Chapter 2450 The Life-Saving Grace Has Been Repaid
The footsteps were very mixed, and seemed to be everywhere. A large number of people should have boarded the ship for inspection.
Although they knew that people outside would not be able to hear them as long as they did not shout, they still held their breath.
The pistols were already in everyone's hands. Once the most worried consequences occurred, everyone would never sit and wait for death.
The movement around them lasted for more than 40 minutes before slowly calming down.
The footsteps gradually disappeared, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, there was no movement around.
Chen Xinan put his fingers on the collar intercom and tapped twice.
There was no response from the headset.
Chen Xinan gestured to everyone to wait in place.
Five minutes later, another round of footsteps came!
This time, the footsteps were much slower than before.
Finally, they arrived at the cabin where Chen Xinan and his group were. There was a beeping sound of a machine outside, and then someone told the person next to him to open the door.
The person next to him hurriedly explained that this was the spare fish hold, which smelled very bad and was not usually opened.
Judging from the voice, it was Katsu Uemura.
But the other party didn't listen to this, scolded him loudly, and forced him to open the iron door!
Chen Xin'an made a defensive gesture for everyone.
Once the door was opened, the battle would begin.
It was necessary to take the enemy by surprise.
Chen Xin'an had to rush out as quickly as possible and subdue the other party's top commander.
Only in this way could everyone have a chance to leave.
Everyone had heard the sound of the key being inserted into the lock, and they were all ready to give it a try.
At this moment, someone came from a distance and shouted a few words loudly.
Those who were originally standing at the door moved and gradually left.
Everyone looked at each other.
Chen Xin'an raised his arm and shook his head.
There was someone outside the door.
After a while, someone knocked on the baffle three times outside.
Then the baffle was opened, a hand reached in, put down something, and then retracted it.
Footsteps sounded, the people outside left, and the surroundings became quiet.
Chen Xinan made a gesture to everyone to stay where they were, and he approached the door alone.
Crouching down, he picked up the thing that the hand that had just reached in put down, and said to everyone: "They're gone, it's okay!"
Everyone let out a long breath and gathered around.
Long Sheng asked curiously: "Just now I thought they would really open the iron door, and I was sweating from holding the gun! I didn't expect them to leave again, it's really God's blessing!"
Xu Qing asked Chen Xinan curiously: "Xinan, what are you holding?"
Chen Xinan twisted his fingers and revealed a bullet the size of a peanut.
Everyone frowned, and Xia Hongfeng looked at the bullet and said: "What do you mean? Who put this thing here? What do you want to express?"
Chen Xinan smiled slightly and said to everyone: "Don't be nervous, it's an old friend!"
The chess piece left in the green suit of the Eagle Flag Country played a role at the most critical moment.
Chen Xinan took this bullet out from Captain Ross's wound.
It seems that Ross is still leading the sea interception this time.
He should have guessed that Chen Xinan was hiding in this fish hold.
So he stopped the green suits from opening the door and let Chen Xinan and everyone else go.
Leaving this bullet behind is also telling Chen Xinan that the life-saving grace has been repaid and both parties owe each other nothing!
After a long time, there was no sound outside, but everyone knew that the cargo ship had accelerated and the crisis was indeed resolved.
An hour later, Kamimura Katsu came back.
After opening the iron gate, Shangcun Sheng said to everyone in shock: "I was really scared just now!
After the coast guard searched, the green suit searched again and brought a sonar detection system!
After discovering this place, they insisted that I open the door.
If it weren't for the green suit officer who came later and thought he was wrapped in bandages and had his arm hanging to stop him, you would have been exposed!
Mr. Chen, I have been trying my best to conceal it from everyone from beginning to end, don't doubt me!"
Chen Xinan smiled slightly, nodded and said: "I know! Thank you Mr. Shangcun!"
Sheng Shangcun pointed behind his ear and said with a bitter face: "The main thing is this thing, I have to trouble Mr. Chen to help me take it down!"
Chen Xinan raised his hand and gave him a needle directly.
Shangcun Sheng's eyes almost popped out, and he said to Chen Xin'an: "Just pull it out like this? Is it that simple? Didn't you say that it can't be pulled out casually?"
Chen Xin'an said calmly: "Yes, others can't pull it out casually, but I can!"
Shangcun Sheng didn't say anything. He suspected that he was tricked by Chen Xin'an, but he had no evidence.
After a while, he pointed to his head and said to Chen Xin'an: "Mr. Chen, the needle tip on my head..."
Chen Xin'an said to him: "Sit down!"
Shangcun Sheng was stunned for a moment, then his face was overjoyed, and he sat cross-legged in front of Chen Xin'an obediently.
Chen Xin'an stood beside him, pressing his head with both hands.
Perhaps because of the unbearable pain, Shangcun Sheng wanted to struggle, and Chen Xin'an shouted: "If you don't want to die, just bear it!"
Shangcun Sheng was so scared that he quickly got ready and didn't move.
After a while, Chen Xinan pulled out the needle and said to Shangcun Sheng: "It's OK, Mr. Shangcun, you are fine now!"
Sheng Shangcun also felt the relaxation of his body, with a look of joy on his face, and nodded and said: "Great!"
Chen Xinan looked at him with a smile and asked: "Mr. Shangcun, the things in your body have been taken out now.
We passed the inspection of the Coast Guard and the green suit safely.
You won't cross the river and burn the bridge, and attack us, right?"
Sheng Shangcun's face froze, and he laughed dryly and said: "Mr. Chen is really a joke. I, Shangcun Sheng, am not an ungrateful person. Haven't we become friends?"
Chen Xinan laughed and said nothing.
Shangcun Sheng patted Chen Xinan on the shoulder and said: "The crisis has been resolved, you can sleep peacefully!
Tomorrow morning, we will reach the high seas.
By then, no one can trap us in the entire ocean, we can go wherever we want!"
Chen Xinan breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and opened his hands, saved Shangcun Sheng, patted him on the back and said:
"Thank you, my friend! Don't worry, I will give you more rewards when we arrive at Daying safely and smoothly!"
Shangcun Sheng raised the corner of his mouth, with a hint of sneer, and said to Chen Xinan with a smile: "Mr. Chen is so polite! But you misunderstood me too!
We did that before just because we were not familiar with each other.
Now we have become friends, Mr. Chen's business is my business, and helping each other is what we should do, I am not doing it for rewards!"
Longsheng on the side looked at him and said: "Since If so, can we get out of here?"
Kamimura Katsu said with an embarrassed look: "It's not that I don't want to, but we can't do it now!
We haven't reached the high seas yet, and no one knows how many waves of searches there will be from the coast guard and green suits.
I still have to inconvenience you all to stay here tonight, and you have to lock the door.
Everyone just bear with it for one night, and I will arrange rooms for everyone again when it's safe on the high seas!"
Long Sheng wanted to say something, but Chen Xin'an nodded and said: "Mr. Kamimura's concerns are very necessary.
Be careful now, and you are also responsible for your safety.
In this case, then stick to it for one night.
Everyone go to bed early, and we will reach the high seas early tomorrow morning, and you will be comfortable by then!"
Kamimura Katsu said with a smile: "Then I won't delay your rest, good night, everyone, if you need anything, just tell me through the intercom system!"
