Chunxiao and the others were very happy as they finally found the child. However, after the officers and soldiers came back, they learned that the human traffickers' carriage had run away.
But now that we know their base, it's like we have another clue. From this point of view, this group of people are the ones who kidnapped Yan Qi and others. This group of people has been entrenched in this place and must have done a lot of such things. If we don't catch them, they will probably harm more people.
Fang and the others rushed over and when they saw Erchu, they hugged him and burst into tears.
Xiao Fang pulled him and said, "I told you to follow me closely and not to walk around casually. You didn't listen, and I almost didn't see you." Xiao Fang cried so sadly.
The cries of several families instantly merged into one.
The official was not angry with them, thinking that these people had just been found, so if they wanted to cry, let them cry as much as they wanted.
When they finally stopped crying, the headman came out and everyone knelt down.
"Alright, everyone's been busy all night, worried and terrified. Let's take the children home to rest. They're exhausted. The town entrance has been reopened. Learn from this lesson and keep a close eye on your children."
"Thank you, sir!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"Miss Yan, please stay." The pavilion chief kept Chunxiao.
Yan Bingfa and the others looked over worriedly.
The pavilion chief smiled and said, "Nothing, I just need Miss Yan's help with something. I can leave after a few words."
"Dad, please wait for me outside." Chunxiao followed the headman to the living room.
The pavilion chief frowned slightly as he looked at her. "Have I seen Miss Yan before? She seems familiar."
Chun Xiao smiled and said, "Many years ago, the head of the pavilion did justice for the common woman. It's just been a long time. I didn't expect that the head of the pavilion still remembered it."
The head of the pavilion laughed when he heard this. "So that's how it is. No wonder it looks familiar to me. I heard from the detectives that today's events are all thanks to you. This incident has a huge impact. If we don't find these children and arrest these people, I'm afraid people will be uneasy."
"Sir, if the officers refuse to acknowledge their contributions, we dare not claim them either. They worked all night searching for someone yesterday. They are a blessing to Sanye Town. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be able to find the person today."
The officers and soldiers guarding the door straightened their backs, feeling quite proud.
"I heard that the girl is good at painting portraits. I wonder who her teacher is?" He looked at the painting. The children he saw today were so lifelike. He had never seen such realistic paintings before.
"I came up with this painting on my own. I practiced it by drawing randomly when I had nothing to do."
The head of the pavilion laughed when he heard this. "I didn't expect he was self-taught. I really admire him. Now that this person has escaped, it is always a hidden danger. If they make a comeback in another place, the town will be in turmoil again. The person who inquired about the situation has returned. The other party's house is rented, and the tenant's information is difficult to find. I heard that you have seen one of them. I wonder if Miss Yan can draw a portrait of that person? Once the person is found, the township government will definitely reward you handsomely."
Chun Xiao thought of the man with the mole on his face. "Tingzhang, this is what we ordinary people should do. However, I only met that man once. I need to go back and think about it carefully. If I can draw it, I will send it to you when the time comes."
"Of course, that girl must think twice when she returns. Catching these people will be a boon to the village."
When Chunxiao walked out of the township government gate, several households outside had not left yet, and were waiting for her to come out and thank her.
"Everyone, please don't be polite. Take the children back quickly. I think they've been tossed around quite a bit. Go back and give them some proper counseling. They must be terrified."
Then everyone took their children and left.
"What does the captain want you to do?" Yan Dashan asked.
"The man ran away and wasn't caught. He wants me to help draw a portrait of the man he saw. I have some paper, ink, and other things at the inn. Let's quickly grab the things and go back. My family must be worried sick."
"Yes, yes, let's go back quickly. His grandfather and his father must be very worried."
"Mom, I'm hungry." Erchu was still listless.
"Wait, grandma will buy you two meat buns. Didn't you eat last night? You bunch of heartless people, they don't even feed me a bite of food!" Fang cursed anxiously and hurried to the bun stall.
"Now that we've found the child, I'm finally at peace." Yan Bing laughed. "I won't come next time when there are so many people. I was almost scared to death."
"I wasn't scared to death." Xiao Fang smiled bitterly, "If Erchu hadn't been fine, I'm afraid my life would be over."
"Grandpa, Dad, how about I go to the carriage shop to get a carriage, and then pick you up at the inn? But with so many of us, I'm afraid we won't be able to fit all of us in one trip."
"Go ahead. When you're all seated, we can walk the rest of you back. I haven't walked in a while, and my legs aren't as nimble as they used to be."
Fang quickly bought the buns. She bought a large bag and gave two to each person present. "Thanks to you this time, otherwise we would have no way out. I'll thank you when I get back."
"Sister Fang, our two families are so close, we will definitely not sit idly by if something happens to your family, so there's no need to be so polite."
"If my mother knew you were so polite, she would say something to you." Chunxiao smiled.
"Let's put it this way. I know the difference between the important and the unimportant. Anyway, I'm grateful." Fang looked at Chunxiao. "Everyone in the village says you're blessed, and I think it's true. You saved me from such a dangerous situation. You don't know that last night I thought I wouldn't want to live if I couldn't find you. You saved Aunt Fang's life."
