Chapter 141: Pirates
On the rough sea, there was a small lifeboat speeding towards Lin Han's side, and the sound of people shouting could be faintly heard.
"Go over and see. Lin Han said.
Donald's face was a little solemn, and he steered the speedboat and quickly met the lifeboat, causing a wave behind the boat.
The distance between the two was rapidly shortened, and with Lin Han's ears, he could already clearly hear that the people on the lifeboat were trying their best to call for help.
βHelpββHelpοΌβ
Lin Han frowned, looked into the distance, and immediately found that behind the lifeboat, there was another boat faintly, which was very fast, and seemed to be chasing the lifeboat.
At this time, Donald obviously also noticed the clipper behind the lifeboat, and his face turned pale: "Lin, this may be an Indonesian pirate, there are only two of us, let's go back, the coast guard will take care of this." β
Pirate!
With Lin Han's top physical fitness, coupled with the fighting skills he learned from Yang Zhuo, and the ability to manipulate the wind granted by the intermediate meteorological authority, if he was just an ordinary hooligan ruffian, he would definitely kill as many as he came, without losing blood.
But pirates are different, although they also belong to a branch of hooligans in a broad sense, but people are hooligans with guns, and they are not afraid of death.
Not only guns, but even machine guns, bazookas, and artillery if they are more powerful pirates......
No matter how powerful Lin Han was, he didn't get out of the realm of flesh and blood, and he didn't dare to collide with guns.
Just when he was a little reluctant, a Chinese sentence suddenly came from the lifeboat: "Help! Help!"
Are there Chinese?
Lin Han's mind turned sharply, and then he looked at the ship chasing in the distance, and immediately said: "The pirate ship is still far from here, let's hurry over now and pick up the people on the lifeboat to the ship, they shouldn't be able to catch up." β
Donald was still scared, and his face turned pale: "It's too dangerous, if you catch up, you won't even lose your life." β
Lin Han said: "I'll help you pay off the rest of your mortgage!"
"This ...... I ......"
Donald hesitated for a long time, his face changed for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and showed a decisive expression: "For justice, fight!"
"Tom ......"
As soon as the words fell, the speedboat was at full speed, galloping to the lifeboat in front, and the waves behind the boat were surging and undulating.
......
"Captain, it looks like another ship is approaching!"
A pirate armed with a rifle came to the bow of the ship and said to Sukarno.
Captain Sukarno, the pirate leader, had a Papuan face, a short, thick beard, and a scar at the corner of his eye that slanted to the chin and looked rather fierce.
The Papuans are an ethnic minority in Indonesia, and in the eyes of the Chinese, they are basically the same as the blacks, perhaps with a lighter complexion.
Hearing this, Sukarno just picked up the telescope hanging from his chest and looked at the sea in the distance.
After a while, he put down the binoculars, and he snorted: "It's just a broken boat with only two people, if you dare to come over and stir up trouble, let them and those four damn ghosts die in the sea together!"
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
......
On the lifeboat, there were four people sitting at this time, and the most advanced of them was Chen Zhixian.
In addition to him, there were two Chinese and one East Timorese on board, one of whom was wounded in the arm, and the clothes wrapped in the wound had been stained red with blood.
The four of them were all embarrassed, and Chen Zhixian's face was also full of disgrace, and his eyes were full of despair.
It's over, it's all over!
He never expected that the Indonesian pirates, who rarely patronized the area near the Timor Sea, would actually encounter him head-on today.
What's even more unfortunate is that these pirates are obviously not "thieves and thieves", each with a gun, and they are all extremely vicious.
Chen Zhixian's cargo ship, along with all the goods, was all robbed by pirates. And because of the head-on conflict, his crew also suffered many casualties.
If it hadn't been for the pirates counting the goods and escaping in lifeboats, it would have been difficult to predict what would have happened to them.
Even so, the lifeboat is now in a very dangerous situation. The ship chasing them behind them was a speedboat specially sent by the pirates, and it was much faster than the small boat with four people.
"Boss!
At this moment, the East Timorese on the boat suddenly showed excitement and pointed ahead.
"What?"
The remaining three were all in good spirits, and hurriedly raised their eyes to look, and then saw a speeding speedboat.
"Could it be the Australian Coast Guard?"
With the power of the Timorese government, the possibility of a coast guard deployment is too low unless it is on land.
The most likely to save them is either the Australian Coast Guard or a large fleet with strong defensive forces.
However, they were soon stunned.
What is the Australian Coast Guard, it's just a speedboat, and there are only two people on it.
But Chen Zhixian reacted immediately, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up, as long as you board the speedboat, the pirates should not be able to catch up with us!"
Now, anyway, the hope of survival has become greater. The speedboat in front of them is tantamount to a life-saving straw for them, and they naturally have to desperately grasp it.
They immediately turned the bow of the boat, faced the speedboat, and met it head-on.
The two ships quickly approached, Chen Zhixian quickly noticed Lin Han, and hurriedly shouted: "Brother, I am Chinese, the pirates behind have taken my ship and are about to chase after me, please save us." β
Lin Han said: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get on the speedboat, it's still too late to get rid of the pirates." β
"Okay, get on board!"
The two boats approached, and four people in the lifeboat quickly boarded the speedboat.
The speedboat originally had six seats, and it was not crowded with four people, but the injured Chinese was already a little pale due to excessive blood loss, and it was a little troublesome.
"There's a first aid kit on board, you guys should help him bandage it. β
"Donald, head full speed toward the Divi Islands!"
The Divi Islands are the closest archipelago to the Northern Territory of Australia, and to the south is the capital city of Darwin, which is more than enough to deal with wild pirates.
"Tom ......"
The speedboat sped and quickly cut through the waves.
On the speeding speedboat, the pirates behind seemed to start getting farther and farther away, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
The speedboat found by BHP is reliable.
Lin Han asked the four people at this time: "Tell me what's going on." β
Chen Zhixian sighed and told the ins and outs of the matter: "My name is Chen Zhixian, and I am a Chinese ...... from Lauteng Province, East Timor."
"You're in conflict with the pirates?"
Chen Zhixian nodded: "These pirates should be outlaws who have fled from Indonesia, they see that we have no self-defense power, and as soon as they open their mouths, they want ships, otherwise they will even need their lives." β
"A lot of the crew were very angry, and then there was a conflict, and someone blinded one of the pirates, and the blind pirate seemed to be the brother of their leader, and then, hey......"
Chen Zhixian said in the end, his face was very depressed, he covered his face with his hands, let out a long sigh, and his voice was faintly choked.
When Lin Han heard this, he didn't say anything, just patted him on the shoulder to show comfort.
Seeing that Chen Zhixian didn't react, he said, "Where are your ancestors?"
Chen Zhixian was silent for a while, still covering his face with his hands, and then said: "My ancestral home is Dongguang Province, China, and the university was also studied in Huagong in Dongguang Province. β
Lin Han nodded: "What major did you study?"
"Electronics, but also economics and trade. β
Lin Han was surprised: "Double degree, so powerful." β
Before Chen Zhixian could say anything, the speedboat under everyone made a strange sound like asthma, and its speed plummeted.
"What's going on?!"
Donald was sweating profusely: "It doesn't seem to be ...... Out of gas. β
Lin Han hurriedly asked, "This was originally a six-person boat, why did it run out of fuel so quickly?"
"For the past two days, the two of us have been sitting alone, and I haven't filled up the gas...... Besides, the ship has been sailing for a while......"
