Chapter 731 All Roads Lead To
Zhang Yang was sitting by the window, her eyes confused and lifeless. The coffee cup in her hand was forgotten on the table. The cooling drink seemed to echo her state of mind.
At this moment, Zhang Yang no longer had the resolute journalistic demeanor.
The reporter who dares to speak the most in Dongzhou and the reporter who can distinguish right from wrong under the camera are all in vain.
In front of the murderer who really holds the power, he is nothing.
Sneers and sarcasm were the last bits of dignity she had left for herself, but this dignity she had saved so hard was worthless in the eyes of others.
Zhang Yang, who lowered his head and said nothing, said nothing more, but for the second time in the same day, he felt a little lonely.
At this time, I remembered the conversation I had with Chen Shu at the Japanese food store some time ago, and my righteous words when I asked for help for the people, and I suddenly felt that I was very ridiculous and naive.
In this world, justice can only be served with blood and passion.
After all, I thought of things too simply.
While reminiscing, Zhang Yang suddenly remembered something. He quickly picked up the phone she had thrown on the ground and looked through it quickly, and saw that familiar figure in the popular video.
Zhang Yang was a little stunned at first, but then he figured out the cause and effect of the incident, and his expression became weird. He wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. After enduring it for a few seconds, he finally burst into laughter.
"It's a donation of hundreds of thousands, but you can think of such a damaging way." Zhang Yang suddenly became happy, his peach blossom eyes turned into crescent moons, he threw himself on the big bed, and murmured, "But it's all my fault." The scoldings and beatings on me are nothing to blame. You are also a cruel person."
After laughing, Zhang Yang's mental state improved a lot and he decided not to avoid it deliberately. At the same time, he also had new ideas in his mind.
She took out her mobile phone and contacted Chen Shu, and told him from beginning to end that Lin Yu, the person she was asking for help, was trapped in the KK Park, and Li Xia's plan to take hostages in exchange for one, hoping that from Chen Shu, the police officer useful information from his mouth.
Chen Shu had no better solution for Lin Yu who was already trapped in the park. However, after hearing about Li Xia, he nervously asked Zhang Yang to send him the video of Li Xia's brother being beaten via WeChat. .
After a moment, a deep voice came from the other side.
"Yangyang, although the call you received was a video call, it is very likely that the real-time video you thought was actually tampered with by fraudsters through technical means."
"Tampering? Why did they tamper with the video? It's not necessary?"
"According to Li Xia, he paid compensation once, but instead of letting him go, he sold him to the next family?"
"Yes, that's the case."
"You must be prepared to lose both your people and money. Well, I just discovered that in the video, Li Xia's brother was completely unable to say specific words or correct answers to questions as Li Xia asked. He would only keep begging for mercy and saying "The windmill talk"
"Is this?" Zhang Yang was a little nervous for no reason.
After a pause, Chen Shu took a deep breath and said word by word: "The video you see is most likely a pre-recorded video. It's hard to say what the person actually looks like."
This is actually euphemistic enough. In essence, as a front-line policeman with extremely rich experience in handling cases, Chen Shu is equivalent to issuing a death notice to Li Xia's younger brother.
Zhang Yang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Chen Shu continued to persuade: "Yangyang, it's the same sentence. In fact, I don't think that with the current large-scale anti-fraud propaganda across the country, someone can really be 'cheated' to go to Burma. Now people in the past are from I knew from the beginning what kind of work I had done in the past, and this group of people were just lucky, thinking that they could escape unscathed after going there to make money."
Listening to Chen Shu's nagging, Zhang Yang did not refute. Just as Li Xia said before, his brother went there 100% of his own free will.
On the phone, Chen Shu continued to talk about the cruel reality: "This kind of person is actually useless in all senses. It is recommended to give up the rescue plan, otherwise it will bring down the whole family. The compensation of 300,000 yuan is The other party deliberately chose a slightly lower amount. Because of this amount, normal people can afford to give it a try, but if they don’t let them go after giving the money, they basically can’t get it back.
"Sending money will not make those people stop torturing the piglets. They will only intensify and continue to extort money, because they know that you can't help your loved ones suffering, and there is a high probability that they will send you money. They will not be honest with you at all. The rules are just profit and how much money can be squeezed out of the piggy in hand.
"You know, after you pay the money and continue to be resold, the person becomes a bottomless pit. The family has to keep paying to redeem the person, resell the person to redeem, and then pay to redeem the person. If you get deeper into it, you have borrowed money. Relatives and friends have to be hurt. Just cry for a while, isn’t there a dear brother here? Time will heal everything, and everyone must take responsibility for their own choices."
Later, according to Zhang Yang's previous temper, he would definitely refute things, such as cold-blooded animals, useless policemen, selfishness, etc. However, after seeing Chen Shu humiliating himself to save his seriously ill mother and daughter on Douyin, she also Realized my problem.
Chen Shuchun has a sharp mouth but a soft heart. Think about the situation in advance, use the most unpleasant words as a foreshadowing, and prepare both parties for the worst before starting to take practical actions to solve the problem.
And she only has the courage to speak her mind, just like what Mr. Cao said.
"If you have the ability, go to Mianbei and find someone by yourself!"
Afterwards, Zhang Yang called Li Xia and informed him of Chen Shu's analysis. In short, his brother might have met with an accident. Then he advised him that since he was already dead, he should not do the stupid thing of taking hostages. The living still had to live.
The other side was silent for a long time, and then replied.
"You have to try it. The 300,000 yuan saved not a useless brother, but the friendship between me, the brother, and my brother."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yang did not hesitate and immediately began to pack his luggage, preparing to go to KM City, Yunnan Province the next day, and then go to the border.
On the other side, something happened that was both reasonable and unexpected.
Li Xia believed the judgment of Zhang Yang's police friend, so he gave up the plan of taking hostages in Anxi for one-for-one exchange, and decided to follow Zhang Yang to Myanmar.
"Even if he dies, I will take him back to my hometown."
This was Li Xia's reply after being rejected by Zhang Yang, which made people reluctant to continue to refuse.
After learning that Officer Chen Shuchen was also at the destination of this stop, photographer Xiao Zhao naturally chose to follow him all the way, no, to protect him all the way, and by the way, to persuade this big sister with a very stubborn temper.
It is better not to touch things that should not be provoked.
Why bother?
