Chapter 227.

Huizhong Hostel.

“Let’s go, Xiaoya.” Gu Lei thoughtfully carried Tan Xiaoya’s suitcase as the two of them checked out of the room and came out of the front door.

Raising his hand, he beckoned.

A yellow bus stopped.

Gu Lei helped Tan Xiaoya get on the bus first before placing the suitcase at her feet and telling the bus driver an address.

He himself beckoned another yellow car to stop, carrying a suitcase into the car, waving his hand, signaling to follow the car in front.

The two yellow carriages, one after the other, came towards the 16th store pier.

In fact, it is possible to go to Hangzhou by train, but Gu Lei said that it is better to take the train than to take a boat, take a boat to the sea, and also enjoy the sea view.

In this season, the sea is basically free of typhoons, safe and smooth, and it’s safer to take a foreign ship.

Tan Xiaoya grew up so big, has not gone out to sea yet, by Gu Lei so said, naturally nodded and agreed.

On the pier.

Gu Lei and Tan Xiaoya boarded a connecting boat.

“I didn’t expect that what Gu Lei lured Tan Xiaoya onto was actually this Canadian cargo ship!” What Cheng Mo also never expected was this.

Gu Lei had actually brought Tan Xiaoya on the Canadian freighter that Lin Huarong had provided to “sell women” to the South Seas.

Obviously, Gu Lei was planning to lure Tan Xiaoya onto the ship and then sell her to the South Seas.

“Boss, we only have a few people, we don’t have enough power!” Lu Le said, “There must be more than thirty captains plus sailors on the ship, they must be carrying guns.”

“Go, make a call, call out our secret service detachment, the training base asked what for, just tell them that they are out for a practical drill.” Cheng Mo instructed.

“Understood.”

“There’s still half an hour left if we sail, if Gu Lei doesn’t want to leave Shanghai, he’ll definitely find a way to get ashore within that half hour ……”

“Inspector Cheng, have you greeted the top?” Lin Huarong asked cautiously.

“Of course, but we’re not here today to catch ‘human smuggling and trafficking’, we’re here to rescue my wife’s cheated best friend, Miss Tan Xiaoya, and if there exists a trafficking girl to the South Seas as you said on the boat, we’ll rescue her by the way, and if there isn’t one, then forget about it, and don’t mention it to anyone, understand? ” Cheng Mo reminded.

“Understood.” Lin Huarong and the others nodded, this was two cases colliding together, at least this Tan Xiaoya being cheated was conclusive.

As expected.

After a quarter of an hour had passed since Gu Lei and Tan Xiaoya boarded the boat, a small boat took the next person from the ship and sailed towards the shore.

Wasn’t the one standing on the boat Gu Lei, who had gone and returned after boarding the ship? “Arrest him!”

Cheng Mo waved his hand and Lin Huarong and the others quickly rushed onto the pier and surrounded Gu Lei who had just stepped onto the pier, blocking all his retreats.

“Mr. Gu Lei, it is now suspected that you are involved in trafficking women, please come with us.” With a wave of Cheng Mo’s hand, an agent under Lei Gang and Lin Huarong stepped forward and detained Gu Lei directly.

“You, you guys arrested the wrong person, I didn’t abduct and sell women ……”

“No, then who is the girl you just sent on board?”

“She is my girlfriend!”

“Your girlfriend, you sent her on the boat, but you got off the boat and left secretly, why is that?” Cheng Mo questioned.

“I, I didn’t sneak away, I just went ashore to get something ……”

“This boat is less than ten minutes from departure, you want to fetch something, we help you to fetch, to ensure that you can catch the boat?” Cheng Mo sneered.

“I, I ……” Gu Lei was held down and knelt on the ground, his forehead was all beads of sweat oozing out of nervousness, and he simply couldn’t answer. “Boss, people are coming!”

Lu Le arrived with Liu Haisan, Fan Xueyi and others fully armed.

“Board the ship!”

“Yes!”

A receiving barge that had already been arranged for a long time quickly sailed over, and then, notifying the dock side, gave the cargo ship a signal light to pause its departure from the harbor.

The barge quickly sailed over towards the cargo ship in the center of the river.

In the face of the armed patrolmen, the sailors on the cargo ship did not dare to resist, and were directly taken over by Cheng Mo and the others who quickly occupied the deck.

Although the ship was loaded with smuggled goods, but the captain is not stupid, this is not at sea, as long as you can run away, everything will be no problem.

This is still in the Huangpu River, there is still a distance from the sea, even if the ship is now trying to run out of the sea will be stopped by the British warships on the river.

Then the consequences will be more serious.

Of course, this also has to do with Cheng Mo and other people move quickly, hard attitude, after all, dare to directly on the hands of the foreigners to beat up the Chinese people are not rare.

Especially on the deck of the two tall, lying on the ground holding the thighs, screaming louder than the sound of killing pigs sailors can illustrate the problem.

These Chinese in the uniforms of the rent-a-cop patrolmen were really daring to make a move, and they were all armed.

All of them were looking for money and didn’t want to throw their lives away.

Therefore, Captain Ellis cooperated and agreed to Cheng Mo’s request to board the ship for inspection.

Cheng Mo also made it clear that he didn’t check smuggled goods, only people, so he couldn’t just block people’s path to wealth, that would be a deadly feud.

With the cooperation of the captain, the next thing was much better.

Escort Gu Lei to find Tan Xiaoya.

Soon, they found Tan Xiaoya, who was unconscious and tied up with her hands and feet and a cloth stuffed in her mouth, in a small warehouse room under the cabin.

Apparently, Gu Lei had fed her medicine and then tied her up and put her here.

In addition to the bottom of the cabin, a compression chamber, closed at least forty or fifty girls, the largest seventeen or eighteen years old, the smallest eleven or twelve years old.

In addition to girls, there are boys, boys are relatively small, the largest is only eleven or twelve years old, the smallest is only five or six years old.

Boys are less, these sold to the South Seas, generally are rich people adopt, as borer righteous son, as long as not too stupid, the road did not die of disease, basically can still have a good future.

But those girls can be miserable, basically end up being sold to the pleasure grounds, and even some will be sold to the circus.

The ones sold to the circus were the most miserable.

“Ellis, I don’t care how many prohibited goods are on the ship, that’s a customs issue, but these children, the Bureau of Public Works expressly forbids the trafficking of women and children, I’ll have to take all of these people away, no problem, right?” Cheng Mo said directly.

Captain Ellis knew that if he didn’t agree, he himself would be in trouble, although he was a Canadian, but violating the decree of the Bureau of Public Works, he would also be sentenced to jail.

If he pleaded guilty with a good attitude, and actively cooperated with the witnesses and provided clues to solve the case, in the end, as long as the Bureau of Public Works did not prosecute, he paid some fines, and the matter would be over.

Therefore, he wisely chose to nod his head and agree.

So, all the staff on board who didn’t belong to this cargo ship were all taken on board the barge and disembarked.

The rescued children were registered with the relevant rescue system, as for Gu Lei and the unconscious Tan Xiaoya, they were brought directly back to the old gate arrest room.
