As the two were chatting, Wang Baodao, who had gone to scout the water source, returned.
Sure enough, a small Mi-type patrol boat was tied to the stern of the boat, indicating that it had been abandoned by Gui Tou Chang's men.
It's pointless to criticize Nie Yao now, because the mistake has already been made; all we can do is try our best to make amends.
Chen Ke calculated the distance and said, "They swam nearly 20 kilometers, and the ocean current was against them. Their physical strength is even more impressive than that of fish."
Wang Baodao said, "I've retrieved the toilet paper Nie Yao left behind, and I've erased all his footprints. If this is the only speedboat, then it's alright; we shouldn't have been discovered, and we can continue..."
Chen Ke said, "We can't rely on luck in battle. We need to move immediately. We're currently in the south. Let's go around to the north of the water source."
Ordinary people get cramps after swimming a few kilometers, but it's different on the island. People can swim over 20 kilometers silently. If even one escapes and reports back, Gui Tou Chang's men can swim over and kill him with a single shot. Wang Baodao replied that they would not use radios but instead drive speedboats one by one to relay the information.
Chen Rou had just arrived, having traveled overnight by boat. Chen Ke took her to his cabin to rest and told the group from Kowloon to be quiet and not make a fuss. He then told them to find Yue Zhongqi and have him take Hu Yong to go straight for sixty miles, using the yacht to conduct reconnaissance and find out the exact location of Gui Tou Chang.
Yue Zhongqi was naturally delighted to hear this, as he had never been on a yacht before in his entire life.
But he said, "Hu Yong is still young and inexperienced. Let Bao Dao come with me."
Chen Ke shook his head: "You know what I mean..."
Yue Zhongqi understood perfectly well, and said with a smile, "What did the commander promise you? That he would protect him, right?"
Chen Ke said, "It's only human nature. Besides, the leader only has one son, and he's usually quite impulsive."
Yue Zhongqi said, "That shouldn't be the case. You only came home for a few days when your child died."
However, although people may complain about various worldly interests, the work still needs to be done.
They've upgraded their weaponry; now they have a fleet of warships. All the ships need to change their mooring positions soon, and Yue Zhongqi should also set off to conduct reconnaissance. Because the draft has been adjusted, the entrances and exits are level with the small boats, so you can board them as soon as you open the door. But just as Yue Zhongqi and Hu Yong boarded the small boat and were about to close the door, Chen Rou came out: "Are you two going to do reconnaissance?"
Nie Zhao did not tell Chen Ke about his wife's pregnancy, because at this point, saying more would only increase Chen Ke's psychological burden, so it was better not to say anything. Of course, Yue Zhongqi and Hu Yong also did not know.
Yue Zhongqi knew best about Chen Rou's excellent reconnaissance work and asked with delight, "Did Captain Chen ask you to come along?"
Chen Rou put on sunglasses and said, "Captain Chen told me to sleep, but I want to sunbathe and sleep for a while. Besides, I'm quite familiar with that place, so let's go together. I'll keep watch for you."
Yue Zhongqi was overjoyed and reached out to catch the person: "Great!"
But there was a problem. When the small boat reached another warship, there was a huge, solid object wrapped in camouflage cloth. Chen Rou's eyesight wasn't failing her, and she recognized it immediately: "A yacht, and..."
Hu Yong was about to tell the truth, but Yue Zhongqi said, "Boss Nie gave it to us."
Hu Yong was experiencing the same awkward situation that Xiao Kuangzai went through every day, and he quickly turned his head away.
Chen Rou was focused on the mission. Besides, even though Nie Zhao had gone to the Philippines to find her last time, it was after the matter was over. He was afraid of death and would tremble at the sound of gunfire. In her opinion, he wouldn't dare to come to the high seas.
Borrowing a yacht is actually a very risky thing.
If the yacht were to be seized by Gui Touchang's men on the high seas, and Gui Touchang were to escape and hand it over to the Americans, it would be extremely powerful evidence in court, and Nie would face sanctions.
Thinking about all this, after boarding the yacht, Chen Rou asked Yue Zhongqi, "You have time bombs, don't you?"
There was only one Russian bodyguard on the speedboat. He could speak Cantonese, but he had a rough, uncouth accent. He patted the hood of the engine and said, "It's all installed. The remote control is in my hand."
If the yacht falls into the hands of Gui Touchang, it must be blown up, and the motor must be blown up, because the ship's number is on it. Only by blowing it up can the evidence be destroyed.
This Russian guy was also a case of re-employment after being unemployed. Chen Rou had met him a few times, but they hadn't chatted yet. Seeing him start the speedboat, she asked with a smile, "Is work tiring...?"
Even though she was holding onto the handle, she was almost thrown off because the Russians accelerated without any warning or preparation, essentially taking off from the spot.
He was bald, with a face full of fat, the kind of guy who wouldn't like anyone once he put on sunglasses.
Now, Chen Rou was even more surprised that Nie Zhao would come.
Given Mao's driving skills, Nie Zhao would probably be scared out of his wits before he even arrived.
She said she was just there to sunbathe and take a stroll.
But in reality, from the moment she boarded the yacht, she took charge of everything and gave orders.
After speeding for dozens of nautical miles, the lines of the mountains could be seen emerging from the sea cliffs, but then Maozi suddenly slammed on the brakes. Yue Zhongqi hurriedly asked, "Is something wrong?"
The Russian guy didn't say anything, he just pointed to something nearby.
Like Chen Rou, Yue Zhongqi was only focused on the distance and did not notice what was under his feet.
Looking down, even a rough man like him couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, it's so beautiful!"
This is international waters, a place rarely visited by people, and of course, there is no pollution. In the area closer to the islands, the seawater is crystal clear, with white sand below and fish swimming seemingly in the air above, a breathtaking sight.
