Chapter 245: Rescued (Page 1/2)

After much deliberation, Chen Baomei finally decided to help.

Wu Hui's behavior was indeed bad and annoying, but after all, he was still a living person, and she had watched him grow up bit by bit.

Chen Baomei was afraid that something might really happen to Wu Hui in the future, and she would not be able to get over this.

It was just a missing person notice posted on her account, so there was no loss for her.

Just consider it a favor and give me some peace of mind.

Chen Baomei posted a video looking for someone as soon as she got home, and then she didn't care about it anymore.

After seeing the missing person video, Shen Qin immediately called Chen Baomei to thank her for her help.

Chen Baomei still responded to him indifferently.

Niu Niu started school, and Chen Baomei stayed in the capital for two more days before returning to Yangcheng.

She was the only one at home, and it felt a lot quieter.

Remembering that she had promised Niuniu's roommate to make snacks, Chen Baomei immediately put this matter on the agenda.

Chen Baomei went to the market to buy ingredients, set up the camera and started working.

Considering that there are many students like Niu Niu, Chen Baomei prepared large portions and a wide variety of dishes.

I bought ten kilograms of raw beef to make cold beef.

It took me two days of hard work to prepare these snacks.

All snacks are divided into small packages and vacuum-packed without any additives, and can be stored for at least half a month.

After finishing her work, Chen Baomei sent the express delivery and sent the express delivery information to Niu Niu.

There were many kind-hearted people behind the video who provided clues to Chen Baomei. Chen Baomei simply summarized them and sent them to Shen Qin, asking him to verify them himself.

To avoid trouble, Chen Baomei simply posted Shen Qin's contact information so that everyone could contact him directly if they had any clues.

Because Chen Baomei has a large number of fans, the news that Wu Hui was cheated spread quite quickly.

Even some official media and their own media contacted Chen Baomei to verify and report this matter.

As the situation spread, many people paid attention to the issue of young people being cheated when looking for jobs. Some officials made special reports on this and issued a series of anti-fraud guides.

The missing person video sent by Chen Baomei was really useful. Not long after, Shen Qin received a useful clue.

Someone had seen Wu Hui in the neighboring province and even had a photo of Wu Hui attached.

Wu Hui's fat figure was very obvious in the crowd.

Shen Qin quickly contacted the other party and rushed over with the police.

Niu Niu was not at home, and there was no one to share the delicious meals cooked by Chen Baomei.

The snack video she recently posted was very popular, so Chen Baomei temporarily adjusted the direction of her videos and focused on snack topics.

Chen Baomei has made a video plan for half a year, combining her own creations with inspiration she found on the Internet.

It was enough for her to take pictures until Niu Niu came back from vacation.

Niu Niu received a large box of snacks sent by Chen Baomei. She was happy but also worried that it would tire Chen Baomei out.

She called Chen Baomei and said, "Grandma, why did you prepare so many things? Just make something for your own good. Don't overwork yourself."

Chen Baomei didn't care. "Grandma, you're not tired at all. Have you shared it with your classmates? How does it taste?"

"Yes, my roommates all like it very much. They even said they would send you some local specialties to try."

Chen Baomei smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite? Tell them to stop making such a fuss. Grandma has enough to eat."

The kids in their dormitory are quite knowledgeable about reciprocity.

"They insisted on giving it to me, and I couldn't persuade them."

After chatting with Chen Baomei for a while, Niu Niu asked if there was any news about Wu Hui.

Chen Baomei didn't pay much attention to it, but since no one told her, there probably wasn't any good news.

A few days later, Chen Baomei got the news that Wu Hui had been rescued.

As soon as he rescued Wu Hui, Shen Qin called Chen Baomei.

Wu Hui was not taken abroad, but was deceived into a pyramid scheme den in the neighboring province.

According to the information provided by the informant, the entire pyramid scheme den was dismantled and forty or fifty deceived young people were rescued.

Dozens of them were crowded into a room of less than 100 square meters.

Eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are all done in there, and men and women sleep on mixed bunk beds.

There are people watching me when I go out every day.

After realizing he had been cheated, Wu Hui ran away three times but was caught each time.

The last time he was beaten badly, someone even cut his face with a knife, leaving a scar.

Wu Hui was frightened by the beating and completely gave up the idea of escaping.

The food in the den was very poor. When Wu Hui was rescued, his 200-pound body had shrunk to just over 100 pounds.

In just over two months, the man was tortured to the point of losing over 100 pounds. Chen Baomei was shocked to hear this.

How bad must life be for a 200-pound fat man to lose half his weight?

Some media followed and reported the incident throughout. Chen Baomei saw Wu Hui, who was so thin that his bones were visible, in the news and almost didn't recognize him.

Not only was he as thin as a bamboo pole, but his face was also frighteningly pale.

He's like a patient who can't get out of bed all year round and has to stay in the room, with a pale face.

He looked like someone who had suffered a great crime.

After rushing back from the neighboring province, Shen Qin brought Wu Hui to thank Chen Baomei.

Chen Baomei refused directly. She didn't even meet Wu Hui and asked the father and son to go back.

Wu Hui, who had just returned from the pyramid scheme den, no longer talked about making a lot of money. He was completely depressed.

Seeing that Chen Baomei didn't want to see them, he didn't say anything sarcastic.

The father and son returned home in silence.

When they got home, they saw Wu's mother waiting at their door.

When she saw Wu Hui, Wu's mother walked straight up to him and slapped him twice in the face.

"You bastard, these two slaps are for that kick you gave me earlier!"

Wu Hui was beaten so hard that he stood there in a daze, pursing his lips and saying nothing.

After slapping Wu Hui, his mother shook her hand and asked, "Where are my jewelry? Give it back to me immediately."

"Sold it."

Wu Hui said in a muffled voice.

"And the money?"

Mother Wu stood on tiptoe and grabbed Wu Hui by the collar. "Where did the money go? I have so many jewellery, it's worth at least 70,000 or 80,000!"

Shen Qin pulled Wu's mother away.

"Auntie, all the money has been stolen and I can't get it back."

Once you join a pyramid scheme, you will lose a lot of money, let alone keep your property.

“All gone?!”

Mother Wu couldn't believe that all her things were gone.

"You bastard, you black-hearted bastard! I only have a few gold jewels left, and you've taken them all."

Wu's mother was in a state of collapse. She grabbed Wu Hui's arms, slapped him and wailed.

Wu Hui had a blank expression on his face. He was annoyed by his mother's nagging and pushed her away.

"Are you annoying? It's just some jewelry. I'll compensate you."

Wu's mother shrieked back, "Compensation? What are you going to do with it? You don't even have a decent job, how are you going to do it?"

Wu Hui glanced at Shen Qin out of the corner of his eye, and when he saw that he didn't say anything, his face couldn't help but tense up.

"I'll find a job and pay you back, so stop crying!"

Mother Wu stopped crying.

"Write me an IOU. If you don't pay me back, I'll have the police arrest you. You committed burglary and you're going to go to jail!"

Wu Hui gritted his teeth and said, "Write it. Don't worry, I won't owe you a penny!"
