Seeing Chen Deming sobbing uncontrollably, Zhou Chunhua didn't even know how to comfort him.
Because those who haven't experienced searching for their relatives simply cannot understand how painful this process is.
A perfectly good family is torn apart in the end; that's what makes human traffickers so hateful!
Seeing Chen Deming crying uncontrollably, she suddenly understood why Chen Xue had such a strong will to survive.
She waited quietly until Chen Deming had finished venting before asking, "Mr. Chen, could you please give me the list of names in your sister's diary?"
"What...what do you want it for?" When Chen Deming looked up at her, his face was red and swollen from crying.
Zhou Chunhua quickly explained, "There are many people like us. I found my daughter, you found your sister, but they may still be searching for their missing family members, just like you did before."
Sending out this list might... at least let them know where their loved ones have gone.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Deming carefully tore out those pages and handed them to her.
"Thank you. Without you, I would have no face to meet my parents in the afterlife."
Zhou Chunhua nodded, and before leaving, she relayed Uncle Hat's words to Chen Deming.
Upon hearing that the diary was evidence to convict those beasts in Sha Tin Tsui, Chen Deming immediately declared, "I will go there! I want to witness those beasts being beheaded with my own eyes!"
"At that time, I will go to my parents' and second sister's graves to burn incense and offer sacrifices, and tell them that those people got what they deserved."
Zhou Chunhua nodded.
When Zhou Chunhua left Chen Deming's house, she glanced at the small wooden house a few more times.
The small wooden cabin, which was tilted as if it were about to collapse, contained nothing but a table, a few stools, and a bed made of stones and planks.
It is clear that Chen Deming has always lived alone in this household.
That's right, sixty years. A person's life is only sixty years long!
He spent the best years of his life searching for his missing family, and dying alone was an ending he had long anticipated.
Just like myself!
However, just as she and Gu Yao reached the village entrance, they heard Chen Deming's voice behind them.
Zhou Chunhua turned her head and saw Chen Deming calling her name and waving at them.
She quickly walked back with Gu Yao.
Upon meeting, Chen Deming, panting heavily, spread his hands.
A thin stack of yellowed paper lay quietly in Chen Deming's hand.
"What's this?" Zhou Chunhua asked curiously as she took it.
With just one glance, her pupils suddenly contracted.
This is... this is actually...
It's a payment receipt!
It even has a postmark from the post office!
The recipient's name was none other than 'Wu Hao'.
And regarding the remittance...
Zhou Chunhua was stunned.
That place was actually... Wang Lin!
Zhou Chunhua only knew one Wang Lin!
That's Wang Lin, the owner of Southeast Trade!
"Gu Yao, look!" She couldn't wait to show Gu Yao the stack of remittance slips.
Gu Yao's pupils trembled as he recalled the words he had spoken when he asked An Tai about Wang Lin.
"It's more than just unclean! Do you know what he started with? He started with human trafficking! Let's put it this way, Wang Lin can be considered the number one human trafficker in the Jiang City area."
The piglets would all be delivered to him, and then he would distribute them to various parks. Let me tell you, this old guy is definitely slippery as an eel. During the crackdown, I don't know where he got the tip-off, but he just fled abroad.
He even took his assets out of the country. I just asked him, and he only recently returned to China. I strongly suspect that Southeast Trade, while ostensibly engaged in cross-border trade, is actually running a dirty business.
After all, what else can someone like him do besides his old profession...?
"So, the frequent mention in Chen Xue's diary of Wu Hao taking people out to be dismantled into parts... could it be that he sold the trafficked people to Wang Lin! And then Wang Lin took them abroad..."
"This is like hell being empty, and all the devils are here!" Zhou Chunhua gritted her teeth. "Let's go! Hand this over to the police. Wang Lin is the devil who deserves to be beheaded!"
As Zhou Chunhua and Gu Yao were looking at each other, Chen Deming suddenly grabbed her hand.
"Please, please, you must make that evil person pay the price!"
Zhou Chunhua nodded in agreement.
This time, Chen Deming escorted them to the village entrance.
Throughout the journey, none of them spoke, yet their expressions were identically somber.
...
That same day, Zhou Chunhua and Gu Yao bought plane tickets and rushed back to Qing'an.
Because these events occurred within Qing'an's jurisdiction, they have remained in Qing'an ever since.
After rushing back to the county town from the airport, Zhou Chunhua couldn't wait to give the remittance to Uncle Hat.
However, Gu Yao stopped her immediately upon hearing this.
“Your body has just recovered, and then you’ve been working hard for two more days. Take this break and go back to the hotel to catch up on your sleep. After this matter is settled, you’ll need to take Nini back to Jiang City for treatment. I’ll take the remittance slip.”
Zhou Chunhua's eyes welled up with tears whenever Nini was mentioned.
Because of Uncle Hat, she still hasn't seen Nini.
And then there's Tongtong; she doesn't even know if her two children are being taken good care of.
But... Gu Yao suddenly stopped her from continuing to participate in this matter. Could there be some problem?
She didn't doubt Gu Yao; on the contrary, she was more worried about him.
As for what she was worried about, she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
I always felt that the situation in Ganxi Village was more complex than it appeared on the surface.
Lost in thought, Gu Yao suddenly snatched the file folder from my hand.
“You almost lost your life because you didn’t listen to me. If you listen to me, go back and rest. I’ll take care of the rest.”
Seeing Gu Yao's nervous expression, Zhou Chunhua was even less likely to listen to him.
After much insistence, Gu Yao reluctantly agreed to let her go with him.
However, to Zhou Chunhua's surprise, Gu Yao actually went to a typing and photocopying shop near Uncle Hat's house and photocopied all those bank drafts one by one.
She didn't ask too many questions while at the copy shop.
As soon as they left the copy shop, Zhou Chunhua asked impatiently, "Do we need to keep a copy?"
Gu Yao put the photocopy into the file bag, and took out the original and put it into his briefcase.
This move completely stunned Zhou Chunhua.
It's worth noting that when she worked at the law firm, she also had experience with evidence preparation.
In this situation, the original document should be submitted, and a copy should be kept on file.
She had never seen anyone do something so unconventional as Gu Yao before.
Gu Yao tied the file folder and said in a low voice, "Remember, we only have photocopies."
Zhou Chunhua's pupils contracted...
"You mean... there's... a mole?"
