People who come to the street to buy things are all shopping on the roadside.
Ji Hao walked with big strides, stopped in front of a grain store, stepped onto a higher step, and looked around with a calm expression.
In the crowd, his eyes quickly locked onto two men who were acting strangely.
Their figures seemed somewhat out of place in the bustling market. They looked panicked and their eyes were wandering. They looked around like two headless flies, as if they were looking for someone.
After confirming that the two people were within his sight, Ji Hao hurried to the door of the telephone booth and paced back and forth.
As soon as the people inside came out, he quickly went into the phone booth and dialed the number.
Soon, the phone was picked up.
Ji Hao didn't dare to waste time, fearing that the person might escape. After answering the phone, he got straight to the point and said, "Hello, this is Ji Hao. I'm in the center of North Street, near the grain store. I found two suspects who are suspected to be accomplices of human traffickers. Requesting support. I'm at the door of the grain store."
He reported in a deep voice, explaining the situation clearly in just a few words.
"Okay, I'll notify them right away. They must hold them back and don't let them run away!" The person on the other end immediately agreed and went to give the notice after hanging up the phone.
Recently, the authorities have paid special attention to cases involving human traffickers and have reopened several old cases one after another.

After receiving the note from Liu Zhen, Meng Wanyue felt confused and just looked around to see if there were any suspicious people. She didn't dare to wander around the street anymore.
I originally planned to go out to buy some vegetables, but ended up returning empty-handed.
She walked quickly all the way back home, fearing that Liu Zhen would suddenly come to her house and threaten her identity, so she arrived home in a short while.
At this moment, Cheng Nianhua was still embroidering flowers in the house. When she heard footsteps coming from outside the yard, she immediately looked over.
Seeing that Meng Wanyue had nothing in her hands, Cheng Nianhua was a little confused. He stopped what he was doing, frowned, and asked her, "Wanyue, didn't you go shopping for groceries? What's wrong? Where are your things?"
Meng Wanyue was stunned for a moment, her heart suddenly tightened, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind.
Liu Zhen suddenly appeared and was thinking about her money. She probably wouldn’t give up just like that.
Her current situation was very tricky, but she must not let Cheng Nianhua notice it.
Thinking of this, Meng Wanyue exhaled a breath of foul air, tried to calm herself down, and forced a smile, "Mom, I accidentally fell when I went out, and then when I went to the street to buy something to pay, I found that I had no money in my pocket."
Meng Wanyue felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke. "I thought the money must have fallen out when I fell, so I ran back to look for it. But when I got back, it was gone. I guess someone else picked it up."
Meng Wanyue looked confused as if she had done something wrong. When she mentioned these things, she kept her head down and her voice trembled a little: "I'm sorry, Mom. I was careless and delayed things. I also lost money for nothing. I didn't mean it."
"I'll go again later."
Looking at Meng Wanyue's appearance, a complex emotion flashed in Cheng Nianhua's eyes.
Her clothes were clean and even her hair was the same as when she went out, neat and tidy. How could it look like she had fallen?
Cheng Nianhua knew that Meng Wanyue was lying, but she didn't ask any further questions because she had already guessed what had happened.
Recently, as soon as An An appeared, Meng Wanyue's parents also came. If Meng Wanyue was really not a child of the Meng family, then the series of events that happened would definitely scare her.
Afraid of exposing his identity.
She guessed that she had met someone who threatened her identity on the street, which was why she didn't even dare to buy groceries. In order to avoid him, she hurried back home.
Cheng Nianhua sighed silently, feeling a little disappointed, but did not show it.
She put down the embroidery frame and needlework in her hands, stood up and walked to Meng Wanyue, patted her shoulder, and comforted her in a gentle voice: "Okay, okay, these are all small things. As long as you are okay, are you hurt?"
Meng Wanyue's expression eased a little after hearing Cheng Nianhua's words. She shook her head and said, "No, I didn't fall very hard and I'm not injured. Mom, I'll go back later..."
Cheng Nianhua knew that she was waiting for her to refuse and that she was just pretending, but she did not expose her and continued speaking along with her words.
"No need to go. Didn't you fall? Take a good rest. Your Aunt Zhang next door just delivered some vegetables, freshly picked from the vegetable garden. I'll cook later. You take a rest first." Cheng Nianhua waved his hand, his voice gentle.
Meng Wanyue nodded and agreed, "I'll help you."
After Cheng Nianhua turned around and went into the house, he quickly put away the smile on his face and felt extremely complicated.
She continued to embroider the handkerchief in her hand and couldn't help sighing a few more times. The more she thought about it, the more frightened and heartbroken she became.
It was all her fault for not judging people well at the beginning. She always thought that Meng Wanyue was just naive and cunning, but at least she was not a bad kid. She was not only well-behaved and obedient, but also quite filial.
So she was willing to support Meng Wanyue all these years, not letting her work or go out to find a job.
But I didn't expect that she was an impostor, and her name might not even be Meng Wanyue.
Because she assumed someone else's identity, another little girl suffered for so many years.
Thinking of this, Cheng Nianhua couldn't help feeling disappointed.
Meng Wanyue was involved in matters related to human traffickers, and she couldn't convince herself to give her another chance.
How could he be so cruel looking at such a gentle and well-behaved girl?
Cheng Nianhua clutched the embroidery frame in his hand, his fingertips tightened slightly unconsciously. He couldn't help but look up at Meng Wanyue in the yard, and suddenly a terrible idea came to his mind.
She was a little skeptical, did Jing Yuan’s sacrifice have anything to do with Meng Wanyue?
-
Lu Huaiyan didn’t know about the sudden discovery of the human traffickers until the next day.
He and Ji Hao had known each other for a long time and were neighbors in the same alley. When he was out on business, he passed by the police station and happened to meet Ji Hao who was rushing back.
As soon as he saw Lu Huaiyan, Ji Hao immediately waved at him and called him.
"Huai Yan?"
When Lu Huaiyan heard his name, he frowned and turned to look over, and then met Ji Hao's gaze.
After seeing the face clearly, Ji Hao smiled immediately and walked over quickly, "It's really you! I thought I was seeing things!"
Before Lu Huaiyan could speak, Ji Hao raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, smiling and saying, "This time, it's all thanks to that person in your family. He gave me the opportunity to make a contribution!"
Lu Huaiyan was somewhat puzzled when he heard what he said, and frowned and asked, "The one from my family?"
Ji Hao nodded, "Yes, it's your fiancée, Miss Jiang! This time it's all thanks to her!"
