The kid was overjoyed and tried to stand up, forgetting that his leg was broken. Jeff immediately lifted him onto his back and carried him as they continued forward.
With the kid guiding the way, Jeff decided to gather some information.
He kept his pace slow, knowing the boy's frail body would not be able to handle his full speed, so he moved gently through the forest.
After a while, he finally understood the situation. The kid's name was AJ, and he and his sister had been kidnapped together and brought to this place.
Both of them lived alone with no parents, and his older sister was the one earning money for the two of them.
But one day, while they were on their way home a group of men grabbed them and forced them into a van, bringing them to this place.
Because his sister was pretty, they decided to take her for trafficking and push her into their private auction network, a place where wealthy buyers chose victims for their own purposes.
