Chapter 221 Safe
But Chengxuan didn't run away. Instead, he grabbed another stone and smashed it hard on the bald man's face.
"Bang!" The stone hit the bald man's nose bridge, and his nose immediately bled. He covered his face and wailed, chasing Chengxuan with an increasingly ferocious look.
The opportunity has come!
Jiang Haitang endured the pain in his arm, rushed forward and kicked the bald man to the ground!
"Bang!" She kicked him in the stomach, and the bald man immediately curled up like a shrimp. He was about to turn over and get up, but Jiang Haitang pointed the iron rod straight at his neck.
The bald man didn't expect that he would be knocked to the ground so easily by a little girl, his face distorted.
"If you dare to open your mouth, I will stab you to death with a stick!" Jiang Haitang threatened fiercely.
Although the bald man wanted to tear Jiang Haitang to pieces alive, the pain in his neck forced him to keep his mouth shut.
He was unwilling to give in and glared at Jiang Haitang fiercely.
"Stare at me, how dare you stare at me!" Jiang Haitang waved his hand and hit him on the head with an iron rod. The bald man fainted unwillingly.
"Sister, are you okay?" Chengxuan looked at the person who fainted and ran over. His little face was tense and he was obviously very nervous.
Jiang Haitang panted, rubbed his numb arm, and forced a smile: "It's okay, thanks to you."
Chengxuan pursed his lips, but his eyes were particularly firm: "You saved us, I can't abandon you."
"Chengxuan, I'll tie them both up and leave."
Jiang Haitang was worried. If she didn't tie the person up, what would happen if he woke up and chased after her?
Chengxuan nodded and immediately helped Jiang Haitang find a rope.
After tying up the two human traffickers, they quickly went out through the small door.
After running a few steps, I suddenly saw a few little guys crawling out from the side.
"Sister, you're out, woooo..." A little kid started crying immediately when he saw Jiang Haitang.
"Sister, we discussed it and decided that we can't let you stay here alone, so we hid outside." Huang Yulan walked closer to Jiang Haitang and said in a hesitant voice.
Jiang Haitang didn't expect that these little guys were waiting for her here, and her heart warmed.
But now is not the time to be moved. We should try to leave here, the farther the better.
With a group of little ones, and at night, it wasn't easy to walk, but none of the children gave up. Even the youngest, only three or four years old, ran with one foot deep and one foot shallow. After falling, they got up and continued running...
But at this moment, they heard the sound of a car in the distance.
Jiang Haitang felt a chill in her heart. Could it be that the human traffickers also had cars?
"There's a small slope over there. Let's hide there."
She immediately asked all the children to find a place to lie down.
After the children all lay on the ground, Jiang Haitang felt much more relieved.
It's night time now, and the little ones are so small that they are not very conspicuous lying on the ground.
"If the human traffickers chase us later, I will lead them away and you continue to run forward, okay? Chengxuan, Yulan, Tiezhu, you three are the oldest, you must take good care of them!" Jiang Haitang instructed solemnly.
Tiezhu wanted to say something, but Chengxuan had already nodded. Huang Yulan also nodded in assurance after a brief hesitation.
"Sister, I will protect them and find someone to rescue you in time!"
Jiang Haitang nodded: "Don't worry, as long as you can get out safely, I have a way to ensure my own safety.
As they were talking, the car was already not far away from them.
Jiang Haitang stared at the approaching cars with burning eyes. Two jeeps were speeding past on the road, one in front and one behind.
It was not very clear under the moonlight, but Jiang Haitang vaguely felt that the person sitting upstairs seemed to be a police officer.
However, Jiang Haitang did not dare to take it lightly.
What if?
What if I made a mistake?
I finally escaped, I can’t take any more risks!
The car was driving very fast, raising a cloud of dust in the direction they had just escaped from.
Jiang Haitang waited until the car drove away and continued to call the children to move forward.
They dared not walk on the main road, but only walked not far from the main road.
Not long after, the car was seen coming back, but this time it was driving much slower, and several people got out of the car, searching with flashlights.
"Look carefully. The kidnapped people are all children. They shouldn't have gone far."
"Are we going in the wrong direction?"
Jiang Haitang listened to what these people said and felt that they might really be here to look for the children, but she was also worried. What if these people were in cahoots with the human traffickers?
"Chengxuan, what do you think, should we go out?" Jiang Haitang asked Chengxuan.
She felt that Chengxuan was an extraordinary child and might be able to give her some advice.
But just this one sentence was heard by people.
"Who is it?" a loud shout was heard.
The strong light of the flashlight pierced the night, and Jiang Haitang subconsciously protected the children behind her.
At this moment, Chengxuan suddenly shouted loudly: "Uncle Wei! It's me!"
The beam of light immediately changed direction, and a lean man in military uniform walked quickly towards them, followed by several armed soldiers.
The man squatted down and hugged Chengxuan tightly, his voice trembling: "Xiaoxuan! The chief and his wife are going crazy!"
Only then did Jiang Haitang notice that the two jeeps parked in the distance were not police cars, but military vehicles.
In addition to the soldiers and public security comrades, there was also a female comrade with short hair who was wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
"Xuan'er, I was so scared. Mom finally found you!" The woman stumbled towards Chengxuan.
Chengxuan also rushed towards the woman. When he saw his relatives, he lost his previous calmness and cried like a real child.
Jiang Haitang was sure that these people were not bad people, so she asked the children to stand up.
The soldier called Uncle Wei by Chengxuan didn't expect that a bunch of little kids would appear in front of him just because he wasn't paying attention. Oh, no, there was also an adult.
"You are..." The man in military uniform looked at Jiang Haitang warily.
"Uncle Wei, it was Sister Haitang who saved us!" Chengxuan exclaimed, "She defeated all the bad guys! She's really powerful."
The female comrade hugged Chengxuan tightly. When she looked up at Jiang Haitang, tears welled up in her eyes, shining silver in the moonlight. "Comrade, thank you so much..."
"These children are all scared. Could you please help send them to the city?" After Jiang Haitang relaxed, she felt exhausted.
"Okay!" The soldier named Wei agreed immediately, then frowned.
"It's just that there are so many children that there won't be enough space in the car to take them back at once. Sister-in-law, can Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhao drive one group back first, and the rest of us can stay here and wait?"
Chengxuan's mother nodded immediately after hearing what the soldier surnamed Wei said. "These children are probably scared. Let's send the younger ones first. We'll wait here."
Jiang Haitang didn't expect that Chengxuan's mother was such an easy-going woman.
After both cars were filled with children, Jiang Haitang suddenly remembered that there were still people tied up in the warehouse and immediately said, "There are still a few human traffickers in the warehouse over there."
"I've asked Xiao Wang to get a large truck over here. Zhao Zhihe, Cai Youlu, and Duan Kejun, the three of you go arrest those traffickers and don't let them escape."
After making these arrangements, the soldier named Wei took the remaining two soldiers and stayed in place to guard the others.
Chengxuan's mother had checked Chengxuan's body. After making sure that Chengxuan was fine, she carried Chengxuan to Jiang Haitang.
"Hello, I'm Chengxuan's mother. My name is Cheng Qianqiu. Thank you for saving my child and so many other children. However, we understand that these human traffickers mainly prey on children. Why were you also arrested?"
"My sister found out I was captured by human traffickers, and she was captured by them in order to save me. Woohoo! If it weren't for my sister, we would have been eaten by the traffickers!"
Tiezhu suddenly spoke, and his little mouth fluently helped Jiang Haitang explain.
"Mom, this is Tiezhu. Tiezhu is also very brave!" Chengxuan immediately began to praise his friends who had shared weal and woe with him.
"Hello, Comrade Cheng Qianqiu, my name is Jiang Haitang, and I'm an employee of the Jincheng Textile Factory in Long Province."
"Jincheng Textile Factory? I remember you were in the newspaper during the Chinese New Year. You and your partner bravely saved a trainload of people!" Cheng Qianqiu's face lit up with joy. "Comrade Jiang Haitang, my cousin's family was on the train, and they talked about you."
Jiang Haitang didn't expect that the world is so big and there are so many coincidences.
"You are too polite, Comrade Cheng Qianqiu. This is what we should do." Jiang Haitang did not take credit for himself.
"You first saved my cousin's family, and then saved my only son. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, our family would have been broken up."
Cheng Qianqiu put Chengxuan on the ground, grabbed Jiang Haitang's hand, and expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
The two men talked for a few words and comforted the remaining anxious children. Then they heard the sound of a car coming, which turned out to be a large truck.
A man jumped out from the passenger seat, and it was the director of the Public Security Bureau.
"Director Du!" Comrade Wei obviously knew the visitor and immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"I heard that the children have been rescued and the traffickers have been caught, so I came over to take a look immediately." Director Du asked anxiously.
Comrade Wei smiled and introduced Director Du: "Yes, Director Du. It was this comrade who saved these children. If it weren't for her, these children might have been sent away."
Just now, their people found two ox carts in the direction of the main gate, which should be used to transport these abducted children.
After hearing what Comrade Wei said, Director Du quickly stepped forward and shook Jiang Haitang's hand. "Little comrade, you've saved so many children. You're a great benefactor to so many families in Shangdu! On behalf of these families, thank you!"
"I don't deserve your praise. I just did what I should do." Jiang Haitang said modestly.
"I have arranged to send the children to the hospital for examination and have notified their parents to pick them up. Comrade Cheng Qianqiu, it's our fault that little Chengxuan got into trouble in our Shangdu territory."
Hearing Director Du's respectful attitude, Jiang Haitang was slightly surprised. It seemed that Comrade Cheng Qianqiu's identity was not ordinary.
However, she had no interest in exploring.
Cheng Qianqiu said: "It was also caused by our carelessness. Thank you for your hard work, Director Du."
The two men exchanged a few polite words, and Director Du looked at Jiang Haitang again.
