Qian Chunhua, who had been single all her life, suddenly time-traveled—bringing along a space full ...
"Where are the people?" Captain Zhang asked loudly as he entered the door.
Village Chief Wang quickly took Captain Zhang to a corner of the lobby, where the two kidnappers were lying on the ground, tied up.
Constable Zhang frowned and looked at the two men. Although they were dressed simply, they looked like ordinary villagers. How could they be kidnappers?
"Where is the abducted child?" Captain Zhang continued to ask.
Qian Chunhua appeared in the lobby holding Dong Cong and Qingfeng's hand.
When she heard the sound just now, she was busy putting shoes on the two children.
"The child is here." Qian Chunhua said as he pulled Dong Cong out.
Dong Cong turned around and hugged Qian Chunhua's neck tightly, fearing that Qian Chunhua would give him to the evil-looking man in front of him.
Captain Zhang did not reach out to take the child. He looked the child up and down with a scrutinizing gaze. He saw that the child was wearing luxurious fur coat, a gold velvet hat, and thick-soled boots.
He looks more like a kid from a wealthy family, and not just ordinary rich.
Captain Zhang nodded and believed what Village Chief Wang said.
"Kid, do you know where you live? What does your father do?" Captain Zhang asked.
Dong Cong glanced at Captain Zhang, tightly shut his mouth and said nothing, but he held Qian Chunhua's neck even tighter with his arms.
Qian Chunhua answered only himself, "I only know that his family name is Dong and he lives in Yongning Prefecture."
Captain Zhang asked, "How did you know?"
Qian Chunhua was annoyed by the tone of the question, as if he was interrogating a criminal. Qian Chunhua still answered, "This child's family came from the capital to Yongning Prefecture a few years ago and had a meal in my shop. We talked before. I know his grandmother and mother."
Qian Chunhua felt dissatisfied with Captain Zhang, so he was more cautious and did not tell anyone that the child's father was the richest man.
Captain Zhang nodded to show that he was satisfied.
He waved his hand, pointed at the two kidnappers, and ordered his subordinates, "Take them away and bring them to the government office."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Village Chief Wang and Qian Chunhua and said, "You guys come with us, to the county government office."
Qian Chunhua knew that they should have a certain case handling process just like in her previous life, so she nodded without any hesitation and said she was willing to cooperate with the investigation.
But Qian's mother didn't agree. She stood behind her daughter nervously and tugged at Qian Chunhua's clothes.
Qian Chunhua said, "No, aunt, we are just cooperating to get the job done."
Qian Chunhua didn't say more. She didn't know the specific process either, for fear of saying too much and making too many mistakes.
Only Qingfeng looked at his mother with eager eyes, and he was worried that his mother would be snatched away by this bad boy.
Qian Chunhua squatted down and touched Qingfeng's head, "Son, I'm going to the county to help my brother find his family. I'll come back after I find them."
Qingfeng listened and nodded, understanding that as long as he didn't snatch his mother away from him.
Captain Zhang and his fellow captains rode on horses, while Qian Chunhua took the child and sat in the carriage of the couple. The couple were still tied up and thrown into the carriage.
Village chief Wang could only sit in the front and drive the carriage. There was no other way. The couple were both unconscious, and between him and Qian Chunhua, only he could drive the carriage.
After arriving at the county government office, County Magistrate Zhou had been waiting for a long time.
When the couple arrived at the county government office and were splashed with cold water to wake them up, they only admitted that they picked up the child, but did not admit that they had stolen or kidnapped the child.
County Magistrate Zhou only ordered his men to temporarily imprison the two men and make plans after finding the child's relatives.
Nowadays, refugees and bandits are rampant outside, and the county government is already short-staffed. County Magistrate Zhou is very distressed and doesn't know how to deal with this.
Qian Chunhua didn't tell Captain Zhang about Zhou Cong's life experience because she was unhappy with Captain Zhang's attitude, but Qian Chunhua would not hide it from County Magistrate Zhou.
Taking advantage of the time when County Magistrate Zhou was free, Qian Chunhua brought the child and came to County Magistrate Zhou.
