So Lu Yuan and Han Wen wandered around the cabin, mainly checking for any leaks. After all, with a disassembled yacht like this, there would definitely be some places that had been deliberately damaged. The inspection procedure was necessary, and this was only the first inspection. A second, third, or even more inspections would be required when the ship was handed over, since the distance they had traveled was not small.
After Xiwen disembarked, the short, thin, and dark-skinned man did not follow. Lu Yuan noticed that the man's face did not look particularly happy, so he stepped forward and asked, "You don't seem very happy. What's wrong?"
"Ugh! Don't even mention it. This is just like some cars; the original price is one, but after adding options, it can cost twice as much! It's outrageous! They actually wanted ten million! Are they crazy for money? This lousy ship is in such a state; if I could find another ship right now, I wouldn't even consider buying it!"
Lu Yuan was also somewhat surprised. After all, ten million was an extremely high price. An ordinary person's monthly salary was less than a few hundred yuan. Ten million was enough for him to do many things. Obviously, this short, thin, and dark-skinned man was deliberately trying to scam him!
"The bare ship costs three million, which is already very expensive. Adding the existing features makes it even more expensive! Let's go talk to him!" Han Wen was a little indignant. After all, as an intelligence worker, she had an obligation to find a more suitable channel to buy the ship, but obviously this was not a good place.
Lu Yuan also felt that the price was a bit outrageous. The original price of three million was already quite high, but now it had increased by more than seven million. Obviously, this guy was trying to rip him off.
"Forget it, let's forget about this boat. Let's think of other ways to get out of here, and then we can go somewhere else and see if there are any better boats! Even if I bought these boats, I'm worried I won't be able to get them home safely! This is such a rip-off!"
Lu Yuan glanced into the distance, then turned and led the two away from the dock.
...
Meanwhile, the short, thin, and dark-skinned man sat in a cabin on the ship, watching with a sinister grin as a woman slowly starved to death on the spot, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
At that moment, a man next to him walked over and whispered a few words in his ear.
The short, thin, dark-skinned man immediately frowned: "Damn it, they're from District Five. How accurate is the information?"
"Accurate! We also picked up a signal from Sector Five, where a serious riot has broken out. I suspect those guys were carrying something valuable!"
"Hehe! That's good! Since they're here, we should treat them well! Go back and tell them to have a good time for a few days! Keep this woman for me!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll go make the arrangements!"
Watching the man leave, the short, thin, dark-skinned man couldn't help but lick his lips.
"Hmph! You still think it's too expensive! You won't think that way in a few days! You think you can just walk away from my little patch of land like that? No way!"
The shorter, thinner, and darker-skinned man felt the fire burning in his lower abdomen grow stronger the more he thought about it. He longed to grab Han Wen and have his way with him, but he knew that what he couldn't have was always the best. He could only suppress the fire in his heart and wait for the right opportunity.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan returned to their temporary residence and met up with the others, who had already tidied up the room.
The room wasn't very big, and the hygiene was terrible. There were drug addicts all around, their eyes glowing red. They looked at Lu Yuan and his group as if they were easy prey, but they were afraid of being grabbed by the short, thin, and dark-skinned guy, so they could only stand at a distance and watch.
Being stared at by this group of people, Lu Yuan had a bad feeling. Their accommodation was provided by the short, thin, and dark-skinned man, because this was the standard of accommodation that everyone who came to them to watch the ship received. However, it was far inferior to that in District 5, and even worse than the outer city of District 5.
Several people sat around a small table stained with oil, discussing what had happened that day and what to do next.
"The three of us just went to check, and the boat is really no good. It seems we have to find a way to leave here and find another island to see if we can get a boat! Otherwise, we'll just be stuck here."
Han Wen nodded and said, "That's right, it's too dangerous here. I have a feeling that this guy has ill intentions and won't let us leave so easily! Should I contact the other forces on the island?"
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "Hmm, that's fine. Sister Han, see if you can contact a few other forces. If they have ships, it will be much easier for us to leave!"
Xiwen nodded and said, "Yes, I always feel uneasy about staying here. I just saw some...some disgusting scenes on the ship. Those people don't treat people like human beings, they're really a bunch of beasts! We have to leave here as soon as possible!"
However, just as everyone was discussing, a series of footsteps suddenly came from outside, followed by a loud knocking on the door.
Xiwen was about to get up, but Lu Yuan pressed him down.
"I'll go check! You all sit down first!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan stood up, walked to the door, and opened it. There stood a tall man, reeking of alcohol, shirtless, but his eyes, like the others, were bloodshot. He was another drug addict.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
The other person ignored Lu Yuan and instead peeked inside. When he saw Han Wen, a lewd glint flashed in his eyes.
