Star Pier

Star Pier, Berth 8, SuperStar Gemini. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second

This is the clearest and most palpable line on the white paper, and it is also the most important clue at the moment. When Xiang Yun and Xiao Yongfei followed the address and came here, the sky had already begun to darken. The already depressed dock was about to fall silent at the end of the day's work. There were a few containers scattered in the huge square, and the workers who moved the goods had long since returned, and only a couple walked on them. The man wore heavy overalls, while the woman wore a knee-length trench coat and carried a small women's bag. The two of them talked and laughed all the way, and as they walked, they also disappeared into a hut on the edge of the freight yard.

So the last shred of anger in the square disappeared, and there was no one around, but they did not dare to be careless. The two men cautiously hid behind one of the containers, poking their heads out and counting down the first berth. When they saw the ship docked at berth eight, their expressions changed slightly.

"It will be...... Is this kind of thing? Xiang Yun was puzzled.

By "this kind of thing", she was referring to the old ship that was so dark that it looked like it could even be scrapped on the spot. In her imagination, this kind of name should be the kind of large cruise ship that is extremely gorgeously decorated, considering Lu Jia's identity and status, he should not have anything to do with this kind of ragged-looking freighter.

But she also knew that she couldn't look at appearances, because just as she finished saying this, she saw two luxury cars coming on the other side of the dock. The cars stopped near berth eight, and two guys in suits, who looked like bodyguards, got out of the car in front of them, patrolled around the area as if on guard, and then waved their arms in the direction of the "Gemini Superstar", as if they were whispering something.

The drawbridge slowly lowered, connecting the dock to the wrecked ship. The two bodyguards ran up the suspension bridge in small steps, escorting the luxury car behind them directly onto the boat. From the beginning to the end, the passengers in the car did not show their faces, but judging from this battle, the person in the car was definitely not an idle person.

"That's it." Xiao Yongfei let out a long sigh of relief, "It's really a good cover." ”

Xiang Yun nodded silently. Just as the drawbridge was lowered, she could faintly see a little of the interior of the boat, even though it was just a parking lot or something, it felt different from the outside, and it looked modern and radiant. Obviously, the ship's dilapidated condition is nothing more than an illusion it uses to deceive the outside world, and its real secret lies in its contents.

Moreover, it attracts more than just Lu Jia, a rich man.

They lay in ambush for half an hour, during which time they had already seen four or five groups of people on board. Except for a group of sailors who seemed to be hanging out on the shore, several other people were like the one just now, who sat in a luxury car and drove directly onto the ship, which shows that their identities are also extraordinary.

"Anyway, do you want to keep watching, or?" Xiao Yongfei asked. He asked as he looked at his watch, realizing that time was running out for them. They arrived here at about half-past seven and had been squatting for half an hour, and it was now past eight o'clock in the evening. And on that blank piece of paper, in addition to the address, was marked another sentence, and set sail on the 21st.

With less than an hour left for them, Xiao Yongfei wanted to say that he was almost ready to act now. However, Xiang Yun waved his hand, his eyes still staring at the front.

"Wait, it's not the time yet." She said lightly, "And that person hasn't shown up yet." ”

"He must be sitting in the car...... Wait, which one are you talking about? ”

Xiao Yongfei frowned, and only then did he realize that what Xiang Yun was referring to may not be Lu Jia. The blank sheet of paper he rescued left a total of three pieces of information, time, people and places. It was nine o'clock in the evening, the location was the Gemini star in front of them, and the characters were written down with several key features: a long ponytail, a black leather coat, and a red scarf.

Obviously, the identification method agreed upon by the two parties is either Lu Jia's own or the other party. Considering that Lu Jia is a celebrity, no matter how much he cross-dresses, he can't escape the eyes of others, and at the same time, he doesn't need to rely on these characteristics to be easily identified. This guy with a ponytail should be the other party with whom he agreed to meet.

The most important part of the "incident" is not reflected in that page of the memo, but it is also a matter of course, because these three elements are in the service of that "incident", and what to do, the person concerned knows from the beginning. Since this page was destroyed along with the Crystal Skull's criminal plan, it was not difficult for Xiang Yun and Xiao Yongfei to guess what it was pointing to.

That's selling stolen goods.

What Xiang Yun has been staring at is actually the mysterious person who is the buyer.

With Lu Jia's financial resources, what he lacked should not be the money obtained from the sale of cultural relics, perhaps his real purpose was to exchange this skull for some benefits. As for what this interest is, it can make people of Lu Jia's status and status tempted by it, and they do not hesitate to take risks...... The two of them are unknown for the time being.

But just like Xiang Yun's consistent view, as long as there are clues, then it's right to check it out. When all the clues are gathered, the truth will naturally come out. What is needed now is observation, thinking, and patience.

"I looked at the cars just now, and although the windows were not lowered, because of the backlight, the silhouette of the person inside could be faintly seen from here." Xiang Yun said, "I'm not 100% sure, but it doesn't seem that there is a single person with a ponytail in these cars." ”

"None of the bodyguards who got out of the car were either." Xiao Yongfei obviously also paid attention, "And the dozen or so sailors who went on the ship in the previous batch were all ordinary hairstyles, not the people Lu Jia was looking for." ”

"Could it be that they are actually among these people, but wait until they get on the boat and put on a wig or something?" He frowned.

Xiang Yun shook his head: "That would be too deliberate." If it's a passenger, it's fine, but if you change your outfit for a sailor, your colleagues will immediately notice that something is wrong. And do you think that such a thing as a black leather coat and a red scarf would be a sailor's outfit? ”

"So, this person should be a passenger."

She analyzed, "This kind of ship receives high-level guests, so the staff on the ship should all be uniformly dressed, so it is not realistic to use clothing as a feature." And this kind of transaction should be done in private, even the person who connects with him will want to act secretly and keep a special hairstyle, which is a subtle but distinctive feature......"

As she spoke, her voice grew smaller, and her eyes suddenly became sharper. What made her hold her breath stare was the Harley-Davidson that had just appeared on the other side of the dock. It is pitch black, and it seems to be connected with the driver's clothing, and the people and vehicles are one, with the piercing roar, it looks like a sense of death. But in this pure black, there is a touch of red color inserted and embellished, like a raging fire in the middle of the night.

Black leather jacket and red scarf. Xiang Yun and Xiao Yongfei glanced at each other tacitly, and then both locked their eyes on the rider's head. Unfortunately, the man wore a surrounding helmet from beginning to end, and he didn't remove it until he put the motorcycle on the boat, so they didn't have a chance to confirm the hairstyle.

However, this costume is enough.

"Alright, get ready for action." Xiao Yongfei said decisively.

But after all, he didn't know exactly how to do it. It was close to 8:20 p.m., and although there was still a little time before the boat sailed, it was quite embarrassing for them to do what they had to do next. Through the way these groups of people got on the ship just now, they have roughly figured out some of the rules of operation of this ship. For example, it must have requirements for the level of passengers, and the few people who went up just now were either riding luxury cars or driving limited edition Harley-Davidson motorcycles, and no one except their entourage walked up on their own feet. This means that the guests received on the ship are either rich or expensive, unless they can get a luxury car temporarily, or let some wealthy businessman help cover it, otherwise it is really not easy for them to get on the ship with their current appearance.

And the cargo appearance of this ship also makes it extremely difficult to invade outside. Under the cover of night, both of them had the confidence to swim close from a great distance and not alarm the people above. But the question is how do you get on the boat after approaching? Ordinary cruise ships are usually equipped with steps or ladders to make it easier for passengers to swim in the water, but the exterior of cargo ships is mostly smooth and rarely climbing, and even if they swim to the side of the ship, how to get up is a problem.

In this way, there is only one way to mix in the workforce. However, if they all acted collectively like the sailors just now, even if the two of them mixed in, they would be discovered immediately, and it would still not be feasible.

"Still, if it's two people, it's worth a try." Xiang Yun said suddenly.

"What do you mean?"

"Remember the couple we saw when we first arrived?" Xiang Yun said succinctly, "That man is wearing the same clothes as the sailors just now. ”

Xiao Yongfei was slightly stunned, and only came back to his senses two seconds later, and at the same time was surprised in his heart. Although he also remembered the couple under Xiang Yun's reminder, he couldn't remember the clothes the other party was wearing at this time, let alone connect that person with the group of sailors just now. In contrast, Xiang Yun not only remembered every detail he saw, but even took it out and compared it at all times, keenly noticing the connections.

The more you get to the details, the more the gap between the talents of the two is revealed.

But there's no time to frustrate him right now. Just like the sailors, the couple who got off the boat and walked around must have to report back before the boat leaves, perhaps ready to leave by this time. Seeing that Xiang Yun had already run quickly to the hut over there, Xiao Yongfei lifted his spirits and immediately followed.

The two rushed over with great momentum, but when they got closer, they all stopped in unison. They heard the faint sounds of groaning, wheezing, and the crash of heavy objects coming from the hut. Finally, with a high-pitched sigh, it all fell silent again. Xiao Yongfei stood at the door, his expression a little embarrassed. And Xiang Yun was already about to break down the door, but at this time, he could only stand by the door with a red face, listening to the whispers in the hut, and then the sound of rustling and dressing.

She listened and waited until she heard the footsteps approaching the door one after the other, and then she glanced at Xiao Yongfei opposite. The originally shy red instantly faded from her face, and was replaced by the usual bold look.

Xiao Yongfei nodded and raised his hand.

"I'm sorry."

At the moment when the other party opened the door, the two of them shot at the same time, and each of them restrained the couple one by one. Before the man and woman could react, they were each stunned by a knife and fell unconscious. Xiang Yun raced against time to pick up the woman and enter the house, while Xiao Yongfei dragged the man out of the door, closed the door with his hand, and then took off the man's work clothes to put them on himself.

At this moment, he heard the sound of Xiang Yun gasping from inside the door.
