Chapter 106 - Human Traffickers In Military Zone 1
Chapter 106: Human Traffickers In Military Zone 1
After a few minutes, the voice seemed to get closer.
So near that Gu Qingjiu could finally catch bits and pieces of what they were saying.
“There’s no one... rest assured... faster... faster...”
In an instant, He Niancheng pointed to a huge rock to the left of the forest. Several rocks covered those pine trees, making it a good place to hide.
Gu Qingjiu understood He Niancheng’s intentions almost immediately.
She ran softly but swiftly towards the rock while He Niancheng followed closely behind.
The hiding place was cramped, so He Niancheng had no choice but to squat right beside her. With a close distance, Gu Qingjiu could catch a whiff of the crisp and refreshing scent He Niancheng had.
She had no idea what body soap he had used, just that he smelled nice.
But such a close distance made Gu Qingjiu a little nervous as well.
Other than Su Lingche, she had never been that close to another man.
Not to mention that this man was her Chief Instructor...
Even if he saved her yesterday.
But Gu Qingjiu’s attention quickly switched focus to the murmurs.
And understood why He Niancheng wanted them to hide.
From her angle, she could see three to four men appearing from the forests.
They appeared anxious and were dressed in ordinary clothes. They were on the stockier side, and the thinnest man appeared to be leading them. But in the middle of the group was a man who was carrying a girl clad in uniform.
She seemed to be asleep as she laid on the man’s back, her arms falling limply by her side.
It startled Gu Qingjiu.
This scene seemed off to her no matter what.
They were walking swiftly, but the way their eyes were accessing their surroundings... Even the things they said gave them away!
“Let’s be quick. Once this last one is off the mountain and transferred out of the city, we will dismiss once we finish this meal ticket.”
Because they were moving swiftly, that was the only statement she caught, allowing her to draw her conclusion from it.
The amount of information revealed in that statement was enough for her to understand.
They were human traffickers!
Startled at the fact, she turned to look at He Niancheng.
He Niancheng’s gaze was locked towards the direction the traffickers went, and his forehead scrunched up.
“Chief... Chief Instructor... this is...”
It was the first time she encountered such a situation, so Gu Qingjiu found it hard to believe.
These human traffickers dared to target the female recruits in the army?
Soldiers surrounded that place, and it was a military zone. How were these people brazenly kidnapping people from such a place?
“Follow me.”
He Niancheng’s gaze darkened as he threw a sudden instruction. Gu Qingjiu had many questions, but at that moment, she could only follow him without hesitation.
“The road ahead is the furthest from Dayi City, but the security is not strict. If they are villagers, they can go out pretty much without checks.”
Gu Qingjiu immediately understood He Niancheng’s words. She quickly pulled out her cell phone. “I will call Commander Huo. He should be able to send some people to arrest them, right?”
Gu Qingjiu’s reaction and processing speed shocked He Niancheng.
Although he could see a trace of nervousness in the girl’s eyes, she was still calm enough. Else, she wouldn’t have been able to react quickly.
He Niancheng nodded. “I didn’t bring my cell phone. I’ll tell you his number and you’ll call. It will take five minutes for them to get there. Make sure to tell Huo Yingcheng to not expose himself. The ravines are right by the side, so we can’t risk having them throw the hostage down in a moment of panic.”
