Chapter 43 Encountering a Human Trafficker on the Train
The train was packed with people. The most similar thing between trains at that time and those in later times was that there were so many people and the smell was so bad. Especially in this era, people were fighting over seats, and some even fought over a seat. Some people even bought fake tickets.
Lin Wanqing was lucky today. She found a seat as soon as she got on the train. The window seat was pretty good. She sat opposite a sturdy man with a long scar on his face. He looked like someone who was not easy to mess with. He was so big that he could sit in a seat that could accommodate two people. The old man next to him was so angry that he dared not say anything. The old man smoked a Han cigarette, puffing one after another.
At first, the seat next to the aisle was occupied by an old lady, and then another old lady with curly hair came and said that this was her seat. The two of them started arguing about this. Neither of the two old ladies gave in to the other, and their voices were very loud, which shocked Lin Wanqing and made her frown.
The flight attendant came over and asked what was going on. The lady with curly hair said that the lady in red clothes had a fake ticket and had taken her seat.
The uniformed flight attendant, with a serious face, shouted, "Speak one by one! Show me both of your tickets."
While everyone was talking, Lin Wanqing felt something hard in her pocket. She took it out and tried to take a look, but the box looked very delicate and it was obviously a valuable item. She thought about where it came from, then slapped her forehead and remembered that Nie Tianyin must have put it in her pocket when she wasn't paying attention.
She didn't open it yet, but put it in her small bag and carried it on her chest with a sweet look on her face. After all, there are all kinds of people on the train now, and she was afraid of losing things. Before she got on the train, Nie Tianyin also reminded her to be careful on the train because there would be thieves.
Time goes slowly on the train. Lin Wanqing took out some food and stood up to get some water. When she walked to the aisle, she found that there was something wrong with a few people sitting in one seat. She couldn't tell what was wrong, but she knew that the little girl sitting next to them kept sobbing, and the adults next to them acted as if they didn't see anything. She glanced at the little girl.
The little girl's clothes were tattered and in tatters, in stark contrast to what the adults were wearing. A fierce-looking woman was trying to pull her apart, and the little girl became even more frightened, trembling all over.
Lin Wanqing felt something was wrong. After she got the water, she found that everyone in that seat except the little girl was sleeping.
The little girl saw someone looking at her and thought she was a kind girl. She let out her sleeves. Lin Wanqing saw that her arms were purple and it was obvious that she was beaten. She also thought that her parents were not good to her, but who knew that her kindness would be involved in a child kidnapping case.
When they were almost in Beijing, those people were still wandering around in the carriage. Lin Wanqing was a little confused and went to the toilet. The toilet was always closed, so she knocked and asked when they were done. Maybe the people inside heard her voice and opened the door.
But no one came out. At this time, a little girl's voice came from the bathroom. It sounded very weak and trembling, "Sister, come in." Lin Wanqing went in after hearing this and closed the door.
When she went in, she saw that it was the little girl she had seen before. This little girl was in an even worse condition. She was trembling all over, her face was pale, and her lips were bitten by her, with some blood seeping out of them.
Lin Wanqing was also shocked. She squatted down and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, child? Did something happen? It's okay, tell your sister. Don't be afraid." She touched the little girl's face and wiped her tears.
The little girl choked and cried intermittently, her cry sounded like a kitten, "Sister, I want to go home, woo woo."
"Go home, baby, don't cry, and talk to your sister nicely. What's your name?" Lin Wanqing's heart skipped a beat, thinking that she must have encountered child traffickers.
The little girl wiped her tears and said, "My name is Zhu Xiaoying. I'm from Xinxiang. I was playing outside and was knocked unconscious by these uncles in the car. Then I ended up here." As the little girl spoke, she stretched out her arms and hugged Lin Wanqing's arm.
Lin Wanqing held her and thought quickly. She was thinking about what to do. "Xiaoying, why don't you get on the bus and go find the police uncle in the car?" She was a little confused. "They said the police uncles in the car were their people. I also saw the police uncles smiling with them, and then I didn't dare to do it." The little girl sobbed.
She asked the child to wait in the toilet for a while. She planned to find the policeman to ask if this was true. Lin Wanqing returned to her seat to put her things away. The man opposite her suddenly spoke to her, "Where were you, sister? Why did you take so long?" When Lin Wanqing heard him say this, she felt that he was trying to trick her, so she just smiled and said nothing.
Lin Wanqing looked at the police officer who was passing by. When she stepped forward to ask some unimportant questions, the male police officer could tell at a glance what she wanted to ask and took her to the police room.
"Tell me what's the matter. Stop wasting time and just say it." The male police officer said straightforwardly.
Lin Wanqing rubbed her hands and said, "It's like this, I just ran into a little girl in the toilet." She told him everything that happened just now. The police officer stopped writing down his things and told her to lead the way.
The police officer called a few more people and went to the toilet with her to take the child out. The little girl hugged Lin Wanqing's thigh tightly. The little girl was very thin, so Lin Wanqing picked her up.
The human traffickers saw the child and hurried over to say that Lin Wanqing had stolen her child.
There was a short man with a sharp voice who was chattering there, and the police officer next to him asked him to be quiet.
All of them got off the bus in Beijing and went to the Public Security Bureau. After some questioning, the police finally figured out the situation and arrested the traffickers. The child is still at the Public Security Bureau and they are also trying to contact the child's parents.
After Lin Wanqing went to school, she found a teacher and arranged a dormitory for her. When she moved in, she was the only one there.
She sat on the bed, she chose the top bunk because she thought it was cleaner than the bottom bunk. It looked OK, but it felt a bit crowded.
A few months later, Lin Wanqing's school officially started classes. She thought that military training should not exist in this era, but she was overthinking.
What she didn't know was that this military training made her completely famous.
Such a long time had passed, and she had almost forgotten about the child trafficking incident. Lin Wanqing had never thought that the little girl's uncle was actually their instructor. She was still confused when she was called out.
It turned out that after the child returned home, she told her family about how Lin Wanqing helped her. The child's family searched for a long time before they found out that Lin Wanqing was studying in Beijing. The family learned about Lin Wanqing's situation from the police on the train. Because they called the police at that time to ask for her information, they knew that she was studying at Beijing Medical University.
