Xiao Jie was woken up by the noise. He vaguely heard An An Ke Ke crying loudly and a man scolding him.
His head was exploding with pain and he felt dizzy, as if he was on a swaying boat.
At this time, a small hand touched his face, and two small hands grabbed his clothes and pulled him hard.
"elder brother···"
"elder brother···"
An An and Ke Ke cried and shouted.
A man's impatient voice said, "Give them some more medicine! If they keep making such a fuss, they'll be discovered sooner or later."
Another man said: "Who's responsible if you eat like a fool?!"
Hearing these words, Xiaojie suddenly opened his eyes.
In the dim light, he saw An An and Ke Ke's little faces, their faces covered with tears.
He felt his body swaying back and forth, and heard the noise of a car. It turned out that he was not on a boat, but in a car.
I looked out the car window again and saw that the sky was pitch black. It must be covered with a layer of black film. I couldn't see outside from the inside, and I couldn't see inside from the outside.
In his mind, he recalled what happened before he fainted.
These two are definitely either kidnappers for extortion or human traffickers selling children.
His aunt said that human traffickers would give children a kind of medicine to make them fall asleep, but this medicine damages the brain and if people take too much, they will become stupid.
At times like this, you must not panic!
Although his uncle and aunt are not at home, his grandparents will notice that they are gone and will try to find a way to save them.
Xiaojie was thinking about what to do next.
He covered the hand that was touching his face, and he quickly broke the silver bracelet on the little wrist and held it in his palm.
"Brother! Brother!" An An felt Xiao Jie's movements, and there was surprise in her voice.
Xiao Jie supported himself and slowly stood up. He saw the car lights shining on the road ahead, which was bumpy and dusty.
The faint light in the car is the light from the headlights coming through the front windshield.
The man in blue was driving the car, and the man in yellow was standing beside them.
Xiaojie took the two children into his arms and said, "Don't be afraid, your brother is here."
"Hey!" The man in yellow sneered and looked at him, "Not dead?"
An An and Ke Ke huddled in Xiao Jie's arms, still crying. Ke Ke was shaking with fear.
Xiao Jie endured the headache, held Ke Ke and let her sit on his lap, and held An An close, as if the three children were as close as one.
"You won't be afraid if you rely on me." He comforted the two children, "I will protect you."
The two children leaned against him tightly and slowly stopped crying.
Xiaojie then looked at the man in yellow and started negotiating.
Xiaojie said, "If you need money, I have some at home. I'll call home and ask them to send some."
The man slapped him hard on the back of his head, "Do you think we are stupid?"
If he makes the call, they'll be caught!
Besides, the other party paid a high price for this pair of children!
Xiaojie cried out in pain, and Anan and Keke started crying again just as they had stopped crying.
The man in black driving the car said impatiently: "Don't make them cry!"
Xiaojie hurriedly comforted the two children.
He hadn't expected to be able to call home; he was just testing the waters.
After coaxing the two children into silence, Xiao Jie continued, "If you're afraid that I'll reveal your address and the police will come and arrest you, I'll give you my phone number. Call my house and have them send money to the place you specify. You can pay as much as you want."
The man in yellow threw a fist, intending to hit Xiaojie on the head, but he changed his position and hit Xiaojie on the arm. "Who the hell wants your family's money?"
The other party paid so much money, they just needed to send the two children to the designated place, why should they take the risk of making a phone call to ask for money!
Xiaojie screamed exaggeratedly, and Keke started crying again out of fright. Anan cried and waved her fists to hit the man, but was stopped by Xiaojie.
"Tell them to shut up!" the man threatened. "If they cry again, I'll crush them to death!"
Xiaojie has already found out that the man is not an extortionist, but a human trafficker selling children.
Moreover, these two men were annoyed by An An and Ke Ke’s crying!
Xiao Jie said, "That's it. You can sell me to that place too. They are so young, they will definitely cry all the way. What if someone hears us? As long as I'm here, I can make sure they don't cry. Besides, I can work now. Once we're sold there, I can take care of the children and help with the work."
This is his true purpose.
He couldn't let these two men take An An Keke away alone.
Not only would An An and Ke Ke be scared, but as soon as they started crying, these two men would definitely feed them medicine. What if they became stupid?
Wherever they went, he accompanied them and protected them.
Grandpa and grandma must have found someone to rescue them, all they had to do was wait safely.
The two men hesitated for a moment.
The other party originally said that they only wanted the pair of children, and that they wanted a pair of lively and energetic children.
That's why they didn't dare to feed the child too much medicine. It would make the child stupid, and if the other party didn't want it, they would have taken the risk in vain.
Bringing the older child along was purely accidental.
But now that I think about it, it would be okay to take the older child with me first.
Along the way, letting the older child lead the two younger ones saved the trouble of feeding them medicine.
When they arrive at the destination, if the other party does not want the big one, they will find a way to sell it to some illegal kiln to mine coal.
The man threatened viciously, "Take good care of the children and stop making them cry. I'll kill anyone who cries again! And you, don't have any other thoughts, or I'll kill you and throw you into the wild to be eaten by wild animals!"
Xiaojie said calmly: "I know, I know."
The car was bumpy all the way, and An An and Ke Ke were scared. In addition, they had slept too much just now, so they didn't fall asleep at all. They just snuggled in Xiao Jie's arms.
The sky outside gradually brightened, and slowly I could see the sunlight ahead.
This is a dirt road and there is not a single person on the road.
That’s right, they stole the child, so they must have taken a remote road.
The car windows were covered with black film, so the light wasn't as bright as outside, but I could still see what was going on inside the car clearly.
Both men were around forty years old and had dark skin.
The blood on Xiaojie's head had dried and clumped together with his hair. Half of his face was also covered in blood.
An An saw it then, and he thought it was Xiao Jie's face that was injured. He stretched out his little hand and touched Xiao Jie's face, "Brother, let me blow on it for you."
Xiaojie patted the two children's heads and said, "No, brother doesn't feel any pain. You have to listen to him."
"Yeah!" The two children nodded.
The car had been driven all night and the fuel gauge needle had dropped below.
The man in black driving the car said: "The car is running out of gas"
The car drove a little further and got onto a highway.
