Just as everyone was immersed in this tragic fact, Yuan Jing said sadly: "Master, are their bodies still in the pond? Why didn't they float up? If they did, maybe we could have found them earlier and called the police, or we could have fished them out. The water is too cold."
His brows and eyes were dim, because he had only been in the water for a short time, but he felt the discomfort of being without air and the chill of the icy water that went deep into his bones.
Thinking of those children who were even younger than him and had suffered so much, Yuan Jing couldn't help but want to cry.
Chen Xi nodded: "Yes, it is still in the pond."
"As for why it didn't float up for so long, it's because there were a lot of water plants at the bottom of the pond. They entangled the child when he struggled, so you haven't found the body yet."
The villagers suddenly realized that it was just because there were too many aquatic plants.
They rushed to say, "That's right. We used to grow some grass in that pond to feed pigs. Later, the village stopped feeding pigs, but the grass has always been there. We never took care of it. Every spring, it would sprout and grow lush, but in winter, it would wither and sink to the bottom of the water. Over time, it would accumulate a lot."
"Yeah, I didn't expect it to be for this reason. Oh, really, it seems we have to clean up properly this year to avoid any accidents."
They didn't expect that the children were not discovered by them for this reason, and they felt sorry for it. If the people in their village were more diligent, perhaps they would not have been delayed for so long.
At the same time, they also hated the human traffickers to the core and wanted to find them and cut them into pieces. Everyone's eyes were filled with hatred and determination.
"I hope the police can find those traffickers as soon as possible and have them executed. They are truly harmful to people, and keeping them around is like pests to our country."
Chen Xi looked at everyone's indignant expressions and said, "The human traffickers will be caught this time."
Yuan Jing knew Chen Xi's abilities. Since the master said so, it meant that this would definitely happen, and those human traffickers would be caught soon.
"It's a pity that these children didn't encounter a good opportunity. I hope they can be born into a good family." He said regretfully.
Chen Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, these children will have a good future. The police will come to your village soon to salvage their bodies and bury them in peace without having to endure the pain of icy water."
Knowing that the police were coming to retrieve the body, the villagers all wanted to go back and take a look.
Yuan Shuhuan was naturally no exception. This was a big event and they had to participate, so they said to Chen Xi, "Let's go back and see if there is anything we can do to help."
Yuan Jing couldn't be discharged from the hospital yet, but he felt completely fine: "Dad, I'll go back with you."
Yuan's mother glanced at her son and agreed when she saw that he was very involved. At worst, she could send the patient back after the matter was over and continue to stay in the hospital.
In this way, a large group of people left the hospital in a mighty manner.
Yuan Shuhuan's use of his phone was limited to calls, text messages, and transferring money to his son. He wasn't very familiar with other entertainment apps. Halfway through the walk, he realized his video was still on. He asked sheepishly, "Master, what do I do with this video? How do I turn it off?"
Yuan Jing tugged at his father's sleeve and said to the people in the livestream, "Do you want to watch? If so, I'll keep it on. If I'm busy, I'll turn off the video so as not to disturb you."
[If you want to watch it, don't turn it off. Take us with you. We also want to send the children off.]
[I want to watch it too. I don't have work today, so I can go and see those poor children together.]
Chen Xi didn't have anything to do today. It was too cold outside and she didn't want to go out. Seeing that everyone wanted to see it, she agreed: "Then open it."
After getting everyone's permission, Yuan Jing put the cell phone into the pocket of his cotton jacket.
Because the pocket is not very deep, the camera can be exposed outside.
Soon they took a car back to the village. As soon as they arrived at the village entrance, they saw many uniformed police officers coming to the village.
Yuan Shuhuan walked up with his son and the villagers who had come before him: "Hello, we are the ones who discovered this incident, and this is my son Yuan Jing."
Officer Zhang briefly introduced himself and then got straight to the point: "Let's talk while we walk."
Everyone followed behind him and added what they knew to what Yuan Shuhuan didn't understand.
Because the pond was not far away, we arrived at it quickly.
Yuan Jing was instinctively afraid of water, but he was still the first to shout, "Uncle police, this is where we got into trouble."
"Their bodies should be here too." He said this in a very low voice, and if you listened carefully you could hear his crying voice.
The other villagers who had followed frowned upon hearing this: What's going on? Isn't this just a simple fall into the water? How is it connected to a corpse? Could there be a corpse in this small pond?
They haven’t seen anyone missing in the village?
Just when everyone was confused, three or four police officers had already changed into sailor uniforms and stood by the pond.
With a command, they jumped into the pond in unison with a "splash".
The splash was very small, like that of a diver.
After the policemen entered the water, a man named Mencius jumped in.
The water surface soon returned to calm.
The seemingly shallow pond is actually so deep that you can't see the bottom.
Those who did not go into the water were even more nervous standing by the pond because they didn't know how many small corpses were in this small pond.
