366. Survivors
Although the face of the third deceased was cracked and deformed, there was a discrepancy with the appearance of the person's ID photo.
However, based on several features on the deceased's body described by the deceased's family, the investigation team determined that the deceased was the crew member on the registration form.
This person's name is Fan Qiang, 28 years old, from other provinces, he went to university in this province, and after graduation, he entered a factory in this province to work.
In the middle of the month, he suddenly called home and said that the factory wages were too low, and he was going to sea as a crew member, and if he couldn't be contacted, he would find his emergency contact.
As for his emergency contact, it was also a crew member on the same ship as him on the registration form.
Two of the three deceased have been identified, but the true nature of the situation requires the discovery of the survivor who is still in hospital.
The survivor's name is Hong Tao, male, from the city next door, 2 years old this year, and has not yet graduated from university.
Before dawn the next day, Xiao Ran, Luo Ying and others drove to the hospital in the next city, and a few hours later, Xiao Ran saw this thin young man who was a year older than him.
The man was still wrapped in bandages on his head, lying on the bed with a drip, and his parents were by his bedside, looking quite normal, and probably did not have an in-depth understanding of the danger that Hong Tao had encountered.
"Hello Hong Tao, we are from the Lin'an Public Security Bureau, looking for you to learn about the situation of Dongyu A619. Xiao Ran and the others explained their intentions.
Hong Tao's face showed a little nervousness, and he hurriedly asked: "You are here to arrest me?—— I didn't break the law, I didn't know in advance that they were going to do this, I was forced to be helpless, you should go to the boat boss and them!"
Xiao Ran blinked, and instead of answering Hong Tao's question directly, he asked instead, "So, this is the reason why you didn't choose to call the police after you were rescued?"
Hong Tao was speechless for a while, and said timidly: "The boat has an accident, everyone on it is finished, and I am the only one who survived, so what's the point of reporting to the police or not?"
"Except that you're all done? How do you know?" Xiao Ran sat down and asked, it seemed that Hong Tao didn't know the real reason for the accident on the boat they were on.
Hong Tao palpitated and said: "I feel that they can't survive, the boat boss didn't have time to run out, a few of us ran out, if I wasn't lucky enough to be rescued by a passing boat, I would have to die." ”
Seeing that He Nai wrote down Hong Tao's answer, Xiao Ran did not continue to ask, "Tell me about Dongyu A619, from how you were hired on the ship, until you were rescued after the accident, and tell us completely." ”
Hong Tao put a few pillows behind him, sat up and leaned on it, he recalled for a while with a complicated expression, and said regretfully: "I shouldn't have listened to that stupid intermediary!"
It turned out that Hong Tao was studying at a junior college, and he had to go out for an internship in his junior year.
He initially went to a company that came to the school to find people, but the company recruited by the school was too tricky, and he couldn't do it, so he resigned and returned to the school, intending to find another way.
Seeing that the salary accumulated in a few months is about to bottom out, and looking for a job is often unsatisfactory, Hong Tao has strong self-esteem and does not want to ask his parents for living expenses.
At the beginning of the month, he heard from an employment agency that he could earn a lot of money as a seafarer, and Hong Tao, who was desperate to make quick money, was so excited that he wanted to try it, but he had no relevant experience, so he could only ask the agent to help him pay attention to it.
"Who is the person in charge of contacting you, and where is the employment agency?" Xiao Ran asked.
Hong Tao thought for a while and said, "Just across from the south gate of a vocational college, the name is Ideal Recruitment, and the person in charge of contacting me is called Cao." ”
Xiao Ran wrote down this information and motioned for Hong Tao to continue.
"On the morning of the 7th of this month, Cao suddenly called me and said that a ship was in a hurry to recruit seafarers to go to sea, and the salary was good, so I went over, and saw that the ship was quite big, and it was going to sign a contract, which was quite formal, so it was settled. ”
Hong Tao recalled: "Then someone gave me a seafarer training manual and a crew card, and asked us to go back and put the photo on it ourselves, and write our names, but I asked them if they should bring it when they went to sea, and they said that it was okay to bring it with or not." ”
"Is this a crew certificate? Do you know the people on it?"
Shan Yuerou showed He Ping'an's crew card to Hong Tao, but Hong Tao didn't know He Ping'an, but he was sure that this card was exactly the same as the crew card issued to him by the captain of Dongyu A619.
After Hong Tao signed the contract, the captain told him to go back and wait for the notice to board the ship, and then go to sea when everyone was ready.
Hong Tao thought that he might have to wait for two days, but that night, Hong Tao received a call from the people on the boat, telling him to rush to the assembly site and prepare to go to sea.
"After I had passed, and when we arrived, the boat boss suddenly told us that we were not boarding at the pier, so he put the eight of us in a van, and after turning around to a small pier somewhere, he let us get on the boat. ”
"After the anchor was lifted, the boat boss asked us to register our information, then set up emergency contacts with each other, and asked us to send a message to our families, saying that this was for our safety," Hong Tao said.
None of us have been to sea, and we believe it. There were fourteen of us on board, eight of us were newcomers, and the remaining six, one captain and one cook. The other four were all in league with the captain, and they were the accomplices. ”
"Then you've seen this person, right?" Shan Yuerou took out Fan Qiang's photo.
Hong Tao looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "Yes, this is one of our newcomers, what's the name?" - You've found him, is he still alive?"
"He's not as lucky as you. Xiao Ran took the photo and handed it to Shan Yuerou.
"I feel that I will never go to the sea again in my life, floating alone on the sea, lying on the surface of the water and looking at the vast water, that feeling of fear and despair, I passed by the bridge when I came to the hospital, and I was afraid that the bridge would suddenly collapse and I would fall into the water again......"
Hong Tao said leisurely, his state at this time did not match the meaning of his name at all, "After we went to sea, I learned when we arrived at the place that this boat was not going to fish at all, but to go into the water to catch things." ”
"The captain told us that there was a shipwreck under the seabed, and this time he went to sea to find the porcelain in the shipwreck, and he first went into the water to demonstrate, and fished a complete plate, saying that it was 500 yuan to catch a complete object like this, and a person could fish at least ten or eight a day, and he could make more than 10,000 yuan a day if he did a good job. ”
Hong Tao recounted the situation at that time: "Some of us have red eyes when they hear that they can make more than 10,000 yuan a day, but I know something about the sea, and when I look at the diving suits prepared by the captain, I know that that thing is not resistant to pressure, and I will definitely not be able to stand it after a long time, maybe something will happen." ”
"It turns out that I guessed correctly, the first person who tried to go down didn't know this, the dive was too long, and when he came up, not only did he not catch anything, but he almost didn't survive. ”
