After Shen Yuandao watched Qin Huaichuan leave, he stared at the hunchbacked old lady opposite without blinking.
The old lady had no idea that someone was staring at her. She hunched over and staggered to the yard next door.
The hunchbacked old woman gently knocked on the slightly old wooden door.
After a long while, the door creaked open, revealing a childish face - it was a little child, about seven or eight years old.
He stood at the door, holding half a steamed bun in his hand.
A kind smile appeared on the old lady's face. She lowered her head and said something to the child in her gentle and slightly hoarse voice.
The child nodded after hearing this, then went straight into the yard and closed the door.
The hunchbacked old woman was blocked outside the door and waited motionlessly.
The doubts in Shen Yuandao’s heart grew bigger and bigger.
Today, Captain Song met the director and he came back with a very bad face. Then he asked them to divide into several teams, guard several yards, and keep an eye on the people inside. If a bald middle-aged man with a broken right little finger came out, they would be captured immediately.
He and Qin Huaichuan were assigned to a group to guard the yard opposite.
But they waited for the whole morning, and now it was past three in the afternoon, and only a hunchbacked old woman came out.
Shen Yuandao either there was no one they wanted to catch in this yard, or the person they wanted to catch did not come out.
Soon, the gate was opened again, and this time a middle-aged man came out. He was wearing a washed-out blue shirt, had a simple face, and a look of vigilance in his eyes.
However, when the middle-aged man saw the hunchbacked old woman, he smiled and started talking to her. Although Shen Yuandao couldn't hear the specific content, he could feel that the two were very familiar with each other.
After the conversation, the middle-aged man turned around and quickly walked into the yard. After a while, he came out with a package.
The hunchbacked old woman turned around with the package and walked towards the end of the alley.
Shen Yuandao stared at the package thoughtfully and found that there was a place on the package that was obviously wet.
His brows were tightly knitted together. This hunchbacked old woman and the middle-aged man just now were very suspicious. And what was in the package?
Seeing the hunchbacked old woman getting farther and farther away, he began to hesitate.
Should he continue to stare at the yard that Captain Song mentioned or follow the hunchbacked old woman?
His intuition told him that there would be gains if he followed the hunchbacked old woman. Thinking of this, he was about to follow the hunchbacked old woman when he saw Qin Huaichuan and Song Qingshan coming over.
The two men just happened to pass by the hunchbacked old woman.
Shen Yuandao became anxious, and he quickly winked at Qin Huaichuan.
Qin Huaichuan's eyes flashed, and he turned around and chased after her without hesitation, blocking the hunchbacked old woman accurately.
Shen Yuandao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.
The hunchbacked old woman was obviously startled by this sudden change. Her heart tightened, but she quickly regained her composure and asked in her slightly hoarse voice:
"Young comrade, what are you doing? I'm just an ordinary old woman, why are you stopping me?"
Qin Huaichuan raised a barely perceptible smile and said casually:
"Auntie, don't misunderstand me. I just saw that you look so much like my long-lost aunt, and I got so excited that I couldn't help but stop you. Please don't be offended!"
The hunchbacked old woman was obviously relieved after hearing this, and her grip on the package loosened a little. She patted her chest, looking frightened.
"Oh! So that's how it is. I was wondering why I was stopped so suddenly. But, young man, I don't know you, and we are not related. Can I leave now?"
Qin Huaichuan glanced at Shen Yuandao out of the corner of his eye. Shen Yuandao's eyes were fixed on the package in the hunchbacked old woman's hand.
Qin Huaichuan is very smart, coupled with the tacit understanding that he and Qin Huaichuan grew up together, he understood what Shen Yuandao meant.
An apologetic smile suddenly appeared on Qin Huaichuan's face. He bowed slightly and looked at the hunchbacked old woman sincerely.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Auntie. My eyesight is not good and I recognized the wrong person. Please continue on your way and don't let me delay you."
After saying this, he gently moved sideways to make way for the hunchbacked old woman.
Seeing this, the hunchbacked old woman nodded and prepared to move on, although she was still confused.
However, at the moment she took a step forward, Qin Huaichuan seemed to inadvertently sway his body slightly and "bumped" into the hunchbacked old woman just right.
The hunchbacked old woman was caught off guard and quickly lost her balance. The package in her hand slipped out of her hand and fell heavily to the ground.
The hunchbacked old woman's face changed drastically. She no longer cared about the package. She no longer hunched over. She straightened her hunched back instantly and turned around to run away at an astonishing speed.
At this critical moment, Song Qingshan took a quick step forward and quickly subdued the hunchbacked old woman.
The hunchbacked old woman struggled a few times, but was ultimately unable to resist and could only let out bursts of wailing.
Qin Huaichuan never moved his eyes from beginning to end. He stared at the scattered package.
His face gradually became gloomy, his eyes were full of shock and anger, as well as an indescribable grief.
After subduing the hunchbacked old woman, Song Qingshan also followed Qin Huaichuan's gaze and looked at the package.
When he saw clearly what was in the package, his face instantly became even uglier than Qin Huaichuan's.
The package contained a pair of children's arms, with blood still stained on their tender skin, which looked particularly shocking.
At this time, the little boy from the yard came out.
He was originally attracted by the strange movement here and couldn't help but lean over to take a look. However, he didn't expect that this glance was like being struck by lightning. His eyes widened instantly, and his face was full of disbelief.
He ran over like crazy and pounced on the package on the ground. When he was about to touch the two bloody little arms with trembling hands, he was stopped in time by Qin Huaichuan.
The boy stared at the two little arms on the ground without blinking. The little rabbit pendant strung with a red rope on the arm was particularly eye-catching.
Is this...my sister?
But didn't Dad say my sister was abducted by human traffickers? Why was my sister's arm in the package Dad gave to that old woman?
No, this couldn't be his sister.
But why is the red bunny string on this little arm exactly the same as the one he bought for his sister?
He shook his head desperately, forcing himself not to believe that this was his sister's arm.
He knelt on the ground and murmured, "This is not my sister... My sister was just abducted by human traffickers..."
The little boy's voice choked as he spoke. He pointed at the pendant with a trembling hand, tears welling up in his eyes. "This little rabbit might just be a coincidence... Yes, a coincidence. I'm going to find my sister... My sister is still waiting for me..."
Mom, you will bless me to find my sister, right?
