Chapter 189: The Man Behind the Scenes
On Victory Day, Lin Li, Qiya and Bolan made an appointment to spend it together.
On this day, which is also a national rest day, all the air traffic in the city center is stopped, only the public hovercar does not stop driving by, carrying many people, and two police cars are parked on each street in case of emergency.
There are also armed robot pestles at the entrance of each store, which look ordinary, but if there is any turmoil or abnormality in the crowd, they are the real main force and can act at any time.
The streets were crowded with people rubbing shoulders with flying smiles on their faces, and from time to time there were singing and celebrations coming from everywhere, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.
There are a variety of events on the spacious streets, most of which are held in partnership with nearby businesses, and even a ring is set up on the spot, and any passerby can go up and challenge the defenders, and there are prizes for winning and losing, and many people gather around the ring, applauding and cheering one after another.
Lin Li, Qi Ya and Bolan walked on the street, and when they saw those who were interested, they also went over to participate, and there were a lot of onlookers, which was very lively.
In addition to singing and dancing knowledge competitions or something, there are many activities that Lin Li can only look up to, such as assembling a complete robot within five minutes, creating a scientific and technological work immediately, and even disarming the self-destruction device before the spaceship self-destructs in the simulated scene, etc., these high-tech, Lin Li feels very seriously that he can only watch from a distance and not play with it.
All morning, they were very efficient, and they only walked three streets, and there were hundreds of streets, even if they looked at the flowers and flowers, it was estimated that they would not be able to walk in a day.
Feeling a little hungry, they clicked on the robot with a pestle next to the street, and the bench rose from the ground.
Seeing a drink shop opposite, Lin Li ran over to buy a drink, and a girl with red cheeks who was supported by two men passed by her, they looked intimate and looked like a couple.
Lin Li smelled a somewhat familiar smell, and she slowly stopped. There was nothing wrong with looking at the three men suspiciously.
She was about to take a step forward, when she suddenly paused, her face changed greatly, this smell was clearly the smell of the potion that was fed weakness by the star thief, although it had been a long time, but she remembered it very clearly, so that girl......
Lin Li looked at it again, and the two boys were holding the girl's arms on one side. The girl's steps are very empty, basically being dragged by the two of them, this is clearly a coerced posture, and just now I noticed that the girl's eyes were extremely confused, as if she couldn't tell the situation at all.
Lin Li directly dialed the emergency alarm, rushed out quickly, gestured at Qi Ya and Bolan, and pointed to the three figures who were leaving quickly in front of him.
As soon as they passed through the crowd, Lin Li rushed up. "Stop! ”
Perhaps it was because of the lack of thieves that the two did not stop, but walked faster, heading into the remote alley next to them.
But the next moment. The anxious step suddenly slipped, and the body fell to the ground uncontrollably.
Lin Li rushed forward, freezing their hands and feet, sticking to the ice on the ground. Temporarily lost the ability to move.
She picked up the girl who had fallen to the ground, and the smell in her nose was even more obvious, and she looked at them vigilantly.
Bolan arrived at this time. Holding the girl, I felt that she was not in the right state, and hurriedly took out the treatment device from the space button to treat her, but it didn't work.
The armed robot gathered around several people, the red light on the electronic eyes kept flashing, and the guns in their hands were pointed at the four people who were awake, waiting for the police to come.
Kia then ran over, followed by two policemen.
"Mr. Policeman, I noticed that the girl appears to have been fed illegal drugs."
The two men lying on the ground were struggling and yelled, "What the hell are you doing! It's the love between our boyfriend and girlfriend, you know what! How dare you disturb our good deeds! ”
"Little girl, you attacked others for no reason, I can file an appeal! Mr. Policeman, as witnesses, you must enforce the law impartially. I must sue, the underage girls' education center is waiting for you! ”
He smiled grimly, not at all feeling that he would be in any danger.
One of the elderly policemen looked at Lin Li and Qi Ya, showed a wry smile, and said, "Two young ladies, meet again!" ”
Lin Li realized that this was the policeman who handled their affairs yesterday, she smiled dryly and said hello to the older policeman.
The older policeman walked over and pulled out a white pocket robot, and a very small needle poked out of the robot's hand and stabbed it into the girl's neck, and then two tentacles on the top of the robot's head flashed red.
Seeing the test report that came over, the older policeman's face suddenly turned bad, if something happened on Victory Day, it would be to make trouble for them, especially in this area under their care, not to mention demotion, it is estimated that there will be no chance of promotion in the future.
"W05 has been injected for three minutes, and the victim is currently in a coma."
When the older policeman read it, the faces of the two changed slightly, but they still looked fearless, and even smiled: "Mr. Policeman, I see that you should send the robot for maintenance, I advise you, don't do useless work, it's not much trouble to let us go now!" ”
"Haha! Let's all help each other, and there won't be so much trouble in the future! In case there is any accident in the future......"
The young policeman looked angry, Lin Li withdrew the frozen ice on the ground, and the armed robot successfully handcuffed the two of them, and after searching for a bottle of potion from their arms, he said angrily: "Hmph! What else do you have to say! Illegal use of illegal drugs, physical witnesses, and delusional threats to the police, sooner or later, you imperial moths will all be imprisoned and exiled to the side of the planet!! ”
The two of them suddenly changed color, and their hands struggled, but the frozen and solid ice did not allow them to break away at all, and even they felt the temperature of their palms and soles of their feet gradually passing, and they were about to lose consciousness.
After a moment, they laughed scoundrelly: "Since this is the case, we can't talk about it, so you are free!" When our brothers come out, we'll meet again! ”
The obvious intimidation made the two policemen expressionless, and ordered the armed robot to escort the two to the police car, and then send the victim girl to the police car.
"Three young ladies! Thank you! Both policemen thanked him, feeling very dissatisfied with the rampant offender.
Lin Li glanced at the girl who was taken away by the armed robot, and before she could ask, the older policeman said, "Three young ladies don't worry. There is an antidote in the police car, and this kind of drug is also common. ”
The three of them nodded, and Qi Ya said, "The Admiral's Mansion will always pay attention!" ”
At the end of the point, the elderly policeman was awe-struck in his heart and saluted: "Serve the citizens!" It's our responsibility! This kind of rampant criminal behavior will definitely be investigated by the police department to the end, and no criminal will be spared! ”
The young policeman next to him had sparkling eyes, looking at the older policeman with a look of trust and adoration, and also saluted.
"Rest assured, the perpetrators will be punished as they deserve!"
Be sure that things will be resolved satisfactorily. Lin Li and the three of them sat back again, but they were in a bad mood.
Bolan's eyes were confused, and he wondered, "Why are they stunning girls?" ”
Lin Li has experience in his previous life, and he probably knows that this is probably a large-scale abduction gang, so the errand runners are so uncle, and they are not afraid to see the police, but with the general's mansion exerting pressure from above, the police station will definitely not dare to take it lightly, but the crime of abducting and trafficking women is serious enough. There are still people who dare to be so rampant.
She said in a heavy tone: "This must have been done by the trafficking gang, after all, women are scarce, if we don't stop it." It may be sold. ”
"Huh? Sold off? Sell to whom? What are you doing? Bolan wondered, she had never been exposed to anything in this area, and she didn't know anything at all.
The same goes for Kia, who is the daughter of an admiral. Anyone who doesn't have a long eye will hit her head with an idea, and besides, she is usually followed by bodyguards when she goes out, and she has never encountered any danger. Or the danger is stifled in advance.
Facing the puzzled eyes of the two people, Lin Li felt slightly embarrassed, abducting and selling women would definitely not be sent to any good place, and the gender ratio here is still so large, she can almost come up with it if she thinks about it with her toes, but she has never heard of it or seen it after all.
Similarly, she also has doubts, obviously the punishment for the crime of abducting and trafficking women is extremely serious, and women are protected, and ordinary underworld forces do not dare to commit crimes against the wind, how can they dare to be so unscrupulous in the capital star, so ...... There must be someone behind it.
Lin Li's face changed slightly, and he had a bad guess in his heart, so he only said: "I don't know very well, let's investigate it when we go back, and we can take a look at this case." ”
Qi Ya and Bolan nodded, and didn't mention the matter anymore, and when they went back, Lin Li looked up the words abduction and trafficking of women on the Internet, and there was very little news and information coming out, but they could probably see something, there were very few abduction gangs that were really uprooted, and they were a little scary.
Lin Li thought about it for a while, and typed in "women are missing", and thousands of pages of information appeared.
She looked at it, her face turned a little pale, there were many cases of disappearance, and basically all of them were finally judged to be dead or missing. And there are also many posts that reveal some extremely shady things, although it is speculation, but Lin Li feels a little true.
After checking the relevant information, Lin Li's heart beat violently, and she felt as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping her heart.
There is definitely a conspiracy in this, the disappearance of women is not an isolated case, but an example of it happening everywhere, and most of the missing people's families are ordinary or even poor, and the disappearance cases are almost always closed in the end, and it seems that they have been suppressed.
What will be the final outcome of these missing women? Lin Li didn't know, but she faintly felt in her heart that it might be more cruel than she imagined.
During the holiday that was originally scheduled to be relaxed, it was a bad thing to encounter two cases in a row, Lin Li's mood was more or less affected, he didn't sleep all night, and finally got up and cultivated after thinking about it for a long time, no matter what conspiracy there was, it was real if he had the strength.
When he saw Bolan and Qiya the next day, Lin Li felt that his spirit was really good in comparison.
The two of them looked haggard and seemed to be a little shocked, and Lin Li knew that they might have found something.
Lan Ling thoughtfully brought warm milk to warm his stomach, then turned around to look at the small snacks that were being baked, and waited for the three of them to be baked for a while.
Bolan's eyes were a little blank, and he muttered, "How can there be so many missing girls!" ”
Qi Ya sent the information she found to Lin Li, her eyes were stained with sadness, and she said, "There are tens of thousands of missing women in the empire every year, why don't you find them back!" ”
After reading it, Lin Li was also surprised, she couldn't find such intuitive data on the Internet, and now when she looks at it, it's really scary.
The territory of the Wilson Empire is considered medium in the interstellar world. There are countless planets in the star field, and there are tens of thousands of living planets, and there are tens of thousands of missing women on the bright side, so I'm afraid it's not more!
Lin Li secretly thought, tens of thousands of planets, I'm afraid there is more than one missing every year, and the total number is really enough.
It's just that this data seems to be too huge, with an average of tens of thousands every year, and it is also an extremely terrifying number over time. And if there are more, it will be as many as the number of baby girls born each year. In the future, the ratio of men and women will only increase.
The three of them were silent, this was a realm they had never touched before, and it could be a terrifying realm after it was revealed.
After a long time, Qi Ya opened her mouth and said, "I asked my father, and he said that he could only try as hard as he could!" ”
Lin Li's heart jumped, and the generals who were known as the spiritual leaders of the military gods all said so, then. How big is the force behind this, she ...... I can't imagine it.
Bolan clenched his fists and said with a very serious round face: "I will work hard, I want to be a policeman." Arrest all the bad guys and get them all out! ”
Lin Li sighed: "Maybe the police are not so useful!" ”
There are people up there, and even if they want to pursue it, there is no way to do it, unless someone with great power pushes the matter. Otherwise, I'm afraid that it will not be done in the end.
Bolan's eyes widened, and a flash of distress flashed across his face: "Then what to do!" And we can't put surveillance on everyone, and rush to the rescue if there is danger. Can't we just let those bad people do evil? ”
Qi Ya pursed her lips, a bright light suddenly burst out of her eyes, and she said slowly: "As long as we are strong!" ”
Lin Li looked at Qi Ya and felt that she was a little different, and this change was also something she was happy to see.
She nodded, "Yes, as long as we are strong!" Why only child trafficking underage women, and not hearing of male trafficking, has already reflected the social status of women, because we don't have real strong people, so we need the law and the order that most people will abide by to protect. If there are strong people among women, they can really protect the weak in their own group by having the right to speak in the power, rather than relying on laws that are often useless to protect the weak. ”
The three of them looked at each other, their hearts trembled, and finally their eyes became brighter and brighter, as if carrying bright starlight, with a sense of hope and courage.
Bolan said happily: "You are right, if we are very powerful and can also enter the cabinet as generals, this situation will definitely be reduced!" ”
Lin Li herself was also touched in her heart, she felt that she had really forgotten what kind of society this was.
The reality that she faintly touched made her clearly know that she was no longer able to be alone.
Sooner or later, the hidden darkness may come to light, and it is unknown what the situation will be.
Her eyes should not only be on herself, but also on the whole society, which is deformed.
Lin Li thought that in her previous life, her motherland spent more than a hundred years to break feudalism and achieve incomplete equality between men and women.
It took only half a century for another country of the same era to return to a situation in which polygamous women were indistinguishable from slaves. Now think about how horrible it is that it has only been half a century since women were brainwashed into submission to this state of enslavement, both mentally and physically.
If it continues, Lin Li doesn't dare to guarantee whether this kind of situation will occur in this interstellar world that far surpasses his previous life in all aspects, which makes people feel terrifying.
The three of them looked firm, Lin Li stretched out his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Let's work together!" ”
Bolan and Qiya glanced at each other and said, "Work together!" ”
Whether it's pessimism or not, Lin Li now has a more difficult goal, but he is full of energy.
When the time agreed with Master Hornby came, Lin Li entered the Jinsheng Garden very smoothly.
"Old? You're there too! Lin Li was surprised when he saw Jia Lao standing at the door with a smile on his face.
Then she looked surprised and said, "Could it be that you have been with Grandpa Hornby all the time?" ”
Jia Lao waved his hand, beckoned her in, and said with a smile: "Yes, I'm going to surprise Xiao Lin Li!" ”
Lin Li thought of An Ruila and Gu Hefeng, and said with a smile: "Did you tell An Ruila?" She's also in the capital star! ”
Jia Lao winked at her and said, "Let's talk about it, don't tell Xiao An'an, in case she tells the stinky boy." I'm not quiet, old man! ”
Lin Li asked, "Then when are you going to go back to Manson Lixing!" Has it been in the capital star since then? ”
Jia Lao waved his hand and said very casually: "Old man, isn't it annoying for me at home, well, I'm going to play around for decades, and I'll be ready to leave in a few days." ”
The corners of Lin Li's mouth twitched, annoying? I think you're annoyed by yourself, and you slipped away when you were bored!
Jia Lao was suddenly a little anxious, pulled Lin Li and ran upstairs, and said, "By the way, I picked up a few antique posts a few days ago. Look at how! Just teach me a few more words! ”
Lin Li had no choice but to follow, and when he saw the antique, the corners of his forehead twitched slightly, and he considered what to say so as not to hit his old heart.
"How much did you buy this antique?"
Jia Lao's face was full of smiles, and he showed off: "I bought it on a relic planet, and the man said that he found it around the ruins and asked me for this number, and I cut it for him, how about it?" Cheap it! ”
Looking at one of the fingers stretched out by Jia Laoxian. Then he stretched out five more fingers, and Lin Li asked with a trembling heart: "Five hundred thousand?" ”
Jia Lao looked at him, "How can it be this money!" Holding the antique, it was actually a piece of paper. Cautiously, he looked at Lin Li with a little disgust, and sighed: "Forget it, you are young." I guess I don't have the eyesight that I have been immersed in the antique world for hundreds of years, but this is a real antique, and it can be torn apart if you are not careful. Let's take a look at it again! ”
Hundreds of years? You are only over two hundred years old, Lin Li was speechless, and after a closer look, she also knew that this was not an antique at all, maybe it was not what she understood? But she didn't give up and asked, "What about selling things...... Antique people, what did you say about it, when was this thing? ”
Jia Lao sighed again: "It seems that I have to give you some popular science, forget it, I just have time today." ”
Then Lin Li, who was popularized by science, stared at the mosquito coil eyes, no matter how you look at it, this is not the antique you said!
According to Jia Lao, this is an antique transported by a warship sent by the interstellar to rescue when the earth was still intact before the invasion of darkness.
And there are really a lot of such relics of the Wilson Empire, which have been excavated one after another.
"Come, look, I know this word, it's beauty! You see this paper, it is completely different from the current one, it is estimated that it will crack when it is fritted, and it will be yellow, and it will be a long time at first glance. ”
If it was really an antique left by the earthlings after entering the interstellar world, Lin Li was not sure, after all, the materials used at that time were estimated to be relatively high-tech and could be stored for a long time, but before the end of the world, she was 100% sure that this was fake.
Lin Li touched the paper, tore it with both hands, didn't use much effort, and sure enough, the paper didn't crack, so he was even more sure.
Jia Lao suddenly glared at his beard angrily, and put the antique treasure away.
Lin Li pointed to the paper and said, "Look at it, how can this quality paper be an antique from 10,000 years ago!" ”
Jia Lao patted Lin Li's shoulder and said, "You are young and your hands are small, don't be sad!" ”
Lin Li couldn't cry or laugh a little, her hand strength was not small at all, okay!
"You also know that the technology of the ancient earth was extremely backward even in the interstellar space 10,000 years ago, and the paper at that time was very fragile, and it is not certain whether it can survive until now, and even if it survives, it is estimated that it will be broken at the touch, and it is impossible to tear it or tear it apart. Moreover, it is said that there should be color on it. ”
Art appreciation, she doesn't know anymore, Lin Li complained silently.
Jia Lao was a little puzzled, and before he could speak, a messy figure came over and laughed: "Haha, you old guy has been deceived again!" ”
He walked over and looked at the piece of paper, smiled even more happily, and said, "If you don't listen to the persuasion, how much money has been cheated!" ”
Jia Lao snatched it from his hand, and said silently, Lin Li hurriedly said: "Whether this is an antique or not, the words on this are correct!" I guess the guy who sells fake antiques must have real antiques in his house! Otherwise, it can't be so similar. ”
Jia Lao was instantly excited, and said: "Good boy, you dare to lie to me!" I'm going to have to get his old book out when I go back! (To be continued......)
