Chapter XVII
The current head of Blind Mountain Village is Abdul, 45 years old, with four daughters-in-law and five sons.
Although the federation practices monogamy, no one takes this seriously in the place of Blind Mountain, because the women in the village are basically abducted and trafficked, so no one will go to the government agency to "register marriage", and no one will go to any wedding, and the "marriage law" is like a fantasy for them.
The people in the blind mountains only know - the poor buy only one, and the rich have a herd of wives and concubines.
Abdul, is no exception.
At noon today, he was still in a good mood, because one of the three women brought by the traffickers who often came this time was quite beautiful, and the village chief of Abdul intended to make her his fifth wife.
However, those traffickers were also very shrewd, and they knew that the "goods" could be sold at a high price this time, so they began to open their mouths.
Since the two sides could not reach an agreement on the price in a short period of time, the village chief decided to leave the people at home for dinner tonight, and then bargain slowly during the banquet, while the three abducted women were temporarily locked up in the cellar of the village chief's house.
This cellar has been specially adapted to be used for detaining people, so to speak, and almost every household in the village of Blind Mountain has a similar cellar, and once the Federation sends someone to inspect the village, every family can put in the nearest woman who has a tendency to run away.
Originally, Abdul also planned to take advantage of his leisure time in the afternoon to play mahjong with a few traffickers to get in touch with each other, but unexpectedly, in the afternoon, there was an incident in which Afaf's father found the village.
So, the village chief asked the traffickers to stay in his house for a while, and he rushed to the scene in a hurry, and with the assistance of his four "policemen" and a large number of villagers, he arrested the father and daughter of Afaf and took them to the police station in Blind Mountain Village and put them in a detention cell.
At 4:15 p.m., when Abdul was discussing with several local tyrants and gentry in the village how to deal with the father and daughter, suddenly, there was a noise outside the police station.
No doubt...... This is Shi San asking them and their group to come.
The process of them finding this place is not complicated, people like Zhang San naturally know how to achieve their goals through negotiations, as soon as their car entered the village, Zhang San arrested a passer-by, said that he was a commissioner sent by the Federation to conduct a surprise inspection, and asked where the village chief of the other party was.
Blind Mountain Village rarely has outsiders other than traffickers and traffickers coming in, and there is nothing going on in the village at this moment, so the villagers thought when they heard that the other party called themselves federal commissioners...... It doesn't matter if you're a real commissioner or a fake commissioner, just leave you to the village chief.
In this way, Zhang San asked where the village chief was, and drove the car directly to the door of the village police station.
After the car stopped, amid the discussion of the villagers, the other three people except for the hunter got out of the car together and strode to the police station.
"Wait! Who are you? The four evil policemen under the village chief were standing guard in the courtyard at this time, and when they saw three strange strangers rushing in, they rushed up to stop them.
"We are in business, and we want to talk to your village chief about some business." The negotiation work was still carried out by Zhang San.
"Doing business?" The evil policeman at the head took a cigarette in his mouth, draped an old-fashioned police uniform that had long been eliminated by the regular federal police force on his shoulders, and squinted at the three people in front of him, "What kind of business?" The village chief is what you want to see? And also...... What do you think this is? Police station! What kind of deal to talk about? Roll ......"
"Eh, this brother, don't be angry." Zhang San, a person who has gone through a lot of wind and waves, how can he be frightened away by this little village chief's doglegs, not only did he not retreat, but he also stepped forward half a step without humility or arrogance, "We are doing business with those who came at noon today......
As he spoke, he handed over a pack of cigarettes; The pack of cigarettes was open, and in addition to a few unsmoked cigarettes, there were also a few folded banknotes.
The evil policeman glanced at the cigarette case, and immediately changed his expression, and glanced at the three colleagues beside him, and then he looked at the villagers who were probing their brains outside the courtyard gate, and suddenly raised his voice and shouted at those people: "Look at what to see! I want to see the excitement and go back to my own home! ”
These four evil policemen are all vicious dogs raised by the village chief, how dare the villagers offend them, they can only disperse in a huff when they are drunk like this.
A few seconds later, when the people were almost gone, the evil policeman who was the leader pretended to clear his throat, raised his hand and touched his nose, and when the hand was lowered, he took the box of cigarettes that Zhang San was holding.
After taking the cigarette in his hand, the evil policeman lowered his eyelids, looked in again, confirmed it, and then put the cigarette case into his pocket.
"Uh-" After the benefit was in hand, he spat out the cheap cigarette he was smoking, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it, and said unhurriedly, "Wait here." ”
So saying, he turned back, went to the door of the house, knocked twice, and went in.
After about a minute, he peeked out of the doorway again, beckoned to Zhang San and the others, and motioned for them to enter the house as well.
Zhang Sanye exchanged glances with Shi Sanwen and Saleh, and then walked over together.
This room is the office of the police station, the area is not small, in the middle of the room there are a few desks put together, and there are seven or eight stools scattered around the table, all of which have been filled by those "squires" at the moment.
Zhang San and Shi San asked these two old fritters just by a quick glance, and they already knew which of these people was the village chief, but neither of them said anything, and it was not until the police officer introduced them that they fixed their eyes on each other.
"How many...... Is there anything you want me to do? "Abdul is not a smart man, but he is already smart in this village, and he is not so easy to let his guard down, he has to guard against the three people in front of him are plainclothes agents who are tracking down trafficked people.
"I'm not going to beat around the bush." Zhang San said, "I came today to announce to you that Ould (the leader of those traffickers) has taken over their business. ”
"Huh?" Abdul continued to pretend to be garlic and said, "What Ould? I don't know anyone with that name at all. ”
His acting skills when he lied seemed to Zhang San like an elementary school student trying to pretend to be sick to skip class.
"Heh......" Zhang San sneered, "I understand, you don't believe us, don't worry, we are here with 'sincerity'." ”
When he said the word "sincerity", he turned his head and glanced at Saleh, because they had already planned it in the car, so Saleh saw this, and immediately took a few steps forward in understanding, and put a crossbody bag he had carried from the car on his desk.
"What is this?" Abdul still had a stiff face and an indifferent expression.
"Sincerity." Zhang San said, and made a gesture of please.
Abdul stared at Zhang San for a few more seconds before lifting his chin and motioning for the evil police chief standing next to him to help him open his satchel, who also did the same.
With the sound of zippers sliding and the sound of opening the bag, a large bag of cash appeared in front of everyone.
At this moment, the squires of the blind mountain village who were originally sitting in the back saw their eyes straight, and they stood up from their seats one after another, as if they wanted to burn through the bottom of the satchel with their eyes...... Even if they are rich people in this village, they have never seen so much cash piled up together.
Naturally, the village chief Abdul had never seen so much money, and a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face, and was quickly replaced by greed.
"These ...... Just a deposit. Zhang San saw that they were all hooked, and the tone of his voice when he spoke also changed, becoming full of temptation, "The deal is negotiated, and there are many more." ”
"What do you want?" By this time, Abdul had no intention of hiding anything, he seemed impatient, after all...... That's the way for a person like him.
"I'll be straight to the point, a few of us belong to a criminal organization whose name you'd better not know." When Zhang San said this, he took out an I-PEN from his jacket pocket, casually searched for Zhang Lieba's wanted warrant on the Internet, and quickly shook it in front of the gangsteries, "The one in the photo is our companion, he is sitting in the car outside the police station at this moment, I don't believe you can go out and see what he looks like......
When he showed the photos, he deliberately kept the I-PEN's screen moving sideways, so that those people could only roughly see the face of the hunter and the capital letters "ANTED", but they couldn't read the other captions below (although the content of these words can also be flickered by Zhang San, but more is better than less).
After only three seconds, Zhang San put the I-PEN back and continued, "Based on this alone, I think you should understand...... We're definitely not federal plainclothes or any other civil servant, to put it mildly...... In a place like your village where birds don't, the Federation doesn't bother to take care of it, let alone ......" he pointed to the bag of money on the table again, "...... What kind of undercover game to use so many resources to play with you. ”
"Yes...... Be. Abdul nodded in agreement, "You're right, right...... You haven't taken leave yet......"
"You can call me Zhang San, don't ask about other people's names, it's better for you to know less." At this moment, Zhang San has completely turned against the customer, and his tone of voice has become more aggressive.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang." Abdul said, "I already believe in who you are, and I know what you are doing...... But I don't understand, what are you giving us money for? ”
This is a good question, generally speaking, it is the people in this village who give money to the traffickers, and they don't come backwards.
"Our organization is now going to monopolize the human trafficking business in the entire Eurasian continent, therefore, there is an order from above, to integrate resources, reorganize the team, expand sales channels, and optimize the operation model......" Zhang San said after the word "order", these people in Blind Mountain Village basically didn't understand a word, of course, this is exactly what Zhang San expected.
"In short...... after bluffing the other party, Zhang San used a summary tone to transform the lines into a form that the other party could understand, "You won't see Ouer and his subordinates again in the future, the supply here in Blind Mountain will be ......provided by us in the future."
"Understood, understood......," replied Abdul, tremblingly, "then you are going to ...... you."
"Don't worry, we will deal with it cleanly, you don't need to do it, and no one will come to investigate, you just need to tell us where they are now, and the rest is none of your business." Zhang San replied.
"Good! They're right in my house! Abdul said, already standing up, "I'll take you there." ”
"Don't be busy just yet." Zhang San waved his hand and motioned for the other party to sit down, "This matter is not in a hurry, they won't run, I haven't finished speaking...... he paused, and then said, "I just said that the first thing in the organization is 'integrating resources', that is to say...... We need to gather all the 'goods' from all over the country, count and screen them...... Redistribute, sell. ”
When Abdul heard this, his face showed a hint of suspicion: "You mean...... Do you want us to return the girls we bought before to you? ”
"That's right." When Zhang San said this, he patted the money on the table again, "This money is the deposit for this transaction." ”
This request made the village chief, the squire and the evil policeman next to him all frown, first of all, they didn't quite understand the other party's purpose of asking people back, and secondly, they were a little entangled in letting them send their daughter-in-law away.
"Hey~ Are you guys stupid?" At this time, Shi Sanwen, who had not spoken, began to "pry the edge", and he said in a hooligan-like tone, "We are now going to buy back your 'old' daughter-in-law at the original price you bought at the beginning, what loss will it have for you?" You got someone else's body for nothing, and you got a son for nothing, and you got the money back. When we have redistributed the goods organizationally, you can buy a new one with the money. ”
Before he finished speaking, Zhang San took advantage of the situation and said: "That's it!" You all make money in this transaction. Also, in the future, when our organization is on track, you don't have to buy a daughter-in-law like now...... Waiting for a guy like Ould to come to the door, only bringing two or three people at a time to pick you out, and bargaining after the pick...... In the future, we will sell on demand, and hundreds of photos of girls will be directly selected for you, and the satisfactory ones will be delivered to your door, and the prices will be clearly marked. ”
When the two of them interrogated the "rough noodles" at the gas station, they already knew about the actions of the traffickers and the situation in the blind mountain village, so they used this "blind mountain man" thinking mode to sing and harmonize at this time, and settle the accounts for the scum.
When they said this, the village chief's group suddenly opened their mouths, and some people even applauded on the spot.
Even Zhang San didn't expect that things would go so smoothly......
The rest of the matter was all carried out in Shi Sanwen's plan.
Without hesitation, the village chief of Abdul betrayed the traffickers who had been with him for many years, and twenty minutes later, the bodies were buried in the mountains...... Of course, the work of digging pits and burying people is done by hunters with shovels.
Just after five o'clock in the afternoon, the village chief, the squire, and the four evil policemen could not wait to start going door to door to convey the "deal" that Zhang San and they had proposed.
It was impossible to talk about it on the public radio, because it could not be heard by the women of the village.
Fortunately, the village is not large, and many villagers immediately took the initiative to join the ranks of the disseminators as soon as they heard about such a good thing, and in less than three hours, the men of the whole village, as well as some of the elderly, already knew about the business.
At eleven o'clock that night, after the children and unsuspecting women of the village had gone to sleep (there were no shops at night in such villages, and naturally there was no entertainment), the greedy villagers went into action.
By midnight, hundreds of people had gathered on the main road in front of the village police station.
Every family tied up their daughter-in-law and "escorted" them here; Some of the women who had been tied up struggled so hard that their "family" pushed them to the ground, and several people sat on top of them and held them down, and after a long time, they had no strength to resist anymore.
At this time, Shi Sanwen and his entourage were eating the good wine and food provided by the village chief in a small room at the village police station (the hunter didn't eat or drink, because Shi Sanwen didn't let him), and watched this ugly drama from a distance through the window.
"Hmph...... The money was not spent in vain. Hunter said in a mocking tone, "This kind of situation, I'm afraid I can't see it all over the planet." ”
"Why did it 'spend'?" When Zhang San heard this, he immediately continued, "Shall I get back the money?" He took a sip of peanuts, took a sip of wine, and added, "Although the bag of cash was found in Nassar's villa, I didn't plan to give it to them." ”
"Huh?" Lieba didn't understand anymore, "If you don't give money, how can we rescue those women from the village?" The people in this village are stupid and greedy, but precisely because they are such people...... It's unlikely that you'll be a white wolf with empty gloves. ”
"yes, if you don't get the money, they won't hand it over." Saleh also answered.
At this moment, among the four, Saleh was the only one who felt nervous and anxious, although he knew that with these three in front of him, he had a good chance of reuniting with his wife, but he could not help but feel nervous before he actually achieved his goal.
Two seconds later, Shi Sanwen spoke: "We don't need them to 'hand over' people, we just need them to gather people like they are now." ”
His words obviously meant something, and the hunter quickly understood the meaning and felt a chill.
"You ......" Although Hunter Ba knew that there were only four of them in this room and no one was watching from the partition wall, he still subconsciously lowered his voice before saying, "...... Are you going to slaughter them all? ”
"Any questions?" Shi Sanwen asked rhetorically.
"Even the old man won't let go?" Hunter asked again.
"This village...... As long as you have bought a daughter-in-law, or become an accomplice, even if you are only fourteen or fifteen years old, I will not let it go. Shi San asked back.
"You ...... Wouldn't it be too extreme? "Although I may not be qualified to say this...... Don't you think it's more appropriate to let the federal police deal with the people of the village after these women are rescued? ”
"Processing? How to deal with it? Shi Sanwen laughed dryly, "Heh, will they sue everyone in this village at the same time?" Including the elderly and teenagers under the age of eighteen? Let's not talk about 'the law does not blame the people'...... Even if we assume that there is a very clean and honest prosecutor who intends to prosecute the whole village, how do you think this lawsuit should be fought?
"There are a lot of women in this village who have been arrested for many years, they are old and resigned, and some of them have given up on running away and giving up their old lives...... How do you gather evidence that their movement here is restricted? What do you convict without evidence?
"Take a step back and say, what if you are convicted? In accordance with federal law, the purchase of trafficked women and children...... The penalty is only up to three years in prison, and the rape, injury, insult, etc., of the victim after the bribery, is separately sentenced according to the crime of rape and assault, but those acts are ...... Evidence still needs to be collected, and without evidence, it is difficult to resentence. ”
Hunter originally thought that in addition to some achievements in terms of abilities, Shi Sanwen was basically a rude dead house, but he never expected it...... The other party is not only educated, but also can use his knowledge to fool him as long as he is willing.
"Also, don't forget...... Shi San's words were not finished, "those women have been isolated from the outside world for too long, and their families may have given up looking for them or have died, and it is a problem for them to even survive outside, let alone raise one or more children alone...... How sure are you that they won't lie for the sake of their children and side with the perpetrators? ”
"Okay, you have a point." Hunter couldn't answer the other party's question, but he already understood the point of the other party's words, "Kill and kill, I'll just ask casually." ”
"Saleh, what do you think about the old history's approach?" On the other side, while listening to the conversation between Lieba and Shi Sanwen, Zhang San saw that the expression on Saleh's face had also changed several times, so he asked.
"I absolutely support it." And Saleh actually replied with these five words categorically; After speaking, he took a sip of wine, and then said, "If my wife or daughter is caught in such a village, and is insulted, abused, and used as a tool for procreation...... It doesn't matter if the other party is sentenced to three years, ten years, or more than 20 years, it is not enough for me...... Because the lives of those scum are worthless in my opinion, how can they be compared or converted with the lives of my relatives? ”
"Look, there are still people who understand." Shi Sanwen also took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "Even if something like 'crime' can be accurately converted by a certain formula, that formula is definitely not 'law'. ”
"Who'...... Or 'what' to settle the score? "Can you?" ”
"Of course I can't." Shi San replied, "But today, here, I am more qualified than any individual or system to assume the responsibility of this reckoning. ”
"Just because you're the strongest here?" Hunter raised his eyebrows tentatively.
"Isn't this nonsense?" Shi Sanwen replied in a natural tone, "Since the birth of mankind, in every corner of this world, the right to interpret and liquidate 'fairness' and 'evil' has always been in the hands of the most powerful individuals or groups in the local area at that time, and the weak can only pray for the mercy and mercy of the strong; It's just that with the increase in the number of human beings, this originally simple relationship has gradually become complicated, which has formed things such as society and class, but the essence of some things...... Nothing has changed. ”
"Okay." Hunter leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath; Shi San asked a lot of words that made him feel a headache, but he couldn't ignore them, "That'...... May you, merciful, have a smooth slaughter tonight. As he spoke, he poured a glass of wine and held it up.
"Cheers." Zhang San toasted.
"Cheers." Saleh also raised his glass.
"You put the wine down for me!" But when Shi San asked to raise his glass, he shouted at the hunter, "Don't fish in troubled waters for me, who the allows you to drink?" After saying that, he clinked glasses with the other two, "Come on, let's do it." ”
