"Sure enough, I still can't bear my uncle. ”

"You two dead girls, I would have changed to Azhu, who didn't talk much, if I knew it. ”

"Okay, we don't dare. ”

The two girls surrendered, and the three of them laughed and led Cheng Fei back to the room for a nap......

And Chen Huang, who was far away in Yingdu, took a murder case that Ruo Ao Zike threw to him, and he also took a share of the case of the circle people, which was the strong man of those private circle homeless people sent back to Beijing by Cheng Jia and Mi Huang.

Ruo Ao Zike, who was defeated, didn't take it seriously, so he called Chen Huang, and Cheng Jia's brother-in-law took over.

In the gloomy prison, several cell heads followed behind him and complimented him with a smile, "Lord Tingli has been so busy lately!"

"Busy?"

Chen Huang took the case file in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and disagreed.

If Ao Zike often doesn't come to the yamen these days, and he doesn't know what he's busy with, he is a little mysterious, and all these miscellaneous things of the prison department are thrown to him, compared to him, he is naturally busy.

Since the whole Yingdu handled Zhou Mu's big case last year, there has been no major case, just some petty theft cases, and he can't be busy if he wants to, but he can't go out with Qingqing for Ruo Ao Zike to stick to his position.

"Let's go, bring the prisoners out!"

"Look at who dares to confine down the homeless without permission. ”

Chen Huang sat behind the long case of the interrogation, the case file was thrown on the table at will, the person sat behind the case, and ordered someone to escort the person out, now he is different from him last year, with the identity of Cheng's son-in-law, he still gives him some face when he meets people, even Ruo Ao Zike usually laughs and laughs with him.

"Yes, sir. ”

Several cell bosses and jailers escorted out a group of strong men in batches, Chen Huang frowned and looked at these strong men who were kneeling on the ground and wailing, all of them had blue noses and swollen faces, and secretly frowned, "So many? Twenty or thirty?"

"How many homeless people did they trap?" Chen Huang asked.

"This time, they caught more than a dozen hairy children, and then they were discovered by adults on the spot. Li Jie, a staff member beside him, replied.

Chen Huang nodded, more than a dozen people, not a big case.

If there are more people behind this group of people, with a population of tens of thousands, it will be a big case of selling the population.

I don't know why Cheng Jia mobilized the crowd to send these ruffians to Beijing.

"Have they explained who is the head of the house behind them?"

These are thugs with clear eyes, Chen Huang thought for a while and asked.

"They said that the one who took care of them was a man named Master Xian. Li Ji replied, "But we have searched all the merchants in Yingdu and nearby counties, and there is not a single rich merchant surnamed Xian. ”

"The surname Xian is not much in my Chu country. ”

Chen Huang nodded.

"Is there anything else you ask?"

"And then there are not too many important things, these people are just thugs, who collect money to arrest people, and if they are caught, they are sent to the designated place, and someone takes over. Li Qi flipped through the transcript of his confession.

"Where do they send people on weekdays?" Chen Huang nodded and recorded these as well.

"There is an unabandoned Zhuangzi in the suburbs, it is an ownerless Zhuangzi, and they said that when they get there, just send people in. ”

"I guess they've sent a few people back. ”

Li Ji thought about it and said, "This should be an organized long-term human tooth, or a big tooth shop backed by it." ”

When Chen Huang heard this, he nodded, after all, it was not some small fish and shrimp, which could add some political achievements to his position as court manager, "Then how many people did they send back and forth, how many people are there in total." ”

"They didn't say anything, they insisted that they only arrested these dozen children, and they also signed a contract with them, and it was a few of them who ran away to arrest them. ”

Li Ji took out a stack of contracts they had handed in and shook his head and said, "These are the contracts of those children, according to Lord Cheng sent people back to say that those children insisted that they were displaced people after the flood, and when they encountered these people who were forcibly detained and abducted and sold into slaves, they wanted to escape, but these thugs chased them tightly and wanted to arrest them back." ”

"Since they don't want to say, did Zhuangzi send someone to investigate?"

"I'm about to send someone to investigate. ”

"Let's go and see. ”

Chen Huang closed the file, and then confessed to several cell bosses, "Give this court a good treat to these guys until they are willing to confess more." And he took them out of prison.

"Yes, sir, don't worry!"

"They're all right. ”

Several cell leaders turned around and looked at the strong man kneeling on the ground with fierce expressions, and shouted loudly, "Brothers, please try all the great punishments in our prison, and wash them all over." ”

More than a dozen jailers walked to the wall and picked and picked on one torture instrument after another, and the world was really soft and afraid of hard, and evil was afraid of ruthless.

All the strong men kneeling on the ground looked at the various torture instruments hanging on the wall, and each spike was cold and awe-inspiring, revealing a trace of fear, "Prison masters, can we still recruit now?"

"No, if you recruit first, you won't have this trip. ”

"Now that the adults are gone, if you come back, you don't have any flesh and skin on you, and we won't do our errand. The cell bosses rubbed their fists together and looked at the barbed whip and the nail board, and said easily.

All the strong men suddenly felt a cold sweat behind their backs.

They have been doing this abduction for so many years, and it is the first time they have been arrested in the territory of Yingdu, it seems that this time they have been given up, and a few strong men think of this, knowing everything and saying everything.

But they don't really know much.

In addition to the place where the people were handed over, there were also more than 20 people who were collected after the flood, and the largest number of homeless people in an entire village were arrested at one time, almost a thousand people, and they couldn't say anything else.

After Li Jie, who made the record, finished writing, he ordered the cell boss to let them mark and press their fingerprints, "It seems that this case is not small, they have arrested thousands of people, and they can give Chen Tingli an explanation." ”

The cell bosses nodded frequently, "We don't think they are good things." ”

……

In the evening, they saw the abandoned village outside the city, the whole Zhuangzi was very large, there was nothing, and I don't know how long it had been abandoned.

It can be seen that there are already people running ahead of them, and they are walking in a hurry.

Chen Huang frowned when he saw this, looked at the staff around him and said, "It seems that the rumor has leaked." ”

"What about the court?"

The staff asked.

"First ask someone to guard this place to see if anyone comes back, and search the surroundings to see if there is any trace or evidence left. If they catch someone, there has to be a place to continue to transfer people. Chen Huang thought.

"Yes, sir. ”

On the way back to the Criminal Prison Division, Chen Huang was wondering where they could transfer people? Or did the next family buy these forcibly encircled homeless people? Or the three caves of the cunning rabbit?

When he returned to the imperial gate, Li Ji told him a new interrogation result.

"My lord, after the cell boss tortured, these thugs have all recruited, and they have arrested more than 1,000 people after this trip. ”

"So many?" Chen Huang was shocked when he heard this.

"Yes, my lord, it seems that there must be someone behind these people. ”

Since he took office, Yingdu has been calm for more than half a year, and he hasn't even caught a few thieves every month, and now he has caught a group of people at once, not to mention, I didn't expect that it was faintly a big tooth shop, not to mention a big tooth shop, maybe they are still a very organized tooth shop.

Human trafficking was known as "skimming trafficking" in the major princely states, and although the laws and regulations of each country were not perfect, it was unanimously stipulated as a major crime, along with major crimes such as group robbery, theft and wounding, and theft of graves, and was punishable by imprisonment (beheading and splitting up the body).

The fundamental reason for this is that during the Spring and Autumn Period, the population of various countries was sparse, most of the population was a standing population for war, and some large tooth shops, or small sales gangs, transferred the population of one country to other countries through the tooth shop, and forcibly enslaved the good people to obtain huge profits.

Although the major princes, lords, families, and nobles all bought people privately, it was expressly forbidden to sell their own human beings to other countries, especially in the tens of thousands, which was a major crime among the major crimes.

Chen Huang pondered slightly for a long time, "You sent someone to call Master Situ of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and asked him to assist us in handling the case." ”

"Yes!"

"Wait, send someone to send the information we found out to the eastern suburbs to the right disciples. ”

"Yes!"

Chen Huang suddenly felt a little uneasy, looking at the dark sky outside the window in the evening, it was dark and dreary, only to find that it was dark, and said to the staff next to him who was sorting out the case, "It's dark?"

"Yes, Lord Tingli, I was about to talk about the palm lamp. Li Ji picked up the flint and lit the oil lamp.

"Well, since it's so late, you can find me some files of disappearances or abduction cases reported in the past two years, just go back first, and I'll take a look at this case. ”

Li Qi took out a stack of disappearance and abduction cases that had been reported in recent years from the file room next to him, "That adult, it's all here, I'll go first." ”

"Hmm. ”

The case handed over to him by Cheng Jia is the largest case he has ever taken on since taking office.

Although only twenty or thirty people have been arrested so far, it is very likely that there will be a whole extraordinarily large gang of people in the future, or a special big tooth shop in which country is backed by it.

Chen Huang looked at the files stacked on the table, leaned back on the chair, and suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulders for no reason, and let out a long sigh, suddenly understanding why he always felt that Cheng Jia was so tired before.

These big cases, big things are pressed down.

When the younger brother can go home first, but they have to continue to carry on.

That's the responsibility!

"Forget it, for Qingqing, if you start a family, no matter how tired you are!"

Buried in the file, the oil lamp on the desk ran out of oil several times, Chen Huang ate and added lamp oil to continue to investigate the case, fortunately, there was no sunny at home recently waiting for him to come home for dinner, he could concentrate on doing things.

In the guard office of the Five Cities Terracotta Division located in the south of the city, a herald walked in and reported, "Lord Duwei, Chen Tingli from the Criminal Prison Division said that he wants to recruit some officers and soldiers from your side to assist them in investigating a case of exile trapping. ”

"Exile captivity?"

Situ Nan, who was sparring with others on the martial arts training ground, put away the halberd in his hand, and chuckled lightly, "This Chen Huang's new official has taken office, and he has three fires, and he wants to solve the big case like Cheng Jia." ”

"The security inside and outside this Yingdu is the responsibility of our Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and his hand is too long. The young adjutant also put his sword back into its sheath with disdain, "I really think that I have become a phoenix when I fly up the branches from the cold door." ”

"Since he wants to check, let him check!"

Situ Nan's eyes narrowed slightly, the essence flashed, smiled, and put the halberd on the weapon rack with a "sonorous", "It is the real ability to find out." ”
