PFC Chapter 142 Jumping off the train
Chapter 142 Jumping off the train
"Mom, why did Uncle Chen Hai go out?"
After Shen Changle sat down, she kept looking out the window and didn't notice what was happening inside the carriage. However, Chen Hai's movements as he put his things down before getting off the train were a bit loud, so the child heard it.
"Uncle Chen Hai went to catch the bad guys."
"Catch bad guys? Are there bad guys on the train?"
"Yes, just now another bad uncle snatched the aunt's child from across the street."
At this moment, the flight attendant also arrived. The mother was explaining the situation to the flight attendant, who then hurriedly contacted the police near the station.
An Ning was somewhat worried.
The man looked like a repeat offender, and his eyes were very cold. Anning even suspected that he had killed someone.
Although Chen Hai said she was very skilled, if you're not careful, you could still get hurt when facing someone who lives on the edge of a knife.
Moreover, with so many people at the station, even though some had already boarded the train, the area below was still extremely crowded.
The man disappeared without a trace after entering the crowd, but Chen Hai, whether he saw him or not, insisted on following him in.
Since the other party dared to snatch the child in broad daylight, there must be someone waiting for him down there. If Chen Hai happened to run into the person waiting for him, she didn't even want to think what would happen.
But she still has children to take care of and can't go to help. She can only hope that the police can arrive quickly and catch the trafficker before the train departs.
Time passed second by second, and the mother on the other side had lost the will to stay on the train and had already gotten off with the conductor, but Chen Hai still hadn't returned.
The passengers in the carriage were still discussing the man who snatched the child. From their conversations, Anning learned that child snatching on the street was not uncommon in this day and age, especially at train stations, where such incidents occurred quite frequently.
If the child is on a train, traffickers usually snatch the child just before the train is about to depart, then hand him to someone waiting for him through the window, and then jump out the window to escape. This way, people on the train can hardly contact those off the train immediately, and once they leave the station, no one knows where they go.
There are also those who, while waiting for a bus, simply grab a person's luggage and children and run away. Some people are slow to react, and by the time the person is gone, they don't even realize their belongings are missing.
Unlike later generations, this era was not filled with cameras everywhere, and even communication was inconvenient. These people committed crimes in various places, and even if you knew who they were, it was very difficult to catch them.
The ship's horn sounded, but Chen Hai still hadn't returned, and An Ning's heart sank to the bottom.
"The train is about to depart and the doors are about to close. Please remain seated and do not move around," the train attendant reminded the passengers.
After being reminded two or three times, the doors closed and the train began to move slowly.
"Mom, is Uncle Chen Hai not coming back?" Shen Changle grabbed Anning's sleeve and asked pitifully, "Is he lost?"
"How could that be? Uncle Chen Hai is an adult, he won't get lost. He was just delayed by something. We'll wait for him there after we arrive at the station, and he'll come to find us soon."
"But……"
Before Shen Changle could finish speaking, she heard passengers on the platform start pointing and whispering outside, which made both mother and daughter look in that direction.
A person was seen running quickly after the train below the platform, even faster than the train itself, and soon arrived at their carriage.
The person who arrived was Chen Hai.
"I go!"
Amid the passengers' gasps, Chen Hai leaped up, grabbed something, and hung outside the train window.
Song Wenyuan knocked on the window from the outside: "Comrade, could you please open the window and let me in?"
He was dressed in military uniform, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and had a dignified appearance. Anyone who saw him couldn't help but feel a sense of trust.
Moreover, everyone still vividly remembered the incident of the child being snatched, and some people immediately thought of him: "I remember now, this PLA comrade was the one who chased down the person who snatched the child. Quickly open the window for him and let him in."
"Okay, okay, I'll open the window right away."
The person sitting by the window quickly opened the window and made room for him. Song Wenyuan grabbed the windowsill and with a slight effort, he straightened his back and lightly jumped into the train.
"Thank you."
He thanked the people around him, glanced left and right, spotted An Ning, strode towards her, and gave her a bright smile.
"I am back!"
"If you can't catch it, fine, but the train has already started moving. Why do such a dangerous thing? What if you lose your grip?" Anning scolded.
"Oh, it's alright. The car is moving very slowly. There's a pole outside; there's no way you can't grab it."
Someone nearby even spoke up for him: "Hey, young lady, your man is really good at fighting! You should encourage him when he does good deeds, not criticize him!"
An Ning was about to speak when Song Wenyuan quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, you have to encourage me, not criticize me... Ouch!"
Anning couldn't help but pinch the soft flesh on his waist hard, but then changed the subject.
"Did you get the child back?"
Chen Hai returned, but his mother, who was sitting next to him, did not.
"That bastard has short legs, so he didn't run very far. He just used his short stature to weave in and out of the crowd, as slippery as an eel. Later, I saw the people who were there to meet him, so I went up and pinned them both down. It took quite a while for the police to come and hand them over. Those two were pretty strong, and I didn't trust them to be handed over to anyone else, otherwise I wouldn't have had to chase after the car!"
When Song Wenyuan told them that the human traffickers had been caught and the child had been brought back, the people around him praised him. Even the train attendants were drawn to them and poured the child a glass of juice.
They had obviously also received news that the human traffickers had been arrested.
"Comrade PLA soldier, there are so many people on the platform, how did you find them?" someone asked, voicing their doubts.
The two ran off the car one after the other. The person in front quickly disappeared, but Song Wenyuan accurately caught up with him.
"Well... you'd know if you went back there too."
"Huh?" The man was taken aback at first, then immediately retorted, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. I was watching from the car just now. That person was very short and disappeared into the crowd. Even though I ran down with him, I couldn't find him."
Anning was puzzled at first, but soon figured it out.
Song Wenyuan smiled slightly: "That child has been crying. Just follow the sound of crying and you'll find him."
The person who asked the question was stunned on the spot, and their face turned as red as a liver color.
