"I rember the faces of those two n, I rember, even if they turn to ashes, I won’t forget them." Those two n were disgusting, too disgusting. They hit and even tried to tear off my clothes. If it weren’t for that old woman who ca out, they would have had their way with .
Yang Chuxia looked at the girl gritting her teeth and began to suspect whether the girl had suffered serious humiliation. She glanced over at Sister-in-law Li.
Seeing Sister-in-law Li shake her head, she breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, that hadn’t happened, otherwise even slicing those two n into a thousand pieces wouldn’t be enough.
"Can you describe what those two n looked like? When the ti cos, there will be a county artist who will sketch them based on your description, and they will be hunted down throughout Mianyang County. Don’t worry, our Lord County Magistrate is a good official. He certainly won’t allow you to suffer in vain," Yang Chuxia said.
"Alright, I’ll tell you." The girl wiped her tears, ready to speak.
However, Yang Chuxia insisted she eat so food first, before talking, noticing the food brought by Sister-in-law Li on the table remained untouched.
While the girl was eating, Yang Chuxia had soone go and call for Ye Zi’an. None of the artists in the yan were as skilled as Brother An.
Soon, Ye Zi’an arrived, and Yang Chuxia let him stay behind the curtain before she spoke to the girl, "Now, you can speak. Try to be as clear as possible."
The girl nodded, "I rember the looks of those two n. If they were in front of now, I would recognize them at a glance. One was a bit fat, with lips that turned outward, and a big boil on his chin. His eyes were small and deeply sunken. The most notable feature was his ear area, where there was a lump of flesh. The other had a long scar near the corner of his eye..."
As she spoke, she added, "Oh right, when they locked up, there was also an old woman who said they should send away overnight, and that she would give them extra silver for it."
"Were there other people locked up with you?"
"No, I was the only one! But that old woman’s voice sounded a bit familiar to , I feel like I’ve heard it sowhere before." The girl recalled that she didn’t see the old woman as she was outside, but her voice was sowhat familiar, yet she couldn’t rember who it might be at the mont.
Hearing this, Yang Chuxia fell silent for a mont before Ye Zi’an from behind the curtain asked, "Does your family have any feuds with anyone?"
A pleasant voice ca from behind the curtain, and the girl was stunned before shaking her head, "Not that I’m aware of."
"Mm. This matter will be handled by the officials. You wait here at the governnt office, I will send people to your ho to let soone co to pick you up."
Yang Chuxia talked a bit more with the girl and consoled her so more before she left.
"My lady, I will send soone to Shoutao Village, don’t worry," Ye Zi’an said upon seeing her erge with a sowhat somber expression.
"Yes, I just can’t help thinking of the young girls’ trafficking case in Yangshu Village. I hope this isn’t another big case. Even though the case was solved last ti, the victims were still those girls."
Ye Zi’an had naturally thought of that as well. The year before last, before Mu Shaoling returned to the capital, he had talked to him about it, ntioning that when the Li Family was convicted, one of the charges was the young girls’ trafficking case, with irrefutable evidence. However, Mu Shaoling had his doubts about whether the Li Family was actually behind it because the evidence was just too perfect, so perfect that it seed like a travesty if the Li Family weren’t the culprits.
"First, let’s investigate. The girl ntioned that the old woman’s voice was familiar, right? It’s probably not a big case, but a personal one," he suggested.
Afterward, Ye Zi’an had soone go to Shoutao Village.
