"Human...human trafficker?" Zhou Guihua's eyes went dark when she heard this and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Yang Kangjian, who was next to her, saw it and helped her up in time to avoid any harm.
"Where's Fucai? Fucai, come back soon, it's time for dinner." Shen Cuicui was in a panic and didn't care about Zhou Guihua. She went out to look for her while calling out.
Yang Fucai had gone out to play as usual in the afternoon and hadn't returned yet. They all thought he was playing with other kids in the team and didn't think much of it. As a result, they heard Song Yuan's announcement just now.
Human traffickers...human traffickers...impossible...Her Fucai just went out to play and hasn't come back yet...It's impossible that he was abducted by human traffickers.
The family didn't dare to think about this and immediately began to look for him in a panic. However, after asking everyone they could, no one had seen Yang Fucai.
"Fucai...my Fucai..." Shen Cuicui covered her heart and couldn't help but sit on the ground, her eyes blurred with tears.
"Now is not the time to cry. Get up quickly and continue looking for Fucai." Old Yang said with a serious face and continued to look outside.
Meanwhile, Song Yuan had just gathered the men in his team at the wheat field. Time was pressing, so he took a quick look around and, feeling that most of them had arrived, he began to speak:
"There are human traffickers coming to our brigade now. A child has already gone missing from the production brigade next door. There's a chance our brigade might have children in trouble too. We need to hurry and look for them. Maybe there's still a chance to rescue the child."
"If this trafficker isn't caught, who knows how many children will suffer, and no one knows which family will be next. So, this time, everyone in our team must work together, not only to save a few families on the verge of collapse, but also to save our own future."
After Song Yuangang finished his mobilization speech, he continued: "Now I will make some arrangements..."
After hearing Song Yuangang's words, everyone in the group was filled with indignation. Most of those present were fathers, and some were grandfathers, with children at home. Hearing that human traffickers had kidnapped a child, they couldn't contain their anger.
"We must find that human trafficker today and send him to jail!"
"You have no conscience. You are not afraid of retribution for doing such a wicked thing!"
"If I catch him later, I'll break his legs!"
“
Captain, please make arrangements quickly and we will go find someone."
"Yes, Captain, we'll search however you say."
Song Yuangang did not delay and quickly divided the areas for them. Then everyone started looking around together.
Some were responsible for searching within the brigade, some were responsible for the surrounding areas, and the rest all went to the back mountains to search. The back mountains were difficult to search because the area was too large and more dangerous, but it was also the place where human traffickers were most likely to hide.
Song Aiguo and Song Aimin went to the back of the mountain together. It was getting dark and their field of vision was shrinking. If it got completely dark in a little while, it would be even harder to find the person.
After arranging the search, Song Yuangang did not sit idle, but immediately went to the Yuejin Production Brigade next door. He had to tell Gao Zhifu about this matter so that he could also take precautions.
The sky gradually darkened, but no one in the Hongqi Production Brigade or the Yuejin Production Brigade was resting. Everyone was running on the road, looking and shouting.
Even though it wasn't their child who was missing, everyone was searching very diligently. No one was lazy, and no one complained of being tired.
......
At that moment, the Song family gathered in the main hall, anxiously awaiting news. A kerosene lamp sat in the middle of the table, illuminating everyone's worried faces. The younger children also knew about the possibility of a child being abducted, and their brows furrowed slightly.
"I don't know where this trafficker is hiding. I have a feeling he's probably hiding in the back hills."
"If I hide, it might be a good thing. I'm just afraid..." Sun Suyun didn't say the rest of the words. If I hide, there is still a chance to find him. I'm just afraid that the person has already left.
If he really left, where can I find him?
Feng Guizhi's mind was in a mess, especially when she looked at Baoya and Yuanbao, she thought about how they were almost kidnapped by human traffickers today, which made her feel a little scared.
If Yuanbao had been less vigilant at that time, if that human trafficker... Feng Guizhi closed her eyes, and her hands on the table were trembling slightly.
Feng Guizhi didn't want this to happen again. She couldn't sit still any longer. She opened her eyes and looked at Yuanbao and asked, "Yuanbao, where did you meet that person today?"
Yuanbao thought about it carefully, then told the location and direction.
Feng Guizhi thought about it and roughly knew the direction. She stood up and prepared to go to the back mountain to look for it.
We must find this human trafficker.
"Mom, are you going out?" Chen Xiuxiu was stunned when she saw Feng Guizhi's actions and said.
"Yeah." Feng Guizhi responded without saying much.
However, Chen Xiuxiu and the others knew that Feng Guizhi was also going up the mountain to look for her.
Yang Yulan quickly stood up and said, "Mom, I'll go with you."
Today, not only Feng Guizhi was terrified, but Yang Yulan was even more so. So, even though she was usually gentle, she mustered up her courage and decided to go to the back hill with Feng Guizhi to look for someone.
There were countless children in the hands of human traffickers, and those children represented entire families. Her Baoya had almost become one of them, so now she felt particularly empathetic and wanted to go out and help.
Song Jianye also said, "I'll go with you."
Afraid that Feng Guizhi and Yang Yulan would disagree, Song Jianye added, "My leg is healed, and I promise nothing will happen again. I'll definitely be extra careful. I'm worried about you two going alone."
Feng Guizhi hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement.
Song Jianye could now walk like a normal person, and Zhao Rongsheng said he was recovering well. However, just to be safe, he used a cane, which would reduce the pressure on his legs and also serve as a weapon if he encountered human traffickers.
"You guys stay home and stay well. If the kids want to sleep, they can all stay in one room and you can watch over them. You'll have to work hard tonight and you can sleep after we get back."
Chen Xiuxiu and Sun Suyun both nodded. "Okay, we understand, Mom. You guys should be careful on the road, and it would be best if you could ask Aiguo Aimin to come along."
Feng Guizhi nodded in agreement, then walked in front carrying the kerosene lamp, followed closely by Yang Yulan and Song Jianye.
However, when Baoya saw them about to leave, some scenes flashed before her eyes. She became anxious and immediately took a step forward to chase after them.
"Grandma, take me with you." Baoya walked forward, hugged Feng Guizhi's legs, and looked at her with her head tilted up.
Seeing this, Chen Xiuxiu quickly came over to pull her over: "Baoya, be good. Grandma and the others are going to do some serious work and can't take you with them. Why don't you stay home and play with Sister Yunduo?"
But no matter what she said, Baoya never let go. She looked at Feng Guizhi with a frown on her face, and kept calling, "Milk, milk..."
Seeing her somewhat abnormal behavior, Feng Guizhi
She immediately frowned. She looked at Yang Yulan, the two of them exchanged glances, and then looked at Baoya. She felt that Baoya might have known something.
Feng Guizhi lowered her head and thought for a few seconds, then reached out and held Baoya's hand: "Let's go."
Chen Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment. "Mom, take Baoya with you..." She was about to say that it wasn't safe to take Baoya to the back mountain, and that since they were going to find the traffickers, it wouldn't be convenient to take Baoya with them. But then she stopped talking. Feng Guizhi was always thoughtful and considerate, so she didn't need to remind her of these things.
Feng Guizhi took Baoya, Yang Yulan and Song Jianye away together. Soon their figures disappeared in the night, and only a faint light could be seen gradually moving away.
When the four people were going up the mountain, they met people from the team. Feng Guizhi asked Song Aiguo and Song Aimin for directions, and soon they met each other.
Feng Guizhi told them the location Yuanbao mentioned, and then expressed her own thoughts and guesses: "Let's go over there and look for it. If the trafficker hasn't left, he might be hiding somewhere nearby."
The back mountain was difficult to find. Firstly, it was dangerous up there, so no one dared to go. Secondly, the area was too large, with no clear destination or direction. However, Feng Guizhi figured the trafficker wasn't afraid of death, and he might not dare to go up the deep mountain. Plus, it would be inconvenient with a child. So she decided to go back to the spot where Yuan Baobao had encountered him, hoping she could find something.
"Okay." Song Aiguo and Song Aimin had no objections and walked ahead. However, they later discovered that Baoya had also followed.
"Baoya girl?" Song Aiguo was stunned. He didn't expect Baoya to appear here.
Feng Guizhi didn't say much, just said briefly: "Bring her over here to help her get familiar with the route."
Song Aiguo opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end. However, he and Song Aimin became more cautious afterwards. If there were any weeds or vines nearby, they would be pushed aside to avoid scratching the precious buds.
The mountain road was difficult to walk on, especially since it was dark. The adults were fine, but Baoya couldn't help but stumble. But she didn't say a word, just followed beside them, eyes wide open, carefully identifying the direction.
After a while, several people arrived at the place where Yuanbao and Baoya met the human traffickers in the afternoon.
"Let's walk a little further." Feng Guizhi said after looking around.
They are preparing to
When going up, Baoya stood still and did not move. Then she pulled Feng Guizhi with her little hand and pointed to the right.
Feng Guizhi looked at Baoya, then turned and went in the direction she pointed: "Come over here first."
......
Ni Eryong looked at the faint light in the distance, squatted down immediately, then turned around and said viciously to the three children behind him:
"All of you shut up and don't make any noise. Otherwise, let's see who will save you faster, or I will break your arms faster."
The three children behind him huddled together and nodded, not daring to say a word.
The faint moonlight shone down on their faces. It was Liu Dazhu, Erdan, and Yang Fucai that everyone was looking for.
The three little ones looked at the light in the distance through the tall grass, hoping that they would be discovered and rescued.
Slowly, the light got closer...
