"It was my miscalculation, and I didn't call the police in advance." Si Chen admitted his mistake without shifting blame, but he was puzzled by the origin of Tong Yao's information.
Given the clues she provided, unless it was from an insider, it wasn't possible to have such clear information. Si Xiaohui had left, and Tong Yao had never left his sight, so it couldn't be possible that she overheard it.
So, how did she know the trafficker's whereabouts?
Suddenly, Si Chen found Tong Yao full of doubts.
Dodging his probing gaze, Tong Yao turned her head away, comforting him. "You can't blame yourself for this. Maybe it's Xiaohui's destiny. Let's go back to the city and wait for news!"
There were people hiding outside the village. If they spooked the enemy, she and Si Chen wouldn't be able to escape.
This matter was too big. The town's police station couldn't handle it, it had already been handed over to the city police. All they had to do was wait for news in the city.
