032 tankers
When the girl he liked openly hugged another man in public, and the two were only meeting for the first time, even if the man was wearing a full set of protective clothing, Ma Tian, as a stinky young man who thought he was still a little charming, the mood at that time really couldn't be described as seven up and eight or five tastes, he repeatedly warned himself to be calm and maintain the demeanor that a young talent should have, and that stinky face was still so stiff that the group landed on the research ship and waited to refuel the helicopter.
Then, he was slapped the back of the head by Zhang Fu.
"Boy! The weather forecast has confirmed that there will be a tropical cyclone formation near the tanker in the next 24 hours, so we are very urgent! I endured you all the way, and you still can't control your mood, so you can wait on the research ship! ”
"Ah, yes!" Ma Tian woke up in horror, and was about to go on a mission, and it would be too undeserved for him to be so childlike and endanger the lives of himself and his comrades.
When she was ashamed, Yang Xiaohua dragged her duffel bag to Ma Tian's side, and she didn't look at Ma Tian directly, and said lightly: "How can I have something to do with him!" You're a! Don't get distracted while you're on a mission, don't let me underestimate you, Ma Tian. ”
Well, I must admit that sometimes a girl's ambiguous words are enough to make a single dog muster up courage, Ma Tian is no exception, he suddenly felt that the sky was blue, the clouds were white, and even the strange smell of heavy diesel and electronic equipment on the scientific research ship seemed so lingering and compassionate, which made people feel excited.
"I'm sorry." Wang Chen saw the interaction between the two in his eyes, and said in a muffled voice when Yang Xiaohua walked past him.
Yang Xiaohua stopped, her Danfeng eyes revealed a hint of helplessness, "It's me who should apologize, it has nothing to do with you, I'm just excited, I didn't expect you to survive after the explosion of the sanatorium, it's a pity that Han Li ......"
"Don't think about it so much, how to say, if it wasn't for your help, the two of us wouldn't have lived until now, don't put pressure on yourself in this world, life or death depends on your luck, and it has nothing to do with others." Wang Chen's voice was also full of helplessness, he would not persuade people, besides, he couldn't even see through this fucking thing, and even broke the jar and ran to participate in the life loss experiment, it was already difficult to say such a few words.
Of course, Yang Xiaohua knew that action was imminent, and it was inappropriate to pull these old facts, so she patted Wang Chen on the shoulder and tried to show a bright smile, "No matter what, I will always keep an eye on you." ”
"Yes." Wang Chen saw Zhang Fu coming over with a gun bag, hurriedly greeted him, and said politely: "Captain Zhang......"
"Hey, don't say it politely, it's about to become a grasshopper on a rope, this is your firearms and equipment and door-breaking explosives, hurry up and check, don't have a problem, oh, by the way, I haven't had time to ask carefully, the boss said that you have received firearms and explosives training, and you have no actual combat experience, to what extent? Don't brag, don't be modest, I need to be accurate. ”
"Well, the rapid-fire ten-meter moving target of the pistol can be used on the target, and the rapid-fire twenty-five-meter moving target of the shotgun can also ensure that the gun is on the target, and in terms of blasting, grenades and explosives have been used."
"Oh, that's good, you've touched a gun before?"
"No, the instructor of the training camp taught well." Wang Chen said this, thinking of the devil instructor, his heart was still a little hairy, the instructor was too ruthless, the two of them just pulled the trigger and their index fingers bled out, and now they haven't completely grown up, of course, the price is also worth it, at least look at Zhang Fu's reaction, and he is quite satisfied with the degree of the gun on target.
That is, when Hu Chun shot Aunt Hui, at such a close distance, didn't he collapse on the ceiling with one shot? It is already quite difficult to be able to shoot at a certain distance in such a short period of time.
Before re-boarding the helicopter, the two special service teams led by Zhang Fu and Zhou Feng were vaccinated and put on a full set of protective clothing, as for Wang Chen and Liu Shuhuan, they were just the opposite, after the helicopter took off, their protective clothing could be taken off, and the moment they took off the protective clothing, Wang Chen really felt light.
Naturally, he didn't feel anything through that layer of plastic, but now, Wang Chen felt the saltiness of the seawater, the hot sunlight, and the cold touch of the shotgun in his hand again, and his mood relaxed like never before, his eyes were half-closed, his head was empty, and he didn't think about anything. His state fell into the eyes of the other agents, attracting a few appreciative smiles, and after a while, the cabin was completely 'quiet', except for the roar of the engines that filled the entire cabin.
When the helicopter pilot, the navy elite with the temporary code name Bat announced the imminent landing on the public channel, Wang Chen opened his eyes again, looking through the porthole, on the calm sea with rippling blue waves, a black-brown spindle-shaped hull was constantly enlarged, and in front of the stern tower, a standard helicopter lifting platform gradually became clear, although the H on it was a little mottled and blurred, it was no problem to mark the landing.
The helicopter shook slightly, and before it stopped, Wang Chen had already jumped off the side of the plane with his own team of security agents, and went straight to the entrance of the oil tanker under the tower according to the route that had been determined.
Fang Qiang, who has no experience in taking off and landing at sea, served as the co-pilot of the helicopter for this operation, and was accompanied by a marine expert on the ship, including the main pilot bat, after the three of them fixed the helicopter, they would clean the tanker tower and be ready to evacuate with the security agents at any time.
Entering the state of battle, whether it is Ma Tian, a sunny young man who hangs his son, or Wang Chen, who looks slightly better and has an ordinary temperament, they all cheered up their spirits, especially Wang Chen, whose physique has been strengthened and does not need to put on bloated protective clothing, he looks quite capable in a standard special service uniform, and ran to the entrance of the tanker's cabin in broken steps, took out the sticky explosives as planned, pressed them on the keyhole, and followed the old dog behind him a few steps late, but the time was just right, the old dog turned sideways, revealing the pocket on the side of the backpack, Wang Chen pulled out the timed detonator and inserted it into the explosives and pressed the switch, and shouted in his mouth: "Detonate in three seconds!" ”
Well, this is another benefit of taking Wang Chen on a mission, old dogs, these security agents don't have to lower the standard of hand protection for some delicate tactical moves, such as installing explosives.
The roar passed, confirming that the hatch had been completely blown open, and after waiting for a few seconds to confirm that the air inside contained enough oxygen, Wang Chen broke off the luminous instrument on his helmet, picked up the shotgun, and rushed into the hatch first!
He was greeted by a stench of indescribable origin, even if Wang Chen was wearing a simple three-proof mask, this stench could penetrate into Wang Chen's nasal cavity through the filtration of the carbon box, and then came fragments of corpses, it seems that Ma Tian had deduced correctly before, a month or even more of stuffy tank baking, so that most of the corpses in the tanker were dry and dehydrated, and a simple door blasting made it fragmented.
Stepping over the corpse and entering the second open hatch, everything in front of Wang Chen has turned dark green, and a corridor leading to the stern of the ship appeared in front of him, and a hatch opened up on one side of the corridor every ten meters or so, Wang Chen opened the nearest hatch, which contained several storage beds, messy clothes and daily necessities, and a photo of a playboy or a third-edition girl on the wall, it seemed that this was a crew bedroom.
As expected, the oil tanker may be converted into three parts by the drug cartel, except for the power area of the bottom warehouse, the living quarters of the crew and workers under the oil tanker tower, and the middle and front parts are naturally the factory area for the production of various illegal drugs.
Five hatches were opened in a row, and the situation in the cabin was almost the same, but no one dared to relax, God knows what would be in the next hatch. In addition to the occasional dried corpse, the cabin is full of daily necessities, judging from the appearance and clothing of the dried corpse, all of them are crew members, because they generally do not see external injuries, two of the fingers have obvious scratching and wear marks, the preliminary judgment is that the zombie pathogen not only contaminated the illegal drugs transported from the oil tanker, but also infected the crew here, perhaps through the air conditioning system, the initial concentration is not enough, after the medicine is shipped out, these crew members began to get sick and turned into zombies, Later, in a month-long smoldering steam, it became a dried corpse.
Three more hatches were opened in a row, but the situation still did not change, and when the ninth hatch was opened, Wang Chen was stunned.
At the door of this cabin, there were four or five shriveled corpses lying indiscriminately, unlike the dried corpses of the previous crew, they were obviously all women, and they were not clothed, and the cabin was covered with curtains, and when a curtain was lifted at random, there was a double bed inside.
Obviously, this is the place to address the needs of the crew.
It's just that whether these women are voluntary or forced, Wang Chen can't tell.
"It's safe inside." The old dog swept around the suite, and when he saw that Wang Chen was still a little stunned, he patted him on the shoulder, "Don't think too much, they are all dead, these women's hands and feet have no ropes, if they are forced to get on the boat, what you see now is not a curtain, but an iron cage and chains." ”
"Yes, let's go." Wang Chen nodded and stepped out of the hatch.
In addition to the two-meter-high crew living quarters, in the relatively wide and tall cabin at the front of the tanker, there are not only a biplane seaplane, a small submarine and two speedboats, but also two slide booms. Obviously, the drug cartels are very shrewd, and if they park these transports on the deck of the tanker and tell others that this is a rather suspicious tanker, then simply use the hydraulic movable deck and the boom to hide the transports below the first deck, as long as they do not enter the cabin, even if they stand on the deck, it is impossible to find anything in the tanker.
The two teams of agents successfully converged next to the boom, and Zhou Feng's team encountered a situation similar to Zhang Fu's side, finding more than a dozen shriveled corpses, oil storage tanks for storing fuel, and nothing else worth searching.
Dry corpses don't bite, and Liu Shuhuan, who was still a little soft-handed and soft-footed, looks a lot more energetic at the moment, putting on a look of 'Lao Tzu is not afraid that Lao Tzu is very bullish' - as a little clever street gangster, he is really easy to be seen through.
"The oil tanker structure drawings I collected before are completely useless?" Zhang Fu shook his head, and the sultry temperature in the cabin began to suppress the air conditioning system that came with the protective suit, and the whole person was soaked in the air above 30 degrees Celsius, and no one would be comfortable.
"Team Zhang, the power system and structure, the drug trafficking group should not move, so if you look at it in detail, the gangways on both sides of the front cabin are still the road leading to the lower cabin and the power area, but I don't know where these four entrances lead." Zhou Feng, as the deputy leader of this operation, reminded him appropriately.
"Tower Squad, what's going on over there?"
"The tower team, the bats reported, a corpse was found on the south side of the tower, four completely shriveled corpses were found in the tower, everything was normal in the tower, all the equipment was in a state of power-off, the final reading of the instrument showed that the tanker still had about 26% of the fuel, the captain, the ship expert said that the passage of this kind of oil tanker was connected by the two main and two vice-layers, and these South Americans were probably not interested in transforming it into a labyrinth."
"That's right, you lead the team to the left, and I'll lead the team to the right." There was nothing dangerous about the boatload of dried corpses, and Zhang Fu made a decision without thinking much about it.
The two teams immediately separated, Zhang Fu was still led by Wang Chen, from the passage on the right side to the second floor of the tanker, the situation in the cabin on the second floor made people a little ridiculous, the original expected various pharmaceutical equipment assembly lines or zombies or something, the two teams did not see it at all, the entire second floor was closed, along the outer corridor until the bow of the ship, only to find two large, two small and four air pressure doors, simply warped a few times, did not move. It seems that the entire second floor of the tanker has been closed into a separate compartment by the air pressure doors that automatically lock after the power is cut off, unless explosives are used or the oil tanker restores power, don't know what is behind the four air pressure doors.
It should be said that the drug trafficking group has fully taken into account the situation that the oil tanker has been infiltrated and attacked, assuming that the Interpol or special forces want to enter the oil tanker, the first thing they want to do is to control the tower and cut off the power supply of the entire oil tanker, which is the standard operating procedure in the anti-terrorism manual, the drug trafficking group naturally has to do the opposite, as long as the oil tanker loses power supply, the air pressure door will automatically close and pressurize, so as to buy time for the group personnel in the second floor cabin to escape.
In addition, the first floor of the cabin is full of low-grade crew living quarters, from which it can be inferred that the leaders and important personnel on the tanker must be active in the second-floor cabin on weekdays, and once things are not right, after they close the second-floor cabin, most of them will escape from the tanker through a hidden passage.
After weighing a few seconds between blowing up the air pressure door and restoring the power supply, Zhang Fu decided to restore the power supply, God knows what is the situation behind the air pressure door, in case there is a flammable and explosive gas, such a closed environment, the entire cabin may explode into the sky, or it is relatively safe to restore the power supply, no matter how crazy the drug trafficking group is, it will not explode at the moment when the oil tanker buries explosives in the four sides and waits for the power supply to be restored, right? Even if there is an explosive device, after the air pressure door is closed, the countdown should start to prepare for the explosion of the ship, and it will explode early, not a month later.
Leaving Zhou Feng's team on standby in front of the air pressure door on the second floor, Zhang Fu led the others into the bottom bilge of the oil tanker, and according to the guidance of the ship's experts, he found the generator set of the oil tanker for the first time, and it took some effort to start the generator set.
"Team Zhang, the voltage on the tower is normal, do you confirm that the power supply of the whole ship is restored?"
"Wait a minute." Zhang Fu took the C4 from the secret service, placed it in a weak position at the bottom of the ship, and turned his head to call Zhou Feng, "Team Zhou, is there any movement on your side?" ”
"The emergency light is on, but the air pressure door has not moved!"
"Let's get power."
"Okay, three, two, one, close."
There was a slight buzzing sound and electric current in his ears, and then, the LED lights in the cabin and corridor gradually brightened, Wang Chen raised the night vision device in his left eye, and looked at the cabin that had returned to normal color, different from the expected rust color, the inside and outside of the cabin plus the floor, are all milky yellow, or rather, it is a color that turns yellow after the white paint is old, if you exclude those shriveled corpses and guns scattered on the ground, this is just an ordinary cabin.
Just as Wang Chen and his party were about to go back to the second floor to meet Zhou Feng's team, the LED lights in the corridor suddenly began to flicker, and in a few seconds, the white light turned into a red light that flashed regularly!
"Bats! The LED light turns red and flashes regularly! What does this mean? ”
"Team Zhang, the tower computer has just been started, and it still needs time to self-check!" Before the computer finished checking itself, the answer was already obvious, the sound of running water came from the bow of the ship, and then the tanker sprinkler system was activated, and a large amount of seawater sprayed down!
"Bats! Find the switch for the fire sprinkler and turn it off! Come on! Zhang Fu gave the order, while leading the team members to climb to the second floor cabin, anyone who was drenched in the stuffy cabin will not feel good, but the only people who were poured were Wang Chen and Liu Shuhuan, and the rest of the security agents who wore a full set of protective clothing were just disturbed by the sprinkler system, and their actions were affected.
"Captain, the computer shows that the control switch of the sprinkler system has been short-circuited!"
"Think of a way!"
"Wait a minute, Captain! I found the manual switch for the sprinkler system and I went to deal with it right away! ”
"As soon as possible!"
Zhang Fu and Zhou Feng are almost in unison, the oil tanker's sprinkler system is specially designed to prevent fire and explosion inside the oil tanker, this thing is not the kind of small device that sprays water in ordinary hotels, although the name is the same, the effect is very different, the hotel is water, the oil tanker is a real water spray! And there's a lot of traffic! If this is drowned in an oil tanker by the sprinkler system, or sunk by the sprinkler system, not only will people laugh to death when it spreads, but I am afraid that all the security agents who participated in the mission and survived would be ashamed to commit suicide.
Fortunately, the manual switch worked, and the gushing sea water gradually stopped, and in less than three minutes, the water in the second and third cabins had already reached the calves of everyone, and there was continuous sea water flowing down from the upper layer, and it was estimated that it would take some time for the sea water to flow to the bottom cabin on its own.
"It seems that someone was trapped in the cabin after the outbreak of the epidemic, and tried to short-circuit the sprinkler system to survive, but unfortunately the tanker was completely cut off, and the short-circuited system was useless." Zhang Fu shook the water stains on the gun and speculated.
Is it thirsty to death in an oil tanker? It's a really tragic way to die.
After the power was turned on, the air pressure door at the bow of the ship lost its pressure as previously inferred, and it was opened with a light push, Wang Chen and Liu Shuhuan walked in front with shotguns, and cautiously walked into the second floor cabin, the old dog and Ramen walked at the end, they picked up their rifles left and right, and completely smashed the hydraulic support arms on both sides of the air pressure door to prevent the oil tanker from powering off for the second time, and the air pressure door was closed again, so the fun would be great.
Under the milky white light, if it weren't for the gentle shaking under his feet and the undrained seawater, Wang Chen would have thought that he had come to a high-level laboratory, and the tattered and gloomy drug-making scene in the TV movie did not exist here, the anti-static and anti-slip brown rubber floor was spread everywhere in sight, two production lines and several packaging equipment, neatly placed, and the warning range was marked with different colors of tape around the equipment to prevent accidental injury.
Obviously, this is the production and packaging workshop of all kinds of drugs and drugs, there are almost dozens of dried corpses lying in the workshop, after being washed by the spray system, all the drugs on the packaging table are diluted into the water, so that the residual sea water here is strange gray-white, and even gray-white mud has been formed in some places, Zhang Fu grabbed some thin mud and rubbed it on the gloves, with his experience, it is impossible to judge what ingredients these are through the gloves, The slightly spicy and strange smell of the filtered air led him to a not-so-good conclusion.
"Wang Chen, Liu Shuhuan, you two bring masks, these muds are likely to be liquefied stimulants, once evaporated, the gas mask may not be effective."
"Okay." Wang Chen didn't say a word, held his breath, took off his gas mask, took out the gas mask he was carrying, and put it on.
Seeing that Liu Shuhuan had also finished changing clothes, Zhang Fu continued: "Zhou Feng's team, three people stayed here to collect the finished products they made, maybe they have been contaminated with pathogens. ”
Passing through the isolation door of the processing workshop, looking at the white and clean operating table and the many experimental equipment that cannot be named, are surrounded by eight translucent huge sterile rooms, just looking at the area of several hundred square meters, it can be said that the middle of the entire oil tanker is a laboratory.
"Wang Chen, Liu Shuhuan, Ma Tian, the three of you will continue to search with me, and the rest will stay to find pathogen samples in the laboratory."
The size of the laboratory exceeded everyone's expectations, and Zhang Fu had to arrange it this way in order to shorten the search time.
Behind the sterile room are two inactivation chambers, through the corridor in the middle of the inactivation chamber, the left side should be the cold room, the right side is the material storage room, the door of the cold room is ajar, there are several broken dried corpses lying inside and outside, judging from the clothes of these dry corpses, they are all experimenters, judging from the lodging position, it should be the survivor who escaped into the cold room in the round-up of zombies, but because the temperature of the tanker soared after the power failure, he had to come out of the cold room and risk his life.
The four of them continued to walk, passing through two fireproof doors, one in front of the other, and one in the other to the aft cabin.
This is supposed to be the living quarters of the group's senior staff, and the decoration is really magnificent, full of the smell of South American nouveau riche, and with those dried corpses soaked in the seawater, it makes people feel the strange beauty of South American voodoo praise death.
It is not an exaggeration to describe this place as resplendent, except for the gold handrails and golden doorknobs, the most arrogant decoration is the two short gold AK74s hanging in the innermost cabin, and there are four spare magazines and bullet boxes on the fireplace where the AK is placed, and even the spare magazines are shining!
"What a trench." Liu Shuhuan couldn't help but uncover his mask and spit on it, he felt that if he didn't make some small movements to divert his attention, he couldn't help but grab the two AKs in his hands.
Liu Shuhuan's careful thoughts, Zhang Fu still can't see it? He reminded in a cold voice: "This kind of place, the more valuable things look like, the more don't move, you have all heard of the madness of the drug cartels, I bet, as long as you move those two AKs, the chance of us being blown up in the sky is greater than eighty percent." ”
These words got into Liu Shuhuan's head, and the greed that could not be suppressed suddenly dissipated like spring snow, he couldn't help but shudder, and changed the topic: "Team Zhang, this should be the last cabin, what should I do next?" ”
"The next step is the water mill......"
"Team Zhang's feet!"
