"Give me back my son, give me my son's life, you murderer!"

As I got closer, I heard a woman crying loudly.

But because there were too many people gathered there, it was hard to tell where the people were crying.

"What's going on over there?"

The place occupied by Han Ying and the others was now crowded with people. As a last resort, she and Lu Yuan walked back and placed the two backpacks against the wall before asking Qin Qinghai and the others.

"Xiao Han, you still remember that the two father and son couples who live across from us are not the ones who live opposite us, right?"

When Wu Tingfang saw Han Ying and the others coming back, her strong desire for gossip drove her to whisper to Han Ying and Lu Yuan what she had just learned.

"I remember there were three people, a young couple and an aunt."

The aunt had previously reminded Han Ying not to sleep too much when they went to bed at night, to be careful of someone stealing things.

What she meant at that time was the Li Baohui family next door to the aunt, but Li Baohui took her daughter away after divorcing her husband.

"It turns out that the two fathers and sons who just moved across from us are human traffickers! They sold a child to the couple who lived across from us before."

"I was afraid that the child would be found by the original parents, so I changed the place and moved it to the innermost place."

After the end of the world, no one will dare to have children.

Firstly, there is not much food for everyone. Secondly, the environment is poor and children are afraid that they will not be able to feed them. Thirdly, it is too dangerous to give birth to a child with a lack of medical treatment.

But just because you don’t want to have a child doesn’t mean that your family doesn’t want a child to pass on.

Some people want to have a child, while others want to sell their children if they can't support them.

So a new industry chain emerged, that is, reselling children.

"Selling children?"

Yesterday, the older kid across from me said that he would kill the dog after riding it.

When she was slapped by her father, Han Ying remembered that her father said that before selling you.

Then the child became honest instantly.

At first, everyone thought that those words were from his father to scare the child, but they didn't expect that he was actually reselling the child.

"Yes, I heard that the business is pretty good. Some people want to sell and some want to buy. The brothers act as middlemen to make some of the difference."

Wu Tingfang actually heard from onlookers that the brothers sometimes stole children to sell.

But she didn't know whether such words were true or false, so she really didn't dare to say nonsense.

"Then what? How could it happen like this?"

Some people are buying, some are selling, and the place has been moved. Shouldn't we just live in peace and pretend that no one knows about it?

How could it happen again?

"Then the child who was sold to that couple died just now."

"The family that sold the child regretted it. They went from family to family looking for food and wanted to exchange it for their own child. When they found it, they found out that the child was dead, so both families found a middleman."

Seeing that her daughter-in-law couldn't get to the point, He Xiu jumped in and told Han Ying the main conflict.

Knowing the reason, Han Ying and Lu Yuan fell silent.

They are just bystanders in this kind of thing, and they cannot understand the state of mind of the family who sold the child when they sold the child, when they regretted it, and when they learned that the child was dead.

I don’t know how the family feels when they buy a child.

There are also the two brothers who acted as middlemen to resell children and the state of mind when they told their own children that they wanted to sell him.

In short, anyone who sells children deserves to die regardless of whether it is before or after the apocalypse.

Officials catch this kind of thing and deal with it together, but it still happens repeatedly.

Soon after hearing the news, the soldiers came and took away the three families.

The soldiers did not care how the family who sold the child cried bitterly for her dead child or how they asked the middleman and the person who bought the child to return the child to her.

She sold the child first, who is she crying for now?

For this group of people, it's okay to cooperate. If they don't cooperate, they will be violently executed!

There were more than a dozen people from the three families, all of whom were tied up by the soldiers with ropes at their wrists and taken away directly.

"This mother is so unconscionable that she can sell the meat that falls out of her stomach!"

"You can stand and talk without pain in your back. If the whole family has nothing to eat, won't this child also starve to death?"

"Hey, how did that child die?"

"Don't tell me that I took a second look just now. That child is really skinny and skinny. I think he probably died of starvation."

"You're not going to starve to death, right? If you have food to buy your children, will you not give them food when you buy them back?"

"If you don't starve to death, you will die of illness..."

.....

Han Ying and the others sat against the wall, watching the onlookers unwilling to disperse for a long time, still discussing what had just happened.

But after all guesswork, no one knew how the child died.

There were too many people around just now, so Han Ying didn't see what the child's body looked like.

It's so normal for a lot of people to die in the apocalypse.

That is to say, there is more official intervention in this life, and everyone's life is much better.

In the previous life, no one would talk about things like this.

Because if you step on someone dead, no one will make a fuss.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Han Ying and the others soon returned to their previous appearance.

But the two father and son pairs opposite were missing, along with their luggage.

None of them talked about what happened to the child just now.

On the contrary, it was Lei Minghu who started to ask Han Ying and Lu Yuan about the situation outside.

"The meteorite rain should have stopped. We have been out for so long and haven't found any falling meteorites. I think we can go back tomorrow."

"Many of the buildings hit by meteorites were completely destroyed. If too many were hit by meteorites, they would become dangerous buildings and no one could live in them."

Han Ying and Lu Yuan did not return to Hongmei Village to check, so they did not know what the situation was like there.

But judging from the situation around here, Hongmei Village probably isn't that good either.

"What if the house over there in Hongmei Village...what should we do?"

Everyone realized the seriousness of the matter, especially since they had piled firewood in several rooms over there.

As long as a meteorite hits it, all the firewood in the room will be ignited.

Then the whole house will be reduced to nothing.

"Let's take it one step at a time. If it's really untenable, we can only follow the official lead."

In fact, Lu Yuan has another house that is intact, but it is not within the scope of the Penglai base.

Moreover, there was also a meteorite attack there, and he couldn't guarantee what the situation would be.

"That's all it can do, but if the temperature drops in a short time..."

Wu Tingfang knew that she didn't need to worry about the housing issue, Han Ying, the others, and Lei Minghu would take care of it.

But she worries about cooling.

If all the firewood collected before was burned, how would they survive the next extreme cold?

"We'll see about the specific situation when we go back tomorrow. There's no point in worrying here, right?"

Han Ying patted Wu Tingfang's arm and told her not to worry.
