Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot! Chapter 57: They Can’t Speak Out
The scene seed frozen.
Ye Tong stood there in shock.
The man across from her looked bewildered, staring down at his waist, reaching to touch, it was all red.
"Ah—"
A scream like a slaughtered pig rang out instantly, and Er Ye raised his trembling hands: "Have rcy, ma’am."
Ye Tong’s hands trembled, her brain seed to have stopped working, completely blank, it took a while for her to recover, frightened enough to drop the weapon, "No... it’s not..."
"Pick it up!" A stern voice commanded.
Ye Tong’s body shook, and she looked up at the sound, seeing Ji Ning standing on a rooftop, arms crossed, gazing at her coldly.
Ye Tong reflexively squatted down to pick up the weapon, holding it tremblingly.
"Never drop the weapon you’re carrying at any ti, it’s your second life!"
"Ning... Ning... Sister Ning..."
"Co out, it’s ti to go." Ji Ning leapt down from the roof, as graceful as jumping down a low step.
With her words, a woman erged from a nearby rooftop.
Her hair was a bit disheveled, her delicate face slightly bruised, her clothes were torn and dirty-looking, but her ntal state appeared fine.
"My legs are numb, I can’t get down..."
The woman looked embarrassed, even glancing back at her own legs.
Ji Ning looked at Ye Tong and pointed to the roof, "Carry her down."
"Huh?" Ye Tong’s mind was sowhat dazed at the mont, but her body obediently moved toward that house.
All the houses here had flat roofs; there was a ladder by the wall to get onto the roof.
Once the two safely landed, the woman bowed deeply to Ye Tong, "Thank you for coming back to save . Thank you..."
The cold girl told her that if it weren’t for the girl recognizing her car, they wouldn’t have returned so quickly to rescue her.
Ye Tong was a bit at a loss, looking up at Ji Ning, seeing her still cold-faced, hurriedly helped the woman up, "No, it’s Sister Ning..."
"If it weren’t for your tily arrival, I might have been... violated now..." As the woman spoke, her voice turned tearful, and tears started streaming down uncontrollably.
Watching her cry, Ye Tong empathized, her eyes reddening, she comforted her with a hand on her shoulder, "It’s okay now, it’s all over."
While the two were comforting each other, all the n living here were already obediently standing in front of a row of houses, including a few children.
And in front of them stood a seemingly slender figure.
"n stand on the left, won and children stand on the right."
Ji Ning stood coldly with her hands behind her.
The group quickly separated and stood correctly, with the children following the won, looking at her timidly.
Because at her feet lay a man, half-dead, with blood spreading everywhere.
Though not life-threatening, his face was paper-white, obviously from excessive blood loss.
In the right line, a woman with slightly reddened eyes gazed intently at the man on the ground, her eyes complex.
This man was the one who initially abducted her and is also her child’s father.
Ji Ning glanced over the won here; most showed expressions of numbness, with no light in their eyes.
"Who among you were kidnapped?" Ji Ning asked.
Only three young girls raised their hands; the other won had no reaction.
"Those who want to leave, follow ."
The three girls moved forward without hesitation, but the other won remained unresponsive.
Ji Ning’s patience was limited; she asked again, "Who else wants to go?"
This ti, a woman with a child timidly approached, pulling her child along, "Can I take my child with ?"
Ji Ning nodded slightly.
The woman quickly brought her child over, her face showing a sense of release.
Seeing this, Ye Tong beca very anxious, shouting, "Why aren’t you leaving? We can take you out to find your families; you’ll never have to be coerced by these beasts again."
Yet these won still remained silent, numbly holding their children, looking to the ground.
Finally, the woman who brought her child out revealed the truth, "We were all kidnapped here, and the children were born with these beasts. How can we go out and face our forr families? We’ll only be their stain. It’s better for them to think we’re dead than to go out and be criticized, putting them to sha. If possible, I don’t want to leave either; it’s just that my little girl is sick. I can’t let her rot here like ..."
Ye Tong’s tightly clenched fists gradually loosened, feeling extre heartache yet helpless.
When Ji Ning was about to take this group of traffickers away, so won ca forward to obstruct, even defending these people, claiming to be their wives and that there was no abduction, asking to let them go.
This greatly infuriated Ye Tong and the rescued won.
In the end, Ji Ning used force to suppress them, successfully taking all the traffickers away from the hands of these frenzied won.
There were a total of 12 traffickers, just enough to fit into their small truck for a one-ti transport.
To avoid revealing they possessed controlled weapons to the police, the injured man was given "special care" by Ji Ning alone in the front row.
Ye Tong didn’t know what Ji Ning did, only hearing the pig-like screams from the man inside the truck.
This also made the traffickers inside the truck sit upright, not daring to have any ulterior thoughts.
Approaching the city, Ji Ning looked at the road ahead and suddenly murmured, "Forget."
It was like ti suddenly stopped; the state of the people in the car paused for a mont, and when they moved again, their eyes seed sowhat unfamiliar.
When a truck full of people and the victims showed up at the police station at the sa ti, it alerted all the officers, from the leaders to the clerks.
Several won and a child first stepped down from the truck.
Timidly saying, "We are here to report..."
***
On the other side, Ji Ning and Ye Tong continued on the road in a brand-new luxury car.
"Sister Ning, do you think they really won’t ntion our possession of controlled weapons?"
As long as the rescued won don’t speak recklessly, even if the kidnappers say they carried weapons, there is no evidence.
The premise for their rescue was that they wouldn’t speak recklessly. Although they all swore not to betray, Ye Tong was still uneasy, twisting her body nervously on the leather seat.
Ji Ning glanced at her, opened the car window, "They won’t, they can’t say it. If you keep moving, you’ll have to get out."
Ye Tong imdiately sat up straight, not daring to move again.
She thought Ji Ning ant "can’t say" as in the won wouldn’t betray them, didn’t realize it ant truly being unable to speak.
During police interrogation, they found these victims rembered their abduction details clearly, but when it ca to those who saved them, their mories were chaotic.
Except for that delicate-looking woman who spoke clearly and logically, most other won exhibited little sense.
Many details were ambiguously recounted, even the identity of their savior described confusingly, either they didn’t see clearly or didn’t rember.
Similarly for the traffickers, among them was a man severely injured, with deep wounds resembling knife cuts, yet vaguely showing so burn marks. But he insisted he was stabbed and that the knife had only his fingerprints.
When asked who stabbed him, his mory was fuzzy, sotis insisting he did it, sotis saying it was a woman’s accidental injury, as if suffering amnesia.
This frustrated the police greatly.
Also made them suspect the rescuer might be a superpower user.
They now just wonder what the superpower user’s identity might be?
If currently executing a mission, they should not interfere too much.
After weighing the pros and cons, the bureau chief personally made a phone call.
"Old leader, we’ve got a case involving a superpower user. Please advise!"
