Ah Xu's family was very kind. They gave Cheng Yu food, boiled water for her, and got her clothes to bathe and change into.
Seeing that it was quite late, they cleaned up an empty room for Yuan Mengge and her companion to stay in for the night.
The next morning, Yuan Mengge woke up Axu and had him take her and Chengyu directly to the county town.
After what happened last night, Ah Xu forgot his promise to Yuan Mengge and sent them out early.
After arriving in the county town, Yuan Mengge parted ways with A Xu and took Cheng Yu by bus to the provincial capital.
She took Cheng Yu to Li Xue'e's school and left Cheng Yu in her care for two days.
She had already told Cheng Yu that her brother would come to see her in a couple of days, and she even took the only necklace she had.
After spending the night together, Cheng Yu's wariness towards Yuan Mengge had lessened considerably. After all, Yuan Mengge was the one who had rescued her, and she instinctively believed that Yuan Mengge was a good person and wanted to rely on her.
Li Xue'e was also completely bewildered when she saw that she had suddenly and inexplicably brought a child over to her.
However, the school doesn't care about these things because it's an adult school, so the school atmosphere is quite free.
Some people can even bring their children here to live, taking care of their children while attending classes.
So Li Xue'e brought Cheng Yu back to her dormitory and let her sleep with her for two nights.
Cheng Yu is very thin and doesn't take up much space on the bed. Although it's a bit cramped, she can still squeeze in and sleep.
After handing the child over to Li Xue'e, Yuan Mengge went to the garage to get her car, changed her gear, and drove to Hekou County again.
Before going to Hekou County, she had someone deliver a letter to the Provincial Public Security Bureau.
She explained the situation with the beehive to them, and that it would take some time for the police to respond, so she wasn't in a hurry.
When she drove back to Hekou County, she bought some dry food and water and packed them in her backpack before heading back into the mountains.
We ran into the mountains for over an hour, and then it got dark.
She found the place where her classmates were being held. It was indeed a small village built deep in the mountains.
There are also indigenous people, but these indigenous people have also been controlled by terrorists.
The houses here are mostly made of wood, giving them the feel of an indigenous minority tribe.
Yuan Mengge secretly observed the environment and architecture of the place from afar, and analyzed the areas where people were active.
There was a relatively large house with many guards around it. Two guards stood at the door, and another guarded the back of the house.
The windows of that room weren't sealed off, but the gaps were small enough that a person couldn't squeeze through.
The village was surrounded by guards, but the original villagers seemed to be able to move around freely, suggesting that they had reached some kind of agreement with these terrorists.
Yuan Mengge scouted the location of the people guarding the village's perimeter, finding that they had essentially surrounded the entire village.
She searched around and found Cheng Hao among the people guarding the perimeter.
After finding Cheng Hao, she hid in the shadows and used a slingshot to shoot Cheng Yu, the necklace, and a note at Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao, who was on guard duty, suddenly felt something hit him. It hurt a little, but it wasn't dangerous.
He picked up the item and looked at it. His expression changed slightly, and he immediately put the necklace into his pocket.
He then opened the paper, glanced at it, and then took out a lighter and burned it.
He checked that no one was around before carefully taking the necklace out to examine it again.
It was definitely the one he made for Cheng Yu!
After using it for so long, the necklace cord has become frayed.
Yuan Mengge wrote down Cheng Yu's situation and current location on the note she gave him.
In addition, she wrote down two things that Cheng Hao needed to cooperate with now.
He put the necklace away again and then glanced around.
Then he took out a small notebook from his pants pocket, and in the dark, he drew a simple map with a pen, and also wrote some information on it.
He then wrapped the paper around a small stone, took a few steps in a certain direction, and then threw the stone away forcefully.
Yuan Mengge was in that spot, and upon hearing the sound of the stone falling, she immediately went to investigate.
She quickly found the stone Cheng Hao had thrown and hid to the side with the note in her hand.
With the information Cheng Hao provided, combined with her previous investigation, she quickly grasped the situation in the village.
This is the finished goods warehouse. The goods produced at the factory are brought here, sealed in bags, and then taken to another place for disguised packaging before being transported out to sea by fishing boats to Southeast Asia.
The factory is in another location, not far from here.
These people are all disguised as villagers in this village, going to buy daily necessities.
There are forty or fifty villagers here, and there are also quite a few terrorists, more than thirty.
Cheng Hao also wrote a sentence: "The villagers in the village cannot be trusted, that is, you cannot cooperate with them."
Cheng Hao did not disclose what agreement was reached between the villagers and these people.
"System, take a look at the item shop."
After the system opened the item shop, Yuan Mengge scrolled to the medicine category, swiped it, and finally found the potion she was looking for.
[Powerful Sleeping Pills (1-person dose / 10-person dose / 30-person dose / 100-person dose)]
Effects: Colorless and odorless, induces deep sleep for 24 hours in 10 seconds.
Dosage for 100 people: Dilute the medicine in two liters of water before pouring it into a water tank.
Different dosages, different prices.
Yuan Mengge spent 3,000 experience points to exchange for a potion sufficient for 100 people, planning to let the terrorists and villagers here get a good night's sleep.
There's only one well in the village, which makes things much simpler.
After sending a message to Cheng Hao, Yuan Mengge sneaked into the village under cover of darkness in the middle of the night.
After Cheng Hao finished his shift late at night and returned to the village, he went to check on the house where people were being held.
Then he left.
Taking advantage of the darkness and high winds, Yuan Mengge went to the well and poured the medicine directly into it.
Then she vanished into the darkness like a ghost.
The next morning, the villagers and the terrorists woke up and started making breakfast.
Cooking and such were all done for the villagers.
Because they had reached some kind of agreement, they were not afraid that the villagers would get close and tamper with the food.
Basically, these people were treated like servants.
When the villager cooking in the kitchen noticed that the water in the water tank was gone, he didn't think much of it and went to the well to fetch water.
After a morning, everyone collapsed.
Whether they had eaten or drunk water, none were spared.
Yuan Mengge walked to the room where the hostages were being held, glanced at the two guards who were lying on the back and fast asleep, squatted down and took the key from them, and then opened the door.
