"After three days and two nights, I will definitely marinate it well."
Seeing his wife looking so pitiful with slightly red eyes, Sheng Zexi felt very distressed.
Touching her hair, he said softly, "Okay, I'll boil water for you to take a bath as soon as I get back. I'll make sure you get a clean bath."
"Yeah." Gu Jianing felt better after getting Sheng Zexi's affirmative response.
Then Sheng Zexi took out a bed sheet, spread it on the upper bunk, helped Gu Jianing to sleep on it, and took out a quilt and covered her carefully.
"Go to sleep. I will stay down there and watch over you. I won't leave."
"good."
Gu Jianing was indeed sleepy. He got up early today, and the train was shaking, which made it easy for people to feel sleepy.
At this moment, his eyelids drooped and Gu Jianing fell asleep.
Gu Jianing slept for quite a long time.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already dark outside the train and the light inside the train was also dim.
"Awake?" As soon as she moved, Sheng Zexi, who had been paying attention to her, noticed it.
"Yeah." Gu Jianing stood up and came down.
Gu Jianing barely glanced at his watch in the dim light and found that it was already past seven in the evening.
The train was not that quiet at this time, but it was much quieter than during the day.
"Are you hungry? I just bought some buns. Eat some."
"Um."
After eating one bun, Gu Jianing couldn't eat anymore.
On the train filled with all kinds of odors, Gu Jianing felt nothing and looked listless.
After a few more hours, the light in the carriage became dimmer.
The noise that was unique to the daytime was gone, but...
Gu Jianing felt a little depressed listening to the snoring that came one after another. It was too noisy.
There was some resentment in Gu Jianing's eyes.
Sheng Zexi inexplicably understood what she meant.
He thought, it’s a good thing that he doesn’t snore, otherwise, even if he got into bed, he would be kicked off.
…
Two days and one night passed on the train.
At this moment, Gu Jianing was like a radish that had lost its water. She was wrinkled, dry, and listless, without any energy at all.
But luckily I didn't get carsick.
"I want to go to the bathroom." said Gu Jianing.
After a day or two of fermentation, the toilet became even stinkier, but there was nothing he could do. Gu Jianing had been holding it in as long as he could, but now, he couldn't hold it in any longer.
"good."
For Gu Jianing, going to the toilet on the train was as difficult as going through a battle.
After a long while, Gu Jianing finally came out of the toilet and felt like he had lost half his life.
Walking back with Sheng Zexi again, Gu Jianing, who looked a little depressed, was bumped into an old couple holding a child.
"I'm sorry, young lady. I'm sorry." The old lady said sorry, but when she saw Gu Jianing's face, a light flashed in her eyes.
The same was true of the old man next to her.
That kind of look made Gu Jianing feel unhappy for some reason, as if she was a commodity being ripped off and sold at a high price.
At this time, Sheng Zexi stood up and looked her up and down to see if there was anything wrong with her.
"I'm fine." Gu Jianing said.
When the two old men saw Sheng Zexi in military uniform, the light in their eyes suddenly dimmed. They lowered their heads in a hurry and even avoided Sheng Zexi.
Although ordinary people are naturally afraid of soldiers.
However, Gu Jianing, who had experienced a lifetime, still felt that their tiny changes in movements were a little strange.
That avoidance looked like the person was afraid of Sheng Zexi.
They don't know Sheng Zexi and have no grudge against him, so why would they be afraid of him?
At this moment, Gu Jianing's eyes fell on the olive green uniform of her husband, and an idea suddenly occurred to her. Yes, they might not be afraid of Sheng Zexi, but afraid of his identity as a soldier.
Who would be afraid of soldiers?
Of course, that person is a criminal.
So what crime did they commit?
Almost in an instant, Gu Jianing's eyes fell on the sleeping little girl, about three or four years old, in the old lady's arms.
Could it be a human trafficker?
Whether it was what the little girl was wearing or her darker skin that was exposed, she actually matched well with the old couple and there was nothing out of place.
Give it a try.
So, when they were about to pass by each other, Gu Jianing's eyes fell on the little girl.
In the beautiful almond-shaped eyes, the light of the super scanner flashed and quickly scanned the little girl.
[Ding, scanning is completed!] 】
[Gender: Female Age: 3 years and 4 months Physical condition: slightly malnourished, drugged for more than 20 minutes...]
There was a lot of diagnostic introduction later, but Gu Jianing was no longer interested in reading it.
She only focused on the four words "drug-induced". At this moment, there was nothing she didn't understand.
This old couple are human traffickers. Which grandpa or grandma would drug their granddaughter?
"Brother Xi, those two people are human traffickers. I smelled it. The child the old lady was holding was drugged. He must have been abducted." After walking a short distance, Gu Jianing whispered to Sheng Zexi.
Sheng Zexi's expression suddenly became serious, and he said, "Actually, I also think that something is not quite right with them."
Although the old couple behaved normally, Sheng Zexi's natural intuition as a soldier told him that something was wrong with them.
He was planning to find time to check the situation later, but unexpectedly Ningning told him that she suspected they were human traffickers.
"Brother Xi, what should we do? We must catch the human trafficker and save the child." Perhaps because he wanted a child all his life in his previous life but never had one, Gu Jianing is obsessed with children and hates human traffickers who abduct children.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like if she had a child and it was abducted by human traffickers.
She would definitely break down.
"Ningning, I'll go back with you first. I'll take care of this matter. Believe me, I will catch them."
Gu Jianing looked at Sheng Zexi's determined eyes and nodded.
Sheng Zexi sent Gu Jianing to her seat, asked Shen Huaiyuan and Bai Juan to help look after her, and told her not to leave her seat no matter what happened, then left.
Ever since Sheng Zexi left, Gu Jianing began to feel restless and worried about the situation.
But she also knew that the only thing she could do was to listen to him, stay away from him, and not cause trouble.
I don’t know how long it had been, but Gu Jianing suddenly heard a commotion in the carriage behind, and then the whole carriage became even more lively.
Not long after, she heard someone talking about human traffickers.
Gu Jianing's heart skipped a beat. Did he catch him?
Soon, she saw that the carriage she was in was in commotion.
Two staff members on the train were holding the elderly couple, and another staff member was holding the child.
Sheng Zexi is back too.
As Sheng Zexi sat down, those people walked away. Gu Jianing looked at him with bright eyes, "I caught him!"
