Chapter 828, Yaozu's Sister (Control Group)
The two were busy pretending to be children and getting off the bus, so they didn't pay any attention to what was behind them. They didn't react when the child was first revealed, and by the time they tried to make a move, the child and his bag had already been snatched away by Hu Xuan.
They couldn't make up any lies to explain themselves in this situation, so they had no choice but to take action. The two rushed out almost simultaneously, one trying to snatch the travel bag, and the other heading towards Hu Xuan, whose hand was also reaching for his waist at the same time.
Fox Xuan certainly wouldn't give them a chance to make a move. As he got the child out, he went towards the two of them. He grabbed the wrist of one of them who was reaching for his waist with one hand, and with the other hand, he turned his palm into a knife and slashed at the carotid artery of the other person who was passing by him!
As he moved, the next moment there were two sounds, "crack" and "plop," followed by a pig-like scream.
One person was lying unconscious on the ground, while the other was clutching his unnaturally drooping wrist and screaming in pain. His wrist had been broken, and the veins on his forehead were bulging from the pain.
At this moment, Hu Xuan did not stop. Instead, he stepped on the man's other good hand and crippled his other wrist, rendering him unable to resist. Only then did he search the man's waist and find a pistol and a dagger in his other trouser pocket.
The train conductor who was closest to the train was startled by the scene and, along with the people who had quietly followed to watch the commotion, instinctively took two steps back.
The train had already pulled into the station. Because it was a small station, not all the lights inside the train were on. However, the station lights shone through the windows on both sides, making the train much brighter, so they could see clearly.
Seeing that Hu Xuan had subdued the two men, the train conductor quickly asked someone to call the train police. He then moved the travel bag containing the child to the side to prevent it from bumping into anything.
The other people who came later also surrounded and protected the child. They had just heard someone looking for the child and thought the child had just run away on his own. They never expected that there was a human trafficker.
Seeing that the child was making so much noise and still didn't wake up, they knew that he had been drugged. They knew that human traffickers liked to drug children to make them sleep, so that they wouldn't be exposed.
However, this human trafficker is too arrogant. He not only carries a knife but also a gun. He could hurt someone if you're not careful!
The passengers who went to call the train police split into two groups. There were train police patrolling on both sides, and they looked for the nearest one and went first.
Xiao Yun had finished searching the last carriage and was heading back when she was found by a passenger in a carriage one section away from their own. Upon hearing that a trafficker had found a child, she immediately ran forward, even ahead of the train police officer.
When they passed their carriage, she grabbed Xiang Rou and ran alongside her, saying that the child had been found.
Xiang Rou, who was initially struggling to keep up after being pulled by her, immediately perked up upon hearing this and sped up, overtaking her and pulling her along.
Xiao Yun didn't mind being dragged along; a mother can unleash unlimited potential at times like this.
However, Xiao Yun felt that the two people were probably not human traffickers. What kind of human trafficker would be so focused on grabbing just one child? She had noticed when she was looking for people in each carriage that there were quite a few children on the train, some even younger than Zhe Ming.
Moreover, those parents were much more careless than Xiang Rou. They slept on opposite sides of the bed with their children and left them outside. Wouldn't that make them easier to take away than Zheming?
Furthermore, although guns are not currently banned, not just anyone can get their hands on a handgun. This is clearly aimed at Xiang Rou or Lu Jinzhi.
Fox Xuan had obviously thought of this as well, and he casually placed truth talismans on the two of them while he was making his move.
This is a talisman drawn by Xiao Yun after his cultivation level increased. It is more natural to use than those of the middle grade. It is not the kind that makes people's minds seem to be controlled and they will say anything when questioned. Instead, it will initially make excuses, but if you interrogate it a few times, it will reveal its flaws and gradually confess. In the end, it will give up and say whatever you ask.
Soon, the two of them arrived at carriage number six. The train police officers on the other side had already arrived and subdued the human traffickers, preparing to take them away for questioning.
Xiang Rou spotted the child being carried out immediately. She rushed forward, snatched the child from the police officer's arms, and held him in her own arms, sobbing uncontrollably and repeatedly kissing the child's forehead.
The police officer who had just picked up the child was startled and thought she was an accomplice of a human trafficker. He almost attacked her, but Xiao Yun stepped forward and explained that she was the child's mother, and only then did the officer put down his baton.
"What, what's going on? Why isn't the child waking up?" Xiang Rou became anxious again when she saw that the child was unresponsive.
Hu Xuan reassured him, "The child has probably been drugged. Let's ask the train police to help us find a doctor on the train and see if there's anything wrong."
Because these two bad guys were also getting off at this station, the train didn't leave even when it was time to depart. The train police were going to go to the local police station to have someone investigate whether these two people were from this area and whether there was a human trafficking gang in the area.
As for taking the child to the hospital here, forget it. Not to mention the worry of the child being taken to the wrong place, this is such a small station, it's good enough that there's even a health center. I doubt there would be any doctors on duty at night.
It would be better to see if there's a doctor on the bus who's just leaving; they'd get here faster.
What a coincidence! There was an elderly doctor in this carriage, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Traditional Chinese medicine is great; you can find the source of illness just by taking a pulse without needing any instruments.
Xiao Yun also knows this, and is even better than the old Chinese medicine doctor. Isn't this inconsistent with her character? Besides, she has already used her divine sense to examine the child. It's just a drug, nothing too serious.
The old doctor told him to put the child on the bed before he went over to take the child's pulse. He had been in the same carriage and had overheard what had happened, but being old and frail, he hadn't come over to join the commotion. So he quickly came to a conclusion.
"The child has been drugged, probably the inhaled kind. It's nothing serious, he'll be fine once he wakes up. If you're worried, you can take him to a bigger hospital for a more thorough check-up after we get off the bus," the doctor told them.
It wasn't that he didn't trust his own medical skills, but rather that traditional Chinese medicine had been criticized before, and many people felt that traditional Chinese medicine was inferior to Western medicine, which is why he made such a statement.
Xiang Rou, on the other hand, has more faith in traditional Chinese medicine. Her uncle's family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. Because of their excellent medical skills, they have always worked as health care doctors for high-ranking leaders and were not affected during those years.
She thanked the doctor sincerely and wanted to take her child and go with the train police to give a statement, but then she realized that she was too weak to stand up.
Xiao Yun went over and helped her up, then let Hu Xuan hold the child before following the train police officers who were carrying the criminals toward the police station.
After drinking the water poured for her by the train police, Xiang Rou finally calmed down. Hu Xuan and Xiao Yun had also finished telling the story. After hearing the identities of Hu Xuan and the child's parents, the train police, like Xiao Yun, suspected that this was not child abduction, but a targeted arrest.
Then we can't hand these people over to the police station in such a small place. Not to mention the possibility of collusion, if these people have accomplices, the police station might not be able to keep an eye on them.
Now, due to the large number of people returning to the city in recent years, many have become drifters without jobs, causing chaos outside. Police resources are also severely insufficient, and many police stations have been attacked by criminal gangs. Many cases have become cold cases that cannot be solved.
Since the child was fine, they decided to take the two criminals directly back to Beijing and hand them over to the local police.
Of course, it's also to curry favor with Hu Xuan and the Xiang family, especially the Xiang family, who have considerable influence in the capital. If they use their connections to exert their influence, this case can probably be solved very quickly.
Two days later, they arrived in the capital. On the way, Xiang Rou made a phone call home at a major station, so as soon as they got off the train, someone was waiting for them, and they were taken away along with the two thugs.
Hu Xuan and Xiao Yun didn't go with them, of course. They were picked up by someone. Hu Xuan's old leader was just helping to make the connection. The two soldiers who came to pick them up were also arranged to have a special car.
Xiao Yun raised an eyebrow. This was quite a show of force. He wondered which department was going to cooperate with Hu Xuan.
Yes, cooperation. That's what Fox Xuan's former boss said. After all, Fox Xuan has already reached the position of county magistrate, and not just any department can transfer him away at will.
Xiao Yun had some guesses, but couldn't be sure yet.
After driving for more than an hour, we arrived at the gate of a large compound. After getting out of the car and registering, we passed through layers of guard posts before finally arriving in front of a building.
The house looks unremarkable from the outside, like an ordinary two-story building. But once inside, the entire space is open, with only a few load-bearing columns supporting the roof.
Moreover, it was a mess inside, with mechanical parts and machines everywhere, some of which were still running, like a factory, but there weren't that many workers, only a few people walking among a bunch of machines.
Xiao Yun glanced around and knew that this must be a research and development base for machinery. Some people were using these machines to polish parts, while others were assembling them.
Alright, Xiao Yun is certain now. The reason he called Hu Xuan over is related to machinery.
At first, she thought it was about a prescription, since the prescription they had shown earlier was indeed very effective in treating external injuries.
As for the machinery, it can only be the sidecar they modified before.
To make it easier to visit her parents' home in winter, she instructed Hu Xuan to modify their sidecar motorcycle into a dual-purpose vehicle for both land and snow.
It's not just about changing the appearance or adding a sled; it's an automatic deformable and retractable system, including both the sled and the tires. A folding canopy was also added to the truck bed and the motorcycle, so you won't be exposed to wind and snow in winter.
Furthermore, the powertrain has also been modified. The engine has been upgraded to be more powerful, faster, and more fuel-efficient.
They modified the car after they bought it; otherwise, people would always gossip about government property.
However, they didn't ride for very long before they arrived in the county, and then they gave the tricycle to Jiabao to use.
It's likely that someone noticed him while he was riding it and then reported it.
It's not that they didn't want to report it; one reason was that they felt it was unnecessary, and the other was that even if someone else reported it, no one could take the credit away from them.
After all, simply submitting a report is useless; you need to know how to modify it.
Like these researchers, if you ask them to disassemble those two or three sides of the tricycle, they might be able to put it back together exactly as it was, but it would be very difficult to replicate it.
Not only were some of the parts polished by robots in the space by Xiao Yun, making them more precise, but the car also didn't transform manually; it did so automatically.
One-click transformation sounds simple, but it's actually difficult to manufacture, especially with current technology, as it requires a central computer control system.
The computer technology at that time was, as you can imagine, useless even if they were to disassemble it piece by piece. They didn't have the knowledge in that area and simply couldn't understand the structural principles.
This is also why Hu Xuan was called over. As for Xiao Yun, who came with him, they assumed that the old leader had already made things clear that Xiao Yun was also a participant in the modification, so they didn't ask any further questions. It can only be said that it was a lucky accident.
