"Don't worry, brother, I'm really fine." Shen Xiaoxiao said softly with a slight smile. Although her voice was not loud, it conveyed a reassuring power.

She took a deep breath and continued, "I was so worried when I saw you suddenly faint. But I calmed down quickly,"

"I thought that if I also fainted, the human traffickers might not do anything to me. So I pretended to faint, and sure enough, they didn't make things too difficult for me."

Shen Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, as if recalling the scene just now, and then continued, "I think we've been taken to a human traffickers' hideout. The mine they mentioned earlier, I guess it's the location of the human traffickers' headquarters."

"Brother, should we pull off something big?" Shen Xiaoxiao asked in a low voice, her face full of excitement.

Looking at his younger sister's expression, Shen Xiaochuan immediately knew that she must have come up with some strange idea again.

He sighed helplessly and asked, "Little sister, what exactly do you want to do?"

Shen Xiaoxiao chuckled, revealing two adorable tiger teeth, and then began to preach in a serious tone: "Hehe! Since we've run into this, we definitely can't just ignore it. Besides, you're a soldier, brother, it would be even more unreasonable for you to ignore it!"

Shen Xiaochuan rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that this girl really knew how to make excuses for herself.

“I will definitely take care of it, but you absolutely cannot, it’s too dangerous,” Shen Xiaochuan said decisively. He didn’t want his sister to be in danger.

However, before Shen Xiaochuan could finish speaking, Shen Xiaoxiao stood up as if she hadn't heard him and tiptoed to the door.

She reached out and tried the doorknob, only to find that the door was locked from the inside. So she turned around and walked to the window.

Upon seeing this, Shen Xiaochuan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly called out, "Little sister, don't do anything rash!"

But it was too late. Shen Xiaoxiao easily pushed open the window, and it wasn't even sealed shut! With a little force, the window creaked open.

Shen Xiaochuan watched this scene in surprise, his eyes lighting up.

He quickly went over, pushed the window wider, and then peered out.

Outside the window, a continuous mountain range stretched as far as the eye could see.

"Come here, little sister, let me carry you out first," Shen Xiaochuan said softly to his sister.

As he spoke, he carefully reached out his hands, preparing to pick up his younger sister.

However, just as he was about to pick up the small, heavy object...

Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke up, "Brother, you're not planning to let me run away alone, are you? What will you do if I run away? People will immediately guess that you're not running away because you have something to gain. Brother, please let me stay! I can protect myself, and I can definitely help you in a critical moment."

Shen Xiaoxiao's soft voice revealed a hint of anxiety and unease. She tightly gripped her brother's clothes, as if afraid that he would let her go.

Looking at his sister's expectant eyes, Shen Xiaochuan couldn't help but feel a little wavering.

But he quickly came to his senses and realized that the situation was extremely dangerous and he absolutely could not let his sister take the risk.

"Little sister, stop fooling around. This is no joke. I can't let you stay here." Shen Xiaochuan's tone was still gentle, but it had become more resolute.

Shen Xiaoxiao was clearly not expected her brother to be so resolute. Her eyes immediately reddened, and tears welled up in them.

"Brother, how can you be so heartless? I don't want to leave you..." Shen Xiaoxiao's voice was choked with sobs, making everyone's heart ache.

However, this time, Shen Xiaochuan displayed unprecedented decisiveness and resolve.

Without the slightest hesitation, he said, "Little sister, listen to me, see if you can call the police and we'll catch them all."

She knew that her older brother was very stubborn, and once he made a decision, it was almost impossible to change it.

After waiting for Shen Xiaoxiao to walk away, Shen Xiaochuan turned around and strode confidently toward Sister Hua's house.

Shen Xiaoxiao knew she couldn't change her brother's decision, so she could only silently watch his departing figure.

A bad feeling crept into her heart. "No, I have to stay and help," Shen Xiaoxiao thought, and immediately ran to follow Shen Xiaochuan.

I saw Shen Xiaochuan, like a nimble cat, quietly climb over the low wall and then tiptoe to a house.

He stopped and listened quietly to what was happening inside. Sure enough, he heard a thunderous snoring sound, which made him breathe a slight sigh of relief.

Upon discovering that the door was not locked, Shen Xiaochuan felt a sense of doubt, but he still carefully reached out and slowly pushed open the dilapidated door.

With a creak, the door made a sound.

Fortunately, the people inside did not seem to be awakened by the sudden noise and were still fast asleep.

Shen Xiaochuan tiptoed into the room, but just as he stepped inside, he heard soft footsteps behind him.

He didn't need to turn around to know that it must have been his troublesome younger sister, Shen Xiaoxiao, who had followed him in.

Sure enough, Shen Xiaoxiao followed closely behind Shen Xiaochuan like a cat and entered the room.

Shen Xiaochuan shook his head helplessly.

Shen Xiaoxiao walked up to Shen Xiaochuan with a fawning smile on her face, and mouthed to him, "Brother, watch me."

After saying that, she walked straight to the man who was still snoring, took out a thin silver needle from her bosom, and without hesitation, stuck it into the man's sleeping acupoint.

“Big brother, you can come over now. Even if you slap him twice, he won’t wake up now,” Shen Xiaoxiao said with a smug look, seemingly quite proud of her special skill.

Shen Xiaochuan looked at his sister with suspicion, finding her words hard to believe. After all, he had never imagined that his sister would have such methods.

However, when he saw with his own eyes that the man really had no reaction after being pricked with an injection, the shock he felt was indescribable.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Xiaochuan decided to step forward and give it a try.

He walked up to the man, raised his hand, and slapped the man hard across the face.

Surprisingly, just as Shen Xiaochuan's sister had said, the man did not react at all, and even his snoring did not stop.

Seeing this, Shen Xiaoxiao smiled smugly. She took out a rope from her spatial storage, handed it to Shen Xiaochuan, and said, "Brother, tie him up."

Without much thought, Shen Xiaochuan took the rope and quickly and skillfully tied the man up tightly, ensuring he couldn't break free.

They then did the same thing again, tying up the others.
