Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 2388: Chapter 2388: Is the County Magistrate Here to Save Us?

In this cell, there are five young women imprisoned, all of whom Shu Yu has seen before, but she can’t quite remember their appearances anymore.

Only Kang Shuxian was someone she had met once before while on the road.

Tangled in the black market conflict twice, all five young women are deeply distraught, huddled in the corner without a sound, resembling the numb expressions they had when trapped in the Changjin Prefecture’s black market earlier.

Originally, they had escaped with their lives, never expecting to be dragged back into the mire without a clue.

Shu Yu sighed inwardly, raised her eyes to discern for quite a while before picking out the person seemingly unconscious against the corner of the wall, “Kang Shuxian?”

The latter remained motionless, uncertain if she hadn’t heard or didn’t want to hear.

The other young women also remained still, as though external sounds weren’t beneficial to them.

Shu Yu could only call again, and Kang Shuxian finally slowly turned her head.

Her eyes were very red and swollen, squinting to make out who the person at the door was.

In the next moment, she hurriedly stood up, but the haste caused her to fall back down heavily.

Fortunately, the young woman beside her supported her.

Kang Shuxian, disregarding everything, tearfully ran to the door, gripping the door frame tightly as she sobbed, “County magistrate, county magistrate, you’ve come. We are innocent, we really didn’t know anything, didn’t do anything, sob… county magistrate…”

Her words were filled with despair, this girl was quite young, the youngest among all of them; she had just come of age last year and was only sixteen this year.

“Don’t worry, I know you’re innocent.”

Upon hearing these words, Kang Shuxian’s lips tugged upward, laughing and crying simultaneously.

To her, Shu Yu was their lifeline; she had saved them last time, and now, she had come to save them again.

Other young women hearing Kang Shuxian’s voice seemed incredulous, turning their heads after a while.

Upon confirming it was indeed Shu Yu, they stumbled or were supported to the door, “County magistrate.”

“County magistrate, we were really deceived by He Fang. We didn’t know she was involved in the black market.”

“We’ve already shared all that we know, without any concealment. We can swear to it.”

This time’s interrogation was evidently stricter than the last time in the Changjin Prefecture.

The young women had been detained in the cell ever since the incident, remaining there for a full two months.

Their faces had grown thin and hollow, devoid of any vitality.

Shu Yu sighed, “I know you weren’t involved, don’t worry, the interrogation is over, I’m here to take you out.”

Upon hearing these words, the previously anxious young women suddenly went quiet in unison.

They stared blankly at Shu Yu, with Kang Shuxian being the first to react, asking amidst laughing and crying, “Can we, can we really leave?”

“Yes.”

Shu Yu gestured to the officers beside her, who saw that the young women’s emotions had stabilized, then took the key to open the cell door, “Come out now.”

Kang Shuxian and the others, feeling in a daze and somewhat unreal, stepped out of the cell, their steps unsteady.

Only when standing outside, face to face with Shu Yu without any barriers, did they pleasantly exchange glances.

“Out, we can really come out.”

Shu Yu saw their disheveled condition, “Let’s go, we’ll talk after we’re out.”

Shu Yu turned to leave when suddenly, a familiar voice came from her ear again, “County magistrate, county magistrate, I’m innocent too, please take me out.”
