Chapter 3 [Arrival]
Westport, Cambodia.
As the only natural deep-water port in the country, it occupies an important trade position and is also a hot city for foreign investors.
Since the beginning of the past few years, the economic development of Westport has taken off.
But all this has made many locals in Westport feel uneasy and palpitating.
This is not Las Vegas, and it is not Macau.
However, Chinese casinos are everywhere, and in the richly decorated casinos, exquisite and bright chandeliers hang on the ceiling, and the guests are noisy and lively.
Cigarettes accumulate in the air, smoke swirling.
Neat fruit bowls are placed on the plate for the gamblers inside.
Baccarat is in full swing, with stacks of exciting hundred-dollar bills on the table, as well as all kinds of screams.
This is today's Westport.
Some people call it Shenzhen in the late 80s, where you can get everything you want.
Among them, a steady stream of foreign investors, most of whom are Chinese, have invested in large resorts, hotels, restaurants and shops.
It's like a village that has suddenly risen up, and it instantly becomes extremely dazzling.
Smack.
Qi Xiaogou looked at the night scene of the city with emotion, and said, "It's really a familiar taste." ”
Liang Fu pushed the frame of his glasses and said in a low voice: "The reason why this city has developed rapidly in recent years is inseparable from the economic benefits brought by these casinos. ”
Dong Ergou said in a hoarse voice: "I have found out clearly, Liao Jianxiong privately registered a company when he came. ”
"If nothing else, he should still follow his old path and launder money. ”
Qi Xiaopu laughed jokingly: "If you have eaten a fishy cat, how can you say that you will quit, it is estimated that you found that this side is also very suitable for making money, so you can't help but fall into it again." ”
At this time, Zhong Xujie suddenly walked over in a hurry.
He said nervously: "The news from Vietnam came out, Kunlun Island was rectified, and most of the members of that transnational criminal group were arrested, but the leader and mastermind escaped by helicopter. ”
Zhong Xujie said in a solemn tone: "The main thing is that the old man who was sniped is fake. ”
As soon as these words fell, everyone was stunned.
"Fake?"
"What's going on?"
Liang Fu's heart sank slightly, this news was indeed a little sudden, he took out his mobile phone and tried to log in to foreign websites to search for news in Vietnam.
Sure enough, there were relevant reports, after all, there was a shootout in the port, and the movement on Kunlun Island was so big that it couldn't be concealed at all.
He muttered with a complicated expression: "It seems that we left too early and missed a play!"
"Old Man Mo actually prepared for a long time and arranged a stand-in in advance!"
Everybody is studying the news.
On the other side, Qi Xiaogou had an idea and said, "Master Dong, do we want to get a casino or something here?"
Dong Ergou's eyebrows furrowed vigorously, this matter can be big or small, once it takes root and involves a wide range of people, the most important thing is to open a casino, which is completely different from stepping on the field.
No matter how you step on the field, you are still a guest, and at most you will make a sum of money and leave.
If you talk about opening a casino, it is equivalent to competing openly and grabbing turf.
"There's no need, let's re-connect with Liao Jianxiong's line first!" Liang Fu directly and simply rejected this plan.
"What's more, I've read all the news in Vietnam and China, and there is no mention of Chinese fugitives, so it's likely that Sun Yuan escaped this catastrophe. ”
Liang Fu said seriously: "Find Liao Jianxiong, communicate more with the people in Baishui Mountain, and contact Brother Sun as soon as possible." ”
Qi Xiaogou scratched his head, in fact, he was also so casual.
I came to this kind of place, and I always felt a little unpleasant when I didn't touch two handfuls at the gaming table.
……
Suddenly.
Two days passed.
At the pier of Port P in Bangkok, a nondescript cargo ship slowly docks.
A large blue container was dropped by a crane in the warehouse of the port, waiting for someone to come and transport it.
It was about late in the evening, just when everyone had dinner.
The car slowly drove into the dock, and then in the name of receiving the goods, it came to the warehouse with many freight boxes stacked.
The driver was dressed in a suit and sunglasses, like a professional driver.
Ethan made his way to Section B carefully, and at a glance he saw the container box that had fallen on the edge, covered with gray blackout cloth.
The car slowly stopped next to it.
The back seat opened, and a man stepped out of it.
Chen Dong wore a hat to cover most of his face, and he put on a fake beard, so that even if he was caught by the camera, he could not identify him.
He glanced at Ethan and opened the container.
The harsh sound of metal grinding and scraping.
The inside of the container was completely empty, except for a chair stuck to the box, and a person who couldn't move.
The dazzling light made Sun Yuan open his eyes in a daze, and he half-squinted.
Two people were found walking towards him.
He swallowed a mouthful of water with thirsty lips, and his whole state was very bad, and he had been floating for seven or eight days, and although the waves did not break the boat, they also turned over.
As a result, the food he prepared was swallowed by the waves.
The days that followed were difficult and harsh survival challenges, and he was no longer too impressed by how he was rescued from the ship.
Sun Yuan looked at the two people in a trance, and his eyes fell on the man in the suit.
Suddenly it felt familiar.
However, the moment Chen Dong took off his mask, Sun Yuan's eyes widened suddenly.
"Is that you?"
His voice was very dry and hoarse due to chronic lack of water.
Ethan consciously closed the door of the large container and stared through the gap to prevent accidents.
Chen Dong found that Sun Yuan's eyes were a little wary and defensive of himself, and he was not a stranger.
It's more like having some kind of misunderstanding about yourself!
However, even so, after Chen Dong confirmed that the other party's face was not disguised as a human skin mask, he still decisively released the rope for the other party.
Sun Yuan gritted his teeth and turned over and snatched the gun hidden in Chen Dong's waist, and then pointed at him.
The atmosphere instantly fell into inexplicable tension.
Even Ethan was stunned, he thought that the other party and the boss should be in the same group, how could this happen?
Chen Dong seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and raised his hand with a smile and said, "I surrender, say it, you know something." ”
He is very calm and calm, and since taking over this difficult task and deciding to enter the prison to fight against a group of felons on death row, his mentality has changed subtly.
When you're prepared for an extremely brutal environment, all other small twists and turns are insignificant.
