Hunting Love and Stealing Hearts in Dangerous Love South America

Su Yi stopped talking, and pulled the bruised Latin child to his side.The child couldn't understand the conversation between Yue Xiao and Su Yi, thinking that Su Yi was going to hit him too, he was so frightened that he put his hands on his head, kept saying sorry in English, shivering like a baby bird in the rain.

Seeing him like this, Su Yi couldn't bear it even more. He pulled his arm and asked softly, "What's your name? How old are you? Can you understand my English?"

The boy calmed down quickly, and when he realized that the flesh and blood would not suffer, he replied with big black eyes, "My name is Juan, and I am 13 years old." His English had a thick Latin accent.

"Why do you want to steal things? Such behavior is very bad." Su Yi said as he took out a travel wipe to help Juan wipe off the tears and blood on his face.

Juan looked ashamed and said, "I know, but I haven't eaten much in two days, only an expired bread that someone threw away. My friend said let me help him—"

Su Yi felt the bones on Juan's arms.Latin people have deep outlines, but because they are thin, Juan's eyes are deeply sunken, and his cheekbones are very prominent.

Su Yi's eyes were moist.

As the saying goes, "Half a child eats a poor man", teenage boys are growing, and they can easily feel hungry.When Su Yi was 13 years old, he had to eat a few bowls of rice every meal and had extra meals at night, while Juan, who was the same age, could only pick up expired bread.

"I treat you to a big meal!" Su Yi blurted out.

Juan's big eyes lit up instantly.

"What's the matter with you?" Yue Xiao frowned, and said in Chinese: "It's you who said you don't want to make troubles, why are you making trouble again? These South American children are all smuggled here, and they steal and rob here. It has become a social nuisance, maybe it is a peripheral member of some gang."

Su Yi hesitated for a moment, but seeing Juan swallowing his saliva cutely, he still gave Yue Xiao a pleading look.

In the end, I took Juan to a Chinese restaurant and ordered some sweet and sour pork, Kung Pao chicken and so on that foreigners love to eat.

Juan was sitting primly on the seat, but as soon as the food came to the table, he immediately ate it with a spoon, and even ate all the soup.

Yue Xiao and Su Yi had already eaten, and their eyes widened in surprise when they saw Juan gobbling it up. Almost all the food on the table enough for three adults went into Juan's belly.

Juan's eating slowed down, probably because he was full, but he kept stuffing rice into his mouth.

Juan said happily, "I have been in the United States for more than a year, and this is the first time I have sat in a restaurant to eat seriously."

"You are so young, where are your parents? Why did you come to America?" Su Yi asked.

"They're all gone," Juan lowered his head. "My hometown is too poor. An orphan like me can only starve. Everyone said: Go to America! There are jobs and bread there, so I came here, But it was worse."

Su Yi patted Juan's shoulder affectionately, feeling even more saddened. Many of these Latin Americans who smuggled in, especially juveniles like Juan, were forced to become gang members.

After dinner, Yue Xiao went back to the hotel first, but Su Yi insisted on sending Juan back to where he lived, but Juan took him to a bench in the park.

"This is my place. It's quiet and spacious. The walnut tree above provides shelter from the wind and rain, and there are walnuts to eat in the fall. There was a bearded homeless man who wanted to fight me, so I had a hard fight with him. "

The wooden bench under the walnut tree in the park, surrounded by green grass and blooming flowers, is a beautiful picture, but it is not so wonderful when it is used as a home.

Su Yi couldn't bear it anymore, and without a word, he took Juan back to the hotel where he was staying, and bought an extra bed in his room for ten dollars.

Yue Xiao was sitting on the bed and flipping through the small cowhide bag, spreading out the bundles of banknotes, checking them one by one, and carefully opened every mezzanine of the bag to check. Su Yi knew that he was looking for money in the money. No tracker was placed to prevent it from being used by the US police.

While doing these things, Yue Xiao watched coldly as the waiter brought an extra bed with blue stripes, and watched Su Yi busy looking for his own clothes to replace for Juan.

"You love too much, don't you?" When Juan went to take a bath, Yue Xiao snorted, pointed in the direction of the bathroom and said, "You know? These people are problem teenagers, Latin Americans are very wild, in case—— ,"

"If he was a member of a gang, he wouldn't just be able to sleep in a chair in the park." Su Yi said seriously, "You are right, but I just want to help him as much as I can. In fact, what I do is just a drop in the bucket. "

Yue Xiao stopped talking and watched TV by himself.

Juan came out of the shower, wrapped in a white towel, with wet black hair sticking to his scalp, brown skin was clean, he was a very handsome young man.

Su Yi took out a mini medical bag in his luggage, carefully wiped the corners of his damaged mouth and eyes with iodine and alcohol, and kept complaining in his heart that Yue Xiao was too heavy handed.

Juan couldn't pronounce the pronunciation of Su Yi's name, and called him "Su Su" without authorization, which made Su Yi laugh out loud.

Yue Xiao looked at Su Yi and Ju An laughing together, and felt a dull pain in his wrist. He opened his sleeve, and the place Su Yi twisted during the day had swelled up, and a few black fingerprints were clearly visible.

For some reason, his heart ached.

◇

The plane landed in Santa Fe Bogota, the capital of Colombia, and Su Yi felt like a dream.

In this South American country known for its chaos and drugs, even Su Yi, who is an Interpol, feels strange and distant.Previously, my understanding of this country was limited to the "Colombia Coffee" on the menu of the coffee shop, which has a strong aroma but tastes bitter, and at most added the funny TV series "Ugly Betty" that was once popular all over the world.

When I got off the plane, the first surprise was the cool weather here, probably because of the plateau, even the blue sky and white clouds were so low that it seemed within reach.

The taxi drove to the Bolivar Plaza in the city center. Due to the mountainous terrain, the road was winding. Most of the buildings along the way were relatively small and casual, as if there was no plan at all, revealing the laxity of South Americans everywhere.

People in tropical areas are always very enthusiastic, and enthusiastic people seem to be more relaxed and optimistic at the same time, just like South Americans and Africans.

Every personality has its two sides.

The most surprising thing is that this place is still a country of flowers. There are vendors selling flowers everywhere on the roadside.

Roses, daisies, lilies, lilies of the valley, rhododendrons, carnations, as well as the national flower of Colombia, the May orchid, are dazzling in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.

"Sir, the flowers here are beautiful, right? The flowers are bigger than other places, and they bloom all year round. They have been exported to all over the world, earning a lot of foreign exchange." The taxi driver introduced without losing the opportunity.

Su Yi and Yue Xiao looked at each other and smiled amidst the intoxicating fragrance of flowers, almost forgetting that this is also a drug empire rich in cocaine, marijuana, and weapons.

When getting off the bus, Su Yi was busy paying the fare, and only then remembered that his wallet was empty, and all the US dollars he had with him had been left to Juan, and Yue Xiao was keeping all the funds.

"I want you to deposit a lot of money," Yue Xiao said with a smile, "How much is your own salary? Give that boy of unknown origin a few hundred dollars at once."

Su Yi said: "It's my own money, it doesn't matter, we still have funds anyway."

Su Yi has only one year of police experience, and the few hundred dollars is nearly one-third of his monthly salary, but he thinks of Juan's scrawny skeleton, the smiling face with tears when he got the money, and his reluctance to say goodbye In an instant, Su Yi felt that it was worth it.

Yue Xiao suddenly smiled and said, "That's right, we have 200 million Colombian pesos, do you feel like a millionaire?"

Su Yi hates him for this, always talking to himself in an ironic tone, who doesn't know the exchange rate between Colombian pesos and US dollars, one thousand pesos equals one US dollar.

Yue Xiao paid the fare, got out of the car, and startled a group of pigeons in the square.On the other side of the square, a group of people was demonstrating fanatically with slogans. The scene was very South American. I don't know if it was a strike or something else.

This is a Spanish-style square, surrounded by buildings such as the Cathedral and San Carlos Palace, and in the middle is a statue of Bolivar Province, the liberator of South America, holding a long sword.These buildings have been old for a long time, and they look a little old, and even those curved walls are a little incomplete.

Yue Xiao stood in a narrow aisle next to the tower next to the cathedral, and kept looking around, not knowing what he was looking for.

After a while, a young man in camouflage trousers and a white T-shirt walked over. The young man was so thin that the white T-shirt fluttered in the wind like hanging on a hanger. On the T-shirt was a beret Guevara portrait.

"Hey! Sir, you must want some excitement!" The tall and thin young man leaned into Yue Xiao's ear and said, probably because he often sells to tourists. His English pronunciation is not bad, "One gram is only two $[-], you can’t get it that cheap anywhere else!”

Su Yi understood that this was a small street drug dealer. These people were at the very end of the drug trade. They mixed the drugs of the bosses with quinine or glucose, and retailed them to hidden gentlemen, just punks.

Why is Yue Xiao looking for this kind of person?

Interpol in Hong Kong pretended to be a member of the Hexin Society and had a phone call with Castillo. According to the plan, they should rent a car directly to San Jose in the southeastern province of Guainha, and then Castillo would send someone to pick them up.

Yue Xiao said to the gangster: "Your ones are not enough, what we want is more exciting."

As he spoke, he simulated a shooting motion with his left thumb and index finger.

Zhugan looked at Yue Xiao suspiciously, as if he was thinking about it, but in the end he chose to be cautious, turned around and left, deciding not to get involved in the muddy water.

Yue Xiao quickly grabbed him, took out a stack of green dollars, and stuffed them into his hands.With a lot of money, there must be a brave man, the bamboo pole gritted his teeth, and brought Yue Xiao and Su Yi to a military store.

This store is located in a small alley near the racetrack. It has a small facade and the business is deserted. People who don't know it will definitely wonder why it has not closed down.

There are various military models and outdoor supplies piled up on the shelf, but apparently it has not been touched for a long time, and there is a thin layer of dust on it. A fat man is dozing off behind the counter.

Under the recommendation of the bamboo pole, the fat shopkeeper led them into the inner room and opened the large walk-in closet. There was no clothes in it, but there were rows of various weapons, most of which were made in the United States, as small as the Delinger pocket pistol. , as large as a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher, there are a wide variety of things that one expects to find, but about half of them are second-hand goods.

Yue Xiao bought four guns in one go, two American-made M1911 pistols, two M16 assault rifles, and some magazines.

Su Yi looked at the two Ml6s and frowned. He is a policeman, not a soldier, and has never used a rifle. Besides, the M16 is famous for its high failure rate and easy jamming in actual combat, which has been widely criticized.

"Why are you buying these?" Su Yi asked, it's nothing more than a pistol, carrying such a big rifle with you is simply asking for trouble for yourself.

Yue Xiao smiled and said nothing, paid the money, and ran outside again, looking at the military models with interest like a little boy, picking them up one by one and looking at them carefully.Finally, I bought a black authentic Spanish Otto Jungle King No. [-] saber, a lot of compressed biscuits and self-heating food for individual soldiers, and even bought two hammocks.

"Are you going camping and hunting?" Su Yi asked with a strange expression.

◇

This is a dilapidated small fishing boat, the white paint on the hull has faded to mottled spots, and the engine noise at the stern is loud.The young man at the helm, Martin, was humming a cheerful tune, and there were drug dealers standing at the bow and stern of the boat with live ammunition.

Su Yi nervously stood behind Yue Xiao, and Yue Xiao leisurely looked at the dark green turbid river below while leaning on the side of the boat.To be so relaxed and natural under such circumstances, Su Yi felt his lack of experience.

They haven't arrived at Castillo's camp yet, and only Su Yi is wearing an M1911. If something happens, the firepower of the pistol makes it impossible to protect themselves.

A day ago, when the two first arrived in San Jose, Yue Xiao came to a remote place in the outskirts and hid two rifles, one pistol, and a large pile of outdoor items in a small cave on the hillside.Then he called Castillo.

Of course, these things would be useless if they could retreat without revealing their flaws, but if there was any accident, they could only rely on these if they wanted to survive in the jungle.

San Jose is located in the easternmost part of Colombia, at the junction of Colombia, Venezuela and Brazil.It has entered the edge of the Amazon Basin, with dense river networks and lush vegetation.January is the dry season here, the water in the river has not reached the highest water level, and part of the riverbed is exposed on both sides of the small river.

Su Yi and Yue Xiao had studied the map of this area before, but they still couldn't determine the name of the river below.The Amazon River is the second longest river in the world, second only to the Nile, but in terms of basin area and water flow, it is well-deserved first in the world.The river may have been a tributary of a tributary of a tributary of the Amazon.

The driving time was not long, and soon they reached a confluence of rivers. Martin drove the boat into another water area. After driving along this river for less than half an hour, the boat stopped.

"My friends in Hong Kong, the destination has arrived!" Martin smiled, his white teeth gleaming in the sunlight.

Because the hull is a bit big, you must go into the water if you want to go ashore. Two Latin men jumped into the water and dripped to the shore with their rifles held high.

Martin smiled and made an inviting gesture. Su Yi jumped into the water first and looked up at Yue Xiao.

"Are you sure there are no piranhas here?" Yue Xiao asked with a smile, "I don't want to become a skeleton!"

"Haha, piranhas usually inhabit places with a wide water surface. The water surface is so narrow here, so there won't be any. Besides, you are our important guest, and we will never let you take risks." Martin is a very sweet mouth kid.

A group of people went ashore, Martin and Yue Xiao Su Yi stood side by side, while the other four people intentionally or unintentionally stood in a double-team formation of two in front and two behind.

This is just the edge of the rainforest, and there are not so many plants that it is difficult to walk.A group of people walked east, passed through two small hills, and suddenly turned to the south again, and the scenery in front of them suddenly changed.

This is an open land. The original wild plants have been cut down, and all the coca plants are planted. The waves of high and low leaves fluctuate with the wind, and there are green colors everywhere.The coca plant is slightly similar to a tea tree, but it feels much more seductive, with clusters of bright red blood-like coca berries on the green leaves.

Both Su Yi and Yue Xiao were stunned, and they set up a pergola to look around.They had seen coca before, but it was only a photo or a sample of a single plant. Only after seeing it with their own eyes did they know that it was such a beautiful plant, and the strong contrast between emerald green and bright red almost made people dizzy.

But what makes people tremble is not actually their beautiful appearance. Like poppies, these drug-derived plants can produce heroin or cocaine. For these, how many people have taken risks and how many wives have been separated. Behind every coca and poppy plant There is a tragic story, once seeing them, people can't help trembling and sighing.

But plants are just plants, and flowering and fruiting are just their instincts for thousands of years. Their beauty and strangeness are all subjective senses of human beings, and their crimes are actually the sins of human beings themselves.

Seeing the shocked expressions of Su Yi and Yue Xiao, Martin smiled triumphantly: "This piece of coca grows very well, those addicts are blessed."

"Yes," Yue Xiao came back to his senses and said, "Mr. Castillo will also make a lot of money."

"Hehe, yes, but now that we have Mr. Lin, we don't have to be afraid even if the coca crop fails."

Both Su Yi and Yue Xiao were shocked. "Mr. Lin" was undoubtedly Lin Jiahua who refined methamphetamine.However, Martin did not follow this topic, and Su Yi and Yue Xiao also refrained from asking questions. After all, it is not appropriate for them to appear suspicious about searching for secrets.

"I'm sorry, I'm about to see Mr. Castillo, please hand over your weapons." Martin said politely, "We will keep them safe for you."

Yue Xiao and Su Yi glanced at each other. This situation was expected, and Su Yi handed over his gun.

Castillo's camp was built on the flat slope of the cow hill. A set of high-power diesel generator sets can provide sufficient electricity, and even a simple water supply and drainage system was established. The camp is surrounded by a power grid full of iron thorns.

Below the hillside, a group of people was welcoming Yue Xiao and Su Yi.The leader was wearing a yellow-green military uniform, about 40 years old, wearing sunglasses, with a long and thin face, and although he was clean-shaven, his chin was blue.

The strong aura around him showed that he was Castillo himself.

"Welcome very much! Mr. Xiao and Mr. Li," Castillo said, "The two of you have come all the way from Hong Kong to my remote village. You must be very tired. Please come with me."

Castillo is a well-known man in South America. He is half a warlord and half a drug dealer. He has led a team of hundreds of people in the rainforest for half his life. Although these words are polite, the momentum is still very overwhelming. .

Yue Xiao smiled politely, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Mr. Castillo is too polite. Although your place is remote, there is wealth everywhere. This piece of coca has been harvested, and the wealth obtained is absolutely astronomical."

"Yes, there are plenty of goods here, but if they can't be shipped out, they're worthless."

"That's why we're here!" Yue Xiao said in an exaggerated tone.

"Haha, okay, no wonder you got a high position at such a young age." Castillo smiled slightly and invited Yue Xiao and Su Yi to a khaki convertible jeep next to him.

The road is a dirt road. As soon as the jeep started, it raised a cloud of yellow dust and drove towards the mountain.

Yue Xiao and Castillo stood at the front of the car, holding on to the railing, Su Yi stood behind Yue Xiao, and besides Martin, there was a middle-aged man named Gonzalez behind Castillo, He is Castillo's military adviser, number two here.

Coca is also grown on the hillside, and a group of villagers, many of whom are elderly, children and women, are picking coca leaves.Because the warlords here are separated, wars are frequent, and because the cocaine produced in large quantities and sold to the United States is hated by the United States, they often send planes to this area.

American planes did not shoot or drop bombs here. They sent fleets here to spray herbicides. Under the influence of a large number of chemicals, the soil condition deteriorated. Not only coca could not grow, but also food and vegetables could not grow.The young and middle-aged laborers left one after another to make a living in big cities like Bogota and Medellin.

The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled still have to survive, so they have to change places, or wait three months for the herbicide to fail, and then grow coca in a larger area.Because only planting this here is worth some money, and it saves worry and effort.

The poorer you are, the more you grow, and the more you grow, the more poor you are. This is an irreversible vicious circle that exists in the three regions of the Golden Triangle, Golden Crescent, and Silver Triangle.

Su Yi secretly sighed in his heart.

Wherever the jeep went, the old people and children who were working cheered for Castillo. It could be heard that this cheer came from the heart, because Castillo bought all their coca leaves, which were their food and clothing. parents.

Moreover, Castillo has guns, many guns, and in this backwater corner, Castillo is the mighty, omnipotent God, and they are all his subjects.

In fact, many times, human beings worship force and power more than they think.

Castillo waved his right hand at these people to answer, then turned to Yue Xiao and said, "These people live a good life, if it wasn't for the Yankees who are always making trouble, they would be better off."

Yue Xiao nodded.

"Actually, the wealth obtained from drugs is not my ultimate goal," Castillo said suddenly, "We believe that the world order is unfair, we want revolution, we need to use force to break it, and establish a new balance , a new world of fairness and freedom."

When Castillo suddenly mentioned such a topic, both Yue Xiao and Su Yi were taken aback.

"The whole world is scolding drugs and drug dealers, as if we are the source of all evil." Castillo continued, "In fact, drugs are a good thing, because those who take drugs, their hearts are already rotten, they often Can’t afford the temptation of drugs, in a way, drugs are their salvation and their reason for living.”

"I want to use drugs to redeem those who are suffering and empty, and use the money from drug trafficking to redeem those strong people and build a new world. Even if I don't sell drugs, other people will do it, because in this world , there will always be scum who are heartbroken and don’t know why they want to live.”

The people in the car were silent, and Castillo's words were as deceptive as a speech.

"Scumbags don't do drugs," a voice said suddenly. "Drugs make them change."

It was Su Yi who spoke, and everyone in the car looked at him. His words were a naked questioning of Mr. Castillo.Both Martin and Gonzalez's faces darkened.

Yue Xiao shouted: "Zhuo Ran, shut up and apologize to Mr. Castillo!"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, young people are young when they speak bluntly!" Castillo was not angry.

For some reason, Su Yi was very excited and could not restrain himself: "You sell tons and tons of cocaine all over the world. Isn't it too painful for those who have been fooled or deceived into taking drugs for a while, but can never quit again? Have your ideals run counter to it?"

Su Yi's words stunned everyone in the car.

"Bold!" Yue Xiao slapped Su Yi so hard that Su Yi almost fell off the car, "Boss Chen and I have the final say on whether to do drugs or not, just shut up and do things!"

Then, he turned to Castillo and said, "Mr. Castillo, Zoran is my favorite and closest subordinate, but he treats you so unreasonably, so I leave it to you, I have nothing to say."
