The entire village of Hamaowo was placed under martial law.
Let alone Li Xiangdong and Zhou Hongsong, two grown men, even if a fly went in, they would have to check whether it was male or female first.
Li Xiangdong thought to himself, "It seems something big has happened again."
Zhou Hongsong asked, puzzled, "Why is this 'Toad Nest' so tightly guarded, like an iron barrel, and even more strictly managed than our Lijiapo?"
This level of martial law is definitely not normal.
Li Xiangdong felt a chill run down his spine.
Zhou Hongsong parked the Santana at the intersection by the village, turned off the engine, and the two of them got out of the car to check the situation.
Zhou Hongsong took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. He casually leaned against the front of the car, gazing at the tall, magnificent, and imposing Nine Dragon Wall at the entrance of the village.
After watching for a while, he flicked the ash from his cigarette and said to Li Xiangdong next to him, "To be honest, when it comes to pomp and circumstance, you really can't compare to them."
Li Xiangdong smiled wryly.
"It's said that there are young boys and girls buried under the Nine Dragon Wall. Do you think that's true?"
Li Xiangdong shook his head. "Who knows!"
The two stayed for a while longer, until the sun disappeared behind the clouds and night fell.
Zhou Hongsong stamped his foot. "I don't think we'll be able to get into the village today. Shall we go home and come back another day?"
Li Xiangdong nodded. "That's the only way."
Just as the two got back into the car, Li Xiangdong caught a glimpse of a disheveled little girl running out of the woods beside them.
Li Xiangdong's eyes narrowed. Who is this?
Zhou Hongsong followed his gaze and turned his head to look over. "Huh? What's wrong with this child? He looks like he's been beaten up?"
The wide, flat road was unusually quiet, with only Li Xiangdong's Santana parked on it.
The little girl ran towards the Santana like a madwoman, then frantically pounded on the car window.
She screamed at the top of her lungs, "Take me to the police station right now! Take me to the police station right now! Someone's been killed... Someone's been killed..."
Li Xiangdong's heart sank again. How could someone have been killed again?
Zhou Hongsong glanced at Li Xiangdong, "So? Are you bringing him or not?"
Judging from the direction the little girl came from, she must have run away from Hamaowo Village.
Such a disheveled appearance must mean something bad happened. Combined with the previous events of Guo Xunjie leading people to kill Shen Yutian, Zhou Hongsong had a gut feeling that this little girl was related to Shen Yutian.
If they take this little girl to the police station to report the case, it will be clear that they have made an enemy of Guo Xunmin, the actual person in charge of Hamaowo.
Guo Xunmin is currently the village party secretary of Hamaowo and one of the top ten entrepreneurs in the country.
But it is said that he had a close relationship with Nie Si from Qingdao in private.
This Nie Si is a gang leader!
Even if they really offend Guo Xunmin, they wouldn't be afraid of him, but it's always better to avoid trouble.
Li Xiangdong naturally thought of this as well.
As the two were pondering, they suddenly heard faint footsteps and the roar of a car engine in the distance.
The little girl glanced back, her face filled with terror, and her pounding on the car window became even more urgent.
"Please, please save me! Please! If you don't take me away, they'll catch me and beat me to death! Please! Please..."
Li Xiangdong took a deep breath, quickly unlocked the door, and opened it.
"Get in the car!"
The little girl was very agile. Just as she closed the car door, Zhou Hongsong stepped on the gas pedal to the maximum.
With a loud bang, kicking up a cloud of dust, the Santana sped away like an arrow released from a bow.
Just then, a group of men wielding sticks rushed out, muttering curses as they watched the Santana drive away.
"That little girl from the Shen family must have gotten into this car!"
"Drive after them! Stop them!"
"Yes, we absolutely cannot let them go to the police station!"
"..."
Zhou Hongsong dared not relax for a moment, turning on the headlights to look at the road ahead while observing the situation behind him through the rearview mirror.
Sure enough, several cars quickly caught up from behind.
Zhou Hongsong pressed his right foot firmly on the accelerator, not daring to relax it even slightly.
Fortunately, they successfully entered the urban area of the Red Sea District.
Following the girl's directions, Zhou Hongsong drove the car directly into the police station's courtyard.
Honghai District Public Security Bureau.
The little girl sat opposite the two policemen with a terrified look on her face. Zhou Hongsong and Li Xiangdong were sitting on the bench next to her.
The police officer opposite clearly recognized the little girl.
"Xiao Shen, what's wrong? What happened again?"
The little girl's voice was filled with terror, "They killed people, they killed people again, they killed my dad and then they killed my brother..."
By the end, the little girl's voice was trembling with sobs.
Upon hearing this, the policeman who was taking a statement frowned and slammed his pen heavily on the table.
"This Guo Xunmin is simply lawless!"
The little girl suddenly started wailing.
“They…dragged my brother out and whipped him to death…wait…they whipped him until his back was covered in blood, not a single piece of good flesh left…they also locked up my mother, brother, sister, and sister-in-law…they wouldn’t let us come out to call the police…I ran away secretly, and they wanted to take me away…”
The police officer looked at Li Xiangdong and Zhou Hongsong beside him, and they both shook their heads. "We don't know what happened before. We just happened to run into this little girl, so we brought her here."
Finally, a policewoman came over, calmed the little girl down, and took her away.
