Siheyuan Shangpeng

After hearing Shang Qi's words, Wu Li immediately summoned people to prepare for a violent attack. He also casually asked Shang Qi whether he would participate in the operation, but Shang Qi refused.

Shang Qi thought to himself, "You must be joking. Most of the JCs nowadays are retired soldiers. If I go there now, wouldn't I be slapping them in the face? I'd better stay out. I've already made some contributions, so I shouldn't show off."

When Wu Li saw that Shang Qi had no intention of attacking, he nodded and began to direct his men to launch an attack.

Three of the team's scouts climbed over the wall to see if they could directly control the human traffickers. The remaining people left three at the front door, two at the back door, and two each outside the left and right walls.

Shang Qi was naturally watching the group of people at the edge of the ruins outside. He saw Wu Li wave his hand, and the three people who had lurked inside began to use mirrors to stick out of the wall to observe the situation in the courtyard. Then two of them climbed over the wall from the backyard, and one climbed over the wall from the side. The rest of them waited outside. After about ten minutes, the gate was opened, and one of the lurking people shouted from inside: "You can come in, the people inside are under control!"

After hearing this, Wu Li led the people outside the yard to enter the yard. At this moment, Shang Qi found a man and a woman holding a child and coming to the edge of the ruins. They were about to walk towards the traffickers' yard. When they saw Shang Peng and the other man, they were obviously stunned. Then they found the people outside the yard and turned around and wanted to run. Shang Qi immediately stepped forward and kicked the man away, then grabbed the woman's arm holding the child with one hand. With a force, the woman let go of the child in pain. Shang Qi flew forward and hugged the child, ran two steps, and left the woman's attack range. With the other hand, he held the pistol on his waist and pointed it at the man who fell to the ground. The man also reacted at this time. He had just sat up from the ground and his hand had already touched his waist. He looked up and saw the black muzzle of the gun. He immediately froze in place, not daring to move. The woman also reacted at this time and was about to run away when she heard Shang Qi say, "Don't move, I can just shoot you two."

At this time, Wu Li and others also reacted and hurriedly ran to Shang Qi. Two JCs were about to step forward to control the couple, but Shang Qi said, "Be careful, the man is armed." The remaining JC immediately took out a pistol and pointed it at the man. The JC who wanted to control the man also carefully handcuffed the man, and then searched him. They really found a pistol on the man's waist and a dagger on his calf. Everyone was shocked when they saw the pistol. It would be bad if they rushed forward rashly and were counterattacked, because bullets don't have eyes.

Several people brought the two people outside into the yard and found that three of the five adults in the yard were knocked unconscious and two were controlled.

They quickly searched the hut again and finally found the entrance to the cellar under the rice jar in the kitchen. They tried it out first and found no movement inside, so they sent two JCs down. After a while, one of them came up and reported that there were more than a dozen children inside, all unconscious.

Wu Li quickly sent two more people down to take the children to the beds in the room upstairs. After several people worked for a long time, they finally carried all the children to the beds in the room. During the process of moving them, they found that one of the little boys had stopped breathing.

After hearing this, Wu Li's eyes turned red and he beat up several human traffickers. After a while, Shang Qi pulled Wu Li away and comforted them for a while. The people who came didn't have any objections. Instead, two people with hot tempers followed Wu Li and beat up the human traffickers. The three of them knew their limits and didn't beat them to death, but they hit them in places that were unbearable, and several human traffickers screamed in pain.

At this moment, the person on guard outside suddenly sent a signal that someone else was coming towards the yard.

Wu Li immediately ordered someone to cover the trafficker's mouth, and then took two people to ambush behind the gate. The moment the trafficker pushed open the door, he subdued him and then began to interrogate him.

Through interrogation, it was found that there were a total of ten people in the human trafficker gang. The people who kidnapped the children were divided into four groups. There was always one person stationed in the yard to guard the children who might wake up, and another leader was out on inspection and did not often come to the yard.

Today and tomorrow will be their last days of action. They will retreat tomorrow night, and someone will come and take the children away and sell them to different places. The boss has already contacted the buyers and is waiting to deliver the goods tomorrow night. Then they will go to other places to continue committing crimes.

When Wu Li heard this, he immediately asked someone to contact the leader. At this time, the person who was sent to contact a car to take the child to the hospital came back, and also brought the leader of the Municipal Bureau. After hearing about the situation, the leader ordered people to take the child to the hospital and also ordered people to take the human trafficker away and put him under custody. He and Wu Li stayed in the yard together, waiting for the boss to come back, and try to catch the boss directly and force him to reveal the buyer behind the scenes.

Seeing that there was nothing for Shang Qi to do, he returned to the city with the car that was taking the children to the hospital. When he arrived at the hospital, he saw the parents who had received the notice to look for their lost children. They were holding their children and crying with excitement. Turning around, he saw a couple holding their dead child and crying painfully. That was the only child who died among more than a dozen children. The air in the cellar did not have as much oxygen as the air outside. The children were also unconscious, and the traffickers did not notice that one of the children was suffocated to death with his face down. Shaking his head, Shang Qi felt helpless.

He declined Comrade JC's invitation to dinner and walked towards the courtyard. He left the rest of the matters to his junior uncle Wu Li and the others, and he could retire after completing his mission.

It was almost dark when Shang Qi returned to the courtyard. The third uncle at the door saw Shang Qi coming back and was about to greet him enthusiastically, but he discovered that Shang Qi's hands were empty, and his enthusiasm diminished a little.

Shang Qi was still thinking about the sad cries of the dead child's parents, so he said hello to the third uncle and walked towards his home.

When he walked into the house, he found Shang's father, Shang Xue and Shang Peng waiting for him inside. Shang's mother was at He Daqing's house with her children. Shang Qi introduced what happened to them. When they heard that a child had died, they felt sad. It was Shang's father who spoke up, "Okay, you two have done your best. If it weren't for you kids, they wouldn't be able to see their parents in the future. By then, more than one child would have died. So pack up and get ready to go to Chef He's house for dinner. Don't let anyone see."

After they calmed down, they went to He Daqing's house for dinner. At the dinner table, He Daqing said that they would go to Tian Xiaocao's parents' home to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, and He Yuzhu would go to his master's home to pay New Year's greetings. Yu Shui would have to trouble Shang's mother to take care of her. Shang's mother readily agreed and said that Yu Shui would play with Xiaoxue tomorrow.
