Chapter 368: Islander Civilization
The door of the hotel opened again, and when Zhou Xianwei saw Wei Chiran standing at the door with a strange old man, he was stunned, and was about to open his mouth to ask who the person was, when He Changqing stepped forward with an arrow, directly restrained him and pressed him to the ground.
Wei Chiran also closed the door, Zhou Xianwei was suppressed, and it became difficult to breathe, let alone speak.
He Changqing, who restrained Zhou Xianwei, whispered in his ear: "I am the Mu Cheng you saw before, but I am a fake, but don't be afraid, we are not here to deal with you, we are here to seek the truth, you have been used, your information is now clear, Zhou Xianwei, I will let you go in three seconds, I hope you will talk to us honestly, don't act rashly." ”
Wei Chiran didn't expect that He Changqing would have a direct showdown in this way, so straightforward and simple.
Three seconds later, He Changqing let go of Zhou Xianwei, and when Zhou Xianwei got up, as soon as he raised his hand, He Changqing instantly dislocated his arms, and then raised his hand to push it to the sofa and sit down.
Zhou Xianwei knew very well at this time that he was by no means the opponent of the old man in front of him.
He Changqing sat down and motioned for Wei Chiran to make a pot of tea, while he told Zhou Xianwei's information, and when Wei Chiran finished making tea, he told him his previous speculation about the case.
When Zhou Xianwei heard this, he knew that he had been completely exposed, but he didn't expect that someone would know all this so well, and from his words, he analyzed that it was not Ge Chengli who betrayed him, Ge Chengli was also targeted, but he didn't understand the identity of the two people in front of him.
Zhou Xianwei asked: "Who are the two of you?" ”
He Changqing said: "The person who has the ability to manage you, Zhou Xianwei, you are suspected of killing Xia Congyun and Xia Sheng, you have violated the law, we want to know the truth, why did you do this?" ”
Zhou Xianwei still asked: "Who are you?" ”
Wei Chiran said: "You can think that we are police, and the police who specialize in handling cases like you are different from ordinary policemen." ”
Zhou Xianwei said, "I want to see your documents." ”
He Changqing smiled: "Documents? You're really interesting, now, to answer our question first, what you need to do is to atone for your sins, of course, atonement is unlikely, after all, those are two lives, you should not be a very evil person, don't force me to do it. ”
Zhou Xianwei is very conflicted now, although he is also a lot more relaxed. In the past few days, he has always felt guilty, and even felt that he had been a soldier in vain in those years, ashamed of his parents, and ashamed of the instructors and comrades-in-arms who had been in the army.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Xianwei decided to tell it all: "I'll explain." ”
Wei Chi stepped forward, helped Zhou Xianwei pick up his left arm, and handed him a cup of tea: "Take a sip of tea, moisten your throat, and start with joining the international rescue organization after you retire." ”
Zhou Xianwei said: "Good ......"
Zhou Xianwei's fate began to change after he retired, and he still feels that if he remained in the army, then nothing would happen after that.
Zhou Xianwei was very confused before he retired, he didn't know what he should do after retiring, he thought about doing something with his own discharge pay, but it was far from enough, he contacted his comrades-in-arms who had retired a few years earlier, and wanted to ask if there was any way?
The comrade-in-arms told him that a retired soldier like him from the Marine Corps still has a lot of places to go, and the one with the higher salary is the security company. Zhou Xianwei quickly refused because he didn't know about the security company, because in his thinking, the security company is equivalent to a mercenary, and Chinese law clearly stipulates that citizens with Chinese nationality are not allowed to participate in foreign mercenary organizations, and even if you participate abroad, you will be arrested immediately after returning to China.
Moreover, in the vast majority of countries, mercenary organizations are illegal criminal organizations. The United Nations and the Organization of African Unity have consistently and strongly condemned the activities of mercenaries, and have adopted a number of resolutions criminalizing mercenaries and prohibiting the use of mercenaries by any country. As a result, the mercenary companies of the past have been converted into private military contractors, but in fact they are also playing on the sidelines, but in addition to this, there are also legal private security companies.
In fact, it is not easy to make a precise distinction between private military companies and private security companies, since the personnel of both can be armed and can wear and use weapons. Therefore, it is not possible to distinguish whether or not to carry a weapon. Moreover, most of the world's private military companies now operate private security companies at the same time.
At present, the only way to distinguish between the two is to distinguish the two in a more professional way: those who are subordinate to the army and serve military purposes are classified as private military companies, that is, P**; Those who serve the government, enterprises, non-governmental organizations, and private individuals can be summarized as private security companies, that is, PSCs.
China's private security companies are all overseas, starting with maritime security, and have developed into large security groups with maritime security services, armed and unarmed security patrol missions, explosives and explosives disposal services, private security services, large-scale on-site security services, fleet escort services, support services, security consulting services, security training services, etc.
Moreover, there is actually the ICOCA organization, the "International Association of Private Security Service Providers Code of Conduct", which is a member of the vast majority of private security companies, strictly abides by its code of conduct, and absolutely does not participate in the war acts of any country.
Even so, Zhou Xianwei was still reluctant to participate, so after retiring, he stayed at home for two months, thinking about what he should do next.
Two months later, Zhou Xianwei received another call from the comrade-in-arms, saying that there was a chance for him, and this time the opportunity was rescue.
All over the world, accidents occur all the time, not only in areas of war and conflict, but also in some no-man's land, and some companies undertake the mission of going to these areas to rescue, just eight words - live to see people, dead to see corpses.
Just a week ago, a scientific expedition team landed on an uninhabited island in Southeast Asia, and who knew that it lost contact with the headquarters on the fifth day, but the positioning device still worked, and it always showed that they were in the center of the uninhabited island. The headquarters of the scientific expedition team had no way and did not dare to send its own people to take risks, so after obtaining the consent of the country to which the uninhabited island belonged, it sent a request to the relevant professional organizations, hoping that they could send a professional search and rescue team to find out.
Zhou Xianwei said while Wei Chiran looked at the mobile phone, and the relevant information found by Lao He was uploaded on the mobile phone, judging from the information, Zhou Xianwei did not lie, he did temporarily join a private security company in Singapore and participated in the search and rescue operation.
Zhou Xianwei looked at He Changqing and said: "The missing scientific expedition team has a total of 6 people, and our search and rescue team is also 6 people, we first went to Southeast Asia, and after gathering in country T, we went to the uninhabited island by boat, because taking a boat is the most economical way, and it is agreed in the contract, unless there is an accident, otherwise, if we want to change to a means of transportation other than the agreement, we need to deduct it from our own remuneration, so we have no objection to this, even if it takes three days to go by boat." ”
He Changqing asked, "What is the name of that uninhabited island?" ”
Zhou Xianwei said: "Translated into Chinese, it is called Nandao, there is no special name, because this island is too far away, not too big or small, it is not cost-effective to build an airport, and the climate changes greatly throughout the year, so no one wants to develop it." ”
Wei Chiran asked, "Why did the expedition team go there?" What's there? ”
"There are many legends among fishermen in Southeast Asia, one is about the civilization of the islanders, the legend is that many years ago, a group of people left the mainland for the island, and they swore before leaving that they would never set foot on the mainland, but only live on the island and the sea." Zhou Xianwei recalled carefully, and organized his language in an orderly manner, "This legend lasted for a long time, and later some fishermen used to catch some cultural relics when they were fishing, and these cultural relics are not consistent with the cultural relics left by various eras in Southeast Asia, so it is speculated that there should be a connection with the so-called islanders." ”
The expedition team is part of a company, and their mission is actually to find new alternative energy sources in the name of scientific research, and in fact many organizations around the world are doing similar things, and they also invest huge amounts of money every year.
The expedition team found from the scattered information that the ships of the islanders' civilization are very large, and such a huge ship does not need sails, so it needs fuel, regardless of where their technology comes from, and what kind of fuel do they use? If such technology is available, will new alternative energy sources be found?
It took many years of hard work for the head of the scientific expedition team to finally persuade the company's upper echelons to allocate part of the funds for them to go to one of the islands that is said to have an island civilization, and the period is only seven days, and it must not be overtime.
The company had only intended to make the expedition team die, after all, no one believed in that kind of legend, just like the ruins of Atlantis have not been really discovered by mankind so far, and the name only appeared in the literature of the past, perhaps just made up by the ancients.
Who knew that on the fifth day after the expedition team landed on the island, they all disappeared near the end of the mission, but the strange thing is that their positioning signal has never been interrupted.
After all, it was six lives, so the company had to hire professionals to go to the island to find out.
Wei Chiran looked at his mobile phone, what Zhou Xianwei said before was completely consistent with the investigation of 517, so he asked, "Then what happened after you landed on the island?" ”
Zhou Xianwei shook his head: "Except for some marks left by the scientific expedition team along the way, as well as the traces left by them to build a camp, there is nothing special about that island, it is not too much to say that it is bare, it is no different from the uninhabited islands that I used to participate in training in the army, but they are slightly larger, and there are many such islands in the whole world." ”
When Zhou Xianwei's search and rescue team went deep into the island and was about to enter the center of the island, they found the bodies of two members of the scientific expedition team, and the two of them had countless wounds on their bodies, and it can be found that they had fought with people before they died, and then fled, and finally died on the way out.
The most important thing is that all the electronic equipment they originally carried on them was either damaged or disappeared, so the search and rescue team immediately came to the conclusion that the scientific expedition team had infighting or was attacked by pirates.
