“What’s your name? Where are you from?”

In a hotel hall, Liu Xiao, along with a photographer and an assistant, interviewed hundreds of people in front of him one by one.

“My name is Sun Yongkang, and I am from Bashu.” The young man in front of Liu Xiao replied slowly.

This is a young man who looks to be in his early twenties. His face is bruised and bruised. Even when he spoke, one of his front teeth fell out and leaked.

“Why did you come to northern Myanmar?” Liu Xiao continued to ask.

“I…” Sun Yongkang hesitated for a while and said slowly: “I saw a man showing off his wealth on the Internet, saying that he made a lot of money by doing live broadcasts and selling goods in northern Myanmar, and then he opened some apprentices The quota allowed me to take several apprentices for free, so I signed up, and then he mailed me a ticket to Jingdong.”

“After I got off the plane in Jingdong, I was kidnapped by a group of people. After I woke up, I was kept in a small dark room by the “320 Office”. They beat me and asked me to call home to ask for ransom. My family is poor. If they couldn’t pay the ransom, they let me engage in telecom fraud.”

“I’m not very good at lying. If my performance is not good, they won’t give me food and even beat me.” As he said that, Sun Yongkang lifted up his shirt, revealing the scars all over his body.

Even Liu Xiao, who had seen corpses in war-torn areas abroad, took a breath when he saw these shocking injuries. He couldn’t help but picture a young man being locked up in a small dark room and being tortured and beaten in his mind. picture.

“My surname is Huang, and I’m from the north.” A young man with one missing ear bared his teeth and sat opposite Liu Xiao, with one hand hidden in his long sleeve.

He asked uneasily: “Can you mosaic it for me? I don’t want my family to see it…”

Liu Xiao nodded and said: “Don’t worry, we will mosaic you all, and your names and where you come from will also be silenced.”

Hearing this promise, the young man named Huang breathed a sigh of relief. After hesitating for a while, he raised his hand hidden in his sleeve, revealing his right hand with only four fingers.

Seeing the scars all over the mutilated palm, Liu Xiao became more solemn: “Tell me your story.”

“I was deceived by a fellow countryman. He made a video call with me. I saw that he was surrounded by many beauties and drove a luxury car, so I begged him to help me make a fortune. Then he said that he would invite me to travel and have fun, and then he would make a fortune. I arrived at Daluo Town, crossed the border, and was picked up by him.”

“He took me to play in the new area of Mongla for a few days. He said that there are opportunities to make money everywhere here. He also took me to the casino and gave me a lot of chips so that I could gamble with confidence.”

“I just tried my luck. At first, I won some money, and then I started losing until I lost all my chips.”

“The people at the casino asked me to pay, and I said, didn’t I lose my chips?”

“They said those chips only represented the amount. I lost a total of three million chips and had to pay three million dragon dollars.”

“I had no money, so they locked me up and asked me to call my family to pay for gambling. I gave the friend’s name, and they laughed and said that he was just a casino boy who drove a luxury car and had beautiful women. It belongs to the big boss.”

“I just realized that I was deceived by my friend.”

“Later, they called my family to ask for money. They thought it was a scam and refused to pay. Then they took a video of cutting off my fingers and sent it to my family.”

“My family scraped together everything. I heard that they sold all the houses they owned and raised more than 500,000 yuan. They called me, but they still said they hadn’t paid off the debt, and they made a video of cutting off my ears and sent it to me. .”

“But my family really had no money, so they asked me to engage in phone fraud and Internet fraud. If I couldn’t achieve my performance, I wouldn’t be given food. There were also punishments. The punishment was to beat people with whips and prick my fingernails with bamboo sticks. .”

As the interview progressed, Liu Xiao saw victims one by one.

Most of them had injuries on their bodies, some more seriously like Sun Yongkang and the man named Huang just now, who were injured and disabled.

The lighter ones also have scars all over the body.

According to what they said, there were some people who were beaten to death without resisting and were buried directly, or those who refused to die were buried alive.

A very small number of people will be let go. It is said that after the Long Kingdom police intervened, they made calls demanding ransom through the electronic fraud group and negotiated with the electronic fraud group. If they were victims who paid some ransom, they might be let go. Walk.

But more are left behind.

“Have you ever thought of a way to save yourself?” Liu Xiao asked curiously.

“I’ve thought about it, but the other side not only has security guards, but also soldiers with guns. It is said that they are militia members of the Mongla Army.” A Chinese who was rescued said: “The park where we are imprisoned also has fences, and some fences are even electrified. , and the parks where we were detained were far away from the city, surrounded by virgin forests, and it was impossible to get out without someone to guide us.”

“Sometimes when we wake up in the morning, we will find that someone, or two or three people, are missing, and then the leaders will tell us that someone tried to escape yesterday, was caught, and was beaten to death. We don’t know who it was. It’s not true, but most people don’t dare to run away because they really dare to shoot and kill 0. ”

As the interview progressed, Liu Xiao got a glimpse of a corner of this hell on earth through the descriptions of the rescued Chinese.

After comforting them, Liu Xiao returned to his residence with the interview materials.

With a heavy heart, I watched the interview video materials over and over again, sorted them out, and then wrote something down in my notebook.

At this time, Zhang Shaoqian came back from attending the welcome party.

“Have you seen the rescued Chinese?” Zhang Shaoqian glanced at the interview screen on Liu Xiao’s laptop with a hint of alcohol.

“Yes, I saw it.” Liu Xiao said dullly.

Zhang Shaoqian pulled a chair from the side, sat on it, and asked: “Are you curious why, while we are conducting private business cooperation with us, our compatriots are being mistreated like this! Beaten! Even brutally killed!”

Zhang Shaoqian’s words were also what Liu Xiao wanted to ask.

He looked up at Zhang Shaoqian.

The other party sighed and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket. There were two cigarettes there. He handed one to Liu Xiao and lit one himself.

After exhaling a puff of smoke, Zhang Shaoqian said slowly: “On the surface, we have friendly exchanges, business cooperation, and even tourism development. We pass the customs through normal channels. The Chinese in Longguo who come here, whether for tourism or business, should be careful not to leave the city. , basically nothing will happen.”

“Most of the Chinese who were rescued took the initiative to contact the criminals with the idea of getting rich, and tried every means to cross the border, and then were deceived, kidnapped, and detained!”

“Those electronic fraud parks are far away from urban areas. In some primitive forests in the ravines, barbed wire fences with a voltage of 2.5 are set up. The security guards stationed are also equipped with firearms. Once trapped, there is no way to communicate with the outside world.”

“We have never given up on any Chinese in Long Country. The police have been actively rescuing them. The border line in Yunnan Province is 4,000 kilometers long. Barbed wire fences have been pulled up and cameras have been set up. The staff at the border ports also monitor every entry and exit. The Chinese are reminding them to be careful of the dangers and to be wary of high-paying jobs and the so-called ways to make you rich.”

“We conducted door-to-door publicity in the border villages and told them that if they encounter suspicious people who want to cross the border, they should be discouraged immediately! Call the police immediately!”

“But even so, there are still people who think that northern Myanmar can get rich and make money, so they are thinking of various ways to cross the border!”

Finally, Zhang Shaoqian said seriously: “I can assure you that the border soldiers, border police, and border staff have never failed the motherland! They have never failed the people!”
