Chapter 168: Are you a good person?
"I'll go with you." Su Chen wanted to see what tricks they were up to.
"That won't do. What if your people run away with my people? Let's go together."
The leader saw that Su Wan was also a woman. Judging from her voice, she still looked young. She was wearing a veil. She was either extremely beautiful or extremely ugly. It was better to take a gamble.
The three of them were tall and strong, but they couldn't do anything to two women and a young man with bare hands?
Su Chen was really worried about Su Wan, and after hesitating for a moment, he simply said:
"I'll take this girl with you guys, is that okay?"
He couldn't risk his sister's safety, but he also couldn't watch the girl fall into the devil's den.
Su Wan knew the strength of his third brother, so it was not a problem for him to deal with these minions.
We can't force a few human traffickers, so let's just keep that bitch for now. It's better than having no one at all.
"Okay, then come with us."
Seeing him compromise, Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief. That would be easy.
However, the girl hiding behind Su Wan was still very scared. She didn't dare to bet her future on a stranger.
In the face of life and death, forgive her for having her own selfish desires.
Su Wan saw her anxiety, so he leaned over to her ear and whispered:
"My brother is an expert. He will have no problem protecting you. Just go ahead and don't worry."
The girl looked at her doubtfully, and Su Wan gave her an affirmative look and smile.
The only option now is to take a gamble.
The girl closed her eyes and limped behind Su Chen.
"Wanwan, just wait for me in this crowded place. I will be back soon." Before leaving, Su Chen reminded Su Wan with some concern.
"I understand. Be careful, Third Brother."
Su Wan waved at him, and after they walked away and turned into an alley, the crowd around them gradually dispersed.
I looked around and saw a bundle of ropes on a stall not far away.
Su Wan walked over, and the shadow blocked part of the sunlight.
The vendor looked up and saw the girl in the bamboo hat asking:
"Boss, are you selling the rope?"
…
Su Chen followed those people into the depths of the alley.
Suddenly, several people stopped, began to stretch their muscles, and were ready to teach Su Chen a lesson.
"Boy, you dare to follow us alone? Today I will teach you a lesson on the law and let you know that it is right to mind your own business in the future." The leader approached step by step with a wicked smile.
However, Su Chen was not flustered, he just stood there with an expressionless face.
The girl was hiding behind Su Chen. Seeing this, she bravely stood up and stood in front of Su Chen.
"It has nothing to do with him. I'll just go back with you guys. I'll accept any beatings or punishments. Please don't implicate innocent people."
"Oh, now you know not to implicate innocent people? When you were running away and asking for help, why didn't you think about not implicating innocent people?"
"Get out of the way. I want to teach him a lesson."
The leader pulled the girl away and wanted to throw her to the ground, but the next second, Su Chen had already grabbed his wrist and exerted force, and the sound of bones breaking was heard.
The strong man who took the lead let out a terrible cry.
Su Chen used his other hand to pull the girl behind him, then raised his foot and kicked the nearest strong man.
With this kick, a 1.8-meter-tall man was kicked several meters away.
The remaining two are naturally no problem.
Su Chen beat them so hard that they couldn't even get up from the ground.
But he was so relaxed, not even taking a breath, and the girl was stunned.
Su Chen was planning to send these human traffickers to the government for punishment. Just when he was worried about having nothing to tie them up, Su Wan arrived.
She hung a rope on the side of her body and walked into the alley with difficulty, leading the two uncooperative horses.
"Third brother, give me a rope!"
Su Chen turned around and saw this scene, and was almost driven to death by his sister's cuteness.
They really have a tacit understanding, Su Wan understands him.
So Su Chen tied up the hands of several strong men, strung them together, and prepared to send them to the government.
The girl was still standing there stupidly.
"Miss, please come with me to the government office to testify against them and seek justice for you." Su Chen said this to her, and the girl's eyes instantly filled with tears.
She nodded vigorously, she met a good person today.
Together, the three of them sent the human traffickers to the government office and handed them over to the yamen runners.
There are three officials in a state, namely the highest-ranking governor, followed by the chief secretary, and finally the prefect, who are specifically responsible for redressing grievances and settling cases for the people.
When the prefect came out of the court, the strong men truthfully confessed their crimes.
The girl's name was Mimi. She said she came from the border and was brought here by these people to be sold.
In the end, these human traffickers were each beaten with twenty sticks and then sent to prison.
According to the law, Su Chen was rewarded with twenty taels of silver by the government for his meritorious service.
But as for Miss Mimi, the government office didn't care where she went, she just gained her freedom.
Su Wan was waiting outside, sitting on the steps with his chin propped up, and dozing off with the two horses out of boredom.
After waiting for a long time for Su Chen to come out, Su Wan finally woke up.
"Third brother, are you done?"
"Well, each of them was beaten with twenty sticks and then sent to prison." Su Chen smiled proudly.
Mimi followed Su Chen all the time, limping.
"Thank you, young master and young lady, for your help. Mimi is very grateful."
She knelt down and kowtowed to Su Chen and Su Wan.
Su Wan hurried to help her:
"You're welcome. Go home now."
"I……"
Mimi stood up with an indescribable expression. The brother and sister looked at each other, and Su Chen was the first to react.
"You don't have any money, do you? Here are twenty taels for you. Take them home."
Su Chen gave the twenty taels of silver he had received as a reward to Mimi.
"No, my home is very far away..." Mimi bit her lip and said in a low voice.
"Where are you from?" Su Wan asked.
"I'm not from Jin country. I'm from the Wuya tribe. I was lured out of the country and then brought here..." Mimi explained, her voice getting lower and lower.
"The Wuya Tribe? That's even further from the border. No wonder you just said you were from the border."
Su Chen suddenly realized. He heard that the Wuya tribe had repeatedly invaded the border of Jin State in the past two years, and the two sides were in dire straits.
If she told the prefect truthfully that she was from the Uya tribe, she would probably be treated as a spy.
"Yes, I dare not say it." Mimi looked at the two of them aggrievedly.
"Then why did you tell us?" Su Chen asked again.
After all, this is an outsider woman, so he should be wary of her.
"Because you are good people, I only dare to trust you." Mimi replied.
When they saw that she was in trouble, they did not stand idly by, but helped her and were willing to generously donate money to her.
How bad can such a person be?
"What about you? Are you a good person?" Su Chen asked again.
