Human nature is always fully revealed in times of crisis.
It’s like the Huang brothers and sisters who have been friends for decades. Once their interests conflict, it becomes clear which is more important.
This was the first time Huang Yao attacked his brothers.
"Little sister, what are you doing? We are family!" The Huang brothers were all mediocre in talent. Even the eldest brother couldn't withstand her medicinal attack. "Yaoyao, stop it! You're only making your loved ones sad and your enemies happy. Father hasn't lost yet, how can you turn against us?"
Huang Yao listened to this with tears in his eyes but laughed out loud.
"Haha, what Peach Blossom Island? You're all just a bunch of idiots with limited vision. You can't even beat me, how dare you dream of taking on those people? Weren't you beaten badly enough on the Mysterious Island? You're just trying to trick me into working for you, and then use me as a breeding ground!"
She acted without mercy, and the powerful medicine released a neurotoxin. The Huang brothers were caught off guard and didn't even have the antidote. In the end, they could only foam at the mouth and fall to the ground.
When she turned around and helped Yu Niang up, her hands were still shaking slightly, but in order to avoid ending up like those people in the cellar in the future, she gritted her teeth and helped Ye Lan help all the girls out.
The noise in the front yard soon subsided, but Xiao Yunting did not come over.
After Ye Lan settled the victims, he looked at Huang Yao, who was silent beside him. "In ten minutes, the police will arrive. You can choose to escape with your brother, or you can choose to remove the drugs from these people."
After saying that, she walked out without looking back, leaving behind a room full of confused girls and the eldest daughter of the Huang family standing alone in the middle.
It was not until this moment that Huang Yao dared to look up at the girl's departing back, and deeply realized how big the gap between him and the other party was.
That's not what money and status bring.
Rather, it is the level of difference created by a person's character and temperament.
When she was panicking and worried that the girl would take revenge on her, the other party left her a way out and gave her the right to choose her own future.
Should I flee far away or make meritorious contributions while guilty?
When Ye Lan walked back to the front yard, Huang Weiren and others had already been carried away. A faint smell of death lingered in the air, and the coast guards who were busy going in and out to collect evidence at the scene all seemed exceptionally silent.
Even Wu Xingjie and Wu Heng just stood aside, glancing at the tall man standing in the middle of the yard from time to time.
The man was still wearing the white shirt and black trousers. His body was spotless and his cuffs were not wrinkled at all, but the veins on his forearms extending from the neat cuffs were slightly bulging.
Internal energy flows through those tendons and veins, and a slight electric current is still emanating all the way to the fingertips.
I don’t know if it was because of the electric current or something else, but no one dared to approach him within three meters.
In such a strange and quiet scene, Ye Lan calmly walked to the man's side, and without hesitation, she grasped the man's hand with her white fingertips and gently interlocked their fingers.
The chaotic internal energy was pressed back into the body in an instant, and after being channeled, it flowed smoothly into the limbs and bones.
"What's wrong?"
She tilted her head slightly to look at the handsome profile of the man beside her. The coldness in her eyes melted like ice and snow in the sunlight, and a hint of warmth flowed through her.
Xiao Yunting moved his stiff fingers for a long moment before clasping the small hand in his palm. He shook his head stiffly and hesitantly, then asked her with concern, "Is everything going well over there?"
"Yeah." Ye Lan replied lightly, with a slight smile on the corner of his lips. He tilted his head to look at Shi Zhong in front of the door and said calmly, "Captain Shi, let's send a few female police officers in to help later."
Shi Zhong had been paying attention to this side. He nodded subconsciously when he heard this. He was stunned for a moment before realizing that the victims were all women and had been detained for such a long time. They were probably not in good condition.
Just now, they were anxious to rescue someone and wanted to go in, but were blocked by Xiao Yunting in the yard. Perhaps the other party was also concerned about this.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and quickly responded: "Okay, then I'll ask someone to go to the village to find some clean clothes, food and water."
After saying that, he smiled apologetically at Xiao Yunting, then turned around to make arrangements.
Wu Xingjie now understood the whole story and realized he had misjudged Xiao Yunting. He then stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Xiao, it looks like your mind has been affected by excessive Qigong practice. I have some medicine that should help you."
He took out a bottle of refined medicine from the medicine bag he carried with him, but when he handed it over, a small white hand reached out.
"Thank you, Master Wu." The girl's voice was clear and pleasant, and she responded as if it was natural, as if acting as Xiao Yunting's agent was the most natural thing.
Wu Xingjie was slightly stunned, raised his eyes to look at the girl, and found that her other hand was still holding Xiao Yunting.
After everyone witnessed the yard full of corpses, no one dared to approach the violent Xiao Yunting. Only she walked up to him without hesitation, holding his hand and never letting go, without asking anyone else about the whole story. It seemed that from the beginning to the end, she only trusted Xiao Yunting and only wanted to hear the truth from him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of his son's thoughts and sighed secretly.
After all, there is no possibility for the two of them.
Ten minutes later, several female police officers entered the ancestral hall in the backyard with clothes and food, and saw a room full of victims crying and shouting after they regained consciousness.
The Huang siblings were taken away for questioning on the spot. As survivors of Peach Blossom Island, they would be investigated in the police station for a long time, and if necessary, special departments would take over.
"After comparing the missing list, all 27 women have been found. They have all suffered varying degrees of abuse. Six of them are pregnant. We will conduct a genetic comparison among the villagers to identify the biological fathers." Shi Zhong almost crushed the information form in his hands when he finished reporting all the information. "In addition, several victims have suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome. We will arrange for psychiatrists to cooperate in treatment in the future."
A total of 27 women were victimized, and the perpetrators were men from an entire tribe. This incident is a major vicious case that many police officers have encountered over the years. Disclosing it will definitely cause an uproar in society.
The deputy captain, who was standing by and assisting with the statement, had a vein bulging on his forehead. He didn't care about his superiors' presence and yelled, "Those inhuman beasts! Scum of society! This case must be judged and condemned by all citizens!"
If his identity did not allow him to do so, he would have started beating people as soon as he entered the village to record his statement.
Shi Zhong was obviously also holding a grudge, so he did not stop his men this time.
Xiao Yunting had already put on his suit again and resumed his usual indifferent and cold demeanor. Upon hearing this, he simply snapped the information sheet shut and said in a cold tone, "This matter will not be announced to the public. When you return to the port, someone will be assigned to take care of it. You don't need to worry about it anymore."
What?
Shi Zhong and the deputy captain were stunned for a moment, their expressions changed, and they said in unison: "Why can't it be announced? Besides, this is our case!"
