Chapter 427 Kidnapping (9)
May 20th.
At the Consulate General in Mandalay, Jiang Ningyue was watching the new drama "In the Name of People" in her room.
How wonderful it is that Myanmar is in dire straits, while the Chinese people are still watching new dramas.
The series didn't experience many setbacks, perhaps due to the pre-eminence of "Chinese Diplomacy." This novel, also written (and adapted) by Jiang Ningyue, was quickly adapted for the big screen, without much interference from either the radio and television authorities or the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Even if Jiang Ningyue is not in the country, this face must be given.
As summer approaches, this drama has been aired on CCTV and video websites.
Jiang Ningyue was currently video chatting with Gu Meng, watching a drama together.
Life at the Consulate General is so boring.
In the past, Jiang Ningyue’s task was to safeguard the interests of local Chinese and overseas Chinese, participate in ribbon-cutting activities of some Chinese companies and Chinese schools, and be invited to participate in local ceremonies in Mandalay.
But after the war broke out, these basically disappeared.
Especially after the fighting spread to Mandalay, there were obviously fewer people on the streets of Mandalay, and those who were able to do so fled to Yangon.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Ningyue paused the video and said, "Come in."
Zhao Jing opened the door and walked in. She leaned over to Jiang Ningyue and whispered, "Leader, Tong Anning, Executive Deputy Director of the Shanghai Public Security Department, called and wanted to speak with you."
"oh?"
Jiang Ningyue said to the video, "Mengmeng, wait a minute, I'll make a call."
After hanging up the video, Jiang Ningyue picked up the landline on the table and said, "Please answer the call."
Soon, a middle-aged man's voice came from the other side: "Is this Consul General Jiang?"
"Hello Director Tong, I'm Jiang Ningyue."
"Hello, Consul General Jiang. We recently received a report of a 35-year-old male citizen with Shanghai household registration who was kidnapped while working abroad. The perpetrators are demanding a ransom of 5 million yuan. The criminal gang is currently based in Muse, northern Myanmar. We've dispatched police to Rui City, Yunnan Province. I'd like to ask if you could contact the local military and offer some assistance."
"I see."
Jiang Ningyue said cheerfully, "Director Tong, don't worry. Muse is now under the control of the Northern Shan Army. I will have their military commander contact you immediately. If you need any cooperation, just communicate with him directly. Just say it's my permission."
Tong An Ning was stunned by these words, "Okay, okay, I'll give you a landline number now."
After hanging up the phone, Tong Anning looked at the surrounding police officers with a bewildered expression, "Is our Mandalay Consulate General's style in Myanmar so tough? Just let the military commander of a local warlord contact me."
A young police officer laughed and said, "Director, I saw online that the Northern Shan Army is the force supported by Director Jiang and is very obedient."
"Nonsense."
Tong Anning kicked him immediately after hearing this, "Don't say such nonsense outside."
"Oh." The young police officer knew he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut up.
At this time, the phone rang and a police officer immediately picked up the phone.
"Hello, Shanghai Public Security Bureau Office."
"I am Nalin, commander of the Northern Shan Army's Northern Military Region. I have been instructed by the Consul General to see your Director Tong."
When Tong An Ning heard this, the corners of his mouth turned down, and his expression made people around him want to laugh.
Tong Anning picked up the phone. "Hello, hello, I'm Tong Anning. This is the situation..."
After explaining the situation, Na Lin asked, "Do you have the coordinates?"
"some."
After Tong An Ning finished explaining the coordinates, he added, "You guys aren't going to act on your own, are you? For the safety of the hostages, you..."
“Beep, beep…”
"Hang up?"
Tong Anning was a little confused, "So positive?"
"You won't do bad things with good intentions, will you?"
After all, everyone can see the combat effectiveness of the local warlords, but no one expected that the other side would be so active and rush forward as soon as they heard a coordinate.
In Tong Anning's imagination, it was already good enough that the other party allowed them to go to this place and capture people.
There is no need for cooperation from the other party, let alone asking them to help catch it.
"Should we send our people to Muse immediately?"
"Contact us quickly."
About 30 minutes later, the office phone rang again.
"Tell Director Tong that the hostages have been rescued. Do you still want the robbers? If not, we will execute them."
Tong Anning was a little bit unbelievable and glanced at the policeman next to him. The policeman immediately asked:
"Did he really rescue him? I'm not questioning you, I'm just worried you might have recognized the wrong person."
Na Lin was silent for a few seconds. "How about you add me on WeChat? I can video call you?"
"Okay, okay."
After adding each other on WeChat, nine people were found tied up in a corner of an abandoned factory building with hoods on their heads.
There was also a man in his thirties lying on the ground, skinny and covered with bruises.
"Is it him?"
"Yes, yes."
The police officer suddenly became excited. "Commander, could you provide emergency medical treatment for our citizen? Don't worry, we will pay for all expenses."
"rest assured."
Na Lin said calmly, "I'll take him to the hospital in a moment."
"Thank you so much."
The problem that had troubled the Shanghai police was unexpectedly solved in this way.
"Where are the robbers?"
Na Lin pointed at the group of people tied up in the corner and asked, "If you don't want us to kill them now."
Tong Anning, as the Executive Deputy Director of the Public Security Department, had risen through the ranks from the grassroots and had witnessed many major events. He was somewhat unaccustomed to this aggressive style of action. "Mr. Lin, I respect your local laws. However, I think you could contact the media as a formality to publicize this. This would also deepen the friendship between the two countries and express the Northern Shan Army's attitude of cracking down on crime."
Na Lin nodded after hearing this and said, "That makes sense."
The man's family was overjoyed when they learned that their son had been rescued.
The man's father specially made two silk banners, both of which had the four big characters "People's Defender" written on them.
At Ruili Port, accompanied by many media outlets, the Shanghai man finally returned to his motherland.
As soon as he walked through the port, the moment he saw his family, the Shanghai man couldn't help but hug his parents and burst into tears.
The people in charge of the operation this time were warriors from the Kokang tribe, and they were filled with emotion after seeing this scene.
The deputy director in charge of the operation came over and expressed his gratitude to the soldiers.
At this time, the man's parents also brought a banner with the words "People's Defender" and gave it to several Kokang warriors.
The Kokang warriors were flattered and accepted the banner with surprise. Finally, everyone took a group photo together.
Meanwhile, local news media in Muse reported that police in Muse recently cracked a kidnapping case involving a 35-year-old Chinese male citizen. The Chinese citizen has returned home safely, and the nine robbers involved have been sentenced to death.
Domestic News Commentary Section:
[People's Defender (laughing and crying), the other party is Burmese, right?]
[It doesn't matter. We are all defenders of the people.]
Myanmar's laws are awesome! The robber was shot dead just after the hostages returned home.
[The Northern Shan Army is notoriously pro-China. They can kidnap Americans without any problem, but they will kill anyone who dares to kidnap Chinese.]
Although the situation in Myanmar is changing rapidly, the Kokang Autonomous Region is still good.
【Really good (picture)】
