Zhang Mao's face changed, and he stammered, "You...what nonsense are you talking about? My money...of course I earned it honestly!"
"Did you earn it legitimately? How did the Li family from Lijia Village die a month ago? You must have taken their money!"
Zhang Mao's face turned pale instantly, and his voice trembled: "You...what nonsense..."
Jiang Muyao looked at him coldly: "Nonsense? Do you think no one knows what you did? Murder, arson, robbery and extortion, how much blood has been stained on your money, you know it in your heart."
Zhang Mao's eyes were filled with cruelty: "I...I will kill you..."
Jiang Muyao kicked Zhang Mao to the ground.
Just then, a group of people rushed in from outside the yard. The villagers turned around and saw a group of people rushing in with guns in their hands.
He shouted loudly, "Everyone, don't move! Put your hands on your head!"
Boss Ma and the villagers were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they all squatted down with their heads in their hands.
The leading police officer walked up to Jiang Muyao and saluted: "Comrade, it was you who called the police!"
Jiang Muyao nodded.
The police turned to the villagers and shouted, "We have received a report that this village is suspected of trafficking women and children. Now everyone needs to be investigated."
--
After the police rushed into the village, they quickly took control of all the villagers.
As the investigation deepened, the dark side of this village was gradually revealed:
When the woman imprisoned in the pigsty was rescued, she was no longer in human form.
They were dressed in rags, covered in scars, and had blank eyes like the walking dead.
One of the women rushed over and grabbed the police officer's hand, her voice trembling: "Save us... We were trafficked here..."
"Don't be afraid, you are safe."
Another woman huddled in the corner, muttering to herself, "I...I want to go home..."
The police officers' eyes were red and their fists were clenched. Although they had rescued the victims many times, every time they saw this scene, they wanted to kill these beasts...
--
In the yard, all the villagers were handcuffed and sitting on the ground.
Zhang Mao had a look of despair on his face. When he heard those things from Jiang Muyao's mouth, he even thought about silencing her.
But when the police rushed in, he knew that what he had done was enough to sentence him to death.
"Your retribution has come." Jiang Muyao said lightly.
Boss Ma suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of resentment: "Why do you care about our affairs?"
"This is our village's business! What do you outsiders know?"
Jiang Muyao sneered: "Your village's affairs? Trafficking women and children, imprisonment and abuse, murder and arson, this is your village's affairs?"
Boss Ma was speechless, but he still said: "What do you know? It was my Ma family who saved Ma Niu'er. If we hadn't bought her."
"If you had given her a bite to eat, you wouldn't have seen her any more!"
Boss Ma's wife chimed in, her voice sharp: "That's right! We've raised her for so many years, fed her and clothed her. What gives you the right to accuse us of abusing her?"
Jiang Muyao said sarcastically, "Feed her? Clothe her? What you call 'raising' means leaving her hungry and cold, with endless farm work to do every day? And then you beat and scold her at every turn?"
Boss Ma's face froze, but he quickly added, "That's...that's to make her more sensible! We're from the countryside, and whose children don't work?"
"Sensible? Then you forced her to marry an old bachelor in order to make her 'sensible'?"
Seeing this, Ma Lao Da’s wife suddenly started wailing:
"You rich people, you talk without any hesitation! We rural people have a hard life. Raising a child is not easy. What right do you have to blame us?"
Jiang Muyao looked at her coldly: "Life is hard? So you break the law? Is that your reason?"
"We...we are also trying to survive..."
Jiang Muyao was too lazy to talk nonsense with them. She turned to the police and said, "These people are suspected of trafficking, abuse, illegal detention, and may even be involved in murder. Please make sure to investigate thoroughly."
The police nodded: "Don't worry, we will investigate this thoroughly."
Just then, Li Shengjie came over with Wanqing.
There were still traces of tears on Li Wanqing's face, but her eyes were full of relief and determination.
She looked at Boss Ma and his wife, her voice trembling but clear: "You...you are not saving me at all...you are just treating me like an animal."
"Girl..we..."
Li Wanqing interrupted them, her voice filled with anger: "Don't call me girl! I'm not your girl! I'm Li Wanqing! I have my own family! I have my own parents!"
Seeing this, the adoptive mother suddenly rushed forward and tried to grab Wanqing's hand: "Girl...you can't be so heartless...we have raised you for so many years..."
"What you call 'supporting' is letting me live a life worse than pigs and dogs? What you call conscience is forcing me to marry an old bachelor?"
"You know what? The thing I'm most thankful for is that you can't have children, because you're not worthy of being parents..."
The police arrested almost everyone in the village, but in such a large village, they couldn't even find an innocent family.
Their faces were filled with fear and despair.
They once thought that this remote village was their world and they could do whatever they wanted.
But now, their crimes have finally been exposed, and what awaits them will be severe punishment by law!
Jiang Muyao looked at the scene where Li Shengjie and his daughter hugged and cried, then turned to Pei Haoyu and said:
"Let's go, we have nothing to do here."
