Xia Yu said: "You stay up there and I'll go down and rescue them."

Hua Rendong said, "Why don't we get the police? There are so many people down there, and it's hard for many of them to move. How long will it take you to carry them all up one by one?"

Xia Yu shook his head. "No, I just checked. The woman from the supply and marketing cooperative is definitely in the same group with these people, as well as the old lady. We are unfamiliar with this place, and we cannot guarantee who these people have as accomplices. Is there anyone in our group who is in cahoots with them? Will the people who come then be ours? Or theirs?

We can't keep investigating the case here. If they are the ones who come to investigate, we don't know what will happen to them once we leave. I think it's best to let the police in other places handle this case. I called to have people mobilized before coming here, and soon people nearby will rush over following the signs I left."

I didn't expect that Xia Yu had accomplished so many things in such a short period of time. Look at his smart brain and calm management skills. Otherwise, how can he be called a leader?

Xia Yu went down the tunnel to the cellar and soon heard Xia Yu's voice: "I'm here to save you. I'll untie you now. Don't cry."

There was silence below. Just when Hua Rendong wanted to use her special ability to explore further, she heard Xia Yu calling out, "Hua'er, the person has fainted. You should get him up."

Hua Honeysuckle rolled his eyes. Did he go down there just to make someone faint?

A seed was thrown into the cellar. After a crackling sound of rapid plant growth, the people under the cellar were swept up one by one. The last one to be swept up was Xia Yu.

Xia Yu was speechless, "I can climb up by myself."

Hua Jindong put everyone on the kang and removed his supernatural power and said, "Why bother?"

After Xia Yu stared at the faces of those women for a while, he pointed at a thin, dry woman who looked more vicissitudes than the others and said, "This person is suspicious. Just now when I said I came to rescue them, her eyes were rolling around. Feel around to see if there is any clue on her."

Hua Honeysuckle looked at everyone. From the paleness on their faces that was obviously caused by hunger and the strange smell on their bodies, it seemed that they had been in the cellar for a long time. Although the thin woman's complexion looked most like malnutrition, she was still relatively clean.

Only then did I understand that there was a hidden meaning behind his knocking people out.

Hua Rendong first untied the ropes tied on everyone, and then touched the woman from head to toe but did not find anything suspicious. However, she did not doubt Xia Yu's guess, but just paid more attention to this woman.

Pretending to be a kidnapped woman and hiding among a group of kidnapped women and children, if he was not an undercover agent who wanted to rescue these people, he must have an ulterior motive.

Then he took out the bottle of antidote that Jasmine had given him earlier and placed it in front of everyone's nose. After a while, everyone lying on the kang slowly woke up.

When the others woke up, there was fear and confusion in their eyes, but the thin woman had a look of alertness on her face. When she saw that she was on the ground and there were two strangers, a man and a woman, standing in front of her, she flattened her mouth and let out an "ow".

Hua Honeysuckle quickly stuffed a smelly rag into her mouth, stopping her crying abruptly.

Xia Yuze crossed his arms and stared at the woman, his brows twisted into a knot, but the obvious murderous intent in his eyes seemed to be saying: You are really not a good person, just kill me!

At this time, it was Hua Rendong's turn to help the leader solve the problem. He held down the woman who was about to take the rag out of her mouth and said to the others who were already trembling with fear: "Do you remember what my leader said to you just now? There are kidnappers outside. If you don't want everyone to be arrested together, don't make a sound. Otherwise, they will lure their people in, and no one will be able to escape."

The women and children who were about to cry before they realized what the man said to them before he fainted, only then did they remember that the two men in front of them should have come to save them.

The women and children nodded hurriedly. Someone asked, "Who are you? Are you the police?"

Hua Rendong looked at the woman and felt that although there was fear in her eyes, her eyes were bright, as if she was glad that she was saved. She smiled and said, "Yes, we are the police, but not from Chengzhuang County. We were sent by the province to catch these kidnappers."

When the women and children heard Hua Rendong say that she was a public security officer and came for them, they all showed joy and looked at Hua Rendong with trust in their eyes, but even if they shed tears of excitement, they did it silently.

Someone knelt down and was about to kowtow, but Hua Rendong stopped him, "Don't get excited yet. The kidnappers haven't been caught yet. We can't leave now, but you have to believe that everyone is safe. We will protect everyone's safety."

The women and children nodded hurriedly, "Thank you, Public Security Comrades, thank you for coming to rescue us."

Hua Honeysuckle smiled and comforted: "This is what we should do."

When he felt the woman he was holding struggle, he pressed a little harder.

A woman bravely asked: "Comrade Public Security, what happened to Liu Feng? Why are you holding her down and not letting her move?"

Hua Rendong looked down at the woman under his command. It turned out that her name was Liu Feng. She put on a distressed expression on her face, "Didn't I tell you not to cry or make a fuss because the kidnappers haven't been caught yet? But she cried as soon as she woke up. I even suspected that she was going to tip off the kidnappers."

The women looked at each other, and there was suspicion in their eyes when they looked at Liu Feng.

The woman who had asked Honeysuckle the question earlier hesitated and said, "That shouldn't be the case. I'm from the Xiahegou Brigade, and she's an educated youth from our brigade. She's been in the brigade for more than two years. We came to the county to buy things together the other day, and then she was kidnapped. I heard from those kidnappers that they're going to take us out and sell us tomorrow. If she was in cahoots with the kidnappers, how could she be imprisoned with us?"

Hua Rendong looked at Liu Feng carefully again. This woman looked to be in her thirties. She didn't expect that she was an educated youth who had only been working in the countryside for two years. It was true that working in the fields in the wind and sun all year round would make people look old.

Liu Feng originally had no strength to struggle, but after hearing the woman's words she struggled hard again, as if to express her injustice.

Hua Rendong and Xia Yu looked at each other and said to Liu Feng, "Since you are not one of the kidnappers, I will let you go. But you are not allowed to cry or I will tie you up and throw you into the cellar."

Liu Feng nodded immediately after hearing this, and Hua Rendong slowly released the hand that was pressing on her and pulled the rag out of her mouth.

This time Liu Feng really did not cry or shout anymore, but just shrank into the corner and cried silently, which made Hua Rendong and Xia Yu wonder if they had wronged a good person.

Although Xia Yu made a phone call and left a mark, he didn't know how long it would take for the people to arrive. These women and children looked sallow, and it was obvious that they had not eaten for a long time. Some of them looked like they were dying.
