The next day, Lin Xiaoxiao slept until she naturally woke up.
Han Qiushi asked for leave for both of them, and Captain Wang approved it without hesitation.
After Lin Xiaoxiao finished washing up, she found that Han Qiushi had already cooked rice and was keeping it warm in the pot. Han Qiushi returned after she ate breakfast.
After getting ready, the two rode their bicycles together to the county town.
After arriving in the county town, Han Qiushi first took Lin Nian to the park for a walk and bought two bottles of water, which they drank as they walked.
He also bought a lot of snacks, and then the two of them sat in the park, enjoying the envious glances of passing children, taking a bite of snacks and a sip of soda, which was very pleasant and comfortable.
One or two children were so envious of Lin Xiaoxiao's appearance that they asked their families for her. If they didn't get her, they would cry. If their parents spanked them, they would throw a tantrum.
Seeing the situation, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly packed up her things and pulled Han Qiushi away from the battlefield. The aunties and old men were staring at her like they were poisoned. The elderly and children were the ones she couldn't afford to mess with, so running away was the best option.
These days, many aunties and older women ask for things as soon as they open their mouths; I don't know how they even have the nerve to ask.
Shamelessness to the extreme.
Once they were far away, the two remembered how they had stirred up hatred in front of the child and started laughing.
Han Qiushi smiled, his eyes slightly narrowed.
He raised his hand and gently stroked the corner of Lin Xiaoxiao's mouth. Lin Xiaoxiao stopped moving, her smile vanished abruptly, and she even hiccuped.
Han Qiushi held up his hand for her to see, with crumbs of snacks Lin Xiaoxiao had just eaten on his fingertips. "I've already wiped them off for you."
Lin Xiaoxiao blinked, then laughed again. She asked Han Qiushi if there was any left on his face.
Han Qiushi shook his head to indicate no.
Then Lin Xiaoxiao took out a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped his fingers; this man's hands were truly long and slender.
There were quite a few calluses on her hands, and upon closer inspection, there were also many scars around them, but Lin Xiaoxiao still thought her hands were very beautiful.
After wiping his fingers, Lin Xiaoxiao also wiped her own hands.
Seeing this, Han Qiushi's eyes softened even more.
"Shall we go boating in the park?" Han Qiushi looked around and asked Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at it and said, "It seems like this won't last long."
Han Qiushi: "We're just going to experience it. The lake isn't so noisy, and you can eat however you want."
"Okay." The lake in the county park isn't very big, but the water is very clear now, so it's nice to take a couple of laps around.
"Go return the soda bottles, and wait for me here." Han Qiushi left with the empty bottles the two of them had finished drinking from, while Lin Xiaoxiao stood by the lake waiting.
Just then, she saw a middle-aged woman carrying a toddler who was a little over a year old walking quickly toward her. She didn't even notice the child's face contorted in pain. Some parents couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw this.
What's wrong with this mother? She's making the baby look so uncomfortable...
Lin Xiaoxiao was afraid of bumping into the woman, so she took two steps back, but when the woman passed by, she couldn't help but sniff her nose.
This taste...
Han Qiushi had already returned the bottle and was about to take Lin Xiaoxiao boating on the lake when he saw Lin Xiaoxiao walking quickly towards him.
Her expression was very serious...
Han Qiushi noticed the change in his expression and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"
Lin Xiaoxiao knew that Han Qiu had connections in the county town, and regardless of whether she had mistaken him for someone else, it would help her get away with it.
Human traffickers are very persuasive; they can often make the truth sound like a lie and the lie sound like the truth. I've heard that many people who stand up for them end up in trouble. With two people involved, they don't have to worry about not being able to take care of the children.
"There was a woman holding a child just now, and I suspect... she's a human trafficker," Lin Xiaoxiao briefly explained the situation.
Han Qiushi immediately analyzed the situation. The woman left in a hurry, so she must have had accomplices to meet her. Then the group would either take a train or a car.
If he's a repeat offender, he probably still has a hideout.
But it was absolutely impossible to sell the child in the county town. While waiting for Han Qiushi, Lin Xiaoxiao secretly used the instrument to scan the woman's data. As long as the woman was still in the county town, there was a chance.
"I don't know if I'm being too sensitive, or if I might be wrong." Lin Xiaoxiao only suspected the smell. There are many similar smells in the world, and in just a moment, no one can be sure that it's the smell of a drug.
"I trust you." Han Qiushi had absolute faith in Lin Xiaoxiao's judgment. With her amazing abilities and formidable combat strength, her intuition was terrifyingly accurate. Besides, the presence of the smell of sleeping pills in the park was suspicious in itself.
Lin Xiaoxiao curled the corners of her lips and said, "Let's think about how to proceed more thoroughly later."
Han Qiushi turned his head to look at Lin Xiaoxiao's profile and suddenly smiled.
He picked up a brick from a nearby corner and smashed it against the hard corner, breaking it in two instantly.
Seeing the bricks shorten instantly and increase in damage, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly laughed.
"You... this time, you really solved the problem at its root."
Han Qiushi laughed as well, "No matter how they try to justify themselves, no matter how eloquent they are, there's no point in reasoning with them."
"If there are many people, this can be a good tool."
......
According to Lin Xiaoxiao and the witnesses, they soon saw the middle-aged woman carrying an unconscious child. She turned left and right until she arrived at a small courtyard. Pushing open the wooden door, they saw that there wasn't much in the courtyard, but there was a reclining chair.
The two exchanged a glance and silently climbed onto the wall.
Lin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, her face dark as she looked at the three men who had suddenly emerged from the room.
The middle-aged woman also dropped her disguise, her eyes revealing a sinister glint.
"We've got enough people. Today's trip is too risky; we need to leave quickly," the middle-aged woman said.
The two of them subtly moved in the direction they were standing.
"Tsk, look at that kid savoring the tender meat, this adventure was worth it," one of the men said.
Lin Xiaoxiao clenched her fists.
While they were chatting and discussing, Han Qiushi suddenly threw the brick in his hand, hitting the man who had just spoken right on the head.
"Ah..." One of the men fell to the ground in response.
"who?"
Then, the two jumped into the yard together. Lin Xiaoxiao walked to a corner, picked out a piece of wood, and held it directly in her hand.
"They've come to deliver long-term meal tickets."
