The storm of electronic fraud, the day I was deceived into northern Myanmar

Gina’s plan is clear in my mind.

Initially, this escort mission was just an opportunity to make quick money in their eyes. They thought it would be an easy and pleasant business.

From Gina's point of view, clients like me are just a simple protection task with low risks, considerable profits and not too difficult.

However, she never expected that I would be hunted down on the dark web with a bounty of up to one million US dollars, which completely disrupted her plan.

In fact, if we decide to terminate the contract, for me it will only be a loss of the 30,000 US dollars paid previously, but for them, it means a loss of income that is much greater than this.

She had dominated the initial deal, but now the tables were turned and I had the negotiating power.

After some negotiation, and finally at my insistence, I agreed to pay an additional US$50,000, plus the originally agreed upon US$100,000, bringing the total payment to US$150,000 to ensure that they would safely escort me to Mae Sot, Thailand. .

In exchange, Gina made her terms: for the next few days, I couldn't go anywhere but stay in the safe house.

Given my previous near-missing experience, I have no problem with this.

After all, I don't want to risk my life.

It wasn't until the day the ship docked that I stepped out of the safe house for the first time.

Before I left, Gina did my makeup herself.

Standing in front of the mirror, I could barely recognize myself in the mirror.

Through careful disguise, I have turned into a middle-aged man with a big belly. My face is covered with spots, making me look much older, and my hair has been treated to be sparse.

This change felt strange and surprising to me.

The art of disguise was brought to its extreme in Gina's hands, completely changing my appearance and making me inconspicuous in the crowd.

This kind of disguise was not only to avoid potential pursuers, but also to ensure that I could reach my destination safely. At this moment, I felt sincere admiration for Gina's professional ability.

Due to the special circumstances, I did not say hello to Duan Hong, but directly followed the route arranged by Gina and others to get off the ship.

After getting off the ship, I stepped into the pre-arranged business car, feeling nervous and relieved.

The interior of the business car was elegant and comfortable, but my mind had already flown to Mae Sot, which was about to arrive.

One evening later, when the car drove smoothly into Mae Sot, I felt a long-lost peace.

Gina was sitting in the passenger seat. She turned her head and looked at me with a complicated look. A wry smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Mr. Yang, our deal is over."

I nodded, feeling a little reluctant and relieved that it was all over.

I immediately turned on my phone, performed a few operations, and sent the agreed balance payment via Bitcoin transfer to the digital wallet address she provided.

The whole process was calm and efficient, just like the collaboration between us.

"In view of your consumption this time, Mr. Yang, you have become a VIP customer of our company. If you need any services in the future, you can contact me at any time." Gina took a deep breath, as if to release the past few days. of pressure and tension.

I nodded lightly, but I was thinking about the help I might need in the future: "No problem."

The simple response contained gratitude for the help she had received along the way.

After saying goodbye to Gina, I immediately contacted Lin Ya.

That night we met in a quiet hotel room.

I closed the bathroom door and washed the disguise on my face thoroughly with water. Then I walked out, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and looked at her: "Has there been any result about what I asked you to inquire about?"

Lin Ya has deep roots in Mae Sot. She has lived in Mae Sot for more than ten years and knows every plant and tree here.

She knows a lot of people and has good information, so I asked her to find out about He Hong's power distribution in Thailand.

She nodded slightly, with a hint of complexity in her eyes: "In the early years, He Hong did intend to expand his power in Chiang Mai. But later, due to some unknown reasons, he turned to Sihanoukville. As far as I know, He has almost no roots in Thailand, and I have confirmed from multiple sources that no one seems to have any form of cooperation with him."

Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "So, as long as I stay in Mae Sot, he will be less likely to find me?"

Lin Ya nodded affirmatively.

I pursed my lips slightly, my eyes flickering slightly in the smoke, and asked: "Da Tu and Chang Jianlin, where have you arranged them?"

Lin Ya's hand gently pressed on my shoulder, as if to dispel all the uneasiness and tension in my body: "I rented a house and let them live there for the time being."

As the topic changed, Lin Ya frowned slightly, seeming to be troubled by a more serious question: "Why is He Hong chasing you?"

I took a deep breath from the cigarette and turned my head to look at her. This woman could now be considered one of my trustworthy people, so I decided not to hide it from her anymore.

I confessed to her about killing He Keliang.

She was obviously shocked after hearing this: "Did you kill his brother?"

I nodded slightly.

Lin Ya asked again: "Does He Hong still not know about this?"

I blew out a smoke ring and said in a calm and low voice: "Well... but paper can't cover the fire after all, and this matter will reach his ears sooner or later. However, I'm not sure how he will react when he finds out. "

"Then what are your plans next?" Lin Ya said with a hint of worry in her voice.

I thought for a while, and then said slowly: "I don't think I can stay in Thailand anymore... If He Hong really finds this place, he will probably implicate you."

"Then where do you plan to go?" Lin Ya asked.

I pressed the cigarette butt gently and put it out: "I plan to go to the old street and stay for a while."

The decision I made made Lin Ya a little surprised: "Old Street?"

I nodded affirmatively: "Yes. He Hong has many enemies in Myanmar, and given my relationship with the Wei family, as long as I am in Lao Cai, he is unlikely to find trouble with me."

My choice to go to Lao Cai was not just a whim.

First of all, I really don’t want to implicate Lin Ya.

Secondly, the hotel business in Thailand is my only stable source of legal income at present, and I cannot let this only industry be affected.

Old Street therefore became my best choice.

In Lao Cai, I can temporarily escape the limelight, and at the same time I have the opportunity to look for suitable opportunities and plan my next move.

More importantly, the environment here allows me to temporarily stay away from He Hong's pursuit.

I know in my heart that when the time comes, not only will I not avoid He Hong, but I will take the initiative to resolve this dispute!
