Wubai happened to be in the department.
When he learned that Jiang Chunian had arrived, he hurried over to see her: "Master Uncle, I heard from Master that you saved someone from the heavenly tribulation last night? Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known about this, I would have crawled back to cheer for you and Master last night."
What was the cheering? He just felt bad for missing out on this miracle that might never happen again in his lifetime.
I won’t be able to brag to my children and grandchildren when I’m old.
Jiang Chunian could see through his little thoughts and teased him deliberately: "Hey, why didn't you say so earlier? If you had told me earlier, wouldn't I have asked you to come back? I thought you were diligently catching people outside, but I didn't know you were so capable. It turns out you had already finished your work long ago."
These words made Wu Bai beat his chest and stamp his feet even more.
"Okay, stop being so cute." Jiang Chunian said with a smile: "Why are you back? Are you done with your work?"
"Except for the person in charge in the south who is still at large, all the others who should be arrested have been arrested, and all those who should be summoned have been summoned." Wu Bai's tone became serious: "Master uncle--"
"You should just call me Sister Jiang. You're calling me so old for no reason." Jiang Chunian couldn't help but interrupt him.
"Okay, Sister Jiang." Seeing Jiang Chunian's persistence, Wu Bai didn't argue with her over such a small matter. He continued, "Sister Jiang, you have no idea how many women have been harmed by them."
"How much?" Jiang Chunian asked.
"There are at least thousands of people in the four districts and the whole country." Wu Bai said solemnly.
"Thousands of people? Then why didn't any news leak out before?" Jiang Chunian felt strange.
Wu Bai said, "Because nearly five or six hundred people have died."
Jiang Chunian's face changed when she heard this, but she soon understood.
Making a deal with the underworld might give you what you want in the short term, but it can be detrimental if you're contaminated by Yin Qi. Many women have unknowingly been contaminated by Yin Qi, which then erodes their bodies, ultimately killing them early.
Jiang Chunian paused and said, "None of them felt that this was strange, and none of them thought of asking for help?"
"Maybe, maybe not." Wu Bai sighed, "We are only arresting people now. We need to interrogate them one by one to get the full picture."
"What about the girls who are still alive?" Jiang Chunian asked, "Have they all been found?"
"Most have been found, and some are still being searched for," Wu Bai said. "But we rescued a few girls before. They didn't sign the indentures voluntarily, but were kidnapped and kept like pigs. Those people made a fortune from selling them to the brothels, while these girls fell into hell and could not be reborn even after death. Some girls are even mentally retarded. They have no ability to protect themselves and can only be slaughtered. The more I think about it, the colder my heart becomes. I wonder how many other girls have suffered such harm in the corners we don't know about. And that person in charge of South City, I must bring him back, otherwise this scourge will be lingering outside and will always be a disaster for the people."
Jiang Chunian patted his shoulder and said, "In just a short time, you've already rescued so many people. You're amazing. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. As long as you keep working hard, you will definitely be able to save more people and bring justice to more victims. And all of this is your merit."
"No, the biggest credit goes to you, Sister Jiang. If it weren't for Sister Jiang, things probably wouldn't have gone so smoothly," Wu Bai said. "Sister Jiang, you know what? I wasn't convinced by you at first, but after witnessing your strength this time, I'm completely convinced. The other employees of the Ninth Department are the same. They all really want to learn from you, but they're afraid you won't be willing. Also, you're busy with this matter and can't spare the time."
Jiang Chunian smiled and said, "You want to communicate with me? What's so difficult about that? When you're all done with your work, take a day off and we'll do some team building. We can talk freely then."
"Really?" Wu Bai's eyes lit up. "Then I'll tell everyone about this right away and make everyone happy."
Jiang Chunian leaned closer to Wu Bai and said, "Then I'll tell you another secret: Last night, your master also used the second-level Demon Subduing Pestle to resist the heavenly tribulation. Now that it's been tempered by the tribulation thunder and imbued with its aura, its quality and power are far superior. This must have been prepared by your master specifically for you. Work hard and try to accumulate enough merit as soon as possible so you can exchange it for it. Don't let your master down."
Wu Bai's eyes instantly turned red: "Master is so good to me."
"Then work hard and don't let him down." Jiang Chunian smiled and said, "Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go see Tian Ling."
"By the way, how is Tian Ling's health?" Wu Bai asked, and followed Jiang Chunian to Tian Ling's side.
"I heard that his health has improved a bit." Jiang Chunian said.
Wu Bai said: "So the reason you came back this time is..."
Jiang Chunian nodded.
"That's fine. This will be good for everyone." Wu Bai said.
Soon they arrived at Tian Ling's residence.
"Miss Jiang, Taoist Wubai." Tian Ling was very happy to see the two of them. She said to Jiang Chunian, "Miss Jiang, the doctor said that my health has improved a lot and I can--"
Tian Ling refused to touch her belly with her hands. She hated the baby in her belly so much that she didn't even want to mention it, let alone show any maternal love.
She now wants to abort the fetus as soon as possible.
