Chapter 1672 Meng Yunzheng Picked a Girl
The bandit laughed and walked forward.
Shu Yu lagged two steps behind and stood next to Meng Yunzheng, asking, "Who was that person just now?"
"Tao's younger brother."
Shu Yu's eyes widened suddenly. The Tao family had been captured and brought to this black market early this morning?
She recalled what Tao Feili had just said and asked in a low voice, "Is my uncle's arrest related to him?"
"Most likely."
Shu Yu glanced back and asked hesitantly, "Should we find an opportunity to ask him about the specifics?"
Meng Yunzheng initially thought the same thing, but after seeing Tao Feili so frightened that he wet his pants, he gave up the idea.
The black market was fraught with danger; they treaded carefully with every step, fearing discovery.
Someone like Tao Feili would probably start yelling and attract attention as soon as you ask him a couple of questions.
If he recognizes them, he might grasp at this rare lifeline; if he doesn't, he might destroy it and expose their whereabouts.
At this critical juncture, Meng Yunzheng did not want to take any risks.
"Let's see how things go first. If there's really no other way, then we'll contact him."
Shu Yu nodded and didn't say anything more.
They followed the bandits further in; the path was indeed quite long.
"The last cell is just ahead. It's full of women, so you shouldn't find the person you're looking for there," the bandit said, continuing to walk inside.
When he came in, he told the gatekeeper that he was looking for a woman. Even though it was just an excuse, he still wanted to take a look.
Shu Yu was a little puzzled, "Why are the women locked up in the innermost part?"
The bandit chuckled. "Naturally, it's to intimidate them. Some girls are just restless. They work well in the black market, have food and drink, and if they do well, they can even get favored by the manager and get separate accommodations. But some people just don't know what's going on and try to leave. Let them see what happens to those who try to escape from here."
Every day on their way back to their cells, these girls would pass by the cells in front of them and see the miserable state of the inmates.
The black market managers wanted to show them how terrible the consequences would be for those who disobeyed.
Shu Yu pursed her lips and remained silent.
Before long, they were standing outside a cell.
There were four or five cells holding the women, and the conditions were better than before. They even had large communal sleeping areas and wardrobes for them to use. Perhaps it was so that they could dress up a bit and not look too bad when they got out.
However, at this moment they were all leaning on the communal bed, without any makeup or fancy clothes, and their haggard and thin faces could not be hidden at all.
These girls have clearly suffered terribly.
Not to mention, the cell has walls on three sides, but the front is just an empty wooden bar, offering absolutely no privacy.
Shu Yu felt so frustrated that she could hardly breathe.
Just as she turned her head, Meng Yunzheng, who was beside her, suddenly reached out and pulled her.
She was startled, and when she turned around, she heard Meng Yunzheng point at a young girl in the cell and say, "You, come out and have some fun with us."
Shu Yu, “…” Huh??
Even the bandits nearby were stunned. They thought the bandits were just there for a short visit and would leave after a few moments.
What, is he really planning to call a girl out to keep him company?
Wasn't there a girl with him? Tsk, this guy doesn't seem as upright as he appears.
