Ye Shan gently pushed open the door.
A simple and honest looking man, holding a child in his arms.
The thing in the other hand should be a wild vegetable pancake.
The hungry child grabbed it and started chewing it.
The room was a mess, with a slovenly bachelor and two children.
The most important thing is that he is mute and has no job, so he makes a living by picking up garbage.
No one would have thought that those people would sacrifice themselves so much in order to achieve their goals.
"Search! Search carefully!"
Ye Shan stared at the man closely. Among the three men, she estimated that this man was the most capable of escaping.
When it was time to cook dinner, the people who had been searched were allowed to go home and cook.
The light isn't that good anymore.
Even the police officer nearby thought that this man should not be a bad person.
But he has an officer's ID and asks me to cooperate, so just search him!
The honest man's face was full of fear. He squeaked and screamed for a long time but couldn't say a word.
A policeman stepped forward.
"Don't worry, we're just searching for something and will leave after that. It won't affect your life!"
He even took out a White Rabbit candy that was originally meant for his son from his pocket and handed it to the child, wanting to feed him.
The child stretched out his hands and struggled to grab the candy.
Ye Shan's expression suddenly changed, and she wanted to stop the police.
But until the child took the candy, everything was so normal, and the man seemed to be comforted.
The yard was filled with nothing but garbage. Although everyone complained, they still searched carefully, but found nothing.
As for the rest of the place, there was no furniture at all, and it was obvious at a glance that there seemed to be nothing there except a pile of dirty clothes.
This kind of family is probably so poor that even mice have to avoid them.
Ye Shan was sure that her hearing was correct and the thing was indeed in this yard.
"Can you come out for a moment? I want to see your kang!"
The only place to hide things is probably this kang.
Or there may be some other secret passages or rooms.
Unexpectedly, the man's face suddenly changed. He threw the child aside, grabbed the police officer closest to him, and put a knife to his neck.
The child was thrown into the corner and burst into tears.
Ye Shan frowned slightly.
Sure enough, there is still a problem!
"Calm down, I just want to search your kang. Why are you arresting people?"
A hoarse voice suddenly spoke.
"I didn't expect that a little girl like you could see through it!"
This man seems to have a lisp when he speaks. If it is really just a lisp, then he doesn't have to hide himself as a mute.
It's very likely that he spoke with an accent of some kind.
I've been pretending to be mute for so long that I'm now a little uncomfortable speaking.
The policeman didn't seem to have expected that this person actually had a problem. He suddenly began to regret that he should have seriously considered what the little girl said.
After all, although he is young, he actually holds a position. How can he control it if he doesn't have the ability?
Hearing the noise here, the people in the yard gathered around.
The two families next door also came over, and as more and more people came, they simply formed a circle.
"This mute guy actually has a problem. My God, he's been living here for several years!"
"I felt sorry for him and even sent something to his family..."
Ye Shan was extremely calm. The police officers around her took out their guns and pointed them at the mute hostage.
"It seems you can't escape anymore. Why don't you surrender?"
The mute chuckled and kicked his daughter who was standing beside him away.
"Whether you can escape or not is not up to you. You have to ask this public security comrade of mine!"
"Are you a low-life person? You've been hiding here for so long, and no one has discovered you. You're quite capable."
"But these two children shouldn't be yours, otherwise you wouldn't be so cruel!"
The sister rolled and crawled to hug her brother whose head was bleeding.
Then the two of them huddled in the corner, trembling, as if they had encountered something extremely terrifying.
"Of course not! They were sold here by your own people. I bought them, so they are mine. If I want them to live, they live. If I want them to die, they die!"
Ye Shan played with the pistol in her hand: "This is not up to you!"
Two public security officers had already surrounded the brother and sister, but unfortunately, they seemed unwilling to trust others. Apart from trembling and yelling to prevent anyone from approaching, they did nothing else.
"Look at you, don't you feel wronged at all? People in your own country are enjoying life in their own homes, but what about you? You live in a dirty and messy environment and eat inedible wild vegetable dumplings!"
"Isn't it good for everyone to live peacefully in their own territory? Why do you have to come here and suffer like this?"
The mute seemed unmoved and tried to break through the siege by holding the policeman.
"you……"
Just when he was distracted and wanted to speak, Ye Shan suddenly spat out the leaf in her mouth.
The mute fell straight down, and the knife left a bloody mark on the policeman's neck, but it was not deep.
When everyone gathered around, they found a piece of dogtail grass stuck on the mute's forehead.
It seemed to be the grass that Ye Shan was holding in her mouth when she was doing nothing.
For a moment, those eyes were fixed on her like spotlights.
"Go, some people, lift the kang for me!"
Before, because of the existence of an armed forces minister and Ye Shan’s own position, everyone had to obey his orders, but now everyone is convinced.
Sometimes it is very simple to convince someone, all you have to do is show the corresponding ability.
Ye Shan followed him in and watched the police officers lift up the bedding and carefully check the kang.
The kang is cold and hasn't been heated yet.
Ye Shan frowned and watched them check for a long time, but seemed to find nothing wrong.
"Comrade Ye, isn't there anything wrong here?"
Ye Shan reached out and pushed the person away.
“Make way!”
Then he kicked the earthen kang hard.
The material of the earthen kang is not complicated, it is just some soil and straw, but it has been baked by fire, so it is particularly hard.
However, no matter how hard it was, it could not withstand this kick. Bricks and stones were flying all around, and a small hole that even a mouse could not get into appeared before his eyes.
Ye Shan picked up the special dagger and pried it through the hole.
The upper layer is indeed made of earthen bricks, but they are simply assembled and placed here without any gaps.
There is a wooden board underneath.
Knowing the secret, they quickly took it apart and found a tunnel inside.
It was dark, like a beast that swallowed everything.
