The Case of Love

Chapter 65 Start taking action

The little girl said with tears in her eyes, "I don't know either. Grandma is still lying at home. The doctor just said that it would cost money, but I don't know how much it would cost."

Su Xiaohan felt distressed when she heard the little girl say this. A little girl with a sick grandmother and no one else around her, how much pressure and pain must she have to endure!
"Sister, can you go to my house and see my grandma?" The little girl suddenly stopped crying and looked up at Su Xiaohan.

"Where is your home, little sister?" Su Xiaohan asked.

The little girl pointed to the alley not far away and said, "Sister, my home is there!"

Su Xiaohan looked towards the intersection and felt suspicious. Although this area was prosperous, the alley was deep and seemed to be filled with residential houses, with no businesses. Although the little girl was pitiful, she had to be more careful in such a situation. There were more than one news reports on the Internet about scammers using the elderly and children to commit fraud. After thinking about it, she decided to wait until her cousin came back.

While she was looking around, the little girl had stood up from the ground, took her hand and said, "Sister, let's go to my house now. My house is nearby and we can get there in a few minutes. Sister, please, save my grandma." The little girl pleaded in tears.

Although the girl was young, she was quite strong. Su Xiaohan was caught off guard and staggered when she pulled her.

At this time, Su Xiaohan's cell phone rang. It was her cousin calling, so she quickly picked up the phone.

"Xiao Han, I bought the cake, where are you?" Li Yunfei was a little anxious when he didn't see his cousin after buying the cake.

Su Xiaohan explained the situation to him and asked him to wait for her at the door of the cake shop. Li Yunfei was worried and hurriedly followed the direction she said.

"Xiao Han!" He called her loudly and ran towards them.

Su Xiaohan subconsciously let go of the little girl's hand and walked towards her cousin.

Li Yunfei was a little out of breath due to his anxiety. He held up the cake box and said, "There are quite a lot of people queuing up, but the speed is still fast. I'm lucky, this is the last piece! Others will have to wait a little longer."

Su Xiaohan took the cake box and wanted to taste it right away.

"Didn't you just say you were with a little girl?" Li Yunfei asked.

Su Xiaohan turned her head following his puzzled gaze, but the little girl was no longer visible in the narrow alley.

"Let's go, Xiaohan! What little sister? She's a liar. She left as soon as I arrived. Most likely she saw you alone and wanted to cheat you of your money!" Li Yunfei was very vigilant.

Su Xiaohan looked around but didn't see the little girl. She had no choice but to leave with her cousin. Li Zhisong waited for a whole day but didn't receive a call from Shan Ge. He was a little anxious. It wasn't until noon the next day that Shan Ge finally called and Li Zhisong arranged a time and place for him to meet.

At the appointed time, Zhou Yifeng and his men ambushed nearby and caught Li Zhisong and Shan Ge when they were "inspecting the goods".

After Shan Ge was arrested, he confessed his guilt in a good manner. He confessed that his full name was Liu Junshan and that he was responsible for finding buyers and asking for requirements in the organization, but was not responsible for carrying out the trafficking.

After questioning, Zhou Yifeng discovered that the trafficking organization Liu Junshan belonged to had a fairly complete "industrial chain", which involved looking for buyers, inquiring about requirements, scouting for candidates, and then carrying out fraud and trafficking. The entire criminal process was like an assembly line.

In order to redeem himself and get a chance to reduce his sentence, Liu Junshan confessed that the person who was responsible for "delivering" him was also a worker in the pickle factory, Guo Baoquan. He was handsome, and sometimes he would deceive girls by talking about love and abduct them. At present, he still had a few women who had not been taken, and they were all locked up in the basement of an empty factory building at the west end of the village. The boss of their gang was Sun Xiaofei, also known as "Brother Fei", and he was the director of the pickle factory.

Back in the office, Zhou Yifeng frowned, felt angry, and had a dull headache. The crime of trafficking in women and children is an ugly phenomenon left over from feudal society. After the founding of New China, it was once banned. He did not expect that criminals would be so rampant in a village deep in the mountains.

Su Xiaohan saw that he looked unhappy, so she stood up and made him a cup of tea. In the curling hot air, Zhou Yifeng gently rubbed his temples and said, "Xiaohan, this is not the first time I have encountered this situation. This village is deep in the mountains. Due to the limitations of natural conditions, the village is very backward, and many men cannot find a partner after adulthood. Many older men or men with physical defects choose to spend money to buy women abducted by human traffickers as wives to carry on the family line and continue the incense."

"What era is this? We still need to pass on the family line!" Su Xiaohan said excitedly.

"The villagers are ignorant and have a weak legal awareness. They think women and children can be bought and sold like commodities, which allows human traffickers to succeed repeatedly. Although some buyers know that buying a wife is illegal, they do not realize the seriousness of the problem and think it is understandable for a bachelor to buy a wife." Zhou Yifeng's tone was filled with pain and helplessness.

He had heard from his master that for many years, everyone had been holding back on such crimes. When they handled such cases, they were often misunderstood, abused, and even attacked. Sometimes they could only watch helplessly as the women they had rescued were kidnapped by a group of people who were ignorant of the law. That feeling was simply indescribable. He also had personal experience of this. Six years ago, he followed his master and went deep into the village three times to rescue a female college student who was trafficked to the village before he brought her out.

Now, he encountered another case of trafficking in women and children. He was excited and motivated. He was ready to roll up his sleeves and do his best to bring this criminal gang to justice.

The personal experience six years ago ignited the anger in his heart again. He slammed the table and stood up. He looked at the police badge hanging on the opposite wall and gave the order to arrest Fei Ge and Guo Baoquan and rescue the abducted woman.

Through Liu Junshan's confession, Zhou Yifeng learned that this Fei Ge had been doing business in this village and surrounding villages for many years and had complex relationships. From certain leaders in the county to ordinary people on the street, everyone protected and defended him. It would be quite difficult to successfully arrest him and bring him to justice.

To be on the safe side, Zhou Yifeng strengthened the police force of the action team. He, Su Xiaohan, Li Zhisong and 20 police officers led by him arrested Fei Ge and his helpers with the cooperation of the local police station. After the arrest, they immediately returned to the public security bureau. Ma Nan and Zhu Xiaofeng led 20 police officers to enter the village at the same time to rescue the trafficked women.

He asked all personnel to act quickly, decisively, avoid conflicts, and carry out operations while ensuring their own personal safety and the personal safety of the abducted women.

At 3 pm, Zhou Yifeng and his team arrested Guo Baoquan at the pickle factory. Guo Baoquan confessed that he had abducted and sold Zhang Hong under the alias Guo Peng.

When they arrived at the factory director's office, Sun Xiaofei was sitting in the office, seemingly waiting for the arrival of the action team. He was wearing a gray suit, and looked calm and composed.
