5 Head split open
◎…◎
"Be gentle. We've agreed to stay here for one night and leave at daybreak."
"The police just checked this place during the day, so they probably won't be coming here again anytime soon. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to stay here with you."
A man with gauze wrapped around his head whispered in a low voice.
The bald man with him was carrying an unconscious little boy on his back.
Seeing the gauze man being overly cautious, the bald man couldn't help but sneer.
"I think your courage has been destroyed by that little bitch's brick. You used to be the most daring, but now you have become as timid as a rat."
Being ridiculed, Sun Lao Er's face turned red and he was very dissatisfied.
Is he being timid? He is being cautious.
A few days ago, he and the bald man took the opportunity of driving a truck to kidnap a young girl from a big city and hid her in the cellar.
Thinking that he hadn't eaten meat for a long time, he couldn't help himself.
In the middle of the night, while the bald man was drunk and asleep, she sneaked into the cellar in the dark, wanting to have some fun.
Anyway, this girl will be sold to the countryside to be someone's wife. Instead of letting those rough guys in the countryside get her a good deal, it's better to let him get her a good deal first.
But he didn't know that the little girl was so fierce. She hid a stone from somewhere and smashed his head with it, causing him to faint.
When he finally woke up, he found that the person had run away.
He was shocked, fearing that the other party would run away and find the public security bureau to report them.
Of course he knew that if his job was exposed, he would definitely be shot.
At that time, he didn't care about the injury on his head. He hurriedly woke up the still drunk bald man and found a place to hide with the bald man.
But to his surprise, after hiding and observing quietly for several days, he did not see the police come to arrest him.
The bald man was very short of money because of his gambling addiction, so he couldn't bear it any longer and went out to drive his car and became a human trafficker.
Because of his head injury and the need to keep an eye on the police, he stayed hiding nearby and did not leave.
When the police came to investigate during the day, he thought his identity as a human trafficker had been exposed and was ready to flee directly to the south.
Later he found out that the police were not there to arrest him, but were there to look for clues as there was a murder and corpse dumping case at the South City Textile Factory. The deceased was a young girl.
When Sun Laoer heard the police's description of the girl's appearance and clothing, his heart skipped a beat.
Some of the features and clothing of the little girl whose body was dumped were exactly the same as those of the little girl who knocked him out and ran away.
Upon learning that the little girl had been murdered and her body dumped, Sun Laoer didn't know whether he should be relieved or even more worried.
The relief was that the little girl was probably killed before she could find the police station, so his identity as a human trafficker was not exposed.
What I'm worried about is, what if the police find out he's the culprit who kidnapped and trafficked people here?
Just when he was thinking about whether he should just run away to the south, the bald man who had kidnapped another child found him and offered to stay in his house for one night.
He didn't want to agree at first. The situation had been so tense these past two days that the police might discover something unusual.
But the bald man had a lot of leverage over him, so he didn't dare to refuse. He could only pray to God that nothing would happen to him tonight.
"Don't worry, I'll just stay here for one night and leave at daybreak. This shipment has already been pre-ordered, and once the goods are delivered, I'll have a lot more money on hand. I'll definitely pay you back when the time comes."
Hearing what the bald man said, Sun Laoer rolled his eyes and didn't believe it at all.
Given the bald man's gambling nature, he would probably spend the money before he could even warm it up.
In the past two years, they have sold to many people and made a lot of money.
After buying this small courtyard in the county town, he still had a lot of money left.
The bald man, on the other hand, not only had nothing left, but also owed a lot of gambling debts.
He always felt that if the bald man continued to gamble like this, something would happen sooner or later, so Sun Laoer couldn't help but start thinking of a way out for himself.
What if the bald man loses a lot of money in the future and the money he earns as a human trafficker is not enough to cover his losses, and he sets his sights on his own small treasury? What should I do?
It's not impossible.
The bald man lost money and couldn't pay it back right away, so he borrowed money from him and still hasn't paid it back to him.
When he mentioned paying back the money, the other party got angry and said that he had no brotherly loyalty and that asking for repayment so often meant he didn't trust him.
The one who owes money is the boss, Sun Laoer finally understood what it means.
One reason is that they are afraid that the bald man will get angry after losing and target his small treasury.
On the other hand, he is not young anymore and wants to get married and have a child to carry on the family line.
If he continues to do this business of human trafficking that will wipe out his entire family, he might be caught one day. He doesn't want to take the risk of making this money anymore.
I heard that the policies from above have changed in the past two years, and many people who went to the south to buy goods and sell them in the north have now made a fortune.
Not only can he make money much faster as a profiteer than as a human trafficker, but he can also do it in a public manner. He couldn't help but feel jealous when he heard about it.
If you can earn money honestly, who would want to be a rat in the gutter?!
Although he had an idea in his mind, how to get rid of the bald man was a problem.
It was the bald man who led him to become a human trafficker. Now it is not easy for him to get out of this business.
Sun Laoer was thinking about how to get rid of the bald man, but he didn't stop opening the door.
But just as he opened the door and was about to go in, he discovered a black shadow over one meter tall standing in the middle of his yard.
At first he thought it was a wooden stake, but suddenly he remembered that there was no wooden stake in the middle of his yard.
After opening his eyes wide and seeing clearly that the black shadow was actually a person, Sun Laoer was first startled, and then furious.
What a petty thief, he even stole things from his house?!
When he was doing all those petty thefts, this little thief was nowhere to be found. He is really asking for trouble by showing off his skills in front of an expert!
Sun Lao Er became more and more angry the more he thought about it, so he immediately called the bald man behind him and was about to rush up and hold the man down.
However, the next second, something happened that made his scalp tingle!
The black shadow suddenly seemed to escape from gravity and flew into the air.
Fly? Flying?!
Sun Laoer suddenly looked like he had seen a ghost, his eyes widened!
Oh no, he really saw a ghost!
Before Sun Lao Er and the bald man could recover from their shock, Iketani Ai snapped her fingers, and a burst of eerie and ghostly music suddenly rang out.
——Her eyes, her eyes, are like shining stars. Seeing them, seeing them, seeing them, seeing them, my heart is in turmoil.
——Her eyes, her eyes, are like shining stars. Seeing them, seeing them, seeing them, my heart becomes even more anxious...①
Against the backdrop of Mr. Zombie's classic horror BGM, Iketani Ai, who was blessed with various magical special effects and skills by the system, flew to Sun Laoer.
Before Sun Laoer, with his eyes wide open, could see her clearly, the fat, white, cold hand without any warmth grabbed Sun Laoer's neck and lifted him into the air.
Sun Laoer, who was strangled by the neck and hung in the air, felt that he could not breathe.
His face flushed red as he began to struggle desperately, trying to pry the fat white hand off his neck.
But he found that everything was in vain. The strength of that hand was so great that it soon pinched him until his face turned purple and his eyes bulged out.
Only at this time did Sun Laoer finally see clearly the appearance of the female ghost who was strangling him.
In the smoke, the face that was less than 20 centimeters away from him, which was terribly swollen, grayish white with a hint of purple, could still vaguely see some of its original appearance.
She was actually the abducted girl who escaped from his clutches and was then murdered and her body dumped? !
When Sun Laoer thought about the news he heard during the day, he suddenly felt that he was wronged.
Although he and the bald man abducted the girl, and he did intend to do something bad to her, she ran away before he could succeed.
There was someone else who killed her. Even if he wanted revenge, he shouldn't look for him!
“Mercy—mercy—” Spare my life!
Ichiya Ai ignored Sun Laoer's pleading eyes, exerted force with her hands, and pinched the other's neck tighter.
Begging for mercy? When the girl was knocked unconscious and abducted by them and locked in the cellar, she also begged for mercy, begging them to let her go.
Her parents are waiting for her to come home, and she is about to go to college. She has a bright future and cannot be sold to a remote place at the foot of the mountain and ruin her life.
What they said was that this was her fate and that she should accept it and stop struggling in vain.
Although the girl did not die directly at the hands of the other party, the other party cannot shirk his responsibility.
If they hadn't knocked the girl unconscious and brought her here when she was walking, she would definitely still be alive now.
The faint and desperate cries of the wronged girl's soul could be heard again in her ears, and Iketani Ai immediately increased the strength in her hands.
Looking at Sun Laoer, who was hung in the air by one hand of the female ghost and his tongue was pinched out, the bald man was almost scared to death.
Ghosts! There really are ghosts in this world!!!
The bald man who had done so many evil things for so many years but had never been afraid was finally afraid this time.
Seeing the female ghost looking at him, the bald man screamed.
He was so frightened that he didn't even care about the little boy on his back. He threw the boy forward and turned around and ran away.
Looking at the little boy thrown by the bald man, Iketani Ai wanted to chop the bald man into pieces.
If the little boy had fallen hard, he would probably have been injured.
Sun Laoer, who was still breathing his last, was slammed to the ground. Iketani Ai rushed over in time and caught the still unconscious little boy.
Seeing the bald man about to run out of the courtyard, could Iketani Ai let him escape? Of course not.
She will not let either of these two evil human traffickers go!
Ai Iketani picked up the little boy and chased after him. Before the bald man ran out of the yard, she grabbed him in her hands.
Then he didn't even give the other person a chance to beg for mercy, he grabbed the other person's head and slammed it hard against the door frame!
With a bang, the bald man felt as if his head had split open, scarlet liquid splashed out, and his consciousness instantly fell into darkness.
