Chapter 33 Inquiring about the Shen Family
Chapter 33 Inquiring about the Shen Family
Anqi Town, in Shuize Lane.
A somewhat thin figure walked carefully in the alley, constantly observing the movements around him. Only after making sure it was safe did he knock on the door of a courtyard deep in the alley.
"Bang, bang, bang—bang!"
After three consecutive knocks, three long and one short, the gate of the yard finally opened and a thin figure rushed in nimbly.
The yard had been abandoned for a long time and was overgrown with weeds. After the little man entered the door, he went straight to the west wing. After entering, his knees went weak and he knelt on the floor.
"Boss, I've been following him for a few days. That policeman surnamed Shen is never alone. There are other policemen around him during the day, and he lives in the police station dormitory at night. I really can't find the opportunity to take action." The short man shrank his neck, his voice trembling.
The west wing had obviously been carefully cleaned, unlike the dilapidated outside. Not only was it very clean, but there were even fresh snacks and tea on the coffee table above the soft couch.
"This... is the result of your few days of inquiries?"
"Oh, Sanlangzi, you know that I never keep useless people here!" A slender figure leaned on the couch, admiring her freshly painted nail polish and spoke casually.
The little man knelt in the middle of the room and trembled violently, as if he was in extreme fear: "Boss! Boss! I really tried my best. If you give me a few more days, I will definitely find an opportunity!!"
"Come here, I remember there is a dry well in this yard, let him go and find out its depth."
As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man at the door of the room walked in, covered the little man's mouth and dragged him out.
"Wu... Wuu... Boss, boss, please give me another chance, I... I have some news!" The little guy struggled frantically, his face covered with tears and snot.
"Wait, let him talk."
The little man spoke quickly, fearing he would be dragged away again in the next second. "That Shen guy's home is in Wanyang Village. Although he can hide in the dormitory, there must be someone at his home. We can go get his family before we leave!"
"Somebody come!"
"Boss! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
"Take it to the east wing and check it out. It's not completely ruined yet..."
"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss!"
……
……
Wang Pan'er was walking quickly on the way back to the village. Today, the state-owned restaurant was serving steamed pork with rice flour. She had finally managed to grab a portion and had to quickly deliver it to Duan Zhiqing.
Wang Pan'er felt very happy. Ever since they expressed their feelings to each other last time, Duan Zhiqing had obviously become closer to her. Wang Pan'er seemed to see the good days of the second half of her life beckoning to her.
As we were approaching the entrance of Wanyang Village, we suddenly heard a cry for help from the roadside.
"Girl! Girl! I twisted my ankle, can you help me?"
I saw a woman in coarse clothes sitting in a dry ditch by the roadside, covering her feet and looking up with longing. The ditch had a certain slope on both sides, and the woman looked like she had accidentally rolled down.
Wang Pan'er was only thinking about meeting her lover, and didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, so she continued walking forward.
"Sister, please help me! I'll pay you!"
For the sake of money, Wang Paner turned back, put the basket aside, pulled out two vines from the roadside, braided them into a rope, and then threw the rope down.
The woman grabbed the rope and slowly climbed up using her hands and feet. Because of her foot injury, she climbed very slowly. Halfway up, Wang Paner reached out and grabbed the woman's clothes and finally pulled her up.
"Give me the money quickly!" Wang Paner immediately stretched out her hand to the woman.
"Thank you so much, sister! If it weren't for you, I would have to spend the night in this ditch."
"Stop talking nonsense and give me the money quickly. You said it yourself." Wang Pan'er interrupted the woman impatiently.
"Sister, don't worry, I will definitely give you the money. I want to ask you about Shen Yuanjia's family situation. To be honest, my sister has a crush on him. I originally wanted to go to the Shen family to take a look, but seeing how I am now, I can only ask you."
When Wang Pan'er heard that he was asking about the Shen family, she looked over with some suspicion. Is Shen Yuanjia so popular?
Unexpectedly, after taking a closer look, Wang Pan'er couldn't help but take a step back.
This woman! She's a wanted criminal!
In her previous life, she had seen this woman on TV. This woman named Jing Ying was involved in a very serious case. The trafficking gang under her was spread all over China, and tens of thousands of children had been trafficked over the past few decades.
When she was arrested, people were surprised that the evil human trafficker leader was actually a delicate woman. There were many reports about this at the time, so Wang Pan'er had a deep impression of Jing Ying.
Although this face is younger than the one on TV in the previous life, you can still tell that it is Jing Ying!
Oh right! Nails!
Wang Paner shifted her gaze to the woman's hand, her pupils suddenly shrank, and the bright red nail polish came into view. Wang Paner felt her legs go weak.
In the reports of my previous life, it was written that an important characteristic of Jing Ying was that she always wore bright red nail polish.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Jing Ying looked over with some confusion, which made Wang Pan'er shudder.
"No... nothing, I have something to do, I'll leave first." Wang Pan'er grabbed the basket and was about to leave when someone grabbed her sleeve.
"Sister, don't leave in a hurry. I haven't given you the money yet. Tell me about the Shen family!"
Wang Pan'er pretended to be calm. According to the report, Jing Ying was already the leader of the human trafficking group at that time, so she was asking about the Shen family not to find someone for her sister.
"Girl? Are you okay?" Jing Ying became a little suspicious when she saw Wang Pan'er's reaction. Although she was very confident in her disguise, it was always a good thing to be careful.
Wang Pan'er controlled her trembling hands and turned around calmly: "I'm telling you it's no problem. How much can you give me? I just pulled you out."
"Sister, don't worry, I will definitely not treat you unfairly." Jing Ying took out a big unity note and stuffed it into Wang Paner's hand.
"The Shen family lives in the third house at the east end of the village. They have..."
……
……
Wang Pan'er walked quickly all the way until she got home and locked herself in the room. Then she breathed a sigh of relief. The cold sweat on her back had soaked through her clothes, and the big unity she was holding in her hand had wrinkled into a ball because she had squeezed too hard.
She had been afraid that she would not be able to come back, but she did not expect that after she told her about the situation of the Shen family, Jing Ying did not make things difficult for her.
Wang Pan'er felt a little uneasy. She always felt that Jing Ying's inquiry about the Shen family's situation was not simple. However, at this time in her previous life, she had not heard of any incident with the Shen family, so Wang Pan'er was not too sure.
Ignoring her inner uneasiness, Wang Pan'er tried hard to forget what had just happened. Anyway, no one knew that it was she who provided the information to Jing Ying. If Jing Ying could really cause some trouble for the Shen family, it would be a great thing!
It would be even better if we could get rid of Shen Anan at the same time!
After adjusting her mood, Wang Pan'er was thinking about Duan Hongzhe and planned to go to the educated youth camp to deliver him some steamed pork with rice flour. Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Wang Xiaobao squatting in front of the basket she had just placed at the door.
The lunch box containing steamed pork with rice flour in the basket had been opened, and half of the meat inside had been eaten. Wang Xiaobao was grabbing two pieces of meat with his hands and stuffing them into his mouth, smacking his lips as he ate.
"Wang Xiaobao! What are you doing!" Wang Pan'er was furious. The supply of steamed pork with rice flour was already limited today, and she only managed to grab one portion. She was reluctant to eat even a single piece herself. She didn't expect that Wang Xiaobao would waste it all if she didn't keep an eye on him.
"Eat meat! Mom said that all the meat in the house is mine. You money-losing guys don't deserve to eat it!" Wang Xiaobao said proudly, and stuffed two more pieces of meat into his mouth.
Wang Pan'er felt a surge of anger rushing into her head. All the resentment from two lifetimes gathered together, making her grit her teeth in hatred. She picked up a piece of firewood piled next to the yard and swung it at Wang Xiaobao.
"Mom, mom, the money-loser has gone crazy!" Wang Xiaobao saw Wang Pan'er picked up the stick and ran out while shouting, and threw the lunch box at her.
"Wang Xiaobao! Come back here! You're dead!"
All the soup in the lunch box stuck to Wang Paner's body, and some even splashed directly onto her face. She stood there and took a few deep breaths, but still couldn't help but tear up.
