Quick, female general, I traveled through time to save my father

Chapter 266 Human Traffickers Deserve to Die 11

In fact, everyone knows that Li Jinshuai’s wife’s delivery this time was not smooth.

Her due date was a week later, but she slipped at home and the baby was born prematurely. This caught the family off guard and disrupted all their plans.

Li Jinshuai and his wife had originally planned for a natural birth, but unexpectedly, when it came time for delivery, his wife's pelvis wouldn't open and the baby couldn't come out at all.

The doctor urgently decided to switch to a caesarean section, which saved the life of both mother and child. This sudden change left Li Jinshuai's wife deeply wounded, and she has yet to fully recover both physically and mentally.

"She just got off the operating table, and the anesthetic hasn't worn off yet. If we tell her now that the child is lost, wouldn't that be the end of her life?" My mother-in-law couldn't help but wipe away her tears, her voice choked with sobs. "Jin Shuai, you must find a way to get the child back first..."

"Mom, don't worry, I have called the police and will tell everyone as soon as I have any news." Li Jinshuai tried to keep his voice steady, not wanting his mother and mother-in-law beside him to hear his inner fluctuations.

He couldn't leave the hospital for too long as his wife's condition was still unstable and any carelessness could lead to infection or other complications.

If he wasn't with her for a long time, she would definitely become suspicious. Li Jinshuai could only keep checking his phone, refreshing the screen every few seconds, hoping for any useful information from the police.

He, his father, and his father-in-law had just returned from the hospital's monitoring room, all looking glum. Li Jinshuai knew the surveillance footage hadn't provided them with any valuable clues.

"The surveillance footage at the gate didn't show any suspicious individuals holding the child," the father sighed, his tone filled with helplessness. "Those people... were too shrewd. They left no trace at all."

Li Jinshuai lowered his head and clenched his fists involuntarily.

This is the largest maternal and child hospital in the city, with countless people coming in and out every day, especially newborns and their families.

There was a constant stream of people carrying babies in and out, and to prevent the children from catching a cold, most of them wrapped the babies completely in small blankets, including their heads and faces. This undoubtedly provided a perfect disguise for those who took the children away.

The family fell into silence again, and the oppressive feeling in the air was suffocating.

Everyone was grimacing, yet helpless. Li Jinshuai felt as if his heart was being stabbed by thousands of needles, the pain so intense it stifled his breath. He hated himself for falling asleep at that moment? Why hadn't he been able to keep his child safe?

Just when the family was at a loss, Li Jinshuai's cell phone suddenly vibrated.

He immediately picked it up and saw a text message. The content of the message was brief, but it was like a flash of lightning that cut through the haze in Li Jinshuai's heart.

Li Jinshuai's breathing hitched, and then his heartbeat quickened. He knew that no matter what, he had to go.

He had to go and find out the situation in person and not miss any hope of finding the child.

"Dad, Mom, we have a clue about the child!" His voice remained deliberately calm, although the turbulent waves in his heart almost drowned him.

He quickly handed the phone to his father-in-law, who was closest to him. His father-in-law took the phone, his brow furrowed, his eyes fixed on the text message. Everyone else held their breath, waiting.

After reading it, the father-in-law didn't say much, but just passed the phone to Jin Shuai's mother next to him with a heavy face.

The information was quickly passed between several people, but the tension in the air became increasingly thicker.

Everyone who read the message had a heavy expression on their face and a complicated look in their eyes. Finally, the phone was returned to Li Jinshuai, his palms already wet with sweat.

"I'll go with you!" My father-in-law was the first to break the silence, his tone undeniably firm. Although he tried to remain calm, his slightly trembling voice still betrayed his inner anxiety.

"I'm going too!" Li Jinshuai's father followed closely behind, his tone also full of determination.

"Old woman, you and your mother-in-law stay here with Xiaofang. Let's go over and take a look." He turned and said to Jin Shuai's mother and mother-in-law.

Jin Shuai's mother nodded. Although her eyes were filled with worry and anxiety, she knew she couldn't afford to be a hindrance at this moment. "Be careful, everyone. Call me if you need anything." Her voice was choked with sobs, but she still tried to remain calm.

"We must bring the child back safely." My mother-in-law also whispered in agreement with tears in her eyes.

Several people acted quickly, and Li Jinshuai, together with his father-in-law and father, walked quickly out of the hospital.

After getting in the car, Li Jinshuai gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force.

The car sped through the night, the light of the street lamp flashing through the window onto his face, and his expression became particularly solemn. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he turned his head sharply to look at his father sitting in the passenger seat.

"Dad, do we need to tell the police?" Li Jinshuai asked anxiously. This matter involved the child's safety, and the slightest mistake could lead to irreversible consequences.

Old man Li sat in the passenger seat, squinting his eyes slightly, as if thinking.

He was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Let's go over there first. When we get there, it will still be time to call the police if things go wrong." His tone was firm, with the calmness and decisiveness honed by years of life.

"Well, your dad is right. Let's go over and take a look first." The father-in-law in the back seat also echoed, his tone also full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Li Jinshuai nodded. The most important thing now was to get to the scene as quickly as possible to ensure the child's safety. He took a deep breath, stepped on the accelerator a little harder, and the car sped away like an arrow in the night.

When they arrived at the scene, police support had already arrived. Zhao Xiangyang also drove out the car containing the children, and several parents were carrying their children down.

Li Jinshuai saw at a glance that a man was holding a baby wrapped tightly in a small blanket in his arms.

Li Jinshuai's heartbeat quickened, and he rushed over, only to be stopped by a police officer. "Who are you?" the officer asked in a calm and professional tone.

He frantically took out his ID and explained to the police that he was the child's father and how the child was stolen.

Because we had a record of their police report, we verified their identities and let them go and pick up the child.

Old man Li took his grandson from Zhao Xiangyang, and tears immediately welled up in his eyes. He hugged the child tightly, tears falling down his face: "My grandson has suffered a lot for this little thing!" His voice was choked with sobs, full of heartache and self-blame.

Li Jinshuai stood by and couldn't help but shed tears when he saw the child lying safely in his father's arms.

He carefully reached out his hand and gently stroked the child's cheek, his voice choked with sobs: "Child, Daddy is here. It's all because of Daddy's failure to protect you."

Old man Li held the child in his arms, patting the child's back gently. He followed other parents to the ambulance to check the child's condition.
