The elder brother glanced at Xu Ying with some confusion: "Why are you asking this?"

Xu Ying rolled her eyes and said, "I'm asking this to make money. Look at how plump you all are after eating, you must have made a lot of money.

Why is this money only for you guys to earn? Can't I earn it?"

The eldest brother didn't expect her to be so arrogant. He raised his eyebrows and looked fierce: "We dare to kill people. Do you dare?"

Xu Ying was so scared that she almost fell down. When the eldest brother saw her reaction, he immediately laughed out loud and lost all his guard.

Although she is just a little girl, she has such a big tone.

"You want to marry an official, right? Wait until I finish dealing with these people, and then I will take you there." The eldest brother said with a smile.

Xu Ying's eyes were filled with fear: "Are you going to sell all these people to my aunt's village?"

The eldest brother shook his head: "How is it possible? There are more than a dozen people in that room. They can't finish the food in Liushangou. There are many in the nearby mountain villages.

The one who has no shortage of wives will be given to the one who pays the most."

Xu Ying secretly took note of it in her heart. It seemed that not only Liushangou, but all the nearby villages were in cahoots with the gang. No wonder these girls couldn't escape.

This group of people are really crazy.

"Aren't you afraid that the police will arrest you?" Xu Ying asked tentatively.

With just one sentence, the man's face changed instantly. Xu Ying thought she had angered him, but unexpectedly, the man laughed arrogantly.

“Everything requires evidence, and the police have no evidence to arrest us.

There is no village nearby that has not been involved in human trafficking. If they give us away, they will be doomed as well.

Besides, every time there are only a few police officers, we can kill them directly."

Xu Ying frowned. These human traffickers were so arrogant.

Is there no one investigating the death of a police officer?

Or has the police also become involved in this corruption?

If this is true, then Huo Chen is in danger.

Xu Ying felt a little uneasy.

——Inside the county town.

Huo Chen went straight to the police to report the case. The police officer who received him frowned when he heard that it was a case of Liushangou human traffickers.

"Comrade, please wait a moment. I will go and inform our leader to see how to handle this matter." The man said and ran away.

Huo Chen did frown. Normally, upon hearing about such a serious case, the police would be dispatched to investigate immediately. Why did he go to the leader to apply for permission?

Not long after, the man ran out with several police officers.

Huo Chen frowned as he looked at the few people: "Are these few people enough?"

The police officer's face suddenly changed: "Why not? Are you questioning our ability?"

Huo Chen didn't say anything. He and a few others left the police station, but he became more alert. The police officers who normally go out on patrol are all strictly trained, but the ones walking in front obviously didn't look like they were well trained.

And he is such a nice person, there is definitely something wrong.

Several people went to Liushangou, but the men didn't even go in to search. They just asked a few questions and then left.

How could Huo Chen not understand what was going on? He didn't expect that these police officers would be so bold and presumptuous.

Xu Ying had been waiting for news about Huo Chen at Liu Dashan's house. No police came to investigate in Liu Shangou the whole afternoon, so she realized that the police were unreliable.

She didn't expect that this group of police officers were so unreliable. She had originally agreed with Huo Chen that she would stay to protect the safety of these people and to restrain them at the same time.

The police can also go to the homes of these human traffickers and arrest them directly. In this way, even if the human traffickers are caught, the captured hostages will not be in danger.

But no one would have expected that this group of police officers were actually in cahoots with the human traffickers.

After Huo Chen left, the trafficker obviously realized that it was not safe. He was furious and wanted to know who had informed on him.

"Tell me if you were the one who informed on me?" The man kicked Liu Dashan and knocked him to the ground.

Liu Dashan endured the pain and begged for mercy: "Brother, it's not me. If it were me, how could I bring my wife and children back?"

The man was furious. Could it be that the two people he sent out betrayed him? He asked them to keep an eye on Liu Dashan. Now that Liu Dashan has returned, these two people have not returned yet.

The man was so angry that he immediately told his brothers to move to another place.

This place is no longer safe.

Even if they know the police, it is better for them to evacuate just to be on the safe side.

So a large group of people evacuated from Liushangou village to the nearby village.

Xu Ying was also among them. When she saw the familiar figure among the abducted people, she was stunned for a moment.

Gu Fuzhu is here too.

In that case, things will be much easier.

She walked up to Gu Fuzhu, blinked her eyes, and whispered, "Don't be afraid."

If she remembered correctly, her father had said before that the leader who presented him the award seemed to be named Gu.

Gu Fuying said before that Gu Fuzhu’s father was a new leader.

During that period, there was only one new county official.

With the answer, Xu Ying felt relieved instantly. After enduring till night, she sneaked out.

Huo Chen was at the entrance of Liushangou Village as agreed. When he saw Xu Ying coming out, his eyes lit up: "I can take my friends and catch the human traffickers directly."

Xu Ying shook her head. It was against the rules to do so. The human traffickers and the police were in cahoots with each other. Huo Chen would be in too dangerous if this happened.

"Go find Gu Fuying and ask her to find Gu Fuzhu's father. His daughter is here.

Remember to tell him about the police incident and let her father handle it. I can’t be out for too long, so I’ll go back first. Be careful.”

After saying this, Xu Ying turned and left.

Huo Chen's eyes darkened a little and he quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Early the next morning, a large number of police officers rushed into the village and surrounded several surrounding villages.

The trafficker's face turned green when he heard this. He was about to run away, but he fainted due to a dizzy spell: "You."

Soon more people fell down.

Xu Ying was extremely satisfied watching this scene. She took out the small fireworks that Huo Chen bought for her, lit them up, and the fireworks shot up into the sky with a bang.

A large number of police officers rushed directly into the village.

When the village captain saw the large number of police officers, he panicked instantly and immediately asked someone to inform the police and go find the human traffickers.

But I didn't expect that when I got there, I saw people lying all over the room.

I immediately understood what was going on.

All the traffickers were caught and the abducted people were rescued.

Father Gu looked at Xu Ying with gratitude on his face: "Yingying, thank you for saving my daughter."

Before he came, his friends reminded him that Yu County was a bit chaotic, and that poor mountains and bad waters produced unruly people, but he didn't expect that the officials would help him.

He must investigate this matter thoroughly.

Gu Fuzhu looked at Xu Ying with gratitude on her face. She thought her life was over. If her parents couldn't find her, she would be sold to someone else as a wife. But she didn't expect Xu Ying to save her.

Xu Ying waved her hand: "Uncle Gu, there are still many abducted women in the village. How do you plan to deal with them?"
