In the next few days, Qiao Wen has been somewhat inexplicably distracted, always feeling that something big will happen, his mind is not just going to pop up the last time Lin Zi Rui casually said that sentence - if Chen Canaan disappeared?
He knew very well that if this was not an assumption, then it meant that Chen Canaan was in danger and could die at any time. He and Chen Canaan were not afraid of danger, and had encountered all kinds of crises over the years, but this was the first time that they wanted to be so passive, because they never knew in what way the danger would occur - if there was really such a thing, then Lin Zi Rui's method of trying to make Chen Canaan disappear would certainly not be possible to be predicted by himself.
But now that we have come this far, it can be said that we have reached the final step, as long as we follow the vine and feel the first melon, the rest will not be difficult.
If Chen Canaan suddenly breaks up with Zhong Kevin and returns to his side, not only will he reveal his motives for the past few days, but all of his efforts will be wasted, and all of the suffering he has endured will be in vain.
Besides, with Chen Canaan's temperament, he would never give up just because of the danger, and even after realizing that Lin Zi Rui wanted to kill him, I'm afraid he would gamble even more on this breath.
Qiao Wen's thinking began to be disorganized, until he remembered Lin Zi Rui's sand table, sitting on the hilltop, the commander-in-chief, and then gradually calmed down again. He is not interested in being a remote command commander, but he also does not want to be played in the palm of the hand, to become a part of someone else's game.
The deal is scheduled for one night in the middle of the month.
Zhong Kevin is not a much shrewd and resourceful person, but he can do this business, so many years did not turn over, in addition to the Zhong family broad young man this identity as a cover, more or less a little bit of heart skill. So before the transaction, the only information that Qiao Wen got was that the goods they traded were hidden in a cargo ship that came from Southeast Asia.
Zhong Kevin will take the yacht out to sea that night, board the cargo ship to inspect the goods, after which the cargo ship arrives at the pier, and the goods follow the ship's cargo, quietly flowing into the harbor city. That is to say, in this transaction, responsible for the appearance of Zhong Kevin only a few minutes, the rest are automatically completed, which is obviously already a set of very skillful procedures, all aspects are manipulated behind the scenes.
When night falls, sitting at home anxiously waiting for Qiao Wen, did not wait for the news of the arrival of Chen Canaan, first waited for Lin Zihui called.
"Arwen. I'll tell you something." The person on the other end was rather cryptic.
"What is it?"
Lin Zihui's tone had a pressed excitement, "I inquired that Zhong Kevin is going to go out to sea tonight, and I suspect that he's going to make some kind of unseemly deal at sea."
Qiao Wen was slightly stunned, although he knew that Lin Zi Hui had been keeping an eye on Zhong Kevin, he didn't expect to be able to find out what he was going to deal with tonight, he couldn't help but ask strangely, "How did you know?"
Lin Zihui said: "The day before yesterday, I had dinner with my big brother, I beat around the bush and asked him about Zhong Kaiwen's recent situation, he casually mentioned that Zhong Kaiwen seems to be going out to sea tonight for night fishing. I heard it is not right, recently so cold, the night temperature can be as low as ten degrees, this kind of weather out of the sea night fishing, for a eat, drink and love to enjoy the rich, how are not normal. So I guess he went out to sea tonight, I'm afraid it's not night fishing, but there is some kind of unseemly deal to be carried out at sea."
Qiao Wen didn't listen carefully to his later analysis, because only hearing him say that Lin Zi Rui had told him, his brain buzzed in a general daze. Reacting, he hurriedly asked, "So? What did you do?"
Lin Zihui said, "Oh, I told Zhou Renjun to bring someone to take a look. If Zhong Kaiwen really has a problem, we must hurry to bring him out before he harms my big brother. By the way, Ah Nan doesn't know if he'll be on the boat tonight? But you don't have to worry, I've already told Zhou Renjun, he knows how to handle it."
Qiao Wen simply had a black eye, although in the original world, Lin Zi Hui and Zhong Kaiwen Chen Canaan were arch rivals, and in the end, these two villains were not allowed to end up in a good way, and it was all because of him. The current him was naturally motivated by righteous good intentions, however this good intention would be greatly problematic if it originated from Lin Zi Rui.
He was momentarily confused, and it took him a while to calm down, rubbing his brow with a bit of a headache and taking a deep breath, "Okay, I get it."
Lin Zi Hui on the other end was still gloating, "I hope I catch Zhong Kaiwen in the act this time, lest he harm my big brother."
Jovian hung up helplessly.
Tonight's deal, is in order to first follow that vine and then next touch melon, so did not tell the police, because also really do not know the police side in the end there are a few trustworthy, only to be afraid of in the lack of evidence, hit the grass, affect the follow-up investigation.
Qiao Wen never expected Lin Zi Hui to be nosy and intervene - of course, or it wasn't that he was nosy, he was just being used to deliberately intervene in this.
What is the purpose of the other party's police presence? Most likely, it's to make Chen Canaan disappear.
Qiao Wen raised his hand and looked at his wristwatch, it was already past five o'clock, he picked up the phone and called Zhou Renjun, but there was no answer in either the office or the apartment.
He thought about it and grabbed his car keys and headed out the door.
At ten o'clock in the evening, a yacht floated silently on the calm sea. On the deck sat two men who were sea fishing with fishing rods.
"Hooked up hooked up!" Zhong Kaiwen excitedly stood up from the matzah, pulled up the fishing rod, and threw it upward with great force, and a live sea fish slammed onto the deck with a thud.
Chen Canaan picked up the easy-open can in his hand, poured the rest of the beer in one gulp, casually threw the can into the sea water, and lazily said, "Uncle Zhong, when will the boat arrive? Don't be swindling us, right?"
It had been five or six hours since he had sailed at five in the afternoon and his patience was simply running out. It had been a rough couple of months having a home away from home, especially always followed by a perverted man with ill intentions towards him.
Though he loved men himself, it still revolted him to the core if a man other than Jovian loved him.
Zhong Kevin naturally didn't know that the other party was launching contempt for him for an unknown number of times in his heart, and said with a smile, "A business of tens of millions of dollars, who would dare to treat it as child's play? Don't worry, it will be here soon."
Chen Canaan laughed: "Do we really only need to go on board to inspect the goods? We don't even have to be in charge of unloading and shipping?" He tilted his head to look at the man beside him, "Uncle Zhong, why do I feel that this business seems a bit too easy?"
Zhong Kevin patted his shoulder and laughed, "Ah Nan, to make big money in the long run by one person's ability is not possible. We are just a link in the giant network, just do what we need to do, the rest will naturally be accomplished by someone else, and there's no need to ask for more."
Chen Canaan smiled contemptuously, "You don't know anything, so you're not afraid of being toyed with? If something really goes wrong, those who are hiding in the back are unharmed, and the ones who take the blame are us who step forward."
Zhong Kaiwen laughed out loud in disbelief, "If something really happened, it would have happened long ago, how can we wait until now? I think you still don't have enough guts, it's okay, take your time." He just finished speaking, suddenly raised his head and glanced at the sea under the night ahead, the corner of his mouth hooked, said, "Look, isn't this coming!"
Chen Canaan lifted his eyelids to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a blackened cargo ship in the distance, slowly sailing by.
Kevin Chung reeled in his fishing rod and instructed the helmsman to start the yacht.
A few minutes later, the two approaching boats signaled each other, and the yacht drove towards the freighter to man and stop alongside.
Zhong Kevin only brought four people with him, and apart from Chen Canaan, the other three were all beloved ones who had been with him for many years. However, his trust in Chen Canaan was clearly greater than the three beloved ones, and it was evident that he was swept away because of the other party's attractiveness - even though Chen Canaan was disrespectful to him from time to time, he still felt that this was an interesting aspect of the other party's character.
Zhong Kevin led the way, stepping onto the other ship in the darkness of the night.
It was a cargo ship loaded with fruits, with a strong fruity scent emanating from the cabin, it didn't look any different from an ordinary cargo ship, including a few crew members who only looked like ordinary sailors.
Obviously, it was a well-disguised cargo ship.
Chen Canaan hadn't grown much in his other skills over the years, but he had learned to observe carefully by following Qiao Wen.
"Where's Boss Kim's stuff? Let's inspect the goods." Zhong Kevin stepped forward and said towards the man at the head of the other party.
"In the hold." The man returned, making a gesture that was to several men follow him down to the cargo hold.
It wasn't something Kevin Chung did, so it was very much a breeze.
Baskets upon baskets of fruits crowded the cabin to overflowing. The man walked to the center, took down the two baskets of cinnamon, underneath is still the same cinnamon box, just open the box, reach out the top layer of cinnamon peeled open, inside is a packet of wrapped tightly I do not know what thing.
Zhong Kevin signaled towards the henchman beside him, the other nodded, took out a dagger and stepped forward, cut open the nylon bag, reached out and dipped his hand in a bit and licked it, and after a moment, nodded towards Zhong Kevin.
"Pick two more boxes at random and take a look."
The henchman understood, picked two more boxes at random, inspected them, and nodded still more affirmatively.
Zhong Kevin laughed, "Alright then, I'm sure I'm relieved with Boss Jin's goods. You guys keep delivering, I'll keep going back to catch my fish." He patted Chen Canaan's shoulder again, "Ah Nan, see? Following Uncle Zhong to make money is so simple!"
Chen Canaan pulled the corner of his mouth with a smile, "Forget about my share this time, right?"
Kevin Chung said cheerfully, "That's for sure."
A group of people stepped out of the crowded cabin.
At this time the night is deep, the sky a round moon, hidden in the clouds, the quiet sea, only the fishy salty sea breeze blowing through.
Zhong Kevin said goodbye to the other party and was about to return to the yacht when the sea, which was originally so quiet and dark that only the sound of the wind was heard, was suddenly broken by two lights that broke the darkness of the night.
A few people had an alarm bell ringing.
Zhong Kevin hurriedly wanted to bring people back to the yacht, however, just at that moment, those two lights accompanied by a rumbling sound, suddenly approaching, vaguely surprisingly two speedboats.
A loudspeaker sounded distantly in the empty sea: "Stop the boat in front, we are police officers, we suspect that there is contraband hidden in the boat, we need to board the boat for routine inspection, please cooperate!"
The man at the head of the cargo ship was alarmed, stepped forward and grabbed Zhong Kevin's collar, "Boss Jin walks the goods every time Master Five clears the area, how come there are police? It must be a mole on your side!"
Zhong Kevin said angrily, "Don't spit on me, it's not the first time I've done business with Mr. Jin, if I had a problem, Master 5 wouldn't have given me this route. If I had any problems, Master 5 wouldn't have given me this deal. Let go of me and let me go back to the yacht. What to do with the goods on the boat, you do it yourself, I'm just here for night fishing, don't get me involved."
The man was unimpressed, and when Zhong Kevin's two horsemen were about to come forward to make a move, the other party directly took out a gun and put it against his head, and instructed his men to turn around, "Turn around at once!"
The coxswain quickly started the boat to turn around with more horsepower.
Zhong Kevin was blackmailed by a horse, angry and angry, but did not dare to move, afraid that the gun on his head, accidentally went off. He cursed in annoyance, "You hurry to let go of me, believe it or not I will join you with Boss Jin, so that you can't eat and walk!"
The man said, "Fine, I'll let you go, but I'll have to leave someone behind so I can make sure it's not your side of the problem."
Zhong Kevin casually pulled over one of his men and impatiently said, "Fine, fine, fine leave it to you, but if you dare to touch him, your life is mine."
The man tugged at the corner of his mouth and shook his head, then looked lightly at Chen Canaan behind him, "I want this man!"
Chen Canaan's eyebrows jumped suddenly, his heart understood that this was not right tonight, while his brain was spinning rapidly in a rare moment, Zhong Kevin was already furious: "You're a little scumbag, you dare to bargain with me, do you know what kind of person he is?"
The man said, "It doesn't matter what he is, what matters is that I want him to stay. And you don't have time to hesitate."
Zhong Kevin looked at the yacht that was getting farther and farther away, and could only say with a clench of his teeth, "Nan, then you stay, they won't dare to do anything to you."
"No," Chen Canaan revealed a furious expression, "Uncle Zhong, that's not what you said when you asked me to make money with you. You asked me to stay on the boat, so if the police stop this boat later, how can I get off the hook?"
As he spoke, a gun had been pointed at his forehead.
Seeing this, Zhong Kevin snapped, "Just find any excuse, Anan I'm sure you have a way. I'm leaving." Although the sunny and robust little calf was attractive, for the sake of his own safety and innocence, he decided to be unrighteous and give up this little calf first. Besides, Chen Canaan hadn't seriously done any big business with himself anyway, so he could find a good lawyer to get him off the hook when the time came.
After saying that, he no longer cared about Chen Canaan, but jumped down into the sea water with two of his men and headed towards the yacht that was already about to drift away.
Meanwhile, the freighter had ramped up its power and rushed towards the depths of the night.
The boss-like man on the boat picked up the gun in his hand and gestured toward Chen Canaan, "Pretty Nan, go inside, it's weirdly cold outside."
Chen Canaan glanced at the speedboat that was getting closer and closer, "I see that it's quite comfortable outside, so I won't go in, anyway, I can't run away if I'm here, can I?"
The man nodded, "I'm a quick guy, so I won't be hard on the dying man"
Chen Canaan frowned and asked, "What do you want? I didn't call the police."
The man said, "I know."
Chen Canaan said, "Someone wants you to kill me?"
The man spread his hands in disbelief.
At the same time, Zhou Renjun on the speedboat, accelerate the horsepower, the boat speed to the highest. Seeing from the ship is trying to flee the cargo ship, getting closer and closer, but suddenly heard bang bang three gunshots.
Only a black figure, struck down by a bullet in the dim moonlight, fell from the deck into the water.
Zhou Renjun leapt to his feet and picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Listen up the ships in front of you, we are the police, we are going to board the ship soon, respectfully, you put down your weapons and don't resist, or we will shoot you on the spot."
No more shots rang out from the boat and no shots were fired at their speedboat.
Two minutes later, the cargo ship that had been traveling at full speed had apparently come to a stop. Zhou Renjun raised his gun and asked his colleague at the helm to try and bring the speedboat closer.
He shouted twice from his ship and no one responded, as if the ship had suddenly become an empty ghost ship.
Zhou Renjun is a reckless and bold master, to wait for the speedboat next to the cargo ship, his own vanguard climbed on board.
The boat was dark and the sound of the motor had long since ceased. He tried to run into the cockpit and then into the cabin, which had been empty at some point.
He ventriloquized, out of the cabin back to the deck, at the moment the sea is quiet only the sound of the wind, so he heard to the sound of the wind vaguely coming from the motor, frowned to follow the sound of the turn his head, and saw a speedboat gradually disappeared in the dreary night.
It turned out that the men had a boat to meet them and escaped in the other direction while they were close to boarding the ship.
He was about to return to the cargo hold to check again, his eyes suddenly glimpsed the scratches on the deck and a little black water stains, apparently here hair just had a fight, he bent down, dipped his finger in a little water stains have not completely dried, through the flashlight to see, it is really blood.
The few remaining cops from the speedboat had come up as well. He waved his hand, "Go check the contents of the cargo hold."
Loaded with fruit in the cargo hold, also exudes a burst of fruit flavor, Zhou Renjun and colleagues, quickly pulled out of the goods hidden in the lower row, just a box after a box check, found that in addition to the top layer of white powder, the following is all ordinary flour, these flours add up to almost two tons, however, the real white powder is only less than ten pounds.
With Kevin Chung's wealth, going through all the trouble just for these ten pounds was obviously unlikely.
Zhou Renjun suddenly remembered something and asked the brothers who came up later, "Have the people on the yacht side been controlled?"
"Already under control, two brothers took them back to the shore. However, Zhong Kevin balked at the fact that he was out for night fishing, and when asked why he was on this freighter, he replied that he saw the freighter passing by and came up to buy some fruit, and also played dumb and asked if there was anything wrong with this fruit-carrying ship."
Zhou Renjun cursed an expletive in a low voice, such a low-level excuse really came out of his mouth, but he didn't catch it in the act, so even the worst excuse can be established. He asked again, "Where is Chen Canaan?"
"Huh?"
"It's just Pretty Boy South."
"Pretty Boy Nan? There are only three people on the yacht in total, except for Kevin Chung, it's his two henchmen, there's no Pretty Boy Nan."
"What did you say?" Zhou Renjun was stunned, and then his eyes widened as if he suddenly realized something.
As a police officer from the police several years of sweeping the black police, his reaction speed is naturally unusual, just now the two gunshots, he originally only as black, did not care too much, but at this moment suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation, and immediately resumed loudly, "Just now someone from the boat was shot into the sea, immediately salvage."
