After Being Reborn, I Tortured The Vicious Sister-in-law - Chapter 177

Chapter 177: Human Traffickers

Hong Si was still fine when he left the antique shop. He should have been fine when he came to the village. Why was Hong Si blind when he saw him?

“Sir, how was Hong Si’s body when you saw him go blind?” Su Meng asked.

The old man thought for a moment. “His eyes may not be working, but his body is still fine.”

After hearing the old man’s words, Su Meng realized that this was indeed the case.

This meant that when Hong Si had just lost his sight, he was still free. The reason why he was trapped and prevented others from seeing him was because his body was getting weaker and weaker.

She thought for a moment and asked, “Sir, how much do you know about Hong Si? Can you tell me everything? The village chief said that he was an orphan and that his background was very pitiful.”

“Hong Si?” the old man muttered in a low voice. He looked troubled, as if he did not want to say anything.

“Sir, if you don’t know, then forget it. We are going to leave with Hong Si.” Su Meng pretended to open the car door, but the old man stopped her as soon as her hand touched it.

The old man sighed and said, “Sigh, I can say it, but you can’t tell others that I said it.”

“Don’t worry, it definitely won’t happen.” Su Meng promised, and Shen Jian and Lin Ai also promised at the same time.

Only then did the old man start to say, “The Village Chief actually said that he was an orphan? Ha, he really knows how to lie. Hong Si is not an orphan. He was abducted and sold to this village by human traffickers.”

“When Hong Si first came, he was fair and tender, and he was wearing pink clothes. The human traffickers thought that he was a girl and stole him to sell him to the village idiot as a wife. Twenty years ago, when the internet was still underdeveloped, a person who was stolen was basically no different from a dead person. Even if there were family members looking for them, very few people would be able to find them.”

“The idiot’s family found out that Hong Si was a boy and not a girl, and he was still a little silly, so they abandoned him. The human trafficker found out that he had kidnapped a silly child, and no one wanted such a child. If they took him away, they wouldn’t be able to sell him for much money, and they might even lose money. They also abandoned him, leaving him to fend for himself in the village.”

“An old man saw that he was pitiful, so he took him in and raised him as his own child. But the old man’s health wasn’t good. After living with him for about ten years, he also fell ill and died. It was strange. Ever since the old man died, Hong Si seemed to have suddenly become enlightened. He suddenly became smarter and left the village with a feng shui master who was passing by.”

“The Village Chief didn’t let him leave, so this kid sneaked away. He left for many years. I don’t know why he suddenly came back. He was fine the day he came back, but he suddenly lost his sight. The Village Chief said that he would leave him behind to take care of him, but he didn’t let him leave the house. He also didn’t let anyone visit him.”

“Hehe, I watched the Village Chief grow up. Don’t I know his temperament? Locking Hong Si up is definitely not a good thing. This guy looks kind on the surface, but he’s actually a lot more wicked behind the scenes…”

The more the old man talked, the more excited he became. In the end, he kept on talking and said a bunch of other things, but Su Meng was not interested in anything else. She only cared about Hong Si’s matters.

The Village Chief’s behavior was already illegal. If she guessed correctly, the kidnapping of Hong Si back then must have had something to do with the Village Chief.

Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that Hong Si’s birth characters were exactly the same as what the feng shui master said?

Other things were fine, but Su Meng was determined not to tolerate the kidnapping of a child.

If she were to put herself in the other person’s shoes, how desperate would the parents of the stolen child be at that time?

However, she did not want to take matters into her own hands. Instead, she should first ask Hong Si for his opinion. If Hong Si felt that it was appropriate to call the police, then she would help find someone to investigate the past.

After the old man finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much. He had said a lot of things that he should not have said. He had repeatedly asked Su Meng and the other two to promise him that they could not tell anyone else.

It was not until Su Meng swore to the heavens that the old man promised not to tell anyone that the old man was relieved and left.

After he left, Su Meng went to the Village Chief’s house again. At this moment, Hong Si was sitting on a stone block in front of the Village Chief’s house, basking in the sun.

“Brother Hong, it’s alright. Let’s go home.” Su Meng went over to help Hong Si up. She did not expect Shen Jian and Lin Ai to be faster. The two of them immediately ran to the left and right to help Hong Si up.

“Sorry, I…”

“Let’s get in the car first. We can talk after we leave the village,” Su Meng urged.

Everything had been settled. Su Meng drove out of the village. In the car, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
