Three days later.
The large ship from Shanghai was towed ashore.
Then it was lifted up by a gantry crane, and the entire bottom of the ship was covered with a thick layer of various shells and algae.
Looking at these thick objects, Lu Yuan realized that this thing had been at sea for an unknown period of time.
The ship's load-bearing capacity has been severely affected by these shells and algae, so it will take a long time to clean them up.
So Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan immediately began the cleaning work. The ship was huge, over a hundred meters long, making them feel like the work was endless.
Fortunately, the heart-shaped potion developed by Lu Yuan to remove the attached substances was very effective.
It just has an unpleasant smell when you spray it on, but after spraying it for three days in a row, the residue falls off on its own, revealing the original appearance.
Over several days, nearly twenty tons of debris were cleared. Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan drove a truck together and loaded all of it onto the truck.
Then, a layer of green paint was brushed onto the surface of the coating, making the ship look brand new. After completing this work, Lu Yuan went to the captain's direction and explained the situation to the boss before leaving.
However, when he entered the cabin, he sensed that something was wrong.
The comments mentioned that the shipyard was very noisy every day, but today it was unusually quiet.
Originally, Lu Yuan planned to drive the car in directly, but upon hearing this situation, he quickly parked the car some distance away.
He quietly got out of the car, then hid among the distant pile of rocks and glanced in the distance.
Several cars were parked outside the shipyard, and the cars clearly belonged to the prison.
"Damn it, could it be that the people at the prison have found out about me?"
Lu Yuan secretly pondered for a moment, then glanced around.
Suddenly he saw that not far from him, there were several people hiding in the distance, secretly observing.
I had a fairly good relationship with these people; they were all from the shipyard.
So he crept closer, and only when he got right up to them did the others notice him.
When they tried to run away, they turned around and found that it was Lu Yuan. The group was so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat and complained.
Lu Yuan approached them and asked softly, "What's going on? Why are the prison people here?"
The group looked at Lu Yuan and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "We don't know. This morning, the boss was fine, and then suddenly these people came and started arresting people."
We were all terrified. The whole factory was in chaos. A few of us were afraid of getting involved, so we ran over here to secretly observe and keep the others informed. "By the way, why are you back? Did you finish the work over there?"
"Yes, it's all been taken care of. Have you seen what happened? What did the people here do to the boss?"
"We don't know yet. They're probably searching the factory; they might have found some fugitives!"
"A fugitive has been discovered?"
"Don't you know? It's a wanted notice, a wanted criminal! They say some prisoner escaped from a high-security prison, and their investigation has led them to this place!"
Lu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.
It turns out that these investigation teams had never let their guard down; they had been investigating themselves all along.
I never expected that they would actually track me down to this place.
After a moment's thought, he said, "Alright, you guys keep watching. There shouldn't be any problems. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now!"
Lu Yuan dared not linger here any longer; every second he stayed was dangerous. He had to hurry back to find Anna and hide.
It would be best to send the ship out to sea. Once the ship is out there, the people in the prison won't be able to do anything to you.
If the boss really leaks my information, I might be finished.
Upon returning to the shipyard, Lu Yuan immediately sought out Anna.
Seeing Lu Yuan return, Anna was slightly taken aback: "Why are you back so soon? Did you get your salary?"
But Anna sensed something was off about Lu Yuan's expression the next second, so she quickly leaned over and whispered, "Is something wrong?"
As Lu Yuan walked, he answered, "Yes, I just saw the prison people coming. They're already waiting at the shipyard. I'm worried my identity will be exposed. If that happens, all our efforts will be in vain. Let's get on the ship right now and find a way to get it to leave ahead of time!"
Anna was stunned: "What? Leave early? The captain definitely won't agree!"
"It's okay, he'll agree. Let's get on the boat first!"
Anna didn't hesitate any longer and followed Lu Yuan up the ladder to the ship. The deck had just been towed, and the crew was carrying out the final cleaning work on the ship.
There's one last shipment. I'll be there soon. Once it arrives, their ship will immediately set sail for Shanghai.
The captain leaned back in a comfortable chair, sunbathing through the UV-protective glass. The sunglasses on his face and the headphones in his ears spoke volumes about his joyful mood.
Just then, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and then the light was blocked.
He opened his eyes and glanced at Lu Yuan. When he saw it was Lu Yuan, he took off his sunglasses.
"Hey bro, is your work done? You can go to the finance department to collect your paycheck now!"
The captain thought Lu Yuan had come to ask for his wages, so he looked up and asked.
However, Lu Yuan shook his head: "No, no, no, I'm not here for money. I have a request. Are you carrying any contraband on your ship?"
The captain suddenly tensed up. He looked around and then whispered a shushing sound: "How can you say such things?"
Lu Yuan gave a knowing smile, then pointed to the area under his nails: "Don't worry, I haven't told anyone about this, but you might be in some danger."
"When I went to collect my wages, I saw people from the prison. I suspect they're mixed up with law enforcement, and if they search your area, it could cause problems! I noticed that several factories nearby were being searched, and I was worried it would implicate you, so I told you in advance!"
Upon hearing this, the captain quickly stood up: "Thank you so much, brother! I'll notify the ship right away!"
