Chapter 997 At this moment, he wanted to hold her in his arms.
"You, you don't come any closer!"
"Mother! Help! This woman is trying to kill me!"
Seeing that Chu Xin was actually about to make a move, the women who had been plotting something finally couldn't help but cry out.
"Please, spare us, we'll never do it again."
“We were just following orders. Hu Manli told us to do this. You killed my husband. My family will have a hard time surviving without the breadwinner!”
Chu Xin stopped what she was doing, listened to them reveal their embarrassing secrets one by one, and then turned her gaze to Zhang Ye, who looked embarrassed. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is this the pitiful person you were talking about?"
Zhang Ye's face turned pale and then red. "I really didn't know that there were people with ulterior motives mixed in with this."
He had mistakenly believed that being rescued and freed from his misery was the dream of all the abducted women who were suffering. It turns out that some people are truly willing to live in the mire.
"So you know what to do now, right?" Chu Xin asked him.
Zhang Ye nodded solemnly.
With that, there was nothing more for her to do, so Chu Xin decided to stop while she was ahead and turned to leave.
However, when her gaze met that of the timid and hesitant women, she couldn't help but pause. She looked around and saw that all the women in the room, except for those few troublemakers, had that pitiful look that made people want to look at her.
"Sigh!" After a moment of silence, she sighed, then strode to the front of the conference room, turned around, and without looking at anyone, said firmly:
“I sympathize with you and understand you. I know why you are unwilling to cooperate with the investigation, but please understand one thing first: in the eyes of the People’s Police, your primary identity is that of a victim. Before being distinguished as a perpetrator, no one is good or bad. That’s why they are here to try to find the best way out for you.”
However, this solution absolutely cannot include allowing you to continue harboring criminals and living with them, because if that were to happen, there would be a continuous stream of victims.
Look at the village you live in, or even the neighboring villages; these are the consequences we can already see.
How terrifying it must have been to live in a village where everyone was an enemy, there was no escape, resistance meant death, and no one would listen to your cries for help. Are you going to watch new victims join you in your suffering, and witness her being beaten, raped, imprisoned, subdued, and forced to silently give birth and live the same life as you were?
Is this the kind of life you really wanted to live as accomplices in crimes?
I know that people instinctively bow to abusers, and you already have children and are firmly trapped, so I didn't want to get involved in your matter at first, even if someone might need to draw some so-called strength from me to fight back.
But, folks, ask yourselves honestly, is what you really need courage from a complete stranger?
No, no! I dared to rebel, I dared to kill, for myself, because I wanted to live!
And what about you? Why are you rebelling, why are you breaking free from the filthy shackles that imprison your hearts? It's for yourselves, for fighting for yourselves. What's there to be afraid of?
So everyone, what you need is not me, but the determination to stand up. Please trust our police officers and bravely stand up to identify all the bad guys who have hurt you!
Let's give ourselves a meaningful and confident start to our new life, okay?!
Chu Xin's words were so clear and loud, each word striking the hearts of everyone present. Many women couldn't help but cover their faces and weep, while Zhang Ye was somewhat astonished.
This woman always manages to surprise people.
Zhou Yichen's eyes remained calm and deep, but only he knew how surging the love hidden within them was. Looking at Chu Xin, who spoke eloquently and directly to the heart of the matter, he wanted to hold her in his arms at this moment.
