Chapter 672: Stories within stories South Asia
The speedboat first arrived at a small transit island in the south 100 nautical miles from the port city, and then waited there until the evening to transfer to a large cargo ship bound for South Asia.
The cargo ships mainly transport "private goods" and travel between South Vietnam, Asia and other coastal islands all year round.
At the same time, it also transports passengers who are not convenient to appear in public.
Most of the operations of the "Li" branch are escort and transportation work, and occasionally there are also high-priced tasks.
For the sake of safety and secrecy, all nine members were fully armed without showing their faces, and the mission was mainly carried out using gestures and with corresponding code names.
The identity of the escorting VIP is unknown, and he is accompanied by an assistant.
Faced with the sudden appearance of an assistant, Ding Li and his team were obviously displeased. They secretly exchanged glances and only focused on the mission target.
The assistant's life or death is of no concern.
That afternoon, the team was divided into two groups, with the five people led by Ding Li and Dalianghao resting their strength.
The other four people, with Ade as the leader, took a hidden position and patrolled.
There was no movement in the wooden house all afternoon. After everyone had eaten the glutinous rice that was delivered, they waited until 7 o'clock in the evening, when the cargo ship appeared on the sea on time.
Because there was also "cargo" being escorted on the island, Ding Li arranged to board the ship at different times.
The cargo ship was divided into several classes of warehouses, and they only took three rooms, taking turns to protect the personal safety of the VIPs 24 hours a day.
After enduring a day and a night, the cargo ship arrived safely at the South Asia Jam Port at 10 am on the third day.
The journey was smooth and normal, but an accident happened when we were getting off the boat.
The dock was crowded with all kinds of cargo being loaded and unloaded. Suddenly, two women ran out from nowhere and rushed towards them.
The team members were all prepared and knocked the man to the ground before they could get close.
The dirty woman pinned to the ground struggled continuously, crying for help, “Please, save us!”
“Save us…”
"We were kidnapped! Someone is chasing us, let me go!"
Another barefoot woman also started shouting, her voice shrill and full of panic, her almond-shaped eyes staring at people with tears in them.
The two masked men in work clothes didn't care what they were shouting and just handed the people over to the people chasing them.
But Assistant Zeng, who had been unnecessary all the way, was overwhelmed with sympathy.
"Hey, wait, how about we help them? It seems like they met some bad guys."
Ding Li crossed his arms and ignored the women on the ground who came from nowhere. He was not prepared to help them at all. He was afraid that the mud splashed by their struggle would get on his leather boots, so he took a step back.
Zhao Sheng and Liang Hao were closely guarding the important person behind him. Although their expressions could not be seen, it was obvious that they were not the kind of people who would meddle in other people's business or seek trouble.
In a foreign country, with important tasks to accomplish, you need to know what is important and what is not.
There has been constant turmoil both inside and outside South Asia, with a variety of forces intertwined and intertwined.
It's easy to get into trouble just by picking up a cat here, let alone two women.
Ade had long been annoyed with this troublesome assistant, who often complained about the water being hot or cold on the cargo ship.
He simply fastened the shoulder straps of his coat and kicked hard at the wooden box next to him.
With a "bang", the woman who was crying on the ground stopped temporarily.
Seeing that the bodyguards ignored him, Assistant Zeng turned around and asked the VIP Arvin Chen, "Sir, from what they said, they don't look like South Asians. Should we help them?"
Arvin Chen didn't want to meddle in other people's business and was about to refuse, but the barefoot woman who was pressed to the ground somehow found the strength to struggle forward half a meter and reached out to grab his trouser leg.
He just held on to the person as if he were a lifeline, "Sir, please be kind and save us.
We were deceived and brought here. If you don't save us, we will not survive this night."
…
The two poor women cried and begged for help.
The tragic scene is moving.
But outsiders felt nothing, only something was wrong. Ding Li reminded in a cold voice: "Sir, it's time to go."
But in the blink of an eye, several thugs who were arresting people came over, bowed to them, and dragged the man aside to beat him with sticks.
"Run? Where do you want to run to now?"
"Hit me, hit me hard. If you don't suffer a little, you won't know who is the king!"
As several thugs beat him, shrill wailing sounds were heard.
The people at the dock were no longer surprised. Some even sat there and watched the show with sneers. The same things happened here almost every day, and people's minds had long been numbed.
A group of men in black strode away from the dock, leaving the wailing behind.
No one wants to cause trouble.
But someone just ate too much and had nothing to do, so he thought the journey was smooth and that South Asia was not as chaotic as he had imagined.
If he hadn't been accompanied by nine fully-armed bodyguards equipped with high-end assault rifles, he would have been smashed and crushed by those people while on the cargo ship.
People who would board those transnational smuggling cargo ships are those who are not convenient to reveal their identities, or those who have a dirty identity, so if something unexpected happens at sea, no trace of them can be found.
Assistant Zeng kept chattering all the way, secretly telling Arvin Chen that the bodyguards were cold-blooded and that they would definitely not care if something really happened.
The original gang rule of 7x2k is to have less contact with the mission personnel and basically not talk unless it is necessary.
This also led to Assistant Zeng talking endlessly, thinking he was right.
The voice was suppressed at first, but it became louder and louder later. Arvin Chen got tired of it and stopped them. This also indirectly showed that he was actually dissatisfied.
You spend money to hire bodyguards, and you have to act according to their moods in everything you do.
The car we had booked was late due to some force majeure activities. While waiting, we saw two women being dragged over from the dock.
I can only see the exhalation but not the intake, it seems like I can't be happy.
Arvin Chen finally spoke up when Assistant Zeng sighed again, "L, please rescue that person."
"The 9:1 escort ratio has been changed to 9:4. Saving one person will cost $30,000. If anything unexpected happens, you will be responsible for it yourself, sir."
Ding Li finished speaking concisely, and after getting confirmation again, he gestured to Dalianghao.
Although they were not familiar with this group of South Asians, they all knew more or less what each other did for a living and occasionally had intersections. After all, the Li branch was mainly responsible for escort and convoy work.
This scope of work includes people, goods and objects.
Each has its own rules.
Liang Hao walked over and spoke to them in South Vietnamese, "Five thousand dollars per person."
The lean thug in the lead frowned: "At least 20,000 US dollars."
He raised his foot and hooked the barefoot woman’s face, saying disdainfully: “With this look and figure, and the look of someone about to die, it’s only worth this much.
If you drag him back and leave him there for two days, he will be gone and you won’t get a cent.”
Liang Hao felt that five thousand dollars was too expensive. Women like this could be had for as little as twenty dollars a night on the island.
The leader and several of his men exchanged glances, and finally let go of the man, throwing him to the ground. They then walked to a place where the man was hidden and got the cash to end the matter.
Of the 50,000 U.S. dollars squeezed out from Arvin Chen, Ding Li took 10,000, and the other eight people each received 5,000 U.S. dollars.
It can be considered as overtime pay for the hard work that caused trouble.
Two days after arriving in South Asia, apart from escorting Arvin Chen to various meetings, the two women who stayed in the hotel only arranged for one person to be a hidden guard.
Apart from eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and healing, nothing unusual was found. On the third day, the secret meeting ended.
Considering the ongoing chaos, smashing, burning, marching and rioting in South Asia, the group boarded a cargo ship and returned to the port city that evening.
The two sisters who had endured humiliation and hardship finally got their chance.
