After hearing Qin Yuan’s words, Team Leader Jin slowly heaved a sigh of relief. He knew Qin Yuan’s reputation.
Therefore, he knew very well that as long as Qin Yuan came, this matter would definitely be resolved.
“No need. I’ll go out myself. Your people here are all familiar.”
“This way, it will be easier for these people to notice.”
Qin Yuan rejected Team Leader Jin’s request to send someone to follow them because the police officers in this small county must be very familiar with them.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have discovered that the police had sent people to monitor them so quickly.
Therefore, Qin Yuan planned to go by himself. “In that case, that’s good!”
Hearing Qin Yuan’s words, Team Leader Jin nodded.
Qin Yuan was right. There were only dozens of official police officers here, and most of them were locals.
Many people here were familiar with them.
After saying that, Qin Yuan walked out.
Although this small county was not very developed, there were many people setting up stalls.
Along the way, he also saw many women or old people bringing their children out to buy things and play.
Generally speaking, human traffickers would target children who walked alone or were brought along by women and the elderly.
Because their reactions were relatively slow, even if they were discovered, they would not be easily caught.
Qin Yuan turned on the radar and scanned the entire scene. During this time, he also found many dirty children begging with bowls.
Originally, Qin Yuan did not think too much about these little beggars.
A little girl walked up to a man who was eating at a roadside stall and begged him pitifully,”Uncle, give me a dollar to buy bread.” I haven’t eaten for a day.
I’m so hungry.”
The man couldn’t help but sympathize with the little girl when he saw how pitiful she was.
However, he did not give the little girl any money. Instead, he picked up a fried dough stick from the table and handed it to the little girl.” Here, this is for you.”
The little girl looked at the youtiao and swallowed her saliva. A hint of desire flashed in her eyes. She wanted to reach out to take it, but she looked around again. In the end, her gaze stopped on a man standing in the corner in the distance for a moment.
The man who was smoking glared at her. The little girl was so scared that she quickly walked away. She didn’t even take the youtiao and didn’t ask the man for money.
“Hey, haven’t you been starving for a day? I gave you fried dough sticks, but you didn’t want them.”
The man snorted and said,
“You didn’t learn to be good at such a young age. Your parents are really despicable!”
Parents?
How many parents in the world would let their children beg?
Qin Yuan smiled coldly. His radar locked onto the man who was squatting in a corner not far away and smoking.
He was sure that this child was controlled by this person and made her beg for money.
Of course, if there was only one, Qin Yuan could not be sure. However, when he walked to other streets, he found one or two more.
Within a radius of one mile, he found four to five of them, and they were all being watched.
It was unknown whether these children were afraid or something else. They only dared to ask for money and not food.
Perhaps in their eyes, food was worthless.
Therefore, Qin Yuan was certain that these people were a group of low-level criminal gangs who kidnapped or controlled children to make money for them.
Qin Yuan had seen these things in movies in his previous life. He did not expect that they would really exist in reality.
Seeing this scene, Qin Yuan knew that there were more than a few human traffickers in this county.
Instead, this human trafficking organization was hidden among these people.
No wonder Team Leader Jin and the others found it difficult to find a breakthrough. Since these human traffickers were hidden among the people, they knew every move of the police.
Qin Yuan did not leave. He just waited quietly in this area, waiting for this group of people to get off work.
It wasn’t until ten o’clock at night that the people who were shopping and setting up stalls in the county town went home one after another. Only then did the children gradually walk into a relatively dark street.
At this moment, there were already two men waiting there.
Soon, the seven children arrived at the alley one after another.
Qin Yuan was hiding on a roof in this alley, looking at the situation below.
The children looked at the two men with fear in their eyes. Two of them had lost an arm, and one of them was blind in one eye.
The others were also skinny and looked as if they had been starved for days.
The children took out the money they had begged for from their pockets and handed it to the two men.
Some were in the dozens, some in the hundreds, and even the smallest was in the fifties.
In total, it was more than a thousand yuan.
No wonder these people kidnapped the children and made them beg. In just one day, they managed to get more than 1,000 yuan. They just watched from the side, smoking and enjoying themselves. They used the smallest cost to earn the greatest profit.
As long as one was helpless, they would choose this path.
Although they wouldn’t be able to make a fortune, they could still live a very comfortable life.
These people in front of him were just small fries under this group.
Moreover, these children must be from other places and not local.
The children that they kidnapped in the local area must have been transferred to other places.
” You have the least income today, so you only have one steamed bun today.” One of the men took out a bag and threw a steamed bun the size of half a fist in front of a little girl.
The steamed bun rolled on the ground a few times before falling into a puddle of muddy water.
However, the little girl did not mind the dirt at all. She hurriedly ran over and picked up the steamed bun. She ate it in big mouthfuls. Even if there was mud and water on it, she did not hesitate to swallow it as if it was a delicacy.
As for the other six children, each of them was given two steamed buns to eat.
Looking at the way they wolfed down the food, the two men did not have any sympathy. Instead, they laughed mercilessly.
“Haha, a bunch of b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! You deserve to earn money for us in this life! Eat! Eat your fill and get more money for us tomorrow. Maybe when we’re happy, we’ll reward you with a bowl of noodles.”
A man grinned.
“You’re all very obedient today. No one dares to take anything from the guests,” said another man. Very good, maintain it. If I see you eating outside without permission, I’ll break your legs when you go back!”
This shout scared the children so much that they shrank back against the wall one by one. They lowered their heads and did not dare to breathe loudly. They could only eat quietly.
“d.a.m.n it!”
When Qin Yuan, who was on the roof, saw this scene, his eyes were filled with shocking killing intent!
Soon, an old van stopped at the exit of the alley.
The two men led the seven children over quickly. After they got the children into the car, they drove away.
Qin Yuan knew that they were going to bring the child back to their den.
She had already gotten off work today. She would bring the child out tomorrow morning.
One could imagine what kind of suffering these children would suffer in their hands.
These human traffickers were very good at disguising themselves and were very vigilant. They usually avoided the police and let these children beg.
These children had not eaten anything for the entire day.
It wasn’t easy for her to stay up until night, but she could eat two steamed buns.
Even an adult wouldn’t be able to take it, let alone a child.
Qin Yuan was not in a hurry to save these children. Instead, he quickly locked onto the car and chased after them.
The car was not driving very fast. On the way, Qin Yuan locked onto the car and kept rushing towards the shortcut.
After running for nearly 30 kilometers, the car finally stopped outside a relatively remote and desolate suburb.
This place was deserted and overgrown with weeds. It was a very old fertilizer factory.
Perhaps it was because the pollution in this area was more serious, so basically no one would come here.
There were no villages within a radius of twenty miles.
It could be said that this was a good place to hide.
From inside, the barking of wolfdogs could be heard from time to time.
Outside the door, there were cameras and two people guarding it.
Qin Yuan turned on the radar and scanned the entire factory. He found that there were more than 30 children in the entire factory. There were eight adults in total.
There were four wolfhounds..
