Chapter 18: The Truth Revealed
The couple ran as fast as they could, and after getting off the bus, they disappeared in a few seconds, like rabbits.
Li Changjing ran out of the car, found that Liu Qingtan did not follow, and secretly scolded "stupid woman", so he could only go back and look at her from afar.
Liu Qingtan was talking to the policeman who was holding the child, and when he saw Li Changjing coming back, he ignored his eyes, and asked stupidly: "Did people catch up?" ”
Li Changjing almost came up with a chase after your uncle, but he couldn't help it, walked back with a calm face, took Liu Qingtan's hand, picked up two duffel bags, pretended to be uncontrollable, and said to the people in the car: "I'm sorry, let's go to the toilet and come back in five minutes, please wait for the driver." ”
"Stop!"
The two policemen's faces were a little cloudy, and the policeman who didn't hold the child put his hand on his waist and said to Li Changjing: "Young man, don't be in a hurry to leave, we still have a lot to ask you." ”
"Run!"
Li Changjing put his heart sideways, let it go, pulled up Liu Qingtan and ran all the way, after running out of the car, rushed down a steep slope on the side of the road, and then ran into a bush in the distance.
Liu Qingtan had never experienced this kind of thing, she was so tired that she couldn't breathe, and the confusion and doubts in her heart accumulated together, which made her almost crazy, but after asking Li Changjing several times in a row, he was silent, just leading the way in front with his head stuffy.
After more than ten minutes, the two walked out of the bushes and came to a cornfield, Liu Qingtan couldn't hold back any longer, sat on the ground, and said angrily: "Li Changjing, are you crazy, don't sit on a good bus, bring me to this kind of wilderness, what do you want to do?" As she spoke, she moved to the side, carefully clasping her arms with both hands, looking very insecure.
Li Changjing couldn't cry or laugh a little, he was a little tired after walking for so long, so he had to sit down next to him and said, "Don't you think it's strange what happened this day?" ”
Liu Qingtan frowned, "Strange? ”
"Originally, we were going to take a plane to Daye City, but the plane didn't have a ticket, we took the train, the train was full, and we wanted to drive by ourselves, but the car broke down."
Li Changjing held up a finger, "Don't you think that the reason why we got on that bus was forced?" ”
Liu Qingtan's face was slightly pale, and he looked a little suddenly realized, "You mean, all this is not a coincidence, but artificially caused, deliberately so that we can't buy tickets?" ”
"The ticket is not necessarily artificial." Li Changjing shook his head and said softly: "You told me before that you still have a month to wait for the medicinal herbs to mature, but all of a sudden, your young lady's condition has deteriorated, and it is at the peak of the students' return to school, so you have to rush back early." ”
Liu Qingtan's face was a little unsightly, he thought about it carefully for a while, shook his head and said, "Impossible!" The deterioration of the young lady's condition was told by the fact that she personally called me, and this cannot be faked. ”
Li Changjing was a little helpless about her innocence, and sneered: "Of course it's true that your young lady's condition has deteriorated, but why is it deteriorating at this time?" ”
Liu Qingtan stiffened, finally understood the key point, gritted his teeth and said, "You mean, the reason why Miss's condition deteriorated was because someone harmed her?" ”
Li Changjing snorted, stood up, and pulled Liu Qingtan up from the ground by the way, "Someone deliberately made your young lady's condition worsen and forced you to rush back early, but it turned out to be just in time for the rush hour to return to school, resulting in you not being able to buy air and train tickets, and the car broke down again, so you could only get on that bus." ”
Liu Qingtan trembled all over, and his face was pale.
"After we got on the bus, not only did we just encounter human traffickers, but there was also a police car passing by in this kind of wilderness and mountains, how could there be so many coincidences."
Liu Qingtan was surprised: "You mean, that pair of traffickers and policemen are all fake?" ”
Li Changjing sighed and explained: "Of course the traffickers are real, and of course the police are also real, but someone deliberately let us get into a trafficker's car, and then report to the police comrades, and when the police comrades come to arrest the traffickers, can they also take care of us by the way?" For example, take us back to record a confession? Let's explain what happened? ”
Liu Qingtan didn't dare to listen to it anymore, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she felt.
"How did you find out that couple were traffickers?" Liu Qingtan asked curiously.
"After I got in the car, I kept feeling that something was wrong, so I didn't fall asleep at all." Li Changjing said softly: "Don't look at the couple's duffel bag with a newly bought can of milk powder, but they don't even have a bottle, what kind of parents would forget to bring such an important thing?" And what made me feel the most angry was that the man actually picked up a mineral water bottle from the ground and used it to make milk powder for the child, replacing it with you, would you treat your child like this? ”
"I see." Liu Qingtan finally understood everything, but since the child was abducted and trafficked, there was a problem with the two police investigations, wouldn't the child ......
"You don't have to worry about that kid." Li Changjing said with a smile: "When the two police officers showed their documents just now, I specially read it, it is true, they should just be ordered to create a little trouble for us, and such a big matter of child abduction and trafficking, they will definitely investigate it thoroughly, those two traffickers have already seen their appearances, and they will definitely not be able to escape." The police will send the kid home safely, too. ”
Liu Qingtan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally let go of his hanging heart.
"But then again, did you really never leave town?" Liu Qingtan said strangely: "If you haven't experienced strong winds and waves, why would your observation be so good, you have noticed many details that I haven't paid attention to." ”
"It's just that you're too careless." Li Changjing smiled and was noncommittal. The most difficult days when he was a child was that he and Shui'er only ate half a piece of moldy steamed buns for a week, and the neighbors around him had enough surplus food, but they never gave them alms, and if it wasn't for Aunt Liu's family, the two of them would have starved to death.
Therefore, although Li Changjing is young, he is very good at observing words and colors, and he listens too much to cold words, and he can even analyze the other party's psychological activities through his tone.
These skills are some painful memories, and they are not worth showing off.
"Li Changjing, I'm sorry." Liu Qingtan blushed suddenly, "When I was in the car, I shouldn't have told you such a heavy ......"
Before she finished speaking, almost instantly, Li Changjing's face changed greatly, and he shouted: "Get down!" ”
In the next second, Liu Qingtan was thrown to the ground by Li Changjing, and an arm-thick wooden stick swept over her head fiercely.
In a panic, Liu Qingtan raised his head and found that under the night, there were actually four people wearing masks beside them, their faces could not be seen clearly, but their eyes were fierce, and they were each holding a stick in their hands, obviously not good.
If Li Changjing hadn't reacted fast enough just now, once she was hit with that stick on the head, she would either be dead or disabled!
Thinking of this, Liu Qingtan felt a nameless fire in his heart, and shouted unbearably: "I know that you are sent by the second master, why bother, if something happens to the young lady, the second master will not get any benefit at all!" ”
The four men did not answer, no one even spoke, but they met each other's eyes, and then they rushed up and struck the sticks in their hands.
For a moment, Liu Qingtan was so frightened that he stood on the spot, his face bloodless.
Fear hung over her, making it difficult for her to move.
At this moment, a figure behind her quickly came to her side, both vigorous and agile, as fast as a wolf in a hunt, flew up with a kick, kicked a stick away, and then bent down to pick up a handful of sand from the ground, and threw it on the faces of the other two people, and then leaned up, reached out with both hands, grabbed the stick in the hands of the two men, and pulled it hard, and snatched the stick over.
Li Changjing waved a stick in one hand, waving it whirringly, beating the four people to the head, crying bitterly, one of them was hit with a stick on the head because he couldn't dodge, and immediately screamed, fell to the ground, and the mask fell off in a panic, through the bright moonlight, Li Changjing sighed, and said in surprise: "Uncle, why are you here?" Are you tired of me for blackmailing the traffickers' money, so you hold a grudge against me? ”
Liu Qingtan was taken aback, looked carefully, and found that the person lying on the ground was indeed the old man on the bus.
The old man was over seventy years old, but his body was still very tough, even if he was beaten by Li Changjing, he still didn't say a word, just stared at them with gloomy eyes.
The other three people were dressed in casual clothes, and although they couldn't see their faces clearly, it went without saying that they were definitely passengers on the bus.
