Chapter 660: Chapter 660: The Original Wife Sold by Her Husband 6

At this moment, a young nurse entered the ward to check Old Ding and Er Mazi’s health.

While the nurse was taking Er Mazi’s temperature, who was unconscious, the police sternly said to Old Ding, "Old Ding, honesty leads to leniency, resistance leads to severity."

Old Ding was both scared and terrified, yet he stubbornly denied, "I don’t know anything, I’m just an ordinary citizen, you’ve got the wrong person."

The nurse suddenly spat at him, cursing, "As if everyone doesn’t know you’re a human trafficker, even struck by lightning, you’re still stubborn like a dead duck."

"I’m telling you, everyone in our hospital knows you’re a trafficker."

"People who do bad things, even heaven is watching. Do you know why lightning strikes you and not others? It’s because you’ve done too many evil deeds, harmed countless innocent people, even heaven couldn’t bear to watch, so it struck you two traffickers."

Old Ding’s expression was a bit flustered, "You...you all...you’re indulging in superstitions, breaking the law."

"Bah, you’re still trying to threaten us, why don’t you hear that even at the Dragon King Temple in the suburbs, people are offering incense, and those folks are already out of power."

The nurse saw Old Ding’s stubbornness, and after checking Er Mazi, she couldn’t be bothered to check Old Ding. She nodded to the two police officers, took her temperature and blood pressure meter, and left the ward.

The two officers interrogated Old Ding for a day but couldn’t get any useful clues.

In the evening, Er Mazi awoke, and upon seeing the police, in a panic blurted out the name Lai Litiu.

"That woman was sold to us by Lai Litiu’s brother, for fifty yuan."

"Who is Lai Litiu?" the officer asked.

"I don’t know, I only know his nickname is Lai Litiu."

"And who is Lai Litiu’s brother?"

"No idea."

After receiving a deathly stare from Old Ding, Er Mazi dared not say anything else, no matter how the police questioned him, he knew nothing.

The guesthouse was quiet for two days.

Nothing happened.

On the third evening, several tall rural men suddenly moved into the guesthouse, pulling three hand-pulled carts, each loaded with burlap sacks.

A police officer quietly glanced inside and saw the burlap sacks were filled with chestnuts.

These were chestnuts the villagers had gathered from the mountains, brought to sell at the supply and sales center in Imperial City, but a car broke down halfway, and repairing it took a lot of time, causing them to arrive after the center had closed.

Their introduction letter was from a remote small mountain village over a hundred miles away from Imperial City, a village close to a primeval forest that indeed harbored various wild fruits, dried fruits, mushrooms, and other mountain treasures.

As they stepped into the guesthouse, they were immediately observed by hidden police officers, but after seeing nothing suspicious, the officers withdrew their attention.

But in Yuan Chun’s mind, the system excitedly shouted, "Host, they’re here, they’re here, that bearded man is Old Ding’s biological brother."

"You recognize him?"

"Host, he sneaked into the hospital last night to see Old Ding, seeing his brother turned into a human wreck, Ding the Second indeed resented you, he thinks it’s your fault his brother became a wreck, and wants to kill you."

"It’s true, I did it."

Yuan Chun took a bite of an apple, eating it with relish, "System, monitor this group for me, I want these traffickers to taste what it’s like to be struck by lightning."
