C9 Human Traffickers

He didn't have any valuables or secrets, and he wasn't afraid to touch them.

From behind the half-closed wooden door came the conversation of a man and a woman, and the smell of food. The new tenant had indeed moved in.

Qiao Lin opened the two suitcases and looked through them. Most of his things were inside, but the only thing missing was something that was very important to him.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Qiao Lin quickly got up and knocked on the half-open door.

Soon, a young man in a tank top and shorts opened the door, "Who are you looking for?"

Shouter seemed to be a little impatient.

"Sorry to bother you. I used to be a tenant here. I forgot something and came to pick it up. I wonder if you can let me in." Qiao Lin tried his best to maintain a good attitude. After all, this house belonged to someone else. If he wanted to go in and get something now, he would be asking for a favor.

"What is it?" At this moment, a woman's voice came from inside the house. Soon, a woman in a red nightdress came out from the house and stood behind the man, looking at Qiao Lin with half of her face out, "I heard from the landlady that the last tenant was chased out without paying the rent. If you need anything, just look for the landlady. Why are you looking for us?"

Qiao Lin wanted to call the landlady, but his phone ran out of battery, "My phone is out of battery. Can you help me call the landlady?"

"If it's out of battery, then wait for it to be out. Don't bother us," The man closed the door snappily.

"The sound of the door slamming scared Yu so much that he shrunk behind Qiao Lin.

Qiao Lin squatted down to comfort Yu before knocking on the door again.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

If too much time had passed, it would be difficult to find anything.

This time, it was the woman in the nightgown who opened the door. She looked impatient when she saw Qiao Lin, "Didn't I tell you to look for the landlord? Why don't you understand?"

"I've left my 'girlfriend' here. I'll take it and leave. Otherwise, do you want to leave it for your boyfriend to use?" Without waiting for the woman to agree, Qiao Lin squeezed into the room.

The young man was also stunned when he saw him. He wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

The room was not big, and there was not much room left for a bed. Qiao Lin went straight to the cabinet beside the bed, took out the key to unlock the lock and opened the drawer.

The things were still there. It was a notebook with a yellowed cover and a square cardboard box.

He took out the items and waved them at the man and woman in the room. "I found the items. Sorry for the trouble."

It was indeed wrong to barge into someone else's house, so Qiao Lin quickly apologized after taking the things.

The two of them did not say anything when they saw that the things were not theirs.

Qiao Lin came out of the house with his things and put his notebook in the suitcase. He then squatted down and opened the cardboard box. It was a man's watch.

Seeing this, Qiao Lin heaved a sigh of relief. He closed the box and put it in the compartment of his suitcase. Then, he dragged the two suitcases with one hand and carried Yu with the other as he walked downstairs.

It was a little difficult to walk down the stairs. Fortunately, after experiencing the darkness once, Yu was not afraid anymore.

Since Qiao Lin's residence was gone, it seemed that he could only go to the hotel for the night and look for a house tomorrow.

Qiao Lin asked for a room at a nearby hotel. After settling his luggage, he carried the sleepy Yu and rushed to the police station.

However, he did not walk far before he felt that something was not right. There seemed to be someone following behind him.

At first, he thought it was an illusion. When he turned around and saw a few young women pointing at him and rushing toward him, he instinctively ran away.

"Catch him." Seeing that he was going to run, the women shouted to the pedestrians on the street, "He is a human trafficker with a child."
