Could it be that she was so unlucky as to run into the same group of human traffickers as before? Lin Siya thought about it and felt that it was impossible. If it was that group of human traffickers, shouldn’t they have run away long ago?
In order to confirm her guess, Lin Siya lowered her voice and began to talk to the girl.
"Do you remember how you were brought here? How long have you been here?"
"Well, I remember that day I got off work too late and was walking home alone. Halfway down the road, a man suddenly showed up and knocked me out. That's when I ended up here. I can't remember how long it's been, but those people brought us food every day, one meal a day. Every time they delivered food, I carved a mark on the stone. You can see it's all here."
Following the little girl's hand, Lin Siya saw many crooked marks carved into the wall in the corner with stones. After carefully counting them, she found there were actually more than a dozen. Thinking back to the time when those people disappeared, it really matched! It seemed that this was indeed the group of people.
But why, after such a long time, this group of people are still entrenched here and have not run away, and even the abducted children and women are safe and sound here.
This is totally illogical. Could it be that because the situation outside was too chaotic and the prevention and control measures were too strict, he didn't escape?
But logically speaking, shouldn't these people be more careful? Why did they start committing crimes again today, and I became the unlucky one?
Lin Siya secretly gritted her teeth. What bad luck had befallen her? Just a moment ago, she was happy about buying a new house, and in the blink of an eye, she was in the den of human traffickers. Is this what they call "too much joy leads to sorrow"?
She was a little unwilling to give up and planned to ask another girl and those older children.
"Comrade, comrade, when did you come here?"
The girl kept her head down and hid in a corner. Because of the dim light, her facial expression could not be seen at all.
Lin Siya called her a few times, but she didn't respond.
"Comrade, you'd better not call her. This comrade has been like this since she came here. She ignores you even if you call her."
After hearing what the little girl said, although Lin Siya felt that this girl was a little strange, she didn't say much.
She wanted to ask the children lying on the ground, but before she could do anything, there was a sudden noise from above.
The wooden board above the cellar was lifted up, and then a man climbed down from it, holding a basket in his hand, probably to bring them food.
The man first untied one of the older children, who had a rope tied around his hands, then handed the food to him and stood quietly by.
The little boy seemed to be used to this. He took out the food from the basket and began to feed the children, one bite per person, never feeding more than necessary. During this time, he would also eat a bite himself from time to time.
Lin Siya was stunned by this scene. These human traffickers were too cautious. They didn't even untie the people during the meal.
After the little boy fed all the children, he handed the food in the basket to the man, who carried the food directly to the place where the three of them were pampered.
He directly untied the rope on the girl who had been hiding in the corner, then handed the food to her. Without saying anything, he looked at her quietly, turned around and climbed up the ladder.
The girl was untied all of a sudden. She felt very uncomfortable, but she still took out the food with trembling hands.
He took out his own food and ate it first, then took the food and prepared to feed the two of them.
Lin Siya took a look and found that the so-called meal was just a piece of black flour steamed bun and a bowl of vegetable soup. They were only given such a meal once a day. No wonder these people looked so listless.
When the girl who fed them came to them, Lin Siya finally saw the girl's face clearly.
You won’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked. Although the girl in front of her has a dirty face, she still recognized who she is at a glance.
Wasn't this the girl named Xiaorou from the dating show that the three of them had watched at the state-owned restaurant that day? How did she end up here? Was she also abducted by human traffickers?
Lin Siya had thousands of questions in her mind, so she asked them directly.
"Your name is Xiaorou?"
The person opposite him shook his hand and spilled half of the soup.
"You, you know me?" His voice was full of vigilance.
"I know you, but you don't know me." Lin Siya had nothing to hide. Although eavesdropping on other people's conversations was impolite, it was because they happened to be sitting at the tables in front and behind her that day, so she told them everything about the blind date that day and asked some questions at the end.
"Did you and your blind date work out? That truck driver seems pretty good."
Who knew that as soon as Xiaorou asked this question, tears started falling.
This time it was Lin Siya's turn to be confused.
"Hey, don't cry, mom, why are you crying?"
"Wuwuwu, I, wuwuwu~"
Lin Siya couldn't help but roll her eyes. Oh my god, this is Lin Daiyu, tears come as soon as they come. She saw that she couldn't stop crying no matter how hard she tried to persuade her, so she simply ignored it and let her cry. She would stop when she cried enough.
This trick really worked. After about ten minutes, Xiaorou's tears finally stopped.
"No, sorry, I was just too scared and couldn't control my emotions."
"It's okay, I'm scared too."
When Lin Siya said this, there was a sense of calmness in her voice, but the two girls looked at her with a sense of disbelief.
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Lin Siya just wants to find out what she knows.
"Can you tell me how you got here?"
“I don’t know why I was brought here.
That day, my good friend Xiaofen, oh, the girl I went on a blind date with, told me that she had many children and couldn't find a job, so she might have to go to the countryside. She asked me to accompany her to the Youth League Office, but halfway there, I fainted and ended up here without knowing anything.
After hearing what Xiaorou said, Lin Siya completely understood that this group of people were the human traffickers, but she reacted quickly.
"Hey, that's not right. You said you were going to accompany a good friend to the Youth League Office, but your family called the police and said you were going to school to get your diploma."
Lin Siya didn't know why the two didn't match, but there must be some other reason.
Thinking of the information she had overheard before, Lin Siya couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"Could it be that you yourself want to visit the Youth League Office and then go to the countryside?"
Xiaorou didn't expect that her little thoughts would be exposed, and she was suddenly a little flustered.
