Chapter 883: The True Purpose of the Trip to Southeast Asia
Routine inspections of merchant ships, which is a very common thing on the Mekong.
Especially in the Golden Triangle region, as long as the law enforcement boat sees a suspicious merchant ship, it will ask for inspection, after all, as long as the illegal merchant ship is found, the credit will be gained.
It is estimated that Song Phasan also has this idea, patrolling the Mekong River is not a day or two, but a boat to run back and forth every day, no matter how beautiful the scenery on both sides of the river, it is like that.
Therefore, in public and private, he hopes to gain something.
The radio communication warned the merchant ship to stop moving forward, and asked all the people inside to stand on the deck, but it was not over, Song Pashan asked Tan Jianjun to put down the kayak, and at the same time let the reconnaissance drone fly over for a preliminary inspection.
Xu Zheng and Zhong Kaiping are responsible for controlling a drone, DJI's, but it has been modified, in addition to a rotatable camera, there is also an infrared thermal meter.
There is also a function to identify odors and send out electric shock bullets.
Zhong Kaiping had received three months of intensive training before he came, and he knew how to control this kind of drone, and Xu Zheng was on the side to assist this time.
As the drone lifted off, the camera shared the field of view and projected it onto a screen in the cabin, and everyone could clearly see that all the people in the 5601-1 merchant ship were already standing on the deck.
Looking at the reconnaissance drone flying past.
Both run freight on this river, and both sides are accustomed to routine inspections of law enforcement boats.
The merchant ship was very cooperative, not only did everyone come out, but the cabin windows were also opened at the same time, allowing the drone to get close to observe, and Song Pashan watched the information returned by the drone.
There was no hidden person in the cabin, the smell recognition did not detect the smell of illegal drugs, and the cargo hold did not see the prohibited items, he waved his hand and took the team of four people to take a kayak to prepare to go on the merchant ship to inspect it personally.
Xu Zheng followed behind, and just now he saw clearly through the telescope that there were several faces of people from the country who planted flowers on this merchant ship, and he didn't know whether they were from Yunshan Province or a certain area in northern Myanmar.
Although he was curious, he only looked at the expressions on the faces of those crew members with impatience and indifference, and he was not afraid or cowering, plus this merchant ship No. 5601-1 was departing from Yunshan Province.
According to the filing information, the goods pulled on the ship are melons, fruits, vegetables and diesel, and there are a total of seven crew members on it, all of whom are from the country of flowers, and the destination of the merchant ship is reported as Vientiane, Laos.
"Captain Songpashan, I thought you were leading the team from afar, but I really didn't expect you to continue to be on duty this year."
As soon as he boarded the merchant ship, an old man with dark skin in black short sleeves spoke fluent English and greeted him with a smirk.
As he spoke, he took out a plastic bag from the cabinet next to him and handed it to Song Pashan.
Song Pashan was obviously used to being given gifts, and he wore sunglasses on his face and never took them off, so Xu Zheng couldn't see his performance, but he seemed to be looking at the old man who was talking to him.
"I'm sorry this gentleman, our six-nation patrol is doing a routine inspection, thank you for your cooperation." As he spoke, he turned on the walkie-talkie on his chest with one hand.
Seeing this scene, the old man cooperated very well and put the plastic bag in his hand at the feet of Song Pashan at will, "Our Yuping merchant ship belongs to the Qingmei Company of Yunshan Province, the country of planting flowers.
The goods transported are registered at the time of customs clearance.
You can send someone to check it at will."
Song Pashan stopped inking, and with a wave of his hand, Xu Zheng and the others divided into two teams to inspect the entire ship.
Sure enough, it was similar to what Xu Zheng guessed, and after some inspection, everyone did not find that this merchant ship was transporting prohibited items, and the identities of all the crew members were no problem.
Seeing this result, Song Pashan did not embarrass the old man, but got off the boat with the members of the joint law enforcement team.
The smile on the old man's face never stopped, and when Xu Zheng and the others were about to get off the boat, he hurriedly took the black plastic bag and put it on the kayak of the law enforcement team.
Song Pashan didn't seem to see it, and the others didn't stop it, Xu Zheng actually flashed a trace of discomfort in his heart, and he didn't know what the reason was, probably because he thought that doing business was probably like this.
Everyone returned to the law enforcement boat, waited for Tan Jianguo and his mechanical and electrical team to recover the kayak, and then continued north.
At ten o'clock in the evening, they rushed to the pass of Jinghong City, Yunshan Province, where everyone rested for the night and returned to Huisun the next day.
For two days and one night, Xu Zhengzhi saw the so-called Mekong River patrol mission for the first time, and the road was safe, and a total of seven or eight boats were inspected, probably because the section of the water they patrolled was close to Yunshan Province.
Most of the merchant ships were flower growing countries.
They travel to and from Southeast Asia, and most of the commodities they transport are fruits and vegetables, such as rice and durian from Thailand, pineapple and mango from Laos, rambutan...
Although Xu Zheng himself has not bought fruits, he can also see that the fruits here are obviously much cheaper than those in China, and the quality is not to mention, at least they are kept fresh.
Like Thai durian, it is 100% genuine, not from other countries in Southeast Asia.
Of course, he was not very particular about eating fruits, and he didn't think about buying some while he was patrolling and sending them back to China.
After dinner on the third day of his stay in Laos, Zhang Haishan organized a short meeting to share his thoughts on patrolling the Mekong River.
"Xiao Xu, tell me first, can you adapt here?"
Xu Zhenglai had studied the patrol mission before coming and carefully read the relevant information, and knew that the Mekong River today is much safer than it was more than ten years ago, so the corresponding credit will be much less.
When he came back from this patrol, what he saw and heard made him realize that it is really difficult to be a peacekeeper here, but it is definitely a good place to gild.
Of course, it would be great if mosquito bites could be eliminated.
"It's good everywhere here, but there is a point, there are many mosquito thieves, and it's better at the station, but on the ship, it's hard to prevent."
Zhong Kaiping nodded on the side, like them, they live in big cities, with perfect infrastructure, clean and beautiful environment, and mosquitoes are basically not seen all day and season.
He scratched the red bumps on his arm and counted them, "Look, my arm has been heavily salted in flower water, but it doesn't do anything at all.
Isn't our domestically produced toilet water able to cure mosquitoes on the Mekong River?"
Zhang Haishan patted his thick arm, "There is no way to do this, the flower water will volatilize, I only have one suggestion, that is, if you bite too much, your skin will naturally become hard." Look at me, I went out and didn't have a bag on me."
While eating the fruits they had just bought outside the station, everyone shared what they had seen and heard on the patrol mission.
Next time, it will probably follow the Mekong River all the way south to Ho Chi Minh City.
It may not be such a long patrol, or maybe it will return to Cambodia.
But now Xu Zheng has figured it out, the so-called six countries patrol the Mekong River, looking at the area is very large, the area under control is not small, and the inspection of hundreds of ships every month.
But it is rare to come across a ship in question.
So, he's ready to lie down and ready to shift his focus to something else.
The first weekend came as scheduled, and Xu Zheng walked out of the station early in the morning, the capital of Bokeo Province in Laos, a small city of less than 100,000 people.
The town buildings are not even as good as the ordinary towns in the country of flowers.
Fortunately, although the sparrow is small, there is a sun-drying airport, which can lead to a down payment to any country in Southeast Asia.
When Xu Zheng came out today, he was wearing local clothes, which was actually somewhat similar to the clothes worn by young people in the 190s in China, and most of them wore shirts.
The hem of the shirt should be tucked into the waistband of the trousers.
Through his observation in the past few days, he found that there are many boys and girls here, maybe because of different tastes, and the women he sees here are far less beautiful than those in China, and they are generally black, thin, and short.
However, the scenery here looks good, perhaps it belongs to the tropical and subtropical monsoon climate, with an average temperature of 26 throughout the year, so it is basically evergreen all year round.
As he walked, he observed the scenery along the way, and soon he found the person he was looking for at a stall of women in red dresses on the side of the road.
Smell people
Mu Yue was dressed as a Lao national woman, her clothes were colorful, she looked very beautiful, and she had a silver fork two fingers wide in her hair pulled up.
He also wears a round and thick silver necklace around his neck.
If this is in China, there will be as much soil as possible, especially since she deliberately smeared herself in order to cover her beautiful face and skin.
But even so, she stands out from the crowd here, no way, she is 1.7 meters tall, while Lao women are generally 1.5 meters, in comparison, Wenren Muyue is too conspicuous here.
There was a white man sitting next to her, Xu Zheng looked very unfamiliar, but from the size and demeanor, he guessed at a glance that this person was the helper he found from prison.
Jason. Doug.
He was a Westerner who pretended to come here to travel after Yi Rong, and Wen Ren Mu Yue was the local tour guide he hired, and both of them saw Xu Zheng, but they didn't say hello.
Instead, he pretended to have finished breakfast and got up and walked in the direction of a nearby hotel.
Xu Zheng waited until they entered the hotel, pretending to observe the nearby shops, and then saw that no one was paying attention to him, and then followed into the hotel.
The hotel here is not like the kind of camera that must be installed in China, and there are some places where they do not have cameras, and after Xu Zheng entered, he heard that Mu Yue was waiting for him in the hall.
As soon as they met, both of them spoke fluent Lao and chatted, that is, Zhu language, and their faces were slightly disguised, so it can basically be said that they are not much different from Laotians except for their height.
The hotel proprietress looked at the two of them as if they were old friends, and did not say anything to ask.
Seeing Xu Zheng walking into the room, Jason. Doug's face was full of frustration, "Xu, I already regret it, compared to here, your country's prison is like heaven."
If anything goes very smoothly at the beginning, it must be a small matter, and what Xu Zheng and they want to do is very simple, that is, to find out the abduction and trafficking of women and children in Southeast Asian countries.
and those underground organizations that do the human snake business and illegal organs.
As for those who make illegal drugs, this time it is not within the scope of Xu Zheng's investigation.
"Jason, you Caucasian people are like uncles in this land, the women here come and go when they are called, and the men here are inferior when they deal with you.
Freedom and an inexhaustible supply of beauty, isn't this a paradise?"
"No, no, no!" Jason shook his head frantically and secretly glanced at Mu Yue, "Xu, let's not talk about freedom, as for the beauties, the women here seem to smell the same as the big turtles on the shore of Las Vegas."
Why don't they use deodorant?"
"Great turtles!" Xu Zheng didn't expect it to be like this, he hadn't smelled anything about this thing, but it must have been very smelly when he thought about it, "You think people stink, and people think you look like a brown bear."
Races and living habits are different, although the yellow race does not have a strong body odor, in the eyes of the white race, the taste is not much better.
As for the black race... Most of the marathons held in various provinces and cities in China for so many years have been won by blacks.
There are many reasons, one of which is that whoever follows behind the black man will not be able to open his eyes.
Seeing that the two of them were talking more and more outrageous, Mu Yue slapped the table angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, get down to business."
Xu Zheng: We've been here for more than a month, and to be honest, the news we've heard isn't very good."
It turned out that the two of them acted separately after coming to Southeast Asia, and Wen Ren Muyue was forced to use her domestic connections this time, so she and Jason privately used their own means to investigate.
Both of them are people who have done tasks here, and more than a month later, they still find out some news.
It's just all bad news.
"I found out about a multinational organization in Indonesia that abducted and trafficked children from East Asian countries, and the end was very tragic.
Some were gouged out and noses cut or severely disfigured, and then thrown into the street to beg. Some are keeping potential children for organ transplants.
Some of them are beautiful, and they will be taught all kinds of knowledge and training in entertaining people.
…
The abducted children are treated differently and in different places, with most of the beggars scattered across Southeast Asia and beautiful children in a private school in Indonesia.
The organs are in a few black factories.
What should we do in situations like these?"
Nowadays, the domestic crackdown on abduction, especially in the last year or two, has achieved great results, but no matter how great the results are, there will always be many abducted children and women who cannot be found.
Generally speaking, the domestic police assume that the abducted children and women who cannot be found have died.
In fact, some of them were abducted and trafficked abroad by various underground organizations, like a big Internet celebrity on Douyin looking for relatives, with five or six million fans, and they have been searching for relatives on Douyin for nearly 20 years and still have no results.
Ruling out that his child had already died, the most likely scenario would be that his child had been abducted abroad.
Before Xu Zheng came to Southeast Asia this time, he was preparing to take advantage of this trip to find out how many kinds of abducted children and women are still in these countries.
Salvation must be saved, how to save, who to save first, how to save the country...
These series of questions were placed in front of Xu Zheng one by one, and he also felt a little confused in the confused eyes of Mu Yue, who should be sure of first and who to save first.
Begging, pretty, organ, nurturing... Turning into a dood-toe appeared in his mind.
The thought of someone as cute as Dudu being gouged out and his nose cut out makes him want to kill those snake traffickers in a fit of rage.
And those organs, while doing hard labor, waiting for their organs to be removed, he wanted to send them all back to China at once.
As for those beautiful children and nurtured children, as well as children and women whose lives are not in danger for the time being, Xu Zheng couldn't make a decision not to save them back to China.
In addition to these, he also has to consider that after rescuing these children, one or two are minor problems, and if there are too many, he can't deal with them at all.
The first is money, including all the current expenses of Wenren Muyue and Jason, which are all used by Jason's money.
This money may be repaid.
Like begging children who are severely disfigured or missing arms and legs, after being rescued, their biological parents recognize it as a large expense, and if they don't admit it, they can only hand it over to local welfare institutions.
But the money for surgery and prosthetics for these children ... Xu Zheng thought of Xu Hongdou for this money and was going to find her to cover it.
Xu Zheng had been thinking about one question after another for several months, he regained his composure from his confusion, and said to the two of them seriously: "In the past six months, the two of you have only one task, which is to collect intelligence.
The more detailed, the better.
As for which children to save first, we can wait for half a year to discuss it according to the statistics."
Jason saw that Xu Zheng and the two were sure of the direction, and he rubbed his thumb and forefinger together, "Xu, collect intelligence and buy news, as well as stay and eat to find women... You can't just make me pay for it myself!
Xu, your ability to draw flatbread is as greedy as Grande's."
Xu Zheng touched his nose in embarrassment, because this is a secret matter, and once it is exposed, the state may not admit it, so they have no funds to handle the case for this kind of thing.
"Jason, keep an eye on it, see where the lambs are fat and easy to get, and when I pass, the two of us will work together to make a profit."
"I knew you weren't a good person!" Jason cracked his mouth, "I'm already looking forward to going on a sweep with you.
I learned a word in the prisons of your country, the three-light policy.
Otherwise, perhaps..."
didn't wait for Xu Zheng to speak, Wen Ren Mu Yue glanced at the two of them, she understood the difficulty of not having money, but she had a bottom line, "You can only take money, you can't kill people, and everyone knows that you can't make trouble."
It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, there are really many things that cannot be done without money, and abroad, Xu Zheng has no opinion on black eating black.
Anyway, their money was robbed, but now they are robbed by him, and then used to destroy them, which is considered a cycle of cause and effect, and the retribution is unpleasant.
"Mu Yue is right, what we do is right, and we take money to help them do good deeds.
Jason, what do you say?"
"Xu is right, God will praise us!" Jason doesn't blame himself for robbery, he even thinks that the strong deserve it.
He is not worried at all about whether he will stab the hornet's nest in the future, because he will push everything on Xu Zheng.
Whoever wants to take revenge can go to Xu Zheng, when the task is completed, this broken place, he will not be ready to come again for the rest of his life.
Xu Zheng looked at the time, he couldn't come out for too long, "Then let's say this first, you will come over once a month in the future, or I will contact you to inform each other of the latest news."
Before leaving, he asked Wenren Muyue, this trip to Southeast Asia, he only wanted Jason to help him.
After knowing what he wanted to do, Mu Yue had to come over to help, and after Ou Zhengxin found out, not only did he not persuade his cousin, but also supported him.
Even their parents said that if Xu Zheng made a big news, they could help and endorse it.
"Mu Yue, you pay attention to safety, it's still the same sentence, this mission can fail, everything is based on your own safety."
Jason pouted on the side, and on the way here, he met with Wenren Muyue, and found that there were two tails behind him, obviously tracking and protecting the woman in front of him.
"Xu, you're not worried about my safety?"
Xu Zheng wanted to say that he was not worried, but as soon as the words came out, "Of course I am worried, but I am more worried about the safety of your opponent, Jason, don't kill people unless necessary."
