0103 To the Pirate Kingdom (2)
Hou Rui didn't talk nonsense, he directly took off the robe prepared for him by the leader of the Brotherhood, as well as the clothes he wore when he accompanied Jin Shanshan at the beginning, and threw them into the sea, and after changing into the robe handed to him by Ba Bru, Hou Rui only had a mobile phone, a bracelet and a 9mm self-defense pistol on his body.

After silently changing the flag hoisted by the tin boat from Egypt to Sudan's, the black man Baburu crossed the border with Hou Rui.
At the same time, among the embassies in Egypt and Cairo.
"My boyfriend, my fiancé has been kidnapped for 24 hours. With red-eyed eyes and a haggard and angry look, Jin Shanshan was roaring with the embassy clerk.
"We can understand your feelings, but now there is a transnational kidnapping, this is an international affair, it is not so simple to deal with, you have to believe in us, you have to believe that the country will not give up on rescuing any citizen. The embassy clerk is still trying to reassure Jin Shanshan.
"I believe you, then you should go to the police in Cairo, look for the kidnappers, what's the use of just sitting here and watching me. Jin Shanshan's voice raised a few points, after more than ten hours of telling and questioning, Jin Shanshan's voice had long been hoarse, and now it hurt to tear Lala as soon as she opened her mouth, but the urgent Jin Shanshan couldn't take care of herself anymore, and now she just wanted to save Hou Rui.
"We have contacted the Cairo police, but the kidnappers have not yet contacted the Cairo police, and we don't have a clue yet. As far as we know, it's not the first time that the Muslim Brotherhood has kidnapped Western tourists near the attractions, and they usually demand ransom, so the safety of the hostages is still guaranteed in a short time, you can rest assured, eat something and rest, so that we can think long and see how to rescue your fiancé. The embassy clerk's words can't be said to be unreasonable, but it's a pity that he is not the party in the end, and he can't understand the helplessness and anger of the little policeman watching Hou Rui being kidnapped from his eyes.
"Then according to your meaning, the only thing I can do now is to wait stupidly?"
"It's a bit passive, but that's actually the case, and you can rest assured that we'll always be there for you. ”
Hearing this, Jin Shanshan seemed to lose all the strength of her body at once, she sat on the sofa softly, and kept praying in her heart: "Monkey, Hou Rui, you must stop, even if you spend all your inheritance, even if you want to sell the house in China, I must redeem you!"
……
"Hello!" Despite bathing in the warm African sun, Hou Rui, who had changed his clothes, couldn't help but sneeze, and then Hou Rui just put his snot-stained hands into the sea to wash them off, and Baburu, who had been operating the boat, said: "The wounds on your arms are many and deep, you need to pay more attention, in case of infection, you will die, and the area you are going to will not even have a hospital." ”
"I know, can you get an antibiotic?" Hou Rui looked at the tooth marks on his arm, the upper and lower rows, this is the masterpiece of the Nile crocodile, if it weren't for a big stone separating the Nile crocodile's teeth, this arm would probably be almost digested.
"Not on the boat, get off the boat and get some for you!" replied the black man lightly.
"How long are we going to drive?" Hou Rui looked at the distant peaks on both sides of the strait and changed the subject.
"It will take about 4-5 hours before we can enter the Gulf of Aden, and you see in front, those cargo ships that have anchored are waiting for their own warships to accompany them. ”
"If you don't say it, I almost forgot that there is the famous pirate kingdom in front of me. Hou Rui looked at several freighters more than a dozen nautical miles away, all of them flying American flags.
"Come help me. As he spoke, the black man handed over the rudder of the tin boat to Hou Rui's hand, and then Baburu replaced the Sudanese flag with a two-color Djibouti flag with a lone star, which was considered to be another country, and it was one step closer to the goal of Hou Rui's mission.
As the sun set, the small tin boat finally reached the Somali waters of the Gulf of Aden. The black man Baburu also quickly put away the Djibouti flag hanging on the pole, but this time the black man did not hang any other flags, leaving a bare flagpole.
"Don't you need to fly the Somali flag?" Hou Rui asked curiously, looking at Baburu's movements.
"This is a place of chaos, it's useless to hang any flag, keep your eyes open! After speaking, the big black man Baburu took out an AK47 rifle from a hidden compartment of the tin boat, and then hung the gun around his neck generously.
"Wouldn't that be too high-profile?" Hou Rui asked, pointing to the AK on Baburu's chest.
"High-profile! You'll understand in a moment. But Bablu clearly didn't want to say more.
The tin boat drove for a while, and it was already dark by this time, but as the tin boat gradually approached the shore, the number of local fishing boats that appeared next to Hou Rui and Baburu inevitably increased.
When a two-man wooden fishing boat passed by Hou Rui and them, a brief glance at Hou Rui finally understood the meaning of the words of the black man Ba Bru;
From Hou Rui's point of view, on the wooden fishing boat, two dark-skinned locals sat leisurely rowing on the horizontal board of the cabin, and under their feet were a large pile of fishing nets, and in the fishing nets was a boatload of fresh fish, but when Hou Rui went to see the appearance of the two fishermen, he was surprised to find that one of the two fishermen was carrying an AK47 and the other was carrying an RPG bazooka, which was completely dressed like a sea guerrilla.
"Is this ......?" asked Hou Rui in disbelief.
"People here usually make a living from fishing, but once they see an opportunity to put down their oars and nets, they are elite pirates, and they can get $20 to $1 million for robbing or seizing a freighter, which is much faster than fishing. ”
After listening to Baburu's words, Hou Rui went to observe other fishing boats nearby, and immediately saw all kinds of firearms. Now Hou Rui understands why Baburu blatantly hangs AK around his neck, it turns out that in this chaotic country, guns are already a necessary guarantee for passage.
After another hour, the tin boat finally came to shore in the night, a secluded beach, not far from only 3-4 dilapidated wooden houses, presumably a depressed fishing village.
The black man tied the tin boat to a reef, and then used a fishing net to fish out all the fresh fish left in the fish tank, filled a few plastic boxes, and then he and Hou Rui carried the fish to a wooden house at the very edge of the fishing village, where a light had already been lit, and it was estimated that someone was waiting for them.
When Baburu opened the door and walked in, Hou Rui, who had been secretly on guard, realized that what was waiting for Baburu in the wooden house was actually a woman and two young children.
"I'm back. Baburu, who was in the door, said something in Somali language, and then the two children who looked at the 6-7 year old ran out first, hugging Baburu's thighs one by one, hiding behind but looking at Hou Rui alive. And the woman also quickly walked up, and while taking the plastic box in Hou Rui's hands, she was talking to Baburu about something, but unfortunately Hou Rui couldn't understand a word.
In the middle of the night, the woman brought out dinner for Hou Rui and Baburu, just some fish stew and corn paste, and a large plate of fresh fruit.
After a simple meal of fruit, Hou Rui automatically and consciously left the wooden house, he found a coconut tree with a crooked neck on the seaside facing the Gulf of Aden and climbed up, preparing to spend his first night in the pirate kingdom on the tree.
Not long after, the big black man Ba Bru also left the cabin, and he took a bottle of wine and sat down under the crooked neck coconut tree where Hou Rui was hiding.
"Give, antibiotics. As he spoke, Baburu threw a small white medicine bottle to Hou Rui, who shook it after receiving it, estimating that there were about 3-40 tablets in it.
"Thank you!" said politely.
"You're welcome, $500. Baburu directly quoted the price of the bottle.
"......" Hou Rui, who had long been accustomed to the fact that everything in the organization was traded according to money, didn't say much, he directly poured out three pills and threw them into his mouth.
"Mission Description, Lonely, Mission Objective: Eliminate General Garcia hiding in southern Somalia, Mission time, half a year. What else do you want to know?" Baburu said to Hou Rui in the tree after pouring a large sip of wine into his mouth, facing the sea, but in fact he was talking to Hou Rui in the tree.
"How do I confirm the identity of the other person?"
"General Garcia is from a southern mountain tribe, he has been the commander of the militia and guerrillas before, and he has never exposed himself in the media, so it can be said that before he became the general of the alliance, no one paid attention to him at all, so the organization did not have a photo of him, not even a general portrait. As for the method of identifying the target, it's up to you, but I can tell you that General Garcia is rumored to be a cripple who has been injured in one of his legs by a government mine. ”
“…… What is the approximate location of the target?"
"From here, 100 kilometres south, most of the area is within the reach of Garcia's Union of Somali Libertadores, and he could be hiding anywhere. ”
"......" did not have a clear answer to the two most critical questions, which made Hou Rui have a new estimate of the difficulty of this mission, when leaving Egypt and leaving Jin Shanshan, Hou Rui was ready to come and go, but now after briefly understanding the details of the mission, Hou Rui suddenly felt that he really had no chance to return to China.
