One night in April 2013, I was on duty at the police station.
Just after midnight, a middle-aged woman hurried into the duty room, anxiously claiming that her daughter, Huang Yingying, a 16-year-old high school sophomore, had not come home after school and that her phone had been turned off. She has contacted Huang yingying’s head teacher and classmates, but neither of them knows where she went after school and has asked the police to help find her.
At the beginning of this year, the provincial Public security Department just issued the relevant procedures for handling school-related cases: students lost contact in school need to be checked quickly. After getting the recent life photos of Huang Yingying, the police immediately divided two ways, one way went to the Internet bar, bar, KTV and entertainment city around the area to visit, the other way the police went to the reconnaissance squadron to track huang Yingying’s social videos.
An hour later, the officers returned, saying they had found no information about Huang. However, the police who went to the squadron office reported that at around 6 p.m., a surveillance camera across the street from Huang’s school captured a series of images. A girl dressed similarly to Huang boarded a white van with local license plates and left. Through video surveillance, the police tracked the movement of the van and found that the vehicle did not stop in the city after picking up Huang yingying, but drove directly out of the city into the 318 National Highway.
My colleague asked me to check with Huang’s mother. If the girl in the picture is confirmed to be Huang Yingying, they would then go to the traffic police and collect the bayonet photo of National Highway 318.
When I showed her the surveillance footage, she recognized her daughter at once.
I asked her if she knew the white van, but she said no.
Huang’s mother’s mobile phone suddenly rang and was called by Huang Yingying herself. On the phone, huang said she had arrived home but did not bring her house keys. Huang mother first a burst of surprise, then launched a temper, blame her daughter so late to come home, the phone is not turned on, caused her to run to the police station in the middle of the night to report. Hung up the phone, huang mother thanked again and again, and said he must go back to good education children.
It seemed to be just a false alarm, and the policemen on the scene were relieved. colleagues are ready to leave huang mother, has been sitting on the side of the fan director but called them, “wait a minute, you still let the child come to the police station, we meet her.
Huang mother some nervous, ask fan director why want to see her daughter in the middle of the night, “since just reported missing, now people come back, come to the police station to see a face we all at ease. Director Fan replied.

, I understand the purpose of the fan, director of the public security bureau recently “police all three” intelligence platform on the news that the emergence of a prostitution ring in zhuhai, solicit business of advertising gimmick is considerate service “” female students, also it’s someone see there are a few local girl, 16, the director of the van has recently been focused on this matter.
I asked Fan if he thought huang yingying’s late return was related to the news. Fan said that he had no clue at the moment, but it would be better if he didn’t.
fan director told huang mother, do not mention the monitoring pictures, just ask the child where to go at night, huang mother nodded.
It was nearly 2 a.m. when Huang Yingying arrived at the police station. Judging from her dress and appearance, there was no doubt that she was the girl on the surveillance video.
In the office, Fan asks Huang where she went that night. She says she was singing with her classmate, Xie Xiaofan, at the “Good Times” KTV in the city. Huang’s mother immediately retorts that she had talked to Xie Xiaofan on the phone, but Xie Xiaofan did not say that he would be with her tonight.
Huang Yingying looks a little flustered, but still insisted that tonight and Xie Xiaofan did sing in the KTV.
Huang’s mother immediately took out her mobile phone and called Xie Xiaofan. However, Xie Xiaofan on the other end of the phone kept apologizing to Huang’s mother. “I’m sorry, Aunt, we did sing together tonight, I just lied to you…”
Director Fan gave me a meaningful look and quietly texted his colleagues on the video team that they should still go to the traffic police to see where the car had gone after leaving town.
“Good Time” is a peddler-style KTV in the district and a popular gathering place for students nearby to sing. But the police who just visited there have checked the lobby monitoring, but did not find Huang Yingying’s figure.
Soon after, traffic police reported that the white van had left the city and was heading to a neighboring city along State Highway 318. At one point, the surveillance camera captured a clear picture of huang Yingying in the passenger seat.
Huang’s mother angrily asked her daughter where she had been in the car. Confronted with the surveillance video provided by the traffic police, Huang said she was either picking up a classmate or going shopping. When her mother asked who was driving, Huang first said it was a black cab, then a “brother” she knew.
Seeing the girl’s body shaking, April night, but out of a sweat.
Finally, faced with her mother’s pressing questions, Huang yingying’s trembling became more and more obvious. Finally, she cried out “Wow!”

At the police station, Huang told us that she took a car to a hotel in a nearby city that night and had sex with a man in his 40s. She didn’t know the driver, but she got 200 yuan from him after she left the hotel.
It seems that the “three members of the police” on the intelligence is true, captain Fan is not too sensitive.
This is typical prostitution, and judging from the practices of the clients, drivers and Huang, the “cashless transaction” is likely a gang crime.
The nature of the case became serious.
Huang said she was forced to go by a social youth named Xiao De, a former prison inmate who had “some influence” in the local community and was introduced to the “guests”.
According to Huang, the 24-year-old had no legitimate career. His girlfriend, Yang Zhen, a senior at Huang’s school, was expelled last year for leading social workers into a brawl.
When Yang Zhen goes to school, it is in the school famous “elder sister”, depend on the “force” of boy friend small de to dominate in the school. Even after being expelled, Yang often hangs out around the school, helping her “younger brothers” and “younger sisters” deal with “unpleasant people.”
Six months ago, Yang zhen’s “little sister” found Huang Yingying and said her “elder sister” wanted to see her. If she refused, the consequences would be very serious. Huang Yingying had to see Yang Zhen one side.
When they met, Yang was not as fierce as she was rumored to be. Instead, she was very enthusiastic about Huang, asking her to eat out, sing songs and go to bars one after another. She also told Huang that if she “encountered anything” in school, she would only have to name her “wayan”.
Since then, Yang has often approached Huang after school, never asking her to pay for any visits she makes.
At first, Huang didn’t know why Yang was so nice to her, but she didn’t dare to refuse, and to some extent she was happy to have her “big sister” protecting her. The two got closer and closer.
It wasn’t until two months ago that Yang approached Huang and offered her a “part-time job.” Huang said she would take the college entrance exam next year, but she rejected Yang. Don’t want “eldest sister” fly into a rage, on the spot turned face.
Yang took out a “shopping list”, saying it was all expenses she had paid huang recently for food, drink and entertainment. Huang refused to take the part-time job to save her face. In this case, they could not be “sisters” and she was limited to pay back the money she had spent in three days.
When Huang took a look at the list, she was stunned. It was filled with details of how much she and Yang had spent over the past few months. The final figure was 16,000 yuan.
“Did you really cost her that much?” I asked Huang Yingying.
She shook her head and said she didn’t remember. She did not dare to argue under that scene, had only a strong plea Yang Zhen give a little time, he went back to find a way to raise money.
Yang didn’t agree, and huang, a sophomore, couldn’t raise 16,000 yuan in three days. She threatened to stop coming to school if she couldn’t pay, or she would beat her every time she saw her.
Terrified, Huang tried to ask Yang what she was doing “part-time”. Yang told her that she went to prostitution for 1,000 yuan a time, of which 200 yuan went to Huang Yingying and 800 yuan was used to “pay off debts” until she paid off the “debts”.
Huang initially disagreed, but Yang added that her boyfriend was a “streeters” who had been in prison and could do anything. She told Huang not to default on her debts, or she would be targeted by “streeters” and her family would suffer as well.
With threats and threats, Huang finally agreed to Yang’s part-time job in tears. To prevent her from calling the police or notifying her parents, Yang called Xiao De and took naked photos of Huang.
Over the next two months, under the direction of Yang and her boyfriend, Xiao De, Huang had sex with eight men, sometimes in hotels, sometimes at each other’s homes, and on several occasions in Ma Zai’s car.
The previous “guests” were all local and had not been detected due to the short trading time. This is my first trip out of town.
Forced prostitution, that’s a big deal. While Fan reported the case to his superiors, he arranged for the first group of Interpol to find and summon Yang Zhen and Xiao De, while I stayed and continued to question Huang.
“Is there anyone else like you?” I asked Huang Yingying
She nodded.
“Who?”
Xie Xiaofan.

Huang yingying told me that xie Xiaofan, a classmate and good friend, was the “little sister” who first informed her to meet her “big sister” Yang Zhen. In addition, she also “served” a client with Xie Xiaofan.
Fan director immediately arranged the second group of Interpol summoned Xie Xiaofan overnight.
Xie xiaofan and Huang Yingying in the same year, a single-parent family. Nine years ago, his parents divorced, Xie Xiaofan was awarded to his mother by the court, but his mother only raised Xie Xiaofan for two years before he disappeared, since then Xie Xiaofan has been living with his grandmother.
Xie Xiaofan was taken to the police station directly into the interrogation room. In the face of only seen on TV interrogation chair, sound wall and write “truthful confession, a relaxed” sign, Xie Xiaofan very nervous, before long, he told us everything.
Xie’s story is almost the same as Huang’s. He first spent money with others and then was forced to engage in prostitution because he could not pay his bills. However, the person threatening Xie was not Yang Zhen herself, but another student named Xu Meilin.
Xu Meilin is Yang Zhen’s “iron”, Yang Zhen is still in school, the relationship between the two people is very close, for this matter, the school was almost expelled Xu Meilin. After Yang Zhen left school, Xu meilin became Yang Zhen’s “spokesman” at the school. It is said that as long as Xu Meilin a phone, Yang Zhen and Small de can give her to find more than ten bullies “peace”.
Xie Xiaofan said that he owed Xu Meilin more than thirty thousand “debt”, and thus participated in prostitution more than twenty times, each time also only get two hundred yuan reward.
More than two months ago, Xie xiaofan contracted a disease in prostitution and was unable to continue his “part-time job”. Xu told her that she could introduce her classmates to do part-time jobs. For every successful introduction, she could write off 500 yuan of debt. For every girl she was introduced, She could do a part-time job. If Xie Xiaofan refuses, Xu Meilin will not only expose her prostitution, but also will tell Yang Zhen, let the small de “ma Zai” continue to find Xie Xiaofan debt.
In fear, Xie xiaofan pushed his friend Huang Yingying into the pit of fire.
Police station fried pot, so many years, the city has never had such a bad case involving the school. municipal criminal investigation detachment set up a task force overnight to take over, at six o ‘clock in the morning, the third group of Interpol dispatched, summoned Xu Meilin.

The case was further broadened by The arrival of Xu Meilin.
Xu Meilin, 17, high school senior, divorced, originally lived with her mother. Xu lived alone in 2011 after her mother was sentenced for drug trafficking.
Ms. Xu said that although she was now a “fan” of Ms. Yang, she had been one of the “victims.” Her ex-boyfriend Jianping used to be small de “ma Zai”, and small De fell out after leaving the city.
After Jianping left, small de group found Xu Meilin, claiming that Jianping owed his gambling debts of tens of thousands of yuan, forced Xu Meilin to pay.
Xu Meilin is just a high school student, neither have the money for her former boyfriend to pay off debts, and frightened by a small de group of insolence, had to find Yang Zhen, I hope she saw a classmate to help himself to talk.
Did not expect Yang Zhen also “for the sake of a classmate”, xu Meilin introduced a “part-time”.
Under pressure, Xu started her part-time job in early 2012 and has been involved in prostitution more than she can count. When she was busiest, she had to run five prostitution rings a night and was beaten and raped by De several times, according to xu.
In April 2012, Xu meilin was caught in a prostitution ring. She had a chance to testify against Xiao De and his gang, but she did not say so for fear of retribution. The police notified the school to assist in the education, but the school, due to various factors, gave the matter a cold shoulder. Besides, Xu Meilin has no effective guardian, so the matter is finally settled.
after the small de group said Xu Meilin was caught without giving everyone, very “river’s corner” (speak loyalty), but also because Xu Meilin has been in the public security organ “registration”, small de afraid of the matter to make a big, then avoid xu Meilin’s remaining “debt”, also no longer forced her to do “part-time”.
However, Xu meilin did not stop, but gradually rely on the “part-time”.
“After my parents divorced, my father only gave me six hundred yuan every month to live on. When I did that part-time job before, I could keep two hundred yuan each time. Later, I didn’t have to ‘pay my debts’, but all the money was mine.”
because of the lack of money, Xu Meilin began to take the initiative to find Yang Zhen and De do “part-time”, give two people one hundred “referral fees”.
In June 2012, an accidental incident took Xu deeper into the mire. One of Xu’s best friends is Wang Yaya. Once, Xu was walking out of a hotel after doing a “part-time job” when Wang Yaya ran into her. Unable to bear Wang Yaya repeatedly asked, they told her the “part-time” thing.
But instead of helping Xu call the police or ask the school for help, Wang asked xu to “introduce” her.
Wang’s family condition is not bad, let alone outside “arrears”, Xu Meilin do not understand why she did so. Wang told her that she wanted to change to an iPhone, but her family didn’t agree, so she wanted to “make some money.”
Xu Meilin introduced Wang Yaya to Yang Zhen and Xiao De, xiao De soon gave Wang Yaya contacted the “guest”. Since then, Wang Yaya has been doing “part-time” work through Xu Meilin and Yang Zhen. Xiao De deducts wang Yaya’s “referral fee” of 300 yuan each time and gives Xu Meilin 100 yuan.
Xu Meilin found one of the “business opportunities”, and Yang Zhen to discuss, want to borrow their convenience in school development “offline”, and from the “referral fees”, the two hit it off.
“How many referrals have you developed?” I asked Xu meilin.
“About ten people, this school has four or five, the surrounding other schools also have, some ‘offline’ and the development of ‘offline’.”
“Did they all volunteer?”
“Some were active, some were coerced…”
“Who forced it? Are you?”
“Some of me, there are a few girls outside the school is not afraid of me, by Yang Zhen and ‘little de’ do…”
“How do you force people?”
“Be to do ‘cage’ bai, take them to spend money first, wait for money to spend about, give them to introduce ‘part-time job’, don’t want to let ‘small de’ they come forward to frighten…”

Soon, Yang Zhen was arrested, little de disappeared. The public security bureau tracked him down online, and three days later, He was caught in an Internet cafe in Yichang.
Yang Zhen, 17, has been living with her grandmother since she was a child. She is usually unsupervised. When she was still in junior high school, she kept close contact with many unemployed people outside the school, including Xiao De. Ms. Yeung says her biggest admirer is the female leader of the Hong Kong gangster movie ‘The Young Man.’
According to The account of Yang Zhen, in the past two years, she and xiao De organized a number of middle school girls to participate in prostitution activities, whoring clients throughout the surrounding four counties, before and after the income of hundreds of thousands of prostitutes, most of the money was squandered by two people.
As we continued to investigate and collect evidence, more and more victims came to the surface, including two girls under the age of 14 at the time of the crime.
Some girls, like Huang yingying, were forced, threatened, beaten or raped to take the part-time job. Some, like Wang Yaya, take the initiative to make money; There are a few like Xu Meilin, Xie Xiaofan, began to be forced, but later directly joined the gang, by forcing others to seek profits.
In the gang, Yang Zhen is in charge of looking for a girl, small de is in charge of contacting whoring guest, small de “ma Zai” is in charge of driving a car to pick up a girl to go to do “part-time job”, whoring capital is paid by whoring guest “Ma Zai”. “Ma Zai” in accordance with Yang Zhen’s instructions to do a “part-time” part of the money of the girls, the rest of the majority of direct to Yang Zhen and De.
Girls lost after school
The girls they pick have several things in common – divorced families, left-behind teenagers, a lack of love for study, vanity or a desire to “make friends” in society.
Why, I asked Yang Zhen, were they singled out? Yang Zhen says these people are easy to control and not prone to accidents.
There was less discipline because their parents were divorced or living alone; Poor academic performance, the school is generally not much attention; Because of the vanity, it is easy to be attracted by the small grace of Yang Zhen’s group at the beginning; The same because like and the people in the community “make friends”, then less on Yang Zhen’s group of vigilance.
During a search of Xu’s apartment, colleagues found a notepad filled with the names, contact information, “part-time hours” and “fees” of the clients and the students. The inquiry learned that this is Xu Meilin used as Yang Zhen “account” vouchers, because the information is detailed, later, this notepad directly become the arrest of customers and prosecution Of Xu Meilin, Yang Zhen, Xiao De and others to show court evidence.
According to the records, on the night of Huang’s murder, two other girls were introduced by Xu to take part-time jobs, and xu and Yang arranged for three to take part-time jobs within a week. Fortunately, because of the arrest of Xu Meilin and Yang Zhen, these three “part-time jobs” were terminated in time.
In the record book, several girls’ names were marked with an asterisk after them. I asked Xu Meilin what did that mean? Xu meilin said that this means that the girl has been set as the “target person”, but it has not been settled yet.
My colleagues and I were shocked into a cold sweat.

As people involved in the case arrived one after another, the case entered a fixed stage of evidence.
The most critical and difficult part of handling a sexual assault case is to obtain the victim’s report or accusation and the witness record. For many of the girls in the case, the collection of reports or indictments, which requires them to recount their entire victimization, amounts to reopening wounds.
The handling of the case also met with resistance from many parents.
“Come on, we don’t want to talk about it anymore…” Some parents have even called directly for the case to be dismissed.
“And who has not already spoken? Isn’t that enough for the death penalty? Why do you want my girl to tell you?” Although some parents hate Yang Zhen and small de gang, but refused to let their children testify.
At the same time, despite all efforts to prevent the release of information about those involved, rumors continue to circulate.
A 15-year-old girl who had worked four “part-time jobs” under the coercion of Yang Zhen and her gang followed her parents home after being questioned by the police for the first time and has not been able to be contacted since. My colleagues and I have a few times by looking for a girl to do identify the record, but her mother has pleaded that her daughter went to the field “rehabilitation” did not come back, after fruitless after the visit, the girl’s mother finally with the cry of the tone say: “the police officer, please, don’t come, now there are neighbors talk privately about is’ the ‘, you come back, we can’t explain clearly……”
Another girl was less than 14 years old at the time of the attack, and had been beaten and raped by Xiao De. She was the worst victim. Her testimony is very important to us, even directly related to the final sentencing of De. But our efforts to obtain evidence were strongly resisted by the girl’s family. After the attack, she was rushed out of the city by her father, who changed all her contact information and cut off all contact with the original school owners.
In the face of the police to obtain evidence, the girl’s father insisted that we find the wrong person, the child has never happened this kind of thing. The police in order to the small de gang crime as soon as possible, do the victim parents thought work with difficulty.
Although most of the victims cooperated with the police to collect evidence, four of the victims finally refused the police’s request and did not allow the children to be further questioned by the police.
I’ve also asked the girls why they didn’t go to the police in the first place, or even to their parents and school. “Dare not” was the most popular answer, followed by “difficult to speak”.
Huang’s father worked away from home for years, leaving her mother to do the work for him. Mother usually busy work, mother and daughter rarely have the opportunity to do in-depth communication. Huang’s first reaction after learning that she owed a huge debt to Yang Zhen was to worry about her mother’s scolding, so she took a part-time job to pay off the debt.
Xie xiaofan said that she had planned to ask the head teacher for help, but because the head teacher was male, she was too ashamed to open her mouth about the matter. Parents have long lost contact, Xie Xiaofan can not contact them. She wanted to ask my grandmother for help, but she was over eighty and couldn’t give herself any help.
Xu meilin said she had initially complained to her female head teacher about the incident, but the head teacher thought it was too absurd to believe. In April 2012, Xu Meilin was punished by the public security organ for prostitution and informed the school. The head teacher did not have a deep understanding of the reason for Xu’s prostitution, but scolded Xu meilin in the office for “lang”, “shameless” and “bitch”, “bringing shame to the school”. Since then, Xu meilin gave up the idea of asking for help from the teacher, but walked on the road with Yang Zhen.
“In her eyes, only the top 20 students in her class were students. The rest were scum, and I was scum of scum!” During the trial, Xu cried and berated her head teacher.
The parents are not completely irresponsible. One of the most common phrases I’ve heard is: “We are all at work, our children are at school, and one day the family is sitting together at dinner. They don’t say, how would we know?”
Wang Yaya, who asked for a part-time job, had a complete family with a solid family background. My colleague quickly pulled the father away. The queen mother pointed to her daughter’s nose and asked, “Are you short of food, clothes or money? You’ve done such a mean thing?” Wang just blandly replied: “I want an iPhone, why don’t you buy it for me?”
Shen Xiaoli is one of the few girls except Wang Yaya whose family is intact. Her father is a cadre of an office in the city and her mother is doing business outside the city. When colleagues informed Shen Xiaoli of the victimized situation, the two parents fought violently in the police station. Shen’s mother accused her husband, “Knowing that an official never asks about family affairs and should take full responsibility for it”; Shen accused his wife, “You know how to make money and stay up all day long. You are the culprit of this!” When the police stopped fighting, the two began to blame the public security organs together, is “eating rice”, “not found from the seedling”, Shen Fu even threatened to go to the higher authorities to complain.
Chen xiaoxiao’s mother still refused to believe that these things really happened to her daughter. Chen’s father works far away in Guangdong province, while his mother works as a cleaner at a local hotel. To earn extra money, her mother takes a night job at another mall and has little time to communicate with her daughter. Until the crime, the mother did not know her daughter in Yang Zhen, Xu Meilin and other people under the threat of doing six “part-time”…
The end of the
In August 2013, after careful investigation by the public security organs, Yang Zhen and Xiao De’s prostitution ring was destroyed.
