Zhou Yanfang and Qin Hua felt a little guilty when they saw Yunbei was exhausted. It was all because they were too slow, otherwise Yunbei wouldn't be so tired.
Yunbei leaned on Si Nanzhao's shoulder and fell asleep quickly.
At this time, the city-wide arrest operation officially began.
Except for Si Nanzhao and Zhou Yanfang who came to find Yunbei, the others, either in teams of ten or in groups of five, carried out arrest operations throughout the county according to the information provided by Yunbei.
Suddenly, the entire county was in a state of panic, with everyone feeling threatened. Houses closed their doors, and the streets were deserted.
Sister Li, who was previously at the guesthouse, also encountered people who wanted to arrest her.
Seeing the police officers coming, she didn't realize the seriousness of the situation yet. She smiled and said, "You police officers look unfamiliar. Are you here on business from somewhere else?"
"Are you Li Qing?"
"Yes, I am Li Qing. Are you comrades here to see me?" Li Qing asked, but he felt uneasy in his heart.
She suddenly thought of the missing Aunt Chen. She had suspected that something had happened to her before, but she had no evidence. In addition, their people were everywhere in the county, so she didn't take it seriously and thought that she might have gone out for something.
But now, she realized the seriousness of the matter.
She wanted to run, but she couldn't take a step.
"Li Qing, you are under arrest on suspicion of trafficking women and children." A police comrade said as he took out handcuffs.
When Li Qing heard the words "arrested", his legs went limp and he sat down on the ground.
At this moment, there was only one thought in her mind, that is, it was over, her life was over.
Several police officers looked at her coldly, walked up to her and put handcuffs on her hands.
However, after catching Li Qing, they did not leave in a hurry, but waited for another person to come.
Because in the entire guesthouse, Li Qing was not the only one who was an accomplice of the kidnappers.
Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long, and the man didn't get the news and escape. He still arrived at the guesthouse at the usual time and was caught by the police who were waiting there.
This time, there were quite a few people sent from above, plus those transferred from the army. Soon, the situation in the entire county was under control.
Anyone who participated in the trafficking of women and children, or acted as a protector for the traffickers, was arrested.
Si Nanzhao and Zhou Yanfang were sitting in the county's Public Security Bureau. They listened to their subordinates' reports and nodded with satisfaction.
When the last group of people returned after completing their mission, Zhou Yanfang looked at Si Nanzhao and said, "Nanzhao, should we go to Gujia Village?"
"Okay, we'll go there right away." Si Nanzhao nodded. Thinking of Yunbei, who was very tired and still sleeping, he decided to let her have a good rest and not take her with him.
Unexpectedly, just as they were about to leave, Yunbei woke up.
She chased them to the door and looked at Si Nanzhao and the others as they got into the car and prepared to leave, her face full of resentment.
"Are you planning to abandon me?"
"No, no, how could that be possible?" Si Nanzhao got out of the car with a guilty conscience, walked quickly to Yunbei, and said, "I just saw you sleeping and wanted you to sleep a little longer, so I didn't call you. Besides, everyone over there was knocked unconscious by you, so it doesn't matter whether you go or not."
"No, I have to go. I promised those girls that I would rescue them. So, I have to go and bring them out myself and set them free."
"Okay, if you want to go, then go ahead." Si Nanzhao didn't try to stop her. He knew Yunbei would still go even if he tried to stop her. And then, she might just go alone.
For her safety, Si Nanzhao thought it would be better to follow the main force.
So Yunbei also got on the car and went to Gujia Village together.
Chen Cheng and Zhao Jun had been guarding the entrance to Gujia Village. Although most of the day had passed and there was still no movement in the village, the two did not dare to let their guard down.
When they were thirsty, they drank the spring water flowing down from the mountain. When they were hungry, they ate cold steamed buns. They dared not leave the village for a moment, fearing that if they left, the villagers would run away.
Although they knew the chances of this happening were minimal, they were still extremely cautious. They didn't dare gamble, let alone be careless.
Time passed little by little, and the two of them talked while staring at the village.
"Chen Cheng, do you think the captain and the others have arrived?"
Chen Cheng looked up at the sky and said with a smile, "Don't you see what time it is? The captain and his men must have arrived. They might already be catching kidnappers in the city."
"I don't know when the captain and the others will arrive. If they don't come soon, we'll all starve."
"It should be soon. As long as we arrest all the kidnappers in the county, the head of the group will definitely come."
"It would be great if the captain and the others could bring some food when they come. These cold steamed buns are terrible, and there's nothing to eat with them."
"Just bear with it for a while. Once everyone in this village is arrested, are you still worried about not having enough food to eat?"
As they were talking, they heard the sound of a car and instantly became happy.
Zhao Jun even climbed to the top of the tree to see what was going on.
"Chen Cheng, the regiment commander and his men are here." The familiar car made Zhao Jun very excited. "Speak of the devil, and here you are!"
"Since the captain and the others are here, why don't you come down quickly and follow them into the village to take a look."
"I'll be right down." Before Zhao Jun finished his words, he had already slid down the tree.
Not long after he came down, Si Nanzhao and his men arrived. Seeing Chen Cheng and Zhao Jun guarding the village entrance, Si Nanzhao stepped forward and said, "Chen Cheng, Zhao Jun, you've worked hard. How's it going? Is there anything going on?"
The two replied, "It's not hard," and then said, "We've been waiting outside and haven't seen anyone come out."
"Is anyone going in?"
“No.”
"Okay, I understand. Do you want to continue guarding here, or come with us in to take a look?"
"Captain, let us go in with you." As they spoke, they quickly got into the car.
The car drove towards the village. Despite the loud noise, no one came out, which made Zhou Yanfang and Qin Hua look at Yunbei again.
There is no need to guess, it must be Yunbei's work again.
Yunbei met their gazes and smiled.
Everything is implied.
Sure enough, when everyone entered the village, they found that all the villagers were sleeping.
"Do we need to wake them up?" Yunbei asked with a smile.
Si Nanzhao thought for a moment, then looked at the large square in front of the ancestral hall and said, "Bring them all over to the ancestral hall, and then wake them up together."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Afterwards, Si Nanzhao ordered his men to move all the villagers to the big square. After everyone was gathered, Yunbei took action and woke them up.
When the villagers opened their eyes, they found themselves lying on the ground, surrounded by PLA soldiers and police. They were all stunned.
