"Boss, you have to give the next order. &Karl urged, no one wants to be stranded on this island, they are just mercenaries, not a regular army, and military discipline is just a piece of waste paper to them!

Karl never expected to maintain his position with military discipline, only money could bring them together, but if even his life was gone, what was the point of money?!

"Did you find anything in the rest of the directions?" Lin Chaohui asked, no one can guarantee whether this fishing boat is a trap or not!

"You can't trust my profession?" Karl was a little unhappy, but replied, "I have set up an all-round observation post on the island, and at least so far, only this fishing boat has been found. ”

"Hmph...... Omnidirectional observation post, but still let Xinyi snatch people away under his nose. Lin Chaohui said sarcastically.

Karl's face twitched a few times and became very ugly, but this was not the time to get angry, he held back his anger and urged, "You must have a decision, otherwise it is not impossible for them to mutiny." ”

This sentence made Lin sound like a threat, but Carl wasn't wrong, it was just that his language art was terrible.

Lin Chaohui, who hesitated for a long time, finally let Carl send out a light signal with a tactical flashlight: "Please...... Dock...... Don't...... Play...... Tricks. ”

The fishing boat responded when it saw the island. The fishing boat responded: "Understood...... Please...... No...... Fire! ”

The fishing boat drove at low power, slowly approaching the abandoned port, and when it just docked, several mercenaries were already waiting at the pier, and before the fishing boat could get completely close, several mercenaries jumped on the fishing boat and immediately launched a combat search formation.

The ship's boss seemed prepared for the mercenary's reaction, shouting to them, "Relax...... Just relax...... I'm not armed on board! ”

The mercenaries didn't believe it, they all searched around, and confirmed that there were only 3 crew members on board, and there was no threat, and the lead one reported on the intercom: "All safe!" ”

Carl looked at Lin Chaohui beside him, at this time Lin Chaohui was looking suspiciously at this unarmed fishing boat of unknown origin with a telescope, thought about it, and said to the search team with a walkie-talkie: "Ask the captain, who sent him?" ”

"Huh? I really don't know, I'm just paid to work, and someone pays a lot of money to come here to pick up a few friends. The captain shrugged, looking at his appearance he really didn't know.

In this area, fishing does not make much money, 100% of the main income of fishing boats depends on smuggling and doing some things that are not on the table, making this money is destined not to have too much curiosity, this captain has been working hard in the wind and rain for no less than 10 years, too curious to live now.

"What if...... What happens if someone attacks us halfway? Lin Chaohui suddenly thought of this question and asked Carl.

"There is only one result, death!" Carl's answer is always ugly, but practical!

A fishing boat with a speed of only a dozen knots, in the vast sea, can not outrun any armed ship in any way, the scene of Ola's yacht is still in front of us, if Xinyi repeats his old tricks, maybe this small fishing boat will not last more than half an hour and sink to the bottom of the sea with itself!

"But I don't think anyone is going to attack us halfway." Carl said slowly.

"Why?" Lin Chaohui asked rhetorically.

"Because it's not necessary." Carl said.

"But I had to think about that possibility." Lin Chaohui said.

"Yes, there are any possibilities, but whether it will happen or not, only God knows." Carl said indifferently.

The search team has not received a new order, and is a little anxious, urging on the intercom: "Boss, what to do next?" ”

And some of the waiting mercenaries are also a little impatient, and the boring torment is better for them than to fight happily! Several mercenaries who couldn't hold back also urged: "Carl, what are you thinking?" Why is there no order yet?! ”

Carl looked at Lin Chaohui, here, Lin Chaohui is the boss, the decision can only be made by him, of course, the final result can only be borne by him, Carl will never believe that Lin Chaohui will think about the people under him, and the people in this circle must first think of themselves.

Lin Chaohui gritted his teeth, although this is a risk, but what about a gamble? Ordered: "Get on board!" Be vigilant! ”

The mercenaries' combat qualities did not need Lin Chaohui's reminder, they guarded each other and boarded the ship, and after boarding the ship, they relied on the cabins and terrain on the ship to establish a counterattack defense line.

Lin Chaohui and Carl got on the boat last, and before getting on the boat, Lin Chaohui asked meaningfully: "If we are attacked at sea, I would like to know if you will hand me over for self-protection?" ”

Karl smiled and didn't answer.

Lin Chaohui asked unrelentingly: "Yes, or won't?" ”

"I want to reassure you that there won't be that time, and I ask you to trust our work ethic." Karl replied.

"Work ethic? Is there still a word for professional ethics in this world? Lin Chaohui sneered in his heart, since Peng Haoming appeared, Lin Chaohui overturned many of his former ideas, such as persistence, such as loyalty, such as the work ethic that Carl said.

What did I think about for Zhu Meier's Zen heart? In short, not to be in the middle of now, to have nothing - or rather, to wait for a hope that will never be there!

Karl ignored Lin Chaohui and stepped straight onto the fishing boat, Lin Chaohui hesitated, and with the help of a mercenary, he also got on the boat.

The captain of the ship asked loudly, "Are you all here?" It's time to sail! ”

Carl waved his hand at the boat boss, signaling that the boat could start, the boat boss started the engine, the fishing boat rumbled and vibrated and began to reverse, the boat boss adjusted his posture, turned, and left the dock of Mermaid Island, and then increased the throttle, Lin Chaohui's ears heard the rumbling sound of the diesel engine of the fishing boat.

Lin Chaohui leaned on the railing of the fishing boat class A, this fishing boat is very clean, maybe since it was put into use, there has not been any fish, and the fishing boat can not see the fishing nets and other fishing gear that should be seen, judging from this point, the boat boss is also a person who is just a person who eats thanks to the smuggling, the cold sea breeze in the second half of the night blows, Lin Chaohui feels a little cold, he decided to go to the cockpit to talk to the boat boss, maybe he can get some useful information.

When Lin Chaohui walked into the cockpit, there was only the boss of the ship, and the remaining two crew members had already rested, the boss of the ship set up automatic navigation, half leaning on the seat, and was taking out a pipe and tobacco from his pocket, and saw Lin Chaohui open the door and walk in, glanced at it, nodded symbolically, and did not speak.

The captain of the boat dug in his pocket for a long time, only to find that the tobacco had run out, and the spare tobacco was placed in the cabin, so he had to hold a pipe without tobacco in his mouth, feeling a little embarrassed.

Lin Chaohui took out his cigarette and handed it over, but the boat boss was not polite, took the cigarette and said, "Thank you, boss." He took care of himself and removed the cigarette, stuffed the tobacco into the pipe, lit the pipe, and took a beautiful puff, the small cockpit filled with the smell and smoke of burning tobacco.

"What, doesn't the boss smoke?" With the cigarette, the relationship between the two seemed to be closer, and the boat boss squinted his eyes and saw that Lin Chaohui did not light a cigarette for himself, and asked.

"Borrow a fire." Lin Chaohui felt that this was a good time to get closer to each other, and stretched out his hand to ask.

The boat boss happily handed him the lighter, Lin Chaohui lit a cigarette, and played with the lighter: "The limited edition of the son of the sea god, I can't see that you still have such a precious thing, captain." Lin Chaohui saw the special pattern on the copper-hulled lighter, this lighter is definitely a luxury, limited to 100 pieces worldwide, the public price is 60,000 US dollars, only a few rich people have it, no matter what, no one can imagine that it will appear on this small fishing boat.

The boat boss opened his mouth and smiled proudly, and Lin Chaohui took a closer look at it through the dim light in the cockpit: "It's still genuine, ship boss, it seems that you are not simple." ”

"Where, the boss laughed, this was given to me by a boss, as for whether it is precious or not, I don't know." The humility of the boat boss did not hide his pride.

"Oh? The boss who can give you such a precious thing seems to have the ability to reach the sky. Lin Chaohui said.

The boat boss laughed: "Haha! Boss, who doesn't have the ability to live in this place? After thinking about it, he complimented Lin Chaohui again: "Including you, I think you can not only pass through the sky, but also through the universe!" ”

Lin Chaohui heard the compliment of the captain of the ship, politely replied with a smile, and said, "Where, I am just begging for a living." ”

"Well, the boss is begging for a living, and we people are begging for survival, and we have to rely on the bosses to feed us." With the stimulation of tobacco, the boat boss seems to have forgotten for a moment that silence is golden.

Lin Chaohui saw that his cigarette was almost finished, and handed him another one, the boat boss was not polite, tore the cigarette and stuffed the tobacco into the pipe, and lit it with the precious "Son of the Sea God", while saying vaguely: "The boss's cigarette is good, I can't see that you are so polite and smoked such a cigarette." ”

"Who asked you to do this deal?" Lin Chaohui pretended to ask casually.

"Hey, boss, you know, don't ask what you shouldn't." The ship's boss cracked his mouth and smiled, but did not answer directly.

"And what should I ask?" Lin Chaohui put on a cigarette again, the boat boss handed over the "son of the sea god", Lin Chaohui opened it with a "snap", lit the cigarette, took a deep breath, and spit out a puff of smoke, the boat boss reached out to ask for the lighter, but Lin Chaohui did not return it to him, playing with it in his hand, and the boat boss's hand stopped in the air awkwardly.

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Lin Chaohui saw the smile of the boat boss frozen on his face, and asked with a smile.

"Haha...... The boss laughed. The boat boss hid his embarrassment with laughter: "I'm afraid, how can I not be afraid, but I'm even more afraid of poverty!" ”

"It makes sense, everyone is afraid of poverty." Lin Chaohui felt that the ship boss was quite realistic, and said: "In this way, we can talk, of course, talk about something that can be discussed." ”

"Boss, I really don't know who asked me to come." The boat boss cleverly diverted the conversation: "Your boss is begging for life, I am begging for survival, don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”

"Don't you want to know why my people have guns?" Lin Chaohui sneered.

"I can tell the boss is a character, but I really don't want to know." The boat boss knows very well that begging for a life in this place, the more people of his level, the more he knows, the sooner he will die.

"How much money he gives you, I'll give you double." Lin Chaohui doesn't want to talk nonsense, sometimes the temptation of money will be more effective than any cross-examination.

"The boss is so generous." The boat boss politely replied, but did not answer, which made Lin Chaohui a little surprised.

Is it true that work ethic sometimes transcends the temptation of money?

"Then I want to know, where are you going to take us?" Lin Chaohui asked again.

"I'll take you wherever you want to go." The ship's boss replied very cheerfully.

"How's Plain Harbour?" Lin Chaohui asked tentatively.

"Listen to it!" The boat boss replied.

When he went to Pulin Harbor, Lin Chaohui threw himself into the net, he just wanted to use this place name to test the reaction of the ship boss, but the ship boss didn't seem to have the reaction he wanted, it seems that the ship boss is very stick to his principles - don't know what you shouldn't know.

It seems that from the ship boss, he can't get more information he wants, and the smoke that fills the narrow cockpit after continuous smoking makes Lin Chaohui feel a little tight, and his eyes are so smoked that he wants to cry, so he decided to go outside to breathe.

"Boss go slowly." Seeing Lin Chaohui push away the cockpit and leave, the boat boss said hello as if relieved, Lin Chaohui sneered in his heart and didn't say anything.

The mercenaries on the ship, except for a few guards, most of them were resting, Carl stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the sea in the night, at this time the wind and waves were calm, except for hearing the irritating roar of diesel engines, the sound of the waves could not be heard at all, Lin Chaohui walked over, stood next to him, and said: "I hope your judgment is correct." ”

Carl understood what Lin Chaohui was talking about, but with a flight of more than 8 hours, who could guarantee that there would be no problems, he raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said, "There are less than 3 hours until dawn." ”

"What does that mean?" Lin Chaohui asked.

"In the vast sea, a night raid is not a good option, if it were me, I would do it during the day." Karl said with a smile.

"And then?" Lin Chaohui pretended to be calm.

"And then there was no more." Karl replied calmly: "It's just a hypothesis, it's just a possibility, but I think it's very unlikely. ”

"Why?" Lin Chaohui asked.

"Because...... Boss, you still have value to use. Carl said slowly, looking at Lin Chaohui meaningfully.

"I think you already know how this ship of unknown origin came about." Lin Chaohui smiled, he hated Carl's directness without the art of talking, but the accuracy of Carl's intuition made Lin Chaohui also very amazed, so Carl could become the commander of the mercenaries.

"I don't know, but I know we'll make it to land alive." Karl shrugged his shoulders and said, "Boss, I think you can rest for a while." ”

The continuous thinking made Lin Chaohui indeed a little tired, the stuffiness and smoke in the cockpit just now, and at this time he was blown by the cold sea breeze, Lin Chaohui felt a little headache, but there were still some problems that had to be solved, and he asked again: "Where do you think it is better to land?" Port Purin? ”

"Boss, you want to throw yourself into the net?" Carl asked.

"Of course not."

"There is a bay southwest of Port Purin, and there is a dock, where we can get a quick response from our armed forces." Carl is still very thorough and meticulous.

"Well, then do as you say." Lin Chaohui said: "How long does it take to get there? ”

"At this rate, it's going to take about nine hours." Karl replied, "But that would bypass Purin Harbor and reduce the chance of being attacked." ”

"Probability...... Hum...... Probability doesn't seem to work for people in the business. Lin Chaohui said in his heart: "There is only yes or no, life or death." ”

But Lin Chaohui didn't say it, Westerners' thinking seems to be more "scientific", and they like to use statistics to speak, Lin Chaohui gently "hmmed" and explained: "It's okay to do a good job in vigilance." ”

"Boss, don't worry, it's all done." Carl replied.

For military matters, Lin Chaohui has always been very relieved of Carl, although there was a mistake on Mermaid Island, but he also understood that it was not Carl's fault, before the long voyage was over, Lin Chaohui could not completely relax, but he did need to rest at this time, even if it was for a while!

When Lin Chaohui woke up, it was already dawn, he walked on the first shift, stretched his waist, there was only such a lonely fishing boat on the vast sea, the engine roared and drove slowly, Lin Chaohui looked at his watch, at 9:3 in the morning, he asked a vigilant mercenary: "Where is Carl?" ”

"He didn't go down until dawn to rest for a while." The mercenary replied.

"Hmm." Lin Chaohui climbed to the high place on the cockpit again, and he could already see the outline of the mainland mountain range from a distance, and his heart was slightly settled.

It wasn't until about 2 o'clock in the afternoon that the fishing boat drove into the bay that Carl said, and there was nothing to do all the way, the boat slowly landed on the shore and gently hit the reef on the shore, and Lin Chaohui's heart was completely relaxed.

"Thank you." Lin Chaohui handed the boat boss a cigarette, and nothing unpleasant happened along the way.

"Hey...... The owner worked hard. The captain took the cigarette, tore it open and stuffed it into his pipe, the two crew members had docked the ship, and the mercenaries jumped onto the solid ground.

After smoking a cigarette, Lin Chaohui should also leave, and the boat boss suddenly stopped him: "Boss, there is one more thing for you." ”

"Huh? What is it? Lin Chaohui became alert.

"Hehe, I don't know, I don't ask much." The boat boss took out a plastic box from the dirty boatman's uniform and handed it to Lin Chaohui.

Lin Chaohui took the box, did not open it, when he jumped ashore, the boatman also began to pack up the cable, the boat boss started the engine, and shouted to Lin Chaohui on the shore: "Boss, you want to know who asked me to pick you up, just look at the contents of that box." ”

It was a completely sealed box, Lin Chaohui didn't find an opening, thought about it, took out a pistol, put the box on a stone, and smashed the box with the handle of the gun, inside was a note, only a string of phone numbers.

Lin Chaohui looked at this phone number and thought for a while.

...
