Chapter 1373: 1372 Gang Boss’s Daughter
“Why?” Tan Rou asked, “Could it be that their backgrounds are very strong?”
Unexpectedly, the person in charge actually nodded. He said, “The girl with the gray hair comes from a significant background. Her dad is the boss of the biggest local gang. Even the police don’t dare to mess with the gang, so we can’t do anything about those kids.”
“Haven’t they been doing this sort of thing for a while now? Haven’t you thought of a way to deal with them?” Tan Rou asked.
“We have,” the person in charge replied. “But they don’t just barge in forcibly. Every time they come in, they enter through the ticket checkpoint, and then stay in the airport for several days before leaving. When they get thirsty or hungry, they rob others for money. With the money, they buy something to eat. If they don’t get money, they keep going hungry.”
Tan Rou’s mouth twitched. She really couldn’t understand what those girls were thinking. At their age, wasn’t there anything better to do? Why did they insist on robbing at the airport? Thinking of their appearance, Tan Rou had a guess—perhaps these young girls were going through a rebellious phase, seeking some thrill.
She thought of Liang Lu. Liang Lu had also been a little thug once, but she was very principled. She would never engage in robbery. Most of the time, she took action to help others.
“What about the victims of their robberies?” Tan Rou asked. “Won’t they complain about you?”
The person in charge, while flipping through his phone, replied with a smile, “Mostly, we offer the victims a substantial compensation. Once they receive the money, they don’t bother us anymore.”
“That’s quite the crude method,” Tan Rou commented.
.comThe person in charge looked up, his eyes barely visible, and looked at Tan Rou. “I don’t want to waste your time either, so please make your demands. If you want money, we can compensate you too.”
Tan Rou wasn’t lacking money, so what did she need the compensation for? But now, there indeed was a condition she wanted to discuss with the person in charge.
“If you can agree to one thing, I can forgo the compensation,” Tan Rou said.
The person in charge’s eyes opened a slit. “State your condition.”
Tan Rou said, “I met a little boy at your airport. He is the son of my friend’s sister. I want you to take him away and provide me with a proof for it.”
The person in charge’s eyes fully opened, and he said to Tan Rou with a smile, “I can provide that proof, but you’ll have to do another favor for me.”
Tan Rou didn’t want to make a losing deal. She said, “One thing in exchange for another. If you’re asking me to do you another favor, that makes it two favors. Why should I help you?”
The person in charge said, “Being a victim of a robbery only entitles you to compensation, not a bargaining chip for other matters. Anyway, I have plenty of time; you can take your time and reply when you’ve considered it.”
For the first time since her rebirth, Tan Rou felt such a great loss. The key issue was that she had no way to refuse the person in charge’s request. If she did not agree, then she wouldn’t be able to take Aji along on the plane or get Aji out.
“Let’s first talk about your matter,” Tan Rou sighed, then sat down on the chair beside, “If it’s too difficult, then I won’t do it. After all, he isn’t my child. I don’t need to put in so much effort for him.”
“I need you to take care of the trouble that little brat is causing us,” the person in charge said. “The surveillance footage of your fight with them has been sent to me. Looking at your performance, you are quite powerful indeed.”
“Are you joking with me?” Tan Rou scoffed. “I am the victim here. Not only do you not help me, the victim, get justice, but you also want me to deal with the perpetrator. Do you think this request is reasonable?”
The person in charge shook his head slightly, squinted, and chuckled, “The request is very unreasonable, but I believe in your ability. You can definitely handle them, especially since you just did.”
Even if she couldn’t subdue those female thugs, it wouldn’t really matter; the airport wouldn’t suffer much loss. In any case, things couldn’t get worse than they already were.
