To the North! Gu Zi and the police officer’s eyes lit up as they finally stumbled upon a crucial clue.

The officer immediately relayed this information. Upon receiving it, Captain He led his team out of the city, heading north. The military also set up checkpoints in the north, thoroughly inspecting all passing vehicles. As long as the traffickers hadn’t left the province, there was still hope.

News soon arrived from Pingshui Town.

Jin Long had discovered some peculiar traces of river sand along the route in Pingshui Town, as if someone had deliberately left them. Jin Long had already followed these traces and had notified the men at the local pig farm to cease their work for the day and arm themselves.

Gu Zi and the parents of the other two children were overjoyed. They were certain these traces were left by their children. Now, there was hope!

As darkness fell, Gu Zi, like Grandma Gao and the others, remained at the police station, unable to ease their minds enough to return home. She had to wait here.

Yang Zhen, seeing her like this, couldn’t bear to leave her alone and stayed with her at the station.

Yang Zhen comforted Gu Zi, “I’ve already made a call. Guan Ling has agreed to help. He’s the commander of the North Central Military Region. With his help, we can quickly set up checkpoints in several important cities in the north. Whether or not they’ve left the province, the traffickers won’t be able to escape.”

Meanwhile, Zhou Hua and her group’s van was stalled upon entering a village.

A group of tall men armed with hoes and shovels approached, intending to surround the unfamiliar vehicle.

Brother Gua was at his wit’s end. Was this a village? If he didn’t know any better, he’d think it was a bandit’s den. Since when did village security become so tight?

He viciously threatened the three children in the back, “If we really have to get out of the car, you’ll say you’re our children. You’re traveling with your parents to study abroad. If you don’t follow this story, we’ll sell you three little things off in this broken village. The boys will serve a legless old man, and the girl will become a child bride for these poor people!”

Upon hearing this, the three children huddled together in fear. Jiang Nuan had also woken up by now. In reality, she had run out of mud and sand. She couldn’t maintain her previous position any longer and had to wake up. She could only hope that the traces she had left behind would be discovered. She had wanted to cry for a long time, but she couldn’t yet.

However, Gao Ming was genuinely scared, while Jiang Nuan saw a glimmer of hope. She looked at Su Li, “Isn’t this your hometown?”

Su Li nodded in secret agreement, a sense of triumph swelling within him. Zhou Hua was such a fool, not realizing that this country boy was originally from Daqing Village. Now, they had unwittingly brought him back to his hometown. What a trio of buffoons!

All he needed to do now was wait for them to open the car door. Then, he would call out to the uncles outside. However, he wondered why the uncles from the pig farm, who usually slaughtered pigs, were now armed and blocking the road.

The pig farm in Daqing must be deserted now. In a while, he planned to take Gao Ming to see the piglets, and Jiang Nuan as well.

In less than a minute, the men outside had surrounded the vehicle, demanding the occupants to step out for a routine check.

Brother Gua, left with no choice, had to comply. After all, he had encountered such villages before. Even if the three children were exposed, he wasn’t afraid. A few hundred yuan would be enough to dismiss these unsophisticated villagers.

However, what he didn’t expect was that as soon as he opened the car door and stepped out, the timid boy who had been cowering suddenly shouted, “Uncle Liu, Uncle Li, I’m Su Li! Catch them, they’re human traffickers!”

The faces of Zhou Hua and his wife turned pale. They hurriedly tried to silence Su Li, but before they could even leave their seats, they were grabbed by the collar.

Out of the corner of their eyes, they saw Brother Gua being subdued by two burly men. Immediately after, they were dragged out of the car, the furious shouts of the towering men ringing in their ears.

“Damn human traffickers, daring to kidnap the young master of our Daqing pig farm. You’re really asking for trouble. Everyone, beat them up, just don’t kill them!”

Seven or eight men rushed forward, knocking the three to the ground. A flurry of punches and kicks later, the trio were wailing like slaughtered pigs, rolling on the ground as the beating continued.

Meanwhile, a few other men hurriedly opened the rear of the vehicle, rescuing Su Li and the others.

Su Li was extremely pleased. He jumped out of the car, pulling Gao Ming and Jiang Nuan with him.

Seeing the relaxed expressions on the other two, Gao Ming was confused. These men were terrifying. Had they just escaped from the tiger’s den only to enter the wolf’s lair? It was enough to send shivers down his spine!

Seeing Gao Ming’s fear, Su Li quickly explained, “Don’t be scared, Gao Ming. This is my hometown. I used to live here. That’s my father’s pig farm up ahead. There are lots of cute little pigs inside.”

Jiang Nuan patted Gao Ming’s head, joining in the reassurance, “That’s right. I’ve been here before. This is Su Li’s hometown. We’re safe now!”
