"The little girl is young and energetic, and her body is fine, but she must not suffer any more cold weather. She will stay warm and rest for three months, and she will be back to her original state."
The doctor's words gave Song Che reassurance.
Jiang Yuntian sealed the Huichun Building, and after interrogation, he found that many girls were sold by Chen San and forced into prostitution by the madam.
Human traffickers are heinous.
Chen San was immediately searched throughout the city.
But what is surprising but not surprising is that that night, someone found a male body with his throat cut in the snow outside the city. After being identified, he was the human trafficker Chen San.
This is undoubtedly the Ma family's killing of the donkey. Coco's kidnapping can also be seen as revenge for the Ma family.
In order to prevent this from happening again, the military camp has added a ban, which strictly prohibits soldiers from going out alone except under special circumstances.
Although the Ma family dare not kill people openly, they can use their own power to do evil things behind the scenes.
It is easy to dodge an open sword, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.
It was November 21st, six days before Ma Taigong's birthday.
Ning Yehong also came to the military camp again with information. It was reported that:
The two families who were wiped out by the "Japanese pirates" were named Wang and Kong. As Song Che expected, there were men in both families who went to sea to pan for gold. One was named Wang Qi and the other was named Kong Si.
These two people are considered the backbone of the family. In order to change poverty and get rich overnight, they often go out to sea to make money together.
According to relatives of the Wang and Kong families, Wang Qi and Kong Si left home last year and disappeared without a trace since then. Even their family members thought they had died overseas;
Surprisingly, they returned home in the middle of this month.
You must know that since July last year, the Japanese invasion has become increasingly serious. The imperial court has issued a sea ban and the entire coastline has been blocked. How can they return from overseas and bring a lot of gold sand with them?
Either they were Japanese pirates, or they escaped death.
In addition to Wang Qi and Kong Si, there was also a man named Peng San who often went to sea with them. These three people had a very good relationship. In their early years, they made a living by fishing in the open sea. Later, they discovered that there were golden sands overseas, so they gave up fishing and started fishing. Gold mining.
If Wang Qi and Kong Si both come back, so will Peng Sanshiyou89.
Peng San's family lives in Donghe County, Taizhou. There is only one mother in the family. In the middle of this month, the whole family moved without even bringing any luggage. It was more like fleeing.
It was impossible for the old woman to leave on her own. Her son Peng San must have returned and sensed the danger, so he took her away in a hurry.
Wang, Kong, and Peng must have known some secret before they were silenced and exterminated, and this matter must be closely related to the Japanese pirates and Jin Zi.
Finding Peng San may solve all the mysteries.
Nowadays, in order to prevent Japanese pirates from escaping disguised as civilians, strict checkpoints are set up in various states. If there is no way out, they will be expelled or arrested.
Peng San fled without even taking his luggage, and most likely he didn't have any road signs. He was probably still in Taizhou.
Knowing that he was carrying a secret, Peng San would never go to seek refuge with his relatives, but where could he go with his old mother? How to avoid being hunted down?
Song Che might be able to satisfy him.
The next day, Song Che issued a notice in the name of the Taizhou Army:
An additional area will be divided in the military camp, called the "Refugee Camp", to specifically house the homeless refugees in Taizhou, and provide tents and food. No road citations are required, only names and addresses are required;
We have food, drink, clothing, shelter, and the protection of the army. Will you come, Peng San? Even if you don't come, you should bring your old mother, right?
Sure enough, on the first day after the notice was issued, countless homeless people came to stay with their families.
Song Che asked the registered soldiers to pay special attention to a single man in his thirties, seven feet tall, with dark skin, and a sixty-year-old mother. As for his name and address, Peng San most likely lied.
Huainan's pacification policy was gradually implemented. Most of the refugees who came to the private camps stayed temporarily and were managed by the army, and the state government arranged for their transfer.
For example, if a certain town has completely eliminated the Japanese invasion, the state government will send people to escort the refugees back.
The refugee camp was open for three days and accommodated nearly a thousand people. They set up tents according to the army's specifications. They slept on bunks and ate big pot meals. If the welfare was good, it was definitely not much better. After all, Taizhou itself was Not rich, but at least they don't have to sleep in the open and suffer from hunger.
"Military advisor, a mother and son came today. They match the conditions of the person you are looking for, but the man's name is Xie San and he lives in Qingyuan Town in the south."
The soldiers came into the account to complain.
The nets are cast to catch the goods.
"Invite him."
Song Che specifically emphasized: "Remember, it's a 'please', not an arrest. Don't be too ostentatious."
The soldiers should leave.
Soon, a seven-foot-tall black man was brought into the military tent.
She has been living overseas all year round and has naturally dark skin.
Xie San obviously looked a little uncomfortable, and said in a tentative tone: "I wonder what the military advisor wants from me?"
Song Che asked first: "I heard that you are from Qingyuan Town?"
Xie San was stunned and nodded: "That's right, the villain."
Song Che chuckled and said, "Then we are fellow villagers. My ancestral home is also in Qingyuan Town. Since I entered the official career, I haven't returned to my hometown for a long time."
Xie San just smiled apologetically.
"Sit down, fellow man." Song Che pointed to the chair.
Xie San said: "The common people have a low status and dare not sit on an equal footing with military advisors."
Song Che waved his hand, "Hey, you're welcome. My eyes are filled with tears when I see my fellow countrymen. I'm just going to talk to you about common things, so don't overthink it."
Xie San took his seat and sat upright.
Seeing Xie San's appearance, Song Che already knew it. He asked in a normal tone: "By the way, I remember there is a thousand-year-old locust tree at the entrance of the town. Is it growing well now?"
Xie San nodded without thinking: "Okay, it's growing very well. It's an ancient tree in Qingyuan Town, so it can't be bad."
"My surname is really Xie? But I remember that there is no family named Xie in Qingyuan Town." Song Che revealed a hint of doubt.
Xie San's expression changed drastically. After hesitating for a long time, he finally thought of a suitable reason: "Commander, you haven't been back for a long time. Maybe you remembered it wrong..."
"Well...it's true. A hundred years of vicissitudes have changed the world, but ten years have changed the world." Song Che pursed his lips, stared at Xie San and asked again:
"But the locust tree has grown for thousands of years and never fell. How could I not have known about this?"
"Uh-huh!"
Xie San jumped up from his chair.
Song Che stared at Xie San with sharp eyes: "I am not from Qingyuan Town, and neither are you. Your name is not even Xie San, but Peng San. You live in Donghe County, and your mother's surname is Xie, right? "
Xie San said nothing, his nervous expression and sweat on his forehead already gave the answer.
"This refugee camp was built just for you. You don't have to be afraid. I'm not a Japanese pirate."
Song Che took out a small linen bag from his sleeve, poured all the gold sand inside on the desk in front of Xie San, and asked:
"Come, tell me about it."
