189: Chapter 189 One Million, Selling His Own Daughter?

Zhao Xiaoqing's voice came through the microphone.

Her voice was trembling uncontrollably, carrying a heartbreaking helplessness.

Eight million viewers stared at the black screen, and the bullet chat suddenly halved.

Su Yun leaned back in his gaming chair, his fingers lightly tapping the desk.

"Don't panic."

"Tell me clearly what happened."

"What happened to your sister?"

Zhao Xiaoqing hid in a narrow wardrobe, her hands covering her mouth tightly, only daring to speak in a tiny whisper.

"My parents have gone crazy..."

"My brother is getting married next month, and the bride's family is demanding three hundred thousand in betrothal gifts—they won't marry without a penny less."

"Our family simply can't come up with that much money."

"They... they sold my sister!"

"They sold her to the Wang family, the richest family in Yunzhou City."

"They sold her for one million!"

As soon as those words were spoken...

The bullet chat in the livestream exploded instantly.

"Holy crap! Selling their own daughter for a million?"

"Is this selling livestock or a human being!"

"Selling a daughter just to scrape together a betrothal gift for the son? What era is this that such trash parents still exist!"

"Call the police immediately! Human trafficking is a serious crime!"

Su Yun watched the frantically scrolling bullet chat, his expression unchanged.

He continued questioning into the microphone.

"The Wang family, the richest in Yunzhou?"

"Wealthy people of that level can find any daughter-in-law they want. Why would they need to spend a million to buy one by force?"

Zhao Xiaoqing began to sob in the wardrobe.

"It's not to marry a living person..."

"The eldest Young Master of the Wang family died on the spot in a street racing accident three days ago."

"They paid a million for my sister to have a Ghost Wedding!"

"My sister fought to the death and refused, so their bodyguards forcibly injected her with a sedative and took her away."

"I tried to stop them, but my parents held me back and locked me in the bedroom."

"Now the Wang family's people are waiting downstairs to take my sister's household registration book to cancel her residency!"

"My parents are bringing people to break down the door right now!"

As soon as the words 'Ghost Wedding' were mentioned...

Eight million viewers felt a chill run straight to their heads.

"A Ghost Wedding with a living person? That's freaking murder!"

"Is the Wang family insane! Just because they're the richest, they can treat human life like grass?"

"These parents are animals too! For three hundred thousand, they're watching their daughter go to her death with their eyes wide open?"

Right at that moment.

A loud, dull thud came through the microphone.

Bang!

Someone was violently kicking the door outside.

Following that, a middle-aged woman's sharp, piercing curse penetrated the wooden door.

"You wretched girl! Get out here!"

"What are you hiding in there for!"

"Your sister is going to the Wang family to be the eldest young madam, she's going there to enjoy a life of leisure!"

"She didn't live a good life while she was alive; being buried with Young Master Wang after death is her good fortune!"

"Hurry up and open the door, bring out the household registration book!"

A middle-aged man's voice followed.

"Why waste words with her!"

"Get the hammer!"

"Boss Wang's people said if we miss the burial hour, that million will have to be returned!"

"Even if we have to smash the door to pieces today, we're finding that registration book!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of the hammer hitting the wooden door was deafening.

The cracking sound of the wood snapping made one's scalp tingle.

Zhao Xiaoqing was trembling all over in fear and hurriedly turned off her phone's flashlight.

The livestream screen turned completely black.

Only the life-threatening sound of the door being smashed could be heard from outside the wardrobe.

The viewers were all frantic.

"Call the police! Call 110!"

"If that door is smashed open, this girl will be beaten to death too!"

"Master, please take action!"

Su Yun ignored the urgings of the bullet chat.

He directly awakened the system in his mind.

"Activate Tianji Divine Calculation."

"Extract Zhao Xiaoxue's fate information and current coordinates."

A virtual light screen that only Su Yun could see immediately popped up.

[Name: Zhao Xiaoxue]

[Age: 20]

[Occupation: Ordinary Girl]

[Recent Fortune: Life hangs by a thread, but will survive a great disaster. Currently trapped in an underground tomb chamber in Qinglong Mountain; vital signs are continuously dropping, facing the dead end of being buried alive. However, she is about to receive help from a benefactor and turn danger into safety.]

[Past: Born into an extreme family that favors boys over girls, she has suffered endless grievances. Recently, because her parents wanted to raise three hundred thousand in betrothal gifts for her brother, she was forcibly sold by her biological parents to the Wang family, the richest in Yunzhou, for a Ghost Wedding at a price of one million yuan...]

[Future: Before the coffin-sealing countdown ends, she will be successfully rescued by the Yunzhou City SWAT guided by Su Yun. Afterward, she will send her biological parents, suspected of human trafficking, to prison, completely severing the ties of her blood-sucking original family, and start a new life with the help of the Tianji Charity Foundation...]

[Sin Value: 0]

[Detailed Crimes: None (A pure victim).]

[Coffin-Sealing Countdown: Fifty minutes]

Su Yun looked at the red countdown line on the panel.

Fifty minutes.

The time was too tight.

He conveniently pulled up the information panel for the head of the Wang family.

[Name: Wang Yi]

[Age: 58]

[Occupation: Richest man in Yunzhou City, Chairman of the Wang Group, leader of an organized crime syndicate]

[Recent Fortune: Omen of great calamity, a certain death trap. His lair at Qinglong Mountain is facing a full-scale armed raid by the Yunzhou City SWAT Detachment.]

[Past: Started out operating illegal coal mines in his early years; once buried seventeen striking miners alive. Relying on extremely bloody and brutal methods, he completed his primitive capital accumulation and established a massive underworld business empire in Yunzhou...]

[Future: Tonight, his lair at Qinglong Mountain will be completely breached by the police, and he along with his underworld armed syndicate will be rounded up. Ultimately, he will be sentenced to death for multiple serious crimes including organized crime, intentional homicide, human trafficking, and illegal possession of firearms, with all assets confiscated...]

[Sin Value: 98]

[Detailed Crimes: Buried seventeen striking miners alive while operating illegal coal mines in his early years. Established an illegal armed security company, long-term maintenance of over three hundred thugs, and illegal possession of a large number of homemade firearms and controlled blades. Recently spent one million to buy the living person Zhao Xiaoxue, forcibly injecting her with a large dose of muscle relaxants, attempting to murder her for a Ghost Wedding for his son who died in a car accident.]

Su Yun curled his lip.

No wonder he dared to conduct a living person Ghost Wedding so brazenly.

It turned out he was a mob boss with blood-stained hands.

At this time, the bullet chat was still frantically spamming for Su Yun to call the police.

Su Yun picked up the microphone, his tone extremely flat.

"Viewers, stop spamming about calling the police."

"Following the conventional process is useless."

"Receiving the call, reporting it, verifying, approving, and then dispatching the local police station..."

"By the time that process is finished, it'll be too late."

"Zhao Xiaoxue is currently locked in an underground tomb chamber on Qinglong Mountain."

"There are only fifty minutes left until the coffin is sealed and the earth is filled."

"Furthermore, this Wang Yi is no ordinary businessman."

"He keeps several hundred armed thugs under his command."

"If ordinary police officers go there, they won't even get through the gates of Qinglong Mountain; it would be purely throwing their lives away."

As soon as these words came out, the viewers in the livestream were all stunned.

"Armed thugs? That arrogant?"

"Then what do we do? Are we just going to watch a living person be buried?"

"Fifty minutes—even flying there wouldn't be fast enough!"

Su Yun didn't answer.

He picked up his phone and opened WeChat.

He found an internal group chat named 'National Police Mutual Aid Group'.

This was a group Lei Dapao had insisted on dragging him into after the Cross-River Bridge case.

The group was filled with the top leaders of Criminal Investigation Detachments from various provinces and cities.

Su Yun found the profile picture of Lu Sen, the Captain of the Yunzhou City Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Detachment.

But he didn't send a message.

Instead, he directly opened the backend management interface of the livestream platform.

He entered the official account ID of the Yunzhou City Public Security Bureau.

He clicked on the mandatory joint livestream invitation.

That's how direct a 'privileged user' could be.
