Fake heiress Real heroine

Chapter 105 Chapter 105 96 This was Bennett's first tseeing Quinlyn cry, and it shocked him. He quickly stepped forward and gently patted her back, saying, “Alright, alright. Donny wasn't yelling at you. He just got really emotional Don't be scared." Quinlyn shook her head. Her face was streaming with tears, but she showed little emotion. She simply looked quietly at Donny on the ground, clutching the document tightly.

Everyone felt heavy-hearted and their emotions toward Quinlyn were mixed. They understood that at just five years old, she couldn't do much, but her calm recounting of the entire story seemed disturbingly indifferent and cold-hearted.

Bennett suggested that Donny take a break, but he refused. With red, tear-filled eyes, Donny said. "I'll catch those bastards myself!" He was determined to avenge his sister.

Bennett sighed and reminded him to be polite to Quinlyn. After that, he prompted everyone to sit back down and continue the discussion.

"According to Quinlyn's testimony and the discreet inquiries from other villagers, the victim was secretly sold into the village. The trade was very covert, unknown to most villagers.

"Here's a question, though. If the victim didn't lose her memory, why didn't she speak out and ask for help?" Bennett said.

Right after Bennett spoke, another team member added. These victims must have been threatened" Bennett nodded in agreement. "Okay, let's start by checking family connections. We need to see if there was anything unusual around the tthe victim disappeared. Donny, can we include your parents in the investigation?" Donny spoke bitterly, "My parents have been looking for my sister for years-they're exhausted. If they find out she endured such cruel treatment, they might break down.” He thought it almost felt easier for them to believe Nancy just died in an accident. It was a less painful way to grieve, and that was how most families preferred to choose.

Bennett sighed, knowing the investigation would be tough, but he was ready to tackle it step by step. He turned to Quinlyn, his tone softening. “I feel bad about dragging you around right after your birthday. Letgive you a ride home." Honestly, he felt a bit uneasy. Quinlyn was precious to many people these days, and if word got out that she cried at the station, he might end up on who-could-see-Quinlyn blacklists.

Just as he was thinking about buying scandy to cheer her up, he felt a tug on the corner of his coat.

"Bennett, there's another possibility," Quinlyn said, tilting her little face up at him. "Maybe the victims were threatened. themselves" "Themselves?" Bennett paused, trying to follow her logic before frowning. "You mean the criminals had something over them? I doubt it. We've checked their backgrounds at the beginning. All the victims had clean records, and most were young people just starting to look for jobs." People like those victims, even if they had disagreements, typically just ended up arguing in dorms-not to the point of putting someone's life in danger.

Quinlyn simply said. “Then let's start by look for jobs.” The people organizing the office didn't understand her at first and thought she was just being unreasonable. Quinlyn walked over to the whiteboard covered in photos, her eyes locked on those smiling faces. "They are all beautiful but struggling.

"The files show they either cfrom low-incfamilies or had applied for scholarships. Even if sof their families 1/3 Chapter 105 weren't poor, they worked part-ton weekends to boy what they liked" The police gradually put down what they were doing and quickly returned to open the Mer, herking them or by one to their surprise, they found that Quinlyn was right after all.

"Bennett, she's right. The family backgrounds of these victims seem random, which is why we's we look closely at their lives, it's clear they all needed money or had a strong desire for one of the fund Bot wors d Bennett paused to look at the photos. "This only suggests they might have been lured by high-paying on Bosto already investigated all the companies they interviewed with? This case, which had been ongoing for ten years, had been examined from numerous angles. If any other ope they wouldn't still be stuck in this situation.

Seeing them stray further off-topic, Quinlyn reminded them, "Don't you know that beautiful women are price? "What? Bennett was stunned, glancing at her in confusion.

Quinlyn continued, "There's a village at the borderlands that's just filled with women. Criminals often go there daiming that the prettier the woman, the higher the price.

"Sof the more attractive women would try to escape to the city, where they can reportedly make more money with their bodies." Quinlyn had once been kidnapped and tied up in a car when those criminals tried to take her away. She resisted and they took her there directly. They threatened her by explaining how women survived there and said they would leave her behind if she didn't comply.

"I've heard about that village. But didn't it burn down?" Bennett's mouth felt dry, unable to comprehend such a nightmare In big cities, even nightclubs were monitored to prevent chaos. However, the calm in Quinlyn's voice made it seem like she had firsthand experience.

In fact, Quinlyn had seen it all, and she was the one who started the fire. That massive blaze nearly killed her, but it drew attention, which led to further investigations and rescues The officers knew the borderlands had many gray areas, but they didn't expect Quinlyn to have witnessed so much. At that moment, they began to understand why she could talk about Nancy so calmly. No one could develop a normal personalin in that kind of environment.

1 "Bennett, I'm not sure what's available in the city for selling one's body, but you should look into it Quinlyn suggested.

"Alright," Bennett agreed instantly. He then instructed the others to om continue visiting the families while he stayed back to follow up on the lead Quinlyn mentioned. Donny stayed back to help with the investigation

"With the rise of the internet, just leaving a code on personal social media or sites like Craigslist allows for private trading These shady deals are the quickest way to make money using one's body." Donny explained, well-informed because he had been tracking this case continuously. After a pause, he continued. "But the thing that harms young women the most is definitely online loans. The younger and prettier they are, the higher the loan amount. This aligns perfectly with Quinlyn's theory." The loans here were quite unusual; it was called "Naked Loans", where one had to pose naked with their ID.

Despite this lead. Bennett's brow furrowed deeper. "These loan platforms use fake links and the 'iÞ all overseas. It's addresses are all impossible to trace. If it were easy, the situation wouldn't have been so rampant. Donny nodded, looking uneasy. "With so many sites like that, it's really tough to track down the victims' information." "I want to give it a try. Quinlyn said. She raised her hand while sitting neatly in her chair, looking like a student eager to 2/3 Chapter 105 participate Donny was about to tell her not to bother-what good a kid could do when even the tech team struggled with this issue? But then Bennett suddenly slapped his forehead. "Oh right, I just heard you led a team to win an international cyber competition. You're perfect for this" Donny's eyes widened.
