Chapter 115 Human Traffickers
Looking at the gang members chasing after them with guns in the distance,
Raphael instinctively raised his hands and whispered a word of advice:
"Li Yuan, don't get involved with her. You'll only get yourself into trouble if you do."
However, looking at the woman clinging to his leg...
Li Yuan ultimately couldn't move a step.
Putting everything else aside, what he hates most in his life is this group of human traffickers.
At this moment, four gangsters caught up.
They pointed their guns at Li Yuan and Raphael and said:
"Mind your own business! Get lost!"
The leader grabbed the woman by the hair and dragged her back to the alley they had just run out of.
Just as Li Yuan was considering how to take action,
Another gang member suddenly looked Li Yuan up and down with great interest.
He asked curiously:
"Are you here for tourism?"
Before Raphael could speak, Li Yuan took the initiative to start a conversation:
"That's right, I'm here for tourism."
The man was overjoyed and waved to the person beside him, saying:
"Take him back too!"
As he spoke, he looked at Raphael with a fierce expression and said:
"Go back and prepare a ransom of $10, or don't blame me for killing you!"
He gestured towards the last gang member:
"Diego, you wait here."
Raphael was completely stunned.
He never expected that bringing Li Yuan here to shop would lead to this kind of situation.
He quickly explained:
"Please wait a moment, my name is Raphael, I'm an exorcist, and he also..."
Before Raphael could finish speaking, a gun was pressed against his head.
The armed gangster said, word by word:
"Stop talking nonsense! Even if God came, he'd still have to pay a ransom!"
Li Yuan remained calm and spoke to Raphael in English:
"Come pick up the extract in two hours, then go directly to the airport and wait for me."
Raphael's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing this, and he was speechless.
The gangsters didn't understand English, but judging from Li Yuan's expression, they thought he was comforting a friend.
He smiled and said to Li Yuan:
"That's right, talk to him a bit more, make sure he has the money ready, or I'll shoot you!"
They acted with complete impunity, showing no regard for the local police.
After all, it's possible that police officers' salaries are paid by drug lords and gangs.
Li Yuan switched back to Spanish and said to the man:
"Okay, don't worry, the ransom will be here in two hours at most."
"Hey, you're pretty well-behaved, then I won't beat you up."
He then poked Li Yuan with the butt of his gun and said:
"Come on, let's go back and sit down."
Li Yuan remained expressionless, but secretly made a mental note of the man.
After passing through the black market, walk down a long, dark alley.
The group arrived at the place where they were holding the "goods".
In an empty room, four gang members were sitting together drinking and chatting.
In a cell separated by steel bars, there were five or six women of different skin colors.
The woman who had just escaped was among them.
However, she was already lying on the ground, barely alive, after being beaten.
"You can go in too, pretty boy."
The man gave Li Yuan a push, then said with a smile:
"This is a special treatment for you; you can play with whichever one you like."
"Oh, you're actually a pretty nice person."
Li Yuan mentally complained, then, under the other person's gaze,
He opened the locked cell and went inside on his own.
At this moment, one of the gangsters suddenly spoke up, asking curiously:
"Dade, what brings a man back with you?"
"I think he's a tourist; maybe I can squeeze some money out of him."
Thinking about the ransom that was about to be in his hands, Dade grinned and laughed:
"Haha, what a sucker! His friend and I asked for $10!"
The others became interested upon hearing this.
After all, a pretty and clean young girl,
It would only be worth about $15,000 if sold to the neighbor.
Those currently imprisoned with Li Yuan,
Sold to the neighbor, it would only be worth about $1500 to $5000.
Kidnapping for ransom is actually the most profitable business, it's just that it's hard to come by.
After all, truly wealthy people don't come here for tourism.
One of them looked at Dade with concern:
"Won't someone who can come up with $10 cause us trouble?"
"Don't worry."
Dade didn't finish his sentence; he just winked at the man, clearly intending to kill the hostage.
Li Yuan ignored the gangs outside.
Instead, he curiously observed the several women in the cell.
He wasn't in a hurry to act, because he wanted to wait until the Raphael deal was over before he could leave.
Looking at the blonde woman lying on the ground, who seemed to have regained some strength, Li Yuan asked:
"You don't look like a local."
"My name is Nika... I'm from Poland..."
Li Yuan asked curiously, "So you were scammed while traveling here?"
Nika shook her head and quietly recounted how she had been tied up.
Nika had originally planned to go to America with her best friend to work and earn money.
But they were targeted by people from the travel agency.
They, who were in cahoots with human trafficking groups, suggested that it would be cheaper for the two of them to transfer to Mexico.
Nika believed it and did as she was told.
In Mexico, however, he was captured by human trafficking organizations as soon as he stepped off the plane.
Her best friend was tragically hit and killed by a car while trying to escape.
She has been locked up here for many days.
I managed to escape today because the guards weren't looking.
Unexpectedly, he was still easily caught.
After listening to the other party's story, Li Yuan
He frowned, pondering how to effectively rescue these people.
He inquired curiously:
Do you know where your passport is?
"In the hands of a man named Vadim, he is the leader of this group."
Does he come every day?
Upon hearing Li Yuan's words, Nika's body trembled involuntarily.
Then he closed his eyes and nodded:
"He comes to torment me every day..."
Li Yuan nodded, having made up his mind.
Li Yuan, who originally intended to charge straight out, decided to take a gentler approach.
Try not to make too much noise so as not to disturb others.
To rescue these people, we need to get their passports; otherwise, they will be caught again if they try to escape.
However, just as he was preparing to make the first move and deal with these small fry,
Suddenly, a series of footsteps came from outside the door.
A middle-aged man in a suit, with his blond hair neatly combed, slowly walked in.
He looked at Li Yuan in the cell with some surprise, then cursed:
"Who the hell kidnapped a man? Don't you know men are the least valuable?"
At this moment, Dade, standing to the side, explained with a fawning expression:
"Mr. Vadim, he's worth $10!"
"What?"
Vadim was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then frowned and reprimanded Deed:
"An Asian man worth $10? Are you stupid or am I stupid?"
Dade was also taken aback for a moment.
Lacking both formal education and worldly experience, he subconsciously felt that he might have made a mistake.
He went to the edge of the cell and rebuked Li Yuan:
"Hey! Pretty boy, can you come up with $10?"
Li Yuan rested his hands on the railing and said in a relaxed tone:
"That's right, $10 is no problem."
He didn't look at Dede, but instead turned his gaze to Vadim.
Li Yuan said with a smile:
"I've got my eye on one of those girls inside. How about you sell me one?"
Vadim sniffed and stared at Li Yuan with great interest, saying:
"Can."
As he spoke, he extended his hand toward Li Yuan:
"Then, you'll be one of our valued customers from now on."
Vadim, looking at Li Yuan locked in the cell, was completely oblivious to what was amiss.
No one could see anything special about this Asian man.
Li Yuan extended his hand and shook hands with him, smiling as he said:
"Could I have their passports? After all, I live in America."
"Of course, your friend will bring the ransom in a bit, and I'll go to the back to get my passport."
Vadim said happily:
Which one have you taken a fancy to?
I've got my eye on you.
Li Yuan gripped Vadim's hand tightly, a cold and cruel smile slowly spreading across his face.
