Chapter 18 Chen Tang: I’m so scared~
The pain in his neck reached his mind, and Shen Tang gritted his teeth in anger as he glared at the woman.
The woman knew she was in the wrong, so she lowered her head and dared not look at her.
"Chen Tang!"
When He Xu, who rushed over, saw this scene, his heart almost stopped beating.
Fortunately, the man's purpose was not to kill people, but to hold people hostage.
"He Xu."
When Chen Tang saw the familiar person, he couldn't help but his eyes turned red, and tears fell like broken pearls.
It's so infuriating.
It would be fine if that woman had bad intentions in pushing her out, but she doesn't even feel ashamed.
In the end, she was pushed out by someone!
She actually lost because of a big butt!
So embarrassing!
He Xu pursed his lips and clenched his fists.
"Let me get out of here!"
The man was not tall, only about 1.5 meters, and he couldn't hold Shen Tang hostage by himself, so he handed Shen Tang to his wife, and then put the knife to Shen Tang's neck with one hand.
"Get out of the way, do you hear me? If you come any closer I will kill this woman!"
He Xu's dark eyes were cold and creepy, and he suppressed the anger that had accumulated in his body: "Okay, let's get out of the way, and don't hurt her."
Chen Tang was also frightened at first, after all, it was the first time he was held at knifepoint.
But this gangster was not as tall as her, his arms were short, and he had to tiptoe to reach her neck. It seemed... he was not that scared?
Her emotions gradually calmed down, and her eyes looked at the two human traffickers. It seemed that she had to find an opportunity to dodge the knife so that He Xu could rescue her.
"How long will it take for the train to stop?" the male trafficker asked the conductor anxiously.
The conductor quickly comforted him: "We have arrived at the station, don't worry."
The man trafficker noticed the platform outside, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "Then all of you step back three meters!"
"The space on the train is so limited. There's no way to retreat three meters." The female reporter muttered.
The man trafficker heard this, and he turned his eyes and noticed that everyone around him was dressed neatly, even Shen Tang in his hand was wearing a braided skirt.
Greed suddenly flashed in his eyes: "Give me all the money you have!"
The conductor was quick to take it, but the woman who said she was a reporter glared at him angrily: "Why? I don't even know this woman."
He Xu's face was gloomy: "Shut up!"
After saying this, he took out the money he had on him and threw it at the feet of the male trafficker.
The man trafficker looked around at the police officers warily, and whispered to the woman behind Shen Tang, "You come and take the knife."
When Shen Tang heard this, he subconsciously glanced at He Xu.
Just as the two were exchanging knives, she grabbed the woman's hand behind her and moved the knife a few inches away from her neck.
He Xu was also fast. Seeing Chen Tang taking action, he instantly rushed between the two human traffickers and knocked the male human trafficker to the ground with one punch.
The woman trafficker saw the man spitting blood after being punched by him, and screamed "Zhu" in fear. Before he could react, he felt a pain in his hand holding the knife, and his wrist was broken, and the person in his arms was dragged away.
The police rushed forward and quickly subdued the two human traffickers.
He Xu hugged Chen Tang and comforted him softly: "It's okay, don't be afraid."
Chen Tang wasn’t actually that scared, but He Xu was holding her?
The little girl inadvertently rubbed her body against his strong back and cried softly in his arms: "Wow... I'm so scared~"
What a strong body!
He Xu: "..."
The conductor opened the urea bag and found a two-year-old child inside.
The child's eyelashes trembled and he slowly opened his eyes, but there was no emotion in his dark pupils. Several flight attendants thought he was frightened and tried to comfort him, which made the child feel a little better.
Shen Tang cried with tears in her eyes, and couldn't help but glance in the direction of the child a few times.
You know what, this child is really cute, except that he's too thin.
The couple who had walked into the wrong door earlier hurriedly went to hug the child in the conductor's arms, not forgetting to thank Chen Tang and He Xu: "Thank you so much."
He Xu held Chen Tang in his arms without letting go. He glanced at the child's appearance and clothes. Seeing that the couple was about to take the child away, he suddenly called out, "Wait, is this child really yours?"
When the conductor heard this, he immediately stopped the action that he was about to return the child to.
"Of course, it was my wife and I who called the police just now." The man smiled kindly.
The woman next to her calmed down after hearing this and no longer dared to swallow her saliva out of guilt.
The woman claiming to be a reporter also chimed in: "Comrade, I know you are a soldier, but you can't slander others. I just asked this couple, and they are planning to get off the train with their child at the next stop, Ningcheng. They can tell me the child's name and age clearly."
Seeing that He Xu didn't seem to believe it, the man didn't get angry, and patiently explained: "Comrade soldier, I know you mean well, and I also know that you doubt me because my child is too thin.
But I can’t do anything about it. This child just doesn’t like to eat steamed bread and whole grains, and my family can’t eat white rice every meal, so he looks thinner than other children of the same age. My husband and I are already trying to find a solution.”
He Xu looked at him and asked, "Is this the only child in your family?"
The man nodded. "There was only one. We were really worried when we lost it."
He Xu sneered. He walked to the conductor and rolled up the child's upper body clothes. In an instant, the scars all over the child's body were revealed. The little child huddled in the conductor's arms, trembling and blinking his innocent eyes.
Everyone exclaimed, and their eyes suddenly changed when they looked at the couple.
Nowadays, every family would love their baby boy dearly. How could they beat the child like this when they only have one child?
This child might not really be this couple’s!
"Not only does the man have a small belly, but the woman is also slightly fat. They are neatly dressed and can afford sleeper tickets, so they are obviously not short of money.
But this child is so thin, and there are bruises on his body from years of accumulation. I suspect that this child was abducted and abused by them when he was young, so they know this child so well!"
He Xu became suspicious when he first saw the couple and the child.
There are few children these days who are not thin, but it is obvious that something is wrong when the children are so thin while the adults are fat and strong.
In addition, when the conductor held the child, the child inadvertently frowned, as if his wound was pulled, which was why he stopped the conductor from returning the child to the couple.
When the conductor heard this, he also felt that there was something wrong with the couple and frowned warily: "We have arrived at the station. You two should come with us to the police station for investigation."
The man in the couple had a very strong mentality. He panicked for a moment but quickly calmed down.
But the woman's eyes were flickering and she looked very guilty.
Seeing that they were about to leave, He Xu walked up to the flight attendant and gave him a few instructions.
"It's very likely that the child is not theirs. If they refuse to confess, we can start with that woman."
The conductor was very grateful: "Okay, thank you comrade, I wish you a safe journey."
The matter was resolved, and Chen Tang and He Xu returned to the box. Perhaps because of what they had just experienced, the woman who claimed to be a reporter did not come back with them.
The other man who was originally in the box disappeared.
The entire soft sleeper compartment was so quiet that the only sound you could hear was the clanging of the train tracks.
Chen Tang clasped his fingers and glanced at He Xu. Suddenly, he saw a hint of red on his back. "Are you hurt?"
She remembered that He Xu had just rushed to save her, and she felt guilty: "Where is the medicine? I'll help you apply it."
He Xu pursed his lips and looked down at her, obviously in a bad mood.
