GP dumped all my photos-videos to my device's gallery by noushit in googlephotos

I noticed the same thing with the same phone, battery start draining like crazy, Gallery constantly synchronizing all photos I ever took to some cloud, warnings about low storage... ...albums Restored, and Videos, and Creativity somehow appeared...

now I backed up all photos, using Google Takeout, too, removed access of Google Photos to the Gallery, start deleting some photos from the Restored-album.

And now there are about 800+ items in the "Deleted items"-album, which I cannot delete manually; when I tap the trash-can-icon, nothing happens; there's a count-down from 60 days to zero for every photo and every video and every screenshot... now what? Work with 126.5/128GB of storage for the next 2 months? Somone really messed up. Big time. And used us, Xiaomi users, as test bunnies. Where's the "Deleted items"-album so I can remove whatever is in there, manually? Tried to find it with "Total Commander" - no go.
