My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne
Chapter 158: You stinky beggar, get away from here!
Dieyi's expression changed drastically when she heard this. "What did you say?"
Chun Tao recalled the tragic death of Liu Si Niang, and her voice still trembled uncontrollably, "Liu Si Niang is dead too, and all those children are gone!"
Dieyi's body suddenly shook. "Liu Si Niang... is dead? Who did it? What happened in the backyard?"
"I don't know either." Chun Tao shook her head blankly. Thinking of the situation in the backyard, she said in a panic, "The fire in the backyard is so big! Miss, do we need to find a way to put it out?"
Before she could finish her words, Chi Yan started shouting loudly, hoping for chaos, "Fire! The backyard of Xunhuan Building is on fire! The fire is coming! Everyone, run for your lives!"
"Fire? Where's the fire?"
The guests were still immersed in the gentle comfort. When they heard someone say there was a fire, they looked around in confusion.
Some people simply ran out of the front hall and looked towards the backyard.
When they saw the raging fire spreading rapidly in their direction, they were shocked and frightened. They hurried back to warn everyone, "It's really on fire! There's a huge fire in the backyard! The fire is about to reach here! Hurry up! Everyone, get out of here!"
When the other guests heard this, how could they dare to stay any longer?
They pushed the beautiful women in their arms away and rushed to the gate of Xunhuan Building without hesitation, "It's on fire! Run!"
"The fire was burning fiercely. If we didn't leave now, we would be dead!"
"I saw it too. The fire burned the sky red! It was horrible!"
There were girls dancing on the stage, but when they saw the chaotic scene in the hall, they couldn't care less. They picked up their skirts and hurried down to the ground, "Sisters, get out and take shelter first!"
The guests in the hall rushed out, and Dieyi staggered. Fortunately, Chuntao grabbed her arm in time, "Miss, are you okay?"
Dieyi shook her head. Seeing that the customers were almost gone, she shouted anxiously, "Stop! You haven't paid yet! No one is allowed to leave!"
Among these guests, more than half came in to join in the excitement of the auction.
It's a rare opportunity to get something for free, who would care about her?
Even those who were walking out started running as soon as they heard they had to pay.
Everyone rushed to get out.
Chi Yan led the five children into the crowd, stirring up trouble as if to prevent the world from being in chaos. "Brothers, don't listen to this bitch! Let's go! We almost lost our lives in Xun Huan Lou, and you still want us to pay you money? The manager of Xun Huan Lou didn't go to put out the fire, and all he cares about is money. I'm afraid he's obsessed with money!"
Someone nearby immediately chimed in, "That's right! People in Xunhuanlou only care about money. Everyone, ignore her! Saving your life is the most important thing!"
Seeing that no one paid any attention to her, Dieyi thought for a moment, then immediately turned around and ordered Chuntao, "Where are the guards? And where are those thugs? Tell them to put out the fire!"
"Miss, I just went to the backyard and looked for them, but I didn't see a single guard. They might have been burned to death!"
Dieyi's expression changed drastically. "How could this happen? Who set the fire?"
"Miss, the guest at table ninety-nine is missing!"
Chun Tao discovered that table number 99 was empty and shouted anxiously, "And the five children he took away are gone too!"
Dieyi was distracted by the fire in the backyard. When she heard Chuntao's words, she quickly turned around and looked at table 99. None of the children who had originally gathered around the table were there, and only a table full of unfinished food and wine was left!
The guests at table ninety-nine were behaving very abnormally tonight. Not only did they deliberately drive up the prices of the items, they also used the fire to create chaos.
Maybe he was also responsible for the fire in the backyard!
Dieyi thought of this possibility and immediately said to Chuntao, "Gather everyone in Xunhuan Tower and put out the fire together! I'll go notify the master!"
Xunhuanlou has been going smoothly since its opening and has never encountered a situation like today.
The situation tonight is no longer something she can handle, she must report to her master!
After Chi Yan took the five children out of Xunhuan Tower, they headed towards the government office.
Chi Yan had never taken care of a child before. Seeing the five people behind him running out of breath, he slowed down his pace and said, "If you are tired, tell me and I will walk slower."
Several children shook their heads vigorously, "Brother, we're not tired! This is the way home. No matter how long it is, we can run all the way to the end!"
They have been away from home for too long, and at this moment they just want to be reunited with their loved ones as soon as possible.
Seeing how eager they were to return home, Chi Yan couldn't help but feel moved. "Okay! I will definitely take care of you and get you home safely!"
Half an hour later, Chi Yan arrived at the government office with five children.
Xuan Ming had already settled the others.
Seeing the children behind him, Xuan Ming immediately took them to the courtyard next to the government office, "You can rest here tonight, and I'll take you home after dawn!"
This time, a total of one hundred abducted children were rescued. They had to check the list of missing children overnight to find out who the children's parents were and where they lived, and then notify their relatives one by one to come to the government office to take them back.
By the time I had sorted out all the children's information, it was almost dawn.
Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue also did not sleep all night.
After they checked the child's information, Chu Xinyue was so tired that her eyelids were fighting.
The children's information on the table was divided into three piles. One pile was for children whose parents could be contacted immediately, one pile was for orphans without parents, and the other pile was for children whose parents had already moved away and could not contact any relatives.
She stood up from the table and stretched lazily, "Ali, let's go. I'll take you back to the palace."
Xue Youli's eyes fell on the three piles of documents on the table. "What do you think the government will do with these orphans?"
Chu Xinyue thought for a moment and replied, "Until a better place is found, they should be sent back to the Charity Bureau."
All the missing children have been found, except for some who were abducted.
There were also some children who were taken back by Murong Ye by having the girls in Xunhuan Tower and the security guards pretend to be a couple and go to the Charity Bureau to pick them up.
In Jiuzhou, the Salesian Bureau is an institution that specializes in adopting abandoned babies.
If a couple is unable to have children, or if the child dies in an accident, they can come to the Charity Bureau to adopt a child as long as they obtain a certificate from the government.
Xunhuanlou would always pick out good-looking children to take away from the orphanage every time he went to the orphanage.
Xue Youli pondered for a moment and then said, "Since it's almost dawn, rushing back now will make people notice us more easily. It's better to wait until dark before returning to the palace."
This missing child case has far-reaching implications, and finding the child is just the first step.
Chu Xinyue and her had always had a tacit understanding, and she immediately understood her hidden meaning. "Are you trying to pull Murong Ye out of this case?"
Murong Ye has the aura of the male protagonist, so this case alone is not enough to bring him down.
Xue Youli was well aware of this. "Even if we can't catch Murong Ye, the main culprit, it would be good to eliminate his minions. In my opinion, there must be something wrong with the adoption records of the Charity Bureau. Xunhuanlou has adopted children many times in recent years. I don't believe the officials in charge of the Charity Bureau are unaware of this."
Chu Xinyue nodded immediately after she reminded him, "I understand. These officials have either been bribed by Murong Ye, or they have been in cahoots with Murong Ye for a long time."
Xue Youli replied, "So, if we want to completely prevent children from experiencing such disasters again, we must solve the problem at its source! Before Murong Ye and the others react, we must quickly identify all the officials involved and punish them severely!"
"Okay! I'll be your personal bodyguard today. I'll accompany you wherever you go!"
After Xue Youli handed the sorted information to Xuan Ming, he and Chu Xinyue went to the Charity Bureau to check the situation.
At this time, the genius is bright.
Prince Xian’s Mansion.
A woman covered in dust and wounds collapsed at the gate of the palace.
The guard looked at her disheveled appearance and walked over to chase her away with disgust, "You stinky beggar, get out of here right now! Don't dirty the gate of the Xianwang Mansion!"
"Ahh! Ahhhhhh!"
The woman raised the token that she was holding tightly in her hand and made a strange sound of "ah ah ah".
After the guard recognized the token, his expression froze and he said in a deep voice, "Quick! Go and inform His Highness!"
