Chapter 58 The Crazy Housewife (37)
Xiaoying pushed her way forward with all her might and finally reached the middle-aged woman. The woman waved her plump hand and told the people around her, "We've recruited enough people today. I'll come back tomorrow, still here."
The chosen girl was smug, looking down on the people around her with an air of superiority. It's so hard to find work these days, especially jobs that include food and lodging.
Xiaoying wanted to be like the other girls, so when everyone else had left, she ran over and grabbed the middle-aged woman's hand, "Sister, take me with you. I eat little but do a lot of work. I promise you won't be taken advantage of if you take me with you."
The middle-aged woman looked Xiaoying up and down, nodded, and said, "Come on, but your pay might not be as much as theirs. Are you willing?"
The other girls were a little unhappy when they heard that Xiaoying would be included, but their displeasure disappeared when they heard that the pay would be less than theirs.
Xiaoying nodded quickly, "Yes, I'm willing."
The middle-aged woman smirked and left with a group of people. As long as she brought these people home, all the money she had spent on food, lodging, and other necessities would come back to her.
Not long after Xiaoying arrived in the county town, Xiong Bufan also arrived. However, Xiong Bufan did not find Xiaoying. Instead, he turned left and right and came to the gate of a primary school, where there were many food vendors.
With his mouth greasy from eating, Kongkong asked Xiong Bufan, "Bufan, aren't we going to look for Xiaoying anymore?"
Xiong Bufan poured the snack in his hand into his mouth, finished eating it calmly, and said, "Let's look for her. I can smell her here. If we keep looking, we'll definitely find her."
"Ok."
After eating their way through the area around the school gate, Xiong Bufan sat down on a chair where parents were resting. "Let's rest for a bit before we go catch her. Maybe we can catch the TV drama tonight when we get back."
Xiong Bufan closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Suddenly, his eyes widened. He seemed to smell his money. He got off the chair and followed the scent.
Kongkong: "Bufan, have you discovered something?"
Regardless of whether he had eaten enough, Xiong Bufan ran wildly, shouting, "I smell money, the smell of my money!"
Kongkong, thinking Xiong Bufan was going to rob him, quickly said, "You've already exchanged your money for food; it would be impolite to take it back."
Xiong Bufan remained silent. Kong Kong watched as Xiong Bufan moved further and further away from the school grounds before slowly feeling relieved, as long as he wasn't going to rob the money he had spent.
After running for a while, Xiong Bufan stopped to check the smell. He finally found a few pieces of cloth in a trash can. Xiong Bufan sniffed them carefully, put the cloth in his pocket, and ran again, running even faster, afraid that if he was too late, someone else would spend his money.
A man dressed in black was walking down the street, humming a tune. Xiong Bufan kicked him and shouted, "Robbery! Hand over all your money!"
Kongkong: "Bufan, robbery is illegal."
Xiong Bufan stepped on the man and said righteously, "I'm just taking back my own money."
The man in black was stunned for a moment after being kicked, but when he came to his senses, he cursed at Xiong Bufan: "Where did this bastard come from, daring to bully your grandpa like that...?"
Xiong Bufan grabbed the man by the arm, lifted him up, stared at him, and slapped the man across the face, saying, "Give me back my money."
The man in black opened his eyes and looked at the beautiful but fierce woman. He thought for a long time but couldn't remember when he had stolen or robbed her money. However, seeing her aggressive demeanor, the man in black decided to pay her off. "How much money did you lose? I'll give it to you."
"Lots and lots of money."
The man in black had never seen anyone so greedy, but he still said, "Put me down."
Xiong Bufan threw him on the ground, and the man in black took out some money from his pocket. "Here you go." Xiong Bufan took it, but the money wasn't his at all. He said again, "It's not this. Give it back to me." As he spoke, Xiong Bufan also took out a piece of cloth that he had found in the trash can.
The man in black recognized the piece of cloth; he had made a big deal that day, and the money was wrapped in this cloth. But he couldn't admit it now. "Why are you taking this rag? I didn't take it, that's all."
Xiong Bufan's patience finally wore thin. He took off the black-clad man's shoes, pulled out several hundred-yuan bills, and said to the man, "You stink! Hiding money in your shoes? Disgusting."
The barefoot man in black was speechless, unconsciously covering his crotch. Being pulled down by this woman in the street was worse than committing suicide by banging his head against a wall.
Xiong Bufan didn't pull down his pants. He put the money in the small cloth bag, stuffed it into his pocket, and left, complaining to Kongkong as he walked: "Does he really think I can't smell it? Even that stinky foot smell can't cover up my love for money."
Kongkong: "Yes, yes, Bufan is the most powerful, but when are we going to find Xiaoying?"
"I'm not looking anymore, I'm going home to sleep. I'll look again tomorrow, I'm already tired today."
Kongkong thought to himself: I think you're just looking for another excuse to come to the county town to find something to eat tomorrow, you gluttonous fellow.
Xiong Bufan had no idea what Kongkong was thinking. He was currently running home as fast as he could, and if he ran fast, he might be able to get home before dark.
After Xiaoying left home, the happiest person was Cui Wudi, finally no one was going to ruin her parents' relationship. Xiong Tianci, on the other hand, went about his business, continuing to read the Marriage Law, preparing to explain the legal provisions to Xiong Bufan that evening.
Cui Daqiang heard that Xiaoying was at home while he was in the hospital, so he returned home after only a few days. However, when he arrived, Xiaoying had already disappeared.
Liu Jianping quickly explained, "I didn't kick her out. I was still at home when I left. Why don't you ask An Qingnuan?"
Mentioning Xiong Bufan, Cui Daqiang shrank back in his wheelchair. Seeing that Xiong Bufan wasn't home, Cui Daqiang breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she hadn't heard what he was saying. He had finally recovered a little, and he couldn't afford to get beaten up again.
Xiong Bufan finally returned in time for dinner, but he had only eaten half of his meal when Chief Wang from the county arrived by car, hoping that Xiong Bufan would assist in the investigation. They had received information about a major human trafficking case within the county, and that the perpetrators would be leaving by train at six o'clock the next day. They hoped that Xiong Bufan would find them before six o'clock the next day.
After speaking, Chief Wang cautiously observed Xiong Bufan's expression. This was his first time meeting this unofficial staff member. She was said to be quick to solve cases and ruthless. He wouldn't have come to her if the situation hadn't been urgent.
Cui Daqiang told Liu Jianping to pour water for Chief Wang, but he didn't dare urge Xiong Bufan, because he didn't want to get beaten up.
Xiong Bufan held up one finger, and Chief Wang quickly replied, "After it's done, there'll be a reward of one thousand! And we'll give you a banner."
"Don't give me that stuff, just give me money. We've already piled up so many banners at home, when are we leaving?" After saying that, Xiong Bufan picked up two steamed buns from the table, stuffed them into his pocket, and stood up.
Sergeant Wang: "It's so good that you've come! Let's set off now!"
Kongkong spoke up at an inopportune moment: "Bufan, it's not good for you to put the money and the steamed bun together. The money was taken out of the shoe, and the cloth bag was taken out of the trash can."
Xiong Bufan took out the steamed bun and asked Chief Wang, "Have you had dinner tonight?"
Chief Wang: "No, it's too rushed. We'll just grab something to eat when we get back!"
Xiong Bufan handed him the steamed bun, "Eat up, we have to get to work later!"
Sergeant Wang said, "Thank you. Now that you mention it, I am indeed a little hungry." After saying that, Sergeant Wang took a bite of the bun, which seemed to have a strange taste.
Xiong Bufan said with a sly smile, "You're welcome. Ten yuan for one bun. Pay up."
Just as Chief Wang was about to vomit, Xiong Bufan pinched his mouth shut. "Spit out a hundred!" Chief Wang had no choice but to swallow the bun. Then he took out 20 yuan from his pocket and gave it to Xiong Bufan. Was his colleague a money-grubber? Ten yuan for a bun. Why didn't she just rob him? Two buns and she took away his food expenses for a week.
Xiong Bufan put the money back in his pocket with satisfaction. He thought to himself, "Next time I'll sell steamed buns. I'm sure I can make a lot of money then."
Kongkong was speechless. Xiong Bufan wasn't human, but he was a real dog. It was all Cui Daqiang's fault for corrupting such a good bear.
The driver didn't dare say anything while driving. After arriving at the county bus station, Chief Wang said, "Comrade Xiong, this is the last place the human traffickers were seen."
Xiong Bufan followed the scent; there was a faint, sinful aura in the air, mixed with the aroma of popular food. He slowly searched for the source of the scent.
Xiong Bufan didn't know about the aura of sin at first, but after finding many human traffickers, he discovered that they all had the same scent. Since trafficking other people's children was a heinous crime, Xiong Bufan called the scent of human traffickers the aura of sin.
