Chapter 358 Rescue
Chen Buyu, feeling like he had discovered a shocking secret, moved slightly towards the door and ate the meat bun in his hand without any appetite.

By the time they arrived at Floating Cloud Mountain, it was completely dark.

A half crescent moon hung obliquely on the treetop, sprinkling the clear and cool light towards the earth.

Yu Linlang leaned forward and patted the man lying on the front of the car pretending to be dead, "Is your second-in-command a full-time human trafficker?"

The man lay in the car without saying a word.

Yu Linlang was not going to tolerate this. She stretched out her finger and pressed his mute point, then stabbed him in the thigh.

The man stared up at the sky with his eyes wide open, his limbs twitching unconsciously as he felt pain all over his body.

"I'm giving you face, right?" Yu Linlang patted his face with a dagger, "I'll untie your acupuncture points, dare you to bark like a dog?"

After saying that, she stretched out her hand and slapped his acupuncture points, and said unhappily, "Why are you crying, you grown man? You just got cut twice, right?"

The man had no words to express his pain and tears kept streaming down his face.

"Is this the transit point for your human trafficking?"

The man nodded, his expression terrified.

He dared not not answer.

Lady Jade Fox's methods are a bit crazy. If you don't answer her questions properly, she might slash you with a couple of knives, which could be fatal.

"Where do you usually send it to? How often do you send it?" Yu Linlang asked with a smile.

"One, one month, and I don't know where they will be sent to in Ancheng."

Yu Linlang smiled and nodded, "Wouldn't it be better if we cooperated earlier?"

She turned and glanced at Chen Bu Yu.

The latter clasped his fists and saluted, "Sir, I will lead the charge!"

"What my lord means is that you follow me!" Yu Linlang instructed expressionlessly.

Mu Zhao held her hand.

"It's okay. I'll play a song to make them all fall asleep. We can simply solve the problem without fighting."

Mu Zhao smiled and nodded, "That's even better."

At first, Chen Buyu didn't understand what it meant to fall asleep while playing a tune.

It wasn't until Lord Jade Fox took out a jade flute and played it for less than half a cup of tea that he felt groggy and wanted to fall asleep...

Yu Linlang stretched out her finger and tapped his head.

Chen Buyu, who was originally dizzy, suddenly became half awake. When he looked up, he saw that the manager of the Jinhua Casino had his head drooped, and was obviously asleep.

Chang Qing exhaled, "Your Excellency has a good method."

Chen Buyu was also very surprised, "I wonder what song the adults are playing?"

"It's just an ordinary lullaby." Yu Linlang jumped out of the car and stretched her limbs. "Let's go in and take a look."

The group walked into the courtyard in a dignified manner, as if they were in an empty place.

The waiter entered the yard and was buried among the farmhouses at the foot of the mountain, looking very inconspicuous.

Yu Linlang led them all the way inside and saw three or four burly men lying down at the gate of the courtyard and at the doors of the two side rooms.

Apparently, all these people on duty were knocked down by Lord Jade Fox's soothing song.

“Just leave these people like this?”

Yu Linlang: "Go get the rope from the carriage, tie them up and take them back."

The thugs under the human traffickers were naturally punished together. A few people kicked open the door of the wing room and saw five or six girls lying in a corner, the oldest of them was about twelve or thirteen years old, and the youngest was only five or six years old.

Looking at the room next door, the situation is similar to this one.

"Are these little girls all gamblers who have lost their minds to gambling and are using their own children to pay off their debts?" Chen Buyu was very shocked.

"There's nothing a gambler can't do, I guess."

Yu Linlang asked Changqing and the others to search the house, and soon they found several account books in the secret compartment.

After looking through it, I found that it was indeed the case.

The room was dark. Yu Linlang asked Chang Qing to light the lamp and then went to wake up the little girls one by one.

When more than a dozen children of all ages in the two rooms woke up, they looked very frightened and almost all huddled together and sobbed.

Yu Linlang stepped forward and introduced herself, saying that she was from the Jingzhao government office and had come specially to rescue.

A group of children looked at them in confusion, fear in their eyes.

"Are you Qiu Tingfang?" Yu Linlang simply squatted down and looked at a child huddled in the crowd.

"Don't be afraid. Your mother's name is Jin Lai Di, right? Your father was a scholar, but unfortunately he died of illness two years ago. Right? We are really government officials." She waved at her, "We'll take you back soon."

Qiu Tingfang felt more relaxed after hearing her pronounce her mother's name accurately. She looked at her timidly, "Brother officer, are you really here to save us?"

"Ah."

One of the older girls couldn't help but ask boldly, "Well, can you return the indenture to us instead of sending us back?"

Yu Linlang was startled.

Before she could say anything, several older girls covered their faces and started crying. "We will just be sold again if we go back. As long as the family has no money, he will sell us for money."

Chen Buyu sighed, "Sir, are you really going to send them back to the den of tigers and wolves?"

"Return the indentures to them." Yu Linlang pondered for a moment and said, "How about taking you back to the government office to register first? After the registration is completed, if you want to go home, the government office will send someone to take you back. If you don't want to... think of other ways."

"Thank you, sir."

"Thank you, sir!" A group of miserable little girls quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

Yu Linlang hurriedly pulled a few people up, "Alright, alright, everyone get up, Changqing, take them to the car first."

"I'm afraid one car won't be able to fit so many people..." Chang Qing looked around with an embarrassed expression.

Several older girls stood up and said, "It's okay, sir. We can all walk and run. We just need to follow the car!"

"It's okay. Changzhi and the others will drive over to pick us up later. The rest just need to wait a little." Mu Zhao said in a low voice.

Yu Linlang smiled at him, "Your Highness is really thoughtful."

Chen Buyu followed closely behind Yu Linlang and asked, "Sir, how do you know that Jin Lai Di's daughter was sold to the Jin Hua gambling house by Jin Lai Fu?"

"Isn't it written in the information?"

"Is there?" Chen Buyu racked his brains for a long time, his brows furrowed.

Yu Linlang was speechless. "It's not written in the file. According to the neighbors, Jin Laifu once stole her eldest sister's house deed to pay off a debt. Her eldest sister's husband passed away, and she only has one daughter, Qiu Tingfang, who is nine years old this year and can read and write."

"His eldest sister Jin Lai Di's husband's family had no one left, so Jin Lai Fu dared to steal the real estate deeds to pay off his debts. So, you say, given the mentality of a gambler, if he loses too much, will he just steal his niece away to pay off his debts?"

Chen Buyu opened his eyes wide, thought about it for a moment, and nodded vigorously, "Yes, I was the one who found out the news. It was said that Qiu Tingfang went missing more than half a month ago and has not been found yet."

He almost wanted to hit his head, "Why can't I make the connection?"

"I remember Jin Laifu's elder sister praised him for being an honest man who had no bad habits." Chen Buyu sighed, "He really knows how to lie with his eyes open."

"Sir, shall we look for Jin Lai Di now?"
