Moreover, since the victims were all missing in Mexico,
Even if the police wanted to get to the bottom of it and dig deeper, they were simply not enough.
Because it is different from most other countries.
As Homicide is common and populated by a large number of armed criminal groups.
In this place, the number of members of the criminal group is even larger,
Then the number of troops and police in the whole country,
And they are almost all armed to the teeth, and the government and the police have no way to take them on.
Not only that, criminal groups have publicly kidnapped and assassinated politicians countless times in the country,
And have long infiltrated the military and political system,
So in Mexico, criminal groups are at the top of the food chain.
Whether it is the police and military in their own country,
Or the police and FBI in the United States and Canada, they cannot get into their eyes.
Because no one can control them. Unless it is a larger criminal group.
Therefore, these Americans disappeared in Mexico, and it was difficult for the American police to investigate deeply, so they basically became unsolved cases in the end.
When Joseph reported this information to Charlie, Charlie couldn’t help muttering to himself:
“Strange, if they trick people into going to Mexico, and then let them return to the United States from Mexico with contraband,
“
“It is understandable, but after they deceived people to Mexico,”
“They disappeared directly, which is a bit strange,”
“What value can they create for them by deceiving these people into Mexico?”
Joseph said, “Mr. Wade I didn’t understand it for a while, and I found a characteristic.”
“All these people who disappeared have a family situation very similar to Abigail’s son.”
“They are the kind of people whose individuals and families are about to go bankrupt,”
“Or have already gone bankrupt, and these people who are deceived to go there are all poor.”
“Well…” Charlie said with a solemn expression: “Mexico is already underdeveloped,”
“And the labor cost in that kind of place should be very low.”
“They trick people into working as free labor, which seems to be more than the gain.”
“Yes.” Joseph also agreed: “However you look at the logic of this,”
“It is difficult to be self-consistent, and it is a gang of mercenaries,
“But they chose a group of victims who have no profit.”
Charlie said lightly, “If you want to know what tricks they are playing, the best way is to go to Mexico in person.”
He then asked Joseph: “Abigail’s son, where is he going to Mexico?”
Joseph said: “Tijuana, Mexico, this city is a border city in Mexico, very close to Los Angeles.”
Charlie smiled and said. : “His plane is from the day after tomorrow, right?”
“Yes.” Joseph said, “The morning flight the day after tomorrow.”
Charlie looked at the time and said, “Then it’s more than 30 hours away from takeoff now.”
“Now, the plane should be open for check-in.”
“Check if Abigail’s son has checked in and if the seat next to him has been selected by other people?”
“If not, buy me a ticket and choose that seat for me.”
Joseph asked in astonishment: “Mr. Wade, what are you doing?”
Charlie smiled and said, “If you don’t enter the tiger’s den, you won’t get the tiger’s son.”
“Since you don’t understand why they want to deceive people to Mexico,”
“Then, of course, we have to go deep into the tiger’s den and find out.”
After speaking, Charlie said again: “Help me forge a set of identity documents,”
“Just use all the identity information of that Abigail’s son, and then replace the photos with mine,”
“Then send someone to wait at the airport in Tijuana.”
“When I get off the plane with that Abigail’s son, you pretend to be Georgina’s person,”
“Pick him up first, and then I pretend to be him and go with the people,”
“Who are there for him and touch the connector over there.”
Joseph said subconsciously: “Mr. Wade if you want to find out,”
“Why don’t you ask your subordinates to go to Mexico on your behalf!”
Charlie said lightly: “No, You also have your mission.”
Joseph hurriedly said: “Please instruct Mr. Wade!”
Charlie said: “You immediately send a hundred elite soldiers from Cataclysmic Front to Mexico,”
“And be ready to respond at any time there, I think Georgina is inseparable from the criminal group there,”
“And she is likely to flee to Mexico, in this case, prepare in advance and take her and her backers away!”
Hearing Charlie’s order, Joseph said without hesitation:
“Mr. Wade, rest assured, your subordinates will immediately dispatch elite soldiers to Mexico,”
“And then as long as Mr. Wade gave an order we’ll be ready for action!”
“Okay!” Charlie said with full majesty, “Tell the soldiers below after this is done,”
“I will help them. Remember the first achievement! When the celebration banquet will be held in Mexico,”
“I will make all of them go a step further!”
Charlie had the intention to continue to improve the overall strength of the Cataclysmic Front,
And now he has raised a lot of funds, and the next thing to do is to improve the combat effectiveness of the Cataclysmic Front’s soldiers.
Right now, the best solution is to help them improve their cultivation.
For most soldiers, it is not necessary to use a whole Blood Rescue Pill,
Even a third or a quarter of the Pill can make their strength even further.
Or add some Cultivation Pill, the powerful spiritual energy will help them open up more meridians.
Therefore, he intends to use medicinal herbs to make some wines that can improve the cultivation of warriors,
After this operation. At that time, he can’t help celebrating their achievements and making them even stronger.
When Joseph heard this, he also guessed Charlie’s intentions.
He was very excited, and said repeatedly, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade, your subordinates will do their best!”
Charlie hummed and asked again, “By the way, How is my mother-in-law in the prison?”
Joseph immediately said: “For your mother-in-law, we have already done what you ordered,”
“And with our female soldiers there, it is impossible for anyone to dare to offend her.”
Charlie sighed and said lightly: “Now I don’t worry about her being bullied by others,”
“I am worried about whether she will bully others recklessly,”
“If she bullies those who have provoked her It doesn’t matter,”
“I’m afraid that she will use the backing in there to be a bad blessing to others.”
With that said, he instructed: “You have someone to pay attention to her, don’t let her go too far.”
“Okay!” Joseph said respectfully: “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade, I will arrange everything in the prison.”
“That’s good.” Charlie smiled and said, “Then let’s meet in Mexico the day after tomorrow.”
Joseph said with some concern: “Mr. Wade, your subordinate is worried about something…”
Charlie said: “You say it.”
Joseph said respectfully: “Mr. Wade, this time you are planning to go to Mexico and pretend to be Abigail’s son,”
“But the subordinates think that this may not work, in case the contact person,”
“On the Mexican side has already obtained his information in advance,”
“I am afraid that they can see at a glance that your identity is fake,”
“In that case, the follow-up plan we will not be able to continue…”
Charlie smiled and said: “I can’t be sure about this right now, so let’s just take a bet.”
“You can bet that their matchmaker only knows Abigail’s son’s name and doesn’t know his appearance,”
“Or can bet that their matchmaker is more face-blind to Asians.”
“He can’t see any clues, let me get through…”
Having said that, Charlie put away his smile and said seriously:
“It doesn’t matter if they really see through me at a glance,”
“I have other ways to make sure the plan can be carried out smoothly.”
For Charlie, it was not the first time going deep behind enemy lines.
When he went to Hamid’s base in Syria alone, as an East Asian face,
Almost anyone who saw him in that place would be extremely alert.
However, Charlie still relied on strong psychological cues to enter and exit freely in that heavily guarded base.
Therefore, he felt that when he got off the plane in Mexico,
If the docking person found out that he was a fake,
He would give him a psychological suggestion to make him believe it subconsciously.
After all, Charlie’s real purpose was to use the docking person to bring himself to the other side’s base camp in Mexico.
Only when he got to the other party’s base camp could he find out who Georgina’s backer in Mexico was,
And what tricks and deeds she was up to in Mexico.
…
In the meantime.
Bedford Hills Correctional Institution.
After Elaine enjoyed the whole body massage of seven or eight people, she felt so comfortable.
It’s just that the domineering Chloe was miserable.
According to Elaine’s order, she began massaging the feet of everyone in the cell.
Until the prison lights turned off, only four or five people were treated by her.
Seeing that she was about to go to sleep, Elaine said to Chloe in a cold voice:
“You will massage until tomorrow morning. If you dare to be lazy, I will kill you!”
Chloe nodded while crying, and choked: “I know… I will not be lazy…”
Elaine snorted, then pointed to her wet bed, and said coldly,
“This is all your Masterpiece, you will sleep in this bed in the future, and I will sleep in yours.”
Chloe didn’t dare to say more, and quickly said: “Okay, Ms. Ma, I will follow your orders…”
Elaine thought the bed was wet and felt a little unhappy.
Pointing at the former Chloe’s women, he said coldly,
“You people, pour water on all your beds tonight before sleeping,
And sleep every night from now on. Pour two pots of water before, and then give me three days of sleep!”
After speaking, she looked at Chloe again and said coldly,
“You will also give me a well-watered bed from tomorrow,”
“You will sleep for three days, while Chole will give you ten days of sleep!”
The crowd trembled in fright.
Although the weather is hot now, but sleeping in a soaked bed, shouldn’t it make people uncomfortable.
Moreover, they have to sleep for three days in a row.
If they sleep during these three days, they will get rheumatism all over their body.
Chloe even collapsed. Three days for others, ten days for her.
What is the concept of ten days, and then she will not be paralyzed in bed?
Thinking of this, she quickly begged for mercy with snot and tears:
“Ms. Ma, I’m already so miserable, please let me go…”
“If you let me sleep for another ten days in that bed,”
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to get out of bed in the future!”
Elaine exaggeratedly snorted and said disdainfully: “Oh! How come you are here,”
“Yet you are afraid that you won’t be able to get out of bed?”
“Why did you do that to me then? Weren’t you afraid that I won’t be able to get out of bed?”
Then, Elaine said coldly: “Don’t do what you don’t want to do to others!”
“It’s all your own idea, so for me, it’s just a matter of treating people in their own way,”
“And at the end of the day, thank you for your own creativity, otherwise,”
“If you let me think about it for a week, I can’t think of such a way of torturing people.”
When Chloe heard this, she burst into tears.
Elaine had a face, and said coldly: “Cry? I’ll add more time to cry!”
“Fifteen days if ten days are not enough, thirty days if fifteen days are not enough! I see how long you can cry!”
Chloe hearing this, quickly suppressed the crying, reached out her hand to wipe away the tears, and choked:
“I…I don’t cry anymore…”
Elaine laughed and asked her, “Chloe, You know what it’s like to be bullied this time, right?”
Chloe’s eyes were full of tears, and she nodded her head aggrievedly: “I know…”
Elaine smiled and said: “Remember this advice from your grandmother, whoever insults people, people will always humiliate them!”
This night, Chloe can only go back and forth between the bathroom and every single bed.
According to Elaine’s order, she must do a foot massage for at least half an hour for every prisoner.
This means not just a sleepless night tonight, even if it’s daytime tomorrow,
It doesn’t seem like she will be able to relax for a moment.
As for her former minions, they were forced to toss and turn on the wet beds.
They didn’t dare to lie in one position for too long,
Because their bodies simply couldn’t be in contact with the wet bed for a long time,
Because after a while, the body in contact with the bed would become cold, biting, and painful.
Therefore, the only thing they can do is to keep rolling on the bed,
Like a sausage on a sausage rack, constantly rotating and baking.
Surprisingly, Elaine, who finally turned over to be the master, didn’t even fall asleep.
Early the next morning.
She, who had not slept all night, seemed more energetic than anyone in the cell.
When she got up from the bed, Chloe was still trying her best to massage the inmates’ feet.
At this time, she had already realized what Elaine felt,
When she was so tired that her arms were about to break.
And that night, she finally understood what it was like to be bullied and bullied wantonly.
This night, she was so tired that she was about to collapse countless times,
And subconsciously she had to stop the movements of her hands.
But when she thought that Elaine was a person who would retaliate,
And she could retaliate tenfold or a hundredfold,
She subconsciously didn’t dare to have any more lazy thoughts.
Elaine stretched and walked to Chloe’s side, staring at her for a while without saying a word.
Seeing Elaine approaching, Chloe was shocked and scared,
But after looking at her from the corner of her eye,
She hurriedly lowered her head and continued massaging the inmates’ feet with some unease.
It’s just that Chloe’s arms are really sore and swollen now,
And every time she exerts a force, the pain is piercing,
And the speed and strength are unconsciously much slower.
At this time, Elaine suddenly raised her foot and kicked her to the ground with one foot.
Then Chole heard the scolding in a cold voice: “Damn, move faster! What are you dawdling about here?”
Chloe cried and said: “My… my arms and hands really don’t have much strength…”
Elaine said contemptuously: “You deserve this! You forced your grandma to massage your feet.”
“What, why didn’t you think about your grandmother who is in her fifties,”
“Where did the strength in her arms and hands come from?”
After speaking, Elaine became angrier, pointed at her, and cursed:
“To a 5lut like you, I have to be worse and crueler than you b!tch,”
“Otherwise you won’t be able to learn well in your fcuking life!”
Chloe really regretted it, but it was too late now.
Throughout the day, she spent almost all of the rest of the time massaging the inmates’ feet,
Except to go out to eat and have fresh air.
On this day, Elaine lived a refreshing day.
Except for the three female warriors in Front, almost everyone else surrounded Elaine and continued to show their hospitality.
For the first time, Elaine had a good impression of the prison.
This condescending and respected feeling made her very satisfied in her heart.
So, all day, she didn’t even call her family.
Originally, she planned to make at least three calls a day to urge her son-in-law, to rescue her quickly.
But today, she felt that there was no need to go out too early.
It’s much more refreshing than going out to experience the feeling of being in a hurry.
…
The next morning.
Stella drove by himself and sent Charlie to New York Airport.
Knowing that he was going to Mexico, Stella was somewhat worried.
She originally wanted to go with him, but Charlie did not agree.
For him, it is much better to have no one around to help him.
In the case of someone helping, he has to take care of that other person himself,
Which is not better than being alone.
What’s more, when he goes to Mexico by himself this time,
He planned to go deep into the tiger’s den. By the way, he would pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger,
And taking Stella with him, he would definitely be not comfortable.
Stella didn’t know what Charlie was going to do when he goes to Mexico at first.
Hearing that Charlie was going to replace a potential victim in the other party’s death trap,
She knew that if she followed, in addition to dragging him, she will not have any positive effect.
So, she could only give up.
The car stopped at the entrance of the airport, and Charlie said to Stella:
“You have a special status, so don’t get out of the car.”
Stella hurriedly said, “Then Mr. Wade, you must pay attention to safety!”
Charlie tapped lightly and nodded, and after saying goodbye to her,
He pushed the door and got out of the car.
Then he took out a small suitcase from the trunk and walked into the airport without looking back.
This suitcase contains some new daily clothes that he bought yesterday.
He didn’t know what was waiting for him in Mexico,
But this time he was going to pretend to be a person who was unprepared for danger,
And he was going away, so naturally, he had to carry some personal belongings.
After coming to the counter to exchange the boarding pass,
Charlie went through the security check alone and arrived at the designated boarding gate early.
Because he bought economy class this time,
He could only find a vacant seat at the boarding gate and wait for the target to appear while waiting for boarding.
Ten minutes later, a middle-aged Asian man in his 40s hurried over.
Charlie recognized the other party at a glance, he was Abigail’s son, Abren Lang.
Like Charlie, Abren carried a 20-inch suitcase with him,
But he had one more bulging shoulder bag than Charlie.
Abren, who is in his 40s, looks a little old, not only has his hair gray,
But also has a lot more wrinkles on his face than his peers.
From the state of the whole person, it can be seen that he should be at the lowest point in his life.
At this point, there were only five minutes left before boarding,
And there were already some impatient passengers lining up at the boarding gate.
Abren also dragged his suitcases and lined up at the back of the queue.
Seeing this, Charlie immediately stood up, pulled his suitcase and lined up behind Abren.
Afterwards, he pretended to be curious and asked him in Chinese, “Are you from China?”
“No.” Abren shook his head, and said to Charlie very seriously:
“I am a Chinese-American and have been living here for many years.”
Charlie frowned slightly, it seemed that Abren was not friendly,
So he asked curiously, “Did you immigrate here for work?”
Abren tidied up the collar of his shirt, with a bit of pride on his face and said,
“I’m a public student, but because of my outstanding grades,”
“They gave me a good opportunity to get a green card directly, so I chose to stay in the United States.”
Charlie nodded.
In fact, Charlie has read all of Abren’s information,
And the reason for asking again is that he wants to take the opportunity to get acquainted with him,
And by the way, he also took the opportunity to learn about this person’s character in the chat.
Charlie saw that he was very concerned about nationality on the one hand,
And on the other hand, he talked about his status as a public student back then and was very proud,
And he couldn’t help but feel a little disgusted in his heart.
In fact, he doesn’t like this kind of person very much.
There are indeed many graduates of famous universities in China, as well as those who study abroad at public expense, and finally, choose to stay overseas.
It is said that there are tens of thousands of Tsinghua graduates who choose to stay in Silicon Valley in the United States.
Of course, the matter of going and staying is all voluntary,
But Abren’s situation is very different from other people.
After all, he is a public student who came to study abroad at the expense of the country.
So he should have returned after he had achieved something,
But he chose to stay. This kind of behavior is not moral in terms of character,
So it is difficult for Charlie to have a good impression of him.
Therefore, after a few words, he felt he didn’t like him.
However, he did not get too emotional, but deliberately complimented the other party:
“The gold content of public students is said to be very high, you are really amazing!”
Hearing Charlie’s praise, Abren’s face was full of pride.
But his attitude towards Charlie was a lot more friendly, and he said with a smile:
“In our time, the requirements for public students were really high, and there were only a few places in a school.”
Charlie nodded, Curiously asked: “By the way, what are you going to do in Mexico?”
“Are you going to go on a business trip?”
Abren’s expression froze for a moment, and then he said unnaturally: “I… . I am going to work…”
Abren mentioned his work, and his expression was obviously a little unnatural.
To be precise, he, who was originally proud of his status as a public student,
Suddenly felt a little inferior when he mentioned going to work in Mexico.
Charlie was keenly aware of his changes.
Combined with the fact that he had been changing jobs for many years in a row,
And his income was getting lower and lower, and then he was simply unemployed for more than a year,
He could guess that he was definitely forced to go to Mexico this time. A helpless choice of life.
So he sighed lightly and said, “Looking at your appearance, brother,”
“It must be a helpless move to go to work in Mexico.”
“I am actually the same as you. I don’t want to go to Mexico but I have to.”
Abren asked him curiously: “What are you going to do in Mexico?”
Charlie said casually, “I don’t know what to do when I go there,”
“But my visa in the United States is about to expire.”
“I originally wanted to hack it first, but recently the immigration bureau has investigated illegal activities.”
“The immigration investigation is tight, and one of my uncles was deported back some time ago,”
“So I thought about leaving the United States before the visa expires.”
Abren asked in confusion: “Can’t make it in the United States, return to China,”
“Although the domestic environment is not as good as that of the United States, it is much better than that of Mexico.”
Charlie said a little embarrassedly: “To be honest, I came out because I couldn’t stay in the country any longer.”
“I owe a lot of money in China, and if I go back now, maybe I will be arrested.”
When Abren heard this, he smiled and said, “Did you borrow money to run away?”
“Ah.. ….” Charlie sneered, and said embarrassingly, “I borrowed a bit too much,”
“Plus the management is not good, the deficit is a bit big, and I can’t pay it back,”
“So I can only come out first to avoid the limelight.”
Charlie asked curiously: “Brother since you were a public student back then, you must be a high-end talent.”
“Why do you still go to a place like Mexico? Compared with the United States, it is one day at a time.”
Abren said with a somewhat desolate expression: “No, I’m getting older, in a place like the United States,”
“Before the age of 35 to 40, if you haven’t achieved financial freedom,”
“Then there is a high probability that you will be eliminated by the system,”
“Even if you have work experience. What can you do with richness?”
“Young people’s salary is one-fourth or even one-fifth of your salary, and they dare to work hard.”
“One person is not as good as you, and two people together are better than you, right?”
After speaking, Abren sighed again: “If you are an IT person like us,”
“There will always be new technologies coming out,”
“And us the older employees are not capable of learning new technologies than the young people are.”
Charlie nodded, pretending to be curious, and asked, “Since my brother works in IT,”
“I am afraid that you will not develop even if you go to a place like Mexico. Is it true? Changed industry?”
Abren sighed, waved his hand, and said, “Oh, forget it, it’s nothing more than a meal, not to mention it.”
Charlie saw that he didn’t want to say it, so he didn’t ask any more questions for a while.
The flight had already started boarding, and the two of them passed through the gate,
One after the other and walked towards the cabin.
Abren chose a seat by the window for himself. The seat number was 39A.
He walked in front of Charlie. After arriving at the seat,
He stopped and stuffed his suitcase and shoulder bag into the luggage compartment before crowding into his seat.
And Charlie took the boarding pass and pretended to check the seat number,
And couldn’t help but mutter: “39B, where is this 39B…”
After speaking, he suddenly raised his head and glanced at Abren, pretending to be surprised:
“Oh, brother, fate! My seat is next to yours!”
“Really?” Abren was also obviously a little surprised.
He was a compatriot. When he was lining up to board the plane just now,
They were one after the other. He didn’t expect that after getting on the plane,
The seats of the two were actually next to each other as well.
That’s kind of a fate.
Therefore, Abren rarely showed a sincere smile, and said quickly:
“Oh, this is really fate! Come, come, sit down!”
Charlie nodded, and after putting the suitcase away, he sat next to Abren and said with a smile,
“It seems that some will be chatting on this trip.”
Abren also let go of his original defense against Charlie, and asked him curiously:
“By the way, brother, when you go to Mexico this time, do you have any acquaintances there?”
Charlie smiled casually: “There is no acquaintance, I just go around and see if there is anything suitable.”
“What can I do, if I get some work, I’ll do it, if don’t then will go back to China.”
Abren asked curiously, “Aren’t you afraid that the creditor will find you when you go back?”
Charlie waved his hand: “China has gone too far, where is the loess?”
“Find a new place to settle down first, maybe there is still a chance to make a comeback,”
“When the debt is repaid, maybe I can return home.”
After speaking, he looked at Abren and asked again: “Yes Brother,”
“What exactly are you doing in Mexico? Is there any way to introduce it to your brother?”
“Me?” Abren sighed and laughed at himself:
“How can I have anyway, as long as there was a way,”
“Bro, I won’t leave my wife and children and go to that ghost place in Mexico.”
After speaking, Abren lowered his voice and said to Charlie,
“I tell you what I mean, this place where I am going, It’s an extrajudicial place.”
“Why did the president spend so much money building a wall on the border before?”
“Didn’t he just want to control the illegal immigration and drug smuggling over there?”
‘Who with their sane minds will come here?”
Charlie nodded and asked curiously, “Brother, you have been talking about this for a long time,”
“And you have not said what you are going to do.”
Abren no longer covered it up, and said seriously,
“I really don’t. To tell the truth, brother, I am going to become a seafarer.”
“Seafarer?” Charlie asked curiously, “Are you sailing on a ship?”
“Yes.” Abren nodded and said, “It was a friend of my mother who introduced it to me,”
“It is said that the salary and treatment are quite good,”
“And you can get tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, but it is a little hard work.”
Charlie frowned slightly, wondering what was Georgina’s purpose behind using the guise of a sailor to deceive Abren was.
But at least one thing is certain, a ruthless person like Georgina can never just trick Abren into becoming a seaman.
Charlie kept his face and said, “Brother, you are a top student anyway.”
“Going to sea to be a crew member is a bit inferior. Instead, to be honest,”
“You might as well return to China to develop. The speed of domestic development is so fast,”
“You will definitely be able to find a good job there.”
Abren was startled, then sighed: “It’s not that I didn’t think about it,”
“But sometimes I can’t keep my face down. My relatives, friends, and former classmates,”
“All know that I immigrated to the United States early, and I also took my old mother.”
“People back home are not only envious but admired our growth here.”
“If I go back to China to develop at this time, then I don’t know what they will say behind my back…”
Charlie smiled slightly when he heard this, indifferently Said:
“Brother, don’t think that I’m younger than you, but it’s not a big deal,”
“I see it better than you, you should only care about the wife, children, and parents,”
“Make sure they have eaten and are clothed, now if you want to support your family,”
“Why should you care about these matters? Can you save your face by going to Mexico as a crew member?”
Abren said with an embarrassed expression: “To tell you the truth, brother, I have always felt guilty for so many years,”
“I always missed home, it made me what I am but it was also that I couldn’t stand the temptation to come out of there,”
“And I failed the trust. If I could become a big man, like a Fortune 500 entrepreneur or executive,”
“I would also like to carry money and clothes to my hometown, and donate some money to my old alma mater,”
“And set up a scholarship fund to help those students…”
Speaking of which, Abren’s eyes reddened and he said sadly:
“The key is that I am not up to my expectations!”
“Now that I am a failure, I don’t want to go back and be a burden there.”
Going to see Abren’s face full of shame, Charlie’s impression of him has changed a little.
Originally thought he was just an egoist who was greedy for glory and wealth,
But looking at it now, he still had some conscience in his heart.
And Abren himself has not said these heartfelt words to anyone over the years.
He didn’t really think that he had a great fate with Charlie,
And he could let him speak the deepest hidden words in his heart.
He just kept these words in his heart for too long,
And he never spits it out, as he didn’t find a suitable person to talk to.
So Charlie comforted him and said: “The place of birth is always tolerant to its children.”
“In China, after all so many people like you have gone back, and are doing good.”
He continued, “As many people move to other countries for higher education and study, but not all of them return.”
After a pause, Charlie said again: “It’s like transporting a piece of ice in a foam box.”
“No matter how tightly you wrap the ice, it will definitely melt away part of it during transportation,”
“But that doesn’t matter. For those who transport ice, as long as there is ice left,”
“When they reach their destination, then these efforts are of practical significance.”
Abren was slightly startled, then nodded slightly, and said in his mouth:
“Actually, we were attracted by the colorful world here at that time.”
“We always felt that the stage here is bigger and we could better play ourselves.”
“In fact, I didn’t really forget the motherland, but I was full of energy.”
“If it’s good, I will go back to serve the motherland a hundred times, a thousand times,”
“Times takes away our energies and arrogance gradually goes away too, there are so many like me who will just disappear…”
Speaking of which, Abren said with tears in his eyes:
“I really want to serve my homeland! But now I can’t even feed my own mother.”
“She is in her 70s and still has to work in a restaurant to make money.”
‘To subsidize the family, I have read books for so many years, learned so many techniques,”
“And wrote so many codes, but in the end, I have to support my family by being a seafarer,”
“How can I have the face to return?”
Charlie asked him: “Do you understand? This seafarer’s job?”
Abren shook his head and said, “I only know the general workflow,”
“But I don’t know the specific working methods. It’s probably just doing chores on the ship.”
“The most important thing is to work hard, and I can’t go home for a year and a half.”
Charlie asked again: “Then do you think you are suitable to be a seaman?”
Abren shook his head again: “To be honest, I am a communication technology man.”
“Yes, you have to ask me how to locate the freighter, how to avoid obstacles,”
“And how to communicate with the land through satellite. I can tell you one, two, or three ways,”
“But you made me a seaman, I am really confused, I even have a bit of idea of the basics of a ship.”
“I don’t even know the structure, and I don’t even know if I will get seasick after getting on the boat.”
After speaking, Abren said with emotion: “But there is no way, for the sake of life.”
Charlie and Abren chatted for a long time, and he understood more about Abren’s past.
Abren used to be a gifted boy.
When others just got high school textbooks, he had already been admitted to a key university.
While others were preparing for the college entrance examination, he had already gone abroad as a public student.
Those young people at that time, before coming to the United States, had unwilling hearts.
At that time, it coincided with the golden age of the rapid development of Silicon Valley,
And the Internet changing the world. Abren saw that like him, Zhang Chaoyang,
Who also studied in the United States, returned to China, and founded Sohu.
He also saw Li Yanhong, who also studied in the United States, and returned to Congress to founded Baidu.
He also saw many seniors and juniors who stayed in the United States for development.
In the process of the explosive development of the Internet, one by one they became rich.
Some became presidents of listed companies, worth over 100 million US dollars,
While others became business partners.
Some rang the bell on the Nasdaq and be worth tens of millions of dollars overnight.
He also saw many who studied finance. After graduation, they entered Wall Street investment banks.
After graduation, they received hundreds of thousands or even millions of high salaries.
What’s even more awesome is that they all hold tens of millions or even over a venture capital fund of 100 million dollars,
Sometimes at a meal, they decide on an investment project of more than millions of dollars.
Afterward, he also saw many outstanding men who, with the capital of American venture capital,
Returned to China to invest in a large number of star companies that will become famous in China in the future,
Not only helping those companies become the world’s top,
But also helping their own investment banks have made huge profits,
And they have also gained fame and fortune one by one,
And some are even regarded as the best investors, publishing books and biography, and become famous.
What he saw and heard deeply stimulated Abren.
He didn’t want to go back to work as a state-owned enterprise employee or a civil servant after finishing his studies in the United States step by step.
He also wanted to be the same as those people. own companies, or invest in a group of great companies.
However, in any industry, the channel for top talents is very narrow.
Over the years, millions of foreign students who are at the elite level have not even a few hundred who can truly become the best.
Because in any era, a top talent must have the right time and place,
And it is definitely not a person who works hard and will be able to climb to the top.
This is the case with Abren.
He stayed in the United States with a dream, but reality kept waving the big stick at him.
In the first few years of studying here, he still had ideals in his heart,
But it didn’t take long for him to start running around for a living and gradually became ordinary.
As Abren and Charlie talked more and more, and as he confided more and more,
His whole person, don’t know when it started, became full of tears.
Seeing that the plane was about to land, Charlie handed him a tissue and said,
“Brother, Mexico is not for you. When the plane lands, buy a ticket and go back.”
Abren shook his head and said, “What am I going to do? My wife, my child,”
“They are waiting for me to support them, the car has been sold,”
“And the house will have to be sold if it goes on like this.”
He said with a firm face: “I can earn tens of thousands of dollars a year as a seaman,”
“And I can solve the family’s problems. There is an economic problem, so I must grit my teeth and persevere.”
Seeing his determined expression, Charlie suddenly felt that his previous plan seemed to need some adjustments.
He originally planned to let the people of Cataclysmic Front take away Abren ahead of time,
Find a place to lock him up, and then let him go free after he has investigated the whole thing,
And uprooted Georgina and the people behind her.
At that time, where he wanted to go and what he wants to do, it has nothing to do with him.
After all, he may have saved his life, which can be regarded as his lucky blessing.
But now Charlie suddenly found that facing this middle-aged man who was almost desperate for life,
And trying to struggle in a desperate situation, doing so only broke the little hope he had for life right now.
When he returns to the United States after a false alarm,
His old mother would continue to work in the restaurant,
While his wife and children will have no life. Even their sheltered house might be taken away by the bank.
Therefore, instead of this, it is better to take Abren with him.
Whatever awaits him ahead, let him experience it for himself.
Perhaps, after all the dust settles, this experience will enable this confused and pitiful middle-aged man to find his way back.
Charlie, who decided to take Abren with him, immediately thought about the next rhetoric,
And two possible corresponding plans for himself.
He planned to ask him to join him as a seaman first.
If Abren did not agree, he would let the people from the Cataclysmic Front follow him,
All the way after he got off the plane to find the other party’s lair.
If Abren agrees, then he will see whether Geogrina’s contact person agrees.
If the contact person agrees, then he can follow Abren smoothly and enter the opponent’s zone.
But if the other party does not agree, then the first plan is used,
And Abren is used as bait and followed quietly.
So he pretended to be improvised and said to Abren: “Brother,”
“I have nothing to do here anyway, can you introduce me as well, and I can become a seaman with you.”
Abren also felt that this man had nothing to do. The young man was quite able to chat,
So he said cheerfully: “Okay, but what I said doesn’t count.”
“After I got off the plane and see the person who is there to pick me up,”
“I will ask if they are recruiting people. , if they are, you can come with you.”
“Okay.” Charlie smiled and said, “Thank you, brother.”
Abren waved his hand: “You’re welcome, by the way, Abren Lang.”
Soon, the plane landed smoothly. During the taxiing phase,
Charlie canceled the flight mode of the mobile phone and sent Joseph a message with only these words:
The plan has changed, I am going to play it by the ear.
Afterward, when the plane stopped, he and Abren got off with their luggage.
When lining up to go to the customs, Charlie asked Abren:
“Brother, will someone come to pick you up later, or do you have to go by yourself?”
“Someone will pick me up.” Abren said, “My mother’s friend told me before that,”
“This place is about 100 kilometers away from the port of Ensenada.
“I don’t know the place well, and I could have had a hard time,”
“So she asked the other side and the shipping company sent a car to pick me up from the airport.”
After speaking, Abren added: “After we meet him later,”
“I will ask him if they are still recruiting people.”
“If they do, we will join him together.”
“Okay.” Charlie said with a smile: “I’ll ask you to say more good things at that moment, brother.”
Abren hurriedly said, “You’re welcome, don’t be polite, but it’s just an effort,”
“And I myself I don’t have much ability,”
“It’s not up to me to decide whether it works or not, it depends on others.”
Afterward, the two went through customs with their respective passports.
Since neither of them had checked luggage,
They went straight to the airport exit as soon as they got out of customs.
At this time, many people at the exit of the airport picked up people coming out of the plane with name cards,
Most of them were written in English or Spanish, so Chinese name cards are very easy to find here.
Soon, Abren saw a young Chinese man holding a sign with his name on it,
So he quickly said to Charlie, “It’s there, let’s go!”
After speaking, the two trotted over.
When he came to the other party, Abren waved at the other party and smiled:
“Hello, I am Abren Lang!”
The young man saw Abren, cautiously took out his mobile phone from his pocket,
Opened a photo and checked it up and down. After confirming that it was Abren,
He realized that there was another young Chinese man beside him.
He pointed at Charlie and asked him cautiously, “Who is this person? Is he with you?”
