11. Brother you sit on the bow of the boat

Under the moonlight.

Vehicles are driving at high speed on straight roads. All sorts of weird news are coming out of the car radio.

The riots in H City continued to expand, and the fall of the airport soon made the news. But that's just the tip of the iceberg of a big mess.

In fact, not only H City, but also Southeast Asia, southeastern China, and many important cities in Japan have erupted in very similar riots.

Perhaps because so many people are connecting with each other, the mobile phone network is paralyzed. Lu Rulan tried several times before she succeeded in sending an email to her cousin Su He's email address.

Two minutes later, news suddenly came out on the radio - a number of trains had encountered danger during the operation, and the front had lost contact with the control room.

Different from the chaos and panic of the outside world, the sports car that Lu Rulan was riding in has been moving smoothly, and the right hand of the driver Haichen and Lu Rulan's left hand are handcuffed and tightly connected.

At the end of the silence, Lu Rulan couldn't help but ask, "...... Are you going to rush to see your family. ”

Haichen stared intently at the road ahead: "Why do you want to look." ”

"What else is there for this? Don't you worry about them? ”

"Don't worry." The young officer still had an unmoved expression on his face.

Lu Rulan couldn't stand it anymore: "Just ask your family to buy you such an expensive car, it's not appropriate for you to say that, right?" ”

"Yes." Haichen replied ambiguously, "The car money is my father's inheritance. ”

Lu Rulan chuckled in her heart, secretly thinking that who knew that there was such a thing in your family, but she still apologized obediently: "I'm sorry, I don't know...... What about your mother? ”

"It's long gone. The relatives wanted to divide my father's inheritance, and my mother fought with them for several years. The inheritance was eventually preserved, and her body collapsed. ”

Haichen still stared straight ahead, understating it, as if this qiē was just something that happened in someone else's house.

Lu Rulan peeked at Haichen's side face, and felt that this young anti-smuggling policeman, who had only known him for less than three hours, didn't seem to be as annoying as he was just now.

He tried to get close to him: "Your mother is quite similar to my mother, and my mother also supported a family alone. But my family is much poorer than yours, and if it weren't for that, I wouldn't have signed a ten-year deed of sale with that broken economic company for hundreds of thousands of yuan......"

"I know."

Haichen's answer surprised Lu Rulan.

"Actually, your mother's family is still quite a scholarly family. But she eloped with your dad back then, and your dad was a drunken and gambling loser, and soon lost all his family property. Then your dad slipped away, and he couldn't find it. ”

"Damn, how do you know this?!"

Lu Rulan suddenly made a loud alarm: "And I was in the airport before, how did you know about my high school days?!" These things, even the fans of the year would never know! ”

Speaking of excitement, he even waved his hand, which frightened Haichen to stabilize the steering wheel.

"If you have something to say, don't do it!"

"I want your explanation! How the hell do you know so much about me! ”

The car shivered on the highway, and finally came down steadily.

Haichen nodded Lu Rulan's temple: "The answer is in your head, you can't remember it yourself, tell me how faceless I am?!" ”

"But ......"

Lu Rulan was not satisfied with this answer, he vaguely felt that Haichen should be someone he knew when he was in school. But at that time, he followed his mother all the way to avoid debts, and he couldn't count the schools he had borrowed and studied on one hand, so he would still have an impression of his classmates at that time.

Not to mention, Haichen is obviously still one or two years older.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and he simply stopped thinking about it.

"Okay, I'll let you drive in peace for now. But if one day I do remember it, you can't deny it! ”

"Yes."

"One more thing."

"What?"

"The suitcase with the drugs in it, it's really not mine. I'm not a drug dealer! ”

"I know."

Haichen was still looking at the road ahead, but a smile flashed in his eyes.

"You were so jealous and hateful when you were a child, how could you do such a hurtful thing when you grow up."

“……”

Lu Rulan was stunned, and suddenly turned her gaze to the front in a hurry, muttering, "Then you made it difficult for me just now!" ”

"Emotions are emotions, laws are laws. After the investigation, the innocent person will eventually regain his innocence. ”

With that, Hychen slowed down and left the highway at the nearest ramp.

"We're coming."

As if he was annotating Haichen's words, the road that had been stretching forward slowly turned a corner, and the night in front of him suddenly brightened.

Lu Rulan's eyes widened.

"It's the sea!"

On the left side of the road, under the steep slope is an undulating breakwater. Farther away, the sea is dark and vast.

H City is located on the west side of the estuary, and the East China Sea is located along the river to the east.

The sports car continued along the straight and wide road by the sea, and it didn't take long for a pier to appear in front of it. The high and low street lights and the lights of the buildings mingle with each other, but what is more striking is the boats moored at the pier, like sleeping whales.

Haichen slowed down and drove into a factory area on the dock, and an old man ran out of the communication room at the door, walked to the vehicle and leaned down.

Haichen lowered the window: "Uncle Fu, is it okay?" ”

The old man replied, "It's peaceful here, but I've heard that there's a big mess outside, and even the airport is ...... Are you okay? ”

"I'm fine." Haichen nodded, "Uncle Fu, you hurry up and call everyone to come to the office hall." ”

The old man answered, and went back to the communication room to make a call. Haichen drove the car into the factory and parked under a small two-story building.

"Get out of the car."

"Wait!" Lu Rulan refused to move, "What about the key?" Key! ”

"I guess I can't find it." Haichen stretched out his hands, "You wait." ”

As he spoke, he fumbled and touched from his pocket, pulled out a new five-dollar bill, folded it at an acute angle, and began to poke the keyhole.

After about a minute, with a slight "click", the cuffs opened.

"It's that simple?!" Lu Rulan was dumbfounded: "What did you do earlier!" ”

"Don't move!" Haichen grabbed his wrist and poked another keyhole, "This is also technical work, and you can't do it in a hurry." ”

Soon, both keyholes were poked open. Lu Rulan hurriedly rubbed her wrist that was tortured, turned around and opened the door and got out of the car.

"What kind of place is this?"

"My shipyard. I used to go fishing, but now it's just a boat charter company. ”

Haichen explained lightly while leading Lu Rulan forward.

Lu Rulan soon discovered that the "land" under his feet was actually just a jetty pier that stretched into the sea. The docks are flanked on either side by tall docks with rounded roofs, apparently where ships are parked.

He couldn't help but ask, "How many ships are there here?" ”

"I don't know. I only know that there used to be two engineering boats on the water, a few general cargo ships, and a little more fishing boats. However, in recent years, the yacht charter business has been relatively good, so it has been updated a lot. ”

“…… It's all like this, why are you still a policeman? ”

"This is a family business, that's a volunteer, how can it be compared."

"If I want to have such a family business, I will eat and wait for death every day, travel the world, and take money to stone those who deserve to die."

As he spoke, the two walked to the door of the office hall.

There were already four or five left-behind employees sitting in the open hall, all with their heads up, staring at the news on the suspended televisions.

Haichen led Lu Rulan over and said hello to those people briefly. waited for Uncle Fu and the rest of the people to come over, and then began to get down to business.

"Everyone has seen it, and I'm afraid this time it's really powerful. We just arrived from the airport, and it's no exaggeration to say that...... It's already a hell on earth. We don't yet know what is going on, but sooner or later this disaster will spread to this side. We all have families, and many of us have families in other places, and I said that it is no longer safe to travel by land. If you're leaving, the ships in the dockyard are free to use as you please. ”

Hearing his statement, more than a dozen employees present looked at each other, as if they were still a little hesitant.

Haichen urged them again: "Don't hesitate, hurry up!" ”

Not far away, the TV was still broadcasting urgent reports from all over the world, and even the announcer's voice seemed panicked.

At the end of the silence, Uncle Fu slowly stood up and sighed.

"The little proprietor has a point, and it's not a matter of staying here. It's better to leave as soon as possible, and it's not too late to come back when the world calms down. Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood. ”

Only then did the employees stand up and walk up to Haichen to say goodbye to him.

Haichen sent everyone away, and in the end, only he, Lu Rulan and Uncle Fu remained in the office hall.

Uncle Fu asked Haichen: "Everyone is gone, little owner, what should you do?" ”

"We'll go right away." Haichen asked him rhetorically, "Uncle Fu, where are you going, your legs and feet are inconvenient, I can send you." ”

Uncle Fu thought for a while: "...... I think it's better to go back to Hailuo Island, Lao Zhang and his family are still guarding the lighthouse over there, and I can be their companions. ”

"It's fine." Haichen nodded, and looked at Lu Rulan again, "You go and help Uncle Fu clean up, we have to leave immediately." ”

As he was talking, he heard the siren of a police car or an ambulance faintly heard on the pier not far away.

Without further ado.

Helping Uncle Fu pack up some clothes and daily necessities, and carrying the remaining half of the bag of rice in the kitchen, Lu Rulan followed Uncle Fu briskly towards the direction of the dock.

Behind them, the road outside the factory had already begun to become lively. The sound of vehicle horns, barking dogs and cries of babies came and went, and it seemed that the residents of the neighborhood had begun a mass evacuation.

Lu Rulan followed Uncle Fu into the dock, and the high-powered lights illuminated the scene in front of him-

The interior of the dock is five or six stories high, and on the outside of the channel leading to the sea, there is a ten-meter-long small cabin sailboat.

"Such a tall sailboat, parked indoors?"

Lu Rulan wondered as she walked to the edge of the boat. I saw that Haichen was already standing on the deck and started the ship.

"Hurry up."

Helping Uncle Fu onto the boat, Lu Rulan put her luggage on the sinking passage leading to the cabin, and then felt a slight shaking - the ship set sail.

Whether he drove a ferry or a sports car, Haichen's driving skills were reckless, and from time to time there would be sudden actions such as rapid acceleration and sudden braking, and even tail flicking and drifting. In contrast, his ship sailed much more calmly.

It didn't take long for them to leave the dock and actually sail on the surface of the harbor.
