On the way to Huangsha City, Mo Mo and his friends met Xiaokui and his grandson, who were selling tofu pudding and tea.

At first, Mo Mo and the others didn't take the "Huangsha City cannibalism incident" mentioned by Xiaokui's grandfather seriously. They just thought it was a little story heard from others to scare children.

As soon as they entered the city, Xiao Kui took them to the tailor shop to change into ancient costumes, but they disappeared. Mo Mo then began to take this "cannibalism incident" seriously.

"Grandpa Luo, I'm sorry. Xiaokui went missing after we went out. Don't worry, we will definitely bring Xiaokui back to you!" Mo Mo promised Xiaokui's grandfather.

After reporting the truth to Xiaokui's grandfather, Mo Mo and Zhao Wenting prepared to search and investigate the "cannibalism" incident in the city.

"I'm worried about you letting Chu Xin be the bait alone, so I want to go too."

Since Zhao Wenting showed up, many things are no longer one-sided. Mo Mo makes decisions on her own, and Yan Mu only listens to Zhao Wenting's arrangements. Mo Mo continued to add: "And one more person means one more chance of winning."

Zhao Wenting looked at her expectant face and was reluctant to refuse.

"Then you two can serve as bait, and we'll be responsible for outflanking and capturing the rest."

Seeing Zhao Wenting give in, Mo Mo secretly gestured "Yeah" to Liang Chuxin who was standing beside him.

After investigation, Zhao Wenting chose a pavilion by the lake. There was a small red clay stove on the table, warming a pot of wine that gave off a faint aroma. There were also several plates of exquisite pastries on the table. Liang Chuxin and Mo Mo sat inside drinking and chatting.

"What do you think? Could it be a man-eating beast that did this? Could Xiaokui have really been eaten?" Liang Chuxin speculated while pouring wine.

"No, I checked the nearby streets and there was no sign of any beasts. Also, there was no fresh blood at the scene. I think this is more like someone being kidnapped."

"Can you two speak a little more quietly? Are you hoping that people will know we are setting a trap? Acting needs to be sincere!" Yan Mu, who was hiding on the beam of the pavilion, complained.

Liang Chuxin rolled her eyes, pointed at the white dots on the table and said, "Your sincerity is to drop all the pastry crumbs on the table?"

There was a breeze blowing, and the thin curtains swayed slightly in the wind.

"Okay, everyone, focus."

Mo Mo looked around but couldn't find any trace of his master. He only saw four supernatural police officers disguised as servants standing at the intersection. He didn't know where he was hiding.

"Hoo-! Hoo-!"

The wind became stronger, and the curtains around the pavilion were blown into various shapes. Leaves and sand were blown up continuously. Mo Mo and Liang Chuxin squinted their eyes and used their hands to block the wind.

"The wind doesn't feel right. Are you ready?" Mo Mo spoke to Liang Chuxin in a low and quick voice.

Then she jumped onto the stool with her feet touching the ground. When she saw a cloud of black mist rushing out from behind Liang Chuxin, Mo Mo kicked it without hesitation, but it seemed like she kicked in the air and she fell on the table.

The cakes on the table were scattered all over the place with a clang of noise, and several plates were broken.

Liang Chuxin hurriedly helped Mo Mo up: "How is it? Are you hurt?"

Mo Mo had just sat up from the table when she fell to the ground with a "bang". Liang Chuxin and Yan Mu, who had just jumped down, saw that something was holding her feet.

"Right leg!" Mo Mo shouted.

Yan Mu immediately threw a flying kick in that direction, but he hit the air.

"No! This thing is like air, it has no substance." Liang Chuxin said nervously, bending down to help Mo Mo up, but failed again.

Just when Mo Mo was about to be dragged away by this mysterious force, Zhao Wenting appeared and reached out to grab Mo Mo's hand.

The other person's strength was too great, so he quickly took a step forward and hugged her tightly.

The two of them looked at each other face to face. Mo Mo looked a little painful under the huge pulling force. She called him, "Master-father!"

"Don't be afraid, I'm holding you!" Zhao Wenting hugged her tightly and did not forget to comfort her. But in the current situation, he had no time to do anything except hug her.

Liang Chuxin and Yan Mu also immediately stepped forward to help pull the people. However, a cloud of black mist emerged from the side and rushed towards Zhao Wenting and the others. The three people fell to one side under the huge impact.

Mo Mo finally disappeared into the black mist that was holding her.

"What should we do? Mo Mo has been captured, and the key is that we don't even know who he is." Liang Chuxin got up from the ground with a worried look on his face.

"I have put fluorescent butterfly powder on each of you. It seems that we can only wait until night to follow the trail to look for clues." Zhao Wenting's face became cold.

After hearing this, Yan Mu and Liang Chuxin looked at each other with strange expressions, because they didn't know when he had smeared the fluorescent butterfly powder on them.

[Now it’s my turn to be locked up in the dungeon. ]

Mo Mo sat in the dark, dimly lit dungeon. After looking around, she stood up and looked away.

After seeing other girls who were also detained, Mo Mo finally confirmed his inner guess: there was no such thing as "cannibalism" incident, it was just another case of human trafficking.

[Is this incident similar to the one about the Rat Immortal? ]

Mo Mo pondered secretly in his heart.

But it was dark soon, and when Zhao Wenting and his men broke in, Mo Mo was actually sitting there calmly and practicing. Seeing that Mo Mo was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tell me or not? Do you know what's in this bowl? It's a leech. If I feed it into your stomach, it will suck every drop of blood out of your body and you will die suddenly."

Yan Mu and his men left behind a man to guard the dungeon. At this moment, the supernatural police were using Mo Mo's leeches to force a confession.

"Tell me, tell me! I'll tell you everything I know!" The man whose face was bruised and swollen was shaking with trembling legs. "It's Xiaoyao Pavilion. They...they only accept women. We regularly...regularly send a batch of new ones over."

"Anything else?"

"No more, no more, that's all I know, please spare me, I'm just a guard. I really don't know anything else." The man's messy hair shook like a rattle.

"Then let me ask you, what exactly is this Xiaoyao Pavilion you are talking about?" Yan Mu walked closer to the man and asked.

"It's... a brothel. It's the most popular brothel in the entire Huangsha City."

Mo Mo and Liang Chuxin widened their eyes after hearing this.

"Okay, take him down and find someone to watch him." Yan Mu saw that he couldn't get anything out of this man, so he had someone take him away.

"Why would a brothel accept a girl as young as Xiaokui?" Liang Chuxin was puzzled.

"Maybe... they plan to train them from a young age? I've seen it in a storybook. There's a word called 'child prostitute', which refers to underage people who do this kind of work." Mo Mo shrank his neck and spoke in a low voice.

"Ah?" Liang Chuxin was shocked!

Mo Mo looked up and met Zhao Wenting's cold and deep eyes. He said coldly: "It seems that you know a lot."

"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Mo Mo immediately denied it.

"Isn't this the point? The point is that we didn't see Xiaokui here. We should go to Xiaoyao Pavilion as soon as possible." His brain suddenly cleared up, and Mo Mo stood up from the bench and successfully changed the subject.

"Puff!" Liang Chuxin suddenly laughed as she suddenly thought of something, "No wonder they arrested you but not me, it turns out they want to send you to a place like this."

Hearing the meaning behind Liang Chuxin's words, Mo Mo angrily pulled off her wig, "Isn't it because you are wearing such an ugly wig? What are you thinking about?"

"Don't be angry. What I meant by that was to praise your beauty. Why are you still unhappy?"

……

Yan Mu ignored the fight between the two girls, came to stand behind Zhao Wenting, and asked: "So what should we do next to plan how to enter Xiaoyao Pavilion?"

"We are not the problem, it's mainly those two." Zhao Wenting pointed at Mo Mo and Liang Chuxin.

"I can!" Mo Mo stopped playing around immediately after hearing what Zhao Wenting said, "We can both dress up as men."
