Chapter 208 Gu Le Confesses to Rebirth
Gu Yin thought for a moment and smiled, "You're very clingy to me, not just a little bit! The way you look at me is always a little tender and caring. Sometimes the things you say don't quite fit your age and experience, so I guessed you must be like me. Do you know I'm back as soon as you see me? Also, how did you get back?"
Gu Yin sat down next to her older sister, leaned on the table, and said softly, "I don't know how I got back. After I died, I opened my eyes again and found myself in the traffickers' car. After Dad brought me out, I saw you with your head bleeding, and then I saw myself after being rescued. I had some guesses, but I wasn't sure. But then you didn't seem to bother to hide your difference, and that's when I knew."
She hadn't held back at all; she was simply herself! But Gu Le was dead? Gu Yin's hands on the table tightened: "You're dead? What happened?"
“I was rescued by Brother Yan, just half a month after you died in the car accident.”
Gu Yin was surprised: "Chu Yan saved you? How could that be?"
Gu Le nodded: "Actually, if you hadn't had the car accident, you probably would have found me that time, but it's very likely you wouldn't have been able to save him." At that time, half of the people in the town he was in were human traffickers, and the other half were either relatives of those traffickers or had been abducted.
"Brother Yan learned from my uncle that you had been looking for me. Afterwards, in order to repay the debt of gratitude, he used his connections and almost turned the whole country upside down. But because it had been so long, he couldn't find me for a while. He finally found me by looking at your chat history with your friend on your repaired phone and seeing that message."
However, because the matter was too serious and too egregious, Chu Yan had no choice but to search for Gu Le while simultaneously calling the police.
Gu Le was given special treatment, so he couldn't be found so easily. It wasn't until the town was swept away by armed forces, thousands of human traffickers were arrested, and more than 5,000 abducted women and children were rescued, that Gu Le was finally found.
Chu Yan's health wasn't very good to begin with, and after going through half a month of hardship, he managed to hold on for so long, but he fainted at the last step.
There were simply too many abducted people, and countless others like Gu Le were left disabled. The government couldn't handle them all at once, so they were all taken to local welfare homes and protected by the military.
Afterwards, the government gave them full-body checkups and compared their results with those in the DNA database. As a result, many of them were taken back by their families.
He still remembered that his home was in Lijia Village, Wanli Town, Nanxian County, Jiangshi City, Z Province. He told the police station his home information, but after they verified it, they found that "Gu Le" had been registered as dead in 2007. The signature was Gu Qingming. They also told Gu Le that only Gu Qingming was still on their family's household registration book, and everyone else was dead.
Gu Yin reached out and grabbed Gu Le: "Since you remember your home, why didn't you find a chance to escape? Also, your uncle didn't sign anything. He knows I've been looking for you and your older brother, but we haven't even met yet. How can he go back and sign anything?"
Gu Le patted Gu Yin: "I never gave up on saving myself. In the month before Brother Yan rescued me, I was still trying to save myself, but there were just too many people guarding me. No matter how I tried to escape, I couldn't get out. In the end, they cut off my hands, crippled one of my legs, and blinded one of my eyes. Sister, even after I was like that, I never gave up on escaping. I always believed that you would be looking for me somewhere! As for the signature on the death certificate, it was only after Brother Chu Yan's investigation that we found out that it was Li Genzi and Li Dashan who were behind it."
In the end, the two were also put in jail by Chu Yan. However, at that time, Li Dashan insisted that it was to get Gu Yin into the low-income household program. In order to get a spot for Gu Yin, he would do whatever was most miserable possible. And because Gu Yin was not at home, and Gu Qingming stubbornly disagreed, he signed the document without permission.
Gu Yin's tears fell straight down her cheeks as if they were free. She took a few deep breaths, then choked out, "And then?"
Gu Le handed her a piece of paper and comforted her with a smile, "It's all in the past. Aren't we doing fine now?"
"Later, Brother Chu Yan took me home. Because I needed treatment, I stayed in Haicheng. My uncle also came to take care of me. Brother Chu Yan hired the best medical team for me. After my injury was healed, he fitted me and my uncle with prosthetics! Later, he also hired a tutor to teach me knowledge, took me to a special school, and even taught me some financial and management knowledge."
Gu Yin sniffed: "Then how could you...?"
Gu Le smiled and said, "I was so badly injured, but thanks to Brother Yan's careful care, I lived for another five years. However, because I was given some unknown drugs while I was imprisoned, my body deteriorated too much. I couldn't hold on for five years and let Brother Yan down."
Gu Yin looked up, took a deep breath, and then pressed the paper to her nose: "Did he find the murderer?"
Gu Le shook her head: "No, the person behind this is hiding too well! Brother Yan has been investigating, but he hasn't found anything."
Gu Yin thought for a moment, then asked, "During the five years you were rescued, did you see any information about the Zhou family in Hong Kong?"
Gu Le nodded: "Yes, not long after I was rescued, Old Master Zhou and Old Madam Zhou were murdered while on vacation abroad. It was said that they were kidnapped by local armed reactionary forces. When the Zhou family sent money over, all they brought back were two corpses. It was such a pity. I heard that they had already boarded the ship and were preparing to return. No one expected that those people had already laid an ambush on the Zhou family's island. It shocked the whole world at the time!"
