Chapter 155: Human Traffickers
Xiao Tian was embarra.s.sed and quickly pulled Fang Mo’er back. “Sister, please forget it, I won’t say anymore. You don’t have to spend any money.”
Fang Mo’er said, “You’ve been with me for so long, it’s only right for me to buy you an accessory.”
Actually, Xiaotian was quite obedient. She was on-call for Fang Mo’er, 24 hours a day.
She was usually very attentive and would not allow Fang Mo’er to get thirsty.
Fang Mo’er picked out a small and exquisite headdress for Xiao Tian.
!!
Just as she had finished paying, there was a commotion outside.
A broadcast from the mall announced, “A one-year-old child has gone missing from their stroller. All entrances and exits will be closed. Customers, please wait where you are. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.”
The broadcast was repeated over and over again, causing an uproar among the customers.
A child had gone missing, and he was only a year old.
Fang Mo’er and Xiao Tian looked at each other. When they walked out of the jewelry store, they saw that the entrance to the mall had indeed been closed.
Security guards were searching everywhere.
“Could it be that he encountered a human trafficker?”
“The child is so young. That kidnapper is too wicked!”
“I hope he hasn’t left the mall yet. We must find him.”
There were many surveillance cameras in the mall. Who would have the guts to steal a child here?
Not far away, there was a distraught woman, surrounded by a few people, who were searching together.
Fang Mo’er received a call from Mu Ye, asking if she had arrived yet? If she had not arrived yet, she would have come a little later. There was an emergency in the mall.
Fang Mo’er asked, “How is it going?”
Mu Ye learned that she was already at the mall, but he had no time to care about her, so all he said was, “From the surveillance footage, the only thing that could be seen was a woman wearing a mask and a hat who was carrying the child away. After the child’s mother found out, she quickly went to the security guard. That woman hasn’t been found in the mall yet.”
Fang Mo’er nodded. “You go ahead and do what you need to do.”
The kidnapper was a woman with a child. If they wanted to find her, it should be easy.
However, time pa.s.sed by slowly.
The security guards found nothing.
“Could it be that she has already left?”
“Everyone is looking for the child but they haven’t found her yet. She must have left before the mall had been sealed.”
The child’s mother was crying her eyes out.
Fang Mo’er frowned.
“Miss Veiled!” Mu Ye’s expression was solemn.
Although the mall was closed, the situation at the scene had already been photographed and posted about.
The netizens were questioning the mall’s actions.
Fang Mo’er said, “Mr. Mu, could you show me the surveillance footage?”
Mu Ye felt that even if the Veiled Queen looked at the surveillance footage, it would be useless.
He had looked at the surveillance footage a few times himself, but he still had not been able to find the person.
“Bring her to the surveillance room,” Mu Ye said to his a.s.sistant.
Then, he left in a hurry.
When she reached the surveillance room, Fang Mo’er saw a tall woman wearing a tight headband. When the mother had not been paying attention, the woman had carried the sleeping baby away and left quickly.
She disappeared around the corner.
The surveillance cameras in the mall were not placed everywhere and there were also several blind spots.
There was a staircase in the corner. The woman could be hiding on any floor.
Fang Mo’er thought of the customers that she had seen when she had swept past the crowd. Her heart had already locked onto one person.
“I know who the kidnapper is!”
The security guards in the surveillance room looked at each other and looked at Fang Mo’er in surprise.
“Follow me!”
Fang Mo’er said to them and hurriedly walked out.
Amongst the crowd, there was a man sitting in a corner. He was looking down at his phone, looking bored.
Suddenly, a woman wearing a veil walked over and said to the security guards behind her, “This is the person who stole the child!”
The crowd was in an uproar.
The security guards were also in disbelief. Could it be that they had made a mistake?
No one at the scene believed what Fang Mo’er had said.
Even the tall man widened his eyes and pointed at himself. “Are you talking about me? I didn’t do anything!”
Xiao Tian sheepishly pulled on Fang Mo’er’s arm. “Sister, did you make a mistake? This is a man.”
There was a small package beside the man.
Without a word, Fang Mo’er s.n.a.t.c.hed the package and poured out the contents.
There was a hat, a mask, and the clothes that the woman in the surveillance camera had been wearing.
When the security guard saw this, he quickly stepped forward and caught hold of the man. “Where is the child?”
Seeing that he had been exposed, the man glared at Fang Mo’er. “You shouldn’t meddle in other people’s business.”
It was no wonder that the surveillance camera had not been able to find the culprit. It turned out that he had changed into another outfit.
The man refused to tell them where the child was hidden.
However, after checking the surveillance cameras, they soon found out that the child had been placed in a storage room.
A lady with a tear-stained face rushed over. “My child!”
When the child was found, the crowd heaved a sigh of relief. They quickly took photos of the Veiled Queen and the woman together.
The news that the Veiled Queen had uncovered a kidnapper soon spread like wildfire on the Internet.
