Born as a space beast, Shi Chu possessed a strong sense of self-preservation and was inherently selfish. She revelled in luxury, indulging in fine food and clothing. She rejected phrases like “su...
Chapter 1252: Marriage Recovered Through Fraud (18)
"Don't be afraid, auntie promises you that I will find your brother back." Shi Chu said in a calm voice.
The police station was not far from the street. Knowing that a child was missing, all the police officers in the station were dispatched quickly. Shi Chu hurriedly told Du Xiaoling: "Xiaoling, you wait for auntie at the police station. Auntie will bring your brother back. Don't leave the police station, understand?"
After saying that, she handed Du Xiaoling to a female police officer and rushed out quickly. While she was recalling the map of the entire town in her mind, she was carefully checking various traces around her.
At this time, five or six minutes had passed since Du Xiaoshi went missing. The police immediately sent people to guard all the intersections. It was very likely that the human traffickers who abducted Du Xiaoshi did not have time to escape from the town.
What Shi Chu needs to do now is to find a remote and sparsely populated place in the town. The human traffickers have kidnapped the child and there is no time to send the child away, so An must find a place to hide the child first.
She quickly chose a direction and ran in that direction like the wind without waiting for others to react.
She ran for several minutes, passing through several narrow alleys and came to an even darker alley. Only the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled lived here. The houses were collapsed and dilapidated. Unless it was too hot and there was nowhere else to go, basically no one would be willing to live here.
However, this place is sparsely populated, so it is a place where people can hide.
Shi Chu kicked open a rotten and moldy door, entered the house and quickly searched it, but found no trace of anyone, so she started searching the next house.
She searched every house in the alley but still couldn't find any trace of the human traffickers. It seemed that she had come to the wrong place.
Shi Chu left quickly and went to find another abandoned lumberyard. To avoid alerting the enemy, she lowered her footsteps as she approached and quietly sneaked into the abandoned lumberyard...
But to her disappointment, the place was still completely silent. Not to mention people, there were not even a single mouse.
Shi Chu had no choice but to leave again, quickly searching his mind for the next possible location.
At this time, more than ten minutes had passed since Du Xiaoshi went missing. If they couldn't find him, their hope would become increasingly slim.
Shi Chu secretly hated herself for letting her guard down, thinking that if she didn't do the bad things that the original owner did, Du Xiaoshi would not be abducted again. However, she didn't expect that the plot of the original world would suddenly give her such a big blow.
She took a few deep breaths and forced herself to calm down.
We arrived at the next possible location, which was a residential area near the station. There were blue brick buildings, mud brick houses, and even many sheds and thatched houses. The people living there were a mixed crowd of people from all walks of life. Because it was close to the station, there were more thieves.
Shi Chu walked in quietly. She did not rush to search, but found a corner, closed her eyes, began to calm down, and listened carefully to the sounds around her.
Her five senses were already very sensitive, and now she had focused the internal strength she had cultivated over this period of time on her ears, so she could hear more sounds and hear from farther away.
She quickly ignored irrelevant sounds and listened carefully to suspicious sounds...
When Du Xiaoshi was covered with his mouth by a pair of big hands and taken away from Shi Chu, he didn't react at all. When he was forcibly pressed into a stranger's arms and his mouth, hands and feet were tightly covered, he struggled in vain, and then he realized belatedly that he might have been abducted.
At that time, it was not big news that children were abducted by human traffickers. Even though Du Xiaoshi was only six years old, he had heard from adults that most abducted children did not have a good ending. In addition to never being able to meet their parents and family, they would be sold to various remote places, treated as slaves, and worked hard. If they were disobedient, they would be beaten and scolded, and they would go hungry. Their ending was very tragic...
Therefore, when Du Xiaoshi knew that he might have encountered the legendary human traffickers, he panicked immediately, tears suddenly flowed out, and he struggled desperately, trying to let people around him see that something was wrong with him.
But he was still a child and could not resist the strength of adults. His struggle did not attract anyone's attention. So he tried his best to shout, but his mouth was covered. There were many people on the street and all kinds of noisy noises. Outsiders could not hear his whimpering at all. Even if they heard it, they would just think it was a naughty child throwing a tantrum at an adult.
Du Xiaoshi struggled for a long time. He had never been so desperate. He almost hysterically shouted "Dad", "Save me", and even "Auntie" (Shi Chu). However, his desperate cries for help were covered by a strong hand and could not be heard at all.
"You little bastard! If you scream again, I'll cut off your tongue!" The human trafficker who carried Du Xiaoshi away lowered his voice to warn him.
Du Xiaoshi was so frightened that his whole body became stiff, tears and snot flowed out, he dared not shout anymore, and could only sob.
Just as he was feeling desperate and his days seemed like years, the traffickers finally took him to a house.
"Caught another kid? Not bad, not bad..." a strange voice said with joy.
Then the trafficker who was holding Du Xiaoshi put him down, warned him not to scream, and said to his accomplice: "This kid has delicate skin and tender flesh, is young, and is easy to raise. He can be sold for a good price, so don't hurt him."
When Du Xiaoshi heard his words, his face turned pale, his whole body was shaking, and his tears never stopped. After he got down from the ground, he saw several children of different ages in the corner of the room. Some were seven or eight years old, and the youngest was only one or two years old. They were either tied up and gagged, or unconscious.
When Du Xiaoshi saw this, he became even more frightened, knowing that he would be tied up and gagged like them, and then transported to another place to be sold.
He was unwilling to never see his family again, and the desire to escape allowed him to temporarily overcome his fear. So he waited for one of the traffickers to find a rope to tie him up, and when they were not paying attention, he violently pushed away the person who brought him back, and then ran quickly to the door.
He was still a child and only knew to run, but he was not thoughtful enough when considering the problem, and he didn't know that there was a huge gap between adults and children in terms of strength and body size.
He thought he had hit the trafficker with great force, but in fact he only caused the trafficker to stagger.
He thought he was running very fast, but just after he ran a few meters, the human traffickers rushed out and grabbed him by the collar.
"Help! Help!" Du Xiaoshi shouted desperately and struggled with his hands and feet.
