The group of people, who were invisible, quickly boarded their respective trains home.
"Sister, where do you live? Let me take you and your child home first."
Just as the woman with the broken leg was about to answer, a wave of numbness and pain shot through her legs. Her legs, which had been numb for a long time, suddenly began to feel real again.
"Quick, put me down, my leg..."
The young girl sensed something and let her go.
The moment her feet touched the ground, she almost jumped for joy.
It really wasn't a hallucination; her leg was healed! She no longer needed to drag her disabled body back to be a burden on her parents.
"Sister, your leg is all better now, that's great, that's great..."
The two silently thanked the savior once again, then hugged goodbye and embarked on their journey home.
Watching them walk away, Qi An flashed into the void, leaving only a wisp of his soul to watch over the outside world.
The police car drove all the way out of the mountains without seeing a single suspicious woman.
But that doesn't make sense. How could a four-wheeled vehicle not catch up with a group of women walking on two legs?
Worried that they might encounter danger on the way, and fearing that they might be contemplating suicide, the police car returned along the same route and searched again, but still found no one.
A dozen women and five or six children simply vanished into thin air.
They were nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead.
The task force quickly set up camp in the village, and the entire village was placed under control. Everyone was interrogated one by one.
Thus, the sins of this evil mountain village, which had remained unknown for so many years, were exposed to the light of day.
The captain's suspicions were correct; almost the entire village was involved in human trafficking, and countless girls had been trapped here for decades.
The interrogation process was so infuriating that it was impossible to continue. Even these seasoned members of the special task force had to raise their fists countless times.
“Our village is poor, and no woman is willing to marry into our village. We have no choice but to buy wives; if we don’t buy wives, where will we find women to give us sons?”
"Why do we have to have children? If I don't have a son, my family line will end. I won't have the face to face my ancestors after I die."
“There’s no other way but to beat them up. All the women outside are no good. They all look down on us and have no intention of living with us. They all want to run away, so we have no choice but to beat them up.”
"Murder? No, no, no, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone. They all died of illness, or fell into a ditch and died while trying to escape, really."
"What? Go to jail? We didn't steal or rob, we paid for it all, why are you arresting us?"
Several female police officers considered turning off the recording equipment and beating these ignorant and vicious beasts half to death.
Aside from the women who killed their enemies and fled, there were some who dared not resist or who couldn't bear to leave their children and didn't go.
These women truthfully confessed everything they knew, but remained silent when the police asked about the escape group's information.
They didn't have that kind of courage, but they admired their compatriots who dared to fight back.
Therefore, no comment.
They were unwilling to speak, and those who wanted to speak couldn't recall their names or faces at all.
I clearly remembered it just a moment ago, how come I can't remember anything at all in an instant?
The surviving indigenous people in the village hated those women to the core; they blamed those vile women for ruining the peace of their village.
So the police questioned all the villagers, but they got no information about the runaway woman.
The task force stayed in the village for ten days. When they left, more than a dozen police cars arrived, filled with handcuffed villagers and the rescued women.
These people will receive their due punishment, but unfortunately, due to the passage of time and lack of evidence, they cannot be convicted of murder.
As mere buyers, they wouldn't even be locked up for a few years before being released.
Another month passed, and this major human trafficking case finally came to an end, but there was still no news of the group of murderers who fled.
No matter how the police interrogated them, they couldn't get a single useful piece of information about them.
Left with no other option, the police truthfully published the case results online and then asked various departments to investigate suspicious individuals who had suddenly appeared in various places over the past month.
These are women whose families reported them missing, but who have recently returned home unexpectedly.
We also urge the public to report any violations.
However, this move caused an uproar.
Previously, people only knew that the girls were trafficked, but they did not know that many men in that village had been killed, and that the group of women who committed the murders had not yet been caught.
The internet was filled with cheers, "Well done!"
"Resistance is not a crime"
"They should not be punished."
"They did nothing wrong."
...
Immediately afterwards, countless posts appeared online, and countless people stood up, all of them supporting them.
"Sisters, you are all amazing! I'm so proud of you!"
“You are not wrong. The wrong ones are those beasts. Murder is a crime, but you didn’t kill a human being, so it doesn’t matter.”
"My heart aches for you. I want to give you a hug. You've suffered so much, but things will get better."
"Make sure you hide well, don't be stupid and jump out."
"I'll say it three times: Don't come out, don't come out, don't come out..."
Friends, if you spot a suspicious person, do you know what to do?
"I'll watch right here and see which traitor dares to report them."
"The person who reports this will inevitably encounter human traffickers when they go out in the future."
...
The women who have successfully returned to their families have lost their power and have been carefully hidden away by their parents and family members.
They would read online comments whenever they had free time, and seeing so many people supporting them, their wounded hearts slowly began to warm up again.
This is what life is all about!
In an ordinary residential area, a man who was collecting clothes on his balcony turned his head and saw a girl sitting in the corner of his neighbor's French window.
Due to the angle of view, only their house can see that location.
Upon seeing the girl's appearance, the man couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart.
The man didn't even bother to put away his clothes and rushed into the bedroom, shouting, "Wife, wife, guess who I saw?"
"who?"
"Qingqing is the daughter of Aunt Wang next door."
"What?" The woman who was posting supportive comments online suddenly sat up.
"Qingqing isn't...?"
The woman went to the balcony to confirm it herself, "It really is Qingqing."
Two months ago, Qingqing disappeared on her way home from get off work, and Aunt Wang and her husband almost couldn't make it through.
They called the police and posted missing person notices.
Why are we back again?
The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously thought of the same thing: Could Qingqing be one of those people?
"Wife, what should we do?"
The woman slapped the man lightly, warning him, "You don't know anything. Watch your mouth, understand?"
"If you dare to reveal even half a word of this, I'll sew it up for you myself."
The man nodded obediently: "I understand, wife."
Aunt Wang was just about to call her daughter for dinner when she received a message on her phone from the woman next door: "Aunt Wang, it's windy on the balcony, remember to draw the curtains. If anyone comes over, you can stay at my place."
Aunt Wang's eyes instantly welled up with tears as she read the message.
She wiped her eyes and walked towards the balcony with a smile: "Qingqing, dinner's ready. Mom made your favorite boiled fish."
