Qi Mengmeng: ...Luckily, the water in the kettle was filled before getting on the bus.
After pouring the water, the old lady wiped the water stains on Pan Di's face with her hands and patted her face: "Pan Di, wake up."
Pan Di opened her eyes dazedly, and when she saw so many people staring at her, she immediately shrank back. The aunt quickly hugged her and said, "Pan Di, I'm here, don't be afraid."
Pan Di felt better, and she asked quietly, "Aunt, what happened?"
The police officer looked around and saw that everyone was listening attentively. He changed his words and said, "We found a thief and we have something to ask you. If you are sober now, please come with me."
Pan Di nervously pulled the aunt's arm, with a look of fear on her face: "Aunt, I, I..."
Qi Mengmeng looked at Pan Di who was speechless and reminded her, "Auntie, why don't you go with Pan Di? If you don't have any money in your bag, put it here and I'll help you keep an eye on it."
She made it very clear that they should take the money and bills with them and she could help with the rest, so that they wouldn't find out something was missing when they came back, which would cause misunderstandings.
The old lady looked at Pan Di worriedly: "Pan Di, can you walk by yourself now?"
Pan Di actually didn't want to go, but the conductor was anxious to find out the situation, and the train was about to arrive.
At this time, another young flight attendant came over and said a few words in his ear, and the expression on his face changed immediately.
"Comrades, there has been an unexpected situation. I'm afraid I'd like to trouble you to get off the bus and go to the police station to help explain the situation." The first conductor said to the few people.
At this time, the broadcast sounded and the train was about to arrive at the station.
Gu Guizhi took out his officer ID and handed it to the police officer. The police officer took it, looked at it, and said, "This matter is a bit troublesome, and I still need the help of my comrades."
When the old lady saw Gu Guizhi holding out his officer ID, she immediately said, "I am a military dependent, and my son is serving in the Hebei Provincial Military Region."
Gu Guizhi was a little surprised, but there were too many people on the train, and the train had already started to slow down, so he nodded quickly: "Auntie, let's get off together. Maybe I know your son."
Qi Mengmeng had quickly pulled out the bag from under the bunk and stuffed the things back into the bag.
The old lady also took out her bag, held it against her chest, and supported Pan Di with her other hand.
Qi Mengmeng saw how hard it was for the old lady to help and wanted to help, but Pan Di dodged for a moment. The old lady smiled at Qi Mengmeng and said, "Pan Di can walk by herself, so I won't bother you."
Pan Di staggered out of the carriage. Seeing this, Qi Mengmeng said nothing and followed Gu Gui off the train.
Two train police officers escorted the two men to a bearded man, and told Gu Guizhi that the man was Captain Li from the police station. They asked him to go directly to Captain Li if he had any questions, and then hurriedly got on the train.
Captain Li nodded to Gu Guizhi and the others and said, "I'll have to trouble you to go to the police station and tell us the details."
It was a bit awkward just after leaving the train station. They rode three bicycles here, but there were two criminals, not to mention the four "witnesses."
Captain Li was not embarrassed at all. He looked at Gu Guizhi and the others and asked, "Comrades, can you ride a bicycle?"
Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng both said yes, which made Auntie and Pan Di feel a little embarrassed.
For rural people, it is good enough to have one bicycle in a village, and there are not many people who can ride one.
Captain Li discussed with Gu Guizhi: "Comrade, can we two ride our bicycles to take the old lady and this female comrade with us, and let the other female comrade ride her own bicycle?"
Gu Guizhi looked at Qi Mengmeng and said, "Mengmeng, are you okay riding by yourself?"
Riding a bicycle in the dark is definitely not very stable, but the current situation is that she can only walk if she doesn't ride a bicycle, so she chooses to ride a bicycle.
Captain Li saw that the two agreed and waved his hand to his men: "Leave the bicycles behind and take the men back."
The two men looked at each other and left with the two human traffickers.
Captain Li took Pan Di, Gu Guizhi took the aunt, and Qi Mengmeng rode her own bicycle, slowly riding towards the police station.
It was dark along the way and Qi Mengmeng was riding in fear. Fortunately, the police station was not far from the train station, otherwise she really didn't know how long she could have held on.
Although they only rode for ten minutes, Qi Mengmeng still broke out in a cold sweat. Gu Guizhi and Captain Li were better.
Captain Li brought several people into the house and asked about the situation first. He learned that Pan Di was almost abducted and asked about the details of the abduction.
Pan Di only remembered that after she went to the toilet, the other party said two words to her and then she lost consciousness.
Captain Li asked Qi Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi to repeat what they knew.
At this time, the other two policemen had brought the man back, and Captain Li immediately took him to interrogate him.
Qi Mengmeng and a few others sat on chairs and looked at each other. The lights in the room were too dim, and Qi Mengmeng couldn't help but doze off.
After an unknown amount of time, Captain Li came out of the interrogation room with shining eyes. He soon stopped because, except for Gu Guizhi, the other three had fallen asleep.
Captain Li slapped his head and said, "I forgot you were still here."
Gu Guizhi looked at Captain Li and said, "It's so late now. I'd like to trouble Captain Li to find a guesthouse for us."
Captain Li nodded: "Of course, of course."
He turned around and called a subordinate: "Shunzi, take them to find a guesthouse."
Gu Guizhi reminded him, "I'm afraid our letter of introduction doesn't allow us to live here."
Captain Li waved his hand: "You are here to cooperate with the investigation. We will explain to the guesthouse."
Only then did Gu Guizhi wake up Qi Mengmeng and ask Qi Mengmeng to call Auntie and Pan Di.
A few people followed Shunzi in a daze to a guesthouse a hundred meters away.
It was already 11 o'clock in the evening. Shunzi said a few words to the front desk, who handed over two keys and asked Gu Guizhi, "Do you have a marriage certificate?"
Gu Guizhi hesitated, he didn't know whether Qi Mengmeng had a marriage certificate.
After walking this way, Qi Mengmeng became much more sober. She rummaged through her bag again and again, took out the marriage certificate and handed it to the front desk.
The receptionist took a look, asked the two people's names, and then said nothing more.
After entering the room, Gu Guizhi asked Qi Mengmeng: "Do you still have your marriage certificate with you?"
"Yeah," Qi Mengmeng nodded casually, "It's not heavy anyway, just in case you need it."
It's just a piece of paper, it's so convenient to put it in space.
The room that the front desk arranged for Qi Mengmeng and her friends was a single room. In addition to two beds, there was also a small washroom with water pipes.
Qi Mengmeng went to get some water, but Gu Guizhi quickly stopped her and said, "There's definitely no hot water in the pipes here. I'll go to the front desk and borrow a kettle."
Qi Mengmeng washed her face first, and her sleepiness was half gone. After washing her feet and lying on the bed, she couldn't fall asleep.
