◎Chapter 26: Stop the sedan chair and complain

On January 20, 2009, during the Great Cold Season, the north wind whistled and dripped 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 with a stick and knelt down.

The driver braked suddenly and the car stopped suddenly.

The old lady had a ragged face, ragged clothes, and her gray hair was blown by the cold wind, blocking a wrinkled face full of vicissitudes. The white-haired old man suddenly knelt in the middle of the road, with a stick and a dirty bedding roll on the ground. Her body was hunched over, but she held a piece of white paper high above her head.

There are two words written on it: 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 lady walked a few steps and wanted to hold the driver's legs. She said: Save me, my little grandson is lost.

The driver hurriedly stepped back, pointed at the old man and said: Stop, there are the deputy minister of the Ministry of Public Security in the car, and four police officers from the special case team. You are so brave.

The old man rushed to the ground, kowtowed to the car, and shouted: Master Qingtian, help!

The driver ignored the old man, turned around and drove the car for a distance, then moved forward and drove by the old man.

The old man touched the ground with his head and couldn't get up. It was like a stubborn stone.

Bai Jingyu led the special case team to attend the Spring Festival Gala in the public security system when she encountered an old woman stopping the car and kneeling. The four of the special case team noticed that the old woman's pants were worn out on the knees, revealing the earthen cloth cotton pants. This shows that she had kneeled many times. The bedding was covered in dust and was wrapped in a piece of gray plastic cloth, which shows that the old man sleeps in the streets in the cold wind every night.

In addition to morality and law, there is also a supreme ruling, that is, human conscience.

The car drove far away and stopped again. Hualong and Baozhang got out of the car and went back to help the old man up.

The old man comes from the Yimeng Mountains and speaks the dialect of southwestern Shandong. She talks for a long time before she can tell her miserable experience. Her little grandson Dandan was abducted by human traffickers. It has been a year since there was no news. Dandan's grandfather passed away due to guilt, Dandan's mother was bedridden. Dandan's father endured the grief and supported the broken home alone. The old lady is already in her seventies and walks out of the house with a stick. Over the past year, she has gone through hardships and has been to many places. She has been looking for her little grandson and has never thought of giving up. If she can't find it, she doesn't plan to 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 decided.

Professor Liang asked: How do you have dinner this year?

The old lady said: Just begging for food, there are still many good people, and I have saved up all the money.

Su Mei took out her snacks, a box of chocolate, a few bags of dried fruit and jerky, and placed them in front of the old lady.

The old lady said: Daughter, such a good person is so good. I have no teeth and can't bite it. Just pour some hot soup and water for me.

Su Mei felt sad, so she brewed a cup of coffee and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady took out a broken teapot from the bed roll, poured the coffee in, held it in her hands and said: It was bitter and sweet.

Hualong said: Auntie, it’s almost the Chinese New Year now, why don’t we take you home? As long as your local police file a case, they will help you find a grandson.

The old lady said: If they don’t look for it, I’ll find the Central Committee. I’m from Yimeng Mountain. I’ve treated the People’s Liberation Army, baked pancakes, and put on shoes. That year, a big leader was riding a horse. He told me that if there were any difficulties in the future, I would find the Central Committee. I’ve been gritting my teeth and survived. Now, my grandson has been lost and taken away by someone. My family can’t survive anymore, so I’ve come to the Central Committee.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, the dedication of the people of Yimengshan was well-known throughout the country. In an era when the fighting situation was extremely harsh and the material conditions were extremely harsh, thousands of Yimeng women made great sacrifices. The founding of New China was launched by ordinary people using wheelbarrows, and the milk of the Yimeng sisters and the Yimeng Hongshao nursed the children of the soldiers.

Professor Liang said to Bai Jingyu:

This is an old man from an old revolutionary base. The promise made by him back then seems to be fulfilled now.

Bai Jingyu said: This does not comply with the procedures. In today's society ruled by law, there are also things like stopping sedan chairs and shouting for justice. Once this wind opens, I don't know how many people will kneel at the door. The special case team is not a private detective, but is only responsible for solving major homicides that have occurred across the country and finding children trafficked. It's better to let the local police be responsible.

The old lady asked: What is a private detective?

Bao Zhan replied: It’s just to give money, help you find someone, and investigate.

The old lady untied her cotton jacket and took out a plastic bag filled with washing powder from her close-fitting jacket, which contained some money. The old lady said: In order to find my little egg, the big bull at home sold and the house. She spent a lot of money to treat his mother. There were also kind-hearted people who saved so much, so I gave it to you. Central, please pity me, the old lady.

The old lady was about to kneel down again, Hualong hurriedly helped her up and advised her to collect the money.

Bao Zhan explained: Grandma, we won’t ask for your money. If you want to be a private detective, you will be your free private detective.

Professor Liang said: Does anyone have any objection to the special case team’s Spring Festival holiday be cancelled?

Su Mei said: Oh, I have been a big shot since I was a child. If I lose it, my grandma will definitely look for me too.

Hualong said: It’s better not to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Bao Zhan expressed his willingness to sacrifice his holiday to help the old lady find her grandson.

Bai Jingyu said: Well, you actually disobeyed me collectively. Should I feel angry or proud of you?

Su Mei contacted the old lady's local public security organ. According to the director of the anti-trafficking office, in recent years, several boys have disappeared in the local area, including the old lady's grandson Dandan. The police have made a lot of efforts and have been searching for it, but there is no result. Only the middle-aged woman who abducted Dandan was found. A passerby heard the woman say to Dandan: "Is it good to take you to buy delicious food? I'll take you to find your mother later."

The director said: She is speaking the dialect in Yangcheng, Guangdong, but Yangcheng is so big, where can I find such a child? Children may be sold to poor and remote mountainous areas. Only by catching human traffickers can we find the abducted children. If they are resold many times, the hope will be even more slim.

Su Mei asked the local police to fax Dandan's photos and case files. After reading it, everyone found that there were very few clues and it was extremely difficult. The only witness saw the back of the human trafficker and only heard a sentence.

Bai Jingyu introduced that the crime of trafficking of women and children is obviously grouped. It is difficult for a person to independently commit trafficking. Usually, some people are responsible for abduction, some are responsible for transit, and some are responsible for selling, forming a network. There are not many ways to investigate. Trafficking traffickers follow the line and chase them to the buyer's home. If the investigation is disconnected and cannot be investigated, you can only rely on tracing children with unknown origin to compare blood collection, find biological parents, and publishing photos and other information for the public to identify. Some cases of trafficking of children have been investigated for several years and have been traveling to many provinces and cities, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Trafficking crimes often roam across regions and commit crimes, with many gang crimes, and funding and police force are both problems. The newspapers and magazines under the Ministry of Public Security have a sub-search column, which receives a large number of letters and submissions every year, and are letters written by parents who have lost their children.

Bai Jingyu called and sent a stack of letters. After reading a few letters from the special case team, they could no longer read them. The letters were heartbroken and moved to tears. Two letters were excerpted, with the following content:

Lele, today is the tenth day of your departure from us. Mom is crying and dare not close her eyes. From the day you left your parents, your smiles are all in your mind. Mom is so eager for that exciting moment to come. I don’t know when you want to punish Mom to torture Mom. Mom holds your photos every day and is atoneing her sins! Mom is sorry for you, not fulfilling her responsibilities! If Mom can choose, I really want my heart to stop beating. Mom can’t stand the pain of losing you! She is about to be unable to hold on, my dear baby.

...

Baby, Dad is old and I don’t know where you are. I will continue to look for you if you have been doing well over the years.

What is your birthday? On December 12, 1989, I named you Jiang Hui.

There is a little black mole on the corner of your right eye

There is a triangular red mole on the belly and a fingernail-sized scar on the forehead. It was knocked on the stove when you were a child. Your blood type is B.

So many years have passed, although you are not by 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 missing you and looking for you.

I will never forget that on August 15, 1995, my father did not look down on you. You were stolen by human traffickers at the age of five. I really regret it. Dad really regrets that I should play with you. Watching you play at your doorstep as usual may change the fate of our family.

When you were taken away by human traffickers, I heard you call me "Dad". I can't forget it for so many years.

When I left my parents, you were five years old, and now you are almost twenty years old. You don’t know that your grandmother left us because she lost you, had a heart attack, and she left us. Your mother also remarried. We don’t blame her. It’s my fault that cannot be compensated. In the next two months, my father was not sure what he could do except lying on the hospital bed, and he didn’t know where God asked me to go.

Later, my father made up his mind that I must find you, no matter when or where you were abducted and trafficked.

Over the years, even I can't remember where my father has walked. I only remember that I searched one city after another, posted notices everywhere, asked people everywhere, and bought news everywhere. Although you are not by my father's side, I can feel that you are growing up day by day. As long as I have been to the 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, my father had thought of giving up. You don’t know, sometimes, when I find that the sea of ​​people is vast and there is no direction, I can only drink to temporarily anesthetize myself. Because my father is really scared, my baby, but my father really doesn’t know how many years he can find you.

My father is old and there is not much money left. Although my relatives and friends advise me not to look for it anymore, I also know that some people call me crazy, looking for you is my only goal in the past, present and before I find you.

These letters further strengthened the confidence of the special case team to help the old woman find her grandson. Everyone analyzed that the babies abducted by the human traffickers were mainly used for sale, and a small number of older children were organized to beg. Xiao Dandan was over four years old when she was abducted. The human traffickers were in the dialect of Yangcheng. The child was very likely to beg in Yangcheng. The special case team decided to send someone to send the old woman home. The old woman insisted on not following her and insisted on following the special case team to find her grandson. The old woman said that she would go even if she begged for food. Even if she died outside, she would never go home without finding her grandson.

The special case team could not resist her, so they had to take her to Yangcheng with them, and the old lady could also help identify her.

While on the plane, the flight attendant was a little surprised to see the old lady. It was probably the first time they saw an old lady in rural areas taking a plane. The flight attendant asked the old lady what to drink. The old lady held a bulging woven bag and waved her hands in panic and said no. After a while, the meal started to be delivered. The old lady said she was not hungry, so the flight attendant poured her a cup of hot water. The old lady made an amazing move and took out the money from her arms, which was 50 cents per yuan. The flight attendant said that the catering on the plane was free. The old lady was reluctant to eat it and put the meal into the woven bag. The flight attendant noticed that the old man's woven bag contained a lot of potato chips, which were very cheap bags of potato chips, with about dozens of packs.

The old lady bought a lot of potato chips, which were her favorite snacks for her grandson.

The special case team and the old lady arrived in Yangcheng and took a bus to the city. After getting off the bus, Bao Zhan noticed an advertisement posted on the telephone pole on the side of the road. The content above is excerpted as follows:

Transfer of disabled children

I have three disabled children:

1. The legs are cut off, and the transfer fee is 8,000 yuan;

2. Deformity of both arms, transfer fee of 6,000 yuan;

3. Deaf and dumbness are dementia, and the transfer fee is 5,000 yuan.

They all have rich experience in begging, are obedient and honest, and never escape. They now transfer the right to use, can be sold in bundled or transferred alone. If you buy one and two, you can get three. Because I have to go back to my hometown with urgent matters, I have to endure the pain of transferring it, If You Are the One.
