Chapter 91
It's utterly soul-crushing!
Her eyes were crimson, her face contorted like a demon from hell, terrifying the ancient people watching the live stream to the point of turning pale.
It seemed as if, at any moment, the woman could crawl out of the screen and snatch them away too.
The ancient people shrank their necks, "How frightening! Not being able to bear a son is truly wicked, but can it be true that the future world doesn't care whether you have sons or daughters? I just can't believe it!"
"If family assets are passed only to daughters and not sons, wouldn't that ruin everything? Isn't that like toiling your whole life only to hand it over to the man's entire family? What a preposterous rule!"
"Are we women destined to be the oppressed party? Even in the future world, do we still face the risk of being trafficked?"
"I just saw seven or eight girls being rescued, and that's just in this mountain village. It's terrifying!"
The woman could only glare helplessly at Gu Sang as she was pushed into the car.
Soon, her Elder Brother and Younger Brother were also pushed into the car. As they passed by, their looks at Gu Sang were more hateful than those reserved for their father's murderer.
Ah!
How satisfying!
This is exactly the kind of look Gu Sang wanted, very satisfying indeed!
Gu Sang revealed a peaceful smile and guided the ancient people: "Why is passing assets to daughters called giving them to the man's family? Many wealthy families in our future world with only daughters learn to be clever now to prevent their lineage from ending. They either let the son-in-law take the family name or have the descendants follow the female line!"
"Moreover, girls can ensure a hundred percent genetic inheritance. Who made the rule that family assets can only be passed to males? How are women in our future world inferior to men?!"
Such outrageous words left the old city's commoners dumbstruck.
They made the new city's commoners shout "treasonous!"
But where exactly was the treason? They couldn't utter a single word, only repeatedly shouting that women just can't handle it!
Gu Sang continued, "As for the future world not being safe? Actually, wherever there are people, there will be good people, bad people, jealousy, and evil." Findd new stories at novelhall.com
"This has nothing to do with the country or era, only human nature!"
"But as education becomes widespread in our country, the crime rate has already become very low. This trafficking is already a one-in-a-million accident."
"Although the future world can provide universal education and various welfare assistance to poor families, some people are still not content. They want to be superior to others, so they take the path of breaking the law."
"We can't change the nature of evil people, but we can make future generations more educated and civilized, able to distinguish right from wrong and not make mistakes, becoming more and more peaceful!"
"I believe that one day, more and more people will be rescued!"
Lu Mufei drove Gu Sang to the local city hospital for recuperation.
Everyone in the village was involved in the girl trafficking incident, and as it unraveled, it grew larger. Over these decades, the number of trafficked girls they handled reached a shocking one hundred plus.
When this statistic came out, it instantly shocked everyone in the police force.
It's imaginable that over a hundred families have been destroyed because of these human traffickers.
Upon learning this number, Gu Sang was so angry she wanted to testify in court right then and there!
Facing the female team member's inquiry, Gu Sang's eyes were unwavering as she said word by word: "I am willing to testify in court! To aggravate their crimes!"
This answer surprised the female team member for half a second, then she felt admiration and joy at Gu Sang's willingness to stand out and testify.
The remaining seven rescued women were all unwilling to come forward...
Yet Gu Sang agreed without hesitation, regardless of the impact on herself!
But just then, an urgent refusal came from outside: "No! You can't do this!"
Gu's mother pushed open the hospital room door, hurriedly walked in, and urgently stopped her.
Gu's father and Gu Qing followed behind, entering the room.
Gu's mother glanced at the team member and anxiously advised, "Xiao Sang, you're still a student. Don't make such a big scene."
"Reasonable people know you're testifying for justice, but they can't withstand today's social climate."
"Such a big event has happened, it will surely be reported by the media. Who knows how it will be twisted by then? How will you live your life in the future?"
"Others fear having their scars exposed, you can't actively expose your scars to outsiders!"
Hearing these words, the two female team members in the hospital room dimmed their eyes.
Yes.
This trafficking incident is so huge, the media will soon come rushing in.
No one wants to expose their scars in court, in front of so many media outlets, allowing friends around them to point and whisper—it's only human nature...
The female team member opened her mouth but ultimately didn't say much more. Both were about to give up.
However, Gu Sang's next words made them rise in respectful awe.
Gu Sang: "I'm not seeking the limelight. I'm simply standing firm in my convictions. If everyone prioritizes self-preservation, refusing to identify criminals to avoid media sensationalism, then evildoers will only become more reckless!"
"That village has no surveillance cameras, no internet, no evidence—only the wounds suffered by the witnesses and their testimonies!"
