Chapter 133 Jinjiang Debut
Officer Chen frowned. "Jiangnan people? Why would Jiangnan people come here to commit crimes? Okay, I get it. This is probably related to human trafficking. That's it. I'll hang up now. You continue to investigate and see if you can find more information."
When Magu, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, heard this, cold sweat ran down her forehead. She had a bad premonition in her heart. If the relatives of the abducted people really came to seek revenge, then her daughter would fall into their hands and would be disabled if not dead.
Xiao Chen looked back at Magu. The situation was urgent, so he took Magu into the interrogation room and began to interrogate her about her past crimes. In order to rescue her daughter as soon as possible, Magu recalled the crimes she had committed. She herself was from Jiangnan, and the first few crimes in her criminal career were committed in Jiangnan. However, it had been so long since then that she could no longer remember anything.
"How many times did you commit crimes in Jiangnan? Tell me clearly, don't change your mind. Was it four times or five times?!" Xiao Chen asked, slamming the table.
Magu was sweating profusely: "I...I really can't remember clearly, it seems to be four times, and it seems to be five times."
Xiao Chen asked, "You remember the names and faces of the victims, right? Where did you sell the children to after you kidnapped them?"
Magu wiped her sweat and said, "It happened eight hundred years ago. I have forgotten everything. I just started to commit crimes at that time. I had no experience. I kidnapped people from the local area and sold them to any family. As long as I paid, I would not contact them again after the sale. Do you think I am a customer service representative of Taobao and I want to provide after-sales service?"
Seeing that he could not get any information from Magu, Xiao Chen had to suspend the interrogation. At this moment, the team sent into the mountains called. They walked along the mountain path and saw the gray car at the end of the road. It was parked on the top of the mountain.
"Now that you have found them, catch them quickly!" Xiao Chen urged.
The colleague on the other end of the phone said embarrassment: "Brother Chen, the situation is a bit complicated. The car is parked on the edge of the cliff, and the front of the car has already been extended. If it moves a little, it will fall off the cliff. We dare not act rashly."
Xiao Chen's heart tightened: "Who is in the car?"
Colleague: "The kidnapper is sitting in the driver's seat. There is no one else in the car. The kidnapped girl should be in the trunk. Judging from this, the kidnapper wants to take the girl with him to die."
Xiao Chen immediately denied: "No, if she wanted to die together, she would have rushed down with the girl long ago. The reason she is still here is that she is waiting for something. Maybe she is waiting for us. She wants to negotiate with us."
Under Xiao Chen's command, colleagues took out a loud speaker and shouted to the kidnapper, expressing their willingness to negotiate with her.
The kidnapper turned around and took off her mask, revealing a weathered face. She looked at the police with dead eyes and made a request - she wanted to see Guo Xiuzhen.
Guo Xiuzhen is Magu. After some consideration, Officer Chen agreed to her request. He decided to take Magu up the mountain personally to negotiate with the kidnappers.
Before setting off, Bai Mian opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. Xiao Chen was a little surprised, but Bai Mian just smiled at him: "Don't worry, take me with you, I will help you."
Thinking about the last kidnapping case, it was Bai Mian who arrived in time with the rock climbing enthusiasts and rescued the hostages. Xiao Chen decided to trust Bai Mian once. He started the car and drove towards the mountains along the route in the surveillance camera.
It was already dusk when they reached the top of the mountain. The sunset was stained with blood. The gray car parked on the edge of the cliff was terrifying to look at.
The kidnapper was still sitting in the driver's seat, her hands tightly gripping the steering wheel. As long as the police made any move, she would drive the car off the cliff. The police did not dare to act rashly, and she did not move either. The two sides were in a stalemate for a long time.
The arrival of Xiao Chen and his group broke the silence. Two police officers escorted Magu out of the car. When she saw her daughter's situation, Magu immediately burst into tears:
"My Xinxin, she has never suffered such an injustice in her life. I beg you, please let her go immediately. No matter how I have offended you, it is our business as adults, not the children. The children are innocent. If you want to kidnap her, kidnap me. I am willing to be the hostage in place of Xinxin!"
Seeing Magu show up, the kidnapper finally turned back. She looked at Magu steadily and said, "Guo Xiuzhen, do you still recognize me?"
Magu stared at the woman for a long time before she recognized her face. She took a deep breath and said guiltily, "Cui, Cuiqin? How did you find yourself here?"
Xiao Chen secretly wondered: "How could it be Cuiqin? When we investigated the owner's information, didn't they say the owner was Qin Meihan?"
Bai Mian explained: "Cuiqin is her nickname, and only the villagers know it. If you listen to their accents, they are from the same place."
When Cuiqin heard Magu calling out her name, she showed an extremely disgusted expression on her face: "Oh, so you still remember me. Long time no see, fellow villager. You should have been doing well these years, right?"
Magu kept apologizing with a smile: "What's wrong with that? I just took a wrong road. Look at me, I've been caught by the police now. I deserve it. This is my retribution!"
Cuiqin sneered: "I heard that you have been doing very well these years, and you have become a big shot in the underworld. You have also sent your parents to a high-end nursing home in the capital. Do you know how I have been living these years?"
Magu pretended to be confused even though she knew the truth: "Hey, I haven't seen you for so many years, how would I know your situation? How are you now?"
Cuiqin's eyes widened, her eyes spitting fire: "You don't know? I think no one in this world knows better than you! Since you stole my son, I haven't had a good sleep! I am suffering in pain every day. I have traveled all over the country to find my child. I have gone bankrupt and sold all the fields in the village. I have been working while looking for him. I have asked in every street and alley. I want to die, but I dare not. I am afraid that my child is waiting for me in some corner of the world, so I can only grit my teeth and go on. Do you know this?"
Magu said shamelessly: "Ah, Cuiqin, you really misunderstood me. We are from the same village and we have a very good relationship. It was you who took me to the city to work. How could I steal your child?"
Cuiqin gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, at the beginning I saw that you were young, and I thought of you no matter what I did. When I went to the city to work, I also wanted to take you with me. I was so stupid, I let a wolf into the house! At that time, I rented a small house on the construction site and let you live there for free. I went out to work during the day and asked you to help me look after the child. But when I came back at night, you disappeared with the child!"
Magu immediately made up a story: "It's not my fault. I'm also a victim. I was taking your son out for a walk that day, and a van drove up on the side of the road and dragged me and the child into the car..."
Cuiqin interrupted her: "Shut up and stop making up those lies! Other villagers saw it that day. It was you who sneakily took the child away! Later, I asked all the nearby towns and villages, and some people said they saw you that day. You were holding a child and went door to door asking if anyone wanted to buy the child. With so many witnesses, what else can you say? Besides, if you didn't do it, why would you be arrested by the police now?"
Seeing that her excuse was not working, Magu came up with a new way to deal with it: "Cuiqin, you already know, I have nothing to say, I deserve to die, but please let my daughter go, if you let her go, I will tell you where your son was sold to, don't you want to know the whereabouts of your son?"
Cuiqin showed a heartbroken expression: "Son? You still have the nerve to mention my son at this time? Don't lie to me, I have already inquired about it. I asked all over the city and found out that you sold my son to a family on Xixie Street in Dongliu Town. I went to the address and found that the family had moved away. No one knows where they moved to."
"Later, I kept looking for them. After more than ten years, I finally found out their new address. When I got there, I found it was an empty house. Neighbors told me that the family did live here before, but the man got an infectious disease and passed it on to his family. Now everyone in the family is dead, and my son is gone!"
Magu felt empty inside. It turned out that Cuiqin had already found out the whereabouts of her son. Since her son was dead, she had nothing to worry about in this world. It seemed that she came here today with the determination to die...
The air was quiet for a moment. Everyone was shocked by Cuiqin's experience. Cuiqin looked at Magu and smiled grimly: "Guo Xiuzhen, do you know what has kept me alive all these years? It's you! I wanted to die so much, but I dreamed of my son. My son wouldn't let me die. He told me to avenge him. I thought, yes, you, the culprit, are still alive. How can I die? I want to live. I must find your whereabouts. I want you to pay the price for what you did!"
Seeing Cuiqin becoming crazy, Magu gave in. She knelt on the ground and begged Cuiqin: "Cuiqin, every wrong has its perpetrator. If you want revenge, come to me. The child is innocent. My daughter is just an ordinary student. She knows nothing."
Cuiqin shouted, "You also know that the child is innocent, so why did you sell my child? He was just born not long ago, and you stole him away from me. You caused us to be separated, and I have never wanted to kill you for so many years! I want to catch you and cut off your flesh piece by piece with a knife to feed the dogs!"
Magu burst into tears: "Okay, Cuiqin, I will come to you now and give my life to you. You can do whatever you want to me. I will never fight back. Just let my daughter go, okay?"
Cuiqin looked at Magu with contempt and rejected her request: "You come to exchange? What a joke! Do you think I will let you go so easily? I have been looking for so many years, and no one understands better than me that death is a kind of relief, and living in the world is torment! If I kill you myself, it will be easy for you. I want you to suffer the same pain as me. I called you here today just to let you watch your child die with your own eyes!"
As she spoke, Cuiqin started the car and prepared to rush down the cliff. Everyone's heart was lifted up. Magu knelt down and kowtowed, but Cuiqin didn't even look at her.
"Wait—"
Just then, Bai Mian got out of the car. Her voice seemed to have a magical power that made Cuiqin unconsciously stop what she was doing.
"Your son is alive!"
