“Right!” Fanny picked up, a little excited, “If we can then the police and then let them send us back, we won’t have to look for people everywhere so much.”
I guess we all thought this was a good idea, and we were all happy for a while.
Next several people began to discuss what to do next, what should be done to get the police to take the initiative to find us.
This is a mountain village, I do not know if there is no police station around here or something.
Cherry believes in Buddhism, so then hurtful things she is not involved, all she will hide far away.
It was Jenny and Jannings who said, “Let’s do this kind of thing!”
So, in the evening, Jenny and Jannings ran to a yard and robbed the person’s yard on the pretext of borrowing something.
The two came back with their hands full of fruit, thinking that the other side should have called the police.
But found that they are completely overthinking, others look at them as outsiders, and do not understand the language thought they are very need those things, although angry, but also can understand.
So, others did not call the police, get such a result Jenny and Jannings some speechless, and finally still send things back to the people.
But not a moment later, the family sent again, so the next few days is the same, the two of them change the way to offend the village people, trying to force them to call the police.
As a result, others not only did not call the police, but also sent some food, all the usual farmers’ own homes.
People born in the mountains, most of them live by the sky, they know from the beginning of their lives, their whole life is farming and working, for the world outside the mountains, is ignorant.
Therefore, in their view, the reason why Jenny and Jannings will go to steal from other people’s homes, because of hunger and poverty, the original idea is to make them sympathetic, but never thought of defending their own food.
After figuring this out, we also decided not to continue, even so, we a few girls in this mountain news also more or less spread out.
The next few days, the villagers out of sympathy, almost always people come to send food.
Through simple words and guesses, we knew that the middle-aged man was called Long Taibao and the daughter was called Long Yue.
Jenny had previously learned some small languages, all around Southeast Asia, although not specific, but always the language is similar.
So gradually down the line, she can barely communicate with the Lang family father and daughter.
Finally understand why we take other people’s things Lang Taibao some helplessly said, “actually you do not need this, I can help you go to find someone to borrow.”
Jenny held her forehead, she also knew it was stupid to rob others, but it was human nature to do something ridiculous when people were in a hurry.
The company said it would wait until tomorrow morning to help us borrow a cell phone to make a call.
The custom here is that you can’t just go to someone’s house at night, there are taboos.
Although we did not know the reason, we did as we were told, after all, to respect.
When we thought we could go home soon, the girls were a little excited to play with Longyue for the rest of the night.
Jenny knew their language and acted as a translator all the time, promising Longyue in broken language that when we got home, we would definitely come back here to see her and bring her nice dolls of good food.
That night, talking until dawn, early in the morning Lang Taibao went to the village to borrow a cell phone.
About noon he returned, the phone did not borrow, he was a little frustrated, but spoke, “But the village seems to have come to the police, you do not want to go over to see.”
Everyone was happy to hear that, but Jannings was alert and said, “How come the police are here all of a sudden?”
Long Tai Bao froze for a moment and said, “It said that someone from above came to look for someone, I’m not sure yet, why don’t you go over and take a look.”
Looking for someone?
A few of us looked at each other, a time some confusion, it is reasonable to say that those people should not go so far to come here to find people!
Not to mention that several of us have walked for several days, over an unknown number of mountains, are so far away, they go to great lengths to find, not afraid of alarming people?
“What’s wrong?” See the four of us do not look too good, Long Taibao some suspicion to ask.
Not wanting to cause any unnecessary trouble for Long Tai Bao, we answered tacitly, “Nothing, nothing!”
Jannings is the most vigilant people, she will not easily believe in others, after a pause, she still spoke, “No matter what, we still have to be careful, really can not, we can continue to go forward, to the city will always meet fellow countrymen, this is the border, we can go to the embassy to find someone for help.”
A time when everyone nodded, this is probably the only way we can think of.
So decided, and after saying goodbye to Long Tai Bao and Long Yue, we hurriedly prepared to leave.
But before we could go out, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside.
“What to do?” Fanny was a little panicked and tugged me by the scruff of my neck.
“Let’s see!” I spoke, and Jannings and I looked at each other before heading towards the door.
The place of Long Tai Bao’s house is very narrow, and it is basically impossible to hide people.
Besides, if we hid here, if those who came really had ulterior motives and knew that the father and daughter had taken us in, they would definitely hurt them.
So, we all walked out, and in the courtyard stood five large, dark-skinned men, wearing black police uniforms with badges attached to their chests.
“Zuy police!” Jannings frowned and walked out first, looking at the man who came.
The man took one look at a few of us and froze, opening his mouth and speaking a bunch of words to Rangtaibao, because of the language barrier, we basically couldn’t understand what he was saying.
Not a moment later, the leader of the man looked at us, said a word, see we did not answer, just some confused look at him.
A time to react to our inability to speak the language, so turned to look behind him to bring the yellow-skinned man, said something.
The yellow-skinned man looked at us and said, “You’re all Chinese smugglers?”
Jannings bristled, “Dude, talk nicely, we’re not smugglers, we’re fleeing for our lives.”
The man frowned slightly, looked to the police officer also said a bunch, the police officer looked at us, a slight pause and the yellow-skinned man said something.
One or two also barely understand, the original is someone looking for Zuy police to search the border, said this side of the people missing.
The exchange didn’t sound like bad guys, but rather like family members of several of us looking for each other.
Jannings looked at a few of us and spoke up, “Which one of you has a family member with that much power to contact the Zuy police?”
Several people froze, Jenny was a little uncertain and said, “I don’t really know about that, my dad works for the government at the border, but she shouldn’t be worthy of me being brought here, and it’s unlikely that she would know that I would be in Zuy!”
