Chapter Twenty-six Complaint for Blocking the Sedan
◎Chapter 26: Stopping the sedan chair to complain
On January 20, 2009, during the severe cold season, the north wind howled and dripping water turned into ice. Red lanterns were hung in front of the public security department, neon lights flashed on the green trees, and the ten-mile long street was filled with the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival.
A luxury car drove out. Seeing this, an old woman walked to the middle of the road and knelt down with a stick.
The driver braked suddenly and the car stopped suddenly.
The old woman had unkempt hair and ragged clothes, and her gray hair was blown by the cold wind, covering her face full of wrinkles. The gray-haired old man suddenly knelt in the middle of the road, with a stick and a dirty bedroll on the ground.
Her body was hunched, but she held a piece of white paper high above her head.
There are two words written on the white paper in black and white: Help!
The driver came down and angrily scolded the old man: You don't want to live anymore, do you know whose car this is?
The old woman walked a few steps on her knees and wanted to hug the driver's leg. She said: "Save me, my little grandson is lost."
The driver hurriedly backed away, pointed at the old man and said: Stop, there is the deputy minister of the Ministry of Public Security and four police officers from the special case team in the car. How brave you are.
The old man threw himself on the ground, kowtowed to the car, and shouted: Lord Qingtian, help me!
The driver ignored the old man, turned around and got into the car, reversed the car a short distance, then moved forward and drove around the old man.
The old man touched his head to the ground and couldn't kneel down, just like a stubborn stone.
Bai Jingyu and the special case team were about to attend the Spring Festival Gala of the public security system. They encountered an old woman who stopped the car and knelt down. The four members of the special case team noticed that the old woman's pants were frayed at the knees, revealing her homespun cotton pants.
, she had knelt down many times. The bedding was covered with dust and was also wrapped in a gray plastic sheet, indicating that this old man slept on the street in the cold wind every night.
In addition to morality and law, there is also a supreme judgment, and that is human conscience.
The car drove far away and stopped again. Hualong and Bao Zhan got out of the car and went back to help the old man up.
This old man came from the Yimeng Mountains and spoke a southwestern Shandong dialect. She rambled for a long time before she explained her tragic experience clearly. Her little grandson Dandan was abducted by human traffickers. It has been a year and there has been no news. Dandan’s grandfather died because of
Feeling guilty, Dandan's mother was bedridden, and Dandan's father endured the grief and supported the broken home by himself. The old woman was over seventy years old, leaning on a stick, and resolutely walked out of the house. Over the past year,
, has gone through many hardships, traveled to many places, and has been looking for her little grandson. She has never thought of giving up. If she cannot find it, she will not go home again.
The special case team invited the old man into the office. The old man said to himself that his life was miserable, but fortunately the government made the decision.
Professor Liang asked: How do you eat this year?
The old woman said: Just beg for food, there are still many good people, and there is a lot of money, I have saved it all.
Su Mei took out her own snacks, a box of chocolates, several bags of preserved fruits and beef jerky, and placed them in front of the old woman.
The old woman said: My dear, it’s so nice to be so kind. I have no teeth and can’t bite. Just pour me some hot soup or hot water.
Su Mei felt sad for a while, made a cup of coffee and handed it to the old woman.
The old woman took out a broken teapot from the bedroll, poured the coffee into it, drank it with her hands, and said: "Bitter and sweet at the same time."
Hualong said: Madam, it’s almost the Chinese New Year, why don’t we take you home. As long as your local police file a case, they will help you find your grandson.
The old woman said: They didn't look for me, so I looked for the central government. I am from Yimeng Mountain. I treated injuries for the People's Liberation Army, baked pancakes, and collected shoe soles. That year, there was a big leader who rode a horse.
He told me that if there is any difficulty in the future, just go to the central government. For so many years, I gritted my teeth and got through it. Now, my little grandson has been lost and taken away. My whole family cannot survive.
I came to the central government.
During the Anti-Japanese War and the War of Liberation, the dedication of the people of Yimeng Mountain was well-known throughout the country. In that era when the fighting situation was extremely severe and the material conditions were extremely difficult, tens of thousands of Yimeng women made huge sacrifices. The founding of New China was the result of the common people
Pushed out in a wheelbarrow, the milk of Yimeng sisters and Yimeng Hongsao nourished the children of soldiers.
Professor Liang said to Bai Jingyu:
This is an old man from an old revolutionary base. The promise he made back then seems to be fulfilled now.
Bai Jingyu said: This is not in line with the procedures. In today's society governed by the rule of law, there are still things like blocking sedan chairs and calling for injustice. Once this trend starts, I don't know how many people will kneel at the door. The special case team is not a private detective. It is only responsible for detecting crimes that occur across the country.
For serious homicide cases, it is better to let the local police take responsibility for finding abducted children.
The old woman asked: What is a private detective?
Bao Zhan replied: I just give you money and help you find someone to investigate.
The old woman untied her cotton-padded jacket and took out a plastic bag containing washing powder from her close-fitting jacket. There was some money in it. The old woman said: In order to find my little egg, the family's big boss and the house were sold.
His mother spent a lot of money on medical treatment, and there were also donations from kind-hearted people. I have saved this much, and I will give it all to you. Central Committee, please take pity on me, an old woman.
The old woman was about to kneel down again, but Hualong hurriedly helped her up and advised her to keep the money.
Bao Zhan explained: Grandma, we won’t ask for your money. If you want to be a private detective, we will be your private detective for free.
Professor Liang said: The Spring Festival holiday of the special case team has been cancelled. Does anyone have any opinions?
Su Mei said: Well, I have been looked after by my grandma since I was a child. If I were lost, my grandma would definitely look for me.
Hualong said: It’s okay not to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Bao Zhan expressed his willingness to sacrifice his vacation to help the old woman find her grandson.
Bai Jingyu said: Well, you all defied me collectively. Should I be angry or proud of you?
Su Mei contacted the old woman’s local public security agency. According to the director of the Anti-Human Trafficking Office, in recent years, several local boys have disappeared, including the old woman’s grandson Dandan. The police have made a lot of efforts and have been searching, but to no avail.
Only the person who abducted Dandan was found to be a middle-aged woman. A passerby heard the woman say to Dandan: "How about I take you to buy some delicious food? I will take you to your mother later."
The director said: She speaks the dialect of Yangcheng, Guangdong, but Yangcheng is so big, where can you find such a child? Children may also be sold to poor and remote mountainous areas. Only by catching the traffickers can they be found.
If children are resold many times, their hope becomes even slimmer.
Su Mei asked the local police to fax over Dandan's photos and case file information. After everyone read it, they found that there were very few clues and it was extremely difficult. The only witness saw the trafficker's back and heard only one sentence.
Bai Jingyu said: The crime of abducting women and children is obviously organized into groups. It is difficult for one person to independently commit the crime of abduction. Usually, someone is responsible for abducting, someone is responsible for transferring, and someone is responsible for selling, forming a network. The method of investigation is also different.
Many times, the trafficker is caught and chased to the buyer's house. If the investigation is disconnected and the investigation cannot continue, the only option is to collect blood from children of unknown origin and compare them to find the biological parents, and to publish photos of abducted children.
and other information for the public to identify. Sometimes it takes several years to solve a case of child abduction and trafficking, traveling to many provinces and cities, which is time-consuming and laborious. Trafficking crimes often move across regions and commit crimes in large areas. There are many gang crimes, and funding and police resources are problems. Public security
The newspapers and periodicals affiliated with the ministry have a child-finding column, and every year we receive a large number of letters for submission, all from parents who have lost their children.
Bai Jingyu made a phone call and had someone send a stack of letters. The four members of the special case team read a few letters and couldn't read them anymore. Those letters were heart-breaking and moved people to tears. Here are two excerpts of the contents.
as follows:
Lele, today is the tenth day since you left us. My mother burst into tears and dared not close her eyes. From the day you left your parents, all that can be seen in my mind is your smile when you came back to face us! How much my mother longs for that exciting moment.
The moment has come. I don’t know how long you are going to punish your mother and torture her. Mom is holding your photo every day to atone for your sins! Mom is sorry for you, you have not fulfilled your responsibility! If mom can choose, I really want to stop my heartbeat
Mommy can't bear the pain of losing you! She almost can't bear it anymore, my dear baby.
…
Baby, my dad is old and I don’t know where you are. How have you been these past few years? I will continue to look for you.
When is your birthday? December 12, 1989. I named you Jiang Hui.
There is a little mole on the corner of your right eye
, there is a triangular red mole on your belly, and a scar the size of a fingernail on your forehead, which you knocked on the stove when you were a child. Your blood type is type B.
So many years have passed. Although you are no longer with your parents, you have grown up. Maybe you no longer remember your mother and me, but I still remember everything about you, as if it was yesterday. Dad has been thinking of you.
, been looking for you.
I will never forget that day on August 15, 1995. My father did not take good care of you. You were stolen by human traffickers when you were five years old. I really regret it. My father really regrets it. I should play with you and watch you as usual.
Playing at home may change the fate of our family.
When you were taken away by the traffickers, I vaguely heard you calling "Daddy". After so many years, I can't forget it.
You were five years old when you left your parents, and now you are almost twenty. You don’t know that your grandma had a heart attack and left us because she lost you. Your mother also remarried. We don’t blame her.
My mistake was irreparable. In the next two months, besides lying on the hospital bed, my father didn’t know what to do or where God wanted me to go.
Later, my father made up his mind, I must find you, no matter when, no matter where you are abducted and trafficked.
Over the years, even I can’t remember clearly the places my father has visited. I only remember that I searched city after city, posted notices everywhere, asked people everywhere, and bought news everywhere. Although, you are not with dad,
But I can feel that you are growing up day by day. As long as I have been to a place, I will go to the school there to see if you are there. However, these things have not brought me to you.
In fact, Dad also thought about giving up. You don't know, sometimes, when I find that there is a vast sea of people and no direction, I can only drink to temporarily anesthetize myself. Because Dad is really scared, my baby,
It’s just that dad really doesn’t know how many more years he can look for you.
My father is old and has very little money left. Although my family and friends have advised me not to look anymore, and I also know that some people call me crazy, looking for you is my only goal in the past, now and before I find you.
.
These letters strengthened the special case team's confidence in helping the old woman find her grandson. Everyone analyzed that the babies abducted by traffickers were mainly used for trafficking, and a small number of older children were organized to beg. Little Dandan was four years old when he was abducted.
He is over 10 years old, and the trafficker speaks the Yangcheng dialect. There is a high possibility that this child will be begging in Yangcheng. The special case team decided to send someone to send the old woman home, but the old woman refused to comply and insisted on going to Yangcheng with the special case team to find her grandson.
, the old woman said that she would go even if she wanted food. Even if she died outside, she would never go home until she found her grandson.
The special case team couldn't defeat her, so they had to take her to Yangcheng with them, so that the old lady could help with the identification.
On the plane, the stewardess was a little surprised to see this old lady. It was probably the first time they saw an old lady from the countryside flying. The stewardess asked the old lady what she wanted to drink. The old lady was holding a bulging woven bag and waved her hands in panic.
No. After a while, the meal started to be served. The old woman said she was not hungry, so the stewardess poured her a cup of hot water. The old woman made a surprising move. She took out the money from her arms, which was all fifty-cent and one yuan change. The stewardess poured her a cup of hot water.
She said that the meals on the plane were all free. The old woman was reluctant to eat them and put the meals in a woven bag. The stewardess noticed that there were a lot of potato chips in the old man’s woven bag. They were the kind of cheap bagged potato chips.
There are dozens of packages.
The old lady bought a lot of potato chips, which are her grandson's favorite snack.
The special case team and the old woman arrived in Yangcheng and took a bus to the city. After getting off the bus, Bao Zhan noticed an advertisement posted on a telephone pole on the side of the road. The content on it is excerpted as follows:
Transfer of disabled children
I have three disabled children:
1. Both legs are completely amputated, the transfer fee is 8,000 yuan;
2. Deformity of both arms, transfer fee is 6,000 yuan;
3. Deaf-mute and dementia, the transfer fee is 5,000 yuan.
They all have rich experience in begging, are obedient and honest, and will never run away. The use rights are now transferred. They can be sold in bundles or individually. If you buy one and two, you can get three for free. Because I have to go back to my hometown in an emergency, I reluctantly transfer.
