Chapter 436 The Police Arrive
"No." Fang Qing, afraid of being beaten, quickly replied to appease him before slowly continuing, "Well, how should I put it? Sigh! It's my fault for not being educated and having no culture. I didn't know what that address was called."
"Then do you know where it is?"
“Well…I do know that.”
"take me."
Fang Qing: "..." This man is too scary.
Taking this kind of person back home would be terrifying.
She stammered, "I bought a ticket back to Nancheng in three days. Tickets are hard to buy now, you probably won't be able to get one."
"Three days later? Okay, I'll come find you in three days."
"No, those tickets are hard to buy, you might not be able to get one."
"It's none of your business, I have my own way of doing things."
The man got up to leave, but stopped at the door and asked again, "What is she doing in the south of the city?"
"Working, you can earn a lot of money a month."
The man nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
Fang Qing thought to herself that she had paid a high price to get the ticket from a scalper, and judging from the man's shabby clothes, he didn't look rich at all.
No wonder he couldn't get a ticket.
Fang Qing didn't pay attention.
However, after the man left, she wrote down the address, intending to give it to Ye Xiaotong's family.
She didn't want to provoke this fierce-looking man; let him fight with Ye Xiaotong's family, and hopefully someone will get killed.
She had already found out what Ye Xiaotong's family was like, and if they were truly threatened, they would sell their daughter faster than they would sell a rabbit.
Once this family has thoroughly tormented this man, it will be even more interesting when he finds Ye Xiaoxiaotong.
"Ye Xiaotong, Lin Yuyao, humph, we'll see."
……
As soon as they started work, the police came to their door.
Everyone looked at the two police officers at the door.
Lin Yuyao put down her pen and walked towards the two of them.
"I am the person in charge here. May I ask what business you two have with me?"
"Don't be nervous, we just have a little something to ask about."
"You say."
"Excuse me, is there a lady here named Ye Xiaotong?"
Looking for Ye Xiaotong?
Lin Yuyao immediately understood what was going on.
Ye Xiaotong stepped forward and said, "That's me. What can I do for you?"
"So you are...?" The two men exchanged glances, looked her up and down, and seeing that she was unharmed, asked her, "Do you have an ID card?"
"Have."
She stole the ID card before she ran away and kept it close to her body.
Whenever she had the chance, she would run away with her ID card and the hundred yuan her grandmother had secretly given her.
Ye Xiaotong took out her ID card, and the two of them checked it.
The place of origin and the name match up; it seems to be that person.
Why did you sneak away?
Lin Yuyao had already taught her a set of talking points, but when it came time to use them, she was still a little nervous.
Lin Yuyao encouraged her from behind, "Just tell the truth."
Ye Xiaotong nodded and said, "My husband's family of three are all violent. I couldn't take it anymore and was going to be beaten to death if I didn't run away."
They were aware of this situation, and many women had to leave for other places, especially in some underdeveloped mountainous areas, for various unavoidable reasons.
"Your husband's family beat you, why didn't you tell your family?"
Ye Xiaotong forced out tears and whispered, "They were my biological parents who sold me to that family so that my older brother could get a wife. I went back to my parents' home and told them, but they sent me back that same day and beat me even worse."
The two comrades were completely taken aback after hearing this.
What kind of parents know that their daughter is suffering from domestic violence, and instead of standing up for her, they push her into a pit of fire?
"Do you know that your parents thought you were murdered by your husband's family? They even called the police and had all three members of your husband's family arrested for questioning, wasting a lot of police resources searching for you in the mountains?"
Ye Xiaotong looked panicked. "Ah? I didn't know. I'm so sorry, so very sorry. What responsibility do you think I need to take? I'll try my best to take responsibility."
"Don't be nervous, you don't need to take responsibility for this."
Ye Xiaotong breathed a sigh of relief.
After taking your statement, the police officer continued, "Okay, we understand your situation. Your escape was out of necessity. But even if you escaped, you shouldn't have left your family uninformed. They've been looking for you like crazy."
This statement immediately drew angry rebuttals.
"Who would she tell? They're all ruthless bastards. If she told them, would she still be able to escape? She'd probably die in some remote mountain valley and no one would even know."
The police officers naturally understand these principles, but they have their own rules and regulations, and they have to say what needs to be said.
Sometimes when I encounter injustice, I wear this outfit to offer kind words of advice, and take it off to uphold justice.
Lin Yuyao only spoke after the angry and indignant employees had finished speaking.
"Alright, everyone go back to your work and don't interfere with the comrades' investigation."
After saying that, she looked at the two of them and asked, "Xiaotong, she should be alright, right?"
"It's alright. As long as we ensure she's healthy and alive, we can report back to our superiors."
"Will you tell her where she is now back in her hometown?"
"We will tell the police there that she is in Nancheng, just going out to work normally, and it doesn't count as missing. Don't worry, we won't tell them Ye Xiaotong's specific address."
"Thank you. Is she alright now?"
“It’s alright, but…” they said to Ye Xiaotong, “I suggest you call your parents to let them know you’re safe.”
Ye Xiaotong's face turned pale, her expression filled with resistance.
The other party then said, "Of course, it's your freedom to decide whether to fight or not. We're just offering humanitarian advice."
The two left after taking notes.
Despite the freezing weather, Ye Xiaotong was drenched in sweat and collapsed back at her workstation, feeling utterly exhausted.
Everyone came to persuade and comfort her.
"Don't worry, we live in a civilized society governed by the rule of law. You've already escaped from the mountains."
"I'm afraid they'll find their way here sooner or later," someone else said.
"Let them come. If they dare to come, we dare to write about it and let the whole country see the true colors of those people. Righteous people, we can drown them with our spittle."
Ye Xiaotong forced a smile, "Thank you, I'm not afraid."
Lin Yuyao told everyone to disperse, then patted her on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, just focus on your work."
Ye Xiaotong nodded and got back to work.
Two days later, Lin Yuyao received a call from Lin Ping.
"Sister, you've heard about Xiaotong's matter from Mother, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Tsk tsk, the Yang family and the Ye family got into a fight yesterday."
Lin Yuyao's heart skipped a beat. "What's wrong?"
"It's all because of Ye Xiaotong. The Yang family said that the Ye family must have known that Xiaotong was working outside, so they deliberately called the police to harm them and they want the Ye family to compensate them for their losses."
Lin Yuyao thought to herself that Ye Xiaotong's parents and brothers were no pushovers either, so it was no wonder they wouldn't offer any compensation.
