Chapter 66 Chapter 66 Then he took another look, his eyes...
Fang Nan followed Jiang Zai's gaze and looked straight ahead, spotting two men who looked like bad guys. Although he had never seen the man chasing them before, Brother Yi's reaction told him that the man in front was also a bad guy.
Oh my God, are there still bad guys blocking them in front?
Jiangzai took Anan's brother's hand and stepped back a few steps before stopping, because he could clearly hear footsteps coming from behind, which gradually became very clear, and then became very light.
He slowly turned his head in fear, only to be greeted by a cruel, terrifying grin on Zhang Qiangzi's rough face. Jiang Zai couldn't describe it. Although the villain's mouth was wide open, his teeth bared, it was still terrifying, very frightening.
Fang Nan also turned his head, and after seeing it, he burst into tears. Jiang Zai was also scared, and followed suit by crying out loud. The intensity of his crying was even no less than that of Fang Nan, who often threw tantrums and cried a lot.
Seeing this, Zhang Qiangzi thought to himself, this isn't good. The most frightening thing about this kind of thing is making a big noise. If you can cheat, don't steal; if you can steal, don't rob. Otherwise, you'll always get into unnecessary trouble. Even if trouble does arise, they won't be afraid, but it will always take some effort.
He immediately ran over. The two people on the opposite road were also startled, but they reacted quickly. Seeing that there were few cars around, they also ran over.
The three grown men were about to surround the two children.
On the same side of the road, Xu Zhining, who was wearing casual clothes and leaning against the car body smoking, was stunned when he heard what seemed to be a child crying. He looked in the direction of the crying and his pupils shrank slightly.
Then he threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground, casually twisted it with his foot, then slammed the car door shut, took a step forward with his long legs, and walked over.
Zhang Qiangzi just ran to the two children and looked at the two boys howling with their eyes closed. He was about to cover one of them to prevent them from getting upset by their crying, but he didn't expect a voice to come from his ear.
"What are you doing?" The tone was very stern and authoritative, as if this person had been speaking to others in this way for a long time, the kind of attitude used by an authority to speak to a lawbreaker, or by a superior to an inferior.
Zhang Qiangzi looked up and saw a tall man standing in front of him casually, even with one hand on his waist, staring at them intently, as if he was looking at garbage.
Zhang Qiangzi was very sensitive and was immediately annoyed, but he knew that now was not the time to cause trouble, so he could only suppress it and said unhappily, "What's it to you? This is our family business, why don't you stay out of it?"
He knew from the man's attitude and the aura around him that he was not an ordinary person, and he just wanted to say a few perfunctory words to ask the man to leave quickly.
What a coincidence! Xu Zhining could tell at once that these three people were not ordinary people. Then, looking at the two children in the middle, he knew what these three people did. They were probably guilty of quite a few crimes.
"Oh, it's your own family affairs, I can't tell you!" Xu Zhining snorted and then raised his eyes.
Jiang Zai and Fang Nan, who were at the center of the incident, didn't quite understand what was happening. They just knew someone seemed to be coming. Their eyes were blurred with tears, and although they stopped crying, they were still sobbing and hiccuping.
Although Xu Zhining was worried about the two children who were still with the human traffickers, he also knew that he was alone and the other party was three people, so he could not act rashly.
Although judging by his movements and reactions, and the gun he carried, the traffickers definitely couldn't escape. But considering the two children still with the traffickers, one had to think a little more: what if these people were desperate criminals? If he revealed his identity, what would happen if they felt threatened and hurt the children?
So he still maintained his previous posture, but his hands on his waist had quietly moved a little, so that he was ready to respond at any time.
"I know those two children. They're from my neighbor's family. As you know, the locals here are all from different clans. If you kidnapped two of their children, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape from this area."
Xu Zhining said half-jokingly and half-threateningly.
Of course, the human traffickers had also heard such news. Their colleague had previously run to a village to steal children, but they didn't expect that everyone in the village had the same surname. After hearing the news, they quickly united together and found their colleague. Then the angry villagers beat the human trafficker to death.
Originally, a person had died, and even if it was a criminal, there had to be an explanation. However, because the village was very united, some respected elders even stood up to take the blame for the young people who killed people in anger. The people from the Public Security Bureau had no choice but to send the people back in a special car.
Li Li and Yang Shitou also knew the news. They were always following the news on this topic, and they weren't ruthless, so they weren't afraid. Besides, with this kind of child trafficking, the parents had already found out, so how could they kidnap the children? It was better to run away as soon as possible, since they already had a few children. Although these two children were of good age and good looks, it wasn't worth the risk!
So, the two people who had the same idea looked at their boss hesitantly after hearing what he said.
Zhang Qiangzi put his hand on a child's shoulder, lowered his head and thought about something, then asked: "You said this is a child you know, how do you prove it?" The human trafficker Zhang Qiangzi was no longer pretending, this sentence directly revealed his identity.
Xu Zhining curled his lips, "I know the child's name!"
Zhang Qiangzi didn't say anything. He looked at him, then at the two little guys standing next to him, and then raised his chin, which meant that you can try shouting. If you shout correctly, they will let the person go. If you shout incorrectly, it means you have recognized the wrong person, so stay out of his business.
Xu Zhining nodded, then took a step forward and called out, "Jiang Zai?"
His voice was loud and clear, and Jiangzai heard it immediately. He rubbed his eyes, then raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice.
Jiang Zai's eyes were a little confused at first, as if he didn't recognize him, but then they quickly brightened up and he shouted excitedly, "Uncle?"
He recognized that this uncle was the one he met when his mother took him on the train. The uncle was also a policeman, which was very impressive.
He waved happily at Xu Zhining.
This time he wasn't afraid at all. Jiang Zai then turned his head to look at Fang Nan. Although he didn't say anything, his state had already given Fang Nan a lot of comfort. Fang Nan also looked towards Xu Zhining and couldn't help but follow Jiang Zai's call and shouted "Uncle".
Xu Zhining responded with a smile.
Zhang Qiangzi's face became very gloomy when he saw this. He lifted Fang Nan up to the level of his eyes.
Seeing this, Xu Zhining couldn't help but take a step forward, then stopped. All the muscles hidden under his clothes were tensed, but his face still showed no abnormality.
Jiangzai was replaced by another person to hold his shoulders. Seeing his brother Anan being treated like that, his face was filled with fear and worry.
"Boy, tell me, what's the name of the kid next to you?" Zhang Qiangzi even acted more ferocious and spoke viciously to Fang Nan.
Fang Nan was suddenly lifted into the air, being pinched and lifted up. This was not the comfortable and fun posture his father usually used to tease him.
The trafficker's grip was quite strong, pinching his armpits so hard that it hurt. Fang Nan had never suffered such an injustice before, and he felt both pain and fear. The bad guy's big face was staring at him so close, and he had stopped crying, but he burst into tears again.
Zhang Qiangzi was furious and cursed, "You are such a loser! Stop crying! If you keep crying, I'll throw you onto the street! Why are you still crying?"
Fang Nan was so frightened that she stopped crying. She grinned and looked at the fierce face in front of her, full of fear.
"Tell me, what's the name of the guy next to you?"
"Call him Brother Ayi." As soon as Fang Nan finished speaking, Zhang Qiangzi showed a sinister smile at the corner of his mouth and looked at Xu Zhining who was standing over there, as if to say, just watch!
But Fang Nan looked at the child and added hesitantly, "I called him Jiangzai before, but he insisted that I call him brother or Ayi brother."
Zhang Qiangzi's smile froze, and he turned his head to glare at Fang Nan, "You little brat, you only say half the words." Then he looked at Xu Zhining unwillingly, thinking that if it wasn't this person, even if the biological father of the two children came, he would have to take him away.
He threw the man to his feet, then gave his two brothers a look and urged them in a low voice: "Shitou, Lizi is gone, retreat."
After saying that, the three of them ignored everything, crossed the road, got in the car and ran away.
Fang Nan was thrown to the ground and probably hurt herself, so she cried miserably.
As soon as Jiangzai was free, he ran to his side to see how his brother Anan was doing.
Xu Zhining noted the direction the traffickers left and the license plate, and quickly walked to the two children.
"How is it, kid?" Xu Zhining squatted down and spoke to Fang Nan.
The hateful human trafficker threw the child directly to the ground. Although it was at his feet and the force did not seem very strong, it cannot be ruled out that the child might have been injured on his hands.
He went forward and checked roughly, and it should be nothing serious, so he patted his little head: "It's okay, don't cry, you are not broken, and it will not hurt in a while. The bad guys are gone now, uncle is a policeman, I will take you home later!" Xu Zhining comforted.
When Fang Nan heard that he was a policeman, she sat up from the ground and asked sobbingly, "Uncle, are you really a policeman?" There was still a look of doubt on his little face, which was red from crying. It seemed that the child was scared, but it was good to be a little vigilant.
Xu Zhining laughed: "Of course it's my uncle. If you don't believe me, ask Brother Jiangzai. He knows my uncle, isn't he Jiangzai?"
Xu Zhining looked at Jiang Zai. He had recognized the child before, so he came over without hesitation. Otherwise, he would have to judge the situation first.
There was no way around it. This child and his mother had left such a deep impression on him. This wasn't just any mother, so he didn't find it strange that the four-year-old had recognized him so quickly after such a long time.
After all, a tiger mother will not have a dog son!
Jiang Zai nodded vigorously, "Uncle is really a policeman, a very powerful policeman!"
Xu Zhining was obviously a little embarrassed by the child's sincere praise. He pretended to cough and then said to the two children who were almost abducted, "Come on, get in the car. Uncle will take you to the police station first."
Xu Zhining knew where Jiang Zai lived. He had driven him back home because his mother had helped them at the station. However, he only knew the approximate location, as he had only driven him to the entrance of the alley before the mother and son went back on their own.
However, now it is not just a simple matter of sending a child you know home, it also involves child trafficking, and you must first go back to the police station to register the situation.
"Jiang Zai, how did you meet the bad guys?" Xu Zhining was driving the car and asked after glancing at the two children sitting obediently in the back seat in the rearview mirror.
Jiang Zai then told the whole story in detail, and his words were very clear. Xu Zhining nodded while driving, and he understood everything.
Then he took another look, and there was even a smile of relief in his eyes. It seemed that the child had been well educated, and had made much progress in both expression and other aspects compared to what he had seen on the train before.
In the car, Li Li was driving and Zhang Qiangzi was sitting in the passenger seat, smoking fiercely with a gloomy face, still angry about what had just happened.
Yang Shitou coughed twice in the back seat, leaned forward, glanced at his eldest brother's face, and then said, "Brother, I thought you were going to take those two kids away today no matter what. What a pity for those two boys."
Li Li also turned his head to take a look: "Yes, brother, this is not like your style."
Zhang Qiangzi took two long drags on his cigarette, then tossed it out the window before turning to his two brothers, "What do you know? You probably only know that the man just now was no ordinary person, but do you know what he does?" He sighed before continuing, "He's a cop. Look at his hands. They appear to be casually placed, but he's actually ready to draw his gun at any moment."
Li Li and Yang Shitou were both a little surprised. They didn't realize that it was a cop.
"Brother, you are so awesome. How did you figure that out? I didn't even see it." Yang Shitou said.
Zhang Qiangzi glanced at him and said, "If you didn't see it, you're stupid. If I saw it, I'm not stupid. She deliberately revealed it to me. Not telling you directly, but revealing a little bit for you to see, is the real trick!"
It didn't break the situation at the time, causing things to fall into an irreversible deadlock, but it also made people feel threatened. Zhang Qiangzi also understood that the man was a powerful character, and he didn't want to fight to the death. Since he said he was a child he knew, he simply went along with it and left.
Run first and talk later, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
