Chapter XVIII Emergencies

Due to the "decisive" action of the Indonesian government, the situation gradually tends to calm down, and the US government and the British government followed by the ambiguous attitude, only verbally saying that they need to pay attention to the events in Indonesia, but do not label the incident as a humanitarian disaster. At this moment, an unexpected event happens, but the whole thing is imported in another direction.

On the evening of May 14, when the situation in Indonesia was ostensibly beginning to stabilize, the media teams from various countries were learning less and less about the violence, as evidenced by the latest situation report seen by Zhang Lexing, when a sudden phone call broke the silence of the night.

"Boss, no, we have a staff member missing in Indonesia!" Zhang Lexing just picked up the phone, and an anxious voice of Dai Shihua came from the receiver.

"What!" Zhang Lexing was anxious when he heard this: "Didn't all the company's employees stationed in Indonesia be withdrawn last month, and no one was sent out this time, why did someone disappear inexplicably? ”

"We didn't send it, she went by herself, but we didn't take responsibility for ignoring the company's warning. Dai Shihua explained that perhaps he thought that Zhang Lexing was worried about the impact of the disappearance of the staff on the group.

"Damn this is not the time to discuss who is responsible. Zhang Lexing couldn't help but roar, and then said in a slower tone: "What I want to know now is, who is the missing clerk, how did he go to Indonesia, and is the missing person alive or dead?"

was shouted angrily by others, Dai Shihua's heart couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, but fortunately, Zhang Lexing's words seemed much calmer, and he calmed down a little and began to explain the matter in detail: "Boss, this is the situation......

The missing person is He Wanping, a female employee of the market development department of Shuxiang Newspaper, who is usually responsible for the business in Southeast Asia, in fact, the warning issued by the group, she also received, and was worried about it at first, but then saw that nothing happened, and it happened that Indonesia's cousin was getting married, so she took annual leave, flew from Hong Kong to Indonesia, planning to see her cousin's wedding, in order to reduce the trouble of asking for leave, she did not say that she was going to Indonesia, but took leave in the name of planning to go to the Maldives for vacation.

Ms. Ho's cousin's wedding was scheduled for May 13, and the night before she had called her family in Hong Kong, and she hadn't said much for a long time, and that was the last time Ms. Ho's mother, Zheng Cuiting, heard her voice. The next morning, Zheng Cuiting made a call to Indonesia to find out about the wedding, and asked her daughter when she would return to Hong Kong, but no one answered. By the afternoon of the same day, Zheng Cuiting happened to see the news of the riots in Indonesia on TV, and she fainted on the spot when she looked at the blood-soaked photos on the screen. In the evening, He Wanping's father, eldest brother and others went home one after another, and with the last luck in their hearts, Zheng Cuiting asked them to verify the authenticity of the news of the riots in Indonesia, and when she heard the news that there were indeed anti-China riots in Indonesia, she fainted again.

finally woke up Zheng Cuiting, she sobbed and told He Wanping about the loss of contact, He Wanping's father and eldest brother also panicked, and hurriedly tried to call Indonesia again, but unfortunately the result was still the same. He Wanping's family couldn't help but fall into a huge fear, although they didn't want to think about it, but they would always involuntarily associate those tragic pictures seen in newspapers and TV with He Wanping.

The next morning, Zheng Cuiting, who had barely slept all night, had no choice but to call her daughter's boss, hoping that her daughter's company could help find it. At this time, the scholarly newspaper knew that He Wanping, who had taken annual leave, did not go to the Maldives but to Indonesia, and had disappeared.

Something happened to his employees, Dai Shihua didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly learned about the situation through the relationship, but because the situation in the past two days was too chaotic, he didn't find anyone who knew He Wanping's situation. According to a neighbor of He Wanping's cousin's house, early in the morning of the 13th, a group of thugs rushed into their neighborhood and set fire to many houses, He Wanping's cousin's house happened to be among them, and until the fire was extinguished, he didn't see anyone escape from it. In this case, Dai Shihua had no better way, so he had to report the situation to Zhang Lexing.

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Lexing clicked on the email and opened the attached He Wanping's resume, a young and beautiful sunny girl smiled at him like a flower in the photo. Zhang Lexing couldn't help but think of the Chinese women who were mutilated in the photos and videos in the past two days, He Wanping actually disappeared at this moment, even if she was lucky enough to run out of her cousin's house, it is not difficult to imagine what awaits her. Thinking of this, Zhang Lexing's heart couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness about why Wanping's possible encounter.

At this moment, Chen Zishan walked into the workshop with hot milk as usual. She put down the milk, saw the employee's resume opened on the screen, and asked curiously: "Lexing, who is this person?"

"The clerk of the scholarly newspaper disappeared in Indonesia yesterday!" Zhang Lexing said with a sigh, his voice a little hoarse for some reason.

When Chen Zishan heard the word Indonesia, she suddenly remembered the TV pictures she saw yesterday morning, and couldn't help but cover her mouth in surprise: "What!"

"It's been 48 hours since I lost contact. Zhang Lexing shook his head and sighed: "It is estimated that there is already a lot of bad luck." ”

Maybe the situation I saw yesterday was too tragic, or maybe it was all because of women, Chen Zishan's heart unconsciously became concerned about He Wanping, who had never met: "Lexing, what are you going to do?"

"Well, I'm not going to give up on my employees easily, maybe I'll send someone over there to look for it, but I'm still thinking about how to do it. ”

"Lexing, then you must not take risks on your own, and rest early, and don't forget to drink milk. ”

After Chen Zishan gave some instructions, he left with a complicated expression, Zhang Lexing was about to think about how to deal with this matter, when someone suddenly walked in. Hearing someone coming in, Zhang Lexing looked back and saw that it was Ma Guanghai who came.

"Brother Guanghai, is there something wrong?" Zhang Lexing looked at Ma Guanghai with a strange feeling in his heart.

"Boss, I accidentally heard what you said just now, is there someone in our company who has disappeared in Indonesia?" asked Ma Guanghai with a solemn expression.

"There is a female employee named He Wanping who has not been able to contact her for 48 hours, and it is estimated that the situation is not good. ”

"Boss, are you going to send someone to look for her?"

"Yes, I have this idea, but the situation over there has not really stabilized, and it was too dangerous for ordinary people in the past, but this kind of thing needs to be done by reliable people, so I haven't figured out how to deal with it. ”

"Boss, let me go. ”

"You, in such a dangerous place, how can you do it alone, I don't agree!"

"Boss, some time ago, a friend of mine recommended a group of retired soldiers of the domestic special forces, originally I planned to arrange them to be security guards in China, but it was a bit too big and overused, but now this matter should be used for them. ”

"Is it too dangerous, have you asked them what they mean, and if they are willing to participate in such a high-risk operation?" Although Zhang Lexing only learned about the situation in Indonesia through computers and television, the pictures and words alone already showed the level of danger there, especially for the Chinese.

"I've asked them for their opinions, and they're actually more willing to do some challenging jobs, so that's why I said that it's too big for them to stay in China as security guards. ”

"So you have already made up your mind," Zhang Lexing looked at Ma Guanghai with a resolute face and asked, "Then what do you need my help with?"

"We need a sum of money to purchase the necessary equipment......," Ma Guanghai said, with a hesitant look on his face.

"No problem, you can give me a budget for how much money you need, and I will help you prepare a safe account and store the money in it. In addition, if anything unexpected happens, my family will help you settle it. ”

"Thank you. Ma Guanghai's face showed a grateful expression, in fact, according to his original plan, he planned to use the vacation time to quietly go to Indonesia with his comrades-in-arms who were willing to go with him, and do something for the Chinese who died. However, now that we have financial support, there will definitely be more comrades-in-arms who can afford to go with us at that time, and the preparations can be more sufficient.

At this time, Zhang Lexing remembered the French news agency that had lost contact, and also remembered all kinds of clues in the incident, and wanted to have a reliable person to help him solve his doubts, so he said to Ma Guanghai: "Brother Guanghai, if your ability allows, I still have two things I want you to investigate." ”

"Boss, just say it. ”

"Some time ago, our company commissioned several European and American news agencies to Indonesia to investigate the living conditions of the Chinese, just in time for this riot, one of the French news agencies has been out of contact for three days, and the last news they sent was that they had found something related to the local military and were ready to go to investigate, and then there was no more news. I will give you the information of their members, and I hope that you will investigate their whereabouts if you can. ”

"Yes, but I also need information about their main areas of activity so that I can find out where they are going. ”

"That's fine, I'll have someone get all the relevant materials ready. In addition, I feel that this anti-Chinese riot is not like the official Indonesian claim is the spontaneous behavior of the people, I suspect that there are people behind this instigation and incitement, if you have the conditions, I hope to investigate this matter by the way, I want to know who is the culprit of this riot. ”

"Boss, don't worry, even if you don't say anything about this matter, I will investigate. ”

"Brother Guanghai, I hope that if you find out who is behind this riot, you will not attack him quietly. ”

"Boss, what do you mean?"

"I hope to find conclusive evidence, only by letting the culprits get the public punishment they deserve, so that the souls of those Chinese who died in heaven can be comforted, and no one will dare to attack the Chinese easily in the future. ”

Ma Guanghai nodded and said, "Boss, I understand, I will do my best." ”

……

That night, Ma Guanghai began to make preparations, on the one hand, he contacted the retired special forces again to determine who could participate in the operation, and on the other hand, he learned about the equipment procurement through some channels and connections. By the morning of the 15th, Ma Guanghai had confirmed the list of twelve people for the operation, and also confirmed the preliminary budget for the equipment for this trip, because it was an unconventional procurement channel, the price was much more expensive, but it was still much cheaper than Zhang Lexing expected.

Ma Guanghai is preparing for action here, Zhang Lexing is not idle, he first went to visit He Wanping's family in grief, and told them that He Wanping will definitely be brought back, and then held a grand press conference in the morning of the same day, announcing that in view of the experience of the Indonesian Chinese and the disappearance of an employee of the group, the Indonesian government announced the truth of the incident. Until the killers are handed over, Oriental Industrial Group and its affiliates will withdraw all investments in Indonesia, and call on Chinese businessmen around the world to refuse any trade relations with Indonesia until the Indonesian government has not apologized and compensated for the (anti-Chinese riots).

……

At noon Beijing time, late at night on the 14th Eastern Time, Congressman John Salazar had just fallen asleep when he was awakened by a piercing ringtone.

"Is it Mr. Salazal, please?" came an anxious voice on the phone, and John Salazar sounded familiar, but could not remember who it was.

"I just, what's the matter?" replied John Salazal.

"Your son George Salazar has disappeared in Indonesia......"

John Salazar only felt a buzz in his head, the whole person seemed to be unconscious, and the voice on the phone couldn't be heard at all, and there was only one thought in his mind, "George is missing in Indonesia". What kind of chaotic situation is in Indonesia right now, it may not be clear to ordinary people, but John Salazar is also well aware that so-called disappearances are often accompanied by death, and it is likely to be very tragic.

I don't know how long it took, but when John Salazar came to his senses, there was only a busy beep on the phone, and he dropped the phone and fell into the couch, his mind still messing around. John Salazal's right hand accidentally touched a piece of paper on the square table, and when he picked it up, it turned out to be a note handed to him in the afternoon, which read, "Please delay the ...... of the bill on Indonesia." At that time, he was a little tempted by the promise of very tempting conditions, but now that he saw this note, he only had hatred left in his heart, and he even regretted it a little, maybe if he had passed that bill earlier, George would not have disappeared.

Thinking of this, John Salazar secretly made up his mind that the bill must be passed immediately, and he also planned to personally persuade his friends to support him, and even planned to use his influence to promote the United Nations peacekeeping force to Indonesia. "Maybe George is still alive," John Salazar reassured himself, "maybe these efforts will save his life." ”

John Salazar was far alone in receiving the same phone calls across the United States on this night, and although they were of different identities, they all had the same sadness and the same anger towards Indonesia, and this sadness and anger were centered on them and spread to their circle of relatives and friends.

On the morning of the 15th Eastern time, a group of photos of Americans killed in Indonesia appeared on the front page of the New York Times, which completely caused an uproar in the United States. On the same day, on the Internet, newspapers around the world, a large number of the latest photos of Indonesian atrocities were published, including yesterday, and a wave of condemnation of Indonesian atrocities that swept the world gradually took shape, even more fierce than the 14th, the Indonesian authorities who once thought they had controlled the situation became anxious again, President Suharto put down his body and went around to express the "goodwill" of the Indonesian government , as for whether anyone believes in him now, he can't care about it at all.
