When the wooden boards in the basement were opened again, the girls guarding below looked up in horror. Only after seeing that it was Wei Ci did they relax and release their hands that were covering the children's mouths.
They were still young and didn't understand anything. They had been crying for their mother and grandmother since they woke up. They had no choice but to cover their mouths to prevent them from attracting the people above.
"Come out! Hurry up!"
The effect of the drug only lasts for four hours. They must take this opportunity to leave early, otherwise she would have been exposed to the cold wind for so long in vain.
The girls' eyes lit up, and they carried the child out first, and then crawled out one by one, moving carefully for fear of attracting the attention of those people.
"Comrade, how do we leave?"
The sudden question startled everyone. They looked around quickly and only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that no one was coming.
"Comrade Meng, don't speak so loudly."
The petite girl tugged at Mengwa's clothes, signaling her to be quiet.
Meng Wa withdrew her puzzled look towards the front yard, nodded absentmindedly, and looked at Wei Ci who was holding the boy with a fever. She didn't know what she had done to make those people quiet down.
Wei Ci waved her hand to signal everyone to follow her and walked towards a collapsed corner in front. There was a hole there that had collapsed many years ago and had not been repaired. Although it was not big, it was more than enough for them to crawl out.
So, the girls held their children, bent over and knelt on the ground, carefully crawled out behind Wei Ci, and then turned left and right and came to a quiet and secluded alley.
"From here, does anyone remember the way out?"
The girls walked out one by one, and after looking around, the petite girl raised her hand excitedly.
"I know where this is! This used to be the landlord's villa. Later, they fell into poverty, their home was vandalized, and half of the house was demolished. Cross this alley and walk two blocks down, and there's a police station there!"
Off-topic: (In 1946, the public security organs established offices, which were renamed public security sub-stations in 1948 and police stations in 1950.)
Police station? It's the government office, right? What a strange name.
And I have to say, this group of people really know how to find a place. The most dangerous place is the safest place. They are good at playing in the dark.
With someone leading the way, they quickened their pace and walked towards the police station.
The Xiangyun Police Station is destined to be in turmoil today. A parent came to report that his child was missing, and several children were found at the same time. This is a serious matter.
Unexpectedly, just as they started to take the matter seriously, several girls came up with their children to report that they had been abducted. What was even more outrageous was that they led the police to catch the traffickers and directly wiped out their den.
"Name."
"Wei Ci."
"gender."
"female."
"Where do you live? How were you abducted? Explain the whole story clearly."
Wei Ci sat obediently on the chair, her peach blossom eyes sparkling and her well-behaved appearance made the female police officer who was taking notes beside her feel heartbroken.
Wei Ci was confused. She really didn't know where to live.
"I only know that the village is called Ma Gou Tun, and that everyone in the village has the surname Wei or Li."
The two police officers were surprised. She was actually a country girl? She didn't look like one.
The clean little face was as white as jade, with delicate features, and her every move was indescribable, just like the ladies from the old days. How could such a person be a country girl?
Wei Ci ignored their doubts, thought for a moment and added a few more words.
"I was sold by my own brother for two Great Unity tickets."
As he spoke, he stretched out two slender white fingers, with a serious expression, and nodded vigorously to confirm.
Two police officers, a man and a woman, looked at each other, somewhat surprised and somewhat not surprised.
What’s surprising is that she is so beautiful and has a clean temperament. You can tell at a glance that she is favored at home. How could she be sold?
It wasn't surprising that someone with this goblin-like appearance would actually be sold. For some reason, I felt a complex emotion for a moment, and even sympathy filled my eyes as I looked at her.
In the past two or three years, natural disasters have continued. They don't know about other places, but they are currently facing food shortages and famine. I heard that there have been cases of people starving to death in some production brigades.
In the past two years, among the women and children they rescued from human traffickers, some of the women were sold by their families. After they were rescued, their families did not accept them, and there were also cases where the women refused to return to their original homes even if they were beaten to death.
"By the way, among the people who came with us, there was a girl named Meng Wa. I suspect she is also a human trafficker."
She had long noticed that something was wrong with the girl. When the others were sent to the basement, they were all unconscious, but she was the only one who was awake. Not only that, the others were thrown down, but she was the only one who was sent down carefully.
When she saw herself untied, she was surprised but not happy. She even made noises countless times to attract people's attention. Moreover, she was very familiar with that yard.
When they were pulled up, no one else knew where the human traffickers were, but she turned her head directly and accurately and looked towards the room where the human traffickers were.
After telling her aunt all her discoveries and suspicions, Wei Ci relaxed a lot, a smile appeared on her face, and she started to praise herself in her heart. She must be the saintly bitch that her aunt mentioned, right?
Auntie: Is that what I taught you? Do you understand? Who told you that this is how to use the word "sanctimonious bitch"?
Upon hearing this, the two police officers who were questioning the matter suddenly became serious. After asking a few more questions, they hurriedly opened the door and went out to verify.
Wei Ci sat upright on the chair, with an expression as well-behaved as possible. Her eyes darted left and right following the people walking back and forth, and almost everyone could see the curiosity on her face.
