Chapter 466 The Capture Operation: What's with Bringing Two Birds?

Around 6 a.m., Liu Baoquan received instructions from his department, which approved the joint operation.

Liu Baoquan called Lu Chunze to his office and had a private talk with him, giving him several instructions.

The first point is to take into account the feelings of Myanmar's side.

Since it involves cross-border operations, we should prioritize the other party's actions and cooperate with them in the arrest.

“You know the reality on the other side; their government is willing to cooperate with us to combat drug trafficking.”

"But the situation below is complicated, and the relationships are intertwined. There may be situations where people are willing but unable to do something. You should instruct your subordinates to pay attention to their methods."

"If the relationship is strained, it will be difficult to resolve in the future."

After all, it's another country; they can't just do whatever they want.

It's definitely not good to be bossy and interfere.

A bitter smile appeared on Lu Chunze's lips as he said, "Director Liu, I understand."

He had an exceptionally good understanding of the situation, the capabilities and efficiency of those people over there.

Liu Baoquan followed up by saying, "So make contingency plans, and don't act recklessly if things don't go well."

"Of course, there are some principles that must be upheld. We don't want to cause trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble either. You need to make that clear to your subordinates."

Times have changed, and things are different now compared to a decade or so ago.

Secondly, of course, is safety.

"Especially Shen Xin's safety. He's a talented individual, and we must protect him."

He gave me a look.

Lu Chunze nodded slightly, understanding in his heart.

After a moment's thought, Liu Baoquan added, "And then there's Fan Liping. We need to learn to discern his words and not completely trust them."

Liu Baoquan admired Fan Liping's original aspirations, but in his position, he had to remain vigilant about everything.

Lu Chunze understood this as well. After a moment's thought, he said, "Director Liu, it's not too late to back out now."

His meaning was that we shouldn't send it to Myanmar.

Song Zhi didn't really care.

They chose to do this because they were considering giving him a way out.

Since there are doubts, it's better to stay within the country.

Liu Baoquan's gaze was deep, and he shook his head slightly.

Lu Chunze didn't ask any more questions, and he could roughly guess what the higher-ups were thinking.

After talking for a while, Lu Chunze left to make arrangements for the operation.

This operation was led by Guan Baofeng, the head of the Narcotics Control Detachment of the Dehong Municipal Public Security Bureau, who led a team to Kuang, Myanmar.

Around 8 a.m., Shen Xin received the call and immediately rushed to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

When I arrived, they were making preparations in earnest.

The task force consisted of nine people.

Guan Baofeng, Wang Feng, and a member of the anti-drug squad.

Then Shen Xin saw Qian Feng.

He took two soldiers with him and went along.

Li Niu happened to be among them.

That leaves Shen Xin's side.

Shen Xin was thinking of not letting Ding Yuwei go, but she was adamant that she could help Shen Xin with his work.

Jiang Wengang also wanted to go.

His mission from beginning to end has been to protect Shen Xin's safety. Now that he's already gone abroad, it's impossible for him not to go.

There were nine people in total, which means that each side had a representative.

At the Municipal Bureau, Shen Xin saw Fan Liping, who was about to be transferred.

Pan Wenhai was saying his final goodbye to him.

“Liping, I’ve said everything I need to say. Don’t let hatred cloud your judgment. You’re still young, and you still have a choice.”

"This time, let's cooperate well, arrest the person, settle the matter, and then sincerely repent. Don't worry, I'll come to see you as soon as this is over."

"Uncle is waiting for you to come out."

Pan Wenhai gripped Fan Liping's arm, earnestly explaining.

"Uncle, I understand." Fan Liping nodded and said, "Take good care of yourself. Look, you have gray hair. And my aunt, Pan Rui, please give her my regards."

Pan Wenhai nodded repeatedly, opened his arms, and pulled Fan Liping into his embrace.

They held me very tightly, and it took them a long time to let go.

He led Fan Liping outside.

"Captain Wang, this is troublesome." Pan Wenhai handed the man over to Wang Feng.

Their eyes met, and Wang Feng nodded knowingly before turning to see Fan Liping into the car.

Tang Youkun also pulled Shen Xin along, repeatedly conveying Cui Jiang's meaning.

"Be careful, be careful, be very careful."

Tang Youkun said "be careful" three times, then glanced at Jiang Wengang and said, "Wengang, Shen Xin is inexperienced, so be careful." Jiang Wengang didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly.

Because it was a targeted reconnaissance mission, Shen Xin did not bring Yifan and the others along.

I brought Erlong and Siji with me.

Of the seven birds, these two are the most honest and obedient.

Two of them alternate, that's enough.

As for Teddy and the others, they were left to be cared for by Pan Wenhai.

The group of several vehicles immediately headed to Zhangfeng Port to enter Myanmar from there.

Myanmar has already arranged for people to conduct the handover at the border.

After entering the country, we will travel to Lope Township, Nong Kham District, Sawa State.

In Myanmar, states correspond to provinces, districts to cities, and towns to counties.

Luopei Town is equivalent to a county in China.

But it's very remote, in a corner of Sawa, right next to the border, and very poor.

According to Fan Liping, Angdu is now hiding in a village called Sangjia, located near the border's primeval forest.

Around 11 a.m., the group arrived at Zhangfeng Port.

Wearing handcuffs, a baseball cap, and with his wrists covered by clothing, Fan Liping was escorted by Li Niu and another person. The group entered Myanmar directly through a special channel.

I went on a business trip, and it turned out I went abroad.

However, it is also necessary to bring Nan Ji's child back.

It wasn't until Shen Xin arrived at the Municipal Public Security Bureau that he learned from Wang Feng that Nan Ji's child had actually been taken away by Fan Liping.

Now the baby elephant is right next to Angdu.

They acquired the Myanmar eagle in May, but Aung Du has been keeping it and hasn't been in a hurry to send it away.

His plan was to give the baby elephant away as a gift on July 15th, during the traditional Lighting Festival in Myanmar.

If the capture goes smoothly, they might also be able to bring the baby elephant back with them.

She had promised Nan Ji that she would help her find her child.

When entering Myanmar from the other side, Shen Xin sensed the low efficiency of Myanmar's customs authorities.

Song Zhi arranged for a special person to handle the handover at the port.

As a result, the port authorities claimed that the relevant documents had not been sent over and were incomplete, so they refused to release the person.

This is somewhat unbelievable in itself.

The police system and the immigration system should work closely together.

That's good, it feels like the two systems are the same.

I asked around and found out that the paperwork had been faxed, but we hadn't received it.

I went to the office and asked around before I confirmed that someone had seen it and just tossed it aside.

Okay, the paperwork is done, so we should be able to let you through.

But that won't work. They said Erlong and Sixi don't have the proper paperwork or quarantine documents, so they can't be brought into the country without permission.

Guan Baofeng, who was leading the team, was so angry that he laughed.

The key to this operation is these two birds, and you're blocking their entry.

They argued that the paperwork didn't mention these two birds, which was against the rules.

The person who came to make the handover got into an argument with the people at the border.

After arguing for a long time, we still had to complete the formalities in the end.

The port authorities are afraid of taking responsibility.

From this perspective, the port's approach is actually not wrong.

The problem lies in Song Zhi's lack of diligence in handling affairs.

Of course, considering the situation of casually dropping faxes at the border, it's pretty much the same.

Complete the necessary paperwork and send a fax.

It took more than an hour of trouble before they were allowed to pass.

For the rest of the time, Shen Xin and his group could only wait idly in the room.

Shen Xin didn't fully understand all the circumstances, such as the 20-hour time limit.

But Wang Feng knew this, and paced anxiously back and forth in the room, looking very agitated.

Fan Liping was also there, occasionally stealing glances at the two birds in the cage.

Shen Xin noticed his gaze.

To be honest, Shen Xin was also interested in this guy.

His methods and the path he took may not be suitable, but Shen Xin truly admires the person who chose to use this method.

I think he's a real man, the kind who's quick to anger and seeks revenge.

Noticing Shen Xin's gaze, Fan Liping smiled, winked at the birdcage, and asked, "Comrade, what's this bird for?"

This is a capture operation, not a vacation. What's the point of bringing two birds along?
