The two went to the train station police station, found the emergency number, and called the police. When the police came out, a bag with money sticking out appeared in front of them.
Upon opening it, one finds a wad of cash, two handguns, a notebook, and a mobile phone.
The police officers looked at each other, their intuition telling them that this was the same person who had just called the police.
Doing good deeds anonymously makes you a really nice person.
One policeman was left to check the information about the mobile phone, while the rest of the policemen rushed to the hotel and dragged the nine people, who were still in a semi-conscious state, into custody.
Xia Baozhu was very fortunate that the train tickets were not registered under real names and there was no surveillance at that time, otherwise it would have been too easy for the police to find her and Sun Xingyan.
However, they did a good deed, eliminating a major scourge for the train station.
As for the others, they were all recorded in that notebook, so she didn't waste her time on them.
The two were standing in front of a window on the third floor of a tall building, watching the lively scene at the hotel next door.
"Have you done a lot of things like this with your wife?" Sun Xingyan asked with a grin, his arm around Xia Baozhu's waist.
"Not much." Xia Baozhu gave a shy, fake smile, which prompted Sun Xingyan to kiss her hard on the cheek.
In his opinion, Xia Baozhu's joking with him was particularly adorable.
"How many times?" Sun Xingyan leaned his head against Xia Baozhu's head.
"Similarly, once when I was taking a taxi in Mingcheng, the driver took me to a human trafficking den, and that's how I got rid of it."
"But it wasn't as troublesome as today because those people didn't see my face, so I didn't need to collect their information."
Xia Baozhu briefly explained the situation.
As for why she encountered so many such incidents, the reason is simple: a weak woman is seen as an easy target by many people.
If she goes out for a walk in the middle of the night, there is a greater than 60% chance that she will be followed, scammed, or abducted.
At this time, most people rarely go out in the middle of the night unless they have an emergency.
Those who like to go out in the middle of the night are the ones with bad intentions.
These people target single women, children, and wealthy individuals.
This time, it was because they were dressed a bit expensively that they attracted thieves.
Fortunately, Xia Baozhu was good at fighting, which gave her the opportunity to bring these people to justice.
But when she encountered powerful figures like Guan Xingfeng and Chen Shanlou who knew her background, she could only grit her teeth and accept it.
If Sun Xingyan himself encountered such a thing, he would just accept being robbed, learn from the experience, and stay out of trouble when traveling, because he might just be falling into a honey trap.
Seeing that the police had taken those people away, the two of them went to the station chatting and laughing, and bought new tickets to Haicheng.
The journey from Fengcheng to Haicheng takes about five hours. There were no sleeper berths available, so I only bought two hard seats, which weren't even adjacent to each other.
The train was at 5 p.m. The two of them strolled around the train station, caught a few small fish, threw them to the patrolling police, and then made their escape while laughing and joking.
Sun Xingyan found it very exciting. He didn't concern himself with such trivial matters when he was out in the world; at most, he would remind others to keep an eye on their belongings.
But following Xia Baozhu, he felt his back became stronger and his image became more radiant and imposing.
He could now appreciate the joy of those chivalrous couples in the story.
The only pity is that his strength is too weak, making him the one who drags the team down.
However, this kind of life is not the norm. They still have to return to the path of earning money to support their families and striving to realize their dreams.
Sun Xingyan was very confident on this point.
Everyone has their own strengths; he doesn't have to focus on his weaknesses every day.
Once on the train, Sun Xingyan gave ten yuan to the person sitting next to Xia Baozhu so they could switch seats and sit together again.
During the five-hour journey, Sun Xingyan and Xia Baozhu occasionally read books and chatted, and they didn't find it boring.
Fortunately, it was winter, and the smell in the carriage wasn't as strong as in summer, otherwise the two of them would have felt uncomfortable.
We arrived in Haicheng at 10:10 p.m. Many places were still brightly lit, and there were still many people outside. The number of police officers patrolling the streets was similar to that in Beijing.
At the beginning of this year, the State issued the "Opinions on Issues Concerning the Reform of Custody and Repatriation Work".
Non-local citizens who reside in the area for more than three days are required to obtain a "Temporary Residence Permit"; otherwise, they will be considered to be illegally residing and will be detained and repatriated.
The beginning of this year here refers to the Gregorian calendar, which is the beginning of 1992.
Shenzhen has been implementing this policy since 1984.
Starting this year, people will need to apply for a temporary residence permit every year when they go to work in different cities.
Short stays are fine, and most places aren't that strict.
Of course, it also depends on the location. In cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou, where there are a lot of migrant workers, they not only conduct checks during the day, but also often carry out surprise raids in the middle of the night, which is really annoying.
The situation is similar in the east of Haicheng now, due to the large influx of migrant workers, the temporary residence permits of outsiders are being checked very strictly.
While strict enforcement may cause headaches and financial burdens for many, it can, to some extent, curb crime.
There were many unsolved cases in the 1990s, some of which were committed by itinerant criminals.
Xia Baozhu and Sun Xingyan watched as a patrolman chased a poorly dressed man into the green belt.
"Judging from the voice, they're checking temporary residence permits," Sun Xingyan said.
"Hmm, it seems that factories here have to issue temporary residence permits to all out-of-town workers."
Xia Baozhu plans to buy the shops in whichever city she opens in the future, otherwise it will be too troublesome for her to apply for temporary residence permits every time she goes to a new place.
After all, this temporary residence permit system will last for more than a decade.
"We'll sort out the housing situation in Haicheng in the next few days."
Sun Xingyan came to Haicheng mainly to hang out with Xia Baozhu and, incidentally, to check on the stock he had bought.
He planned to carefully select and buy a house after the New Year, but now it seems he needs to buy it earlier.
"Then let's go to Dongpu and take a look. Houses there are cheaper now, so we can buy a few more."
Xia Baozhu believes that their timing is perfect, as locals in Haicheng do not like to buy houses in Dongpu now and for a long time to come.
The commute is long and inconvenient, and the living facilities and infrastructure are inadequate.
Therefore, there is a saying among the people of Haicheng: "I'd rather have a bed in Xipu than a house in Dongpu."
This shows that they generally dislike Dongpu.
"I'll listen to my wife." Sun Xingyan agreed without much thought.
Dongpu will take time to develop, and even in ten years, the prices here will not change much. They can only temporarily list the properties for rent through real estate agencies.
Sun Xingyan wouldn't care about these rental fees; he bought the property simply to make his wife happy.
He doesn't care when prices will rise; buying a house is like storing gold to him—just keep storing it.
We agreed to go to the securities brokerage first, then to Dongpu to look at apartments. The two of us found a nice hotel and checked in.
