"Your hands are all over our bags, do you take us for fools? We'll believe whatever you say?"
Su Xiao Si, thinking of how his family's hard-earned money was almost taken by others, became even more impolite.
He let go of Old Niu's hand and kicked the still-quibbling Old Niu, sending him to the ground.
Then, Su Xiao Si ungracefully pinned Old Niu down and pinched him fiercely several times.
Although pinching wasn't a good way for grown men to fight, it was undeniably the most torturous.
Pinching a bit of flesh hurt far more than a slap.
He wanted this person, who only thought of petty theft, to feel it today.
Listening to Old Niu's constant wails, Su Xiao Si felt incredibly satisfied.
The lookout, a胖子 (fatty), stared blankly at the scene, wondering how things had turned out this way.
After watching for a while, he finally realized that three of his companions had been caught, and he should slip away.
However, before he could even move his feet, he was grabbed.
"Where do you think you're going? Abandoning your buddies?"
It was Chi Yi Yuan speaking, his half-smile under the moonlight making the 胖子 feel utterly uneasy.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the three thugs were frantically calculating whether they had a chance of winning if they fought head-on against this group.
The three exchanged glances and immediately resorted to dirty tricks, preparing to defeat their opponents in one move and escape.
But the Su family children had been trained by Chen Zi An, so these small moves couldn't escape their notice.
Therefore, the opponents' movements were destined to be thwarted.
The group had originally thought that the only one capable of fighting among the Su family was the third son, as the rest were just little kids.
Who knew that they couldn't even defeat a few little kids? Their arms were held by the little ones, and they couldn't move at all.
At this point, they were completely panicked.
"Let go!" the flat-headed man said with a feigned ferocity, "A strong dragon doesn't suppress a local snake. No matter how good you are at fighting, this is our brothers' territory!"
Hearing the flat-headed man's words, Su Xiao Tian almost burst out laughing.
This person actually dared to say that.
He didn't even consider that they were on a train. Even if they had accomplices, could they catch up to the train to help at this moment?
Su Xiao Tian was actually a bit frustrated. She had been itching to fight, but her brothers had acted too quickly, and she hadn't even managed to grab anyone.
These guys were really unprofessional, only three or four of them dared to come up. It would have been much better if there were seven or eight, or even ten!
If there were more people, she wouldn't have been stuck in the back without a chance to even move.
Su Xiao Tian wondered if she could discuss it with her brothers and get a chance.
Just now, she had keenly sensed that the gazes those people cast at her were not right.
Those people were probably not only thinking about how to get their family's goods but also harboring ill intentions towards her and Sister Xiao Mei.
"Second Brother, how about I give it a try?" Su Xiao Tian actually asked.
"Sit there quietly!" Su Ci Liang said sternly to Su Xiao Tian.
Did they need their sister to deal with a few scoundrels?
Hearing Su Xiao Tian's eagerness, the people who were being held tightly actually thought, "If only this little girl would make a move, we could definitely escape."
But Su Ci Liang not only refused Su Xiao Tian heartlessly but also spoke to them with a smile.
"What if I don't let go? Are you sure this is still your territory?"
Actually, Su Ci Liang was quite pleased at this moment. He rarely got into fights, and this was his first time.
It felt quite novel.
No wonder Xiao Tian liked to fight; this feeling was truly good.
Holding the person firmly in his grip, leaving them no room to fight back.
This was not the same satisfaction as painting!
Su Ci Liang held the person's arm tightly, and with his other hand, he grabbed at the person's weak spot.
Then, a heart-wrenching scream was heard. If one didn't know better, they would think the person was being tortured.
The Su family children were not to be trifled with. They pinched the flesh of their captors without holding back.
Their blows were truly fierce, and the captured men wailed incessantly.
The surrounding passengers were confused. They were just being held, so why were these men screaming so miserably?
Naturally, Su Xiao Tian had felt the unkind gazes from those men, and the other Su family members must have felt it too. The suffering they were enduring now was punishment.
These men cried and begged the other passengers for help, but in such matters, it was best to stay out of it.
Looking at both sides, neither seemed easy to provoke, so why bother?
Indeed, being from the underworld, they could do anything.
After confirming that escape was impossible, the men threw all pretense of dignity out the window.
"Oh no, they're beating someone to death! Quickly, help us find the railway police."
"Help! We're being robbed by bandits on the train!"
"Wuwuwu, these people are inhumane! In this new society, how can such people exist?"
The men shouted and cried, their misery palpable.
The commotion finally alerted the railway police.
The railway police were on patrol and were about to take a break when they heard the commotion and had to come investigate.
Upon seeing the railway police, the thugs, who had been suffering, became as enthusiastic as seeing their own fathers.
"Comrades police, you're finally here! If you hadn't come, we would have been tortured to death by these bandits!"
The railway police glanced at the Su family group, whose faces were still tender.
These people looked like refined scholars, so how could they be bandits?
If anyone looked like bandits, it was the men being held.
Huo Si Nian, who hadn't participated in the fight, nimbly took out his work ID and showed it to the railway police.
"Comrades police, I am a university professor. I am taking my students to Rongcheng, and these individuals attempted to steal our luggage just now."
While a university professor might not have had much status a few years ago, the college entrance examinations had resumed for several years, and the status of university professors had long since improved.
The railway police looked at Huo Si Nian, then at the group of children.
"Who are you people? Do you have work units?"
Since one party had a work unit, the railway police directly asked the other party.
How could a few thugs have work units?
After stammering a few words, they were taken away by the railway police.
As for the Su family group, Huo Si Nian was the one who ultimately followed the railway police, and Chi Yi Yuan, not wanting Huo Si Nian to go alone, insisted on accompanying him.
Su Lao San thought that Professor Huo was not greatly involved in this matter and had suffered misfortune for no reason, so he quickly said that he also wanted to go.
"Third Uncle, you need to look after them," Huo Si Nian said hurriedly.
"Third Father, let me go and see!" Su Shou Wen said.
The railway police, escorting the thugs, were followed by Huo Si Nian, Chi Yi Yuan, and Su Shou Wen as they left.
The passengers in the carriage were about to believe the thugs' words. Seeing the railway police take away the beaten individuals, they were relieved that they hadn't rashly spoken up to help the villains, otherwise, wouldn't they have become accomplices by now?
