What’s wrong?
At noon on February 7 (the third day of the Chinese New Year), it was the peak of the inflow of passengers and the check-in hall of Chengdu Airport was full of passengers. In the queue, a foreign passenger constantly looked around and changed the queue several times. The suspicious behavior caused the attention of the police on duty.

“Hello, please show your passport.” After repeated inspections by the police, the passport and Chinese visa of the passenger are true and valid.
“Are you traveling alone in China? Where do you live? Is there a friend to pick you up?” The police asked the passengers.
Perhaps because of the guilty conscience, the passenger was very nervous when asked by the police. He answered the question and started sweating on his forehead.
A fake British visa was found
In order to ensure the rapid clearance of the passengers behind, the police handed over the passengers to the branch and reported his judgment. After the inspection of the passenger’s luggage, the police found clothes throughout the year and a large number of cooking utensils.
