Chapter 138 Lin Guiying's Fury
He closed his eyes and steeled his resolve, "Aunt Lin, they've had Xiao Xi pretend to be a beggar to lure human traffickers..."
Didn't wait to finish.
boom!
Lin Guiying slammed down the bowl, instantly enraged. "Using my granddaughter as bait? What are you police officers doing? My precious daughter is always pampered at home, and you're pushing her towards human traffickers?"
"Why don't you use yourselves as bait? Why don't you use your own children as bait! Do you think I'm an old woman who's easy to bully?..."
Lin Guiying cursed and swore, and almost hit someone.
Yan Feng knew this was the situation, which is why he didn't dare to speak. This time, Danyang's actions were indeed unethical.
Although they often asked the young girl for help, it was always behind the scenes and there was no danger involved.
If you directly use other people's children to lure human traffickers, which parent wouldn't go crazy?
Especially Lin Xi, she is the apple of the Lin family's eye.
Zhao Yang huddled in the corner like a quail. "Auntie! It has nothing to do with us. We don't want Xiaoxi to go either. We're just passing on this message. Whether Xiaoxi goes or not is entirely up to her!"
Lin Guiying slammed her hand on the table. "No way! Our Xiaoxi has no obligation to do this. No matter how capable she is, she's still a child. There are so many police officers; how can you ask a nine-year-old to help?"
"Which scoundrel came up with this idea? Has he lost his mind? Daring to lay a finger on my granddaughter! I'm going to report him! Does he think I'm some old woman who doesn't know the law? This is completely illegal! A police officer, treating the safety of the people like a joke!..."
Lin Guiying became more and more agitated as she spoke. Ever since the last fire, she had kept a close watch on Lin Xi, not wanting the child to be involved in any dangerous incidents again.
She's still shaken by the fact that her granddaughter was in a coma for a whole week last time. What good did it do to save her? She almost got herself killed.
She wasn't that selfless; she was just a short-sighted and selfish old woman who thought no one's life was more important than her granddaughter's!
Seeing Lin Guiying's resistance, Yan Feng and the other two dared not say another word.
Lin Xi didn't mind too much. Danyang must be in a desperate situation and had no other choice but to come up with this idea.
However, Grandma is currently emotional, so she doesn't dare to agree and needs to think of a suitable way to persuade her.
"Grandma, don't be angry. Brother Yan Feng and the others were just passing on a message. Look how scared they are."
Zhao Yang nodded repeatedly. He would rather face vicious criminals than face the furious Aunt Lin.
This feeling is like when your elders get angry, and you, as a junior, can only listen silently and dare not argue back.
Yan Feng and Wu Zheng were the same; the two brigade leaders had seen all sorts of situations and encountered all sorts of unreasonable old ladies.
If someone else were to insult the police, they would have already given them a cold look.
But Lin Guiying was different; even if Lin Guiying attacked, Lin Guiying would just take the hits.
Because they genuinely respected this simple, kind, and stubborn old lady.
Despite their unfriendly demeanor whenever they visit, they always prepare a large meal and give them pickled vegetables before they leave, reminding them to eat on time.
The brothers were either disabled or injured, but the Lin family didn't mind and kindly took them in. They never shortchanged them on wages, and now they are living a prosperous life.
They remember all these good things.
Besides, their granddaughter has made such great contributions to the police station; where else can you find such a wonderful family?
It's normal for the old lady to swear this time; we're just worried she might get sick from getting so angry.
That's just how Lin Guiying is. After venting her anger, she put on a stern face and started serving the dishes again.
Yan Feng and the others knew from the number of bowls and chopsticks that they had brought their own portions, so they quickly stood up to help.
At the dinner table, Lin Xi kept changing the subject to make her grandmother happy, and Zhao Yang cooperated by acting silly and funny, which finally made Lin Guiying forget about the matter and have a good laugh.
After the meal, Lin Xi escorted Yan Feng and the others to the door, intending to ask about the case. "Brother Yan Feng, um..." Before she could finish speaking, Lin Guiying immediately came over, "Ahem, you've all finished eating, why aren't you leaving? What are you standing there for?"
Doesn't she know her granddaughter's personality? She's definitely thinking of secretly agreeing. If she can't keep an eye on her this time, she'll make sure her name is reversed!
Lin Xi gave Yan Feng a helpless look and silently stepped back.
She didn't want to upset or worry her grandmother, but she couldn't let go of the matter of human traffickers. It was a difficult situation!
Danyang City.
Ma Zhaoqian looked worried, his eyes were bloodshot, and policewoman Yan Lingling was no longer as radiant as before, her hair was a mess and her face was ashen.
They haven't had a good night's sleep in a long time.
Over the past year, there have been numerous cases of children going missing near train stations.
They deployed a large number of plainclothes police officers inside and outside the station, and arrested many human traffickers, but they did not obtain any important information.
These people drug the children, place them in different locations according to the instructions in the text messages, and then do nothing; someone will send them money on their own.
The remittance account was found to be from overseas, but the phone number could not be traced back to its origin. When the number was called, it was a disconnected number, and a different phone number was used for each contact.
Initially, their methods were egregious and obvious, involving robbery, threats, beatings, and other violent means, prompting the police to increase their manpower.
Later, using various excuses, they tricked the children into getting on cars, trains, and other means of transportation and quickly took them away from the scene. The police began to focus their inspections on various vehicles.
However, the devil is always one step ahead of the saint.
Their methods have also evolved, with them posing as medical personnel and administering anesthetic drugs under the guise of physical examinations. The police have begun to intensify their public awareness campaigns, advising people to seek treatment at official medical facilities near train stations if needed.
Disguised as passengers, the children were drugged and then hidden inside large luggage or cardboard boxes before being moved by their parents. Police began to focus their inspections on the luggage.
Okay, since it's easy for one person to get caught, they started to operate in groups. Some people were responsible for finding targets and luring children, some people created chaos to attract the parents' attention, and others were responsible for receiving and transferring them.
The police responded to each move with a countermeasure...
In short, throughout the year, they constantly outwitted and outmaneuvered human traffickers.
However, recently, the child abduction rate has surged, but this time, they found no trace of the traffickers.
How do children disappear from their parents' lives? How do human traffickers move them?
Every day, all the police officers spent their time at the train station, disguised as staff, passengers, vendors, and even beggars, patrolling and keeping watch everywhere.
Of course, a considerable number of police officers were deployed in public, which at least served as a deterrent.
However, it didn't have much effect. Those human traffickers were like flies that could seep into every nook and cranny, and they were invisible flies at that. You couldn't find any trace of them, which made you both hate and disgust.
Ma Zhaoqian knew that catching these flies wouldn't solve the fundamental problem; only by cleaning up the pile of excrement that provided nutrients for the flies could Danyang be restored to peace and tranquility.
That's why they resorted to this desperate measure: having a child help them find the gang and their superior's hideout.
His phone rang, and when he saw the caller ID, a glimmer of hope ignited in his eyes.
