"We were discussing how to resolve Zhang Zuo's issue," Brother Qi walked in and looked at the knife in Yongren's hand. "You came here by yourself. Are you saying that you came here to find this knife?"
“Yes…” Yongren hid his hand that was not holding the knife behind his back.
…
As an undercover agent, Yongren carried a small knife on his body when he boarded the ship this time.
He originally wanted to bring a communication device, but he was afraid of being discovered, and he left in a hurry that night, so he didn't have time.
At this point, we have to talk about how he followed Brother Qi onto the boat. Brother Qi was not the leader of the gang on the shore that added fresh water to the boat, but he was the second in command. The main business of this gang was selling water.
Ships need fresh water, not just for drinking, but also for daily life. The entire port needs a lot of it. Ordinary fishing boats are fine, sometimes they can bring some water from home, but ocean-going ships need several tons to dozens of tons each time.
The prices they sell are not expensive, but they dominate the dock and often cause trouble to prove their status.
For ordinary fishermen, when the prices are similar, water doesn’t cost much, so they generally won’t have conflicts with them.
But such a big wharf is really profitable, and there are often people from outside who want to compete, so we have to hire some people to intimidate others.
Yongren's time here is not short, but not long either. He is barely a "cultured person", knows a little English, is relatively smart and courageous, and is trusted by the boss. He was sent here temporarily by the boss for this voyage.
After getting on the boat, Brother Qi also checked his men. At that time, Yongren felt that Brother Qi did not trust him very much. After all, among the three of them, he was the only one who was not brought up by Brother Qi.
Just when preparing food for Bai Song, Yongren took a big risk. When he went to the kitchen to fill the buoy with water, he was almost discovered. Fortunately, there were a lot of buoys on the boat, and Brother Qi didn't pay much attention when he passed by. Later, Brother Qi went to talk to Wei Ge, and he had a good opportunity to give the ball to Bai Song.
The fact that he cried just now must have made Brother Qi suspicious.
However, Brother Qi did not find Yongren with this knife when he boarded the ship. Therefore, Brother Qi was also very surprised to see Yongren find a knife.
Is it really to come here to find a knife?
…
"What are you holding in that hand!" The bald man suddenly saw Yongren hiding one of his hands behind his back.
This suddenly made the atmosphere tense.
Brother Qi winked at the bald man, signaling him to speak in a lower voice.
Wei Ge's cabin was slightly larger than Qi Ge and Yong Ren's previous cabins because five people had lived in it before. But even so, it still seemed very crowded when Qi Ge and Baldy came in together.
“Brother Qi…” Yongren looked at the bald man with some fear.
"Take it out." Brother Qi's face was grim.
Yongren gritted his teeth and slowly stretched out his hand, which contained two small medicine bottles.
"Anesthetic?" The bald man's momentum suddenly dropped: "What do you want with this?"
"I..." Yongren said nothing and lowered his head.
"It's okay, go ahead." Brother Qi said.
"I brought it for..."
Yongren had just said a few words when Brother Qi interrupted him: "Don't tell me you want to refill the anesthetics for those half-dead people in the fish tank!"
In terms of time, the last injection was given in the evening, and now it is almost time, but no one is in the mood to do this, because you can tell with your butt that these people are basically useless.
Even the sturdy man who was tied up was dead, and everyone could see that before Zhang Zuo took action, the tied man had almost no breath left.
Speaking of which, Brother Qi still didn't trust Yongren, so he interrupted Yongren deliberately. If Yongren intended to use this reason to stall him, then his words would definitely get stuck. This was also a psychological tactic.
But Yongren didn't intend to say that: "I want to give it to the captain and the first mate..."
"Who the hell is driving the boat?" The bald man was a little confused: "What are you thinking!"
Brother Qi had no idea why Yongren planned this. He didn't continue talking, obviously wanting to hear Yongren's reasons.
"Brother Qi, actually, kidnapping Zhang Zuo is just a temporary solution and it is meaningless. We are now stable but cannot solve the specific problem. Let's talk about our previous analysis. Once we connect after daybreak, will it be useful if we kidnap Zhang Zuo? I think this little brat doesn't have any ability." Yongren said.
"Is this useful?" Brother Qi asked calmly.
"Deterrence!" Yongren said, "We are not equal to him now! Deterrence is not equal! I don't know what kind of force he is supporting, but that's the high seas. Is it new to have a few firepower? What can we use to fight him?"
After saying that, Yongren became excited: "We can't go any further. The high seas is both a hope and a desperate situation for us! I plan to hijack the captain and the first mate and give them anesthetics when they leave our waters at dawn tomorrow. Our ship will be immobile for at least eight or nine hours. Zhang Zuo has no choice but to have his men come in from the high seas. In a place like this, they will definitely not dare to kill us. My goal is not high either. We only ask that they bring us two tons of fuel when they come. We will wait for the captain to wake up and then we will drive by ourselves!"
"There's no need to do that. Can't we just discuss it with the captain and others and do this now?" The bald man didn't understand.
"Impossible! They are too far away now, they definitely dare not come in! And if we can't reach an agreement tomorrow, we will be too passive! Just knock out the captain and the first mate, burn our boats, and leave Zhang Zuo and the people behind him helpless!" Yongren's voice was getting louder and louder, almost drowning out the storm outside: "It won't work if we don't force them hard! I guarantee that they must want to come in and take Zhang Zuo away. It's not easy for them to change positions for Zhang Zuo! Besides, we don't need to give the captain an anesthetic shot, half an injection will do. In short, we have to show this kind of deterrence!"
"Keep your voice down." Brother Qi raised his hand. He suddenly realized that Yongren's method was still very good, except that it would increase the risk of being caught tomorrow.
The reason why this couldn't be done before was because Wei Ge was too afraid of the police. In fact, on this ship, if caught by the police, they would definitely be shot, except for Wei Ge and Zhang Zuo who had just "killed" Bai Song. The others would be sentenced to life imprisonment at most.
Now, at least Brother Qi thinks it is feasible. This is much better than going directly to Zhang Zuo's checkpoint tomorrow. He suddenly realized that it is his own country that can bring him a sense of security.
"No wonder big brother asked you to come over." Brother Qi patted Yongren's shoulder with a smile, and the crisis was temporarily resolved.
But at this moment, the satellite phone suddenly rang.
