang Le was grabbing a man’s wrist with one hand and holding the other so tightly that he couldn’t move.

The man was dark and tall, but he had a pair of inverted triangular eyes, and the clothes in front of him were covered in mud. When he saw the mute’s relatives coming over, he immediately said harsh words.

“I said it was this dumb man who was going crazy. I didn’t do anything, I was just passing this way, and I was caught by him! My wrist is about to be snapped! Please let him let me go! Otherwise, I will deal with you directly. You are finished!”

That man was very tall, a head taller than Chang Le, and a big circle bigger in size, but he couldn’t break free from Chang Le’s hand.

Some villagers around said: “It’s impossible for Brother Le to hold you for no reason. You must have done something to offend him!”

“Yes, Brother Le never causes trouble! Come on, what have you done!”

Someone next to him said angrily: “Don’t be too eager to say, what if it’s Brother Le who did something?”

Some villagers immediately retorted: “Huzi, you can’t say that because your chickens pecked the vegetables grown by Brother Le’s family and then got driven out. We can all see brother Le’s character.”

“What do you mean? Why are speaking like that? How can I be such a stingy person!”

“That we don’t know.”

“…”

Some villagers started quarreling, and the triangular-eyed man over there was stunned.

“What? Brother?” When the triangular-eyed man heard that it was a ger who caught him, he glared at Chang Le as if he had seen a ghost. Is a ger so strong?

Grandpa Chang thinks you’re quite a decent lad for reading on ho lo lo novels.

Immediately, he rolled his eyes and scolded Chang Le: “You all see, a ger holding onto a man and won’t let go, isn’t it shameful? Ah! Hurry up and let me go!”

Chang Le glanced at him, his hands were silently exerting strength, and the onlookers heard the man shout, “Ouch, ouch, it’s about to break, it’s about to break”.

Everyone laughed. Brother Le is born with divine power, and this man is so daring messing with him.

“Come on, say it! What dirty things did you do to offend Brother Le!”

The man screamed strangely: “What could I be doing? Which eye did you see what I was doing? You didn’t even see it, you just opened your mouth and sprayed shit!”

The villager was also violent. When he was scolded, he rushed up and wanted to kick the triangular-eyed man, but the man next to him quickly stopped him.

“Okay, don’t make any noise for now!” The village chief roared and became quiet. The village chief looked at Chang Le and said, “Brother Le, tell me what’s going on.”

A circle of people watched Chang Le, waiting for him to tell the story.

Chang Le glanced at his right hand. If he wanted to say something clearly, he had to gesture with both hands, but he was afraid that if he let go of his hand, the person would run away and someone would grab him.

“I’ll hold on to him, you tell Xiaohao.” Yu Qingze walked to Chang Le, grabbed the man’s hand with one hand, and said to Chang Le.

Chang Le glanced at Yu Qingze suspiciously.

Yu Qingze laughed, he was underestimated by Chang Le. So, he handed the wooden crutch to Chang Hao to help him hold it, grabbed the man’s other wrist, clasped the man’s hand behind his back, and easily got the man to his knees.

The man let out an ouch, his body involuntarily knelt down, and wanted to stand up, but his shoulders were pressed and his wrists were tightly clasped, he couldn’t stand up whatsoever.

“What are you doing! I haven’t done anything, and there is no law here!” the man shouted.

“Be honest!” Yu Qingze raised his injured leg and pressed his knee against the man’s back, holding the man down firmly.

“Good skills!” The villagers cheered when they saw Yu Qingze’s skillful moves.

Chang Le also stared at it with wide eyes, with an incredulous look on his face. He just used brute force to restrain this man, but Yu Qingze just pulled and pressed, and he easily got it done!

Awesome!

“Wow! Big Brother Yu, you even know kung fu!” Chang Hao looked at Yu Qingze with admiration in his eyes!

Not only is his cooking delicious, but he also knows kung fu! Big Brother Yu is amazing!

The thoughts of the two brothers are in sync; Chang Le was thinking the same too. He secretly admired Yu Qingze’s two hands. (T/N: LOL)

Seeing that the man was not moving, Yu Qingze raised his eyes and smiled at Chang Le, and said, “Brother Le, you can let go.”

Chang Le blushed slightly, he was doubting others, and now…
