Chapter 125: People-Swallowing Island (17)

On the west coast of Laitou Island, a coast guard ship broke down and stopped alone in the nearby waters.

Seen from the shore, the incandescent lamps in the cockpit cast a cold light, which seemed a bit bleak.

There were two coast guards on board, but they were not armed.

Although this mission was assisted by special police with live ammunition, a coast guard ship disappeared not long ago, and there is no trace of it so far. The life and death of the people on board are uncertain. The two coast guards who came to carry out the task did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

When it was getting dark, the coast guard ate the vegetarian food on board and sat on the deck enjoying the sea breeze.

"Brother Zhuang, why did you say that the ship disappeared? The weather was so good the day they went to sea, and there were three consecutive sunny days, with no wind at all." The young coast guard asked.

The coast guard named Brother Zhuang smiled: "The storm is indeed terrible, but there are some things in the sea that are more terrible than the storm."

"what?"

Brother Zhuang looked at the horizon in the distance, "You will understand when you see it, but..."

He withdrew his gaze and glanced at the young coast guard, "I hope you never have to see him."

When it got dark, Brother Zhuang asked the young coast guard to go to bed first, and he came to be on the first shift.

The night at sea was very cold. Brother Zhuang put on some clothes and used binoculars to look at the west coast of Laitou Island from time to time.

The whole island looks very quiet. When the tide rises, the waves beat, and the fine sand is brought ashore and then swept away. Year after year, any trace can be smoothed by the sea water and fine sand, just like time.

clap clap-

Suddenly there was a gunshot from the direction of Laitou Island.

The young coast guard who had just lay down ran out of the cabin and asked uncertainly, "Is that a gunshot? Or... let's go and have a look?"

"No," Brother Zhuang said calmly, "Look at the mountains running dead horses. It's far away. When we arrive, the daylily will be cold. Besides, if something terrible happens, their first choice must be to go to the boat." Withdraw, we will go astray at that time, and we will not be there when they withdraw, it will be embarrassing."

"Then let's just watch?"

Brother Zhuang glanced at the direction of Laitou Island, "Why are you watching? Can you see it? Guard the boat, this is our task!"

Brother Zhuang took the night vision binoculars and looked in the direction of the coast, "Work harder tonight, take turns watching, I'm worried..."

More intensive gunshots rang out, and Brother Zhuang's eyebrows twitched into a big pimple.

The two never fell asleep again, and stood on the deck to observe the situation on the shore with binoculars in turn.

I don't know how many times the telescope was handed back and forth between the two of them. The two of them gradually became sleepy and had to light cigarettes to refresh themselves.

"Why don't you go to sleep for a while?" Brother Zhuang asked.

"No need, I can bear it... Wait, this is..." The young coast guard with a telescope in his hand shrugged, "There is someone! Brother Zhuang, look!"

He handed the binoculars to Brother Zhuang.

Brother Zhuang looked through the binoculars for a long time. "There are three people in total. They are not from us. They don't know any of them. What are these people thinking about? ... Something is wrong! It seems that they have no good intentions."

The three of them pushed out a leather raft from the forest—it was the one used by Minghui and the other four when they landed on the island, and it was the only raft on board.

"Not good! The leather raft has been found!"

Brother Zhuang paced a few steps on the deck anxiously.

"Call out! Try it out first!" Brother Zhuang made a decision.

It was the first time for the young coast guard to encounter such a thing, and he asked tremblingly, "Isn't it a pirate?"

"Don't just think about it, this is not Somalia!"

Brother Zhuang returned to the cockpit, turned on the loudspeaker on the ship, and shouted through the loudspeaker microphone: "The people on the west coast of Laitou Island, the three people on the west coast of Laitou Island! We are the Chinese Coast Guard, please stay away from us immediately. Raft, we will try to rescue after dawn, please rest in place tonight. Repeat, put down the raft and stay where you are!"

While pretending to shout, the young coast guard kept watching the other party with binoculars, and when the shouting stopped, he frowned and said: "When you shout, these people gathered together... It should be discussed for a while, and then, you said No wonder, they stopped being sneaky, and one by one threw off their arms and pushed the raft into the water! ... Oops, they are still waving at us, what should we do?"

Brother Zhuang repeated what he just said a few times.

"Useless brother Zhuang, they won't listen."

"It wasn't meant for them."

"what?"

"These people are here, and Minghui and the others should not be far away. Let them remind them, don't get caught by someone as soon as they emerge from the forest."

The young coast guard pointed to the raft that had been launched into the water, "Then what about these three people?"

"Find out your identity first."

The sea was still calm, and the raft slowly approached the coast guard boat. The physical characteristics of the three gradually emerged, with clothes and skin colors like fishermen.

When it was about ten meters away from the coast guard ship, the raft stopped on its own initiative.

"Help us! Help!" shouted the man on the raft.

"Who are you? How did you get to the island?" Brother Zhuang asked loudly.

"Storm! Our fishing boat is caught in a storm!"

"Which fishing boat?"

The person answering the question on the raft seemed to have a bad throat, coughed a few times and said, "Jing'an, Jing'an is caught in a storm, we can only go to the island."

The young coast guard said in a low voice: "There is indeed a fishing boat called Jing'an, which disappeared half a month ago, including the boat and its people."

The person on the raft added: "We are the fishermen on the Jing'an! You are the police, you can't do nothing!"

"Yes, yes, if you don't save us, we will starve to death on the island!"

starve?

Just two words are enough for Brother Zhuang to see through the other party's lies.

If there are sea monsters on the island, Brother Zhuang may still believe it, but the fishermen starved to death on the island, this lie is too bad.

Relying on the sea to eat the sea, you must know that the sea survival experience accumulated by fishermen for hundreds of thousands of years must not let them go hungry at sea.

Someone compiled a post on the Internet, detailing how to "not lose money" when eating a buffet. There are as many as 99 precautions to ensure that you can reach the highest state of eating buffet - leaning on the wall to enter and then leaning on the wall come out.Although the experience of the fishermen will not be sorted out one by one like this kind of boring people, it has already flowed into the flesh and blood, and a few methods are enough to eat when they arrive on a deserted island.

Soon, Brother Zhuang's suspicion was confirmed.

A light spot appeared on the shore, and the light spot flickered on and off, and the time interval between light and dark was different.

Brother Zhuang recognized it immediately. It was a light signal commonly used on ships.

The signal is very simple, only two words.

Danger!

After the light signal was sent three times, the lights went out completely.

In the woods by the coast, Yan Ruyu returned a strong spotlight flashlight to Team Zhang.

Team Zhang was a little surprised, "Do you still understand light signals?"

"Before I came here, I thought it might be useful, so I took a look at it." Yan Ruyu obviously didn't want to be treated as a monster, and changed the subject: "It's time for us to play."
