In the urban area, outside the Xizhou Hotel, Shang Ke and the man in the peaked hat sent by his uncle Liu Changxing to pick him up had already met. The two of them were sitting in a jeep on the side of the road. The man was sitting in the driver's seat, looking at him from time to time.
Waiting for time, waiting for something.
The two of them sat for more than 20 minutes, and Shang Ke became a little impatient and asked, "Who are we waiting for to respond?"
"The people who are responsible for land transportation at the border will arrange for you to board the freight train. You will be mixed in with the freight and take the train directly out of the country and directly to Europe." The man in the peaked hat said.
"Can... can you get through this?" Shang Ke was a little worried. He knew that outbound cargo trains were inspected very strictly.
"Don't worry, that company is engaged in foreign trade. Their goods are exported by land, so they are already familiar with the people at the checkpoints along the way. If they can arrange for you to go out, they must have taken care of everything in advance."
He said calmly.
"What about you? Go out with me?" Shang Ke turned to look at the man with a rather uneasy expression. He smuggled out alone and was not familiar with the place. Shang Ke was a little worried for no reason.
"Send you to the border, and my mission will be completed." the man said.
"You won't go out with me?" Shang Ke looked worried.
"Minister Liu just asked me to take you to the border, but he didn't ask me to go out with you." The man shook his head.
"Oh." Shang Ke responded in disappointment.
The two of them waited quietly. Behind them, the provincial government car was parked not far away and turned off. The people in the car silently stared at the jeep in front of them.
In the other two directions, there were also two cars parked on the side of the road. They were the police forces arranged by the provincial department to come to the rescue. Three cars formed a corner and surrounded the jeep.
The two tall and short plainclothes men who were initially responsible for keeping track of the car were all staring at the jeep in front of them.
"Is it possible that we are too nervous?" After staring for who knows how long, the tall plainclothes man rubbed his sore eyes and frowned.
"Don't worry, I always have a hunch that something will happen tonight." The short plainclothes man's eyes narrowed slightly, "On the way we were driving here, you also heard the radio. It rained heavily in Liangbei County today, floods poured in, and there was an earthquake in the county.
There was severe waterlogging, and now the disaster is quite serious. At this time, as the head of a county, Shang Ke did not direct the disaster relief in the county, but went to the city. Isn't this in itself very abnormal? And look at him
I drove by myself today and even carried a travel bag. All these signs are unusual."
"If Shang Ke really wants to run away, it will be shocking news. You said that his uncle is in a high position and has such a high authority. With his uncle taking care of him, what can't he handle? What would have to happen to make him let go?
Do you want to run away?" The tall plainclothes man pointed to the sky and said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Then tell me, why did the superiors ask us to come to Liangbei to keep an eye on Shang Ke? And they asked us to come to Liangbei more than two months in advance to keep an eye on him?" asked the short plainclothes man.
"This..." The tall plainclothes man was speechless.
"It's terrifying if you think about it." The short plainclothes man kept his secrets and said with a solemn expression, "Perhaps, something big is about to happen that we don't know about above. It's okay for the leaders above to let us monitor it just to prevent something from happening.
"
"When you say that, it's really possible." The tall plainclothes man murmured in a low voice, guessing what his companions were implying. The tall man's face was a little shocked, "If you guess it right, then it's another one."
A big earthquake."
"Look, nothing is impossible." The short man said solemnly, "Our task tonight is to keep a close eye on Shang Ke. As long as he has the slightest sign of trying to escape, we will act immediately. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong, we will
I can’t bear it.”
"Yeah." The tall man nodded, looked at the jeep in front of him, and said, "What do you think they were doing in the car? They must have been in the car for half an hour, right?"
"No matter what he does, just keep an eye on him." said the short man.
While the two were talking, someone suddenly approached the jeep in front. The man in the peaked hat got out of the car, said a few words to the other person, and then waved to Shang Ke, indicating that Shang Ke also got out of the car.
The two followed the man into a commercial vehicle driven by the other party and drove in another direction of the city.
"Where are they going?" The tall man in the car asked doubtfully.
"Just follow me." The short man started the car.
Following the commercial vehicle in front, they unknowingly arrived at an office building in the suburbs. Behind the office building was a factory building, with large trucks coming and going from time to time. A striking sign hung on the outer wall of the office building: Yuanzhou
LOGISTICS LIMITED.
Seeing the business car stopped at the office building, Shang Ke entered the office building with two other men. The short plainclothes man said: "Hurry up and have someone check the situation of this logistics company."
There was no need for the short plainclothes man to say anything. The tall man next to him had already taken out his cell phone and was making a call, asking the relevant functional departments in the hall to check on this logistics company.
After waiting for about six or seven minutes, the reply call came. After hearing this, the tall man's face became tense. He put away his phone and said to the short companion next to him: "This is a logistics company specializing in cross-border land transportation.
The scale is not small, there is basically one outbound freight train every three days, and the latest one is tomorrow."
After the tall man finished speaking, he and the short man looked at each other, and they almost said in unison: "This guy really wants to run away!"
"We can't wait any longer, we must act now." The tall man said immediately, "Look at the big trucks coming in and out of the factory. We don't even know which truck we got into when we turned around."
"Yes, we must act immediately." The short man nodded in agreement.
The two of them quickly split up. The short one was responsible for greeting his companions behind, while the tall one reported the current situation to the superiors and reported to the superiors.
Two support vehicles from behind also drove up. Eight people got out of the two vehicles, plus the short man and the tall man, a group of ten people. They came up with an action plan as quickly as possible, and three people guarded the gate.
, temporarily not allowing any freight logistics vehicle to go out. At the same time, the other seven people rushed into the office building immediately. Just in case, while taking action, they once again requested police support from above.
The drizzle fell quietly.
The earth is shrouded in dark clouds.
Rapid footsteps sounded in the office building, and the person involved was not aware of it at all.
As soon as Shang Ke walked into an office, he was told to take the 10 o'clock freight logistics truck departing directly from Xizhou...and for the next dozen hours, he had to stay in a large container until he got on the train.
Even after leaving the country, he couldn't come out. He had to get to his destination and people outside informed him that he was safe before he could come out of the container. In other words, he had to stay in the container for nearly ninety hours.
This made Shang Ke find it hard to accept, and he stared at him and said, "How can this be done? Don't I have to eat, drink, and have diarrhea in these four or five days?"
"Don't worry, County Magistrate Shang, we will prepare enough water and food for you, and the large container will also have ventilation openings to ensure good ventilation. Just be patient and treat it as if you are eating and sleeping, and soon That’s it.” The man from the logistics company said.
"Then I don't have to relieve myself? How can I deal with it in there?" Shang Ke's eyes widened and he shook his head, completely unacceptable.
"This has to make you feel aggrieved. During these four or five days, you should drink as little water as possible and only eat food until you are slightly full. This will reduce the number of times you have to urinate and defecate, and it will pass after you endure it. Of course Yes, we will also prepare some emergency toilet bags for you in the container, which will not make you uncomfortable." The man said again, "By the way, you can also wear diapers. There are adult diapers now, which are actually pretty good. If it’s convenient, you can consider it.”
When Shang Ke heard this, he was dumbfounded, with a look of disbelief on his face. He was reduced to wearing diapers. Isn't this the most ridiculous thing in the world? If this spread, wouldn't he become everyone's joke?
Shang Ke could not accept such a result. Before coming, he never expected to encounter such a situation. He only knew that his uncle would arrange for him to leave the country. He did not need to worry about anything. He only needed to follow the people arranged by his uncle to pick him up. Now, the remaining uncles must have made arrangements for him, so he doesn't need to worry about anything. But he didn't expect to face such a situation. This was a major blow to Shang Ke's self-esteem. For him who has always been pampered and pampered, It was even more unbearable pain. For more than ninety hours, he had to eat, drink, and defecate in a large container. What was the difference between such torture and purgatory on earth?
Thinking about it, Shang Ke suddenly felt aggrieved and his eyes couldn't help but turn red. How could this happen? He was still the dignified head of a county this morning. Why did he have to go through such pain and suffering in the evening? If there was still time, If he could start over, would he still take the path of the system? Or if he could choose again, would he choose to be a good cadre who is conscientious and responsible?
There really is no medicine for regret in this world! You can still feel regret in an instant, but if you had known now, why bother in the beginning!
All kinds of feelings came to his heart, and Shang Ke couldn't control his tears. He turned his head, not wanting others to see his vulnerable side, but his reaction had already fallen into the eyes of others. The person in charge of sending Shang off But when the man in the cap at the border saw Shang Ke's appearance, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly. How could a man like Liu Changxing have such a nephew?
I really answered that sentence, I am a hero and a bear. Although Shang Ke is not Liu Changxing's son, he knows that Liu Changxing treats him as his son. He didn't expect Shang Ke to be so incompetent.
