Chapter 103
People who help others smuggle across the border or engage in human trafficking are called snakeheads.
In Shaocheng, there are many people working in related professions.
It’s not that they don’t know that such behavior is wrong, but in the face of huge benefits, they made the wrong choice.
The one who was doing business with Brother Jiu and his friends was the biggest human trafficker in the area, a man known as Brother B.
Brother B often hangs around the border between Shaocheng and Myanmar, and often conducts various trades with other Southeast Asian countries.
"It is said that he is a very principled person and would never do business with illegal drugs. If he knew that the other party was involved in these things, he would stop cooperating with the other party."
Yu Yao and his companion came here pretending to be refugees who wanted to seek asylum abroad. They dressed up a little and no one looked at them strangely. There were many strangers in this place every day and these people had already gotten used to it.
After what happened before, Yu Yao also summed up her experience. Now she is not suitable to dress up as those poor girls who grew up in the countryside. Others can see it from the details.
But she played the role of a rich girl in distress very well.
"Bah! A man who is engaged in human trafficking tells me that he has principles. What bullshit principles." Yu Yao pulled the scarf around her neck, which made her neck a little itchy.
Gu Qing did not comment. Some people always like to make excuses for their mistakes. Such shameless people are quite common.
"That's what I mean, so we have to be careful when dealing with him. Anyway, we still follow the previous rules. Life safety is the most important, and everything else comes second."
Yu Yaodao also agrees with this point. What could be more important than your own life?
"I know, and you too, just take care of yourself. You should know that I can protect myself."
Last time their situation was equally dangerous, but they managed to get through it safely, and I believe this time will be no exception.
The two walked on the street, bought something to fill their stomachs, and then sat in front of a water stall waiting for the person they had an appointment to meet.
Yu Yao never forgot to maintain his own persona. He sat there with a worried look on his face, as if he didn't know what to do next.
Gu Qing plays the role of her brother, not her biological brother, but the son of the nanny, who is responsible for ensuring her safety, so he appears to be stronger and only seems a little servile when facing Yu Yao, but at the same time he has to stay by Yu Yao's side all the time.
Soon, a woman in a long dress came to Yu Yao and asked, "Excuse me, are you Miss Shanshan?"
The woman has dark skin but sexy thick lips and a hot body. She can be described as charming.
Compared to her, Yu Yao is just a little white rabbit.
Gu Qing quickly stepped between the woman and Yu Yao and asked defensively, "Who are you?"
The woman smiled coquettishly, "Don't you want to go abroad quietly? Come with me, our boss wants to see you."
"Who is your boss?" Gu Qing said with a stern face, not showing any sign of backing down.
Seeing him like this, the woman didn't get angry. Instead, she wanted to reach out and touch Gu Qing's face, but the latter dodged her.
"Hey, young man, you came to our territory, but you want us to do things for you without giving us any benefits? How can you be so idealistic?"
Gu Qing wanted to say something else, but his sleeve was pulled by someone behind him.
He turned around and looked at Yu Yao, then he said calmly, "Lead the way."
The woman smiled even more brilliantly and walked in front with her hips twirling, while Gu Qing held Yu Yao's hand from behind.
In this place, it seemed normal for a man to hold a woman's hand. Everyone's eyes were on the woman in front of Yu Yao and the other man, and they didn't pay much attention to them.
The woman took them to a courtyard with a very tropical style and stopped.
She knocked on the door and someone soon opened it.
"I've brought the goods. Go tell Rose. Both goods are good."
The woman glanced at Yu Yao and the other person from time to time and found that they ignored what she said and even looked a little confused. She guessed that Yu Yao and the other person didn't understand what she said and laughed even more brilliantly.
Yu Yao and his companions certainly did not expect to avoid being targeted in this unfamiliar place.
In their opinion, the two men had no background, otherwise they would not come in person to trade with them. Trading with this group of people was no different from trading with a tiger.
But since the food has been delivered to them, why wouldn't they eat it?
After hearing what the woman said, the man also glanced at Yu Yao and the other man. When he saw Gu Qing, his eyes lit up. Compared with Yu Yao's serious appearance, Gu Qing's handsomeness obviously attracted him more.
"Come with me," he said in Chinese.
The woman smiled at the two of them and led them into the yard.
The yard was not small. After walking through a small lawn and passing a corridor, you reached the backyard. Several people were waiting at the door. The man who opened the door just now went in and said something, then came back quickly to let them in.
There was a swimming pool inside. A man and a woman were lying on chairs beside the swimming pool. When they saw Yu Yao and the other man, they looked over.
Yu Yao was surprised. What does it mean to finally get something without any effort after searching for it everywhere? If the man sitting next to the woman is not Brother B, the ultimate destination of their trip, then who is he?
"This is Brother B, and this is Sister Rose." The man introduced them briefly and quickly left.
Yu Yao greeted him politely, like a student who was about to start a defense.
Brother B's eyes swept over her body up and down. That look was enough to make Yu Yao curse him a hundred times in her heart, but Yu Yao just lowered her eyes and said with some worry: "Brother B, we want to go abroad. Please help us."
The other party did not say whether he agreed or not, but said: "I heard that you came here because of a tragedy at home. I wonder if you would be able to tell me about it."
"Yes... yes..." Yu Yao hesitated to speak, as if he really couldn't say it.
"I'm sorry, Brother B, it's not convenient for us to talk about our personal matters. If Brother B can help, we will definitely give you a generous reward. Please help Brother B."
When Gu Qing spoke, Brother B turned his gaze to him.
Sister Rose next to him immediately said, "Brother B, I like this boy, how about giving him to me?"
Brother B glanced at her and asked, "Are you going to cheat on me?"
"No, we are just playing our own games. Don't think I don't know that you like this Miss Shanshan. Brother B, these two are mine."
The two of them started discussing their affiliation right in front of Yu Yao and the other two, assuming that Yu Yao and the other two didn't understand. Yu Yao was speechless.
After talking for a while, they seemed to remember that Yu Yao and the other person were with them.
Brother B said, "Since you are all in trouble, what reward can you offer us? Why don't you show it to us?"
Yu Yao and Gu Qing looked at each other, and Gu Qing rummaged around in his pocket and took out an emerald ring, which he had bought when they went to Hong Kong City. Although it was not the best in Gu Qing's collection, it was enough to make these people's eyes light up.
"This is a family heirloom of my Lin family. As long as Brother B can help us, I will give it to you with both hands." Yu Yao looked very sad.
Brother B laughed a few times, "Who asked you to come to our Rose?"
The two of them were startled, but then they heard him say, "Do you know what kind of place Myanmar is? How did you live there?"
"Brother B, you don't need to worry about this." Yu Yao looked as if she didn't want to talk to him any more, and she could only suppress her temper till this point.
Unexpectedly, her behavior aroused Brother B's interest. Brother B asked, "If I take this thing away now and don't help you, what will you do?"
Both of them looked nervous, and then Gu Qing stepped forward and said, "Then you can see if you can bear the consequences."
"Oh? What do you rely on to challenge me here? How strong is that?" As soon as Brother B raised his voice, the people protecting him drew their weapons at the same time.
The dark muzzle of the gun was immediately pointed at Yu Yao and the other man. Yu Yao shrank closer to Gu Qing, pretending to be very scared.
But in fact, she was really a little scared in her heart. This was her first time facing such a scene.
Gu Qing hugged her and asked, "What does Brother B want?"
"I don't want anything. I just want Miss Shanshan to play with me for two days. When I've had enough fun, I'll naturally take you to wherever you want to go."
After saying that, he changed the subject, "But I advise you to stay in Shaocheng and please me here. At least there will be people to protect you. If you go abroad, it may not be the same. You may be eaten alive on the road."
"You threaten us!" Yu Yao said angrily.
"Ms. Shanshan is quite smart." Brother B did not hide his shamelessness at all.
Yu Yao said bitterly: "Everyone says that Brother B is the most principled, but I didn't expect that he is just like this. Brother Shen, take me away. I have no family anyway. The worst that can happen is that we die here together." After saying that, she snatched the ring from Gu Qing's hand and threw it far out of the yard. Of course, the ring she threw out this time was definitely not the one that Gu Qing had just shown.
People had no time to think about how this little girl had so much strength. They just watched helplessly as a good thing disappeared from their sight. That thing was worth a lot of money.
He thought it was his, but now it was thrown away. Brother B was furious, "You are looking for death!"
He stepped forward and tried to attack Yu Yao, but was stopped by Gu Qing.
"Find it for me, bring it back!" Brother B didn't touch Yu Yao, and sat back down irritably.
"You originally had the capital to negotiate with me, but now you have nothing. Why do you think I will keep you alive?"
Yu Yao pulled Gu Qing aside and said, "You are just a villain who doesn't keep his word. Why do you think we will still cooperate with you?"
"You don't want to cooperate, do you really want to die?" Brother B got angry, and it didn't look fake, which made Yu Yao lose the confidence to speak.
She pretended to be strong, but was so scared that she whispered, "Who told you that we have nothing left? Haven't you read a book? Don't you know what a cunning rabbit has three burrows?"
It's true that Brother B really didn't know what "a cunning rabbit has three burrows" meant, but this didn't prevent him from understanding Yu Yao's words, which meant that Yu Yao and the other person still had something good.
He originally thought they were just two idiots from the mainland, but now it seems that he was wrong.
Brother B said, "In that case, what happened just now is my fault. I will apologize to Miss Shanshan. Now let's talk formally. I am willing to send you abroad. What can you give me?"
Now it was Yu Yao's turn to take the initiative. Yu Yao asked, "Didn't you say that going abroad is not a good idea? It's better to stay here."
Brother B was stunned. He hadn't been embarrassed by a woman for a long time, especially a woman who looked harmless.
"Of course, if you are valuable, I am willing to keep you here, and I will also be willing to protect you well, provided that you can bring good things."
Yu Yao glanced at Gu Qing, and the two looked at each other as if they were communicating with their eyes. After a moment, Yu Yao said, "You have to let us go back and discuss it. I'll give you an answer in two days."
Brother B also knew that it was his reaction just now that made them suspicious, so he didn't push them too hard at this moment. Instead, he said to Rose, "Find a few people to protect them well and don't let anything happen to them." After saying that, he didn't even look at Yu Yao and the others and just left.
I guess he was quite angry about what Yu Yao had done just now.
He has been in this place for so many years, but he has never done a business at a loss. He first stabilized the people and he would have taken a lot of pain from the two men sooner or later. In fact, the few people he sent to protect Yu Yao had already made his attitude clear.
It is protection, but it is supervision.
Knowing his character, Rose did not make things difficult for Yu Yao and the other two, and found four people with good skills to send them back.
There were quite a few people who came to her hospital and returned safely. When the two of them left, Rose couldn't help but take a second look at them. When she saw Gu Qing's tall figure, she really had some thoughts.
It's a pity that she has to depend on Brother B now. She can say it verbally, but if she really does something to make Brother B cheat on her, it will definitely make Brother B angry, and she dare not do that.
Yu Yao and the others also noticed the atmosphere between them.
Yu Yao already had a plan in mind on how to deal with the two of them, but she still had to discuss it with Gu Qing.
The two of them are now living in a local hostel. No letters of introduction are needed here. As long as you have money, you can stay wherever you want. Of course, there is no guarantee of safety.
Because the two of them were dressed in a low-key manner and Gu Qing looked like a capable fighter, they stayed here for two days without being noticed by anyone.
When he came back this time, two big men followed him, which scared the people in the hostel.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? You have to pay extra for bringing people back." They are two such scary men, so they must be charged extra.
Yu Yao glanced at the two people who followed her. The remaining two must have been either changing shifts or guarding somewhere else.
She smiled at the innkeeper and said, "I didn't bring them here. If you don't want them in, just kick them out."
Boss: “…” He doesn’t dare.
Just when he was in a dilemma, one of the two men took out money and slapped it on his desk. The boss stopped talking immediately and made a gesture of "please treat me" to invite the two men upstairs.
Yu Yao and Gu Qing didn't care whether they followed them or not. She believed that even if she and Gu Qing didn't want them to follow, they would definitely follow anyway. After all, they came here for a mission.
Sure enough, as soon as the two entered the house, they felt movement outside the door.
Yu Yao and his partner cleaned up and washed up as usual, and only when they lay down on the bed did they discuss their next plan.
"What kind of person do you think this Brother B is?" Gu Qing did not hold back when he said this, presumably the two people guarding outside could hear their voices.
Yes, they did this on purpose. Since they came to guard a game, they must bring something back.
Yu Yao said disdainfully: "That's all. The name fits the person. You know how to pretend?"
"What do you mean by pretending?"
Yu Yao explained the meaning of showing off in a very emotional way, and then concluded: "It's probably that you think you are the best in the world, but you pretend to be humble in order to achieve the effect of double showing off."
The two men outside the door looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything. This new and strange word was really appropriate to describe their boss. It was just for listening. If their boss really knew about it, they would definitely be the ones to suffer.
"Then should we continue to cooperate with him?" Gu Qing asked again.
"Is there any better choice than not cooperating with him? You can see that he is coming for our things. We must protect those things. They are life-saving talismans!"
"I see." Gu Qing looked out the door and said, "Do we really have to give them those things when the time comes?"
Yu Yao was silent for a long time before speaking, "They are just material possessions. If he can really take us to our destination, why not give him all the things? Aren't we doing this for a better life anyway?"
"I'm afraid he'll try to rob me like he did today."
"It's not like you can't deal with him. We don't want to make enemies, but we have been bullied to the point of being bullied. We certainly can't just sit there and wait for death. Don't blame us for what he did on the first day of the month."
"That's right."
Gu Qing said this and he and Yu Yao pretended to be intimate, and soon they left the door.
Yu Yao was about to talk about business, but Gu Qing didn't stop.
"What are you doing?"
"What if they strike back?" Gu Qing asked righteously.
Yu Yao didn't believe him at all, but what she didn't expect was that not long after he finished speaking, the two men actually came back. It seemed that they were sure that the two men were really doing the job, so they left.
This time Yu Yao did not refuse Gu Qing again. Fortunately, no one eavesdropped, otherwise her sacrifice would be too great.
After finishing the work, Yu Yao was already a little tired, but they still had to discuss things, so Yu Yao could only cheer up and talk to Gu Qing.
"When the time comes, we will just follow them and try to understand their schedule and the people involved. It is impossible to completely prevent this kind of situation here, so we just have to do our best."
Gu Qing thinks that they should be more conservative. It would be better to find out the situation here clearly and report it to the higher-ups so that they can send people to remove these termites. They always have to consider their future.
The two of them can temporarily solve the predicament here but they cannot stay here forever, so it is not advisable for them to show up.
Yu Yao understood what he meant, "Anyway, we should just collect as much information as possible."
"Actually, I have an idea."
"What?"
Yu Yao leaned close to Gu Qing's ear and muttered to himself for a long time.
On the other side, Brother B also got the news soon and learned that Yu Yao and his partner really had good stuff, so he no longer wanted to play with Yu Yao.
It's just a woman. Does he need a woman? And that woman has been slept with by someone else.
Soon he convinced himself and began to wait for Yu Yao and the other man to come to him to discuss business.
However, after waiting for three days, Yu Yao and the other person did not show up, but he got some bad news.
Rose was fooling around with two of his men, and everyone saw it.
"She, and two men?" Brother B asked the person who delivered the message with a little disbelief.
The person who came to deliver the message was originally following Gu Qing and his companions. Who would have known that they would bump into each other by coincidence, causing the two to also watch the excitement.
"Yes, everyone saw it. It's true. There are indeed three people on the bed. It looks like they took something to increase their sexual pleasure."
Brother B's eyes dimmed, "Then why are you still standing there? Go and bring the person to me. I have never seen such a lively scene before. Let me see how exciting it is."
When his subordinates heard Brother B joking at this time, they knew that Brother B was really angry and hurried to catch him.
Rose didn't expect things to turn out like this.
She has been with Brother B for a long time, and he has cheated on her before. After all, Brother B has slept with so many women, so why can't she have her own man?
But she had always been very careful in her actions and had never left any clues behind. Who knew that this time someone opened the wrong door.
It's outrageous that you opened the wrong door.
But before she could figure out if someone was framing her, she was caught by Brother B's men.
Brother B doesn't like her at all, but he doesn't allow her to have her own life. Rose is very depressed but there is nothing she can do. Who makes her depend on him?
"Rose, you are still as beautiful as ever."
When Brother B smiled, Rose became even more scared.
"Brother B, I... I didn't mean it, I don't know..." Looking at Brother B's growing smile, Rose knew she was doomed. She was so nervous that she couldn't speak.
"What's wrong? Keep talking." Brother B reached out and pinched her chin, laughing even more wildly, which made Rose even more afraid to speak.
Seeing that she looked like a dead person, Brother B also lost interest. He wiped his hands in disgust and said, "Haven't you always admired Sister Rose? Come and have some fun with Sister Rose today."
Rose raised her eyes suddenly, not knowing who he was talking to, until she saw the people around Brother B walking towards her, she closed her eyes.
Men are indeed the most cruel.
Yu Yao and the other person had no idea what happened here.
While there was some confusion here, Yu Yao and his companions had already gotten rid of the people who were following them and found another local snakehead named Taizi.
Only in places like this can they dare to be called such a name. If it were two years ago, they would not survive more than three days in the mainland.
But this prince seems more reliable than that Brother B.
"You said you wanted to help me take down Brother B. Why should I believe you?" The prince spoke to Gu Qing without paying any attention to Yu Yao. He obviously regarded Yu Yao as a woman brought by Gu Qing to fill the scene.
His attitude also shows that he is not interested in women.
Gu Qing did the same thing and took out the ring from his pocket.
"This is a meeting gift. If we can win the prince's favor, please help us. Then there will be a more generous gift. However, I believe that being able to defeat Brother B is a great gift to the prince."
The items were delivered directly to the prince, and he naturally understood their value at a glance.
"I heard that Brother B lost an emerald ring that day, and his people have been looking for it for several days. How did it end up in your hands?"
The prince asked lightly, but Yu Yao and the others could sense his probing tone.
Since he knew that Brother B lost the ring, he probably also knew where the ring came from.
Gu Qing laughed and said, "I was just joking with Brother B, who knew he would take it seriously."
The prince raised his eyebrows and touched the ring in his hand, "How do I know you are not joking with me?"
"We are joking about something worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Prince, you are really joking." Gu Qing glanced at the ring and said, "The thing is already in your hand. You can take it for appraisal. We are not in a hurry."
Since they said there was no rush, the prince was even less anxious. "Okay, since you are so sincere, I will consider it."
After he said this, Yu Yao and the other person left tactfully.
It is not difficult to guess what he is thinking. Although he and Brother B are sworn enemies in this place, they are still enemies of each other. If Brother B really dies, it may not be a good thing for him.
But at the same time, he must be interested in Brother B’s resources, and with enough benefits, he can’t help but be tempted.
Yu Yao and the other person never thought that he would not agree, but it was possible that he would pretend to obey but secretly disobey. Anyway, the two of them were not really trying to help him deal with Brother B, they just wanted to better understand the current situation here through the action.
At this moment, Yu Yao was more worried about Brother B's situation.
"I'm always a little uneasy. Do you think Rose will be okay?"
Gu Qing: "This was her own choice. We didn't drug her. If she wanted to escape, she would have had the opportunity."
"Yes, and she has done so many things that harmed her compatriots. There is really no need to sympathize with her."
At that time, Gu Qing had someone hint to the two that Rose wanted to do that kind of thing with them.
Those two also knew that Rose liked to play around in private, but they were Brother B's subordinates, so how dare they touch the boss's woman.
So the person Gu Qing found gave the two of them an idea: take some medicine and ask Rose for help, and then say that someone drugged them.
The two men really went, completely unconcerned about the knife hanging over their heads due to lust.
Originally, according to their idea, it was just a one-night stand, but they had never expected that someone would open the wrong door, and that they would be seen by many people, and the matter was even reported to Brother B.
This was naturally the plan of Gu Qing and the other two, but no one forced them to make such a choice.
