Chang Yin and his men had already laid an ambush around the courtyard. They didn't know how many people were inside and dared not make a move rashly.

Tang Shengkai and the others were extremely anxious, and finally he knocked directly on the gate of the courtyard.

As soon as the courtyard gate opened, the people inside immediately stood up. The man in black swept his gaze over them and asked, "Which of you brought back the tail?"

"Impossible. We were extremely careful when we came back; there's no way anyone could have known."

Woman C agreed with Woman A, "That's right. We took a lot of detours outside and only came back after confirming that there was no one behind us. It's impossible for us to bring back any followers."

The man in black glanced at the two of them, his eyes cold. "Only the two of you went out today. Who else could it be but you?"

Woman C still didn't believe it, saying, "Maybe it's someone who lives nearby?"

The man in black pulled out a pistol. "Don't get your hopes up. We've been knocking for so long without a sound. We've definitely been spotted. Grab your weapons."

Woman C frowned and looked at Woman A. "Could there be something wrong with that little girl? That shouldn't be the case. She's pale and thin, and doesn't look like a child from a wealthy family."

Woman A had already gripped her pistol. "Let's go, we'll find out once we get out there, no matter what."

Go to that room and keep an eye on those children. Don't let them make a sound.

After making arrangements, the man in black and woman A quietly opened the door and headed towards the main gate, while woman C went into the room where the child was being held.

Tang Yue heard a knock on the door outside the courtyard. She saw that it was her father, and she could also hear the conversation of the group of people.

These men all carried guns, and she had already witnessed their power. She couldn't let them shoot and injure her father or the soldiers. However, because she and her parents were waiting for the train, she didn't bring her pistol with her.

If they used spiritual power to attack, it would be impossible to explain themselves in front of everyone. At this moment, Woman C was about to enter their room.

She knew this was her chance. She slowly turned around, her hands still on the door. "People came to rescue me, but these human traffickers all have guns. Do you want to take a gamble?"

Xu Zhenfei, the boy who first showed affection for Tang Yue, had now stood up. He looked at Tang Yue and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"If they start fighting later, someone will definitely come to watch us. We'll find a way to steal that man's gun then."

Xu Zhenfei felt that what she said was risky; they were too young to do it.

But now this may be their only hope of escaping. Just like the little girl in front of them said, human traffickers have guns, and the people outside may not be a match for them.

If they manage to steal a gun, maybe the situation will turn around. Ultimately, if they fail, they'll be sold out. But what if they win the gamble?

"Ha! What a pipe dream! You little brats think you can steal a gun? Naïve!"

The oldest girl, sitting in the far corner, didn't bother to speak; she was the one who had just been the most indifferent to everything in front of her.

"Yao Fengxian, don't you want to leave?"

"Hmph, you think you can escape with a bunch of idiots? Dream on!"

Yao Fengxian turned her head to the side and ignored them.

The other two boys stood up and walked up to Tang Yue. "How can I help you?"

Actually, Tang Yue didn't need their help, but it would be too conspicuous for her to act alone. "When that person comes in, the two of you stand on either side, and we'll close the door as soon as she comes in."

Then Tang Yue pointed at Wang Qingli and said, "You bump into her."

"that's all?"

Xu Zhenfei thought it was too simple, Wang Qingli also thought it was impossible to succeed, and Yao Fengxian on the side was even more disdainful and sneer.

Tang Yue nodded affirmatively. They didn't have any more time to think, as footsteps could be heard outside the door.

Woman C, holding a gun, stepped out of the door and cautiously looked around. Seeing no gun barrels, she quickly darted to the door of Tang Yue's room, looking outside. She took off the unlocked lock with one hand, then cautiously pushed the door open and went inside.

Her gaze remained fixed on the commotion in the yard; she hadn't paid attention to what the children were doing when she entered. As soon as she stepped inside, Xu Zhenfei and Guo Qingshan quickly closed the door. Just as Woman C was about to react, Wang Qingli forcefully shoved her into the room.

The woman, C, was caught off guard and bumped into the door. Taking advantage of this moment, Tang Yue jumped up, snatched the gun from her hand, and held it directly to the woman's waist.

Woman C looked extremely unwell; she never expected to be defeated by a bunch of brats.

"Don't move, or I'll shoot. Anyway, I'm not a good shot."

Woman C felt the force of the gun barrel against her waist and dared not move.

Woman A heard the commotion and asked, "Second Sister, what's wrong?"

Tang Yue pressed the gun barrel against the barrel of her hand even harder.

"fine."

The woman, C, spoke with a trembling voice; she had never had a gun pointed at her like that before.

"Don't move, or the gun might go off. Don't shoot, and I'll let you go in a bit," Woman C tried her best to calm the group of kids.

After Tang Shengkai knocked on the door, Chang Yin and the others judged the number of people inside based on the reactions inside. From the shadows, Chang Yin only saw three people come out. There were also two gun barrels pointing outwards in the window and doorway of the room they had just come from. Apart from these, they didn't know how many people there were in total.

Based on past experience, it is likely that there are still people inside who have not yet taken action; it is estimated that there are seven or eight people.

When Woman C opened the door, she could vaguely see a child inside. She frowned; the figure looked quite large, so it seemed this group had stolen quite a few children.

The man in black, guns raised in both hands, leaned against the door and asked warily, "Who is it?"
