In Cambodia in July, weeds grow as tall as people.
At four o'clock in the morning, Chinese policeman Chen Jie'an drove to a villa surrounded by swampy land, with tight barriers: surrounded by cameras, all curtains closed, air conditioning in full swing, plenty of shoes in doorways, and sentry.
There's something wrong with that!
Chen Jie'an just took out his mobile phone and prepared to secretly take pictures. Suddenly, seven or eight men with guns surrounded him and held them against his head.
"Oops! This time someone else wrapped dumplings! ”
However, he never imagined that he had "mistakenly broken into" the residence of a Cambodian general, and the gendarmerie was hidden around on weekdays to be responsible for security...
Twisted to the barracks and showed the gendarmes pictures
Later, the gendarmerie sent Chen Jie'an to a nearby military camp. Because he was in Cambodia and could not communicate in languages, Chen Jie'an could not explain his identity for a while.
Suddenly, he had a stroke of genius!
Just a few days ago, on July 1, 2017, China and Cambodia conducted the first joint law enforcement, destroying 12 dens and arresting 74 suspects. Local news media reported on it, and there were also photos of himself wearing police uniforms and Cambodian police.

Chen Jie'an turned out the photos and reports to show the gendarmes, and the other party understood his identity and praised him in English: "China police, good!"
The misunderstanding was resolved, but Chen Jie'an was very frustrated.
Previously, after nearly a month of efforts, the Chinese police finally identified 15 criminal dens in Cambodia that engaged in communication fraud, naked chat fraud, and online gambling posing as public prosecutors. But I don't know which link went wrong, but the most important suspects all escaped before the action...
What to do? Do you go back home, or do you continue to squat?
For a time, Chen Jie'an and his colleagues were not only not happy, but fell into a deep disappointment. The team was also shrouded in confused emotions.
"Running so far, the one you want to catch the most is not caught, how to go back and explain?" Keep squatting and bide your time! Chen Jie'an said emphatically.
He suddenly remembered that a villa that had once stepped on a point was very suspicious, and he came alone late at night to inquire, but there was a misunderstanding...
Just like before the task force came to Cambodia, the case once again reached an impasse, and Chen Jie'an's mood almost dropped to a freezing point.
"Roast rats, the very big kind..."
Four months ago, a citizen in Guang'an, Sichuan Province, received a call from a self-proclaimed "police officer of the Nanchong City Public Security Bureau" who was lured into 1.05 million yuan in his elaborate scam, and the victim almost collapsed, pinning his first-line hope on the police.
When the police quickly activated the freezing mechanism, all the money had been transferred by the suspects.
Chen Jie'an, then the head of the network security detachment of the Guang'an Municipal Public Security Bureau, led the team to analyze the massive data information and found a domestic website visited by a suspected suspect.
After that, he and his colleagues followed the vine, and through further reconnaissance, a telecommunications network fraud gang posing as public prosecutors in Cambodia gradually surfaced...
Three months later, the task force embarked on an unknown journey to Cambodia.
"The food was all curry," and I had diarrhea every day; I couldn't read the signs, I couldn't understand the language, I couldn't understand the local laws, the poor security situation, and the car thieves snatching their belongings on the street at night..."
Traveling in China to handle cases, no matter how hard the road is, it will not suffer too much in the mouth. But in Cambodia, especially in some remote areas, the fish is eaten with the kind of sour and slippery meat. What made Chen Jie'an most devastated was that there were actually roast rats, very large kinds...
Under such conditions, their favorite food is still instant noodles, but they must put a large spoonful of "old dry mother" brought from China!
The unkempt "homeless man" turned out to be a Chinese policeman!
In a foreign country, there is no imaginary beauty, except for suffering is tiredness.
The humid and sweltering Cambodia, the disgusting smell of the stinky gutters and the mosquito bites on the body are even more unforgettable.
They crouched in the high grass, sleepy, and took a nap in place; when they were hungry, they ate a little convenience food.
Time waits for no one.
With the support of relevant domestic departments, the task force quickly found a number of suspected telecommunications dens scattered in various provinces of Cambodia.
"Most of these suspected dens are single-family villas, which are different from the well-planned and beautiful villa areas in China, more like small western-style buildings built by themselves in the countryside, surrounded by swamps and ponds floating with garbage, small ditches washed out by domestic sewage, and wild grasses grow as tall as people." Chen Jie'an said.
Since there is no obvious cover around the den, there are still patrols at the gate, which is inconvenient to approach the reconnaissance.
Therefore, Chen Jie'an and his colleagues could only hide in the nearby weeds, by the stinky ditch, or in a closed car, squatting non-stop for twenty-four hours. Even the household garbage that comes out of the villa is not spared.
After a few days, everyone had a beard and a face full of oil, and the smell of the body and the smell of the stinky gutter had long been indistinguishable...
No one could have imagined that this group of "homeless people" who were disheveled and sleeping in the wind and food were actually Chinese policemen!
Late night car anchored in the valley and pushed ten kilometers!
The days of squatting are difficult, and it is not easy to "move".
"I was particularly impressed by the day when 5 of us were driving overnight to a deserted valley in a deserted valley when the car malfunctioned and broke down. It's really called a wilderness, there is no village in front of it, and there is no shop in the back! ”
Due to the scattered fraud dens, it is necessary to drive across regions to handle cases. To avoid leaking secrets, they refused to hire local translators and drivers, opting instead for self-driving.
Sleep all night waiting for rescue, so the risk of exposure is too great, and finally they decide to push the cart to find the shop.
Therefore, 5 big men actually worked together to push the nest car, and walked dozens of kilometers of mountain roads to find a car repair shop.
"Maybe it was a favor, there was a gas station next to it, and we were all happy at the time!"
Although the difficulties were overcome one by one, the most important targets of arrest were pounced on during the joint operation.
When Chen Jie'an was at a loss in the barracks, the gendarmes who understood the situation told him that there was indeed a large number of Chinese living in a villa nearby!
Later reconnaissance confirmed that this was exactly the scam den they were looking for impersonating public prosecutors!
This time, the fraud gang did not escape again.
Now, after more than 4 years, Chen Jie'an, who is already the political commissar of the Economic Development Bureau of the Guang'an City Public Security Bureau in Sichuan Province, mentioned this thrilling experience and had this feeling:
"A lot of things abroad are very limited, and it is troublesome to coordinate with the local government, the military, the police, but we can successfully complete the task, in the final analysis, because we have a strong motherland behind us."
