Chapter 877 - Whose Child Is This? (1/2)
Nicolae could immediately find the origin of the sound with his sharp hearing. He walked silently to one of the black-painted boats parked by the river. He couldn't see anyone on the deck. He heard the voice of a woman grumbling in Polish, and a man responded, coming from inside the cabin.
Nicolae understood only a little, and he tried to guess what really happened and who they were. Did these two people hit their child because they considered her naughty?
No matter what, he couldn't let a child be beaten by an a.d.u.l.t like that. He sneaked into the boat and paid attention to the situation inside.
As soon as his eyes caught the sight in the cabin, Nicolae's c.h.e.s.t was filled with anger. He saw a woman in her 30-s with a cruel face was tying a girl about five years old with a rope. The little girl was struggling, but she couldn't scream. Her mouth was plastered with duct tape.
A hairy man was sitting in the corner of the cabin smoking pipe. He grunted about the payment that didn't come.
At that moment, Nicolae realized that the child was a kidnapping victim. The two criminals on this boat were waiting for further instructions from the person who ordered them to kidnap the little girl before they got paid.
He felt there was no need to keep hiding and immediately entered through the door with long strides. ”Hey ... let the child go!”
His voice was blaring with anger, shocking everyone in the cabin. The man smoking pipe immediately took the pistol on the table beside his chair, but Nicolae was faster.
With one kick, the criminal had fallen down on the floor, and his gun had flown out the window. A groan of pain was immediately heard from the man's mouth. His friend was startled and had not been able to do anything when Nicolae grabbed her neck, and with a pair of fiery eyes, he asked harshly.
”Who are you, and why did you kidnap this child?!!”
The woman was shocked to the core. She reached out to get the knife she had used to cut the duct tape to cover the girl's mouth from the chair, but Nicolae was so much faster and already twisted her arms behind her back. Her scream of pain was immediately heard from the boat.
”Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah .... it hurts!!!” The woman screamed in Polish. she tried to struggle, but Nicolae was very strong, and he gripped her arms mercilessly.
”Answer my question!”
The woman tried to claw at Nicolae's other hand, which grabbed her neck and screamed her lungs out. Nicolae, who was about to tie the woman up and forced her friend to give him information, immediately stopped his actions when he saw the little girl suddenly tumbled from the chair.
”Hey ...” He hurriedly threw the woman into a corner and quickly caught the little girl's body before she hit the floor.
Nicolae immediately checked the girl's condition and took a deep breath. There was a hand mark on her cheek, and her clothes looked dirty. Her hands were tied, and her mouth was plastered by duct tape to prevent her from making a sound.
From any angle, it was obvious that this child was treated very badly by her captors. Instantly Nicolae felt sick seeing the little girl's condition. He couldn't help but remember his unborn child. It never had the chance to see the world because it died with Marie six years ago.
”You poor thing...” murmured Nicolae. He immediately took the knife that the criminal wanted to use to fight him, untied the little girl, and carefully removed the duct tape from her mouth.
When the duct tape stuck to the skin, it would be hard to remove the powerful glue without hurting the skin, especially if it was a small child. That was why he had to do it very carefully.
After the little girl was free from the rope and tape, Nicolae immediately carried her. He took the time to take out his cellphone and photographed the faces of the two criminals.
”I will look for you. Wait for your punishment,” he said in broken Polish. His expression looked very frightening when the two people raised their faces to look at him.
