Chapter 395 Pretext



"No, not 15 million, but 35 million."

"What?" Qian Bing exclaimed in surprise, and the others also gaped in astonishment.

"3,3,35 million US dollars?"

Even Professor Jia stuttered terribly.

Lu Yuan got up and walked towards the cargo hold, and the others quickly got up and followed.

Upon reaching the entrance, Lu Yuan said, "The place is too full inside, there's no room for you to go in, so you'll have to wait outside."

Everyone nodded in unison and waited outside.

Lu Yuan didn't close the cabin door. He went inside and walked to the innermost part of the cabin. Using his body and equipment as cover, he quickly released four suitcases and the two American men that he had previously stored in his space.

The two people were now corpses.

Lu Yuanxian took the box to the door and then pulled out the two corpses.

Before everyone could recover from the excitement of seeing the US dollars, someone spotted two corpses and was startled.

Lu Yuan clapped his hands and gave instructions to Su Tingxiao and the others.

“Carry these two people over and throw them into the sea.”

"What is this?" Su Tingxiao asked.

Lu Yuan explained, "These are two of those thugs. After hearing about their plan, I joined them and told them that we would definitely get caught if we did this, and it would be best to get the money and run away. I happen to have a boat."

“After the power outage that day, they broke into many shops and banks. I took advantage of the chaos and got $15 million to the port first. I told them to bring the equipment, money and other things onto the ship in 40 minutes.”

"So those things were all loaded onto the ship with the help of those madmen?" Cheng Yanqiu could hardly believe his ears.

“That’s right. I told them that the scientific equipment and data were very valuable, at least billions. When they heard that it was worth so much money, they naturally wanted to take it with them.”

"What's in the other wooden boxes? Why did they bring them on the ship?" Professor Jia asked with great curiosity.

They understand that the equipment and materials are valuable, and the food is essential for survival. But why bring so many wooden boxes? Are they filled with gold and silver treasures?

Lu Yuan simply had them bring over a wooden box and open it to take a look.

This was quite a surprise; I was almost speechless. But it also made sense—why bring things onto the ship?

Su Tingxiao and the others were extremely excited, and even took it out to examine it carefully, reluctant to put it down.

This box contains about ten machine guns, along with half a box of bullets.

"Director Lu, are all the other wooden crates filled with this?"

Su Tingxiao's eyes gleamed.

Lu Yuandao said, "I don't know the specifics either; you'll have to see for yourselves."

The group immediately went to check the wooden crate and returned an hour later.

Cheng Yanqiu and a group of researchers were still chatting. When they returned, they overheard Professor Jia asking Lu Yuan a question.

"There's something else I'm curious about. Logically speaking, with so much stuff to load onto the ship, there should be quite a few people involved in the unloading. How did you manage to keep those people off the ship? We didn't even see them when we boarded."
