399: Chapter 399: Forcibly Breaking Through the Rescue!
Thrilling Accident!
The voice was low and persuasive.
Such words proved that the child inside the house was definitely not his own.
In the dim light.
Wu Jie followed the search and rescue team, slowly moving toward the doorway.
Switch off the safety, chamber a round!
All three suspicious shanties nearby were prepared for a forced entry.
Bent over, Wu Jie silently picked up two stones, just in case.
The command from headquarters hadn’t come yet.
But Wu Jie heard a timid voice first.
“Grandpa, when can I go back?
There’s roll call at night, and if I’m not there, the teacher will definitely look for me!”
At the sound of this voice, Wu Jie immediately gestured to the assault team.
It was Yuan Zihan!!
No need to trudge through endless searching, success comes effortlessly!
He thought she had been abducted by a human trafficker, yet it turned out to be a junk collector who had brought her here.
No wonder the city-wide Skynet surveillance video, with its massive facial recognition, failed to find her.
She hadn’t gone far at all but was in an old goods yard close to the crime scene.
At this moment, Wu Jie’s heart surged with excitement.
He was desperate to rush in.
However, he had no idea what the situation inside was like.
Any carelessness could endanger Yuan Zihan.
A flexible whip-like cable camera was slowly pushed into a crevice of the shanty with a bamboo pole.
With the help of the video transmitted back by the camera, Wu Jie saw Yuan Zihan.
Of course, he also saw the extremely simple interior of the house.
At that moment, Yuan Zihan was sitting on a bed constructed from piled bricks, with wooden planks and bedding placed on top.
An emaciated, hunched old man with white hair sat on a small stool.
He was using a plastic basin to clean some small toys.
The house had no appliances to speak of, and a candle burned atop a short square table.
The weak candlelight cast on a wall.
There was a map hung on the wall, pierced with many holes from thumbtacks.
Next to the map, a severely yellowed old photo seemed to be a baby’s full moon picture.
Was this old man Yuan Zihan’s grandfather?
Wu Jie didn’t think so at all!
Otherwise, why would he talk about sending Yuan Zihan back tomorrow.
Bang!
A muffled sound.
The potent assault team kicked the door down ferociously and barged in like a hunting tiger, toppling the white-haired old man.
At the same time, the firepower team entered diagonally to swiftly check if there were other people inside.
Wu Jie didn’t hesitate; he burst forward like an explosion, rushing into the house and scooping Yuan Zihan into his arms.
He covered her ears and shielded her eyes.
“Don’t move!”
“Let me go!!”
“Let me go!!”
The white-haired old man struggled frantically, but he was quickly subdued with a wrist lock.
The dark muzzle of a gun pressed directly against the back of his head.
Finally, the white-haired old man stopped struggling and shouting.
Handcuffs and leg irons were quickly snapped on, and he was dragged out of the shack without delay.
Wu Jie, guarding Yuan Zihan, held her tight and kept comforting her:
“It’s all right now!
Big brother is here, don’t look!
Don’t think about anything!”
“Big brother brought people to make a game for you!
Lin is waiting for you!
I’ll take you back right away!”
“Zihan is the best, the most obedient.
Will you play the game with big brother after we go back?
Today’s game is over!”
…
Forcible assault!
Quick apprehension!
It’s right to deter and capture the criminal, but the scene was far too terrifying for Yuan Zihan, who was still very young.
So, Wu Jie held her close to keep her from seeing such a scene.
Shortly after taking her out of the shack, a medic from the search and rescue team quickly filled Yuan Zihan’s ears with cotton to block the sound.
The child was too young, and her tender psyche could easily be traumatized, leaving psychological scars.
The old man with white hair, now captured, was no longer struggling; he was simply bawling his eyes out.
“I was wrong!
I’m guilty!!”
“I shouldn’t have taken her!”
“But I couldn’t accept it!
My daughter has been kidnapped for ten years now!
Ten years!”
“I’ve looked everywhere, I’ve gone to so many places, but I haven’t found her!”
“Can you help me?
Please help me find my daughter!
I’m begging you!”
…
Wu Jie didn’t linger; he hurriedly left with Yuan Zihan in his arms.
Outside the old goods yard, an ambulance was already waiting.
Wu Jie held Yuan Zihan as they got into the ambulance, and the medical staff immediately closed the door.
“Zihan, we are going home!
What about having the pretty sister here check on your health, okay?”
“You were really good at hiding during hide and seek today; everyone couldn’t find you.
I’m awesome, right?
I found you right away!”
“Come on!
Let the sister check you, to see if you caught a cold from the cold today!”
…
Wu Jie loosened his grip on Yuan Zihan, comforting her while trying to make her laugh.
Yuan Zihan pouted with a wronged expression.
“The old man with white hair is so pitiful, he went to so many places and couldn’t find his daughter!”
Wu Jie smiled and said, “Don’t worry, didn’t brother bring a lot of friends over to help?
They will help the old man find his daughter!”
“Brother, are you getting married?
Today, I heard Lin say so.
Why don’t you marry Lin?”
Yuan Zihan asked innocently.
Wu Jie, patiently and with a smile, asked,
“Brother is getting married, and that’s why I came to find you to be my flower child, remember?
You promised me before, didn’t you?
As for why it’s not Lin, that’s because brother already had someone special in his heart before he met her!”
While talking, Wu Jie glanced at the doctor making hand signs.
“Zihan, brother wants to take you to the hospital for a check-up, to see if you’re a healthy and well-behaved child!”
“Why?”
“Because of the heavy rain last night!
Crawling around during hide and seek, who knows if you got hurt?”
“Okay then!
I will listen to brother!”
Yuan Zihan nodded obediently.
The ambulance siren wailed as it sped toward the hospital.
Meanwhile, after the suspect had been arrested, he was naturally detained for investigation without delay.
And with the emergency over, the massive police forces mobilized could finally stand down.
At Tianyuan Women and Children’s Hospital.
Yuan Zihan was quickly arranged to undergo checks to ensure her physical and mental health and that she hadn’t been poisoned.
When Wu Jie had a moment, he immediately returned Tang Xiao’s calls, of which there had been several.
“The child is fine for now, she’s undergoing a check-up at the hospital.
I really troubled you tonight, if it weren’t for you stepping in, we wouldn’t have had such a big turnout!”
Tang Xiao said annoyedly, “Do you really need to say that to me?
I saw the videos online, you might as well get yourself checked out at the hospital too!”
“Ah?
What video?” Wu Jie asked in astonishment.
Tang Xiao snorted with a chuckle, “Of course, it’s the one of you crouching to examine the clues, then running out of the dump with the child in your arms!
While there’s a lot of praise and compliments, taking care of your health is critical, don’t get injured or infected!”
“Alright!
I’ll get checked out right now, and please express my thanks to all the friends from various sectors who assisted us.
If there are any expenses, just put them on my tab!”
“Enough!
What’s with the talk of money!
I’m already getting ready to sleep at home, take care of yourself!”
After saying this, Tang Xiao hung up the phone.
Wu Jie looked at his clothes and shoes; indeed, they were as dirty and smelly as if he had been fighting with mud.
But at this time, where could I go to bathe and change clothes?
And I’m not in the mood for that anyway!
Just as I was about to call Lin Yuan, she had already arrived with Dean Zhang, accompanied by police officers.
“Zihan is undergoing a comprehensive examination, but I estimate there shouldn’t be any problem!
I’ve been coaxing her that it’s all a game, I don’t know if she’ll actually believe that!”
Changing the subject, Wu Jie said in a grave tone, “However, to avoid any traumatic associations, I personally think we should take her away from the orphanage for a while, to let her forget about this incident!”
Dean Zhang nodded repeatedly, “That’s a good idea, but no one has adopted this child yet!
Tonight’s incident is indeed my fault, I should have carefully inspected the perimeter wall after the heavy rain to prevent Zihan from slipping away!”
“Don’t be too hard on yourself!” Lin Yuan sighed, “At most, I can accompany her tomorrow, but I have to start attending classes the day after and won’t be able to take care of her at all!”
Wu Jie immediately stated, “Then leave it to me!
Since she seems to trust me more, I’ll take her out these days to have some fun, aiming to completely forget about this incident!”
Having said that, Lin Yuan pulled Wu Jie aside.
“I really can’t thank you and your wife enough for tonight!
Otherwise, we couldn’t have mobilized so many resources so quickly for an overnight search!”
Wu Jie shook his head, “No need to be so polite!
Zihan was lucky this time, but if she’d encountered human traffickers, she wouldn’t be easy to find, so we must learn a serious lesson from this accident!”
“I’ll start by giving some money to the orphanage to repair the perimeter wall to prevent landslides, then arrange for additional surveillance equipment to be installed, to strictly prevent similar incidents from happening again!”
“Moreover, with the advancements in smart wearable technologies, I’ll talk to Tang Xiao about investing two billion yuan from the Tianyuan Charity Fund we established; the first thing could be to equip all the orphans with smart bracelets.”
“They can track location in real time and monitor physiological data dynamically.
If anyone goes missing, an alarm can be triggered swiftly!”
Lin Yuan responded, “Such a grand charitable project can only be achieved by you.
I might be less capable, but I’m willing to cooperate to the fullest.
Just tell me what you need me to do!”
Wu Jie took a deep breath and said, “The most urgent matter right now is to ensure Yuan Zihan’s physical and mental health, and we must not let this incident leave a psychological scar.
From tonight on, let’s take good care of her!”
As they were talking, the attending physician ran over in a hurry, looking anxious.
“It’s not good!
The child’s routine blood test shows that the white blood cell count is abnormally high!”
“We have ruled out the common cold and fever.
We need to do a bone marrow biopsy to diagnose whether she has leukemia!”
“Which of you can make the decision?”
Wu Jie and Lin Yuan were both momentarily stunned.
“Leu…
Leukemia?”
Lin Yuan felt weak in the knees, and everything went dark before her eyes.
If Wu Jie hadn’t reacted quickly, she would have almost fallen to the ground.
Wu Jie held Lin Yuan and immediately pointed to Dean Zhang, who was standing not far away with the police officers.
“Zihan is an orphan, and Dean Zhang is her legal guardian.
Quick, get her to sign the papers for the examination!”
Wu Jie steadied Lin Yuan to bring her back to her senses.
“Doctor, there won’t be any issues with the routine blood test, right?
How could such a good child get leukemia?”
Lin’s face fell, it truly felt like the sky was collapsing.
“At present, it’s only suspected.
To make a diagnosis, a bone marrow biopsy is a must!”
The attending physician immediately went to get Dean Zhang’s signature.
None of them could stay put any longer and hurriedly followed.
Two o’clock in the morning.
In anxious anticipation, the examination report finally came out…
