Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

Chapter 6: Desolate Mountains and Harsh Waters!

Lijia Village.

This is a backward village, a place that can even be described as "poor and desolate".

The entire village is surrounded by deserted areas for several kilometers, with only barren mountains.

Every human trafficking case is inextricably linked to such places, where the local people are generally fierce and difficult to govern, with low moral standards and extremely ignorant minds!

As for how ignorant...

"Everyone get ready, we need to leave here as soon as possible!"

Li Xiang's expression was unusually solemn. He took a deep breath, stood up inside the minibus, and then suddenly swung his right hand.

"Sizzle!"

A police baton instantly extended and was tightly gripped in his hand.

Rescuing abducted persons is not as simple as just walking over and saying a few words!

Everyone held their breath, watching the outside world intently as the minibus gradually approached the village along the rugged mountain road.

Approaching the village entrance.

Several people working in the fields straightened up immediately upon seeing the "iron cart," their eyes filled with doubt.

Xu De looked at both sides.

Most of the houses in Lijia Village are mud houses, and there isn't a single cement road. At first glance, it gives the impression that this place was built in the 1970s or 80s.

Or rather, it's even more backward!

The victim, Wang Mei, was sold to this place.

"Squeak!"

In a daze, the minibus stopped at the gate of an inconspicuous courtyard. The courtyard was surrounded by mud walls, and inside were mud-brick houses.

Upon seeing this, Li Xiang immediately took action.

"get off!"

After speaking...

The other six policemen also pulled out their batons and swung them away with a "whoosh".

They immediately got off the car in unison.

Li Xiang looked at the tightly closed wooden door in front of him and, without the slightest hesitation, rammed into it.

"Bang!!!"

The wooden door was suddenly kicked open, revealing the entire courtyard.

The woodshed is on the left, the kitchen is on the right, and the main hall is directly opposite the courtyard gate.

Without hesitation, Li Xiang quickly walked inside.

"Wang Mei is in the woodshed. Once you find her, get out of there quickly!"

"Da da da..."

The group moved quickly, and without saying a word, they led Wang Qiang and Xu De directly to the woodshed.

During this period, the homeowner was not even informed... or rather, there was no need to inform them.

The noise from banging on the door had already alerted the homeowner!

"Squeak~"

The simple door to the main room was pushed open, and a man and a woman, two elderly people with hunched backs and thin figures, dressed in tattered clothes and looking like withered trees, came out.

The other party happened to run into the police who were preparing to smash and demolish the woodshed.

The two elderly people were stunned the moment they met. After they came to their senses, they immediately shouted in a sharp, high-pitched voice.

"ah!!!!"

"What do you want to do!?"

The sound was piercing, and she screamed as she tried to approach.

Li Xiang frowned as he stood in front of the woodshed.

"Xiao Li, Xiao Wang, stop them!!!"

After saying this, the two policemen stopped the two noisy elderly people who wanted to step forward without saying a word. The elderly and frail people were unable to go any further.

But the screams continued unabated.

"They're snatching someone! The police are snatching someone!!!"

"Help! Help! The police are here to snatch my son while he's away!!!"

The two elderly people couldn't stand it, so they sat on the ground and started throwing a tantrum, howling and screaming.

The noise was loud, and I reckon it would soon attract a crowd.

Li Xiang felt nervous. He pushed past the policeman who was picking the lock and looked at the woodshed door, which was secured with an iron bar.

"Stop prying it open!"

As he spoke, his shoulders slumped, and he suddenly exerted force!

"Bang!"

The wooden door trembled, and the hinges on it vibrated.

Li Xiang's shoulders slumped again.

"Bang!"

The door was kicked open in an instant!

This is a woodshed.

Inside, there was food and cooking everywhere, firewood gathered from the ground, and a brick floor with a layer of soil on top of the bricks, which was then compacted.

On the wall facing away from the light, the only window was sealed off by several steel bars.

It was as dull and dark as a prison cell, without a ray of sunlight.

"Hmm..."

Beside the woodpile, in the shadows where it blended into the pile, a figure suddenly shrank back.

The other person subconsciously covered their eyes slightly with their hand.

The door was flung open, and the blinding light formed a square on the ground, like light reflected from a mirror. She, who had not seen the light for a long time, was so blinded that she could not open her eyes!

Xu De noticed her instantly.

The other person's hair was a messy, tangled mess, covered in dust and grass clippings, with dry, split ends, full of grime, and emitting a foul stench.

Her cheekbones were high and prominent, making her eyes appear sunken.

His eyes were just two cloudy holes, his eyelids were swollen and drooping, and his eyes looked dull and numb.

This is......

"Wang Mei!?"

A voice suddenly rang out in the woodshed, but it was impossible to tell who spoke.

Beside the woodpile.

The woman suddenly stirred, fear brewing in her eyes, her body curling and trembling with terror.

Then another voice rang out.

"Xiaomei......."

This time, there was a slight tremor in his voice.

The emaciated Wang Qiang, his lips trembling slightly, stared at Wang Mei in disbelief, barely daring to breathe.

This is her daughter.

A daughter who was abducted and trafficked ten years ago!

The other person is 24 years old this year. Although they haven't seen each other for ten years... even though the other person looks like he's forty, Wang Qiang still recognized him.

"Ugh..."

Wang Qiang suddenly straightened Wang Mei and hugged her tightly, sobbing and choking with grief. His skeletal hands were like steel, binding Wang Mei's body so tightly that they could not be separated even in death!

There was no rape or beating as expected.

The woman was stunned.

She looked at the man in front of her, then at Sun Hong, who was speechless and choking with sobs.

Who is the other party?

Like a madwoman, the woman chained up with iron locks had a look of confusion in her fearful eyes.

She stared at Wang Qiang, at his wrinkled, rough face, and stood frozen in place.

The memories of living in the woodshed for ten years gradually faded from his mind, replaced by a blurry face whose features he could no longer recall.

Her memory gradually became clearer until it matched the face in front of her.

Suddenly, Wang Mei froze on the spot, looking at Wang Qiang, her lips trembling slightly.

She wanted to say something but couldn't, wanted to complain but didn't know where to begin, wanted to break down and cry, but when she opened her mouth, she only felt a wave of gagging.

A myriad of emotions, ultimately...

Her voice rang out.

"Why are you so late...?"

Wang Mei said blankly.

The voice was soft, the emotions were not intense, and there was no crying or complaining.

This caused the hearts of the surrounding police officers to sink, and an indescribable emotion welled up in their chests.

Wang Qiang could no longer hold back his tears and burst into tears, holding the other person tightly in his arms.

"Officer Li, please take him away first."

In a daze, Xu De suddenly spoke, his gaze sweeping over his surroundings, his brows furrowing.

Although he wasn't a policeman, he knew what would happen if he delayed any longer.

Police officer Li Xiang didn't waste any time and spoke directly:

"Walk!"

After speaking...

Wang Qiang, ignoring his snot and tears, picked up Wang Mei and started to walk out.

But when he stood up, he discovered that Wang Mei's ankle was locked with an iron chain, the other end of which was stuck straight into the ground.

Without saying a word, Li Xiang struck the chain stuck in the ground with his baton, making it tremble, and then pulled it out.

The group quickly covered Wang Qiang as he walked away.

Outside the woodshed.

Upon seeing this, the two elderly people who were lying on the ground throwing a tantrum immediately showed anger on their faces and screamed:

"Help! Help! The police are trying to take him away!!!"

"Don't leave! We paid for this place, you're not allowed to leave!"

"I don't want to live anymore, the police robbed me..."

A series of screams echoed, and two young policemen desperately tried to stop them.

Li Xiang felt a chill run down his spine and quickly walked outside.

As they walked, Wang Mei, whom he was holding, suddenly remembered something, her face showing panic. She looked at the policeman and said:

"My child, my child..."

child?

Yes, Wang Mei also has a child!

Li Xiang was taken aback, and subconsciously looked towards the main room, then looked outside again.

He was just about to say something.

Xu De, who had arrived at the door ahead of time, saw a large, dark mass in front of him and immediately spoke with a grim expression:

"The child will be fine!"

"Take Wang Mei away first. We can save as many as we can. If we're even half a minute later, none of them will survive!"

Correct.

The child will be fine!

Li Xiang reacted instantly.

The child belongs to Wang Mei, but also to the buyer. The buyer won't do anything inappropriate to the child; trouble will only happen if Wang Mei stays here!

"Captain Li!" The two policemen behind him were starting to struggle to keep up.

"Walk!"

Without hesitation, Li Xiang decisively allowed the two to rejoin the team.

Immediately.

With Wang Mei protected, the group quickly walked along the dirt road in the village toward the minibus.

Their steps were rapid, their breathing heavy, and they soon arrived near the minibus.

"Sizzle!"

Everyone had just gotten into the car, and Li Xiang intended to drive off immediately, but unfortunately...

The back foot.

A huge, dark crowd surged in from behind, instantly surrounding the minibus.

These are villagers.

The villagers of Lijia Village.

At this moment, led by the two elderly people, countless villagers surrounded the minibus, making it impossible to move!

"Get off! Get off!"

"Go find Erniu quickly and tell him to come back from the fields. Tell him that if he doesn't come back, his wife will be gone!"

"Damn it, get down here! What right do you have to snatch him away?!"

"Are you bullying me?! Hand over the person!!!"

"..."

The villagers of Lijia Village all had anger on their faces, some holding hoes and others gripping sickles, shouting at the people in the car, creating a noisy scene!

In the back seat of the car, Wang Qiang's breathing gradually became heavy, his eyes gradually became bloodshot, and he felt the trembling in his arms, holding on tightly with both hands.

In the driver's seat.

Old Zhang, who was driving, tried to drive away, but unfortunately... the villagers in front of the car wouldn't budge an inch, and the only way to get away was to run them over with the wheels!

"damn it!"

Old Zhang cursed angrily, glancing at the villagers surrounding the police, noticing the hostility in their eyes and the hoes in their hands.

The weapons the other side has are not just for show.

The people in this godforsaken place aren't afraid of the police at all!

Old Zhang's face was grave, his heart sinking to the bottom. He turned to look at Li Xiang and said in a deep voice:

"What do we do!?"
