After leaving Xiao Zhenguo's house, Wang Dabao stood downstairs in the cold wind, lit a cigarette, and pondered Section Chief Hu's words.
Of course, it wasn't the sentence that he decided to make Xiao Su his wife.
Instead, he asked Wang Dabao to inquire about connections with the cunning and corrupt officials in Beijing.
Section Chief Hu said he watched Xiao Su grow up, which means he has a thorough understanding of the girl. He and Xiao Zhenguo and his wife share the same idea that something must have happened, rather than some other reason such as going to a friend's house.
The best outcome right now is that she'll run into someone taking pictures of flowers; as for anything else, a young woman in the prime of her life simply can't imagine.
But if someone is caught taking pictures of flowers, the consequences will be just as severe. Hopefully, the person hasn't left Beijing yet, otherwise things will be difficult!
Child abduction exists in every era. Even in modern times, with advanced technology and cities almost entirely covered by surveillance cameras, there are still many cases of missing children every year, and most, or even 90%, are never found.
Aside from children, women were also victims, especially female college students in later generations.
Flower pickpocketing usually involves gangs, with middle-aged women often luring women and children, using methods such as deceiving or drugging them.
Afterwards, accomplices will meet them, transfer the women and children away, determine the price based on their condition, and sell them to old bachelors in remote mountainous areas who cannot find wives, or to some organization.
Older children are cruelly mutilated and harvested, and then exploited to make money from the public's sympathy.
In his past life, Wang Dabao encountered a similar situation when he went to a nearby hospital for an IV drip due to diarrhea. A young woman in her early twenties had just stepped out of the consultation room when an older woman grabbed her.
I asked the little girl if she had any illness, and the older woman seemed to have the same illness. Then the older woman said she knew a hospital that specializes in treating this.
Just then, another woman came over, and coincidentally, she also had the same illness.
Then the older woman and her sister discussed going together, and then they persuaded the little girl to go with them. They heard that the consultation fee was quite cheap. The little girl didn't have much of a say, but she was also eager to get better, so she reluctantly followed them out of the hospital.
Wang Dabao found it strange and followed them.
As soon as the three of them stepped out of the hospital, the woman waved for a taxi, and soon a black cab pulled up.
As the car pulled up, Wang Dabao, who was following behind the three, felt dizzy because of something reflective inside. He was already weak from diarrhea and almost fell over.
Looking ahead, the little girl wasn't in much better shape either; if it weren't for the older woman and her sister supporting her on either side, she would have already been lying on the ground.
The vehicle was a minivan. The driver got out and opened the door, and the older women helped the little girl get in.
Wang Dabao was a man who hated evil, and when he saw the little girl struggling, he immediately understood what was going on—she had run into a human trafficking gang.
Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed a shared bicycle from the side and rushed forward. After all, he was 1.8 meters tall and weighed 80 kilograms, so even with diarrhea, he still had some strength.
They grabbed shared bicycles and started smashing them against the windshield of the van.
The four people, including the little girl, were all dumbfounded, and many passersby gathered around.
Seeing that the driver not only did not become angry, but instead kept looking around with evasive eyes, Wang Dabao immediately knew that his guess was correct and shouted that these people were human traffickers.
But the human traffickers were well prepared for such a scene, perhaps because they had encountered it before, or perhaps because they had rehearsed it many times, so they were not afraid at all.
Instead, she falsely accused Wang Dabao of being her daughter's suitor, claiming that her family had taken the girl to the hospital today, but unexpectedly Wang Dabao had followed them there.
Seeing the reactions of those around him, Wang Dabao's head started spinning.
At this moment, the girl realized what was happening and seized the opportunity to grab Wang Dabao's clothes and hold on tight. This action drew pointing fingers and whispers from the onlookers, who scolded the girl for letting her parents down.
Keep in mind that this was in front of a major hospital in the 21st century. Even with a crowd watching, these human traffickers did not give up their idea of taking the girl away.
It was Wang Dabao who seized the car keys, which scared off the three human traffickers.
This is a bit of a tangent, but it's enough to show that the art of shooting flowers transcends time; it's always been around, and its techniques and ideas are constantly evolving and being updated.
After finishing his cigarette, Wang Dabao threw it on the ground and stomped on it.
He said to the security guards behind him, "Let's go find Feng Biao."
...... ......
At the Xiao family home, Section Chief Hu was comforting Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Zhenguo.
"Don't worry, Zhenguo. Dabao is reliable and will definitely bring Susu back safely."
Section Chief Hu patted Xiao Zhenguo on the shoulder, "Your sister-in-law has been clamoring to introduce Susu to a potential partner. Now that you've met Dabao, if you're satisfied, don't let me break my promise."
As he spoke, Section Chief Hu glanced at Xiao Zhenguo's listless wife and subtly gave Xiao Zhenguo a meaningful look.
Xiao Zhenguo wiped his eyes, realizing that Section Chief Hu was trying to distract his wife.
"Brother, I'll listen to you. I've heard about this Section Chief Wang. I heard that last time when the factory was escorting classified materials, they encountered enemy agents, and he killed nine of them all by himself. Is that true?"
“It’s absolutely true, because I was there. I was right next to him when he fired the gun. That’s why I’m so sure he can bring Susu back.”
Section Chief Hu patted the coffee table in front of him and said, "This kid is meticulous in his work, not the kind of reckless brute. I don't have a daughter, otherwise I wouldn't have let you have her."
After exchanging a few words, Xiao Zhenguo's wife's eyes seemed to light up when she heard that Wang Dabao could bring Xiao Su back safely.
She couldn't help but turn her head and look at Section Chief Hu with teary eyes: "Brother, are you telling the truth? Can he really bring my Susu back?"
"This kid is incredibly capable. He's led troops into battle and made countless contributions. Now we're just having him find someone. As long as Susu hasn't left Beijing yet, she won't get lost."
Section Chief Hu wanted to distract Xiao Zhenguo's wife, but he didn't dare to say anything definitive.
"But don't worry, sister-in-law. If Susu loses even a single hair, Dabao will dare to kill half of the snakes and rats in this city. Then those people will have to obediently send her back."
"He...he's that amazing? I think he's only a year or two older than Susu!"
“What do you know? Rumors in the factory say he has hundreds of lives on his hands. My brother just said that he witnessed the killing of nine enemy agents, which means the rumors are true.” Xiao Zhenguo breathed a sigh of relief. “It seems that Su Su’s life depends on him.”
Xiao Zhenguo's wife also stopped crying and kept nodding.
It has to be said that women are born gossips.
Before their daughter had even arrived home safely, Xiao Zhenguo's wife was already planning for the future. "Brother, this Da Bao you mentioned is your deputy section chief, right? Where is he from, and who else is in his family?"
Before Section Chief Hu could reply, Aunt Zhao, who was standing to the side, became anxious.
