The onlookers had already called the police, and it would definitely be quite some time before the police arrived. Yu Zhe decided to take action first, or at least go and observe, just in case something uncontrollable happened.

So Yu Zhe watched the truck's constantly moving path on the signal receiver, hailed a taxi, and followed it.

As for whether it's dangerous or not?

Hehe, who cares?

Yu Zhe could have waited for the police to arrive before taking action together.

but!

He thought it was very challenging and interesting to rescue people like this, just like a scene from a spy movie or video game!

This "walk" turned out to be more interesting than I had imagined.

......................

So, with a playful attitude, Yu Zhe stopped the taxi where the truck was no longer moving.

Xiao Yuzhe jumped out of the taxi, and with his short legs, swaggered towards the location.

After walking a few steps, I found this place. It was like an abandoned factory, covering a large area, but it was very desolate. Inside a large iron gate, there were piles of discarded building materials and waste tires.

Looking up, Yu Zhe could see the words "Construction Company" on the main entrance, a sign indicating his interest in business.

He had long known that Fenghai City Construction Company had moved to a new location a long time ago, and this should be the company's old site.

In short, it seems that no company has been found to take over this place, so it has been abandoned for a long time.

The large iron gate was locked, but it was the kind of iron gate with a gap in the middle.

Yu Zhe turned his body to the side, first stepping one leg and one arm through the iron gate, and then easily carried his whole body inside.

Wow, that's a privilege for kids!

After entering, Yu Zhe was a little excited. Next, he could act according to the situation. If he could save people, he would; if not, he would wait for support from the police and his family. In short, he just needed to be steady and that would be the end of it.

He explored the desolate area along the corner of the wall, and the further he went, the more dusty the air seemed to become.

The ground was already covered in dirt; this dust was kicked up by that truck when it passed by. The shorter the time, the more dust there would be.

The locator can only show the approximate location, so Yu Zhe still needs to find the exact location himself.

Fortunately, the place wasn't too big, and Yu Zhe eventually found the truck in front of the abandoned warehouse.

Yu Zhe carefully walked around to the wall next to the truck. There was no one in the truck, and the cargo bed was open. It was obvious that the people had already gotten off the truck with their sacks.

The warehouse door was broken, and Yu Zhe only needed to leap lightly to squeeze through the large hole in the door.

So this is a privilege reserved for children!

Of course, he checked at the door and confirmed that he wouldn't encounter anyone after entering.

Yu Zhe's movements were fluid and graceful; he did a forward roll and slipped right into the doorway.

Then quickly look left and right, listen to the sound to pinpoint the location. It is obvious that the people are concentrated in the corner inside the warehouse, which is safe for the time being, but staying at the door will eventually lead to being discovered.

Yu Zhe's athletic ability is no joke. He stepped on the shelf and leaped onto a large shelf in front of the door in no time.

Then he pulled a large empty box from the side and held it in front of him, because he was small and the box could completely cover him.

The action made very little noise, but it still caught the attention of someone in the warehouse.

The man, wearing a blue jacket, ran straight to the door and yelled, "Who goes there!"

Then... he didn't see anyone.

"Strange... I definitely heard a noise just now."

Yu Zhe held his breath on the shelf, quickly observing his surroundings.

The reason for choosing this location, besides its seclusion, is its elevated position, which offers a panoramic view of the entire area.

Besides the person below, there are six other people in the warehouse, um... not counting the two black burlap sacks.

Moreover, these six people were clearly from two different groups, as they were standing facing each other.

The leader of the group with the black sacks was a man with a thick beard and a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He turned around at the sound and couldn't help but laugh, "You idiot, I think you're really stupid. You're looking for someone in a place where you can't even see a ghost?"

One of his henchmen chimed in, "That's right. You're always so easily startled. You're not very capable, and you're so cowardly. How come anyone dares to come here?"

The last person, though also mocking him, offered some insightful analysis: "It's probably just a rat. In this shabby place, there's hardly any noise. And look at that door, who else but us could open it? That hole, only a child could squeeze through. You're really something, you idiot. Are you afraid a child will come to rescue him, or do you suspect someone has practiced bone-shrinking techniques?"

Then the warehouse erupted in laughter; it seemed they were already used to making fun of this "fool".

"Er Lengzi" wandered around downstairs for a while, and after seeing that there was no one outside the door, he shook his head helplessly and went back.

Yu Zhe smiled. Your disdain for that "fool" has really done you a great favor.

So Yu Zhe continued to observe the conversation between the two groups.

The two men opposite them, both with cigarettes dangling from their lips, said in a disdainful tone, "You brought the people? Just these two sacks?"

The bearded man didn't rush to open the sack, but instead asked, "Did you bring the money?"

"Tch, that's why you people are so boring."

The man in the suit took a box from the person next to him and handed it forward: "It's all here. Cash on delivery, no problem, right?"

He even opened the box and checked it out for the bearded man.

The bearded man looked at the cash inside before saying with relief, "No problem, no problem!"

He then quickly dragged the sack over here and untied the rope: "Here he is. I was afraid he would run away, so I knocked him unconscious. Don't worry, he's fine."

After the sack was untied, Yu Zhe's eyes widened, because there were indeed two people inside, who looked to be about the same age as him. This was the first time he had ever seen a kidnapping scene! Yu Zhe was actually quite excited.

28. How could you not wake up?

"Are they twins?"

The man in the suit glanced at the two little girls in the sack. He could barely tell they were girls from their medium-length hair. Both children were covered in dirt and their features were not fully visible, but they were roughly similar, like twins.

The bearded man quickly added, "That's right! This is a big haul. Those two little guys tried to run away, but they fell and got all dirty. Don't worry, when we catch people, we don't just grab the ugly ones. They're all beauties, and I guarantee you'll get a good price for them."

The man in the suit nodded before handing over the box containing the money with a sense of relief.

Hiding on the shelf, Yu Zhe had a basic idea of ​​the identities of the two groups of people.

Beard

The pedestrian was the human trafficker in charge of the operation, and the man in the suit was probably selling the kidnapped child to who-knows-where.

That's true. The man in the suit usually takes the kidnapped children from the bearded man and then sells them to distant cities where some families are willing to pay a high price for the children.

The adoption system at the time was not perfect. Some families who did not have children of their own and could not adopt children had such crooked ideas. They bought the children from men in suits when the children were still young.

This is a completely illegal act.

Yu Zhe was still waiting for an opportunity to act.

The bearded man, holding the money, instructed his men to count it before turning to the man in the suit and saying with a smile, "Then I'll be leaving now. You should take these two and get out of here too. It wasn't easy for us to find this hideout. If we get caught by the police, finding a new place will be a real hassle."

"Wait a minute," the man in the suit called out to him. "We can't stay here. I'll choose a different place next time."

"Huh? What do you mean, you idiot? You're choosing the location?"

The bearded man's gaze sharpened upon hearing this, staring intently at the man in the suit: "What are you up to, you bastard?"

That's how it is in their line of work; there's a lot of distrust between them.

The location of the warehouse was chosen by the bearded man, as he was familiar with the terrain and could handle any unexpected situations.

But the man in the suit suddenly said he wanted to change the handover location, which made him suspect that this guy might be trying to collude with the police.

The man in the suit just shrugged helplessly and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be so hostile. We've cooperated so many times already, haven't we? I'm just offering a suggestion out of kindness. Whether you agree or not is up to you."

“This old construction company is actually very closed off, and there’s only one way in and out. If the police come looking for us, we won’t have a chance to run away. Besides, the main problem is that we’ve been here so many times, so it’s inevitable that we’ll leave some clues.”

"Hahahaha!" The bearded man and his men laughed loudly, "As if you're the only one who knows everything. There's only one road? That's just what you see."

"What I saw? What do you mean?"

The bearded man pointed to the door with a boastful air: "My brothers and I have already scouted this place. We've opened up a hidden escape route. Don't get too cocky."

The man in the suit narrowed his eyes, looking unconvinced.

Since the bearded man didn't trust him, he naturally didn't trust the bearded man either.

There was nothing he could do. The bearded man gave a thumbs-up and pointed to the door: "Don't believe me? No problem, I'll take you to see."

Besides, he originally wanted to show off his retreat route design.

"Okay, I'll take a look. If it's not suitable, we'll have to find another place. To be honest, it's not safe here."

"Let's finish reading it first, it's too long-winded."

As he spoke, he led the man in the suit ahead, not forgetting to turn back and give instructions to his underling.

"Keep an eye on those two kids. If they get away, you know what will happen."

The underlings nodded like they were pounding garlic. Despite their usual brotherly relationship, this bearded man treated them like dogs.

However, since they could make money by following him, they had no objections.

However, having no opinions does not mean that one will do their best.

Sure enough, as soon as the bearded man left, their demeanor immediately became relaxed and sloppy.

"What did the boss just say? Don't let them get away? Haha, let them get away my ass. If we let them get away, they'd really think we're all idiots."

"Exactly. He's always so arrogant and domineering, but he dumps all this mess on us. Just now, when they were arresting people, he was sitting in the car like a big shot."

"Come on, come on, let's play cards! You two, don't just stand there, come over here too!"

One of the younger men even called over the two men who had come with the man in the suit, and they ended up playing cards together.

Only the cautious younger brother added, "Isn't this inappropriate...? Boss said to keep an eye on it."

"You really acted like a dog after being told to be one!" The person who had just mocked him for being a coward retorted.

There was no other way; who would want to be criticized every day? So the cautious younger brother had no choice but to move over to their side and sit in a circle not far from the black sack, playing cards.

And that was it, Yu Zhe knew.

The opportunity is here.

We can't wait for them to leave; we have to rescue them as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the bearded man and the man in the suit return, they'll probably take the two children and leave this place.
