Jiang Li took off her makeup on the way and came to the town's guesthouse empty-handed.
The name of this small town is Xinghua Town, which is connected to more than a dozen surrounding villages. The Public Security Bureau received information that human traffickers are active in Xinghua Town.
The reason why Jiang Li wanted to go to Zaoni Village was because that was the village where his sister was eventually sold.
She wanted to go there to recognize her relatives just to find out about their situation at that time.
Even if she couldn't find her sister this time, she would use the limited few days to infiltrate the inside. It would be best if she could find a spy in the village to help her keep an eye on the situation here and send a telegram to her immediately if there was any movement.
In this way, she could get the information about her sister at the first time, and once her sister was sold to Zaoni Village, she could rush over to rescue her immediately.
Staying in a guesthouse is not cheap, but Jiang Li only plans to stay for a day or two, so it is basically acceptable.
Jiang Li spent a day and a night on the train, fought with a few pickpockets, successfully sent them to the public security bureau, and went to Zaoni Village to find out some inside information.
Jiang Li worked non-stop throughout the day and was really exhausted.
She threw her bag on the bed in the guesthouse, found some clean clothes and went to the guesthouse's private bathhouse.
The bathhouse here is a public bathhouse where a group of people take a bath together.
Jiang Li had indeed swam before, but that was in a swimsuit. Now a group of women were naked and taking a bath in the pool. Her scalp tingled just by looking at them.
Fortunately, the guesthouse also had a private bathroom, but the space was limited, so Jiang Li had to wait for a long time before it was his turn.
Although it is a public place, it is surrounded by concrete walls and a curtain is hung outside, giving it a little sense of privacy.
There were too many people in line, so Jiang Li didn't dare to wash for too long. She washed for less than ten minutes. Her whole body was washed red, so she quickly wiped the water off and put on her clothes.
After taking a shower this time, Jiang Li felt relaxed all over. She locked the door and lay down on the bed in the guesthouse. She was so tired that she didn't want to move at all.
Jiang Li closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Jiang Li opened his eyes at dawn.
Looking at this strange place, it took her a while to react.
I often have bouts of chest pain and pain. I didn't breastfeed my baby all night, and my breasts have become as hard as bricks.
She quickly brought in a basin of hot water and massaged her breasts with a towel while squeezing out the milk.
After struggling for half an hour, the swollen breasts finally shrank.
Seeing the white milk being poured away like that, and thinking of the two hungry children at home, Jiang Li felt sad.
If it weren't for her younger sister, she really wouldn't want to leave her two children behind, and would be even less willing to make this long journey.
Although we have arrived in Xinghua Town, the Public Security Bureau has provided very few clues.
Xinghua Town was bigger than she had imagined. With the little information she had, finding the human traffickers here was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Jiang Li knew that he didn't have much time left, so he didn't waste it at all and went straight to Zaoni Village as soon as he got off the train.
If we can find the whereabouts of the human traffickers here, we can rescue my sister as soon as possible.
Even if the human traffickers cannot be found, leaving an informant here in advance is much better than having no news of my sister for several months and having to sit at home and wait in vain.
Jiang Li took out some food from the space and had a simple breakfast.
After a good night's sleep last night, Jiang Li now feels relaxed and all his fatigue is gone.
But when Jiang Li thought about the fact that two days had already passed without any progress, he felt guilty.
There is too little time left for her, it would be better if it could be faster.
Jiang Li simply put on some makeup in front of the mirror, not to become more beautiful, but to slightly cover up her beauty.
A young woman suddenly came to such a remote mountain village, and she was pretty. Jiang Li was afraid that he would encounter unnecessary trouble.
After a simple makeup, her beauty was concealed by 50%.
Compared to her exaggerated appearance yesterday, she is still different. Today she is normal, just with an ordinary appearance, the kind that can't be recognized in a crowd.
Jiang Li took her small bag with the letter of introduction in it. She checked out of the guesthouse and walked quickly towards Zaoni Village along the route she had taken yesterday.
Jiang Li was holding some brown sugar and some noodles in her hands. She had prepared these things in advance.
It would be unreasonable not to prepare something when you have come all the way here to find your relatives and stay with them.
When he was about to enter the village, Zaonicun adjusted his breath, and even his eyes instantly showed exhaustion.
Jiang Li entered the village in this state. As expected, as soon as she entered the village, the villagers turned around and looked at her in unison.
The main reason is that there are very few outsiders coming to their village, so they are very curious about every outsider who comes.
Some people began to wonder what was going on in their village recently.
Yesterday a peddler selling daily necessities came, and today a little girl came. It has been very lively these two days.
"Dear uncles and aunts, is this Zaoni Village?"
Jiang Li's eyes were filled with panic, and he even asked questions cautiously.
When everyone saw her timid look, they immediately let down their guard.
"Girl, you look like you're from out of town. This is Zaoni Village. Who are you looking for in our village?"
"Ever since the educated youth stopped going to the countryside, there haven't been any outsiders in our village for a long time."
"Our village is very poor. Are you coming here to live with relatives? We don't have any wealthy relatives here. We are all poor people who have trouble getting enough to eat."
The villagers began to talk about the situation in the village. Jiang Li had heard these words once when he came to sell things yesterday.
"My parents are both dead, and my family is so poor that we can barely make ends meet. When they were still alive, they told me that my great aunt Liu Guilan was living a good life in Zaoni Village in the northeast."
"My family's life is so hard that I have no choice but to come and live with my aunt. Fellow villagers, please tell me where my aunt lives."
Jiang Li looked at them with longing. The villagers who were very active just now fell silent as soon as they heard Liu Guilan's name.
Jiang Li was still looking at them expectantly. She tilted her head and asked in confusion.
"Why aren't you talking? Where does my aunt Liu Guilan live? I want to go find her right now!"
"The great-aunt Liu Guilan you're talking about came to our village as an educated youth, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes. My aunt is from the south and moved to the Northeast. I heard that she must have suffered a lot, but she actually took root here. I guess she's living a good life, right?"
Jiang Li had a hopeful smile on his face, a smile that showed his longing for a better life.
"If the person you're looking for is really her, I'm afraid you're too late!"
