Seeing that her parents were so stubborn, Fu Hui stood there in a daze as if she had lost her soul. Even though she was standing under the sun, she was shrouded in despair as if she couldn’t see the future. It was gray, and she had lost the smile that she should have at her age.
Cults had existed since ancient times. God’s Church was not the first cult and would not be the last. However, they would never allow it to develop and harm the peace of society.
Ye Jian looked at Li E’s back view as she left. She clenched her fists slowly. Just you wait, Li E. Your days will not be long!
The 30-odd families in the small mountain village lived on the mountain and were not gathered together. Besides the six families that were gathered near Chen Jiafu, the rest were all unaffiliated families.
“How many siblings does Chen Jiafu have? Who are the closest ones? Who are the ones that appear in his family frequently?” After understanding the exact number of people in the village, including men, women, and young adults, Ye Jian asked about Chen Jiafu in detail.
The information provided by the Guilin Police wasn’t detailed enough for Ye Jian and the Snow Region Brigade. There were different levels of criminals too. They had to be clear about who they wanted to catch.
Finally, there was someone beside her who could talk to her. Fu Hui’s words became clearer and clearer. “There are two brothers and two sisters who married into other provinces. Chen Jiafu is ranked third. He is closest to his two brothers. If anything happens, they will be the ones to handle it.”
“The second is Li E. The next is the neighbors of the six families that live near his house. The village leader of our village is also surnamed Chen. They are brothers with him. The village leader gets the benefits first.”
The two of them chatted as they walked. Ye Jian maintained her vigilance. Once someone approached her, she would immediately stop the conversation. After reminding her twice, she was surprised.
She didn’t feel that the villagers were following her. However, Ye Jian noticed it when she was at least five meters away.
“You’re amazing. How did you know that someone was following you?” Fu Hui, who was relieved, blinked and looked at Ye Jian with sparkling eyes. “You know even when they’re so far away.”
Ye Jian smiled. “We soldiers train. If someone is following us, we will know immediately. They are not professional stalkers. We will be able to find them from afar.”
Fu Hui exclaimed in admiration, “Your training must be tough. You must be the best police officer in the police station.” If not, they wouldn’t have let her enter the village alone.
Thinking of this, Fu Hui felt more at ease.
She could already see the hundred-year-old maple tree in the village. It was autumn, and the maple tree had turned yellow. The simple and peaceful scenery made Ye Jian stop in her tracks.
Such beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, it would be hard for the villagers to see it again.
“You will only gain if you put in the effort. Just like how you are going through hardships now. In the future, you will be able to face any hardships calmly.” There was only one main road in the village. If she followed it, she would be able to walk through the entire mountain village. Ye Jian, who was comforting others, didn’t walk blindly. She had a purpose. Every time she finished walking, Ye Jian would draw the terrain in her mind.
When they reached a stone tablet, Fu Hui said in a soft voice, “We can’t go further. There’s a path into the mountain ahead. We can’t go out of our village easily, and the people outside can’t enter the village easily either. We need to get the approval of the Chen family before we can do anything.”
