"old……"
Zou Huaide wanted to say something else, but before he could say anything, the other party snorted and the call was hung up.
The beeping sound of hanging up echoed clearly in the extremely quiet cave.
Looking at the cell phone so close to him, he didn't even have the courage to call back, for fear that if he called back, he would anger his boss and lose the three days' grace.
"..."
For a moment, you could hear needles dropping in the cave.
The expressions on all the dealers' faces were as uncomfortable as eating flies.
At this time, Li Wangxin broke the silence and said: "No need to panic, three days should be enough."
As he spoke, he pointed at the calendar.
Today is the 13th.
The number 12 is circled in red and the number 13 is circled in black.
"Chaozi went to Beihe Province in advance two weeks ago to find the two children from Beihe Province on the list for us, and visited them. Today is the day for his return according to the prescribed time. As soon as he comes back, we will immediately set off to Beihe Province. It won’t take long to move the base from the imperial capital to Beihe Province. When we get to Beihe Province, we won’t worry about it so much. We’ll kidnap a child and send it to the boss first.”
"Although the time is a little rushed, it has to be like this."
Zou Huaide nodded helplessly.
At this time, one of the traffickers couldn't help complaining: "I really don't know why the boss is obsessed with these children on the list!"
"yes."
Another trafficker nodded with deep understanding and echoed: "If there were no restrictions on this list and there were so many children, we wouldn't be able to catch one and fill this loophole. How could we be in this predicament now?"
"alright."
Zou Huaide interrupted their discussion and said: "It's natural for the boss to do this for his own reasons. We just have to follow it and get a lot of money."
"The boss is right."
Another trafficker flattered him, then turned his eyes and saw the photo of Lin Beichen next to the satellite phone. His eyes were fierce, and he spat: "What the hell, this guy should be blamed if you want, this guy is responsible for everything." Yes, if this kid hadn't ruined our carefully planned operation for more than two months, we would be in such a mess now, being urged by the boss and being searched by the police!"
"yes!"
Another trafficker took over the conversation and sighed: "It's a pity that we have to move somewhere soon. Otherwise, labor and management would have to wait for the news to subside to find him and give him a hard time!"
"You can run away from a monk, but you can't run away from a temple."
A cruel smile appeared on Li Wangxin's face, and he sneered: "This guy is a freshman at Imperial University and will stay in Imperial City for four years. There are many opportunities for us in the future."
He just finished speaking.
A slightly tired and nervous voice came from the entrance of the cave.
"Brothers, what are you talking about? It's such a lively chat?"
"Chaozi, you're back, thank you for your hard work."
Zou Huaide went up to him and patted the man who came through the hole.
This man was wearing a long raincoat. He was none other than the man who had appeared at the Immortal Platform and later saw Lin Beichen.
And he is the Chaozi, Sun Chao, whom Li Wangxin mentioned just now, who went out to find someone to step on.
"Brother Zou."
"Chaozi, on this trip to Beihe Province, have you found the two children from Beihe Province on the list?"
"I'll do the work, don't worry."
Sun Chao patted his chest and said with a forced smile: "I've found everything, and I've almost stamped on everything."
Hear him say that.
The traffickers present suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the expressions on their faces became relaxed and happy.
At this time, Sun Chao's voice sounded in their ears again.
"Hey, where is Uncle Quan?"
Sun Chao looked at Zou Huaide with confusion.
He went to Beihe Province for two weeks. According to regulations, in order to avoid being exposed, he never contacted anyone in the human trafficker gang and had no idea what happened in the imperial capital in the past week.
"died."
Zou Huaide sighed and said in a deep voice: "A week ago, when we were on the move, he was discovered by a student named Lin Beichen. He died while escaping. I secretly inquired about it and said that he was unlucky to be killed by a thunderbolt while escaping. Killed to death, the appearance of death...hey, let’s not talk about it anymore!”
Struck to death by lightning? ? ?
The scene he saw on the way back suddenly appeared in Sun Chao's mind, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly shook his head and shook the scene out of his mind.
Zou Huaide then continued: "Just now, the brothers were talking about Lin Beichen."
As he spoke, he pointed to the photo of Lin Beichen on the table.
"The brothers all hate him so much that they want to look for an opportunity to let him know the price of being brave because he caused our operation to fail and made it impossible for us to hand over our children to the boss on time. Now the boss is angry, but he is still there The boss gave you three days of grace, and now everyone is waiting for you to come back so that you can move to Beihe Province immediately..."
While Sun Chao listened to Zou Huaide talking about the situation here, he also looked in the direction of his finger.
And this look, just this one look...
He instantly recognized that the person in the photo was the person he met on the way back who was struck by lightning.
Lin Beichen?
His name is Lin Beichen? ?
For a moment, Sun Chao shivered, and his dead memory suddenly attacked again.
His face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "How could it be him?"
"???"
The traffickers looked at each other, what's going on? Why does it feel like he saw a ghost? He's just a young boy, right?
Zou Huaide noticed something, frowned and asked: "What, Chaozi, have you seen him before?"
"I've seen... I've seen you."
Sun Chao nodded with difficulty, the expression on his face was indescribably stiff, and said: "I saw him in the mountains on the way back just now."
"What?!"
The trafficker perked up as soon as he heard this.
Doesn’t this mean that there is no place to be found after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there?
Li Wangxin even asked directly: "Chaozi, where did you see him in the mountains? Who else is around him? What is he doing in the mountains?"
There was a fierce glint in his eyes, and the smile on his face looked even more ferocious.
Sun Chao really didn't want to recall the outrageous scene he saw, and said vaguely: "Not far from the marked tree, he was alone, with no one around him, meditating alone in the rain. .”
Traffickers: “???”
Meditate?
What is this operation?
They didn't understand, but they didn't want to understand either.
What they were more concerned about was Lin Beichen's location and the fact that there was no one else around him.
"Where is it? Then we will pass by it when we transfer, right?"
"It was a pity that I didn't have the chance to deal with this kid just now, but I didn't expect that the opportunity would come now!"
"Kill this kid before you leave. It's deep in the mountains and forests. If you throw the body away, no one will find it."
The traffickers feel the time has come for revenge.
Li Wangxin turned to look at Zou Huaide and said in a dark voice: "Then when we are transferred, we can give that kid to..."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of wiping his neck, and then continued: "There is no telling when a person will be found dead in the deep mountains and old forests. By that time, we will no longer be in the imperial capital, and we may not even be in Beihe Province anymore. Don’t delay things.”
Zou Huaide nodded in agreement.
While everyone was discussing, they didn't even notice that Sun Chao on the side suddenly became a little frightened when he saw that they had decided to kill Lin Beichen. After hesitating for a moment, he finally persuaded with some fear: "How about... Let’s forget it.”
moment.
The other traffickers all looked at him with cold eyes and frowning, not understanding why he said that.
"What do you mean, Chaozi?"
Hearing this, the expression on Sun Chao's face was a little tangled, as if he had thought of something terrible, a little fear appeared in his eyes, he swallowed hard, and then lowered his voice and said: "This Lin Beichen is not quite right. Evil sect, I suspect...he is a hidden master!"
