Chapter 023 If you can do it, go ahead!
By seven o'clock in the morning, the carriage was noisy again.
Ye Qing was actually a little hungry, but considering that there were still people selling this time bomb, she was a little hesitant about whether to go to the dining car for breakfast.
Li Juan had a stomachache after running all night and didn't sleep well, so she looked frighteningly ugly in the morning.
Seeing Li Juan in such a miserable state, Ye Qing couldn't help but remind her out of professional habit:
"If you have diarrhea, drink light salt water to replenish water in time."
Li Juan was stunned for a moment, then she curled her lips and questioned angrily:
"This is the first time I've heard of drinking salt water for diarrhea. Are you trying to salt me to death? Don't think I don't know. You're just trying to take advantage of my illness to hurt me!"
Li Juan showed a vigilant expression as if saying "Don't think you can fool me, I've seen through you."
Ye Qing: ...
She wanted to slap herself in the face. She gave in. Why did she have to say anything more to such an idiot? She was full and had enough, so why did she care about others? Even if he died, it had nothing to do with her!
Ye Qing was reflecting deeply on himself when he heard a sudden ding-dong from the train broadcast, and the announcer's voice came from inside:
——Dear passengers, the train will soon arrive in Pingxian and will stop for 20 minutes. Please get on and off the train in an orderly manner and return to the carriage in time. Do not stay on the platform for a long time.
As soon as this broadcast sounded, the passengers in the entire carriage became much more energized.
After sitting on the bus for a whole day and a night, many people were feeling suffocated. When they heard that the bus would stop for 20 minutes, they couldn't wait to get off and get some fresh air.
At this time, the farmer couple that the old lady had targeted suddenly called out to the old lady who had taken the seat:
"Auntie, my baby is still sleeping. I feel a little uncomfortable here. Why don't you let your grandson eat a few bites first?"
When the old lady heard such a good thing, her eyes immediately lit up and she quickly picked up her grandson and went to the back.
Ye Qing secretly complained in his heart:
This old lady is addicted to taking advantage of others. She really wants to take a bite of anyone she catches, no matter where she is. The best way to deal with such a person is to be tough and not give her any chances, otherwise she will definitely go too far and climb up the pole.
This peasant couple is still a little too honest. The old lady's grandson looks quite big and has an unusually large appetite. If they really let this child eat first, he will definitely drink up all the food for her own child!
As I was thinking this, the train slowly pulled into Pingxian Railway Station.
Before the train came to a complete stop, I heard someone in the carriage pointing at the platform outside:
"Look, we've come across something fun. There's an old beggar playing with two monkeys outside. Let's go and see what's going on!"
As soon as these words came out, many passengers immediately became agitated and asked anxiously: "Where is it? Where is it?"
Ye Qing was sitting by the window. He could lean his head out of the window and saw a circle formed on the platform. Passengers were crowded there in three layers, watching the excitement.
In the open space in the middle of the circle stood a slovenly old beggar. In his hand was a rope with a loop at the other end, which was around the neck of a female monkey.
Next to the mother monkey, there are two little monkeys, which look like they are the mother's cubs.
Led by the mother monkey, the three monkeys were riding unicycles, throwing rings, and making faces. From time to time, they would jump into the crowd to shake hands with people, or jump onto people's shoulders and backs, and even steal food from the hands of onlookers.
People in the city don't often see these monkey tricks, so the actions of the three monkeys easily attracted everyone's attention, and everyone's eyes were unconsciously focused on these monkeys.
Perhaps a train just happened to be pulling into the station. The old beggar noticed that another train was coming. Suddenly his eyes lit up. He picked up the whistle around his neck and blew it hard, giving instructions to the two little monkeys.
It's just that the little monkeys were a little slow to react, maybe they didn't understand or what. One of them squatted on the ground with a confused look on its face, while another one tilted its head and looked around. None of them obeyed the instructions.
The old beggar became furious and raised his whip to whip the two little monkeys.
The little monkey was beaten so hard that it grimaced and screamed. The mother monkey, who was chained with an iron chain, was so frightened that she rushed forward to protect her baby. Unexpectedly, the beggar beat her too.
Seeing the three monkeys being beaten, some in the crowd shouted in surprise, some cheered, and some laughed. Everyone was attracted by this funny and chaotic scene.
Even the passengers in the carriage could no longer bear it. As soon as the carriage door opened, they all rushed out of the train and onto the platform.
When Ye Qing saw the crowd that was surrounding the place, he felt nervous and immediately sounded the alarm.
Her eyes scanned the crowd warily, and soon her gaze fixed, and her heart sank.
After upgrading her wood ability, her vision became much sharper, so even though the crowd on the platform was a little far away, she could still see them clearly.
There were many people in the circle surrounding the monkey show. Some were concentrating on watching the show, but some were just making a mess, rushing into crowded places and deliberately pushing and crowding to create chaos.
Then, in this situation, some people began to take advantage of the situation. Ye Qing saw with his own eyes that some people hid iron hooks and knives in their sleeves and specifically targeted the coat pockets and shoulder bags of those who were watching the show.
She immediately understood what the man performing the monkey show on the platform was doing.
He was specially arranged by the pickpocket gang to distract the attention of these tourists!
There were several pickpockets in the crowd. Their movements were very skilled and they were obviously habitual offenders. They worked in perfect harmony with each other and it was unknown how many people's belongings would be stolen by them without anyone noticing.
Ye Qing frowned immediately after seeing this.
In this case, she would never get off the bus, nor would she alert these people to the thief.
She doesn't have such a strong sense of heroism and will never do anything beyond her ability.
These people are a gang, who knows how many helpers are hidden in the crowd? She is just a weakling in the healing department, and she dare not do porcelain work without diamond diamonds!
What's more, she had a huge sum of money hidden on her body, and it was too late to think of a way to hide it. If she had to use a conspicuous bag, what if she was targeted by this gang?
Ye Qing did not forget that there was a cannon fodder on her head.
Having avoided the big pitfall of diarrhea, who knows if there will be other pitfalls waiting for her in the future?
She had to remind herself all the time, "Don't waste your time", she wouldn't die if she didn't get off the train to join in the excitement, so if she could honestly survive these two days and two nights, and arrive safely in Wusong City and get off the train, she would be a winner!
Thinking of this, Ye Qing retracted his head and shrank back to his seat, ready to enter into meditation.
But when she turned around and looked towards the compartment she was in, she was suddenly shocked.
In just a short while, the carriage was almost empty, and people actually ran downstairs to watch the excitement!
That would be fine, but even that old lady who loves to take advantage of others went to watch the monkey show, and she kept squeezing into the crowd, trying to get to the innermost part, not even caring about her grandson! This really made Ye Qing speechless!
Wait! Grandson! Yes, where is the old lady’s grandson?
Ye Qing's face changed suddenly and he looked back hurriedly.
The peasant couple in between were each holding a child. The swaddled child was in the man's arms, while the old lady's grandson was held horizontally by the woman, with his face facing the woman's chest, as if he was breastfeeding.
But the two men did not sit quietly in their seats, but stood up and prepared to get off the car!
The old lady's grandson had been very naughty in the car before, wanting to touch everything and was very restless. But now he was extremely honest in the woman's arms, so quiet and submissive that it was almost weird.
If Ye Qing still doesn't understand what's going on at this moment, then she is a fool!
The old lady's grandson must have been bewildered by the couple! Otherwise, he wouldn't be in this state!
Moreover, when the car just stopped, the couple showed no signs of getting out. They only prepared to get out after most people in the car had left. This is very abnormal!
Ye Qing was not without vigilance. In fact, she had suspected the couple before, and she had even observed and studied them carefully.
But after observation, Ye Qing found that the woman was indeed breastfeeding. The child in her arms cried once, and she was very skilled in feeding the child. The way the couple took care of the child and even their interactions seemed normal. Ye Qing did not find any flaws in them, so she did not think of them as human traffickers at all.
Ye Qing was even worried that the couple would be targeted by human traffickers. After all, they had a child with them, making them the best target for human traffickers.
Who knew that after she had been doubting for a long time, she actually ruled out the suspect!
Now the couple was about to run away with their child, but the old lady was still squeezed in the crowd outside, watching the excitement excitedly, and she had no idea that her grandson was about to be kidnapped!
Ye Qing no longer cared about hiding in the corner like a mushroom, so he quickly stood up and tried to pass Li Juan to stop the traffickers from getting off the car.
She didn't intend to do it in public. She just planned to ambush at the corner where the carriages were connected, and when the couple were in a hurry to get off the car and not paying attention, she would secretly tie them up with rattan sticks and throw them into the toilet. As long as she could successfully snatch the child from their hands, there would be no problem.
As for whether these two were a gang and whether they had other accomplices, she would have to wait until she secretly called the flight attendant over to find out. Anyway, as long as these two did not hold the child hostage, everything would be fine.
Ye Qing had a good plan and didn't take dealing with these two traffickers as a big deal.
But she hadn't expected that there was someone hiding in the car, ready to stretch his legs and trap her at any time!
Perhaps it was the influence of the Koi Fishing Festival. It was so lively outside and everyone went downstairs to join in the fun, but she had a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart that prevented her from getting off the bus.
So she just sat in her seat and didn't move.
Li Juan was exhausted from diarrhea, so of course she didn't get off the car.
There were not many people in the carriage, and Ye Qing's sudden standing up immediately attracted the attention of the fake sisters.
Li Juan glanced at Ye Qing, thinking that Ye Qing was also going to join in the fun, and frowned, not willing to give up her seat to Ye Qing.
Yin Shuang was also secretly watching Ye Qing's movements. Seeing that she was looking in a certain direction with an anxious look on her face, she subconsciously looked in the direction Ye Qing was looking.
At this glance, she also saw the peasant couple and their two children getting off the bus.
Yin Shuang had a high IQ. She understood what was going on with the couple in a flash.
But although her brain works quickly, her intelligence is not used in the right place.
After realizing what Ye Qing wanted to do, the absurd thought of defeating Ye Qing instantly occupied Yin Shuang's mind.
She realized that if she discovered this first, she would be as famous as Ye Qing before and become a hero praised by everyone! Then everyone would only praise and recognize her, and the scandal of her mother that Ye Qing exposed before would also be forgotten, and no one would embarrass her anymore!
With this thought in mind, Yin Shuang no longer cared about anything else. She immediately stood up before Ye Qing and shouted at the couple:
"Where are you two going? Put the child down!"
Ye Qing paused and looked at Yin Shuang in disbelief.
Yin Shuang looked very proud, as if she had done something amazing before Ye Qing. She raised her voice even more and more fiercely.
"Hurry up, someone, catch the traffickers, someone is trying to kidnap the children, we can't let them get off the bus!"
Ye Qing didn't expect Yin Shuang to do such a magical thing:...
The corners of her mouth twitched, and seeing Yin Shuang over there looking extremely happy that she had snatched the credit from her, she said decisively, "Okay, if you can do it, go ahead! I'm just thinking about how to get to the final destination. If you have good luck and you're not afraid of being retaliated by the traffickers, then let you do it, and I won't get involved!"
So she didn't waste any words and sat back down immediately. The whole process went smoothly without any stuttering.
Seeing Ye Qing retreat, Yin Shuang was a little confused.
But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back, and the current situation does not allow her to be distracted and think too much.
Because she was the first to act as the whistleblower, her shouts directly startled the remaining passengers in the carriage.
People these days are very active in catching human traffickers and spies. When they heard Yin Shuang say that a human trafficker was trying to kidnap children, they immediately rushed out to help.
The couple had never expected that they had stayed in the car for such a long time without attracting anyone's attention or suspicion. However, when they were about to get out of the car after successfully obtaining their possession, they unexpectedly overturned the car and were discovered by someone!
When Yin Shuang shouted, the two vendors' faces suddenly changed. After looking at each other, they immediately sped up and ran towards the car.
At this time, there were crowds of people outside the car, and everyone was watching the monkey perform tricks. As long as you squeeze into the crowd, it will be difficult to lock on to the tracking target.
There was no surveillance at the time, and there were so many people holding children. All they had to do was change their clothes, or simply pass the child on to someone else, and then it would be hard to catch up with them in the vast crowd.
Yin Shuang finally realized at this time that she was being reckless.
She was so focused on stealing Ye Qing's limelight that she never considered that shouting like that would directly alarm the enemy. If the person ran away, it would be a disaster!
Perhaps it was her lucky luck that worked again. She just then realized that she had done something stupid. Two people with red armbands suddenly came in from the connection between the carriages in front of her and blocked the way of the two merchants.
The two merchants were now extremely pissed off. There were people with red armbands in front of them and passengers behind them. Their way was blocked at both ends. If they didn't run away, they would be doomed!
The woman reacted the fastest. She threw the old lady's grandson in her arms to the ground, rolled over and threw herself towards the car window closest to her.
Everyone saw a flash before their eyes, and the female vendor had already jumped out of the car window. She landed easily and disappeared in the crowd in a flash.
How could this be allowed? The other passengers in the carriage could not help but lean over to the window and shout to the crowd below:
"Catch the human trafficker! Catch that woman quickly, she is a human trafficker!"
But the people below were all paying attention to the monkey, and no one knew what was happening on the bus. Even if the passengers shouted loudly, it was drowned out by the laughter in the crowd.
Several male passengers and the man with the red armband quickly rushed towards the remaining vendor.
Yin Shuang was also anxious. If the man also jumped out of the window and ran away, how could she make a contribution? So she rushed up without thinking.
Nowadays, trains are overcrowded and security management is difficult, so a train is usually equipped with several people wearing red armbands, commonly known as train police, and these train police all carry guns.
When the woman ran away, the two men with red armbands had just turned into this carriage and had not yet figured out the situation. They only reacted after the man jumped out of the window. At this moment, the two of them immediately pulled out their guns and pointed them at the remaining man.
"Don't move! I'll shoot you if you move again! Put the child down!"
Hearing the sound of the safety being pulled off a pistol, the man froze.
After realizing that he had lost the opportunity to escape, he gritted his teeth, slowly put the swaddling clothes in his hand on the seat, and kept looking around, looking for a breakthrough.
Suddenly his eyes met Yin Shuang in the crowd.
The businessman suddenly remembered that if this woman hadn't been meddling in other people's business and shouting and yelling, their plan would have succeeded immediately and he wouldn't have fallen into this situation!
In an instant, a vicious and crazy idea suddenly emerged in the man's mind, that is, since I am not having a good life, I must grab this woman to use as a cushion before I die!
The next second after their eyes met, a fierce light flashed in the man's eyes, and before anyone could react, he rushed towards Yin Shuang like a madman.
Before she knew it, Yin Shuang's strong intuition saved her once again. She sensed the danger in advance and instinctively backed away. While backing away, she frantically grabbed for things nearby, subconsciously trying to find something to save herself.
Then, as luck would have it, she escaped to the row of seats where Ye Qing and the others were sitting, and caught Li Juan who was sitting on the aisle side.
This grab was almost an instinctive reaction. Yin Shuang pulled Li Juan up from her seat without thinking and pushed her behind her, pushing the defenseless Li Juan into the arms of the merchant who rushed over.
This divine display stunned Ye Qing.
Oh my god! The plot is the same again! But the unlucky cannon fodder in the original novel has been changed from her to Li Juan, the big wronged one!
Ye Qing's eyes were fixed, and the look he gave Yin Shuang was one of horror and surprise. So the issue of who would be the cannon fodder could also be called for transfer, right?
Li Juan was also confused. She didn't expect Yin Shuang to do this. When she came to her senses, the trafficker had grabbed her hair and a dagger was pressed against her neck.
The sharp tip of the knife cut a bloody mark on Li Juan's neck. She was already weak and sore from diarrhea, and now she was held hostage by this human trafficker. She had no strength to struggle. She was immediately frightened and her face turned pale, with only fear and despair in her eyes.
The human trafficker failed to catch Yin Shuang, his eyes were filled with resentment and anger. He grabbed Li Juan's braid with one hand and blocked her in front of him. With the other hand, he held a dagger and pointed it at Li Juan's neck. He smiled at the two flight attendants and police officers:
"Stand back! Let me get out of the car! Otherwise I'll kill her!"
The two policemen did not expect the trafficker to be so arrogant, and they let the trafficker capture a lesbian as a shield.
For fear of hurting the hostages in the hands of the criminals, the two policemen were cautious and did not dare to shoot easily.
After realizing that he had a chance to escape, the trafficker was very proud. His eyes fell on Yin Shuang's face, as if he wanted to imprint this face in his mind. After looking at her deeply for several seconds, he dragged Li Juan back carefully.
However, just when the trafficker thought he could get away with it, he suddenly felt a flash of silver light beside him.
The next moment, the man froze, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he fell straight to the ground, with the dagger in his hand falling to the ground with a thud.
Everyone present was stunned by this sudden situation. They looked at each other, and no one knew what was going on.
The two flight attendants were also confused, but they still bravely walked forward to investigate the situation.
Upon seeing this, they were both stunned.
Because in the blink of an eye, the man had fainted on the ground and lost consciousness!
Who did it? How did they do it? What was the cause of the coma?
The two men quickly pulled Li Juan away, quickly took out handcuffs and handcuffed the unconscious man, trying to control him first.
Then, the two men contacted several other police officers on the train and surrounded the man for a careful inspection.
But after studying it for several minutes, the two of them couldn't figure out the clues.
The two policemen scanned the passengers in the carriage one by one with vigilant and inquiring eyes, trying to find any suspicious people among them.
Ye Qing had been huddled in the innermost seat, trying his best to make his facial expression no different from that of other passengers, making himself appear to have little sense of existence but not to be particularly noticed, thus ensuring that he would not be noticed by the two policemen.
The two policemen scanned her body and did not suspect her.
The main reason is that Ye Qing is only sixteen years old now, with a pale and thin face, and looks non-aggressive. It is difficult for anyone to connect her with this incident.
Only after the two policemen turned their attention elsewhere did Ye Qing heave a sigh of relief and quietly put the remaining sewing needle in his hand into his bag.
That’s right, the trafficker just now was knocked unconscious by her.
Originally, Ye Qing was planning to capture the couple alive, but she didn't expect Yin Shuang to interfere, making it impossible for her to continue with her original plan without being noticed, so she could only hide in her position and wait for an opportunity to act.
Unexpectedly, the woman reacted quickly. After realizing the danger, she jumped out of the window directly, leaving Ye Qing with no time to take action.
But this man, without knowing the consequences, took Li Juan hostage and happened to stand in the aisle next to Ye Qing's seat. Didn't he give Ye Qing a chance to launch a sneak attack?
Ye Qing's flying needle technique was learned from an old professor of traditional Chinese medicine at Tongzhou Hospital.
When the apocalypse just began, she was recruited to Tongzhou Hospital to start her general practice internship. During one consultation, she encountered a patient who was out of control due to the death of a family member and stabbed someone.
When the patient was about to stab an old professor of traditional Chinese medicine, Ye Qing resolutely rushed forward and pushed the professor away, resulting in a severe cut on the shoulder by the patient.
The old professor later passed on his unique acupuncture skills to her.
However, Ye Qing was rather stupid and could not learn it at first. It took her three years to learn the basic skill of shooting silver needles through the air with one hand. It was not until she awakened her wood-type supernatural power that she was finally able to use it as an aid and master this skill.
Later, as Ye Qing's supernatural powers gradually became stronger, her flying needle skills became more and more proficient. Within three to five meters, she could almost hit the target with absolute accuracy and penetrate deep into the wood.
After coming to this world, her wood-related abilities upgraded faster than before, and her flying needle skills naturally did not fall behind either.
However, in this era, it is not so easy to get silver needles, so before going to the countryside, Ye Qing bought a large box of sewing needles from the supply and marketing cooperative, preparing to use them when he needs to use the flying needle technique after arriving in the countryside.
What Ye Qing didn't expect was that this box of silver needles would come in handy before he even arrived in the countryside.
Flying needle is a special skill evolved from acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine. It is usually used to save lives and has limited killing power. However, in this situation, it can also kill people without leaving any trace.
However, this trafficker has other gangs behind him. If he is killed, the clues will be cut off. Only by capturing him alive can we follow the clues and catch the remaining gangs in one fell swoop. That's why Ye Qing didn't kill him, but chose to knock him out.
Ye Qing looked at the vendor who had fainted on the ground, a slight smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
It seems that even though she has a new body, she is still as good as ever.
A sewing needle was inserted directly into the anus of the head. She knew the right amount of force and could at least make the man dizzy for half an hour.
This is enough time for the police to clean up the mess.
Ye Qing's calculation was correct. At the call of his companion, several other people with red armbands came quickly. After arriving at the carriage, after listening to their colleague's brief explanation of the situation, they quickly began to deal with the scene.
He first checked on Li Juan's condition and after making sure the hostages were okay, he picked up the two children who were thrown on the ground and on the seat to check on them.
"Is the child okay?" A passenger immediately asked anxiously.
Several policemen picked up the two children and felt their breath. They also undressed them and examined them carefully. After the inspection, the tense expressions on their faces relaxed a lot, and they immediately explained to the passengers in a soothing manner:
"The child is fine. He probably just fell into a coma due to the Chinese medicine. He will wake up soon!"
After hearing this, everyone's hearts were relieved.
The train only stopped in Pingxian for about twenty minutes, and by then most of the time had passed, and the passengers outside were immediately swarming back onto the train.
In order to avoid panic, the train police did not stay in the carriage after finding nothing unusual inside. Several of them directly took the vendor and his two children away.
As soon as the people left, the passengers in the carriage all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. This was mainly because what had just happened was too scary, with guns and daggers, which made everyone terrified and creepy.
Among them, Li Juan's reaction was the most intense. After surviving the disaster, she sat on the ground for a long time. When she slowly came to her senses, she felt terrified and panicked, and sat on the ground crying uncontrollably.
Yin Shuang stood there feeling guilty and embarrassed. She wanted to say something, but she knew that whatever she said at this moment would only annoy Li Juan.
After all, her action of pushing Li Juan out to protect her was really not very kind.
But Yin Shuang was still defending herself in her heart.
She was in a panic at that time and pushed Li Juan out completely unconsciously. It was not intentional. After she realized what was going on, she felt very regretful, okay?
But at that time, Li Juan was already in the hands of the traffickers. What could she do? She couldn't just stand up and ask the traffickers to exchange hostages and deliver herself to them, right?
If anyone is to be blamed, it is only Li Juan herself who has no foresight. In such a dangerous situation, she insisted on sitting by the aisle. If she had realized the danger earlier and hid under the seat, or simply swapped seats with Ye Qing, then wouldn't Ye Qing be the unlucky person?
Fortunately, Ye Qing didn't have the ability to read minds. Otherwise, if she knew what Yin Shuang was thinking at this moment, she would probably jump up and curse: Hetui! Bad luck!
As the red armbands swept away, bells and whistles rang on the platform. The passengers who had been watching the monkey show realized that the departure time was approaching and turned around and ran back to the train.
The old lady finally came back to her senses from her excitement, and remembered that she had left something behind before getting off the car to see the excitement, so she ran back to the car anxiously to look for her grandson.
But what she didn't expect was that after returning to the car, she couldn't find the peasant couple who breastfed her grandson.
The old lady's face turned pale instantly, and she collapsed to the ground, slapping her thigh and crying:
"Where is my grandson? Has anyone seen my eldest grandson? My grandson is missing!"
The passengers who stayed in the car and witnessed the thrilling confrontation between police and criminals were all speechless when they saw the old woman, and they couldn't help rolling their eyes.
What kind of person is this? Just for the sake of watching the excitement, he is so heartless as to leave a two-year-old child to a stranger. Now he is here crying and looking for his grandson. What were he doing before?
Yin Shuang, on the other hand, had a really strong recovery ability. She had calmed down after being chased by the male trafficker with a knife. She even took the initiative to step forward and explain to the old lady what had just happened.
"Don't cry, old lady. Your grandson is fine."
"The couple who were breastfeeding your grandson were human traffickers. They were planning to get off the train during the chaos and take your grandson away, but I happened to see them. I shouted and called the conductor."
"The police have caught the trafficker, and your grandson is saved! The child is now being taken away by the flight attendant for inspection, and he is not lost!"
Yin Shuang's words were very well said, and she deliberately emphasized her contribution. If you didn't know, you would really think that she played a crucial role here.
Little did she know that if she hadn't shouted that loudly in order to take credit, with Ye Qing's ability, he would have deliberately captured both of them without anyone noticing, and the subsequent incident would not have happened at all.
But Ye Qing couldn't explain this, and was too lazy to explain it.
She just watched in silence as Yin Shuang exaggerated her achievements. The passengers in the carriage who had just experienced the accident followed suit and praised Yin Shuang for her keen observation and extraordinary courage.
When the old lady heard that her grandson was bewitched by a peddler, she immediately became furious and started cursing, cursing the two peddlers' ancestors for eighteen generations. Then she was extremely grateful to Yin Shuang, the "benefactor" who saved her grandson. Not only did she pull Yin Shuang to bow and thank her repeatedly, she also apologized in various ways for occupying Yin Shuang's seat in front of her.
After that, the old lady hurriedly went to the train conductor to ask for her child.
Yin Shuang successfully took away Ye Qing's credit and got the attention and praise she wanted. She couldn't help but turn her head and smile meaningfully at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing didn't even spare him a glance.
The train started again and slowly drove out of Pingxian County. However, the old beggar who performed monkey shows on the platform had disappeared without a trace.
Ye Qing's attention shifted from the window back to the group of passengers inside the carriage who had just got off the train and seen the excitement.
She was waiting to see when these people would realize that they had fallen into the trap of the old beggar who performed monkey tricks.
About ten or twenty minutes later, after the passengers had listened with great interest to the big news about the human traffickers kidnapping children and taking hostages in the carriage, they returned to their seats. Only then did someone finally realize that his bag had been slashed.
Then, there were shouts and cries one after another, various thefts occurred, and many people had their money and tickets stolen!
Some educated youth even burst into tears in anger in the car:
"My money is gone too! It was two hundred and fifty yuan, the resettlement allowance given to me by the Revolutionary Committee, and it was all stolen!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole carriage fell silent. No one had ever seen such a large sum of money before, and their eyes almost popped out of their heads in shock!
Ye Qing was almost speechless.
An estimated one-third of the train's passengers were educated youth who had gone to work in the countryside. Some boarded in Shanghai, and some at other stations. Among these people, only a small number were going to Wusong City like Ye Qing, but most of them probably got off at the stations where the train stopped, and then dispersed to go to other cities across the country.
According to the current policy, anyone who went to work in the countryside would receive resettlement fees, usually ranging from two hundred to three hundred yuan. The resettlement fee given by Shanghai was two hundred and fifty yuan per person, which was a considerable sum in that era. For some families with poor conditions, the total savings of the whole family might not be that much.
But now, this person actually said that his resettlement fee for going to the countryside was taken away by someone. He is really heartless.
If you take a few hundred dollars on a train, don't you have to find a way to hide it, or even go to the trouble to divide it into several places?
This guy is so good, he just puts such a large sum of money in his pocket. Who else will the thief steal from if not you?
The man was still crying and shouting that he wanted to call the police.
Ye Qing just shook his head as he watched.
It was obvious that those beggars and pickpockets were working in gangs. They ran away immediately after they succeeded. Now the train has left the station. How can we possibly recover their money?
There were many people who lost money in the carriage, and everyone followed suit, some even threatening to ask the police to search the luggage of everyone in the carriage, and suspected that the pickpocket was on the train.
But before the train attendant came over, commotion broke out in other carriages. The large-scale theft on the entire train finally attracted everyone's attention, and some people belatedly realized what had happened.
"Damn it, it must be that monkey trainer. We were watching those monkeys perform when the money was stolen!"
After the train crew learned about this situation, they would definitely pay attention to it. After all, this was not a trivial matter. Immediately, people with red armbands came with notebooks to register information. The person who lost money had to report the amount of stolen property and the name. If the police station at the railway bureau investigated the theft case and recovered the stolen money, they would return the property to the owners.
Some are anxious and immediately ask when the case can be solved.
But who can be sure of such a thing? What if the thief gang no longer appears in Ping County and changes its name to go somewhere else? Who can find out?
In short, although the red armbands said they were serious and responsible, this case is not their responsibility. It still has to be reported to the local authorities and resolved by Ping County. Therefore, the final result will definitely be a long way off, and these owners will probably have to wait.
The passengers who got off the bus were regretting not joining in the fun, while the passengers who did not get off the bus were secretly glad that they did not follow the trend, otherwise they might have become one of the thieves.
The only one who regretted not continuing was Li Juan.
She didn't have much money on her, so she hid it all under her shoes, so pickpockets couldn't steal it when she got off the bus.
Because she had diarrhea and couldn't move, she was forced to stay in the car.
Not only did he fail to see the monkey's tricks, he was even taken hostage by traffickers and nearly lost his life.
This made Li Juan so angry. When she thought about how this unprovoked disaster was caused by that little bitch Yin Shuang, she felt even more resentful in her heart.

If the police wanted to return the child to his parents, they would have to pry the information about the child's parents from the human traffickers. It would probably be difficult to find out the truth in a short period of time.

Ye Qing didn't take it to heart. She didn't have breakfast in the morning, so when it was time for lunch she couldn't wait to stand up and walk to the restaurant.
As a result, she met a little girl of about twelve or thirteen years old at the connection between the carriages after just passing through one carriage.
