Rapid Trial

In the following days, Xiao Cha left early and returned late every day, using her identity to conveniently investigate the Yahang’s affairs.

Human trafficking is also a business, and costs must be considered.

Under normal circumstances, human traffickers would not want to keep their “goods” at hand for too long and would certainly try to sell them as quickly as possible.

But what was strange was that Xiao Cha could never find out where the children were being sold to.

Keep in mind that the Yahang was sweeping up all the beggars in Jinmen; one would think there should be some trace to follow.

Yet whether it was factories or brothels, any place with a high demand for child labor, no signs were found.

Days passed by, and Xiao Cha grew more and more anxious.

One day, after returning home, she couldn’t help expressing her frustration:

“It’s so strange!

The Yahang took away so many children, where could they possibly sell them to?

I’ve checked with my father’s old connections, and there’s not a whisper of activity…”

The more Xiao Cha spoke, the uglier her expression became: “They couldn’t have been sold to the mines, could they?”

Wanqing passed her a bowl of mung bean soup and comforted her, “Don’t worry, have you asked someone at the docks?

They might be shipped overseas.”

“I’ve asked; there’s nothing.

Besides, children simply can’t survive the sea voyage; they only want able-bodied adults.”

After gulping down the mung bean soup, Xiao Cha’s face showed difficulty as she guiltily said to Lu Li, “Investigating has cost you 50 silver coins…”

“It’s fine, just use it.

However, I have a suggestion.”

Lu Li said, “Since people can’t be found everywhere, why not just kidnap a member of the Yahang and interrogate them?”

Hearing this, Xiao Cha was taken aback and sized up Lu Li from head to toe.

She hadn’t expected such a refined man to be so bold and daring!

But then she realized that this method was feasible!

Thinking of the little figures with topknots, Xiao Cha hesitated for only a few seconds before making up her mind: “Alright!

Let’s do it!”

~~~~~~~~~~

Following that, Xiao Cha tossed several sacks of herbs onto a handcart and pulled it out the door.

Meanwhile, Lu Li took out two M1911s and those two sprayers, starting to check and maintain them.

He had a premonition that a slaughter was about to take place, and this time, the enemy was no ordinary foe.

Yet, Lu Li felt a vague sense of…

excitement!

He didn’t know why he felt this way, for he wasn’t a bloodthirsty and brutal person…

but he didn’t mind tearing apart something masquerading as human.

Stroking the cold murderous weapons, a star-like glint flashed and disappeared in Lu Li’s eyes.

At the same time, in a dark alley next to a gambling house.

Xiao Cha’s fist whipped out like a lash, precisely hitting the carotid artery of a green-clothed big man.

The blood supply to his brain briefly stopped, and the man rolled his eyes and passed out.

Xiao Cha threw him onto the handcart, covered him with several sacks of herbs, and pulled the cart back to the clinic without anyone noticing.

Being a police officer, she naturally left no trace, but her heart was still pounding with nervousness.

After all, she was just a 17-year-old girl; she might have seen a lot but hadn’t been through much.

At that moment, Xiao Cha took a deep breath, dragged the “bargaining chip” to the woodshed, and tied his hands and feet securely.

Then she splashed a bucket of cold water over him, and the big man immediately woke up.

As he took in his surroundings and saw the familiar female patrol officer before him, he immediately understood what had happened.

“How dare you!

You dare to break the law knowingly!”

These human traffickers were tough enough to torture children and had strong mental resilience; he now spoke with confident defiance:

“Female Patrol Officer Luo, don’t be mistaken!

If Manager Yi realizes I’m gone, you’ll be the first one he comes for!”

Normally, Xiao Cha should have resorted to tough measures to make this man face reality.

But things are often easier said than done.

Being too young and never having taken a life, she suddenly froze.

[It turns out she’s just a fledgling~]

Big man quietly exhaled, becoming even more brazen, “Just let me go, there’s still room for this to be resolved…”

But he stopped mid-sentence as he saw Lu Li slowly walk in.

Big man tensed up, thinking to himself that this was bad news!

Using his keen perception honed through years of brawls, he could tell at a glance that this man had taken lives—more than just one!

As he tensed up, he heard Lu Li gently ask, “What is your name?”

“Grandfather’s the leader of Yahang Gang—Zhao Jin…

Ah!!”

Before he could finish, Lu Li pulled out an M9 pistol and fired one shot into each of his legs.

Blood gushed out, and Zhao Jin squirmed in pain, his mouth wide open as he screamed.

Lu Li raised his hand and fired another shot, the bullet grazing along the corner of his mouth and leaving a scar reminiscent of a clown’s wound.

Pained to the point of being unable to open his mouth wide or make much noise, Zhao Jin could only whimper softly.

In mere three seconds after their encounter, Zhao Jin had become a bloodied figure.

Xiao Cha said with a trembling voice, “We haven’t even started the questioning, he could die…”

“It doesn’t matter, we can always tie up another one,” Lu Li said indifferently, raising his gun again.

“Stop, stop!”

Faced with the smoking barrel of the gun, Zhao Jin quickly collapsed, spilling the beans immediately:

“Those kids were maimed by Manager Yi and taken to the lease to earn foreign currency!

It’s not my fault, it was all done by that Yi surname!”

Maiming children to make them beggars with various deformities and disabilities was a common tactic used by human traffickers.

Xiao Cha was completely panicked and asked urgently,

“There’s a six or seven-year-old girl with a topknot, clean and well-kept, where is she!”

Zhao Jin gasped in pain, “Outside the city, in Guo Village…

Manager Yi said she was useful to keep.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Cha felt a moment of relief.

But then, without warning, Lu Li said, “Thank you for the information.”

As soon as his words fell, he shot Zhao Jin in the skull.

The man fell to the ground, dead with a bewildered expression on his face.

It took Xiao Cha a while to react, “You, you just killed him like that!”

“We’ve got enough information, and in my eyes, he wasn’t a person.”

Lu Li turned and walked away from the woodshed, while Xiao Cha stood there in silence for a long time.

Previously, she had seen Lu Li as calm, considerate, generous…

but now, she realized she had never really understood this man!

~~~~~~~~~~

When Lu Li emerged from the woodshed, Wanqing had just finished preparing dinner.

Although the girl couldn’t see, she was well aware of everything and asked softly, “Eating at home?”

Lu Li replied, “You’ve already made it, so let’s eat before we go.”

He sat at the table, and Wanqing felt around to serve him a bowl of millet rice.

Halfway through the quiet meal, Xiao Cha burst in.

The girl had no appetite whatsoever and bit her lip, “I want to go check out Guo Village, see if we can rescue Tong Shao.”

Lu Li swallowed the food in his mouth and said, “That works well, I’ll go with you.

I don’t know the way.”

“You’re going too?” Xiao Cha was somewhat surprised,

“Guo Village is where the human traffickers hold captives; it’s definitely heavily guarded.

Without any movement techniques, how will you get in?”

Lu Li chuckled, “We can prepare two plans.

Is Guo Village outside the city?

My leg isn’t convenient, so I’ll have to trouble you to take me there in a handcart.”

At this moment, his eyes began to gleam again, the iris as splendid as collapsing universes.

Xiao Cha opened her mouth, wanting to say something but hesitated, and eventually, she nodded.
