Chapter 184 Standby Power Supply

"Mo Bing, He Qin must have been captured by the second mate!" Lu Ming looked at Mo Bing thoughtfully.

"Lu Ming, let's wait for Shaoyang to come back first!" Mo Bing saw that Lu Ming had lost some of his bearings, and hurriedly stabilized him and said.

I heard that He Qin was arrested by the second officer. Whether they knew her or not, everyone in the camp was in danger and started talking.

At this time, George returned with his companions.

They had a very good harvest, and in addition to two large fish, they also caught a tortoiseshell of more than 100 catties. The tortoiseshell was still alive, and when George and the crew put it down, it was still spreading its limbs trying to crawl away.

The meat of hawksbill turtles is nutritious and delicious. Such a large hawksbill turtle is enough for the entire camp to share a piece of meat.

But Lu Ming was not happy at all.

Hearing that He Qin was missing, George scrambled to find him, despite his fatigue.

"Now is not the time to be in a hurry. Lu Ming immediately stopped George.

Although He Qin is missing, he always has to eat. Eliza and the two women washed the wild vegetables, salted them, and made them into a vegetable salad.

The bird eggs that Bai Xiaoyi found were also made into a pot of egg drop soup, which was filled with seasoned vegetable leaves. Even the yellow and green look very appetizing.

Xiaobai, who was in charge of managing the warehouse, took out a few more naan and distributed them to everyone.

As for the fish and hawksbill turtles, they are ready to be packed up and eaten in the evening.

When Bai Xiaoyi brought the food to Lu Ming, Lu Ming shook his head and refused.

"Eat it, I won't eat it!"

"Lu Ming ......"

At this time, Liang Shaoyang and Ren Hongyi walked back from outside.

"Shaoyang, you're back. Lu Ming saw them from afar and immediately greeted them.

"Lu Ming, don't worry, take us to see where she disappeared. Liang Shaoyang also felt that the matter was a little serious.

"Shaoyang, what do you think?" Mo Bing saw Liang Shaoyang's eyebrows frowning slightly, and he didn't say a word, knowing that he must have felt troubled, so he asked.

"Second mate, why did they arrest He Qin, and what was their purpose in arresting people?" Liang Shaoyang asked faintly.

"Yes, why did they arrest He Qin?" Lu Ming was also stunned.

He Qin's robbery caused panic in the camp, but Liang Shaoyang's questioning calmed Lu Ming down.

"Shaoyang, do they want to use He Qin to blackmail us?" Mo Bing looked at Liang Shaoyang solemnly.

"Well, that's probably the case!" Liang Shaoyang nodded.

"He wants that phone?" Mo Bing asked softly.

"I don't think there's anything worth taking such a risk other than this phone!" Liang Shaoyang said in deep thought.

"But, how would they know that we picked up that phone?" Mo Bing looked at Liang Shaoyang in confusion.

When Ren Hongyi went into the water to get the live broadcast equipment, the bright light of the mobile phone call made him mistake it for the light from the waterproof flashlight, so he almost drowned.

It was George who saved him in time and picked up the satellite phone.

Only Ren Hongyi and George knew about this matter at that time.

At best, Henry, who was waiting outside, could hear George speak a few words.

But the second mate and his gang have been separated from them since they came to the island. The two classes never had much in common.

How did they hear about it?

Thinking of this, Mo Bing couldn't help but look at Liang Shaoyang suspiciously.

Liang Shaoyang motioned for her not to continue.

"Mr. Liang, please come over for a moment. At this time, Ren Hongyi shouted not far from them.

Liang Shaoyang gave Mo Bing and Lu Ming a look, and then strode towards Ren Hongyi.

"Someone should have been tricked!" Ren Hongyi said, pointing to a trap more than twenty meters away from the search crowd.

It was an ambush designed by Liang Shaoyang.

Just now, Liang Shaoyang once took Ren Hongyi around the island and pointed out to him the locations of some of the defense mechanisms he had designed. Unexpectedly, Ren Hongyi used it now.

In a pit, several sharpened wooden spikes had clotted blood on their heads. Someone must have accidentally stepped on it and punctured their calf.

People in the camp in this place will not come easily.

And Liang Shaoyang didn't hear about anyone in the camp who was hit by the trap.

"It must be the person who kidnapped He Qin who was tricked!" Ren Hongyi said to Liang Shaoyang in surprise.

"What else did you find?" Liang Shaoyang asked Ren Hongyi.

"They should have gone in that direction. And I also found this. ”

Ren Hongyi handed Liang Shaoyang a piece of cloth scraped off a branch for him to see.

"It's on He Qin's clothes!" Lu Ming took a look at it and said with certainty.

"He Qin will have no problem for the time being. Because the second mate probably only wanted to take hostages, otherwise they wouldn't have bothered to take her so far!" Liang Shaoyang looked around and said.

"What can you do?" Lu Ming asked suspiciously.

"Wait for them in the camp to negotiate the conditions!" Liang Shaoyang said calmly.

Since Liang Shaoyang said this, Lu Ming had no other way, although he was worried about He Qin in his heart, he could only take people back to the camp.

Now, the safety of the camp is given special attention.

Although the tourists did not know the specific reason, they were deeply frightened by He Qin's robbery.

"Don't panic, the second officer's gang of robbers doesn't have weapons, and there are few of them, as long as we all stay in the camp, there will be no danger!" Lu Ming calmed everyone's emotions.

As a security expert, Ren Hongyi immediately took action. He told them to cut down more small trees and build a protective wooden fence around the camp.

This operation was carried out very quickly.

Everyone in the camp took action, cutting down trees and making ropes in the scorching sun.

As the sun was about to set, a wooden fence more than two meters high was built around the camp.

The men also chopped some sticks the thickness of wine glasses to use as self-defense tools. Always ready to face the attack of the second mate's gang of pirates.

Lu Ming also spent a lot of effort to build a tower for lookout, leaning on a tall tree in the center of the camp.

The tower is located in the middle of a large tree branch, surrounded by a protective fence and a rain shelter. There are wooden ladders and rope ladders underneath for going up and down.

Standing on the watchtower, you can observe movement in the distance around the camp, and you can also monitor the situation in a large area of the sea.

Despite this, he was always worried about He Qin's safety. Therefore, there is a gloomy and worried look on his face.

Bai Xiaoyi saw it in her eyes, although she knew that it was reasonable for Lu Ming to worry about He Qin, but she was not very comfortable in her heart.

After persuading her once, she simply went to Mo Bing's tent.

"Bai Xiaoyi, I know that you are upset, because Brother Zheng is too worried about He Qin's safety and ignores you. As a woman, I understand

Your mood. Mo Bing pulled Bai Xiaoyi to sit down, and then whispered that she had already guessed the young girl's thoughts from Bai Xiaoyi's pale and haggard face and lost eyes.

"Sister Mo Bing, I don't know what's going on, anyway, I just feel very awkward in my heart. Actually, I'm very worried about He Qin. Bai Xiaoyi saw Mo Bing say this, and said embarrassedly.

"Bai Xiaoyi, I understand. I know what you're thinking. Mo Bing reassured.

"yes. Sister Mo Bing. It's that I'm thinking too much. He and I are husband and wife, how can we not trust him? I also know that it is impossible for him and He Qin to reunite. Seeing Mo Bing say this, Bai Xiaoyi's mood suddenly brightened, and a smile bloomed on her face.

"Hmm. Now that we are facing a crisis, at this time, we should work together and trust each other!" Mo Bing said meaningfully.

Just now, Mo Bing, Liang Shaoyang, and Ren Hongyi were discussing how to deal with the second mate's group of pirates.

"If the second mate really wants to exchange He Qin for that phone, what should we do?" Mo Bing looked at Liang Shaoyang solemnly, wanting to hear his opinion.

According to her own thoughts, this call cannot be given to the second mate. Because he'll use the phone to call his accomplices.

Moreover, she also imagined that if the live broadcast equipment could not connect to the satellite signal and could not reach her good friend, she would take the risk of using this phone to contact her good friend and tell her about the situation.

"The second mate must be exchanged, and we can promise them. Liang Shaoyang seemed to have made up his mind.

"But they'll use the phone to contact their accomplices. Mo Bing was still worried

"Huh. We give them the phone, and he doesn't necessarily have access to it. As long as the power of the satellite phone is consumed, how can he make calls?" Liang Shaoyang said with a chuckle.

"But, they can go to the boat to recharge. There is still backup power on board. Ren Hongyi said anxiously.

"Isn't that just right?" Liang Shaoyang said with a smile.

"Huh?" Ren Hongyi opened his mouth wide and looked at Liang Shaoyang in confusion.

Next, Liang Shaoyang told Mo Bing and Ren Hongyi about his plan.

"So, I think George and the crew are a little suspicious. Ren Hongyi thought of Mike, who suddenly disappeared and then came back, and Henry, who obviously saw the second mate but didn't tell the truth.

"George is not in contact with the second mate. This can be seen from this incident. So I think He Qin's robbery is also a good thing. As the so-called fishing in troubled waters, as long as we don't mess up, we will definitely see people's hearts. Liang Shaoyang said resolutely.

Outside the tent of Mo Bing.

George was distributing food to everyone in the camp.

He and four crew members caught several sea fish and a large tortoiseshell.

But he didn't leave an extra copy for himself according to the hunting rules specified by Lu Ming and Mo Bing. Instead, the fish and the delicious tortoiseshell meat were divided equally among everyone in the shelter.

This move made him gain the favor and respect of most tourists, including Lu Ming.

"What a generous man Mr. George!"

"Yes, he is hardworking and enthusiastic, and he has a very humble attitude, like a true gentleman. ”

"I wish Mr. George would be our leader, not the pretending leader. Chacha said openly and unabashedly while eating the meat.

Liang Shaoyang saw George come in and struggled to sit up, but was pressed down by Mo Bing on the bed made of canvas recliners.
