As time enters late August, the temperature on Koliu Island is getting higher and higher, with no sign of falling back. Even at night, the heat has not subsided by half.
On the highway from Luojia City to Mojiu Manor, a small convoy was speeding.
This small convoy consists of three vehicles. There is a black car in the front, a large van in the middle, and an open-top Hummer off-road vehicle behind it. On the Hummer are several indigenous people with dark skin and fierce faces.
All of them were loaded with guns and ammunition, and even had two grenades hanging on the left and right sides of their chests.
Looking at this posture, no one would doubt that they were escorting a cart of gold.
In fact, for Yi Zi, the people in the van are definitely worth more than a cart of gold. At least if the cart of gold is lost, his life will not be lost; if the four men and four women in the van are lost,
, Grand Imperial Master Mojiu is afraid that he will take his life immediately.
It was precisely because these four men and four women were so important that Yi Zi personally sat in the van instead of sitting in the more comfortable car in front.
Among the four men and four women in the van, judging by their looks, six of them are Chinese, and only two are darker and have indigenous features. Without exception, these four men and four women are all young, no more than three years old at most.
Ten years old. All of them were handcuffed and looked nervous and frightened. Three of the girls were sobbing and crying non-stop along the way.
They didn't know it yet, but they had already appeared on the TV news in Luojia City. At the Luojia City Police Station, they were labeled as "missing persons". The entire Luojia City was looking for them.
In the past twenty days, missing persons cases have occurred frequently in Luojia City. These young boys and girls suddenly disappeared when they were in school, when they were at work, and some were even sleeping at home.
There were no clues, and no witnesses. These boys and girls seemed to have vanished from the world, suddenly disappearing without a trace. The parents of the sixteen-year-old girl who was inexplicably "lost" while she was sleeping at home...
I was so anxious that I kept blaming myself for sleeping too hard and not taking good care of my daughter.
Right now, the youngest girl was crying the saddest and most frightened. Her little body was trembling. Like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind, it seemed that she would fall down at any time.
"Stop crying! If you cry again, I'll kill you!"
An indigenous man sitting not far from her, with a pistol on his waist, stared at her and cursed fiercely.
Sister-in-law Nian was so frightened that she trembled all over and covered her mouth hard for fear of making any more noise.
Ji Qingsha, who was sitting next to her, stretched out her arms, put her arms around the little girl's shoulders, patted her gently, and comforted her in a low voice: "Little sister, don't be afraid, everything will be fine."
Among the four men and four women, Ji Qingsha was the calmest. She was calmer than the other boys. The indigenous man who escorted them kept looking at her, but in the end they didn't ask anything.
Ji Qingsha was the last one to be escorted into the car. Before that, the escorted indigenous people had seen seven other men and women, all of whom were imprisoned in the cellar of Fan Mansion. No one could have imagined that all the people who had disappeared recently were hidden in Fan Mansion.
Mansion.
In Luojia City, there is no safer place than Fan Mansion, even safer than the mayor's home. After Huang Qingyun and his son suddenly disappeared, Mr. Fan Ying has become the new Chinese leader of Luojia City. Especially with his
Due to the deep friendship between Mr. Fan Ying and the person in charge of Luojiacheng Police Station, no policeman dared to break into Fan's house to search.
Even if a few policemen are really brave and dare to break into Fan's house, they must first pass Fan Ying's test.
Who doesn’t know that Mr. Fan Ying is the “most famous” Chinese head-dressing master in Luojia City?
A powerful Chinese tycoon may not be able to put a "disobedient" policeman to death immediately, but it is definitely not the same as a police officer.
Ji Qingsha didn't show up until tonight when these people were escorted into the car. They came in Master Yimu's car. If Ji Qingsha hadn't also been wearing a pair of shiny handcuffs on her wrists, the indigenous people responsible for escorting them would definitely have
They misunderstood that Ji Qingsha was a friend of Master Yi'er, but they never thought that this ridiculously beautiful Chinese girl was also a "prisoner".
There is no doubt that these four men and four women are the masculine men and masculine women that Yi Zhi and Fan Ying collected in Luojia City. They were the "furnace cauldrons" specially ordered by Grand Master Mojiu.
According to the population ratio, there are far more indigenous people in Luojia City than Chinese. But among the eight male and female, there are six Chinese. This is mainly because the indigenous people are too poor, and pregnant indigenous women generally give birth at home.
, at best, ask an experienced woman of the same race to help, just like the "midwives" of the past in China who rarely went to the hospital.
They cannot afford expensive medical expenses and hospitalization expenses.
There is no birth record, and naturally there is no birthday. It is really unreliable to rely solely on the household registration reported by these indigenous people to the police. Some indigenous women who have many children cannot even remember their children.
Specific birthdays. It is basically impossible to find a man born in a yang year, yang month, yang day, yang hour and a yin year, yin month, yin day, yin hour.
The two young indigenous men found by Fan Ying had good family conditions, affluent finances, and detailed birth records in the hospital. Unfortunately, they became the targets of Fan Ying's arrest.
Among the four Chinese women, there is no Fan Ling.
Ji Qingsha successfully persuaded Fan Le to replace Fan Ling with herself.
On this bright moonlit night, Ji Qingsha and seven other boys and girls took a van and drove to Mojiu Manor again.
"Sister, I'm so scared..."
The little girl lying in Ji Qingsha's arms finally stopped sobbing and said tremblingly.
Ji Qingsha gently patted her thin back and said softly: "Don't be afraid, everything will be fine."
Such comfort obviously did not have much effect. The little girl was still shaking and lowered her voice and asked: "Sister, where are they going to send us? What are they going to do to us..."
Ji Qingsha hugged her tighter and said no more.
Soon, the motorcade drove into Mojiu Manor. To Ji Qingsha's expectation, the motorcade did not drive into the inner city of the manor, but stopped in front of a row of houses close to the inner city.
This is a row of bungalow-style buildings, all built with strips of stone. They look very old-fashioned, but they are also extremely strong. Ji Qingsha doubts that even with a grenade, such a stone wall may not be able to explode.
All four men and four women were escorted into the building.
As Ji Qingsha expected, this building is a small prison. But relatively speaking, the prison's living facilities are quite complete, the color is not so dark, and the layout is more active and lively. Each cell is
They are independent, with separate toilets and shower rooms, as well as TVs, and even computers in each cell.
What can be seen is that these computers can only play stand-alone games and absolutely cannot access the Internet.
The natives escorted them together, and Yi'er personally "taught" everyone. Yi'er told these panicked young men and women that they would not be abused in any way, their lives would be guaranteed, and they could ask the guards for whatever they wanted to eat.
The staff will try their best to meet everyone's requests.
"What exactly do you want us to do?"
A bolder Chinese boy finally couldn't help but ask.
Everyone looked at Yi Zhi seriously, hoping to hear a definite answer from his mouth.
Yi Zhi smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm just asking you to do me a favor. In two days at most, when this matter is completed, I will let you go home. As long as you are obedient, nothing will happen."
"Of course, if anyone is disobedient, don't blame us for being rude."
In this case, of course it must be said. If there are guys with particularly strong personalities among these boys and girls, it would be terrible if they give it to themselves. But it is obviously even more inappropriate to tie them all up.
This will only make them more frightened and uneasy. Some suicide methods cannot be stopped even if their hands and feet are tied.
Relatively speaking, Yizi prefers to use a relatively "mild" approach.
People actually live in hope.
As long as there is hope, even if it is just a glimmer of hope, you will not do anything stupid.
Yi Zhi understands this very well.
Although he was not very satisfied with Yi'er's answer, the more courageous Chinese boy did not ask any new questions. As if to verify that Yi'er's words were not lies, a servant soon served him a sumptuous late-night snack.
, sat down among the Yi children, smiled and invited everyone to eat together.
This sumptuous late-night snack indeed had a very good soothing effect. The young men and women who were trembling with fear gradually calmed down. Their thinking was very simple. Maybe it was just as Yi Er said, and they just wanted everyone to help.
Just busy. If Yi Zhen really has bad intentions towards them, why should he be so nice to everyone?
Seeing that the emotions of the "Luding" people gradually stabilized, Yi Er was also very happy.
After finishing the midnight snack, Yi Ru told everyone not to put handcuffs on them anymore and arranged for them to go into a room to rest.
Ji Qingsha's room is arranged on the outermost side, closest to the exit of the prison. If something unexpected happens, perhaps this arrangement will allow Ji Qingsha to leave here as soon as possible.
Ji Qingsha walked into the cell with steady steps and a calm expression.
Before leaving, Yi Zi stopped at the door of her room and glanced at her, which seemed to mean: It's not too late to regret now.
Ji Qingsha's face was expressionless.
Yi Zi shook her head slightly and finally strode out.
Fan Ying followed closely behind, a little impatient at her feet. It could be seen that Fan Ying was much more nervous than Ji Qingsha.
He couldn't help but be nervous.
He was "making mischief" right under the nose of Grand Imperial Master Mojiu. Once he was exposed, everyone would be dead.
But at this moment, Fan Ying couldn't change anything. He could only pray to God to bless him to survive this disaster safely. He hoped that Xiao Fan and Fan Le could keep their promise and share one-third of his family property after the incident was completed.
However, many things in this world are destined to be nothing more than beautiful extravagant hopes.
