Chapter 139 Rescue
Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing brought the man back home and placed him in a side room.
Afterwards, the two went to find a doctor to treat the man.
After a careful examination, the doctor's face showed a serious expression.
"He is seriously injured and needs to be nursed back to health."
Jiang Yu's heart tightened when he heard this.
She glanced at the man lying on the bed, her heart full of doubts.
Who is he?
Why was he injured so badly?
Why did Xiaolian appear in that basement?
All kinds of doubts lingered in Jiang Yu's mind, giving him a headache.
After sending the doctor away, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing sat at the table in the side room and discussed what to do next.
"This matter is by no means simple, we must get to the bottom of it."
Jiang Yu said with a serious expression.
Lin Wanqing nodded, a worried look on her face.
"But how do we start investigating?"
Jiang Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Perhaps, we can start with Xiaolian."
"Xiaolian?"
Lin Wanqing was slightly stunned, then understood what Jiang Yu meant.
"You mean, ask Xiaolian for clarification?"
Jiang Yu nodded, a glint of determination flashing in his eyes.
"That's right. Only by asking Xiaolian can we know the truth."
The two looked at each other, their hearts filled with determination.
They must get to the bottom of this matter!
Early the next morning, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing came to Xiaolian's home.
When Xiaolian saw the two people's sudden visit, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"Ms. Jiang, Madam Lin, why are you here?"
Jiang Yu glanced at her calmly and asked directly, "Xiao Lian, we saw everything in the basement yesterday. I hope you can tell us the truth about what happened."
Xiaolian's expression suddenly changed when she heard this.
"You...you all saw it?"
Jiang Yu nodded, a solemn look on his face.
"Yes, we all saw it. Xiaolian, tell us, who was that man? Why was he so badly injured?"
Xiaolian hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and told the truth.
It turned out that the man was her childhood sweetheart. They grew up together and had a deep relationship.
However, some time ago, the man suddenly disappeared and Xiaolian couldn't find him no matter how hard she looked.
It was not until yesterday that she accidentally discovered the basement and found that the man was imprisoned there and tortured.
"I wanted to rescue him, but I was alone and weak, and I was no match for those people."
As Xiaolian spoke, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing felt a surge of anger in their hearts.
Who on earth could treat an innocent person so cruelly?
The two looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
They must get to the bottom of this matter!
"Xiao Lian, don't worry, we will definitely help you."
Jiang Yu held Xiaolian's hand and said firmly.
When Xiaolian heard this, a look of gratitude flashed in her eyes.
"Thank you, Miss Jiang, Mrs. Lin."
With the help of Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing, Xiaolian immediately gained confidence.
After discussing it, the three decided to start by investigating those who imprisoned the man.
Xiaolian brought Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing to the basement and told them the characteristics of those people one by one.
After hearing this, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
These people are obviously not easy to deal with.
However, they did not back down.
In order to find out the truth and rescue the man, they decided to meet those people in person.
After some investigation, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing finally found the hiding place of those people.
They took Xiaolian and quietly came to the place where those people were hiding.
I saw those people discussing something in the room, with fierce looks on their faces.
Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
They took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in.
When those people saw this, they were shocked and stood up one after another.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Jiang Yu glanced at them coldly and shouted, "We are here to take your lives!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she and Lin Wanqing rushed forward and started fighting with those people.
Although Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing were both women, they were agile and quickly subdued those people to the ground.
"Tell me! Who are you? Why are you holding that man captive?"
Jiang Yu asked sternly while stepping on someone's back.
The man screamed in pain and begged for mercy: "Lady, spare my life! I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"
After some questioning, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing finally learned the truth.
It turned out that these people were a group of tomb robbers, and the man was their accomplice.
Some time ago, they robbed a large tomb together and got a lot of treasures.
However, due to the uneven distribution of the spoils, they had a conflict and finally decided to imprison the man and force him to reveal the whereabouts of the treasure.
After learning the truth, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in their hearts.
These people actually treated their accomplices so cruelly for money!
They decided to hand these tomb robbers over to the government and let them receive the punishment they deserve.
Afterwards, they took Xiaolian to the basement and rescued the man.
When the man saw Xiaolian, Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing, he was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
"Thank you! Thank you for saving me!"
Xiaolian looked at him, her eyes full of heartache and concern.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
The man shook his head and gave a weak smile.
"I'm fine. Now that you're here, I'm safe."
Jiang Yu and Lin Wanqing looked at this scene, and a warm feeling surged in their hearts.
They smiled at each other, knowing that the matter was finally over.
Suddenly a panicked woman rushed in.
"Help! Is there anyone? Please save my daughter! I don't know what happened to her. She suddenly fell unconscious!"
When Jiang Yu heard this, his heart tightened. He quickly put down the work in his hands and followed the woman to her home.
I saw a little girl of seven or eight years old lying on the bed. She was pale, her eyes were closed, and she looked very weak.
Jiang Yu went forward and checked carefully, but found that the little girl's pulse was very weak and there was a strange smell on her body.
She frowned, feeling a surge of doubt in her heart.
This smell... seems to have been smelled somewhere before?
At this moment, she suddenly remembered the tomb robber she had met before.
He also has this strange smell!
Jiang Yu's heart moved, and he quickly asked the woman, "Has your daughter come into contact with any strange people or things recently?"
The woman thought about it and suddenly her eyes lit up.
"Yes! A few days ago, a strange peddler came to our village. The things he sold were very cheap, so my daughter bought him a bracelet. But after wearing it for a while, she became like this."
As she spoke, she took off a bracelet from her daughter's wrist and handed it to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu took the bracelet and looked at it carefully, and found that there was indeed a strange smell on it.
She immediately understood that there was something wrong with the bracelet!
