Chapter 65: South of the Clouds

The Lucheng Police Station building is filled with a tense atmosphere under the state of emergency, and the police officers are busier than ever.

In the criminal police detachment, the city bureau selected the criminal investigation elites of each sub-bureau to form several special case teams, which were responsible for several major cases, all of which were related to the Ocean Group.

Bank robberies, drug and gun manufacturing, drug trafficking, erotic trafficking, antiquities smuggling, violent crimes, several homicides – the criminal record of the Ocean Syndicate has set a new record in the city's criminal history.

Historically, the illegal business that the gangster criminal organization relied on for a living was contaminated by the Ocean Group one by one, forming an undercurrent of alternating light and dark in this city, and this force really unveiled the veil of terror and made everyone talk about it, and Zhang Shuai is the young organizer and leader of this criminal group, and sometimes, he is also an evil executioner, suspected of several major murders and criminal cases.

Cracking down on the Ocean Group will undoubtedly make the Lucheng police officers shine with glorious brilliance, some people will be swallowed up by darkness, and more people will get the opportunity of a lifetime.

Because Meng Xing has a kinship with Meng Yuanyang, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Ocean Group, in order to avoid suspicion, the organization did not send her to join the task force.

I was going to Yunnan to cover an interview and look for an abandoned child, and Meng Xing went with me on behalf of the police.

The main character of this news is a five-year-old girl named Xiaoxiao, whose parents are both teachers in a middle school. Xiaoxiao has suffered from deep childhood autism since she was a child, and has never said a word, let alone laughed. Her family named her Xiaoxiao in the hope that one day she would be able to laugh innocently like other children.

In order to see a doctor for her, her parents went to major hospitals in China, but they were never cured. Spent all his savings and owed a huge amount of foreign debt. The last time, Xiaoxiao's father took her to a hospital in Shanghai to see a doctor, and after spending the last money, he was a little disheartened when he looked at his daughter with dull eyes and cold eyes.

This young middle school teacher, whose hair had turned gray when he reached his thirties, bought Xiaoxiao a large bag of snacks at the Shanghai train station, changed her into beautiful clothes, and left her alone in the corner of the square, and he got on the train to his hometown in despair.

Xiaoxiao's mother was preparing dinner at home, waiting for her husband and daughter to come home, and she also bought a pet dog to give to Xiaoxiao, but when she saw her tired husband coming back alone, she collapsed in despair at the door of the house.

The husband tried to make his wife forget about the mentally defective child and start a new life, but failed, and the wife was mentally depressed day by day, often waking up at night by nightmares, and following other children on the street. Faced with his wife's strong longing for Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao's father became increasingly haggard with guilt.

Sometimes we choose to give up, thinking that it is just a past relationship. If you lose it, you may have to make up for it in a lifetime.

Xiaoxiao's father began to run to Shanghai countless times to find his daughter, but there was no news.

During this period, Xiaoxiao's mother was admitted to a psychiatric hospital twice, and she took the little girl from someone else's house on the street in her arms and ran wildly.

Xiaoxiao's father asked for help from major websites and media, and posted day and night to seek information about his children. Half a year later, a southern netizen provided a clue that a girl suspected of being Xiaoxiao was found in a small town in Yunnan and was adopted by a family, but the parents insisted that it was a relative's child.

This clue was obtained by Meng Xing, and after I told her about it, she had been paying attention to it and spending a lot of time helping them find their child.

This small city in Yunnan is next to Qingluo, where Su Jing died, and it is also a border city, and the local police want to go to Xiaoxiao's parents, Meng Xing led the team, and I took the initiative to ask to follow the interview.

My aunt told me that it was not safe to stay here during this time, so let's go with Meng Xing. After the matter is done, you two take this opportunity to stay for a few more days, and I will give Meng Xing a leave.

After the accident of the Ocean Group, Meng Xing was depressed, she did not believe that the well-known company founded by her uncle turned out to be a criminal group. She always expected her uncle to be innocent.

What she couldn't bear the most was that the Ocean Group was suspected of drug production and drug trafficking, and her best friend Su Jing died heroically because of drug enforcement. This is an indelible shadow in her heart.

In addition to helping Xiaoxiao's parents find their children on behalf of the police, she wanted to go to Qingluo to see Su Jing by the way.

Over the years, Su Jing's death has gradually been forgotten, and all the pain is like this, which will always fade with the passage of time. But there is only one person who will never forget, and the pain will not be alleviated, and this person is Meng Xing.

In the past few years, except for the traces of suspects, there has been no progress in this case, and it may never be solved, but Meng Xing has never given up hope.

We flew to Kunming and changed buses a few times to get to this small border town. The town is also surrounded by mountains, and the mountains that run along the city are in the same vein as the mountains on the Cheongna side, stretching outside the city.

Under the leadership of the local police, they soon met the family, and the little girl was taken away by her grandfather to relatives. When the parents saw Xiaoxiao's parents coming from afar, with a sad expression on their faces, and heard their story before, they sympathized and told the police the truth. The little girl was found near the train station when they traveled to Shanghai, and they didn't open their mouths to ask, but saw that the child looked well-behaved and cute, so they brought it back privately.

As soon as he heard about the Shanghai Railway Station, Xiaoxiao's father was very excited and said that he must be Xiaoxiao.

When the child came home, the smiling parents saw it, and sure enough, it was smiling, and the husband and wife held the child and cried non-stop. The little girl was delicate, sweet-looking, with dark and shining eyes, like a quiet little princess, standing there watching her mother say nothing, but gently touching her mother's hair with her hand.

The child was found, and everyone was happy. The family who picked up Xiaoxiao opened a farmhouse in the local area, with beautiful scenery, because he and Xiaoxiao also had feelings for half a year, and sincerely kept Xiaoxiao's family to live in the farmhouse for a period of time, saying that it was conducive to Xiaoxiao and her mother's psychological treatment. It's hard to resist the hospitality, and the Xiaoxiao family stays. Meng Xing and I were deeply moved, so we each took out 1,000 yuan to donate to Xiaoxiao's parents, and the police and others present also generously donated money to help the family of three.

Xiaoxiao's father was moved to tears, hugged Xiaoxiao tightly, and said that no matter what happens in the future, the family of three will never be separated again.

When Meng Xing and I saw the successful conclusion of this trip, we said goodbye to them, and we were going to Qingluo. Before leaving, Meng Xing reluctantly hugged and kissed her a few times, the little girl looked at her quietly, stretched out her hand and gently touched her face, this is a performance of like, which makes Meng Xing very excited, laughing and listening to her mother's words, my sister will come to see you before leaving.

The local police sent a car to take us to Chiang Luo. After arriving in Qingluo, seeing that it was not early, Meng Xing went to the Public Security Bureau first. Due to its proximity to the border and the arduous task of anti-narcotics, the Qingluo Public Security Bureau was established in the form of a military and police system, and the public security bureau was built like a military compound.

Meng Xing is very familiar with the leaders of the bureau, the director and the political commissar were not there that day, and went to the provincial hall for a meeting, and we were received by a deputy director in charge of anti-drug work, and Duan Yu, the prince of Dali in "Tianlong Babu", had a name. Duan Ju was also the master of Meng Xing and Su Jing when they interned at the Qingluo Public Security Bureau, and was the captain of the anti-narcotics brigade that year, and was just promoted to deputy director this year.

He briefly briefed Meng Xing on the progress of Su Jing's case, except for the suspect who killed Su Jing was found in the last shootout at the border, there was no breakthrough in the case, but the police have not given up the investigation.

Meng Xing quietly listened to Duan Ju's introduction, just nodded, and didn't say anything. In fact, in the past few years, she has come to Qingluo many times, and every time the case introduction given by the Qingluo police is the same, it is still those contents, but she still wants to hear it, even if there is no new progress, repeat it more, and she will feel that this case has not been forgotten, Su Jing will not die in vain, her comrades-in-arms and superior leaders are still paying attention to her, and everyone has never given up their efforts.

The Duan Bureau said that it had arranged a guest house for the Public Security Bureau, and we could stay there, and if we wanted to go anywhere in the next few days, the bureau could send a car. Meng Xing shook hands with him and said, no, we just go to see Su Jing, and we may leave in a few days, I don't want to trouble the bureau. Duan Ju was very straightforward, and he was not reluctant, and said okay, call at any time if there is anything.

Leaving the Public Security Bureau, Meng Xing said to me with a little mystery: "Go, take you to a place." ”

She took me in a city view van and drove through the city center to the edge of the city. Qingluo is a small tourist city, the scenery is beautiful, the city buildings are not high, but very chic, although it is not the tourist season, but there are many foreign tourists on the street, there are many performances of ethnic minority dances along the way, there are bursts of cheerful music. The towering trees on both sides of the road form a shady shade, and the bright sunlight falls to the ground through the lush foliage, and the eyes are full of clean green. Meng Xing and I looked at both sides happily, and tourists got on and off the bus from time to time on the way. After passing a local specialty snack garden, there are more tourists in the garden than in other places, Meng Xing said that he was hungry and wanted to eat snacks, so we got off the bus and walked into the snack garden.

The two of them ordered a dozen snacks and ate them on wooden chairs in the shade of the trees. As I ate, I watched the crowd around me, and in the distance I noticed a tall man in a straw hat, wearing a T-shirt and a tattooed arm that looked black and black.

He raised his head and sneered at me, and I froze for a moment, this man looked like a guard. He wore a pendant around his neck, and because of the distance, he didn't know if it was the skull pendant.

I opened my mouth and froze, thinking that I had seen it wrong, and when I tried to see it clearly, the man was gone.

Looking around, there were men in straw hats all around, and I thought that maybe that person just looked like a guard.

But a cold shiver spread throughout the body, a kind of panic from the heart after encountering the unknown.

There are some panics, once they happen, we will never see a safe haven and hope.
