Upon hearing the lookout's words, the masked mastermind refused without hesitation: "No need for now. This time, I want to test how much they're worth."
Upon hearing Lao Wu mention that he was going to evaluate the goods, the lookout's face immediately showed envy, and he secretly realized why Lao Wu hadn't let him touch them earlier.
She inwardly cursed Old Wu for being stingy and not letting her touch him for a moment, but when she thought about how she still needed Old Wu as her cash cow, she could only smack her lips and give up.
Money is much more real than women.
The masked mastermind swaggered into the village with them, and Ye Qi was forced to endure the lecherous gazes of the group of burly, wrinkled men.
Even worse, some people came up, squinting and looking at him with ill intent, their faces full of smugness: "Old Wu, how many coins are in such good stuff?"
The man rushed forward and tried to touch Ye Qi's hand, but Ye Qi calmly dodged, controlling the masked mastermind to stand in front of her and block the malice: "Go away, go away, is this what you think? Old Li, let me tell you straight! You can't afford it, next time, I'll find you a cheap and affordable woman!"
Old Wu screamed inwardly, "Aaaaaah! Slander!!"
Upon hearing this, the man called Old Li had no choice but to leave dejectedly, but he kept glancing back at Ye Qi and Jiang Yihuan, even licking his lips, his cloudy eyes filled with lustful reverie, as if he were fantasizing about something dirty.
Some of the women, their faces tanned and wrinkled, shook their wrinkled skin with displeasure at the men's gazes: "Pah. Naturally seductive vixens, all they do is seduce men."
Upon seeing the other two boys, her eyes lit up, and she quickly changed the subject, "Wow, these two young men are really handsome, much better looking than the two in front."
The woman tried to touch him, but seeing Ji Sinan's disgusted expression, she lost her temper and forcibly reached out, only to be grabbed by someone controlled by Ye Qi.
The woman, after being caught, asked in bewilderment, "Hey! You silly boy, why are you grabbing your mother?"
The man forced a smile and said, "Mother, Father is watching over there! Aren't you afraid he'll find out?"
The woman glared at him, then noticed her husband staring at her menacingly, and reluctantly let go.
Ye Qi was worried that staying here too long might cause unforeseen problems, so she had someone quickly take them home.
Under her control, the masked mastermind, Lao Wu, closed the door and then untied them.
Ye Qi moved her hands, which were sore from being tied up for too long, and glanced at the condition of the house. It was much better than other brick and tile buildings, so it seemed that Old Wu had indeed made a lot of money.
To prevent Lao Wu from shouting for help, Ye Qi deliberately suppressed his voice. Unless she controlled him, Lao Wu could not speak freely.
Jisnan said indignantly, "Damn it! Those people are absolutely disgusting! I wanted to get you guys out of here right away!"
Jiang Yihuan looked down at the row of human traffickers kneeling in disdain.
"What do you usually do with the people you arrest?"
Old Wu turned his head away and refused to speak. When Ye Qi moved, Old Wu stared at his mouth and muttered to himself, "The men are kept in the village. At the beginning of each month, someone will come to collect them and take their organs."
"Women are sold to men in the village to be their wives."
"The child was taken to sell as meat."
Upon hearing this, Jisnan was furious and wanted to beat them up again on the spot, but when he thought about how he was currently in the middle of their group, right under the noses of those villagers, he couldn't act rashly.
He could only grit his teeth and suppress the anger in his heart.
Jisnan spoke in a low voice, suppressing his anger: "You damned bastards!"
Wen Mingzhi glared at them, his clenched fists bulging with veins, but his immediate priority was to extract more information: "Where did the two boys you arrested go?"
Under Ye Qi's control, Old Wu could only tell the truth: "I don't know who you're talking about!"
Ye Qi described the appearance and clothing of Ye Shuli and another boy.
Old Wu then vaguely remembered: "These two people weren't arrested by us, they were arrested by another group."
Ye Qi's eyelids twitched after hearing this.
"So you mean you're not just one gang?"
Old Wu: "Yes."
Old Wu screamed in despair, "Damn that mouth of yours!!! What the hell did it say?! It's ruined me!"
Ye Qi continued, "Where do you hide the boys?"
Old Wu answered truthfully, "In the cellar of the vegetable garden behind the village."
Where are the girls?
"Most of them were sold to marry women in the village and have sons. Some that we didn't have time to sell are still in the cellar."
Is the cellar guarded?
"have."
"several?"
"two."
Old Wu and the others were internally screaming: "Aaaaaah!!! Why did we tell her everything!!! We're doomed, we're doomed!!"
But when they thought that everyone in the village was one of their own, and that this was a desolate place with only their village inhabited, they figured they couldn't possibly run away!
Having extracted useful information, Jiang Yihuan knocked all of them unconscious.
They started lip-syncing, speaking as slowly as possible to make it easier to read and to avoid being overheard.
Ye Qi (lip movements): "There's more than one gang here. Going there during the day would alert them."
Jiang Yihuan (lip movements): "Go there tonight."
Jisnan (lip movements): "There are two people guarding the cellar, just in case they tip us off."
Wen Mingzhi (lip movements): "I brought this."
Wen Mingzhi pulled a replica gun and two smoke grenades from his pocket.
Wen Mingzhi had taken it back from the van when the group wasn't looking.
Ye Qi: "?"
Jiang Yihuan: "?"
Jisnan: "?"
Wen Mingzhi (lip movements): "This gun is equipped with tranquilizer darts, enough to knock out an elephant, three shots in total."
