Dai Xiaoman is still remembering the scene when he first arrived in Nancheng. It was winter and the weather was very cold. The feet in the shoes were always cold, as if soaked in ice.

With the help of the people in the village, they helped grandma with a funeral, bought a bus ticket, and set off on the road south.

The two underage children were traveling for the first time. She and her younger brother got out of the car and discovered that their money had been stolen. Two hundred dollars were missing in their pockets, and three steel bars were left.

She cried for a while on the side of the road, bought a piece of bread for her brother, and ate it. It was the last piece of bread. She watched his brother eat and licked her lips.The sensible brother broke a piece for her to eat with her. She took a bite, and then told his brother that he was not hungry, but tears slipped down again.

With so many people walking in a hurry on the street, so many high-rise buildings, and seeing them dazzled, she felt that the city was so big, but it was so strange.

She regretted a bit, but she heard a sentence from a neighbor that seemed to have seen her mother in Nancheng, so she took her younger brother on this journey hastily, and then she paid the price for her recklessness.

But if they continue to stay in the country, the grandma they can rely on is no longer there, and they may not be living better than they are now.

This city is so big that there is no place for them to live in.

They stayed in the lobby of the bus station all night, and soon reached the end of the road. They were so hungry that they went to some restaurants and picked up the leftover food from the guests. She went around asking her mother's name and those people. Some said they didn't know, some rolled their eyes at her and regarded her as a lunatic or a liar.

She went to some places where she was applying for jobs. I heard that she was just fourteen years old and had only a primary school degree. Everyone waved their hands.

She had encountered an old man who came to ask where their adult was, but his eyes were cast on her, so she had to run away in fright.

She not only needs to support herself, but also takes care of her younger brother.

Dai Xiaoman learned to beg along the road, but was driven several times.The benches in the park were very panicked when they slept. In the end, she took her brother to the underside of the bridge.There are vagrants like them.

When she reached the end of the road, she was taken to a house and opened the door. The man turned around and said, "From now on, this place will be your new home."

Dai Xiaoman thought about those experiences, as if it happened yesterday: "...We came soon, and the money was quickly spent, and we lived under the bridge. Later, she met an aunt, and she asked us if she wanted to There is a home. Someone specially takes in poor homeless children like us, provides us with food and clothing, and will work for us in the future."

"This news is a great thing for us, so my brother and I followed the woman. Indeed, many children were adopted there. Boys and girls did not live together, so my brother and I separated. "

"I was taken to a private house. The aunt who found us before was responsible for me. There are still a few girls in that house, most of whom are younger than me. The aunt gave me a bath and praised me, look. I still look good if I don’t come out. In the following years, she taught me how to make-up, cook, and teach me how to..." At this point, Dai Xiaofei raised her eyes and looked at Song Wen, winking like silk. Seduce, please men..."

Song Wen thought, where is the free lunch under the sky, that is probably the way the fish niang tamed these children, he continued to ask: "Have you ever been abused when you lived in this kind of place? Do you want to escape? ?"

Dai Xiaoman shook his head, and when he talked about these experiences, he felt like a world away: "Escape? Why do you want to escape? Someone will give you food, some will help you with all kinds of affairs, and some will give you money. You are portrayed as very good. In the future, according to your situation, you will be given a destination. You have a certain degree of freedom, just like staying in a huge home, you can feel warm... That was almost the best we could find at that time. Home."

She paused, "But it seems that there have been disobedient children. At the beginning, they were severely punished, and other children would alienate them. If they were very disobedient... I would never see them again. "

Lu Siyu recorded it. At that time, Dai Xiaoman sounded like a raised rice worm and was once brainwashed.

Those children who have different intentions may have been warned or eliminated in the early stage. The grades and division of labor of the children are very clear, and there should be a relatively strict reward and punishment system to make them obedient.

Children do not feel that they are being imprisoned and used. The police may be the person they fear most.Calling the police is the method they least use.

Habit is a kind of hateful and fearful thing. Staying in this kind of place a lot, you will slowly become lazy and loyal.

Asking here all the way, Song Wen frowned frequently, a city with a population of millions of people, you never know, what kind of form and what kind of evil it will give birth to, he asked: "You know that other children are from Where did it come from?"

Dai Xiaoman recalled: "I was picked up. Others, some ran away from home, a child escaped from an internet addiction school, and some..." She paused. I also feel that it is inevitable to talk about this topic, "Most of the children, I think they were abducted or sold by their parents."

"Auntie goes out regularly and will bring her children back when she goes out. When someone who sees a good-looking child, she will call her to get a bonus. She will also go to a trafficker to pick up the child, because the long-term cooperation is better than selling There are few variables for ordinary people, so you can choose the best-looking and best among children."

The composition of these children is similar to what Lu Siyu had previously speculated. Children who were abducted, children who ran away from home, and children whose parents had died and their relatives were unwilling to raise.

There are many such children in the city itself, and they don't realize their value. It is the fish lady who gathered these children.

"What are the ages of those children?"

"At that time, I was the largest in that room. Most of the children were under adulthood. They were just ignorant years. I met very young people who were only two or three years old. Auntie was too lazy to take care of them. She, just leave it to our older children, and no one will change the diaper when it gets wet. If you get sick, just stay by yourself."

"I took care of a seven-year-old child who was abducted on the way out of school in the first grade. She was very innocent and beautiful. At first, she was very uncomfortable and would cry. After half a month, she was happily living with us. Together, I will teach her some simple words. Unfortunately, she is not too smart and was soon taken away by two men. The aunt said that some people just like little girls. I think she was probably taken As a gift, I have never seen her since..."

Dai Xiaoman was talking, flicking her earlobes with her hands, her ears were still wearing delicate earrings, and she felt like a world away.

Song Wen continued to ask her: "What kind of life did you lead in those years? How did you stay with Cheng Mo later?"

Dai Xiaoman recalled: "We live in an older community. Auntie will take care of our lives. Someone will send us clothes and daily necessities. Every afternoon, we have a certain amount of free time. , You can go downstairs, bask in the sun, skip rope in the yard, and go shopping nearby. If an adult asks, you can say that you are here to visit relatives. No one wants to leave, that kind of life is quite comfortable."

"I only found out once when I chatted. Auntie was originally a mother Sang. She told me that some children would be sold as prostitutes and were managed by pimps. But I was smart and excellent, and she would find me in the future. A good family."

"At that time, each of our girls had a suitcase of our own. We often needed to move. After a while, we would bring our suitcases from one community to another. There was a special car. When we are transferred, our roommates often change."

If you don't investigate this, Song Wen can't imagine that there are still such a group of children in this city.

They seem to be in a system completely different from the existing social system, and the children are huddling together for warmth.

They are like a school of fish, swimming in the same direction, then divided, screened, and put in different uses.

They don't even feel that they will embark on the road of illegal crimes, and they are grateful to the adults who raised them.

"The last remaining girls are required to be smart, have high emotional intelligence, know how to please men, be beautiful, and have a good body. Some girls are even taken to small clinics for cosmetic surgery. They will give us Rating, the more beautiful girls are, the more valuable they are."

As Lu Siyu recorded, it seemed that those stupid, ugly, stubborn, or disobedient children were gradually eliminated.

Only a few, such as beautiful and excellent as Dai Xiaoman, have the opportunity to play for them.

"I was raised until I was eighteen years old, and I lived like this for four years. A man came over to talk to me once and showed me a picture of Cheng Mo, and then he told me everything about Cheng Mo. He also told me what I needed to do. He gave me a full set of certificates, a mobile phone card, and a bank card. I learned to write the three words Dai Xiaoman for a day, and I became proficient in memorizing it. Down with the ID number, I have been called Dai Xiaoman since then..."

"I was trained for half a month, and silently took down a set of my resume. My past was fabricated. I was told how to answer questions and how to deal with other people's relationships. In particular, I need to understand what Cheng Mo's habits are. , Any preferences. Even tell me how to approach his children, what their birthdays are, and let his children accept me."

"They gave me a form with the hobbies of your wives. Whose wife likes gold ornaments, whose wife likes to play mahjong, whose wife likes flowers, whose wife likes spicy food, you must all Memorize it so that you can take advantage of it in the future."

"They also mentioned Zhang Deputy Bureau to me. Cheng Mo's position is obviously not high enough, but he is a good old man and an entry point. Although Zhang Deputy Bureau is lascivious, there is a tigress in the family. There is no way to start directly. Cheng Mo is a good springboard for me to approach him. Only with the identity of Mrs. Cheng Mo can I approach those people."

"Then I was arranged to live in the opposite of Cheng Mo's house. At first, I made a chance encounter. The first time I remembered that the milk tea in my hand was spilled on him, I kept his WeChat under the pretext. Later I bought it. A shirt was lost to him, and he gradually became familiar."

"I showed him weakness, pretended to be entangled by a scumbag, went to the place where he ate, and was rescued by his hero. Then I thanked him in a treat, pretended to be drunk, and I complained to him. I don't want to find a boyfriend or have a baby. It’s better to marry a married man who will take care of his wife."

"His daughter celebrated his birthday, and I sold cakes and toys to his daughter. He quickly confessed to me. Then we got married. He was the second marriage. At that time, police officers were not allowed to hold the wedding. I said my father had passed away. My mother married another person and lived abroad. She only had a meal with his parents and asked them to video with my mother. In fact, my mother is just dressed up by an aunt."

Dai Xiaoman put it lightly, as if it didn't take much effort to marry Cheng Mo successfully, all it takes is time and management.

Song Wen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did Cheng Mo doubt you?"

"Cheng Mo is very busy. He has to take care of the children when he goes home. He rarely cares about me. He has a weak relationship with his family. He basically has separate things. He asked me why I married him. I replied that I particularly like the police. , The first time I saw him, I thought he was responsible and manly, let alone he saved me."

"I said I don't like handsome men, and I don't care about age difference. I have been cheated and hurt by handsome men before. It's better to find someone who can live a down-to-earth life." At this point, Dai Xiaoman suddenly smiled with tears in his eyes, "That The old man actually believed..."

"But I still showed flaws. My resume graduated from a secretarial major. One time I needed to write a note, but I didn't write it up. He asked, I lied about typing too much on my phone, and I forgot how to write it. Prevarication, in fact, I was terribly scared at that time..."

"One time his son was sick. I took the child to the hospital with him. I didn't know what to register or how to pay the bill. Fortunately, Cheng Mo thought I was panicking and didn't pay too much attention."

"There are more things like this, right?"

"I will ask Cheng Mo about some cases and the police station. He didn't want to tell me at first, but then slowly, he started to say..."

"After that, everything went smoothly. I joined the wives and met Deputy Director Zhang..."

When Dai Xiaoman said this, her eyes gradually became cold. She is now 23 years old and married Cheng Mo when she was 18.She was with Cheng Mo for five years.

There is something to be wary of for a while, but it will slowly pass by over time.Cheng Mo must have never imagined that even in a peaceful age, there are dangers around him.

He didn't even think that the opponent would even count his little captain in order to get into the Nancheng City Bureau.

"I’m with Cheng Mo and I am very free. As long as I ask for the information, I will get various rewards. I can buy various cosmetics and bags. If it’s not this time, I think I’m going to be with that old man. The man has lived his life."

Song Wen asked: "What kind of information have you provided them?"

Dai Xiaoman recalled: "Basically everything is fine. The man who joined me told me that I don’t need to filter the information I collected. Sometimes a small piece of information may be useful to them. As long as I know who came to the police station, what happened, what case is being dealt with recently, I will report it to them."

"Once, Cheng Mo said casually. Recently, the anti-narcotics side was tasked with investigating new types of drugs. I told them about it and later got a reward."

"The time the police station updated its equipment, there was also a reward."

"Last year, there was a period of anti-pornography. I reported the news and the rewards were very generous."

"Also, on the day Xu Changying arrived, Cheng Mo talked to me, and I told it over there."

Song Wen looked at Dai Xiaoman, he was still wary of this woman: "Why did you choose to come first?"

If Dai Xiaoman is really like what she said, he has been kept in captivity and is loyal to the other party, it would not look like someone who would come to the police to surrender.

Dai Xiaoman's eyes changed slightly, and she whispered: "Before I was discovered, I didn't feel danger. But after it happened, I suddenly discovered that I am no longer young and beautiful, and I may be useless to the other party. ...I am not an optimistic person, and I have always had a foreboding of some upcoming dangers since I was young."

"Although I don't know who is behind the scenes, I know that the person who monitors and understands the police is definitely not a good person. I know so much... I think if they find me first, I might be ignorant. The earth disappeared from this world." After saying these few words, she picked up the cold water in front of her and took a sip, her fingers trembling uncontrollably.

"I was abandoned and there was no way to go."

Lu Siyu sorted out the information in the book, and Dai Xiaoman's story was like a fantasy, but it was feasible after careful consideration.

There is a strict management system in such an organization.

Each room is like a small orphanage.

Yu Niangniang is deliberately collecting these children, providing them with shelter, money, and inducement.

When the children grow up, they can kill, overwhelm, commit crimes, listen to news for her, or even use them as gifts to buy the rich and powerful.

These children are innocent, have no history, and the Three Views have not yet formed. Children who can be manipulated by them are much more precious than the terminally ill patients who can be used and discarded at will by Chen Yanqiu.

Song Wen looked at Lu Siyu, the two exchanged their eyes for a moment, and then went back and asked her: "Do you know anyone else who came out of Yu Niangniang in the same situation as you?"

Dai Xiaoman found out that Song Wen was like an insulator. No matter how pitiful she was, he was doing business, but he looked at Lu Siyu with gentle eyes.

Seeing this, she finally gave up, speeding up her speech and said: "We are all in one-line contact. Maybe there are girls I can think of when I see them, but I have not seen them in a few years, no You must recognize that those girls should also have new identities."

Lu Siyu asked a key question: "Do you know where the other underage children live now?"

Dai Xiaoman shook his head and looked at him: "I don't know where it is. It's probably like I was in the past. They live in a rabbit hole."

"Rabbit hole?" Song Wen repeated, sounding like a place in Alice in Wonderland.

Dai Xiaoman continued: "In the past we called it this way. Each cave has a number. There are countless such caves in the city, hidden in various communities. They often change locations and places, and move quickly if they cause suspicion. ."

Lu Siyu bit his nails and frowned slightly, sly rabbit Sanku.

These caves are scattered in the city. It seems that it is not easy for these children to find these people.

Song Wen asked: "You mentioned Yu Niangniang just now, do you know her identity?"

Dai Xiaoman trembled: "I only saw it once from a distance, or many years ago, it was a middle-aged woman. All I know is that she hired those people and raised us."

The children have no identities, but this woman and the aunts who take care of them cannot be without identities. They need to rent those houses, take care of the children's daily life, decide whether the children will stay, and make arrangements.

Dai Xiaoman's feelings about the three words Yu Niangniang are complicated, a little grateful and a little scared.He could feel it in her tone.

"Who is the other party who has been in contact with you?"

"Yes... a man, his voice is pretty good." Dai Xiaoman muttered a number. "When I dial this number, the other party will be prompted to shut down, but then he will call me."

"What does that man look like?"

"I don't remember clearly. The last time I saw him, it was a few years ago. I only remember that he was a tall man."

Lu Siyu wrote two characters for white whale, and then three characters for Yu Niangniang.

He still doesn't know whether the beluga is the person behind the fish empress, a parallel relationship, a cooperative relationship, or an employment relationship.

Through these children, Yu Niangniang can extend her tentacles to every direction in the city, high and low, and all walks of life.

The only certainty now is that the news that Dai Xiaoman has detected will be passed on to the Beluga.

Dai Xiaoman said this, bit his lip, looked at Song Wen, and reminded: "My brother is still with them."

Song Wen asked her: "Where is your brother now, do you know?"

Dai Xiaoman shook his head: "I don't know. I haven't seen him for two years. The last time I saw him was on the subway. I only know that he works on the second subway."

"Part-time job? What are they doing in the subway?" Song Wen immediately thought of Chen Yanqiu's "part-time job" before.

"Everything that can make money, they treat those things as tempering." Dai Xiaoman whispered, "Stealing, begging, or other things, maybe in the future, they will kill people."

Then she made an explanation: "Girls are different from boys. The aunt said that girls should be rich and boys should be poor. Girls can be raised, but boys need to go out to work. They have other things. A set of life style, believes in the weak and the strong. The last time I saw my brother, he happily told me that they would watch movies at night and watched violent movies. He stole three mobile phones that day. Ranked first in the group of children, what kind of rewards and praise he can get, he... his tone of voice was very proud."

It sounds like those boys were brainwashed more seriously.

They have no identity and cannot see the sky, just like maggots and mice underground.

Dai Xiaoman's eyes turned: "I have explained everything I should say, can you find my brother? I think... once they find out that I have turned myself in, my brother will become dangerous."

Song Wendao: "Tell me your brother's name, age, and all characteristics."

This is the line they can catch at the moment, and the line must be held firmly before the opponent reacts.

Dai Xiaoman is now out of the organization and outside, and her brother is still with those people, his identity is becoming more and more critical.

They need to associate people with identities.
