Chapter 269: Turbulent Times
During his time in the hospital, Qi Tongwei's health gradually recovered, but his mood became increasingly heavy.
He didn't know where Chen Yang was now or whether he was safe.
He didn't know what to do next.
Although the police were dissatisfied with Qi Tongwei's behavior, they could not sit idly by.
They began to investigate Chen Yang's whereabouts, and also placed Qi Tongwei under closer surveillance.
Qi Tongwei knew that his current situation was very embarrassing, but there was nothing he could do.
He could only wait for the results of the police's investigation and hope that they could find Chen Yang as soon as possible.
However, as soon as Qi Tongwei finished speaking, the local Myanmar border police became suspicious of his behavior.
“You said you came to save your ex-girlfriend, humph, I think you have ulterior motives.
The Myanmar border has no diplomatic relations with your country. The domestic police force cannot pass through at all, and it is impossible even if they want to.
You are here alone, you must have some ulterior motive."
Qi Tongwei's heart tightened. He didn't expect to be questioned like this.
"I really just came here to save Chen Yang. She was deceived by a telecom fraud and was brought here. I can't just ignore her."
"Who knows whether what you said is true or not? Maybe you are an accomplice of the criminals and deliberately made up such reasons to confuse us."
The border police's eyes were full of vigilance.
Qi Tongwei felt extremely helpless and aggrieved. He never expected that his sincerity would be misunderstood in this way.
He tried to explain more, but the officers wouldn't listen.
As for Qi Tongwei's desire to treat Chen Yang, these policemen expressed complete indifference.
“This is your personal matter and has nothing to do with us.
We have our own responsibilities and cannot waste our time and energy on your personal problems."
Qi Tongwei's heart sank instantly. He originally thought that as fellow police officers, they would understand his feelings and try their best to help him find Chen Yang.
But now it seems that they don't care at all.
"It turns out that the police in China are like this. They are paid for nothing, taking so-called messy money, but they don't do any real work. They are simply too rubbish."
Qi Tongwei thought angrily in his heart.
But he knew that this idea was wrong and he could not deny all police officers just because of the attitude of these few policemen.
Qi Tongwei fell into deep despair.
He didn't know what to do. No one believed him and no one was willing to help him.
He felt like a lone wolf, struggling hard in this strange land.
He lay on the hospital bed, his mind racing.
He thought of the good times he had with Chen Yang and the vows they had made.
He couldn't give up just like that, he had to find Chen Yang, no matter what the cost.
Qi Tongwei decided to try to persuade the police again.
He gathered his thoughts and found the police captain in charge of him.
"Captain, I know you have doubts about me, but I really have no other purpose.
I'm just an ordinary policeman and I can't just watch my ex-girlfriend get into danger.
Please trust me and help me find Chen Yang."
Qi Tongwei's eyes were full of sincerity and expectation.
The police captain looked at Qi Tongwei and was silent for a moment.
“It’s not that we don’t want to help you, but this matter is indeed very complicated.
We have our responsibilities and rules and cannot cross the line easily.
Moreover, we cannot be sure of your true purpose. If you are really an accomplice of criminals, our actions will bring great risks. "
After hearing what the captain said, Qi Tongwei was filled with disappointment.
He knew what the captain said made sense, but he still refused to accept it.
"Captain, I can guarantee with my character that I am absolutely not an accomplice of criminals.
I'm just an ordinary person who wants to save the one I love.
Please give me a chance to prove myself."
As soon as Qi Tongwei finished speaking, he was ridiculed by the police.
"Humph, if a girl goes to Burma, she will surely die.
It's hilarious to be doing all this mess."
A policeman said with disdain.
Other policemen also echoed: "Yes, this is Myanmar, especially the Golden Triangle area, where people eat each other, it is not suitable for normal people to survive.
Once your ex-girlfriend enters Myanmar, she will never come back, so don't waste your energy and go back quickly."
Qi Tongwei's face turned very ugly. He looked at the policemen angrily, with a strong feeling of unwillingness in his heart.
"How can you say that? Chen Yang is not an ordinary girl. She is kind, brave and strong.
She didn't deserve this fate.
I will find her, no matter what the cost."
As the police looked at Qi Tongwei's excitement, the ridicule on their faces gradually disappeared, replaced by helplessness and sympathy.
They knew Qi Tongwei's feelings, but in their opinion, Qi Tongwei's persistence was meaningless.
"Qi Tongwei, calm down. It's not that we don't want to help you, but the situation here is too complicated.
The situation in Myanmar is turbulent, criminal groups are rampant, and our police operations here are greatly restricted.
If you go to look for your girlfriend alone, you are like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."
The captain said earnestly.
Qi Tongwei was silent for a moment, then raised his head, his eyes full of determination.
“Captain, I know it’s dangerous here, but I can’t give up.
Chen Yang is the most important person in my life. I can't just watch her fall into danger.
I believe that as long as we don’t give up, we will find her.”
The captain looked at Qi Tongwei's determined eyes and his heart moved slightly.
He knew that Qi Tongwei was a stubborn person and once he made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.
But he couldn't let Qi Tongwei take the risk, after all, the danger here was too great.
"Qi Tongwei, listen to me.
We will do our best to help you find your girlfriend, but you cannot act on your own.
You have to trust us, we will use professional means and methods to conduct the investigation.
If you act on your own, you will not only be in danger, but will also affect our investigation."
The captain said seriously.
After listening to the captain's words, Qi Tongwei expressed his agreement. He thought it would be better to follow the captain's arrangements.
In the following days, Qi Tongwei waited for the captain's actions and responses with great anticipation. He kept praying in his heart that Chen Yang would be safe and sound, and he also hoped that the captain would bring good news as soon as possible.
However, as the days passed, Qi Tongwei did not wait for the captain's next move.
He began to feel anxious and uneasy, and his doubts grew deeper and deeper.
