Following the location Ling Kong told me, I arrived at a dilapidated warehouse on Gonghe New Road in Zhabei District.
I parked the car outside and walked toward the gate with the help of some streetlights outside. The warehouse only had three floors, and the outer walls were very dilapidated, with some creepers growing sparsely. The courtyard was full of wasteland and overgrown with weeds.
It seems that this place is at least 40 or 50 years old, and was built shortly after liberation.
I called Ling Kong and told him that I had arrived. He said in a hoarse voice, "Wait a moment" and hung up the phone.
I squinted my eyes and looked up. The high walls surrounding the warehouse courtyard were about 3 meters high. They were covered with many glass shards and bright spikes made of cement, ready to make any intruder pay a heavy price at any time. From the inside
A man walked out of the dilapidated warehouse. He was about thirty years old. Although he was very lean and wore a vest, shorts, and slippers, he looked slovenly. But when he got closer, he saw that this man's eyes were very sharp, and he seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.
It looks like he is probably a person in the organization who specializes in interrogation.
"Hello!" I thought Ling Kong had already greeted me, so I said first.
"What do you call it?" the man responded warily.
"Lin You."
"How did you find this place?"
"Ling Kong told me the address. Did he tell you?"
"I told you, just to confirm." With that, Ji Chunhua opened the iron chain lock wrapped around the iron door.
"Did Li Qianyu escape from here?" After a few pleasantries, I asked the man who called himself Ji Chunhua.
Ji Chunhua said "hmm" and said nothing. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be dismissive of me, a young guy who had just joined the gang.
I followed Ji Chunhua towards the warehouse and asked as I walked: "This place seems very big. Are there any gaps in the surrounding walls?"
"No." Ji Chunhua sniffed and said.
"Has it been renovated?" I said, looking at the glass particles on the wall. If it had not been renovated, these glass particles would no longer be sharp after decades.
"Um."
Seeing him being so indifferent, I stopped talking, looked around with my eyes, and stopped talking. From the outside, this warehouse only had a few windows on the first and third floors, all of which were iron-clad.
The fence was sealed. When he walked to the gate, Ji Chunhua pressed his finger on the fingerprint scanner next to him, and the gate opened in response.
There are digital buttons on the fingerprint scanner, and the appropriate fingerprint and correct digital password should be able to open this door.
Although this warehouse is very shabby on the outside, the walls have been repainted on the inside and there is no particularly stale smell.
I walked straight to the first room on the left on the first floor.
"What are you doing?" Ji Chunhua said coldly.
"Isn't this room yours?"
"how do you know?"
"I saw from the outside that there is an air conditioner in this room," I said, "You are not kind enough to install air conditioners for the people detained here, right?"
Ji Chunhua sniffed and said nothing.
This room looks like a student dormitory, with two bunk beds, which can accommodate a total of four people. There are tables beside the two beds. There are quilts spread out on each bed, which seems to be sleeping.
It hasn't been folded since. There are some half-eaten bowls of instant noodles scattered on the table.
I asked Ji Chunhua: "This is what you eat here?"
"Late snack. Someone comes here every day to deliver food."
"Who brought the food?"
"People in the organization."
"Just give it away and leave?"
"Um."
"Did anything get lost in this building after they escaped?"
"No."
"What were they wearing at the time?" I asked as I walked towards the door of the room.
"They are all factory workers' overalls, short-sleeved."
"Li Qianyu is only wearing that one piece? Is it just underwear underneath?"
"Underwear?" Ji Chunhua chuckled twice and said, "Who will put underwear on her?"
Looking at his expression, I thought that Li Qianyu's life here might not be easy. If a powerful enough organization deliberately wants to imprison you and erase you from this world, you will lose any dignity and human rights.
It can be said that to the guards, it is just a bag of flesh and blood. If it falls into the hands of these people, it is common for it to be beaten or humiliated.
Although I think of Li Qianyu's past evil deeds, I can't feel much pity for her, but if I think about it, even she, facing this prison and the vicious guardian, probably lives in fear every day.
I said to Ji Chunhua: "Take me to see where Li Qianyu lives."
Ji Chunhua took me to the third floor. When I passed the second floor, I saw that the entire entrance to the building was sealed by an iron fence. It seemed to be a large space inside, but it was dark and I couldn't see clearly what it was. I asked Ji Chunhua, he
Just say that it is an interrogation room and say no more.
On the third floor, there was also a large iron door at the stairway, which was locked with an iron lock. Ji Chunhua opened the lock, pulled the heavy latch and walked in. There are rooms on both sides of this floor, just like a hotel. The one in the middle
The room was where Li Qianyu was imprisoned.
I looked at the room carefully. Although the window was large, as I saw from the outside, there were iron bars as thick as a finger. I tried to pull the window open, and it was able to be opened.
Ji Chunhua sneered from behind and said, "You don't think they escaped through this iron fence, do you?"
I smiled and said how could it be possible? It was difficult to even stretch out my arms from this fence. Li Qianyu's two lumps of flesh would definitely get stuck. As he said that, he made cup-shaped hands with his hands and raised them in front of his chest.
Ji Chunhua laughed, and his previous indifferent expression softened somewhat.
This room is similar to a cell. There is a fluorescent light on the top, flickering slightly, and it looks like it is about to go out at any moment. The light switch is outside the door, and it is estimated that unless someone organized comes in to interrogate, the light will not be turned on at night.
The people locked here can only live in fear of darkness. The floor is dusty and no one cleans it. There is only a table, a chair and a bed, and there is a toilet in the corner. The quilt on the bed is estimated to be 800 yuan.
It hasn't been washed for years, it's dirty and black, and it's almost as hard as iron.
I asked Ji Chunhua: "Has Ling Kong been here before? Who else is here besides you?"
"Ling Kong has not been here. But his female secretary has been here. There are three more people here, and now they are all out looking for these two escaped guys."
"Are all the other three men men? Did they come in here?"
"Don't come in. Only Yang Ruihan and I have come in here. The other three people have gone to wait for those guys."
"Except for the guy named Red Eagle, everyone else is dead? How did they die? Where are the bodies? How were they disposed of?"
Ji Chunhua twitched his nose and said calmly: "What can I do if I die? Wait until night, bundle up the stones and throw them into the river. When the rope is soaked and the person floats, you won't be able to recognize who it is."
I felt terrified. This guy was as cruel and ruthless as Li Qianyu's group. These two groups were definitely fighting for their own good.
The door of this room is a double-layered iron plate, completely sealed. The door latch on the outside is also as thick as a finger, and a huge lock hangs on it. Both ends of the door latch are welded to the door frame. As long as it is locked, it will probably be locked.
Even with Zhao Chen's side kick, he couldn't break out from inside.
I asked Ji Chunhua: "When did they escape?"
"Maybe it was the night before yesterday. When we came to deliver food to her at noon, we found that no one was there."
"When was it locked in?"
"She has been locked in there. The morning before yesterday, we pulled her out and questioned her once. We locked her back in the afternoon and gave her a meal in the evening."
"When did the others die?"
Ji Chunhua said: "Those pustules couldn't hold on for a long time, and they hung up a few days ago. Only the one named Chi Ying was still tough. He tried to kill him several times and didn't say anything."
I asked casually: "To put it bluntly, this place is a concentration camp, right?"
"What's the meaning?"
"As long as you come here, no matter whether you do it or not, the end result will be the same?"
"Of course, hehe. If you have a certain status, it's hard to say if you kill him or let him out in the end, you won't be locked up here. In this place, there is no return, that's for sure."
I felt a chill running down my back, and asked quickly, "Besides the two of them, has anyone else run away before?"
"there has never been."
"After they were imprisoned, are there any other people imprisoned here?"
"No. It's been quiet lately," Ji Chunhua said, "We haven't lived here for a while."
I asked: "Why didn't the government plan to demolish this dilapidated building and rebuild it?"
Ji Chunhua said, don’t ask me about this, I don’t know.
I walked out of the room and looked at this gloomy floor under the dim light. I don’t know how many people brought in by the organization have been detained in this place, and how many people have died here. At least at this moment, my impression of the organization is already bad.
Extremely disrespectful to human life, no matter what the reason, I cannot accept this fact.
However, if I were the leader of this organization and caught people like Li Qianyu and Chi Ying, it would be impossible for them to be handed over to the police. After all, there are too many things involved with them. It would be even less possible for them to be released to see the light of day again and return to the police.
In the arms of the enemy, there is really no other option but to be imprisoned here until old age.
Just as I was sighing secretly, Ji Chunhua said: "How is it, have you finished reading? I'm going to close the door."
I nodded. The door behind me was closed with a bang.
To escape from this place, you have to pass through at least three iron gates. How did Li Qianyu and the killer Chi Ying escape?
I looked back at this eerie iron prison that seemed to hold countless ghosts, and I was puzzled.
