Glancing at Zhang Huzi, who was obviously restless, Goatee reached out and pinched the beard on his chin, thought for a while, and then slowly said:
"With the bill that was just passed yesterday, it is impossible for the police to start taking action so quickly. Besides, our scale is really nothing compared to those local gangs.
Even if they want to take action, they won't attack us. Why are you anxious? Besides, we who came out to hang out have long known that smoke and soil are harmful things. Now that we have chosen this path, there is no way back.
It's too late to regret now. I think you are not worried about our own safety, but you are worried about your precious son! "
Hearing this, Zhang Huzi could not help but reveal an embarrassed smile. He had been such a precious son in his life. He had been pampered by him since he was a child and developed a domineering temperament. He originally did not want his son to go on this pickup mission.
But this troublesome boy shamelessly insists on seeing the world. He also keeps saying that the goods this time are their entire wealth, and they don't trust Huang Guangli, an outsider, to be responsible. You must have a family member watching to feel at ease.
I had no choice but to be pestered by him, so I was forced to agree to his request and let him go to Porto Alegre to pick up the goods as Huang Guangli's deputy. But in just a few days, there was news from the Brazilian Legislative Assembly passed such a stringent anti-drug bill.
If his son was caught on the road, it would be a serious matter of losing his head. How could he not worry about it.
"Haha... Master, you also know that I am just such a precious son. If he really has any shortcomings, I can't explain it to his mother."
Seeing this, the old man with the goatee shook his head gently, closed his eyes and said:
"Well, a loving mother is a loser. That boy of yours is not a worry-free person. If you hadn't let him follow you this time, I wouldn't have agreed to let him go.
Now that they have successfully picked up the goods, didn't they receive a message from earlier saying that they had entered Casuena Sur? What else do you have to worry about!
A little delay on the road is not a big deal. "
Hearing his master's words, Zhang Huzhu could only sigh helplessly and found a stool nearby to sit down. However, his eyes could not help but look out the window, hoping to see himself under the dim light of the dock. The figure of the son.
After almost an hour, the cargo ship led by Huang Guangli finally slowly returned to the manor. After both parties confirmed the safety through several light signals, Huang Guangli took the cargo ship to the dock.
At this time, Zhang Huzi let out a long breath when he saw the cargo ship docking. As a boss, of course he couldn't rush down to check the situation. He could only stand outside the window and quietly watch the people unloading goods not far away.
But as he looked at it, he felt that something was wrong. He didn't even see his son in the crowd. This made him panic. He no longer cared about being reserved and had to go to the dock to check the situation in person.
"Master, the number of people who have come back seems wrong. Kui'er doesn't seem to be back. Could it be something happened? I want to go down and have a look."
Hearing this, the old man with the goatee who had always been very calm was also stunned. He immediately stood up from the stool, walked quickly to the window, picked up a telescope and looked at the dock.
After observing around, he found that there was no trace of his disciple, and he couldn't help but said with a serious look on his face:
"That's right, not only did you not see your Kuier, but the number of people who came back is also wrong. You should go down quickly to confirm the situation."
Seeing that his master agreed with him, Zhang Huzi hesitated, agreed, and rushed forward with agility unbecoming of a middle-aged man.
Lu Miao, who was monitoring the manor in the distance, looked through the telescope at the cargo ship slowly approaching the dock. The police officer on the side couldn't help but said:
"Sir, when are we going to do it?"
After hearing this, Lu Miao, who was looking through the telescope, did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at the cargo ship docking in the distance without saying a word. After a while, he slowly said:
"No, the number is wrong. When they were in Porto Alegre, there were twenty-four people. Excluding the four people who were exploring the road on land, they should have twenty people, but now there are only twelve here. people.
Even if there is still a speedboat to guard the perimeter, they should not be missing so many people. Is there any news from the person responsible for the investigation now? "
Upon hearing this, the police officer on the side quickly picked up the telescope and looked out the window. While observing the situation at the pier, he replied:
"Sir, the news has not been sent back yet, but since the cargo ship has returned, they should have news back soon."
"Tell them not to come back, and immediately go downstream to investigate and see where the cargo ship was delayed for so long.
Why was the cargo ship delayed for so long during this time period? Where were some of the people on board already? "
Upon hearing Lu Miao's order, the police officer quickly followed the order and left.
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, another policeman took his place and picked up his binoculars to observe the scene on the dock in the distance.
As time passed, the policeman also discovered something was wrong.
"Sir Lu, the quantity of the goods is also wrong. We quietly counted the number of boxes at the Porto Alegre terminal warehouse, as well as the quantity on their bill of lading. Now the quantity here is obviously wrong.
At least half of the goods didn't come back here. "
Hearing this, Lu Miao's face instantly turned ugly. She adjusted the direction of the telescope, stared at the quantity of goods for a while, and found that it was indeed what the police officer said.
The quantity of goods did not match, which made him very angry. There was such a big mistake in such an important matter. This matter is a case that Mr. Fang is personally concerned about. If it goes wrong in his hands, he can find a piece of tofu and kill him directly.
"These damn bastards, suspend the arrest operation here, send more manpower, and make sure to find out the whereabouts of the cargo ship during the time it disappeared.
You must also find the missing batch of goods for me and never let them flow into the market, do you understand? "
"Yes, sir!"
All the police officers also knew the seriousness of this matter, and they all stood at attention and took orders, making phone calls to mobilize manpower. After running to the map to look for unusual sections of road, the police officers immediately became busy in the room where the lights were deliberately dimmed.
On the opposite dock, Zhang Huzi had also learned the whereabouts of his son from Huang Guangli's mouth, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
But soon, his heart became excited again.
"You mean, you always feel like someone is watching your actions along the way?"
Although, now that the goods have been unloaded, Huang Guangli did not relax, but vigilantly scanned the surrounding darkness from time to time! He knew very well in his heart that the safer he felt, the more dangerous he might be.
"Yes, brother! I have been in the world for so many years, and it is precisely because of my caution and intuition that I am alive now. I believe that my intuition is not wrong.
Moreover, even the security post I arranged has disappeared, so this is definitely not my illusion. "
Hearing this, Zhang Huzi frowned. Huang Guangli was his confidant. Of course he believed in him, otherwise he would not have given him such an important job. After thinking for a while, Zhang Huzi slowly spoke:
"Who do you think is watching you?"
Huang Guangli hesitated a little this time. Although his intuition told him that someone was targeting them, he could not confirm who was targeting them.
After thinking for a while, he could only shake his head helplessly and said:
"I don't know. At first I thought it was the police, so before entering Porto Alegre, I went to the shore to investigate, but I didn't find anything unusual.
When picking up the goods at the dock, we were extremely careful and sent security personnel five hundred meters away, but we did not find anything unusual.
Our process of picking up the goods was also very smooth.
At first I thought it was my imagination, but after entering Casuena do Sul, the security post I set up disappeared, which forced me to make such a response. "
After hearing what Huang Guangli said, Zhang Huzi did not blame him, but patted the other person on the shoulder with satisfaction and said:
"You did a good job and your response was very reasonable. But I think the possibility of this matter being caused by the police is relatively small. Maybe other gangs are trying to find out about us.
But if they didn't take action this time, they were probably waiting for the next opportunity. "
Hearing this, Huang Guangli felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. After all, in his opinion, no matter which party wanted to attack them, the purpose must be for this batch of goods.
But now the goods have returned to the manor. If those people want to take action, the best time to do it is when they are unloading the goods on the dock. But so far, there is nothing abnormal, which makes him a little confused for a while. Get clear on the situation.
What he didn't know was that just when he was wondering why the people staring at him didn't take action yet, the police who were monitoring them from a distance were also raising such questions.
"Sir, these guys have already delivered the goods to the manor, why don't we do something?"
When Lu Miao heard his subordinate's question, he was not angry, but still looked at the people on the dock in the distance with his telescope expressionlessly. He said firmly:
“Our purpose is not only to get promoted and make a fortune, but to completely eradicate this cancer among us Chinese and give Brazil’s anti-drug cause a good start.
If we rush out now, we can catch this group of drug dealers in one fell swoop, but the ones we missed will definitely run away. The part of the tobacco that disappeared will definitely flow into the market again.
Then our operation was unsuccessful, and we had no way to explain to Mr. Fang. "
"But after these guys receive this batch of tobacco, they will start selling it tomorrow, and a lot of it will flow into the market by then."
“So, we are pressed for time and must find the missing part before they move or sell the tobacco tonight.
They must not be given the opportunity to sell this batch of tobacco. "
When the police officers heard this, their faces were serious. They never expected that this group of drug dealers would actually play tricks under their noses and transfer part of a ship of drugs that had been under their control. There were major flaws in their entire operation.
In this way, everyone can only wait for the results of the police investigation into the whereabouts of the other part of the tobacco, while keeping a close eye on this batch of tobacco that has been stored in the warehouse, so that there will be no more surprises.
Time passed like this little by little while everyone was busy. Zhang Huzi, Huang Guangli and other drug dealers also quickly transported the cigarettes from the dock into the warehouse of the manor.
Soon the pier slowly returned to calm.
Just as Lu Miao and others, who had been quietly observing the movement in the manor, were getting more and more annoyed by the waiting, the phone in the room suddenly rang. Everyone turned their eyes to the direction of the phone and answered it. As soon as the police officer on the phone picked up the phone and said a few words, he couldn't help but shout out in surprise.
"Really? Well done, I'll report to the commander immediately."
After saying that, without hanging up the phone, he turned to Lu Miao and shouted:
"Sir, where did our people find the other people and goods?"
Lu Miao was overjoyed when she heard this. She quickly put down the telescope and came to the phone. She grabbed the phone and said:
"Tell me, what's going on? Where are they?"
The voice on the phone also revealed a hint of excitement.
"Sir, when our people were searching downstream along the river, they found a suspicious fishing boat. They were monitoring the movement of the cargo ship from a distance until all the cargo on the cargo ship was unloaded and everyone entered the manor. Then the fishing boat was started and headed downstream.
After we identified the three people on the fishing boat as one of several people heading to Porto Alegre to transport goods, we followed them quietly.
Later, we saw them rendezvousing with another fishing boat on a tributary. After our identification, we found that all the missing people were here. "
Hearing this, Lu Miao was overjoyed. After taking a deep breath, she slowly said:
"Do you have enough manpower now? Are you sure you can catch them all?"
"Sir, don't worry. We have marine police brothers coming up from behind to support us. Together with the militia brothers from Hongyitang, we have nearly fifty people. We can definitely kill all eight of them in one go."
After receiving a positive answer, Lu Miao no longer hesitated at all. He directly raised his left hand, looked at the watch on his hand and said:
"Now we are correcting the time. The time is 11:08 pm. We have half an hour to prepare. We will start at 11:40. Is that clear?"
"Yes, sir, it's 11:08 now. We'll start on time at 11:40."
"Very well, let us work together to eradicate this cancer completely!"
After saying that, Lu Miao hung up the phone and said to everyone in the room:
"Brothers, the missing goods and drug dealers have been found. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, we will kill all these drug dealers tonight. Do you have confidence!"
There was a short but powerful response in the room instantly.
"have."
"Very good, our target is this manor. Everyone has seen the photos of the drug dealers in the manor. None of these people can run away. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Very good, now according to the formation we have assigned a long time ago, our police and militia teams will be mixed and divided into four lines to encircle and suppress the manor.
Please remember that these drug dealers are extremely vicious. If you encounter resistance, I authorize you to shoot directly and capture as many people alive as possible while ensuring your own safety. Understand? "
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, the people in the room began to set off to their respective designated areas in an orderly manner. The house that was bustling just now suddenly became quiet.
