Quick Transmigration: My System is a Big Liar

"Didn't Zhang Jianmin chase after him?" Jiang Lan asked curiously. Zhang Jianmin had given up on the high position he had finally climbed up to? She couldn't quite believe it.

Jiang Yan laughed gleefully, "He does want to go, but the regimental commander and political commissar won't approve his leave. He can't even leave the unit, and he'll probably have to undergo an investigation."

"If this is true, what punishment will Zhang Jianmin receive?"

Jiang Yan replied, "If the situation is true this time, Zhang Jianmin will not receive any substantial punishment, but he should be given a major demerit."

Jiang Lan nodded. "Let it be a demerit then!"

As long as Zhang Jianmin's reputation is ruined, then this trip will not have been in vain.

It wouldn't be fun if someone were killed instantly.

Moreover, she had no plans to go back to the village; she had plenty of time to spend with him.

Having achieved her goal, Jiang Lan took the opportunity to say goodbye to Jiang Yan.

Although Jiang Yan was reluctant to part with this older sister he had just met, he also knew that it was not appropriate for him to stay in the military guesthouse indefinitely.

First, she needed to find a job, settle down, and transfer her household registration. Fortunately, the Zhang family had separated her household registration to avoid any trouble.

The next morning, Jiang Lan got into the car that was going out to buy supplies and left the army base, swaying and staggering.

About an hour later, the car arrived at Xingyuan Town. Jiang Lan thanked the driver and then carried her bag into the town.

Jiang Lan set off early in the morning and didn't have time to eat breakfast. She bought a few steamed buns at a state-run restaurant and ate them as she walked, thinking about how to find a job.

The work at this time is basically one person per position, there are no extras at all.

She had heard in the village before that you could buy a job with grain, so she decided to give it a try.

Jiang Lan unknowingly walked into a dead end. When she tried to turn back, she found someone blocking her way.

Clearly, these two had been following her for a long time, but she had been so engrossed in her thoughts that she hadn't noticed. She also wondered what Ping An was doing, not even giving her a heads-up.

[Host, I'm sorry, I was watching TV and didn't notice.]

[...] Useless, the more you upgrade, the less useful you become.

Seeing Jiang Lan in a daze, the monkey snorted coldly, "So it was you who put Wan San in there?"

The tall, thin man glanced at Jiang Lan from head to toe and said disdainfully, "What a useless thing, to actually fall for such a country bumpkin."

Jiang Lan had no time to scold Ping An at this moment, and at the same time guessed that the two of them were probably Cao Da Niang's group, and now they had come to take revenge.

Jiang Lan looked at them warily, her mind racing as she considered what to do. "What do you want?"

"Oh! So you admit it. But you won't be so lucky today, no one will come to your rescue," the tall, thin man mocked.

Jiang Lan said, "That's not necessarily true. You'd better let me go, or you might lose your base."

"A dead duck has a tough mouth."

"Hand her over to Master Huang and let him handle it."

Upon hearing the name "Master Huang," Jiang Lan gave up struggling, feigning fear, and obediently followed them to see the so-called Master Huang.

That night, she and several other girls were crammed into a truck, and it wasn't until several days and nights later that the truck finally stopped.

Ping An told me that this is the outskirts of Beijing, the hideout of human traffickers.

The five of them were locked in the basement. The girls were drugged and left lying on the ground.

[Ping An, how many human traffickers are in this house?]

Knowing he had made a mistake, Ping An wanted to atone for it and recounted everything he had seen: "Host, there were twenty-seven in total. There were also over a dozen children locked up in the basement not far from you. The youngest was only two or three years old, and the oldest was over ten. So pitiful!"

There are too many human traffickers; she has no chance of winning. [Ping An, can you send a message outside?]

[Host, you cannot.]

Alright! If we can't rely on external forces, we can only rely on ourselves. Hopefully, her lucky charm will work this time, and the police officers, soldiers, and Uncle Lei Feng will find this place as soon as possible.

When the round-faced little girl woke up, she saw Jiang Lan with her hands clasped together and asked curiously, "Sister, what are you doing?"

Jiang Lan spoke frankly, "I'm praying that God will send someone to save us."

The round-faced little girl then remembered that she had been sold by her stepmother, and she pouted and cried loudly.

After a while, the round-faced little girl's crying gradually stopped. She touched her belly and looked at Jiang Lan pitifully.

"Sister, do you have anything to eat? I'm so hungry."

The girl looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old. Her baby fat hadn't gone down yet, and her skin was fair and tender, making her quite adorable.

Jiang Lan took out the last vegetable bun from his pocket and handed it to her.

Mu Qingqing broke off half of the food and handed it to Jiang Lan, who did not refuse and ate it in small bites.

"Thank you, sister. My name is Mu Qingqing, and I'm thirteen years old." Mu Qingqing seemed extremely hungry, and quickly finished half a steamed bun.

Jiang Lan said, "My name is Jiang Lan, and I'm twice your age."

Mu Qingqing sniffed and murmured, "Sister Jiang, where are we? I miss my dad. Will I ever see him again?"

"Yes, we will meet again. We will all return safely." Jiang Lan patted the little girl who was leaning on her shoulder.

"Sister Jiang, why do some people say one thing to my face and another behind my back? She's not only my stepmother, but also my own aunt. Why did she sell me out?" Mu Qingqing cried. She never expected her aunt to sell her out. Was all the love she showed her just a lie?

How could Jiang Lan possibly answer this? He could only silently comfort the girl. What could it be? It was probably related to interests, or perhaps she was jealous of Mu Qingqing's favor with the emperor!

A few soft sobs came from the side. It was clear that the other three girls had woken up, heard their conversation, and thought about what had happened to them!

After an unknown amount of time, just as everyone was dozing off, the basement door was opened, and Jiang Lan was led out. The tall, thin man snorted coldly, "Let's go! Master Huang wants to see you."

Jiang Lan rolled her eyes speechlessly. What's with this little human trafficker acting all smug? He'll be punished by law sooner or later.

I accidentally discovered a stack of ten-yuan notes in the pocket of the tall, thin man; there must have been at least twenty or thirty.

It's probably the 'salary' I just received.

I don't know how many families were ruined in order to achieve this.

snort!

It will leave you with empty pockets.

Jiang Lan secretly transferred the money from the tall, thin man's pocket to her own space, and immediately felt a little more at ease.

"Monkey, are you sure it's her?" In the courtyard, Grandpa Huang looked at Jiang Lan with disbelief. His brother-in-law had actually fallen for a woman who had no redeeming qualities.

"Master Huang, it's her. I saw it with my own eyes, there's absolutely no mistake," the monkey said with absolute certainty.
