"Huh?" The child was stunned for a moment. With a whole piece of candy wrapped in his mouth, his mouth was bulging, like a little hamster. It was so cute.
"Don't be afraid, we'll be fine." Bai Canxing comforted the children and then untied the ropes on them one by one. Judging from the sky, it had been about three hours since she lost consciousness. Although the surroundings were quiet, they shouldn't be far from the capital.
Bai Canxing stood up carefully and checked the surrounding environment, confirming that they were locked in a basement with entrances and exits on the ceiling, so they obviously couldn't go out casually.
She put her consciousness into the supermarket to see if there was anything that could solve the current dilemma. Finally, she found anesthetics in the pharmacy, determined the dosage according to the instructions, and took the children into the supermarket employee lounge after knocking them unconscious. She had cleared out the room except for a bed and locked the door. If she was wrong and the children woke up early, she was not afraid of them seeing anything.
I put on a mask and took out a sharp machete from the supermarket. I set fire to a cardboard box at the exit to create a lot of smoke. (I don’t know if my dear readers have played this as children. The kind where you tear open a cardboard box, wrap it in a circle, and burn it with fire, creating a lot of smoke, but it doesn’t burn.)
The thick smoke naturally alerted the traffickers. After a while, the entrance was opened, but the smoke was so thick that the traffickers hesitated before sending one of them down to inspect. The quality of the goods was excellent, and there were also the little ones specifically requested, so there couldn't be any problems.
"How is Monkey San'er?" After a while, the person above asked.
"The smoke is too thick, but..." The person coming down didn't finish his reply. Bai Canxing took advantage of his height and completed her first kill. Although she was shaking all over at this time, she immediately hid behind the stairs and waited for the people above to come down or leave.
"Monkey Three, Monkey Three?"
"Stop yelling." It looked like there was more than one person up there. Bai Canxing brought out a few more cardboard boxes, and the smoke thickened. He didn't dare show his head. He pulled out a remote-controlled children's toy plane, attached a camera, and floated out. When the camera turned on, it glowed red.
Ancient people were superstitious and did all kinds of bad things. Although they didn't believe in anything normally, the situation was weird now. The large amount of thick smoke came strangely, and the sudden appearance of the red light scared a group of people and they ran away in panic.
Bai Canxing hurried out and found the ancient smoke on the body of Monkey San'er, who she had stabbed. The man was not dead yet, and Bai Canxing did not have the courage to finish him off, so she could only find a rope to tie him up. Just as she finished doing this, she heard footsteps at the door.
"Boss, there's a ghost, there really is a ghost." It turned out that the few people who ran away were chased back by their boss.
"I think it's just a trick. If there really is a ghost, he/she has to lie down." The boss was full of violence, with a ferocious look on his face, a fat body and a lot of flesh.
Bai Canxing was hiding at the door. When he saw a group of people going in, he lit the sleeping pills that Hou Saner had gotten. Mixed with the thick smoke, the group of people didn't pay attention for a moment and were actually knocked down.
After trapping a group of people tightly, Bai Canxing released the remote-controlled plane and explored the surrounding environment under the cover of night. He discovered that this was actually a private house, probably still in the provincial capital.
The two houses nearby were also deserted. They looked abandoned for a long time, so Bai Canxing simply set the houses on fire, moved the group to the door, released the still anesthetized children, and stayed with them himself.
These children all looked wealthy or noble, and they must have alerted the authorities. With so much smoke and fire, it must have attracted people. He carefully cleared away everything that didn't belong to this era before daring to sit down.
"Brother, Ling Feng is here."
"Ayao, it's my Ayao."
"Young Master." It looked like they were friendly forces. The families of several children had come over.
"Canxing!" Han Suying was the first to run to Bai Canxing and pull her over for examination.
"Mom, I'm fine." Bai Canxing then pretended to have just woken up from being knocked unconscious, and watched his mother come back.
"You scared me to death, child! If anything happens to you, how will I live?" Han Suying burst into tears. She was terrified when she discovered Bai Canxing was missing from the Lantern Festival. She searched everywhere and reported it to the police, only to discover that many other families had lost their children. She searched for him endlessly.
"Brother, it was my sister who saved me." A soft voice sounded, and the children woke up. They were all scared out of their wits. Only the child who had eaten the White Rabbit at the beginning looked at Bai Canxing with sparkling eyes.
"No, no, I don't know who saved us. I just hugged the children together and then I passed out. When I woke up, I was here." Bai Canxing said quickly. She was just an ordinary little farm girl. How could she possibly defeat such a group of human traffickers!
"It's my sister. My sister gave me sweet candies. She also untied the ropes for us. And, I don't know what else happened." The child was stuck for a moment, because he was knocked down by Bai Canxing's anesthetic afterwards.
"That's right. I just untied the ropes for the children and then I fainted again." Bai Canxing said as he nodded.
"It's sweet, I want some too." The children, unaware they'd been separated from their families for so long, thought they'd just gotten some sleep and weren't frightened. But now, hearing the sweetness of candy, they started to crave it. Bai Canxing did have a small bag, always filled with snacks, and he generously took some out to feed the children.
"Well, it's different." said the child who had eaten White Rabbit, but it was still delicious.
“······” Bai Canxing didn’t want to pay attention to him anymore.
"Thank you, Miss, for taking care of me." At this time, a young man came over. What a handsome young man he was. Although he was not very old, he had an imposing manner that made people want to listen to him unconsciously.
"No, no, I didn't do anything." Bai Canxing waved her hand quickly. She didn't know that this wave exposed her. It was the first time in her life that she hurt someone. She didn't pay any attention and blood splashed on her sleeves.
Everyone was busy comforting the child, and the funeral arrangements were taken care of by others. Bai Canxing and the others were taken to the government office for questioning, and then they were arranged to rest at the post station. Bai Canxing took a hot bath and changed into brand new clothes. He didn't know who sent them, but he just accepted them.
After all this, she was truly exhausted. She'd been having nightmares all night. Born in peacetime, the most she could do was swat a mosquito or a moth; she couldn't even watch pigs and chickens being slaughtered from afar. All night long, she'd repeatedly felt the sensation of stabbing that person with a knife. Even though she couldn't actually see anything clearly, the touch, the sticky feeling, was truly unbearable.
"Doctor, how is my daughter?" After noon, Bai Canxing still hadn't left the house, so Han Suying came up to see him. She found that Bai Canxing was hot all over and her cheeks were abnormally red, so she quickly asked a doctor to come over.
