There was still one day left before returning, and Shen Yunshu thought that since he had come here with great difficulty, he wanted to bring some local specialties of Qiongdao for the elderly and children at home.
Shen Yunshu's idea coincided with Shen's mother's. The two got up early to go shopping, and Gu Jiuyan and Shen's father followed behind them as bag carriers.
Chen Yunshu and his companions went to the countryside to collect some dried bananas, pineapples, and jackfruits that the team members had sun-dried. They also asked the local fishermen for some dried seafood, such as scallops, dried cuttlefish, squid slices, and dried shrimps...
I bought two big bags of things.
Fortunately, they didn't bring too much luggage with them. Apart from a few sets of clothes, they had nothing else, so they could take the seafood they bought with them.
Chen Yunshu also bought a bag of fresh mangoes, specially selecting those with green skin so that they would not spoil easily on the way. When he got home, he put them together with the apples and kept them covered before eating.
Gu Jiuyan thought that his wife loved drinking coconut water, so he climbed up the coconut tree, picked a few coconuts and put them in his bag.
The next day, Shen Yunshu and his friends checked out early, then ran to the pier carrying large and small packages to catch the ferry.
Shen Yunshu took motion sickness medicine two hours in advance, just like before she came, but when she got on the ferry, her face turned pale and her stomach felt uncomfortable and she wanted to vomit.
After a long period of worry from the family, the ship finally docked, and Shen's mother helped Shen Yunshu get off the ferry.
Gu Jiuyan and Shen's father helped carry the luggage.
Shen Yunshu sat on the ground without feeling disgusted. Gu Jiuyan opened the military water bottle he carried with him and fed Shen Yunshu water.
After a few sips of water, the burning sensation in Shen Yunshu's stomach eased a lot. He sat there and rested for a while, waiting for the energy to subside. Then they continued to take the bus.
Shen Yunshu and his companions boarded a long-distance bus and headed for Jiang City's railway station. There were live chickens and ducks on the bus, and the smell of chicken and duck droppings filled the entire carriage.
Shen Yunshu's head ached from the pungent and strong smell of shit. She was sitting by the window and couldn't stand the smell, so she quickly stuck her head out of the window to breathe in the fresh air.
When they arrived at the place, Shen Yunshu rushed out of the car with his heavy luggage.
At this moment, she felt like she was alive again.
Gu Jiuyan and the other two also got on and off the long-distance bus carrying their things. Seeing Shen Yunshu's pale face, their hearts were filled with heartache.
It was still early for the train to depart, so they went to a state-owned restaurant not far from the station to eat a bowl of noodles and ordered a few freshly-baked meat buns to take away.
As soon as they left the state-owned hotel, Shen Yunshu and his friends were pestered by a dirty kid.
"Brother and sister, grandpa and grandma, I haven't eaten for several days. Can you give me something to eat?"
There were many kidnappers near the train station, and Shen Yunshu's first reaction was that the child in front of him was abducted by human traffickers, who forced him to beg for food and money from strangers.
In modern times, human traffickers often do this. They will chop off the arms and legs of children and use their physical disabilities to attract the sympathy of passers-by.
Shen Yunshu stopped the kind-hearted Shen's mother from getting angry and turned to look at the little boy in front of him: "Where are your parents?"
"I...I...my mom and dad..." The little boy couldn't answer and looked to the left with some fear.
Shen Yunshu followed his gaze and saw a man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks staring at them, and he immediately understood what was going on.
When the man with a pointed chin and monkey face met Shen Yunshu's eyes, a creepy feeling of fear spread all over his body, and he ran away immediately in fear.
"Gu Jiuyan, there's something wrong with that man. Catch him quickly."
After Shen Yunshu finished speaking, Gu Jiuyan threw down the luggage in his hand and ran in the direction the man fled.
Shen Yunshu saw the fear of the little guy in front of her, and took out a coconut candy, a specialty of Qiongdao, from her pocket. She peeled off the candy wrapper and stuffed the candy into his mouth.
"Don't be afraid, little one. I will protect you."
With a cry of "Wow"... the little guy who had been frightened for many days burst into tears. He hugged Shen Yunshu's legs and cried non-stop.
Seeing him crying so sadly, Shen Yunshu no longer remembered about his mysophobia. She held the little guy in her arms and coaxed him again and again.
It took a lot of effort to coax the little guy.
Gu Jiuyan also caught the man and came back at this time. The man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks was beaten black and blue, several of his teeth were missing, and his mouth was full of blood.
Without thinking, you know that this is Gu Jiuyan's masterpiece.
The little guy in Shen Yunshu's arms trembled when he saw the bad guy. Fortunately, Shen Yunshu noticed that something was wrong with him in time, and comforted him gently, barely calming the little guy's emotions.
The noise here was so loud that everyone around them looked over at them. Shen Yunshu explained calmly:
"This man is a human trafficker. The child in my arms was abducted by him."
The three words "human trafficker" exploded in the crowd, and everyone looked at the pointed-mouthed and monkey-faced man at Gu Jiuyan's feet with hatred.
He succeeded in arousing public outrage.
Some activists had already kicked people, others were pulling their hair, ears and slapping them. People tend to follow the crowd, and in a moment, they all rushed forward.
Gu Jiuyan was worried that innocent people would be harmed, so he asked his wife and father-in-law to step aside.
The man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks was beaten so badly that he couldn't utter a word, and finally fainted from the pain.
Gu Jiuyan dragged the half-dead human trafficker, and Shen Yunshu held the dirty little guy in his arms, and the two headed towards the Public Security Bureau.
Shen's father and mother stayed behind to look after the luggage, as they had to take the train back later.
When they arrived at the Public Security Bureau, Gu Jiuyan threw the man to the ground in disgust and briefly explained what happened at the train station in the shortest possible sentences.
In addition, Gu Jiuyan showed the ID he carried with him to the staff of the Public Security Bureau.
The Public Security Bureau immediately took the matter seriously. The human trafficker, who was beaten half to death, was handcuffed and taken to the next room for interrogation.
As for the little girl in Shen Yunshu's arms, Shen Yunshu safely handed her over to the female police officer in the room.
When the little guy saw that his beautiful sister didn't want him anymore, the fear and anxiety in his heart surged up again, and he burst into tears at the top of his lungs.
The female police officer was also confused and looked at Shen Yunshu at a loss.
Shen Yunshu took a deep breath and said in a slow tone:
"Little guy, the police uncle and the police sister are good people. They will help you find your parents. I have to rush to catch the train. When we meet next time, I will make you something delicious, okay?"
“…Mom and Dad… I want Mom and Dad…”
"We are good children. Good children shouldn't cry. Others will laugh at you if they see you crying..."
In the magical voice of Shen Yunshu, the little guy stopped crying and looked at Shen Yunshu in front of him with his big watery eyes.
If we don’t leave now, it will be too late to take the bus. Shen Yunshu took out a handful of coconut candies from his pocket and stuffed them into the little guy’s pocket: “If you miss your sister, just eat a candy. I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.”
After saying that, Shen Yunshu took Gu Jiuyan's hand and ran away quickly.
