It was very cold, Yang Duo was shivering with cold, she was wearing enough clothes, and even her face was tightly wrapped, but she hadn't blown the cold wind outside for a long time, and she couldn't suppress her body's natural reaction.

Song Xiaoting gave the gun to Yang Duo and taught Yang Duo how to use the gun, but Chu Xiang knew that it was just in vain, and it was simply delusional to let a weak woman be able to use a rifle in a short time, but Chu Xiang did not stop Song Xiaoting, because it was not strength, but confidence.

Jiangcheng is not far away, less than 30 kilometers, and is a medium-sized city, second only to the provincial capital before the upheaval. The three of them walked for a day on a thirty-kilometer road, and if they didn't take Yang Duo and the two of them in two hours, they could get there.

It is an ancient city, and after the upheaval, the newly built urban area is extended by the ancient city wall, forming a city with a length and width of about three kilometers.

"Jiangcheng is there, and the next part of the road is very dangerous, and you must raise the spirit of twelve." Chu Xiang pointed to the building in front of him and admonished.

"Isn't it safe to get into town?" Song Xiaoting asked puzzled.

"Fast into the city, not yet in the city, the last step is the most dangerous one. When it gets dark, many people will lie in ambush on the way back to the city, and they will attack and kill the people who return to the city, they usually hide in the snow, such people we call Voldemort. Chu Xiang said.

"They specialize in killing people and eating human flesh?" Song Xiaoting's face changed a little.

"Yes, they don't hunt wild beasts, they hunt people for food." Chu Xiangdao.

Song Xiaoting was about to vomit, she remembered the fat palm on the plate, the palm of the shopkeeper.

"Keep an eye on your surroundings and don't leave my two-meter range." Chu Xiang said solemnly.

If it was just to protect Song Xiaoting, it would be very simple, but with a Yang Duo who had no ability to protect herself at all, Chu Xiang was not sure that he could guarantee her safety 100%.

A weak footstep was easy to distinguish, and soon the three of them encountered the first attack, the attacker burst out of the snow and slashed at Yang Duo, Yang Duo didn't react at all, he couldn't react at all, he didn't know that the knife had reached his head.

Song Xiaoting drew her sword, and as soon as the sword came out of its sheath, Chu Xiang had already kicked the person away and landed in the snow more than ten meters away, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Voldemort's second attack was aimed at Song Xiaoting, Song Xiaoting reacted in time, the two started a fight, the attacker saw that the blow could not be achieved, and immediately wanted to escape, but Chu Xiang did not give him a chance to escape, and cut the person over in the snow with a knife.

The three of them encountered six attacks, but fortunately, the three of them did not encounter Voldemort who acted together, and they failed to put any pressure on Chu Xiang, after all, Voldemort is such a thing, it is better to do it alone.

Smoothly entered the city, Song Xiaoting helped Yang Duo hide the rifle under his coat, the soldiers at the city gate looked at the three people, and did not search, who did not bring some self-defense weapons in these years, let alone two women, who is not tolerant of women.

Women are always noticed, not to mention women who don't look ugly, ignoring the people who follow them, the other party shouldn't have the courage to do it in the city.

After finding an action station to live in, Chu Xiang asked the waiter to deliver the food directly to the room, without staying too much in the lobby, so as not to attract more attention and cause more trouble.

Chu Xiang opened a suite, and the three of them went up to the room, Chu Xiang carefully inspected the room to make sure that there was no eavesdropping camera equipment before sitting down.

"From the time we entered the city until now, there are eleven people who have been eyeing us, maybe not eleven people, but eleven groups." Chu Xiang looked at the two of them.

"What then?" Yang Duo said worriedly.

"They shouldn't dare to do it in the city, but it will hinder our plans." Chu Xiangdao.

"Can we get rid of them?" Song Xiaoting asked.

"You see, even if we get rid of them, there will be others." Chu Xiangdao.

Song Xiaoting didn't know what to do, she felt for the first time the difficulties of being a woman, two women can bring such a big trouble, and what woman can gain a firm foothold in this world.

"Don't go out tomorrow, just stay in this room, it's safe here for the time being, I'll go out and investigate the situation and see if I can find any clues." Chu Xiangdao.

Yang Duo was very tired after walking for a day, and went to bed after eating, she knew that she couldn't help, and not causing trouble to others was the best help.

"What if we find her daughter?" Song Xiaoting said.

"It depends on what you want to do." Chu Xiangdao.

Song Xiaoting fell into deep thought, this is a difficult problem to solve, no matter what she wants to do, it is a thorny problem.

"I'll go out for a walk, you stay here well, don't come out." Chu Xiang admonished, took the key and went out.

There are many dreams at night, although this is an action station, it does not guarantee 100% safety, you can't kill people and set fires, it doesn't mean that you can't use other methods, there are many tricks in the rivers and lakes, and there are any ways to cheat and deceive, women like Song Xiaoting and Yang Duo, who have little experience in the rivers and lakes, don't know if they are abducted and sold.

Now that they have just moved in, those people do not dare to start immediately, they will first inquire about the target, and make sure that it is the target that can be started before starting, this process generally takes half a day, and now it is dark, and the alertness of people at night is higher than during the day, and they generally do not test it at night.

Chu Xiang's idea is very simple, take advantage of this safe time to first investigate the Jiangcheng Children's Shelter to see if you can find any information, if you can find Qian Huixin, it is naturally good, if you can't find it, you can also understand the situation and prepare for the next step.

No one peeped into the corridor outside, and after going out, Chu Xiang immediately changed his appearance, went to the shopping mall of the action station to change his clothes, put on several coats, and then went to the old site of the children's shelter in the east of the city.

The Jiangcheng Children's Shelter no longer exists, and the old site has been converted into a government office. It is impossible for a child to survive unless someone protects it, and ordinary people can't protect a child at all, Chu Xiang hasn't seen a child for more than a year, this Jiangcheng Children's Shelter has no children to take in, it has lost its proper function, and it was closed almost a year ago and transformed into a government office.

The old site of the detention center is not big, just two buildings, the door number is hung by the Jiangcheng Government Planning Bureau, there are soldiers on duty at the door, and there are lights on in some rooms, Chu Xiang turned around, and found no threat, and then sneaked into the Planning Bureau, and entered a room with a sign of the director's office hanging at the door with the lights on.

Finding that there was a stranger on the other side of the table, the middle-aged man who was processing the documents was a little surprised, and found that Chu Xiang did not have the murderous appearance of killing and setting fires, calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”

Chu Xiang pulled a chair over and sat down, and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, the purpose of coming here is very simple, I want to know everything related to the children's shelter." ”

The middle-aged man frowned slightly, and said, "The children's shelter has long been dissolved, who knows what happened so long ago." ”

"It's not good for me to be sloppy, my patience is limited." Chu Xiangdao.

"It's been more than a year since the renovation here, and I don't know where the information has gone, and the surviving children have long since disappeared, and you can't find the results if you want to." The middle-aged man said.

"I've heard that government officials like to do tai chi, and I didn't believe it before, but now I believe it." Chu Xiangdao, picked up a pen, and said to the middle-aged man, "What would it feel like if your hand was nailed to the table?" ”

The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and he said, "I really don't know, it's only been four months since I was transferred here." ”

"Then who knows?"

"You let me think about it first, it's been too long, even our leaders have changed several times, and there are few people who know the relevant situation, so I can't help it." The middle-aged man said.

Chu Xiang sneered, and suddenly moved, and the pen passed through the back of the middle-aged man's hand and inserted it into the hard tabletop.

The middle-aged man screamed, trembling under the severe pain, sweat instantly rained down, and his teeth chattered.

"And now?" Chu Xiangdao.

The middle-aged man closed his mouth tightly, and he didn't mean to speak, but he was very hard.

"Sooner or later, you have to say, why suffer more, or do you have to take in all the major involvement, so you have to hold on?" Chu Xiang stared at the middle-aged man and said.

The middle-aged man lowered his head slightly to avoid Chu Xiang's eyes, and kept inhaling the cool air, but he still didn't mean to speak.

"Okay, then I can only go to your superior, I believe he will be very interested in you betraying him."

"If you move, he will definitely not be able to escape the government's pursuit." The middle-aged man said.

"I don't want to kill him, I just tell him that you betrayed him, that the matter of the children's shelter has been exposed, and tell him to run for his life." Chu Xiang is the way of the old god.

"The director is so smart, how can he be deceived by you." The middle-aged man said.

"I'm afraid he's not smart enough to think too much." Chu Xiang laughed.

The middle-aged man's hand was a little shaky again, and he didn't know if it was too painful and shivering, or he was afraid.

Chu Xiang searched for the middle-aged man's mobile phone, searched for a while in the address book, found a number named Director Zhao, showed the mobile phone to the middle-aged man, and asked, "This is your director?" ”

"It's not." The middle-aged man said.

"Then I'll have to wait and see." Chu Xiang said, and dialed the phone.

The phone rang a few times, and Chu Xiang suddenly hung up the phone again, saying, "It seems that this is a bit bad, what if it's not." ”

After a while, Chu Xiang said: "Even if it's not, it doesn't matter, it doesn't seem to be an unpleasant thing to make a phone call in the middle of the night." As he spoke, he dialed Director Zhao's phone again, and without waiting for the person over there to answer the phone, Chu Xiang suddenly hung up the phone again after ringing four times.

Chu Xiang looked at the middle-aged man and showed a weird smile, the middle-aged man was a little confused, after a while, his face suddenly changed, his hands stopped shaking, his waist straightened, but his lips began to tremble, and his teeth chattered a little: "I'll tell you anything you want to know." ”

Chu Xiang smiled, these officialdom people were the most suspicious, they made two phone calls in the middle of the night and hung up, who knows what Director Zhao on the other side would think, if he is really the director of this planning bureau, it will be even more fun, judging from the reaction of the middle-aged man, it is obvious that this director Zhao is the director of the planning bureau.

"You just have to rest assured that I won't implicate you in matters that have nothing to do with you." Chu Xiang said, reassuring the middle-aged man.

"A gentleman's words are quick and the horse is whipped." The middle-aged man said.

"Don't worry." Chu Xiang nodded.

"The children's shelter was disbanded a year ago, and the remaining eleven children were taken away, I don't know where they went, I heard that they were taken away at night, and I don't know the specifics, but I still heard about this situation from a drunk colleague, and I heard that it was related to some big people." The middle-aged man said.

"You chief don't know either?"

"I don't know about this, I may or may not know." The middle-aged man said.

"Then why are you so afraid that I will call your director?"

"Our director is very suspicious, if you say something to our director that makes him suspicious, I will die." The middle-aged man said.

"Okay, then I'll talk to your director now." Chu Xiang got up and said.

"Slow, friend, have something to say." The middle-aged man hurriedly shouted.

"It's you who don't say it well." Chu Xiang sat down and said.

"I really don't know where those kids went, you can go to my colleague and ask, he should know." The middle-aged man said.

"What's his name and where does he live?" Chu Xiang asked.

"Huang Yongqiang, lives in 304, No. 344 Donghua Road." The middle-aged man said.

"Which is his office?" Chu Xiang asked.

"The second room on the right." The middle-aged man said.

"Very good, I'll take a look, you'd better wait for me here quietly, or I won't guarantee the consequences." Chu Xiang nodded.

The middle-aged man nodded solemnly.

Chu Xiang went out, there was no movement outside, and quietly entered the office that the middle-aged man said, and looked for it for a while with the bright light of the mobile phone screen, confirming that this office was indeed owned by a person named Huang Yongqiang.

The middle-aged man was very cooperative, and he didn't make any movement until Chu Xiang came back, and I don't know if he called the police.
