Date and place 2015-10-24 Luohu Pass, Shenzhen Police Station Lin was taken aside by Shenzhen customs officers when he passed the customs, and then at least 11 people took it to a seven-person car, and arrived at a police station in Shenzhen and was confiscated after his documents. During this period, Lin repeatedly asked what had happened, but received no answer. In the evening, the relevant officers inquired about his personal information, and Lin sat in the prisoner's chair all night and could not sleep. 2015-10-25 Transfer from Shenzhen to Ningbo, Zhejiang Province At about 7 o'clock in the morning, Lin was taken into the train wearing handcuffs, eye mask and cap, and after a 13-14 hour drive, he was transferred to a room of less than 300 feet on the second floor of a huge building in Ningbo to change his prison clothes and undergo a physical examination. The rooms are equipped with 24-hour monitors, all facilities are upholstered, and other measures are in place to prevent suicide. That night, Lin asked again what had been committed, but still received no answer. 2015-10-26In the afternoon of a small room in an unknown building in Ningbo, Lin was forced to sign a paper promising to give up contacting his family and hiring a lawyer after he was not informed of the reason for his detention. From 2015-10-27 to 2016-03, Lin was guarded 24 hours a day by six groups of people in a small room in an unknown building in Ningbo, and lost his freedom. Lin was interrogated 20 to 30 times in this room by members of the central task force, and went out for interrogation twice, during which he interrogated the writer of a book that the mainland considered politically banned, and asked Lin to identify the identity of the customer who subscribed to the book. Some personnel sent from Beijing insulted and threatened Lin, accusing the authorities of "not being able to use soft hands" against foresters. Other inmates were seen in the building during the arraignment. Lam was also forced to film a confession video "with a director and a line", which was broadcast on Phoenix TV in February. From 2016-04 to 2016-06-14, a local forest in Shaoguan, Guangdong Province was transferred from Ningbo to Shaoguan, Guangdong, and was subsequently assigned to work in the library, and could not leave a specific area of Shaoguan. During his stay in Shaoguan, he was arranged to go to Shenzhen Qilin Villa to have tea with Li Bo, Lu Bo and Zhang Zhiping, and the whole process was monitored and videotaped. At 1 a.m. one night, two young ladies knocked on the door and were suspected of soliciting pornography. After lengthy negotiations, Lam was allowed to return to Hong Kong to visit his family, but on the condition that he bring back to the mainland the hardware materials ordered by the Causeway Bay Bookstore's customers as evidence in future court proceedings. 2016-06-14From Shaoguan to Shenzhen Gate, Hong Kong at about 7 o'clock in the morning, accompanied by Mr. Lin Shishi and Mr. Chen, Director of the Central Task Force, Shaoguan took the high-speed rail to Shenzhen to cross the customs. After arriving in Hong Kong at noon, Lam reported the case to the Hong Kong police at the request of Shi and Chen. During the Hong Kong period, Shi and Chen parted ways for fear of being photographed with Lam, but Lam had to use the mobile phone they provided to report his whereabouts by text message. 2016-06-15In the afternoon of Hong Kong, Lin went to Li Bo's office as required to pick up the hardware of the customer's order record. Late at night, the personnel of the central task force were notified that they had taken the computer hardware by mistake. On the morning of 2016-06-16, Lin asked Li Bo to retrieve the correct hardware information. At noon, Lin arrived at Jiulongtang Station to return to Chinese mainland by train with materials, but after deep thought, he decided to contact Democratic MP Ho Chun-yan, and held a press conference that night accompanied by Ho to explain the truth about his disappearance.
