Chapter 155: Meeting a Child at Night
In the past, I felt that the calculation in Gu Chenghan's eyes made Zhen Chutian very uncomfortable, but now it seems to be excellent, Gu Chenghan is very consistent with him in every aspect, and the words spoken by the two sides are just a beginning and they know what they want to say later, so it is not familiar.
Since the two of them had come in a carriage, they were naturally much faster than the children, but even if they came together, they couldn't do anything.
"Did the man get caught later?"
This was said to Gu Chenghan, although the two did not talk when they came, but Zhen Chutian knew that Gu Chenghan would definitely let his men arrest the mediocre-looking man, and sure enough, after seeing Gu Chenghan nodding, Zhen Chutian was slightly relieved.
If the person is arrested, the people behind them will definitely receive the news, not to mention what method they used to pass it before, they will definitely speed up, and the people behind this will definitely not see the man, and they will definitely make a move.
"Look closely at the backyard, there are any large-scale entries or suspicious things, and we will go to the backyard at night, there must be a secret in it."
Zhen Chutian looked at Yu Linglong and the two and said, Gu Chenghan didn't have any words, and after dinner, several people divided their labor and cooperated, but Han Shuangyi was really a little boring.
"You sit still, don't go out, I don't know what will happen tonight, I will let someone watch you after I take it back and leave."
Looking at Han Shuangyi's impatient appearance, Zhen Chutian couldn't help but say with a cold face, it's not that he doesn't want to take Han Shuangyi with him, it's really an unknown night, Zhen Chutian was afraid that something would happen to Han Shuangyi, but he never thought that Zhen Chutian would regret it afterwards.
In the middle of the night, the guests in the post station were already asleep, but the two black shadows passed through the roof quickly, and fell in the backyard after a while.
Before sunset, Zhen Chutian saw a few little beggars who had returned to the post station from a distance, and saw that they had not appeared since they entered the house, and even strangers had never entered, so they looked for them in the middle of the night.
The dark inner room was completely invisible, if it weren't for the fact that Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan both had some kung fu, so even in places where ordinary people couldn't see anything, the two of them could still see more clearly.
Different from the luxury of the post room room, the room in the middle is just a few simple beds on the ground, the thin body of the little beggar is covered with a thin layer of thin quilt, seven or eight children are nested in a small room like this, Rao is to see the life of a few people in the day, at this time I can't help but feel more distressed.
The already small room could be seen at a glance, and there was nothing else in the whole room, nothing they imagined, so the two of them planned to push it out first, after all, the current scene was really shocking.
"Who!"
Just as the two of them were about to leave, they heard a childish voice, the two of them had a bad heart, and were thinking about how to get out, Gu Chenghan turned around and looked at the child who made a sound.
When Gu Chenghan saw the talking child clearly, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Zhen Chutian also calmed down at this time, and when he saw Gu Chenghan looking at the kid without speaking, he couldn't help but turn around very reluctantly, after all, it was really a bit embarrassing to be discovered by a child! What's more, they also boast that they are fast in catching, which is simply a shame in the face of fast catching.
"It's you!"
The child was very vigilant and looked at the two uninvited guests who broke into their room, but he felt that one of them was a little familiar, and it was not until he saw Zhen Chutian's face that the child relaxed slightly, but the words in his mouth were not relaxed at all.
"What do you two want to do in the middle of the night?"
I felt that my words were a little weak, and I wanted to add one more sentence, but I felt that something was not right when I said this.
"What do you think is in your room that we want to try?"
As if he had heard a big joke, Gu Chenghan raised his eyebrows and said, the unstoppable look in his eyes was really blind.
β... It doesn't seem like so, but why don't you come during the day? Do you have to be in the middle of the night? It's not that there is something trying to do anything! β
Although the two people in front of them were wearing night clothes, they did not delay in seeing Zhen Chutian's face clearly, after all, it is not common to see such a generous and somewhat good-looking person.
"Yes, there is an attempt, but it seems to me that our attempt is better for you."
The rare right to speak has always been Gu Chenghan communicating, Zhen Chutian was happy and clean on the side, and couldn't help but look at the other children on the side.
"What the hell do you want to do, you don't have to beat around the bush."
The child has never had so much patience, seeing that Zhen Chutian and the others have been taking care of themselves for a long time, maybe even if they do, they have not directly said the purpose, and the child is very dissatisfied in his heart.
"You're straightforward, in that case, then I'll just say it, aren't you all orphans, or in other words, most of you have been deceived, and then you are subject to others like this, but?"
Zhen Chutian raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and ended the appearance that he had been observing, but just glanced at the child a few more times, this temperament is very appreciated by Zhen Chutian, it is rare for a child to have such a heart.
"Where did you find out?"
looked at Zhen Chutian with wide eyes, I really didn't know where I knew what was in front of me, after all, they had always been little beggars, and they had also begged for help, but no one had ever thought about it or said a word more.
is young, if there is an adult next to him, it is fine, but if it is just a small person, how can he survive, over time, he will also fade this idea of escaping the devil's grasp, but he never thought that the person in front of him at this moment has this thought.
As the so-called willows and flowers are bright and bright, there have been so many dark days before, and now it is like being smashed by a pie falling from the world.
"Naturally, we have a way, and we can rescue you right now, but we also have to catch the people behind it, I don't know if you have any clues."
Although he is younger, he doesn't look like a child when he handles things, after all, he looks like an adult, and he is mature enough for Zhen Chutian to treat the person in front of him as an older person.
"Are you catching fast? Can you even arrest the person behind it? β
His pupils lit up a little, and he looked at Zhen Chutian's eyes expectantly.
"Well, so you can tell me everything you know?"
"I don't really know much, after all, we just go to the capital every day to beg according to their requirements, and hand over the money we beg for every day, but I have never met the man, and the people who come to us to get money are also changeable, but I know that the head is a woman! I've overheard them talking, and it seems to be calling them Sister or something. β
Hearing that the person in front of him called himself a catcher, the child was happy to jump, but because it was a stranger in front of him, he had to rely on them to rescue himself, so he held back his movements.
"What else? I saw that you had returned, and I had not gone out until the next morning, and what was in this house that those men had changed? β
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place, Zhen Chutian doesn't believe that there is nothing in this house.
Sure enough, the kid hesitated for a while and then nodded towards Zhen Chutian, and walked to the side with Zhen Chutian lightly.
Carefully knocking around, as if he had found a place after a while, his eyes that looked at Zhen Chutian were a little more happy, and he hurriedly let go of the place where he was standing just now, and looked at Zhen Chutian with glowing eyes.
"Actually, after we go to sleep, there will be a burst of smoke blowing in, and we will still have some vitality, but after inhaling some of those smokes, we will become drowsy, and the spirit of getting up the next day is not very good, but we often become more and more loved because of these, and then give us more silver taels."
Zhen Chutian was a little incredulous when he heard this, and he frowned tightly when he looked at Gu Chenghan looking at him, and he was faintly uneasy in his heart.
Gu Chenghan didn't expect this thing to be so easy to get, after all, there was nothing on the cover of the booklet, and this thing was so casually placed, it was too simple to think about.
"What's in it?"
With Zhen Chutian by his side, Gu Chenghan was naturally too lazy to look at those messy things, it was best for someone to explain to himself, and this person was still Zhen Chutian.
"They seem to have existed for a long time, since the beginning of the month, although it has been less than a year, but they have abducted and sold more than 30 children!"
Turning the pages one by one, every time Zhen Chutian saw one, the anger in his heart increased a little, and every time he saw a word of record, he wanted to catch that person more and more in his heart! Children are especially innocent, naΓ―ve and ignorant of the world, but it is precisely because of this that they give those people a chance to take advantage of, and it is precisely because of this that they will unscrupulously abduct and sell children, and finally use these children to make money for themselves.
The original society still couldn't tolerate the existence of these people, let alone the Chifeng Kingdom, where the empress had just ascended to the throne.
"Do you remember where you lived?"
Some can't bear to look at it, the children in the account book have no names, some are just one, two, three, four, code names, the children in front of them have no names, no family, so they were coaxed to this place by those people who have no humanity, although the wind does not blow the rain, but so many children are crammed into a small room, and even sleep has to be controlled by smoke, which shows that the people behind it have no conscience at all.
Looking at all the things in the account book, Zhen Chutian didn't dare to imagine what that smoke was, it could make people yellow and thin, lose weight day by day, and finally be riddled with illness, not only did those people not have the slightest sympathy, but even felt that it was so good that they could use the pain to blackmail or harm them again, which was really good.
If Zhen Chutian knows so much, it is all the records in the account book in front of him, each child has no name but is numbered, about once a week or so, how much silver each child earned, and which one spent something.
Another account book records the large sum of silver taels that the child begged for, but most of the numbers do have an extra word after the word Zhen, what this word represents Zhen Chutian naturally knows, if it is just one word, maybe Zhen Chutian will still think that person may still have a trace of conscience, but Zhen Chutian is wrong, that is not conscience, there is still the number of silver taels behind it!
