Volume 2 Ten Witches in Southern Xinjiang Chapter 90 Discovering the Den
"Then what kind of evidence must be found to convict them?" Lin Xingyu asked.
"The evidence of their abduction and trafficking of children, as long as they find the place where they hide the abduction and trafficking of children, or catch them abducting and trafficking children, it is fine, I must let these gangs of thugs beg for death!"
"What will happen to the children they traffick?"
"The trafficked children, who are very young and have good qualifications, have never been seen in the investigation, and the preliminary judgment is that they should be sold elsewhere or for some special purpose. Those who are young and have a bad posture are generally disabled, let them beg, cheat money, and leave them in the care of older people. These people were abducted regardless of their age, but the older ones did not have any pity for the younger ones. The first sin is that if they are not satisfied, they will beat the older ones to vent their anger, and they will take revenge on the younger ones even more severely, and it is common for them to beat them severely and break their limbs at the worst, and even make them adults and sell them everywhere for people to play with. Xu Zi'an sighed and shook his head slightly.
"What is a human being?" Lin Xingyu asked suspiciously when he heard this word for the first time.
"That's it...... The human body is to chop off the limbs of a person, gouge out the eyes, inject copper water into the ears to make them deaf, pour medicine into the throat, cut off the tongue, destroy the vocal cords, make it unable to speak, and some have to cut off the nose, shave the hair, shave off the eyebrows, and then apply a medicine to destroy the hair and cysts, so that the hair will not grow after falling out, and will never grow hair again, and finally put it in a jar. If they don't die, they sell it to people who like to hunt for curiosities, and they buy it back to play for a while at most, and they will get tired of it, and these children will eventually die. โ
Lin Xingyu didn't speak, just nodded silently, this kind of thing sounds very infiltrating, but someone will do it.
"I'll come back when there's any other news. Xu Zi'an finished speaking and left.
These words also made some changes in Lin Xingyu's heart, originally he was just helping each other with Xu Zi'an, Xu Zi'an helped him take care of his family from bullying, and his help to Xu Zi'an was an exchange, but now it is not, and he wants to catch these people from the bottom of his heart and eradicate these scourges.
Lin Xingyu continued to practice Xuangong during the day, and when he practiced Xuanqi at night, he couldn't move, but he would always go out to the street in his free time, if he found a begging child, he would be extra attentive and follow him all the way, but he didn't find any clues, most of those begging children are normal people, no disabilities, and they will live in some broken temples and other places at night, and the money they begging for is usually used to buy food, Lin Xingyu will also give them a little money, not much, save a little, they can use it for half a month, and they are afraid that they will cause any trouble if they give moreใ
On this day, the trees of Jianan County sprouted, with a little more greenery, and the grass also drilled out of the soil, revealing only a little bit of tender white tips, and the spring breeze blew across the earth, and everything recovered.
Lin Xingyu was still walking around the street in his spare time, and at a corner, he found a little beggar, his arms were disabled, his torn clothes were empty, his face was unkempt, and his face was full of scars, although the weather had improved, it was not warm, most of the people were still wearing thick clothes, but the little beggar was only wearing a thin coat and thin pants, huddled in the corner and shivering from the cold, his lips were blue, and some copper coins and broken silver had been piled up in the broken bowl in front of him.
Lin Xingyu pretended to pass by, threw a piece of silver into the bowl, and then continued to walk without looking back, hid around the corner, and quietly observed.
Sure enough, someone saw that Lin Xingyu was gone, sneakily ran out from not far away, looked around as he ran, and went to the little beggar to take all the silver in the broken bowl and kicked it into his arms, leaving only the copper coin, and ran back again.
Lin Xingyu was indignant in his heart, it turned out that what Xu Zi'an said was true, these people could be so cruel, and it was not too much to punish children with such a poisonous hand.
He pretended to walk around the neighborhood, occasionally buying snacks and eating them as he went, but never took his eyes off the little beggar.
Until dusk, the people around him had gone, and two children of about fifteen or sixteen years old ran out and dragged the little beggar away, and the little beggar shivered with cold, his whole body was stiff, and he had not eaten all afternoon, and it was difficult to walk, so the two men forced the little beggar to hurry up by kicking, pushing, and slapping.
Lin Xingyu quietly followed behind, and the two older children on the road would occasionally look back to see if anyone was coming, Lin Xingyu cleverly dodged it, the book given by Xu Zi'an was still a little useful, and the two children themselves had no experience, but according to the requirements, they looked back regularly, and if someone followed, they would take a detour back.
The distance was very far, Lin Xingyu followed all the way, about four or five kilometers, before coming to a village, this village is more like a village, there is a big wooden door at the entrance of the village, three children to the door, I don't know what to say, someone opened the door and let them in.
Lin Xingyu didn't dare to get too close, firstly, his current Xuanqi realm was too low, if there was a master inside, he would not only expose himself, but also put his life into it, and then no one would be able to pass the news back, and secondly, he would continue to squat aside to see what the situation was.
Sure enough, Lin Xingyu squatted for nearly an hour, in this hour, a total of sixteen groups of people entered, each group was three to four people, some were two large and one small, some were two large and two small, some were two small and one large, most of the young were disabled, or missing arms or legs, even if they were not missing, the arms and legs were twisted and not in shape, it can be basically confirmed that this is a criminal den, as for whether there are other dens, whether there are more people, how to rescue these children, it is Xu Zi'an's business, Lin Xingyu just needs to bring the news backใ
After dark, Lin Xingyu quietly escaped and returned directly to the Giant Sword Hall, he didn't want to go to Jinxuansi to find Xu Zi'an and expose himself, under the current situation, he should try to avoid direct contact with Xu Zi'an, so as not to be found out that there were too many contacts between the two, just wait for Xu Zi'an to come to him, as long as he didn't startle the snake, I believe those people would not leave.
Coincidentally, the next day, Lin Xingyu was about to go out to walk around the street to see if yesterday's little beggar was in his original position, and Xu Zi'an came to him.
"Yesterday I found a little beggar with a physical disability, and two older children were hiding nearby, watching, begging for enough money, and the two men would come out and take away the excess silver, leaving only some copper coins. Then I followed them until I came to a hidden village, where I stayed until dark, and a total of sixteen groups entered, each group was three or four people, and most of the younger ones were disabled......" Lin Xingyu elaborated on yesterday's events.
After Xu Zi'an heard this, he slammed his fist on the table, and the teacups on the table flew up and fell again, scolding: "These brutes, scum, scum, go, take me!"
Xu Zi'an was so angry that he pushed the door out directly, and Lin Xingyu hurriedly ran to the front to lead the way.
Out of the Giant Sword Hall, the two rushed all the way to the place where Lin Xingyu met the little beggar yesterday, and saw from a distance that the little beggar was still there, but it was no longer the little beggar from yesterday, but a little girl with two legs missing, lying on the ground, lying on her body, regardless of whether the ground was cold or not.
"Take me to that village. Xu Zi'an took a breath, but calmed down a lot, and his voice was much calmer.
The two walked around the road, Xu Zi'an was wearing a tiger Jiao suit, it was inconvenient to come forward, and he followed in the dark all the way, it seemed that only Lin Xingyu was wandering on the path, having nothing to do to pick up roots or pick up stones to throw around, like a person who was bored at home and came out to go out.
Xu Zi'an followed aside, occasionally showing a figure, letting Lin Xingyu know that he was still there, don't worry.
It was still early, and I didn't meet anyone along the way, and I could see the gate of the village from a distance.
"This is it!" Lin Xingyu said to the air, pointing to the door.
"Come!" Xu Zi'an poked his head out on the dirt slope next to him to summon Lin Xingyu.
Lin Xingyu and Xu Zi'an hid together, the two held their breath and contemplated, one observed one side, Lin Xingyu observed the way when he came, someone came back and immediately called Xu Zi'an, Xu Zi'an was to observe the village, if there was really a master inside, he could also find out as soon as possible, and it was the most correct choice to complete the task when the two of them were safe.
Time passed minute by minute, and no one walked on this path all afternoon, such a time was the most difficult, if it weren't for wanting to seek justice for those disabled children, Lin Xingyu would have been able to sleep.
At dusk, someone finally went to the village, it was four children, two big and two small, the big one was smiling, and there was a lot of food in his hand, and he ate it in a big gulp, it was estimated that he could eat it almost before entering the door, and the two grades also had food in their hands, but only a pitiful one, even so, it made them cherish it extraordinarily, and licked it one bite at a time, for fear that it would be too wasteful to eat it at once.
There are more and more children returning to the village, there are two more groups today than yesterday, a total of eighteen groups, I don't know if Lin Xingyu came late yesterday, he has already gone back to two groups, or people from other dens have come, the situation is unknown.
Lin Xingyu and Xu Zi'an waited until it was completely dark, and no one passed by before they returned, and did not return the same way, but Xu Zi'an took him back home on a long detour, afraid that he would run into people when he returned the same way, and then startled the snake.
"Little brother, this time thanks to you, I can find the den of this gang of villains, tomorrow I will lead someone to surround and suppress it, then you hide in the shadows, help me pay attention to whether there is anything missing. Xu Zi'an said.
"This ...... Can I find something that you Jinxuan Division can't find?"
"It's okay, it's best to find it, it doesn't matter if you don't, tomorrow at three o'clock, you wait for me at the corner of the path, just follow us." โ
"Good. โ
