Everyone present could feel Yan Jingwen's deep despair after hearing this. This despair came from being beaten again and again in vain, being violated time and again and having no response from heaven or earth, and being forced to become a breeding tool and lose her dignity.
Gu Xi interrupted Chang Ru and said, "The police will be here soon. Please cooperate with their investigation. After the investigation, go to the town hospital to check your leg and see if it can be healed. You can live in our village until your family comes to pick you up. Don't worry, we are the first to come to the village and we will not do anything illegal."
Yan Jingwen looked at Wu Yao: "Secretary Wu, when can we go to rescue the remaining people? Will the police rescue them?"
The police happened to have arrived: "Secretary Wu, I heard that your villagers came to report the case, but they didn't explain clearly what happened, just that they said there was trafficking in women. What's going on?"
Wu Yao pointed at Yan Jingwen and said, "This girl is the one we rescued."
Wu Yao recounted the entire incident. The policeman listened and looked at Yan Jingwen: "Tingzi Village, we checked before we came here, and there is no record. Are you sure it is called Tingzi Village? Do you know the way to enter the village?"
Yan Jingwen's face turned pale and he nodded: "I don't know how to get to other places. I haven't been out of the village for a long time, but if I find the river I saw this morning, I will know how to get back."
The police nodded: "Okay, take us to find out the situation."
Gu Xi immediately asked, "You two are the only ones taking her to find out what's going on? That might be dangerous. Yan Jingwen just said that you can't do anything about the behavior of the entire village, and your life might even be in danger."
The police looked at each other and said, "We are police officers. How can we be in danger? Can they attack us?"
Yan Jingwen shook her head in fear: "I won't go. They killed a policeman before, and the villagers pushed a fool out to take the blame. The police couldn't do anything. I finally escaped, and I can't go back and fall into their trap."
The policeman was a little impatient: "How can we investigate if you don't go back? How can we save people? Aren't there still people who haven't been saved?"
Gu Xi said, "If you can't find out, you can ask the Youth Educated Office to investigate. It must have been a big fuss at the beginning before they stopped sending the Youth Educated Office. What Yan Jingwen needs now is to go to the hospital for a physical examination and treatment."
The police officer immediately asked loudly, "Didn't she call the police? How can we investigate if she doesn't cooperate? If you don't want to cooperate and don't trust the police, then don't call the police. If you have the ability, go and rescue her yourself and investigate on your own."
Wu Yao was so angry at the two policemen that he slammed the table: "If we have the power to enforce the law, why do we need to call the police? Wearing this police uniform, I don't ask you to make a great contribution, but at least do your job well."
The police didn't expect someone to dare to slam the table: "What do you mean? Do you want to insult the police? I'll arrest you and interrogate you first. I think you are a group of people wasting police resources."
The two policemen were very young, and the other one was more easy to talk to. The two of them whispered to each other: "My senior brother told us to handle the case well and do it beautifully. You can't cause conflict like this."
But the police officer still looked difficult to communicate with: "We need their cooperation to handle the case properly, and now they refuse to cooperate and even slam the table. This is outrageous!"
Wu Yao had seen all kinds of situations: "Okay, I will go to see your director in person later. Don't waste each other's precious time. You can go back now."
The other party smiled contemptuously: "A small branch secretary who works as a farmer is looking for the director, pretending to be important, and even calling the police. We have come such a long way here, and we are thirsty and tired along the way."
Before Wu Yao could lose his temper, Wang Xu took out two ten-dollar bills and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Use them to buy cigarettes."
The good-natured policeman waved his hands and dared not take it, but the arrogant man snatched it away: "If you don't take it, I will. Let's go."
The two men patted their buttocks and left. Wang Xu looked at their backs and said, "Uncle Wu, my money smells like osmanthus. When you go to see the director later, tell him that my money was stolen."
Wu Yao reacted immediately: "I was wondering why you are so easy to talk to, but it turns out you are scheming."
Looking back at Yan Jingwen's desperate face, he comforted her: "Xiao Wen, don't worry, I know their director very well, they will rescue you and protect you, this matter must have a result."
Chang Ru and Lin Ling accompanied Yan Jingwen to the town hospital, and Wu Yao went to the police station in person. Qingmiao Village had been present in the town and the police station in the past year or so. In addition, Yue Hongming had visited there, and Wu Yao himself had military merit, so even the director did not dare to offend him.
When the two young policemen saw the chief personally receiving Wu Yao, they were so nervous that sweat broke out on their foreheads.
After more than half an hour, the director came out with a sullen face and asked: "Did you two take someone else's things?"
The young policeman who was so domineering just now suddenly became weak and took out the money tremblingly: "I... they gave it to me, not me I asked for."
The director took the money and returned it to Wu Yao: "Starting today, we will rectify everything and not take a single penny from the people. You two should go back to school and study again. Notify everyone to attend the meeting."
Before Wu Yao set off, Gu Xi reminded him that now was a critical moment for the higher-ups to select and employ people, and the director must be anxious to move up. This case was of great importance, and if it was handled well, he would definitely be credited with a great achievement, and then he could ask Wei Qingzhe to write a report to praise and publicize it.
The pie was drawn big enough for the director, so big that he couldn't refuse it and took a bite of it.
Not only the police chief, but other leaders in the town also wanted to seize this opportunity to show off and worked very hard.
Yan Jingwen went to the hospital to see her leg, and the doctor said there was nothing she could do. She could only try to correct it and then do rehabilitation training. She would be able to recover 80% of it, but it would be impossible to be exactly the same as before because it had been delayed for too long.
Yan Jingwen has been worried about other victims in the village: "Secretary Wu, when will the police come to rescue them? They helped me escape today, but they will definitely be beaten half to death when they return."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help crying again. Chang Ru couldn't bear it: "These girls are all miserable people."
"If I use the method that Gu Xi taught me, I think there will be results soon."
Indeed, results came out very quickly. The leaders and the police set up a special task force to conduct an in-depth investigation into the various crimes in Tingzi Village. Fourteen women who had been forced were rescued and the injured were sent directly to the hospital.
The village chief and all those involved in the incident were arrested and detained, while the rescued women were placed in temporary residence, waiting for their families to pick them up.
The leader even specially asked someone to send clothes and food to them. Gu Xi came up with an idea and paid out of her own pocket to make banners for the girls and sent them to the police station and the leader's office. She also asked someone to take photos.
Wei Qingzhe wrote the report specifically to alert everyone and guide positive public opinion. These women are victims and should be treated kindly. The reports used pseudonyms and no personal information was disclosed in order to protect the victims.
This incident caused a great sensation and was singled out for praise and commendation by the higher authorities. Most of the people involved in the case were promoted one level or rewarded.
The criminals involved in the case were caught as typical examples and dealt with severely, and all the surrounding villages were checked. If the same thing happened, they would be severely punished.
