Watching Ning Yuan skillfully disinfect and bandage his wound, Teacher Zhang asked curiously, "Are you a nurse, young lady?"
Ning Yuan smiled and said, "No, I'm still a student and studying. I'm going to Guangzhou with my classmates this time."
"Classmates? Those soldiers are your classmates?" Teacher Zhang asked, somewhat puzzled.
Ning Yuan shook her head: "No, they are some older brothers I know. We just happened to run into them on a train."
Teacher Zhang's wife patted the sleeping child in her arms and said with emotion, "Luckily you were lucky to run into someone you knew, otherwise it would have been really dangerous just now."
Ning Yuan smiled nonchalantly: "Actually, even if it weren't for my older brothers making such a fuss, we would have run into the train police."
Wang Zhihe's colleagues had actually already rushed into the next carriage with guns.
The only difference is that the older brothers are faster and more skilled.
That military uniform was more intimidating than the police; the matter was resolved without even a shot being fired.
The three chatted and laughed for a while, and became quite familiar with each other.
As the train began to slow down again, the conductor announced that the train was about to arrive at the station.
Wei Heng brought over the junior company commander with luggage: "Xiao Ning, get ready to get off the train."
Ning Yuan quickly stood up: "Teacher Zhang, sister-in-law, I'll go tidy up first."
"Hey, girl, go ahead, we should get off the bus too." Teacher Zhang and his wife both stood up quickly.
Ning Yuan took two steps and looked at Teacher Zhang: "Oh, right, Teacher Zhang, you should pack your luggage too."
Teacher Zhang was taken aback. The next moment, Wei Heng's large hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder, gently squeezed, and neatly held him down.
Meanwhile, another junior company commander suddenly snatched their child from Teacher Zhang's wife's arms and handed it to Ning Yuan.
Then, he quickly grabbed the shoulder of Teacher Zhang's wife, who was trying to snatch the child back, and said coldly, "Behave yourself!"
"Girls, what are you doing? Didn't we make up?" Teacher Zhang looked at Ning Yuan in disbelief.
Ning Yuan had somehow managed to position herself safely behind Wei Heng.
She said calmly, "Yes, we have reached a settlement, but whether you can reach a settlement with the victims is something you'll have to ask the victims at the police station."
Teacher Zhang's gaze unconsciously drifted out the window. The train was coming to a stop, but the doors wouldn't open until it had come to a complete stop.
But he saw two cold, slender figures in military green standing on the platform outside the train window, staring coldly at him.
He remembered that he had seen these two people in the car before, especially the one in the lead with his aloof and handsome face!
"No need to look anymore. Jumping off the train is impossible. Your accomplices couldn't escape before, and neither can you!" Wei Hengsu said coldly.
Rong Zhaonan and Chen Chen jumped out of the car a few minutes earlier through the window, just to block their escape route.
A cold, sinister light flashed in Teacher Zhang's eyes behind his glasses. He suddenly turned his head to look at Ning Yuan, who was standing behind the two of them.
He suddenly smiled politely and pushed up his glasses: "Xiao Ning, where did I give myself away? Was it because I stopped you earlier?"
Teacher Zhang paused, tilting her head slightly: "That's not right either. Even if I laid a hand on you, you didn't suspect that I was one of the criminals at first!"
He seemed to be talking to himself: "When you came back to talk to me later, you still couldn't be sure that I had a problem. So where exactly did you slip up?"
Ning Yuan reached out to check the baby's breathing in her arms. She saw that he was breathing smoothly, but his face was pale.
She looked coldly at Teacher Zhang: "I found it strange just now. You were making such a fuss about arresting people, and you even raised your voice when I came over to talk to you."
"This child is about a year and a few months old, but he hasn't woken up at all. Is it because you drugged the child?"
These days, child traffickers always use strong drugs when they abduct children, regardless of whether the child can withstand it!
Teacher Zhang looked at the child in her arms, then glanced coldly at the woman beside her: "So that's how it is."
The gentle middle-aged woman trembled and lowered her head in fright.
Teacher Zhang sighed, "This child should have been taken off the train at the previous stop along with the twins, but unfortunately, this woman is useless and a bit too slow."
He shook his head: "You've found a weakness."
Teacher Zhang smiled at Ning Yuan: "You came here just to test us?"
Ning Yuan said calmly, "Yes, don't think you're so clever. You have plenty of flaws."
At first, she thought that perhaps he was just a righteous but somewhat pedantic intellectual.
Why would someone be fooled into helping criminals stop them?
But when the man stopped her and pulled her hair and pressed her to the ground, his hands didn't tremble or panic.
That decisiveness and ruthlessness is something that someone who hasn't trained before can't do.
However, at that time, she only had some doubts and concerns in her mind, and did not think about it deeply.
It wasn't until they were in the dining car that Rong Zhaonan mentioned there was blood on the back of his hand.
She suddenly remembered...
The middle-aged intellectual was deeply slashed by her knife, yet he was overly polite and refused any compensation.
It's less about guilt...
He seemed to want to avoid further involvement with himself, keep a low profile, and avoid being noticed by the railway police and the soldiers.
Later, Wang Zhihe brought several more victims who had filed reports.
There was a well-dressed couple from Guangzhou who were crying so hard their knees were weak; they had reportedly lost their one-year-old child.
In a flash, she suddenly remembered the middle-aged intellectual and his wife—
And the baby sleeping soundly in the other person's arms.
She immediately discussed with her elder brother and Rong Zhaonan that they should test the waters; it would be best if it was a misunderstanding.
If not, we can catch two more criminals.
Teacher Zhang looked at her and sneered darkly, "Little Ning, you are brave and sharp-eyed, but you offend people to death with your actions, which is not good."
Ning Yuan smiled, her big eyes crinkling: "I caused so many of your people to get arrested in the first place, so your people didn't intend to let me go either, did they?"
As she spoke, she raised her arm and pointed to a faint bloody cross formed by crossing her fingers on her elbow and clothing.
Without looking closely, one might mistake it for a bloodstain that Teacher Zhang had accidentally left when he pulled her earlier.
However, in the dining car, Wang Zhihe mentioned that these people would leave marks on the victims' luggage when committing the crimes.
She glanced at the statement, and the mark was indeed... quite similar to the rather large "cross mark" left on her body.
In the 1980s, desperate criminals, taking advantage of the lack of surveillance, dared to kill a police officer's entire family in revenge.
Before the magazine "Zhiyin" ceased publication, she read quite a few issues of crime fiction.
She was just an ordinary person, yet she caused many of them to be arrested.
Did Teacher Zhang leave a mark on her so that someone would keep an eye on her and find an opportunity to take revenge when she arrived in Guangzhou?
Hey, you want to mess with her? Then don't blame her for being determined to eliminate evil completely!
Sure enough, Teacher Zhang paused, then smiled: "What a clever girl, you figured it out, what a pity..."
What's a pity? Ning Yuan didn't know.
But she sensed his arrogance.
Ning Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Teacher Zhang, you're probably not just an ordinary member of a criminal gang, but at least a mid-level or even core member, right?"
Yes, Mr. Zhang, he even has a teacher's work permit and is very familiar with the school's teaching situation.
Beneath their refined or naive exterior lies a chilling aura.
It reminded her of Uncle Liu, who seemed honest but was actually ruthless and cunning in the southwestern county town.
Given his hidden fugitive aura and the woman's obvious fear of him, she guessed that this Teacher Zhang was likely one of the core members.
Teacher Zhang's expression changed slightly at this moment.
