Police officer Chen Shu.

Ma Rongcheng picked the nearest room, tiptoed and glanced inside. It was similar to the student dormitory of Huaguo High School, with four bunk beds against the wall, a shelf by the toilet door, and nothing else.

Interestingly, the shelf that was clearly meant for the washbasin was completely empty, as was the metal frame bed. Apart from the bare wooden planks, there were no bedding or sheets as one would expect.

There wasn't much dust in the room, so someone must have lived there recently. Thinking about it that way, the answer became obvious: these personal belongings had clearly been packed up and taken away.

Ma Rongcheng then went to check the other rooms, which were all empty.

"Why."

Ma Rongcheng sighed. Although he knew this would be the outcome, he still felt bad when it actually happened. He was already quite old and had come all the way from China, hoping to achieve something.

creak creak.

Xiao Wang, who came from the Donghai Provincial Department, didn't care much about the current situation. He pushed aside the iron bunk bed that was blocking his way, walked quickly to the balcony, leaned on the railing with both hands, and looked out at the small hill to the north through the sealed security window.

There were a few scattered trees on the hill, but they weren't very dense.

Xiao Wang stared at the small hill in the distance, squinting and pondering for a long time. Only when it matched his thoughts did he relax his brow, shake his head excitedly, and exclaim, "This is it!"

Who is Ma Rongcheng? He is Yunnan's top detective. He discovered a long time ago that this guy from Donghai, who was supposedly the secretary of a leader, was hiding a lot of secrets. But this guy was young after all and couldn't keep them hidden.

Seeing this situation, Ma Rongcheng naturally understood and moved over.

Ma Rongcheng smiled and said, "Little Wang, what did you find? I know this place well. If you need any help, just let me know. We're all on the same side!"

Xiao Wang nodded and agreed.

He absolutely couldn't handle such a big case by himself.

......

The park is larger than Chen Shu imagined.

After entering through the main gate, there is a straight cement road with fairly neat shrubs planted on both sides. Behind the shrubs, there is even a well-maintained outdoor basketball court.

According to Wang Yan, the northernmost part of the park, near the river, is designated as a villa area. The detached houses are built to villa specifications and are intended for the living of the high-level management within the park.

If you're looking for something, that's a good place to go.

Zhu Yiba, one of the three, was the last.

Since entering the park, he had become unusually silent, his eyes quickly scanning his surroundings as if searching for something, yet his expression seemed timid and hesitant, as if he were running away from something.

This contradictory state of mind easily caught Chen Shu's eye. He didn't remind him, but intentionally or unintentionally kept Zhu Yiba by his side, preventing him from acting alone.

As Ma Wing-shing said, the park is indeed empty.

"They ran so cleanly," Wang Yan whispered.

Chen Shu didn't reply, but walked slowly down the road. His gaze swept over the open doors of the office buildings and dormitories, the balconies upstairs, and the areas separated by iron railings, finally landing on the entrance of a white building not far away.

A group of people were standing on the steps.

Aung Soe Ling stood at the front, with armed guards behind him and several local government officials, while U Nyunt Soe, Badu La, Lin Hua, and others from Myanmar stood on the side.

"Commander Chen!" Ang Suoling greeted him with a smile, extending his hands from afar. His smile was gentle, and he spoke fluent Mandarin. "I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting. The park is too big. Even with so many of us here, we've only just finished searching it once."

Chen Shu also politely shook Ang Suoling's hand, feeling the rough and strong texture, which was indeed the hand of a soldier who had been holding a gun for many years.

Chen Shu smiled and nodded, saying, "County Chief, you're too kind. Your personal visit with the team is already a great show of sincerity. By the way, what have we gained?"

"Of course!" Ang Soling turned to the side and gestured "please" towards the white building.

He led Chen Shu and the others straight into the white building, and without thinking, headed east through the lobby. After turning a corner, a staircase leading to the basement appeared before them.

Descending the stairs, you enter a sizable underground prison, dark and damp, filled with the stench of decay. There are about ten cells in total, their iron bars rusted, and most of them are empty.

Several policemen stood at the door of a cell on the west side. Inside the cell, there were about twenty or thirty people crammed into a small, dimly lit cell, looking like they were barely clinging to life.

Some of them sat on the ground or leaned against the wall, while others huddled in a corner. They were all men, with disheveled hair, haggard faces, and empty eyes that showed no sign of life.

When the crowd arrived, they didn't even bother to lift their eyelids, even though all of them were wearing police uniforms.

Snapped.

popping.

Ang Suoling brought Chen Shu and the others over. The policemen guarding the gate snapped to attention and stood ramrod straight. Ang Suoling nodded slightly to them, as if to say "at ease."

"Two managers, twenty members, and one kidnapped civilian, a total of twenty-three people, all from your country, China. Hmm, this is the relevant information; a thorough investigation should yield good results." Ang Suling took the file bag from his subordinate, handed it to Chen Shu without even glancing at it, and the data he presented was quite accurate.

Among the twenty-three people were managers of criminal organizations, low-level members engaged in actual telecommunications fraud, and even a kidnapped civilian. It's safe to say that Dalalin put a lot of thought into this scapegoat assignment.

Chen Shu nodded, took the document bag, and deliberately remarked, "The county magistrate has made excellent preparations."

Ang Suoling pretended not to understand the sarcasm in Chen Shu's words and politely replied, "Of course, of course."

Dengdengdeng.

Just then, footsteps came from the direction of the stairs.

In no time, a group of Burmese media personnel rushed in carrying cameras and spotlights, instantly turning the already small basement into a crowded space, and making the gloomy prison cell lively.

The light suddenly shone precisely on Ang Soling.

There were many reporters on site, but the interview was very orderly. Without any organization, a well-dressed female reporter walked respectfully to Ang Soling and began the live broadcast in the local language.

"Introduce the county magistrate's resume, then explain the origin of this operation. Next, we should invite Ang Soling to speak. That's roughly the process, similar to what we have in China."

As a police liaison officer, Wang Yan served as the official translator for Chen Shu and his group.

"First, I want to thank the Chinese Ministry of Public Security for their support, and also thank Commander Chen for his support from afar." Ang Soling, with a stern expression, spoke in Mandarin during the interview. "On behalf of the Dalalin Autonomous Region government, I solemnly promise that we will fully cooperate with the joint law enforcement operation between the two countries to completely eradicate the telecommunications fraud, gambling, and kidnapping chains within the Dalalin Autonomous Region, with zero tolerance! Regarding the criminals arrested and the Chinese civilians rescued in this operation, we will uphold..."

Chen Shu walked around the crowd to the front of the prison cell, his gaze sweeping over the numb faces.

These people are generally older, with virtually no young people. According to Chen Shu's understanding, they should be people who are eliminated from the telecom fraud company because they are not capable enough to meet performance targets and whose physical condition does not meet the standards.

The so-called managers are probably just temporary promotions from these lower-level members. They would never be able to get into the core circle of the telecom fraud organization. Even if they were arrested and interrogated for a year or two, they wouldn't get any useful information.

They took advantage of the momentum of this joint operation and were made scapegoats.

The best outcome would be a smooth return to China, and then everyone would be happy.

"What a happy ending for everyone!"

Chen Shu sneered.

I like Policeman Chen Shu.
