Chapter 39: A Rain

This night was exceptionally long.

When Qiu Ling came back to her senses, she found that her fingers were actually trembling.

She had been a police officer for several years. Because of her profession, she had participated in various cases. Whether it was a corpse with a tragic death or a murderer who had lost his humanity, Qiu Ling had seen them. She thought she had also tempered a strong heart. However, tonight, the content in this USB drive made her feel a chill throughout her body.

The chill seeped out from the top of her head and spread throughout her body along her blood vessels and meridians.

The USB drive was almost entirely photos, and there was a video that was clearly filmed secretly.

In these photos and videos, they were all girls, and they were locked in narrow, airtight rooms like livestock.

The girls in the photos were also changing, often with old faces disappearing and new faces joining.

Most of them had dull eyes and numb expressions, leaning against the wall one after another.

Qiu Ling had seen such scenes before. The crackdown on pornography and organized crime had never stopped, and she had also seen scenes where those who privately organized collective prostitution were caught. However, these girls were clearly not like that.

In the only video, the girl who looked like she was only ten, "My parents only have me as a daughter, don't sell me, please, don't sell me, let me go, I won't say anything..."

The next second, this girl was grabbed by her hair by a sturdy man, her head was lifted, and he raised his hand to slap her face seven or eight times.

"Cry, let you cry!" The man's fierce voice sounded like a devil.

The short twenty-second video ended here.

They were actually trafficking people!

When Lu Yan He woke up, he heard the sound of pattering rain outside the window.

He got up and opened the curtains.

Sure enough, it was raining outside.

The sky was dark, with only a layer of dim light, and the whole world was hidden in the rain curtain, leaving only a blurry outline.

The alarm clock rang on time.

Lu Yan He turned off the alarm and went to brush his teeth and wash his face.

Halfway through brushing, Yan Liang walked in.

"Morning." He greeted Lu Yan He with sleepy eyes and walked into the bathroom inside.

"Morning." Lu Yan He responded vaguely.

Rinsed his mouth and washed his face.

Yan Liang opened the door and said: "It's actually raining, can't run today."

"Yeah, you got up early in vain. Otherwise, take a nap?"

"Not sleeping, I'll practice some other items," Yan Liang said.

Lu Yan He looked at him with full respect and said: "You are amazing."

Yan Liang's persistence and self-discipline in sports were truly year after year, unshakable.

But in fact, although Yan Liang insisted on exercising every day, the muscles on his body were not the kind of fierce and strong look.

His streamlined muscles always made Li Zhibai very envious.

Of course, it was just envy.

If you want Li Zhibai, who is lazy to the bone, to exercise, unless you tell him there is a very beautiful girl at the entrance of the community, then he will run over at the fastest speed.

Yan Liang asked: "It's raining so hard, are you still going to school today?"

"Go, of course go," Lu Yan He said. "I have no reason not to go to school now."

He went out with an umbrella.

After this rain, the weather seemed to cool down, dispelling the heat that had not dissipated these days.

But one annoying thing about rain is that no matter how careful you walk, you will find that your shoes are wet at some point.

When Lu Yan He got on the bus, he felt the water seep in, and his socks seemed a bit wet.

He sat down at the back, put his umbrella under the seat, put on his headphones, and listened to English.

Wet shoes on his feet were very uncomfortable.

Lu Yan He sighed, could only endure the uncomfortable feeling, and continued to listen to English.

The bus stopped slowly at the station.

Lu Yan He looked up subconsciously.

He reacted belatedly that he was curious about whether the woman named He Ting had gotten on.

Because she got on at this station yesterday.

But she was not among the people getting on the bus.

She was not among the people getting on the bus at every station after that.

Arriving at school, Lu Yan He got off the bus, opened his umbrella, and felt inexplicably disappointed in his heart.

So after she stuffed the USB drive to him, she just patted her butt and left? How did she determine that he would definitely give the USB drive to Officer Qiu?

Lu Yan He was thinking about this in his head when something suddenly hit his umbrella.

He looked up.

Li Pengfei appeared on his left with a bright smile.

It was him who had just hit Lu Yan He's umbrella with his umbrella.

"Morning." Lu Yan He greeted.

"Did you watch the game last night?" Li Pengfei asked. "Liuren vs. Marseille."

"Didn't watch." Lu Yan He shook his head. "Reading."

Li Pengfei gasped: "Have you been reading all the time?"

"Yeah." Lu Yan He nodded.

Li Pengfei stared at him exaggeratedly: "Damn, really?"

"Really."

Li Pengfei: "I thought I studied for an hour, which was the first time in history. My dad was shocked and asked me what happened."

Lu Yan He: "... Your dad is quite funny."

"Otherwise, my dad never expected me to study well," Li Pengfei said. "It's also crazy, I have to be interrogated by him for reading a book, asking me what kind of stimulation I received."

"Then what are your dad's plans for you? If you don't go to university," Lu Yan He said.

"Send me abroad, of course," Li Pengfei said indifferently. "Of course, it's not the kind of school Chu Saiying went to. I have self-knowledge, I definitely can only go to a diploma mill. Then after graduating from university, I'll come back and continue to drift in my dad's company."

Lu Yan He: "With a mine at home, nothing to worry about."

"That's what I told my dad too. In junior high, my dad asked me what I wanted to do in the future if I didn't study well, and I said, I can be a parasite," Li Pengfei said. "Besides, anyway, my brother got into Zhenhua, and there is someone to inherit the family business. Isn't it good for me to be a parasite obediently? If I were also that amazing, wouldn't I have to fight my brother for the industry."

Lu Yan He: "... Then your brother has to thank you for giving up on yourself and not studying?"

"It's not that I can't say that," Li Pengfei nodded affirmatively. "I find it very interesting to talk to you, I can hear some real words from you."

Lu Yan He: "Although you are praising me, I always feel a bit insulted."

Li Pengfei laughed and said: "But isn't it a bet with Chen Qin now? If I surpass you in the next exam, at least it can prove that I still have this ability, just too lazy to work hard, right?"

"You have to surpass me first before saying this." Lu Yan He smiled.
