A long time ago, I watched a movie about paratroopers, in which the paratroopers had a saying that "it's safest to hit the ground first".

And now, I understand the meaning of this sentence completely.

To be honest, even if I dare to do any evil thing such as killing people and setting fires, I really admire myself for jumping down from a thousand feet in the air like this, and thinking about it afterwards.

I didn't believe in God, but I was lucky enough to open my parachute bag, and although the wind blew high enough that I couldn't open my eyes and mouth, when the altitude gradually decreased, it was much better.

It's a place southeast of downtown Vancouver, and I landed not too far from a road.

As soon as my body shook, my instinctive body shrank up, and then naturally, my legs didn't dare to exert force, so I lay down on the ground, and my ass hit the ground first, but the damn ground was bare, and there were a lot of gravel stones, one of which was on my ass, I didn't care about the pain, and as soon as my body landed, I quickly pulled out a dagger from my shoes, and quickly cut the parachute rope on my shoulder.

This is what I see from the movie, especially in a windy and open area, after landing, because the umbrella bag is open, the wind will drag the umbrella away, and if you don't even cut the rope - if you're unlucky, if the rope stangles your neck, you may even be strangled to death.

I rolled on the ground like a mud monkey before I stood up, and my original high-value clothes were all gone. After making some direction, I remember that I had just landed and saw that the road was not far from here. So he ran over as fast as he could.

I have to say that the pilot technique sent to me by Yang Wei is still quite good, the landing site selected is very good, and the direction is also very accurate. I ran about 500 meters in one go, and I came to the road, and from here all the way north to Vancouver. Even though it's night, there are very few cars on the road, and it's the suburbs. But I'm not worried at all. Because I have lived in Vancouver for so many months, I already know that there are usually many trucks in the southeast that go back and forth between the city and the seaside, after all, Vancouver is a city close to the sea, and the ocean shipping industry is very developed.

I was right.

But as the old saying goes: I guessed the front. But I didn't guess the ending.

I waited on the side of the road for about half an hour, during which three cars passed by, but no one would stop no matter how much I beckoned.

After the painful experience. I see what the problem is.

First of all, it's night. Secondly, the area around here is relatively remote. Again, I was dressed strangely and dirty. His head and face were all gray. It looks like a fugitive, a homeless man, and a stowaway who has just come from the sea. As for the last point left, I guess there is still a bit of a tendency to be a sick man.

At night, in such an optimal geographical environment for roadblock robbery, any normal person saw a fugitive plus a homeless man plus a smuggler and a jīng sick person, stopping a car on the side of the road. I'm afraid that 99 out of 100 people will not only not stop, but will increase the accelerator and speed up to run over......

I can't help it. sighed...... Actually, I want to be a good person, but the reality is ...... Really the good for prostitution!

Seeing a small truck drive by from afar, I pulled out my dagger and quickly moved as large a rock as I could from the side of the road and threw it in the middle of the road.

Sure enough, the car first turned on its headlights, saw that there was an obstacle in the middle of the road, and immediately slowed down.

I am holding a dagger in one hand, and I am holding a picked up stone in the other hand, if the other party does not stop, I can't say, I have to be rough.

The car slowed down and didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, but adjusted its direction slightly to get around the rocks on the ground.

Bang! Crash!

The sound of the glass shattering, the car braked sharply, creaked, stopped, and I smashed the left window.

I strode forward with a knife and shouted, "Robbery! Get out!! ”

As soon as the words came out, I realized that something was wrong, and under the opposite conditions, I spoke Chinese. So he immediately changed his words and spoke in English.

After the door opened, three or four strong men jumped out of it, all of them wearing some dirty sailor suits, and they smelled a strong fishy smell in front of them.

Just after I shouted loudly, the guys who jumped out of the car were stunned for a moment, and they couldn't help but laugh when they saw me alone holding a dagger.

"You? Robbery? Standing at the front was a white man, a head taller than me, wearing a denim canvas dress, with sleeves rolled up, revealing muscular arms, with a scruffy beard, licking his lips, and walking towards me: "Dongzi, are you looking for death?" ”

As he spoke, his hands clenched into fists, and his joints rattled and he stretched out a palm the size of a fan to grab my collar.

"Ugh." I dodged as soon as I dodged, sighed, and looked at him with pity, although this guy was big, he was far from my opponent, at most he had a bit of brute strength. I said slowly: "I just want your car, give me your car, I won't hurt you." Well...... By the way, I'm just borrowing, you can leave a phone number for me, and I'll give you back the land when I get to Vancouver. I'll pay you a sum of money as a reward. ”

"Fuyuko, let me crush the bones first, and then we'll take you to Vancouver to see a doctor." The big man laughed twice and slammed his fist at me.

I stepped forward, twisted his wrist sideways, and then took advantage of the momentum, and his huge body fell forward, and I added another kick in the back, kicking him in the ass, and the guy plopped and snapped on the ground, and then I stepped on his back, and the dagger pressed his neck, and shouted in a deep voice: "Don't move!" ”

The blade of the dagger was right behind his neck, and he immediately stiffened, and I made a threat: "Quick, give me the car keys!" Otherwise I'm ......."

Just before I could finish speaking, suddenly, a pretentious voice came from the car......

"Oh! My God! What happened? ”

A tall, thin man jumped out of the car, I couldn't see him in the dark, but he had a hat crooked on his head, which was the captain's hat on the ship.

Vaguely, I felt that this voice was still a little familiar, and just when I was stunned, this person had already separated and walked in front of me, with surprise on his face, looking at me: "God, it's you?" Oh my goodness, Chen ...... Well, Mr. Chen Yang, I remember that I sent you to Vancouver a long time ago, it's been a few months, how did you become so down-and-out? God, you look like a bum. ”

I was stunned.

The man in front of me, wearing a captain's hat, tall and thin, with traces of mixed Eastern and Western blood on his face, smiled at me, showing his teeth slightly yellowed by cigarette smoke, but with a very kind smile in his eyes, with a typical joke of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

When I saw this person, I was stunned for a moment, then I immediately remembered, the dagger in my hand was also released, a smile appeared on my face, I took a step back, and let go of the guy on the ground.

"Is that you? Captain Wick? I didn't misremember your name, did I? ”

"Oh, it's so uncomfortable that you can't even confirm my name? You know, I saved your life! The guy smiled exaggeratedly.

Yes, he was right, he did save me.

The person in front of me was salvaged by his ship after I had just come to Canada, jumped into the sea at sea, and drifted for many years. And this Captain Wick took the two bags of money I found on the stowaway ship at sea as a reward, and sent me safely to shore.

Wick was still the same, but his clothes were a little dirty, and his hat was more crooked than before, and he looked at the dagger in my hand and smiled, "What's wrong?" When old friends meet, do you still need to hold this? ”

I immediately put away the dagger without hesitation and went up to shake hands with him, but Wick did not shake hands with me, but hugged me hard, and after parting, he looked at me, shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, it's been so long, why are you still so down?" Have you been living a wandering life for nearly a year? ”

I laughed and cursed, pointed to my clothes, and said, "Damn, have you ever seen a homeless man wearing 'Armani'?" ”

"Oh!" Wick's eyes immediately lit up: "So you got rich?" But why do you ......?" he pointed to me.

At this time, the guy on the ground got up, limped over to Wick, and looked at me angrily with a depressed expression.

"Alright, Victor, don't be depressed, our Mr. Chen, an old friend of mine, who once ran away from Martin's ship alone! The skills must be quite good, you are not his opponent, and there is no shame. He patted the strong man on the shoulder, looked at me, and narrowed his eyes: "Oh, then, Chen Yang, are you in trouble?" Need help? ”

Depend on!

His eyes were like seeing Kaizi.

I am very familiar with this kind of look, and I have experienced it once! Just a year ago, I got on his boat, and this guy took me two full bags of dollars and sent me ashore...... Damn, it's a whole big bag! When it was time to leave, he only gave me a bag of clothes and a little change.

Captain Wick is supposed to be a very cunning businessman, but the only good thing is that he is fairly well-behaved. He is greedy and greedy, and if he negotiates good conditions, he will not play any tricks to harm you. As for his lion mouth, that's what I'm willing to do anyway. And, at least he did save my life! If I hadn't gotten on his ship, I would have died at sea.

Let's put it this way, he's a greedy bastard, but he's kind of a cute bastard.

"Yes, Captain Wick, I need help. I need to get to the city as soon as possible! I looked at him, "I have to take your car." ”

Wick smiled, and he turned back to a few of his men and shouted, "Guys, we've got one more guest, well, Victor, you stupid cow, sit me in the back of the cargo compartment and move our guests out." ”

"Thank you, Captain Wick...... I'll thank you when I get back to the city. ”

"Alright." Wick waved his hand, with a sly smile on his face: "Just when I serve you for free, I have always been preferential to my old guests, besides, you paid too much last time, didn't you?" He winked at me.

Once we got in the car, Wick and I sat in the front seats, and his men sat in the back of the cargo hold.

Wick sighed. While taking out a dirty handkerchief from his bosom to wipe the sweat on his face, he sighed: "God, fortunately with you, I have an excuse to drive these pigs to the back." These guys are too old to bathe at sea, and the car is filled with a desperate smell...... You see, it's much better now. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly glanced at a guy who was driving, and smiled kindly, "Oh, I don't mean you, my dear Michael." ”

At my request, the car drove at breakneck speed. I gave my address and asked to take me to a hospital first. Because Ciro told me that after the assassination of the eighth master. I was sent to that hospital.

"Well, my friend, now you can tell me what terrible things have happened to you...... Have you been robbed? ”

"Nope." I gritted my teeth: "It's just that I just jumped from a height of several thousand feet, and it's the first time in my life that I've skydived." So it's a bit embarrassing. ”

Wick blinked: "Skydiving? At night? In this weather? God, you're such a weirdo. ”

I smiled wryly and didn't explain. Then I asked, "What about you?" Captain Wick. It's so late, are you going to Vancouver with your men? ”

"Yes." Wick pinched his nose: "These guys are too old to float on the sea, and they have no place to vent after holding too much jīng strength, so I'll take them to Vancouver to find a few girls to put out the fire, and then have two drinks...... This is true of the life of a seafarer. ”

The car was speeding away, and I looked at Wick and sighed in my heart: "I can't believe that you helped me again at a critical time, Captain Wick." Thank you very much. ”

"Oh, I almost forgot, starting tomorrow, you won't have to call me Captain Wick." Wick smiled slyly: "You should call me Mr. Wick, or Mr. Wick Chairman." ”

"Oh?" I was a little surprised.

"Yes, business at sea is getting worse and worse." Wick was a little more serious: "So, I have registered a fishing company and bought a few more fishing boats. Now, my 'Wick Fishing Company' has four fishing boats, and I have just returned from my last voyage, and my captain's position has been given to my first mate, and from tomorrow onwards I will not have to go to sea, just sit in my office, drink coffee, and wait for the money to be counted. Don't worry about jǐng cha, don't worry about the coastal jǐng guards, I'll do legitimate business in the future! He looked at me with a smile: "Oh, yes, thank you too." The large sum of money you paid me last time helped me a lot, and without that money, I probably wouldn't have the financial means to buy three more boats at once. ”

"Oh? That's really going to congratulate you. I hesitated for a moment, and the wind novel wap.fywap wondered, "But...... Can a fishing company make money? Your old business ......"

What I mean right now, Wick should be able to understand.

Although he only had one boat in the past, the dry land was illegal business such as smuggling, smuggling, etc., which was naturally a huge profit! Though we have four boats in future, we will do fair fishing business...... I'm afraid it may not be so profitable.

Wick is a smart person, naturally understood what I meant, he sighed, lowered his voice, this time he said Chinese! After all, he is a mixed-race child, and his Chinese is still very good.

"You don't know, something has happened at sea lately, it's too dangerous to do business now, I've made enough money, and my men have families to let them take risks. In the future, when I open this fishing company, my subordinates will have food to eat, and more importantly, safety...... I won't lose my life in a daze.

I glanced at Wick in surprise.

He should be an old man who ran to the sea, could it be that there is something wrong with his business?

"Alas, it's not yet the struggle of the Vietnamese and the Chinese." Wick pouted: "Don't you know what happened this year?" Drug cultivation in South America has been underharvested. The whole of North America needs to get drugs from other places, so the Vietnamese, Indians, and Chinese gangs are trying to find ways to get boats...... Boats are now the most important! Many of my colleagues used to be smuggling, smuggling, and drug transportation at the same time, but I didn't want to touch drugs...... Hell, my Captain Wick has a good reputation in the industry, delivers on time, never has a problem, and now everyone comes running to ask me to help them carry drugs. Forget about the Chinese, the Indians can't afford to mess with me. Those Vietnamese monkeys are so nasty! They're just a bunch of crazy people, an old friend of mine, and a captain. He refused the Vietnamese, and last week he died at sea, his ship was sunk by fire, and all of the sixteen crew members on board did not come back, all of them died. ”

Vietnamese!

A gleam of jīng flashed in my eyes.

"You don't know, in fact, I have something to do with the big circle." Wick's words startled me. I glared at him: "Big circle? You? ”

Wick misunderstood the reason for my surprise and smiled, "It's the ground, the big circle." But I'm not a purebred Chinese. I'm a locally-born Chinese, and I can only be considered a periphery in the big circle, and I don't belong to the big circle. It's just that it has something to do with them, and I often help them carry something. My friend, you're not afraid of me because I'm a big circle, are you? I know that the big circle doesn't have a good reputation in Canada, and many people think that the big circle kills people......"

Peripheral members? Partnership?

I understand.

Truly. The composition of the big circle is very peculiar, and other gangs are desperately trying to grow and recruit people, but the big circle. But it is the one who pays the most attention to "blood" among all the gangs. If you are not a purebred Chinese, it is difficult to become a real big circle! It's like I've got a piece of territory with Ciro now, and there are more than a dozen or twenty younger brothers in the territory, and there are a lot of people in the restaurant, these are all underworld elements, but only me, Ciro, and the nine brothers we brought out of the garage are the real big circle! Elsewhere. It's all peripheral molecules.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Wick thought I was just surprised and didn't care, but continued: "I am friends with Daquan, I have helped Daquan transport some things, and I have also transported people. But lately, the Vietnamese seem to be fighting to the death with the big circle, I am just a businessman, I don't want to fight and kill, I and my people are seamen, not soldiers. So, after thinking about it, I decided to retire. In the future, open a company and live a stable life. ”

"It's a good decision." I sighed and didn't say anything more.

Wick smiled, but a strange look flashed in his eyes: "To be honest, I am afraid it will take a while for me to make this kind of decision, but today, on our way back from going to sea, at sea, I saw some terrible things with my own eyes, and that kind of scene prompted me to make this decision...... Alas, I went ashore two hours ago and immediately called a company to tell them that I had decided to buy their fishing boats...... I might have to think about it for a long time. ”

"Things? What's the matter? ”

The muscles on Wick's face twitched, and he ripped off his captain's hat and wiped his face vigorously, his eyes strange as if he had seen something terrible.

"Hell, it's hell!" He let out a sigh and his gaze winced: "On the eastern coast, about twenty nautical miles from the shore, there is a small island, and that island originally had nothing but an abandoned lighthouse. But I know that there are some people living there on the island lately, it seems to be a big circle of people, and when I came back from going out to sea, I passed by the island and was going to sell them some food and fresh water. As a result, this time I just went to the island ......"

My heart moved, my eyes flashed, and my heart was bright!

Island?

Island!!

Live in the big circle on the island?!

I understood instantly...... That must be drugs!! The drugs that the eighth master got through Hong Da didn't hide in the car repair yard, they must have been hidden on that island! If the island is just an abandoned lighthouse, as Wick says, then it's a natural place to store things!! And cut off from the outside world, no one will go, and there is little danger of exposure...... And on the island, it's safe!!

"And then?" When I thought about this, my heart tightened, and from Wick's words, I already understood that something unfortunate must have happened!

Wick took a deep breath: "Dead! It's all dead! The muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched, and then he suddenly became irritable, and took a cigarette out of his words, and lit one for himself, for his hands trembled a little, and it took three times to light the fire.

After taking a puff of his cigarette, Wick calmed down a little, and he said in a deep voice, "It's not that I haven't seen a dead man, and it's not that I haven't killed anyone...... However, such a means of killing people, even going to hell will be cursed! ”
