Chapter Eighty-Five: The Behemoth in the Dark
At midnight, Haizhou Sancha Port is still lit up with large lights.
The water of the Liubo River is no longer as clear as it used to be, the fish and shrimp have long since disappeared, the black and heavy waves continue to lap on the shore of the port, and a layer of suspended matter is surging densely, as if it is the corpse of the old era that has not yet rotted away.
Zhuo Yitian ignored Chen Mo's opinion at all, parked the car in an open-air parking lot, and strode to the road. She was wearing military camouflage today, with a pair of field boots on her feet, and she was heroic and almost like a beautiful man.
Chen Mo looked at her without looking back, unable to even say a word.
On the way to Haizhou, Zhuo Yitian mentioned the case she followed, and Lin Qingying was a key figure.
As early as a few years ago, the special police began to notice that an international gambling group called "Galaxy" had extended its tentacles to the territory. As an emerging gambling method, private boxing is vigorously supported by the galaxy, and foreign countries are extremely developed in this field, and have industrialized management experience. After many bookmakers in China cooperated with the Galaxy, an invisible network was gradually formed, and the outlets echoed and connected with each other, and gamblers adopted a membership system, and the annual flow of gambling funds abroad exceeded 2 billion yuan.
Except for the Zhuo family, no one in Yancheng knew that the rebellious and unruly Zhuo Yitian was not really removed from the SWAT team at the beginning. The violent incident, which was used as a laughing stock by the do-gooders, was just a show. In the past few years, Zhuo Yitian has never met anyone in the SWAT team, and he always makes a special phone call, usually regards causing trouble as his own responsibility, and over time, his reputation has gradually risen, and the Sichuan character lines between Zhuo's eyebrows have become deeper and deeper.
Zhuo Yitian is tough in the background, and he is extremely beautiful, and he eats very openly. Lin Qingying was still wary at first, but later when Old Man Zhuo saw that his granddaughter was really making trouble, he was furious and personally took the guards to the night scene to arrest people, which can be regarded as an indirect proof of something.
Lin Qingying is a family that relies on private fists, and she acts cautiously, and Zhuo Yitian has no conclusive evidence in her hand to prove that she is on the line with the Galaxy Group. When watching the fledgling Chen Mo fight his first boxing, she just received the news that the Galaxy was going to hold a competition in the territory, a group elimination system, and the preparation funds alone cost astronomical sums.
The high-level special police have been laying the groundwork for a long time, and police officers like Zhuo Yitian don't know how many have been dispatched, so they naturally refuse to catch a few small fish and shrimp casually. Zhuo Yitian offered to sneak into the competition, and only after getting approval did he start to play Chen Mo's idea.
After taking over in Haizhou, one after another high-odds events shocked Chen Mo's name. Lin Qingying was really attracted to attention, but in the end, she acted as an intermediary to challenge Pan Renfeng's father and son. The uninvited guest who came out halfway made the water even more muddy, and Zhuo Yitian actually had the idea of letting Chen Mo stop after learning about Feng Ziwu's strength.
Escaping and retreating was never her style, but this time it was completely different.
However, Chen Mo won and won the hearty ten battles.
The foreign forces behind Pan Renfeng's father and son are mysterious and unpredictable, and it is impossible to prove that there is a direct connection with the Galaxy Group. With the Pan family's infighting in it, the special service commissioner sent by the provincial capital did not pay too much attention to Chen Mo, but Zhuo Yitian vaguely found that things were more complicated than they seemed.
Luo Li's last words to Chen Mo, everyone in the distance couldn't hear half a word.
"It was not easy for my senior brother to follow here, and he contacted the commissioners in the provincial capital. The other party was very arrogant, and said that he would not arrest anyone first, and asked my senior brother not to do too much, so that he was half angry. After skipping the part that should be omitted, Zhuo Yitian smiled, "I think that half-breed little girl is a little weird, anyway, I'm idle, I'll run with you." ”
She didn't even ask a word about what Chen Mo wanted to get back.
A dull spring thunder rumbled, and a bolt of lightning fell from the depths of the firmament, and the powerful light energy instantly reflected the heavens and the earth in a miserable white. The two entered the dock of the bonded area one after the other, the towering tower crane cut the iron arm in the sky, the container was built on the deck like giant building blocks, and the hoarse shouts of the stevedores came and went.
The first time Chen Mo heard about the existence of any gambling group, he understood the purpose of Zhuo Yitian's involvement in private boxing. The reason why he asked Zhuo Yitian for help was because he felt that when she arrived in the Heavenly Palace, most of the special police would be outside to control her. Now that Luo Li's whereabouts have indeed been found, Zhuo Yitian is following closely by his side, which makes him feel constrained.
With her present, the veterans can't be transferred.
Compared with the 100,000-ton cargo ship "Dragon King", Luo Sanpao's ship has almost become a child's toy. The cargo ship is painted black and brown, and the huge hull looks like a prehistoric sea beast, standing majestically on the river.
Zhuo Yitian shouldn't have come to this kind of place for the first time, so he took Chen Mo to the dock warehouse and got two sets of work clothes. The clothes were too big, Zhuo Yitian put them directly on the outside of the camouflage, and they were still a little loose and loose, so he had to roll up his trousers. After putting on the hard hat, the two glanced at each other and smiled, Chen Mo just wanted to speak, but the other party had already turned around and walked towards the cargo ship.
The "Dragon King" was full of containers and was just waiting for the ship to depart. Taking advantage of the night, the two went up the gangway, like ants climbing a huge sand dune. It was nearly one o'clock in the morning, and there was no one on the deck, except for the distant sound of conversation in the direction of the stern bridge.
Entering the inside of the bridge tower, Zhuo Yitian gestured to Chen Mo and motioned for him to follow him.
After the expansion of the Tricha Harbor terminal, such large ships are not uncommon. The "Dragon King" is a national ship, but Luo Li's group chose to hide here, obviously colluding with the senior crew and waiting to leave the country by water. Ocean liners are equivalent to a miniature society, ordinary mechanics and sailors earn little, have no right to speak, and eventually work with their heads bored, and presumably will not become the object of bribery.
Under the ghostly lights in the cabin, Zhuo Yitian's mind was racing, and he took off his helmet as he walked, and pulled out his spear casually. The interior of the bridge is very large, and below the bridge is the cabin where the crew lives and lives, and at the moment there is a sound of snoring in some of the closed doors.
Avoiding a few drunken men walking in the aisle, Chen Mo suddenly stopped, "Not here, under our feet." ”
"How do you know?" Zhuo Yitian asked suspiciously.
Chen Mo's face was gloomy and he didn't answer.
The familiar energy field was rippling from the bilge, vertically close, like a silent and menacing call. From the time he got on the ship, everything seemed too simple, and he wasn't sure if the other party was prepared.
Walking step by step along the Tiege Staircase to the lowest floor of the bridge tower, Chen Mo tentatively turned the rotating handle on the hatch, and Zhuo Yitian was just about to go in, but he took it back and pulled him behind him.
"I'll go ahead." Chen Mo said.
Zhuo Yitian was stunned, his eyes softened, and he understood that he wanted to protect himself as much as possible.
The two walked through a long and narrow passageway, through the giant iron gate, and entered the bilge space. As we go deeper, we see no longer visible to our fingers, and there is no longer any light source. Chen Mo put his steps to the lightest and slowest level, and the Ares robot flowed silently in his body, alerting all possible threats.
In the perception, Zhuo Yitian's body had a condensed energy, and the gradually rising internal breath also put her on high alert.
In front of me was pure blackness, condensed blackness, death into a piece of blackness, even the deepest nightmare could not be compared. Although the mobile phone was in his pocket, as long as he took it out and pressed any key, there would be light coming out, but Chen Mo knew that if he really wanted to do this, it would be equivalent to erecting an obvious target in the dark.
Zhuo Yitian also understood this truth, so she didn't move.
The force field fluctuation with a special metallic sense was flickering somewhere in front of him, and although he couldn't see it, Chen Mo was sure that Luo Li was there.
"I got it."
Chen Mo still remembered that when she said this, a light smile appeared on her lips. At that moment, all disguise faded from her, leaving only the cruel satisfaction of the predator after the gluttony.
In fact, Chen Mo didn't care too much about other aspects, but as a host, he had already unconsciously regarded the Ares robot as a part of himself. They were like his flesh and blood, but now they had been cut off a little bit.
This made him murderous like never before.
After touching a hard object, the outstretched right foot immediately retracted and fell to the ground. Chen Mo stretched out his hand and touched it carefully, it seemed to be an iron frame, with some wooden boxes on it, stacked very high.
The edge of the wooden box was rough, and Chen Mo made an inaudible "rustling" sound when he touched it. At the same time, there was a slight movement more than ten meters away on the left, as if an oversized rat was crawling by.
Chen Mo pressed Zhuo Yitian's shoulder with his backhand to prevent her from moving. Zhuo Yitian patted him lightly to show that he understood, and then stood quietly in place.
Both of them felt the powerful aura of the "mouse", but they were both as calm as rocks.
Chen Mo ignored the "mouse" and slowly walked to the front where Luo Li was, step by step. The strange and dangerous environment has awakened the remaining animal instincts in the soul, and the Ares robot began to assist in the movement of the limbs, he walked like a tangible and intangible ghost, and with each step, the front end of the foot fell to the ground, and the arch of the foot used force to dissolve the weight of the sinking of the whole body, silently.
Arriving at the familiar force field fluctuations, Chen Mo opened his mouth little by little, and with an extremely slow lung expansion action, he inhaled the longest breath in his life, and was about to make a move, but his whole body froze.
At a distance almost face-to-face, he began to feel something unusual, and when he reached out his hand, he finally touched a thin metal cylinder on an iron frame. It is about the length of a pen, and the thickness is about the same, and the invisible fluctuations are even stronger when held in the hand, and in terms of perception alone, it seems that Luo Li's whole person is contained in it.
What is it?
The sudden fist and foot exchange from behind was like a storm, and Chen Mo immediately turned around and pounced. The route was already familiar, he rushed out of full speed, and when he heard Zhuo Yitian let out a muffled snort, he couldn't help but redden.
When he arrived, Chen Mo blasted out three punches in a row, hitting the opponent's chest and abdomen, and actually made a dull sound of "Dangdangdang" three gold and iron strikes, and his finger bones were in severe pain.
As if nothing had happened, the man abandoned Zhuo Yitian, and reached out his palm to grab Chen Mo. In this short moment, he had already been hit by Zhuo Yitian's full force under the chain of five legs, his body just shook slightly, and there was no other reaction.
Zhuo Yitian was moved, these few times Tan's legs were full of internal strength, even the steel pipe could kick the bend, but there was almost no reaction when it fell on the other party.
Could it be that his whole body is beaten with iron?
The palm of the hand was surprisingly large and heavy, and Chen Mo's blocking action was completely an ornament, and the man gently opened his arm and carried it in the air, just like a strong man carrying a puppet.
Chen Mo found out that the other party was actually a giant, and he just wanted to use the overrun explosion, but he heard a "snap", and Zhuo Yitian, who was full of anger, had already shot at close range!
Zhuo Yitian was only afraid that the person would hurt Chen Mo, so he used the firearm. In this dark and gloomy space, she couldn't see anything clearly, so she could only put her arm on Chen Mo's side and hug the fire forward to ensure that she would not be injured by mistake.
After the gunshot, the man still stood upright, and opened his mouth sullenly: "I didn't do anything bad, why do you want to beat me?" ”
"Iron Bull?" Chen Mo was taken aback when he heard this rather familiar thick voice.
The man was stunned, then withdrew his arm, hugged him to his chest, and laughed: "Little brother, are you here to save me again?" ”
