Chapter 43 The Secret of Paner Village
Lu Chuan replied with a "good" response. Just as the rain outside had stopped, he led his team members to Paner Village along the road Shen Yijin had mentioned.
The Schnauzer was running in the front and, smelling its owner's scent again, it wagged its tail wildly but managed to refrain from barking out.
It knew that it could not alarm the villagers of Paner Village at this time.
Paner Village seems to be a poor village at first glance, but when Lu Chuan was looking for the family with the largest yard, he discovered that every house in the village was newly renovated, and the houses were deliberately made to look old, and the village was full of a sense of incongruity everywhere.
The Schnauzer led the way, and the group soon found the house where the crescent moon was.
But when they went to the basement to rescue people, they encountered new problems.
The cellar was in the pigsty. Once Lu Chuan and others approached, the pigs in the pigsty became restless and squealed in fear.
If the pigs scream loudly, the villagers sleeping in the house may be woken up.
"Captain Lu, how about I go?" The relatively petite female police officer asked Lu Chuan in a low voice, "The people imprisoned in the cellar are all women. They see people going into the cellar every day, so they may have gotten used to it."
Lu Chuan hesitated for a few seconds, still not reassured: "Pigs are very strong, I'm worried about you going alone. I'd better go with you."
The Schnauzer slowly came over dragging the wooden barrel, and patted Lu Chuan's thigh with his paw, signaling him to pick up the barrel.
Lu Chuan glanced at the wooden barrel and found that it contained sweet potato leaves, beans and other things.
Lu Chuan guessed that this should be the feed used by the villagers to feed pigs.
He carried the barrel toward the pigsty and motioned for the policewoman to follow.
Without being told, the Schnauzer had already gone into the pigsty and was standing near the cellar waiting.
Lu Chuan poured all the feed in the wooden barrel into the trough. After smelling the aroma of the food, the pigs, which had been restless at first, calmed down and crowded around the trough to grab their midnight snack.
Lu Chuan and the female police officer took the opportunity to climb into the pigpen and go down to the underground to rescue people.
There were many women lying in the cellar, all of them unconscious, their hands and feet tied together with ropes, and their mouths were stuffed tightly with rags.
The policewoman walked up to the woman closest to her and raised her hand to gently stroke her forehead.
Feeling the scorching heat on her hands, the policewoman frowned and said, "Captain, she has a fever."
"Woo woo!" Hearing the policewoman's words, the women who were tortured by the pain and unable to sleep opened their eyes one after another, making unclear sounds from their mouths, crawling little by little, and approaching Lu Chuan and the policewoman with tears in their eyes.
Only then did Lu Chuan realize that among these women, there was actually a pregnant woman with a big belly.
Lu Chuan was quick and agile and quickly untied the ropes on the women.
The women choked with tears but dared not make any loud noise.
The feverish woman leaned against the policewoman's arms and asked in a weak and hoarse voice: "Are you here to rescue us? Jialan escaped, right? We are saved, right!"
She was very emotional, but she hadn't had any water or food for a long time, so her voice was weak. The policewoman tried to get closer to the woman before she could hear what she was saying.
The policewoman did not answer the woman's questions to Jia Lan. While she was trying to calm the woman down, she looked at Lu Chuan and asked him what to do next.
They were assigned the Wanwan Mingyue case and came here under the guidance of Shen Yijin.
Jialan should also be a victim who was sold here. As to whether she escaped from the village and was rescued, they are not sure yet.
But at this time, it was obviously impossible to tell them the truth.
They are so traumatized that they may collapse in despair if they hear any bad news.
However, the policewoman didn't say it, but someone had already guessed it.
The pregnant woman had a look of despair on her face. She clutched her belly and fell to the ground in agony. "Jia Lan didn't escape, did she? Was she killed by those beasts? No, they won't kill her so soon. They will chop off her legs until her body can no longer bear children. Only then will they kill her..."
"Sister Qiao Hui, don't be so pessimistic. The police are here to rescue us. Even if Jialan didn't escape, at least she's still alive! As long as she's alive, there's still hope. The police will rescue us all." The woman who had just been captured a few days ago hurriedly crawled over to comfort the pregnant woman. Qiao Hui's due date is in these few months, and she can't be stimulated.
Lu Chuan also assured the women: "Yes, don't be afraid, we are here to rescue you. Don't worry, we police will definitely take you away from Paner Village safely and reunite you with your family."
Qiao Hui cried with joy, she covered her stomach and cried silently.
The woman who was trying to comfort Qiao Hui noticed a large amount of water flowing out from under Qiao Hui's legs and exclaimed in a low voice: "Oh no, Sister Qiao Qiao's water broke!"
The women who still had the strength to move around quickly crawled to Qiao Hui's side. Apart from cheering her on, they were anxiously wondering what to do.
Lu Chuan and the policewoman felt a sinking feeling in their hearts; giving birth at this time was not a good thing.
The villagers might wake up at any time after hearing the noise, and the heavy rain would continue soon, so they were unable to safely transfer the pregnant woman and other victims.
The conditions here are terrible and it is not safe to give birth to a child.
The policewoman is still very young and has never been in love, let alone know how to have a baby.
She went to help Qiao Hui give birth, and while helping with the delivery, she turned back and said to Lu Chuan, "Captain, leave this to me, you go up and tell everyone. We can't delay any longer, we have to take over this village today!"
The noise of Qiao Hui's childbirth would inevitably alarm the villagers. They had no way to take the victims away in advance, so they could only confront the villagers head-on.
Lu Chuan also understood the seriousness of the matter. He pointed to the intercom and gave a final reminder before leaving: "Be careful. Contact us at any time if anything happens."
"Woof!" The Schnauzer lay beside Wanwan Mingyue, who was still unconscious and unable to wake up, as if to say that it would protect its owner and other victims together with the policewoman.
Lu Chuan left the cellar and met up with his team members. They decided to start from this house and arrest people one by one.
He didn't notice that his cell phone was taken away by the Schnauzer, and the clever dog also remembered the password of his bank card.
After Lu Chuan left, Schnauzer opened Lu Chuan's mobile phone as if he was familiar with it, found Chen Yijin's live broadcast room, and started sending gifts smoothly.
The signal was not good in the mountains, but the Schnauzer persisted. After several freezes, gift effects of confession balloons appeared on the screen one after another.
Shen Yijin sensed Schnauzer's actions and smiled helplessly: "Okay, don't waste Lu Chuan's wallet. You want to ask about your master? Don't worry, the effect of the drug will wear off soon, and Wanwan Mingyue will wake up soon."
She continued, "You take the phone to the pregnant woman. She is weak and has the signs of heavy bleeding. I have a way to help her give birth naturally. Tell them to do as I say."
The Schnauzer quickly ran over with the phone in his mouth. Under the command of Shen Yijin, the policewoman and others successfully helped Qiao Hui give birth. After more than an hour of effort, she finally gave birth to a girl.
When Qiao Hui was giving birth, Lu Chuan and his men broke into the house outside the cellar and searched all the rooms, but found no one.
Lu Chuan and others felt their hearts sink immediately. They looked outside the window and found that the villagers were all holding hoes and sickles, standing in the yard, looking at the house fiercely.
No matter whether the people who broke into the village are policemen or not, and know the secrets of their village, they cannot let anyone leave here smoothly!
