The rescue operation continued until the sun went down. Seventeen people were recovered alive, two bodies were found, and about ten people were missing.
After finishing these tasks, they handed over the fishing boat to the uniformed personnel, and Zhang Jing and Mike returned to the lakeside cabin. By this time, Dillon, Jamie, Feilai, and Irina had arrived driving two pickup trucks.
Because they were coming from the farm, the four of them brought a slaughtered beef cow. Knowing that Zhang Jing loved tripe, Ti Long also brought the tripe.
The fresh beef beef that was just killed in the morning does not require much seasoning. After frying in water, add some salt and cook it in an iron pot before eating. ..
Zhang Jing soaked in the water for an hour and rescued people for nearly three hours. He was so hungry that his heart was pressed against his back, so he picked up a piece of tendon and feasted on it. It was delicious and hot.
Not only Zhang Jing was hungry, but everyone was also hungry. It wasn't until she was full that Irina asked out of curiosity, "oss, what are we looking for this time?"
"Just treat it as a vacation," Zhang Jing wiped the grease stains from his mouth with his sleeve, "It's mainly just for fun."
This was not her first time on a mission. Irina understood immediately that playing was a cover. She only had to eat, drink and play when she needed to.
It's a bit troublesome to sleep at night, because the total area of the wooden house is only 60 square meters, with only one bedroom and a small living room.
Because the living room is also the kitchen, there are a lot of clutter, and there is no way for anyone to sleep on it. So we simply move the bed out, and the six of us make beds on the floor in the bedroom.
For safety reasons, Mike, Dillon, Jamie, and Felay each kept watch for two hours.
Zhang Jing didn't need to worry about anything. He slept comfortably in his sleeping bag until dawn. When he woke up, Feilai had already cooked breakfast, which was beef stew. Because it had been stewed for a long time, it was especially soft and fragrant. He took a sip of the soup and almost died. .
As comfortable as he is now, he will be miserable later. After that, Zhang Jing dived for four hours every day for twenty consecutive days.
Lake Patria is 50 kilometers long from north to south, 15 to 21 kilometers wide from east to west, with a maximum depth of 90 meters and an average depth of 60 meters. Zhang Jingke can dive to a depth of 40 meters, plus a 10-meter metal visual distance, so there are many places to find.
Finally, due to pulmonary edema, Zhang Jing had to stop working and was admitted to a private hospital in San Diego, 150 kilometers away.
San Diego is famous for its naval base and is also a city with developed medical research and pharmaceuticals. International biopharmaceutical groups including Pfizer, Novartis, and Amgen have set up headquarters or branches here.
Therefore, although Zhang Jing was seriously ill, he could still receive good treatment here.
Similar to the scene in the American TV series Night Shift Doctor, the private hospital facilities, equipment, and doctors are all excellent. Zhang Jing lives in a ward similar to that of a hotel. Not only does he not feel uncomfortable, but he is very comfortable.
Compared with being at the bottom of the lake, Taiba is suitable.
"Dong, dong," there was a soft knock on the door, and Irina's voice came from outside the door, "oss, Miss Jennifer is here."
At six o'clock in the morning, Zhang Jing was still in bed, secretly annoyed that Jennifer came too early and did not consider that the patient needed more sleep.
Getting up from the bed, Zhang Jing saw Jennifer in the ward.
"I heard that you were awarded the title of honorary citizen by the town of Patria?"
Zhang Jing also didn't expect that on the third day after participating in the rescue, the lakeside town gave him a medal, which even made the local news.
Zhang Jing waved his hand carelessly, "I don't save people for medals. I am naturally warm-hearted."
"Ha!" Jennifer, who has many freckles, looked disgusted. If she didn't know better, she would definitely be deceived by Zhang Jingchunliang's appearance and language, "Have you found the plane that crashed into the lake?"
"No," Zhang Jing complained, "Lake Patria is too big, there is little hope, and now I have pulmonary edema, I plan to give up."
In fact, Zhang Jing had no intention of giving up and had already asked Mike to buy expensive underwater scanning equipment.
Because of the special nature of my job, I am used to being more vigilant, so I tell lies.
"Don't you usually like to think?" Jennifer asked looking into Zhang Jing's eyes.
Zhang Jing didn’t understand what Jennifer was referring to.
"The sunken yacht was not sunk, but actively sank. Why?"
Zhang Jing is not stupid, of course he has thought about it, "My employee said that contraband was transported on it, and he took the initiative to sink it to destroy the evidence."
"It's really to destroy the evidence," Jennifer asked back, "Have you ever thought about taking the things inside?"
"No," Zhang Jing said firmly, "I have a bottom line."
"No," Jennifer shook her head and reminded, "This is San Diego, where the headquarters of global pharmaceutical giants are concentrated. There is nothing in that ship that you are thinking of, but raw materials for medicines that can cure diseases and save lives."
"Since they are pharmaceutical materials, why are they smuggled? Isn't it good to import them openly?" Zhang Jing asked the woman.
Jennifer reminded Zhang Jing, "Those pharmaceutical giants sell life-saving medicines worth 10,000, 100,000, or one million yuan. Pharmaceutical materials are smuggled in cheaply and then illegally made into drugs. The profits are extremely huge."
"It's so troublesome," Zhang Jing said, despite his limited knowledge, and he really couldn't figure it out. "Why not make the raw materials into medicines abroad? Wouldn't the finished medicines be easier to transport?"
"Not everyone can synthesize private drugs," Jennifer chatted from a comfortable sitting position. "Many private drug producers are themselves researchers at large pharmaceutical companies."
The question is, what does this have to do with Jenny? What do you want to do?
"It is rumored that behind every treasure hunter there is a very capable smuggling team," Jennifer suggested. "I am making private drugs in Mexico, and you can help me smuggle them into Citizen."
What a mess. Is Jennifer short of money?
The answer is of course no. The games made by Mosquito Repellent Coil are selling well all over the world. Her father is a super rich man.
Based on this analysis, Jennifer, who has some baby fat, many freckles on her face, looks cute, and looks like a high school student, is she also a member of the same group - loves money excessively?
Without thinking, Zhang Jing clearly refused, "I only make legal money."
"Do you want to break your promise?" Jennifer asked, looking directly into Zhang Jing's eyes.
A few months ago, Zhang Jing lost a horse race and Jennifer generously agreed to return the money, which moved him very much.
It was also the last horse race. Jennifer hinted to Zhang Jing that she would not delve into the case of Nayel's disappearance, and also offered two benefits, one was to crash the plane into the lake, and the other was to save money for later use.
To reciprocate the favor, Zhang Jing implicitly agreed to take her as the leader and work for his daughter in embarrassment.
Thinking of Jennifer's energy, Zhang Jing shook his head in denial and explained euphemistically: "I just don't want to do anything illegal."
"It only needs to be transported once a year," Jennifer said. "The quantity will not be large, no more than 50 kilograms of life-saving drugs at a time. Be careful, the risk is not as big as you think."
People can't help themselves in the world, so Zhang Jing lowered his head and agreed.
After receiving a positive answer, Jennifer showed a sunny smile on her face, took out a folded piece of paper from her handbag, stood up and left the sofa, and handed the paper to Zhang Jing, "I have saved money in the past two years, and I will take you to fly with me when the time comes. .”
Zhang Jing sniffed, feeling like he was being taken care of.
