Chapter 493: Who Would Save Her
Chapter 493 Who is Willing to Save Her?
Lao San killed Ah Sheng to win Wang Huilan’s trust but also because Ah Sheng’s slip-up revealed their plans. The girls learned before reaching their destination that they weren’t going to be factory workers but were being trafficked, which complicated his job. He deserved to die for his mistake.
Another reason was that Ah Sheng’s arms were already useless, and Lao San anticipated that there would be trouble on the road ahead. Ah Sheng wouldn’t be able to help him and would only hold him back!
So, Lao San crisply agreed to Wang Huilan’s request and disposed of Ah Sheng.
Whether Wang Huilan was sincerely joining the group didn’t matter; Lao San intended to make her willingly join.
Once on the main road, Lao San breathed a sigh of relief. He had seen military and police vehicles along the way and his heart had been in his throat the entire time.
Now that the military and police vehicles were no longer in sight, he was sure that those vehicles were just passing by and not targeting him.
Just as he had this thought, Lao San heard two "pop" sounds and felt the back of the vehicle drop; its speed forced to slow down.
It was obvious to Lao San that the tires had been shot out!
Up ahead, two patrol cars blocked the road, and soon many figures swiftly approached his vehicle from the fields on both sides.
"Stop the car, for inspection!"
"Get out of the car quickly! For inspection!"
Jiang Haidong’s heart raced wildly: It’s over, we’re going to be caught, what to do, what to do?
Looking at Lao San, he watched as Lao San stopped the car, and instead of getting out, turned around and rushed to the back of the van, grabbing Wang Huilan and placing a dagger against her throat.
When Lao San moved to the back, Wang Huilan sensed something was wrong and tried to hide behind the seats, but Lao San was specifically targeting her. Despite her efforts to hide, his speed was too fast, and he caught her.
Lao San held the dagger to Wang Huilan’s throat and dragged her to the window, shouting outside, "Look carefully, we have a hostage! Give us a vehicle to leave, or I’ll kill her!"
Seeing this, Jiang Haidong followed suit, grabbing a petite girl and holding a switchblade to her throat: "Right, we have a hostage too, you better let us through and let us drive away, or I will kill her!"
Ironically, the girl he grabbed was none other than Ah Mei, the one whom Ah Sheng had first targeted but was saved by Wang Huilan.
In truth, it was wrong for Jiang Haidong to follow Lao San’s example.
After all, Lao San was the leader of the Human Trafficking Group with blood on his hands; if he were caught, it would be the end for him.
But what about Jiang Haidong? This was his first time directly involved in trafficking women (the time he sold Jiang Mengyu, his wife Li Chunhua was the mastermind, and he barely lifted a finger).
So, even if he got caught, he would receive a sentence of just a few years. He didn’t need to take a hostage and follow Lao San.
Wang Huilan, taken hostage, had no choice but to cooperate. Although she had said she would rather die with Ah Sheng when she hit him, in reality, she did not want to die!
Ah Mei, taken by Jiang Haidong with a knife against her throat, was extremely frightened: "Why me again? I’m scared, don’t grab me."
She called out to her sisters in the car, "Hurry and save me!"
But no one was going to save her. When eating dinner, Ah Sheng grabbed her, and Wang Huilan saved her, but when Wang Huilan was caught by Ah Sheng, Ah Mei quietly left.
She didn’t even bother to bring Wang Huilan any dinner.
Who would want to save such an ungrateful person?
