Chapter 311 Who is the Human Trafficker?

Chapter 311 Who is the Human Trafficker?

Those who are chosen by their teacher Chen must be of good character, otherwise Teacher Chen would not teach them moves. The group couldn't help but think that things might not be as they thought.

When the tall boy wanted to ask something else, his companion stopped him. His companion was worried that the tall boy's temper might cause more trouble, and what if he not only failed to resolve the conflict but also caused an even bigger conflict?

Another baby-faced boy stepped forward and said, "Young man, we just arrived here and don't know what happened. Could you please tell us again?"

Xu Xuan twitched his lips as he looked at the man who called him "little brother." If he wasn't mistaken, he should be older than the man, right? But Xu Xuan didn't care about that and said, "Didn't you all already know? And your companion, he wanted to fight me right away."

The baby-faced man, still smiling, said, "He's always been impulsive. I apologize on his behalf and to you, little brother. We just heard what the onlookers were saying, and we don't know if it's true or not. Our teacher taught us that we should never listen to hearsay and that we should be able to distinguish right from wrong."

"Aren't you afraid that what I'm saying isn't true?"

The baby-faced man smiled and said, "I believe you." He trusted Chen Feng's judgment.

"Since you've put it that way, then I'll tell you." Xu Xuan was just a little dissatisfied with the fact that the group had just listened to what the onlookers said. Although he still didn't like them, since they had asked, Xu Xuan told them what he and Murong Chen knew.

After Xu Xuan finished speaking, Murong Chen said, "That's how it is, as Xu Xuan said. If nothing unexpected happens, these two should be human traffickers."

"Young master, how can you say that?" Upon hearing Xu Xuan say that he was a human trafficker, the couple panicked for a moment and immediately became displeased.

"This is clearly our child, so how come we're the ones who are accused of child trafficking?"

"What proof do you have that this child is yours? And that you are not human traffickers?" Murong Chen said, "If you can't provide any evidence, then I'll have to assume you are human traffickers."

"You're being completely unreasonable," one of the onlookers couldn't help but say. "We can all testify to that."

“We’ve been here watching from beginning to end. This couple are the child’s parents, not human traffickers.”

Murong Chen looked at the person who spoke and said, "Are you sure? If he is a human trafficker, then what you're saying means you're an accomplice of a human trafficker."

The speaker was taken aback. Although he didn't think the couple were human traffickers, upon hearing Murong Chen's words, he said, "I was just watching the show. How did this get me involved? How did I become an accomplice of human traffickers?"

"Putting aside the fact that they are not human traffickers, I don't even know them."

Murong Chen said, "Since you're not sure, don't talk nonsense, otherwise... you might really become an accomplice of human traffickers."

The man immediately stopped talking nonsense and obediently watched the show.

Murong Chen then turned his attention back to the couple and said, "Please produce the evidence now."

Because of what Murong Chen had just said, everyone around was afraid that they would be accused of being accomplices of human traffickers. Although they sympathized with the couple, no one spoke up for them anymore.

After all, they just wanted to watch the show and didn't want to get burned themselves.

Seeing this, the human trafficker couple gritted their teeth, but they couldn't say anything, otherwise it would violate their image as honest people. So they continued to say with pitiful expressions, "Young master, tell me, what evidence do you want?"

"The child's birth certificate, and the notarized identity documents issued by the government."

The human traffickers were speechless, saying, "This... young master, who would carry such an important item with them when they go out?"

Xu Xuan said, "I know you didn't bring it with you, so just take us to your house to see it."

The human traffickers refused without hesitation, saying, "No way." If they were allowed to go to their home, their scheme would be exposed immediately.

"Oh? Why are you in such a hurry to refuse?"

The human traffickers said, "Our house is small and dilapidated, and we can't accommodate so many people."

"You don't need to entertain me, just check my identity documents."

"Our son lost his identity document before, and we haven't had time to go to the government to get a replacement."

Murong Chen's sneer deepened, and he said, "So that's how it is. It's alright, I have another way."

“Then take us to see the area around your house. Since you say that this Xiaobao is your son, your neighbors must know. As long as your neighbors can prove that he is your son, I will not meddle in other people’s business.”

“That won’t work either.” The couple, their faces beaded with cold sweat, said, “We just moved here recently and we’re not familiar with our neighbors. Besides, none of them have ever seen my son, so they can’t vouch for us.”

"Tsk," Xu Xuan said, "I remember you guys just said your family had always been in Luoyang, how come you've suddenly changed your story to saying you just moved here from somewhere else?"

People around them noticed something was amiss and started discussing whether the couple was really lying.

The human traffickers looked even more panicked; the situation was now turning against them.

The woman said, "But this is our son. I almost lost my life giving birth to him. Now that he's disobedient, people are doubting that I'm his biological mother and even calling me a human trafficker."

The woman cried as she spoke, and finally knelt down in front of Xu Xuan and Murong Chen, saying, "Young masters, you are good people, please give our child back to us. My husband and I only have this one child."

The honest man also knelt down in front of Xu Xuan and said, "My wife has been so worried about the children, and now she's being suspected... It's all my fault."

The two of them were crying and talking, looking quite pitiful.

Xu Xuan and Murong Chen showed no pity whatsoever; instead, they wanted to roll their eyes. The couple's acting was just too bad. Xu Xuan said, "Alright, tell me how old this child is this year, where he has any birthmarks, and what his name is."

Xu Xuan's question was even more tricky than Murong Chen's. The human traffickers were stunned and hesitated for a while before saying, "My son is seven years old this year. He has no birthmarks... He has no birthmarks on his body. His name is Xiaobao."

Xu Xuan asked Xiao Bao, "Xiao Bao, is it as they said?"

"No." Xiao Bao shook his head frantically and said, "Xiao Bao just turned six years old this year. Xiao Bao is my nickname, and I have a birthmark."

The woman quickly added, "Yes, yes, there is a birthmark. I must have misremembered."

"You can't even remember if your own child has a birthmark?" Xu Xuan mocked. "Then tell me again, where is Xiao Bao's birthmark?"

"Yes, yes..." The woman stammered for a long time, unable to give a coherent answer.

"I don't think you know anything about this, do you?"

Xiao Bao rolled up his sleeves again and said to Xu Xuan, "Xiao Bao's birthmark is here. Xiao Bao doesn't recognize this bad guy at all."
