Chapter 3878 Passenger Ship

Fan Keqin continued, "In addition, there is another point. Will the three brothers of the Wang family give up? Although there is a deposit, it will be troublesome to buy a few more ships. Who can guarantee that they will endure it? So why not just return the ship? The three brothers of the Wang family will naturally not have any trouble and can slow us down."

Zhen Bao carefully considered the meaning of Fan Keqin's words and felt that it made sense. If it were him, he would do the same. So he nodded and said, "Now that we have found a clue, Director Fan, should we go all out to target that rich young man and his follower?"

"To be precise, we should focus on the rich young man and his entourage." Fan Keqin said, "Others still need to continue to visit. We already have a rough estimate of the number of people who moved the gold ship at that time. There were so many people, about fifty or so. They successfully robbed the gold, but how did they evacuate? It is impossible for them to float on the water all the time. There are only three possibilities for them. One is centralized transportation, another is breaking up the whole into small pieces, and the other is transporting separately in several parts. But after all, there are so many of them, and there may be some clues coming and going. We can't give up on this point either. The brothers who visit may find out something."

Zhen Bao nodded and said, "I understand. We will focus on that rich young man and his followers. The rest of us will still have to investigate around."

The boat returned to the destination. Fan Keqin, Hua Zhang and others got off the boat, walked through the forest, got on the car, and returned to the base. In fact, this investigation was already in the evening. Fortunately, after they came back, Zhen Bao urged his men to start cooking. The conditions here are average, and there is nothing special to eat. But before going out to investigate, Zhen Bao specially took two people to go to the nearby small villages and farms to find chickens, ducks and geese. Don't say it, they really found a goose, a duck, and two chickens.

So they killed the chicken, boiled water to remove the feathers, and made a bowl of it for Fan Keqin and the others. After they ate together, Zhen Bao took the empty bowl, stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb Director Fan's rest. I'll go back first. If you have any news, I'll come right over."

"Okay." Fan Keqin said, and sent him out the door, then turned back. Hua Zhang pointed to a lamp and a phone on the broken table and said, "They really pulled the line during the day."

"Yes." Fan Keqin said: "But the electricity is generated by a generator pulled from the follow-up ship, and the phone can only temporarily connect to the other two to form an internal network." As he said, he had come to the front and checked the table lamp and other things, and then checked the house with Hua Zhang. Nothing abnormal was found. Then he said: "That's good, we got a generator, which is just right for our radio station. No need to save electricity too much."

"Yes." Hua Zhang said, "Then I will establish contact with my superiors first, and report the rich young man and his entourage, as well as the situation of continuing to visit the surrounding areas."

"Okay." Fan Keqin said, "I'll keep watch for you at the door. You don't have to go into the inner room. Just do it on the small table."

Hearing this, Hua Zhang took his briefcase and went to the small table to quickly assemble the radio. Fan Keqin was at the door, latching it shut, standing in the shadows on the side, looking out through the crack in the door...

At the same time, on a passenger ship near the coast of Hong Kong Island, in the small restaurant of the passenger ship, two guests each ordered a meal and sat at the table opposite each other. It was past mealtime and they were about to dock in a while, so there were not many people in the restaurant. It was just convenient for them to talk. One of them was wearing a white suit and white leather shoes, looking very showy. The other was wearing a gray and black suit. The two had basically finished their meal and were lighting cigarettes for each other. The man in the gray and black suit glanced at the white suit and thought that the other person was wearing it very showy, so he couldn't help but smile. But on second thought, since they were about to go to Hong Kong Island, it was not unusual to wear such a suit, so he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Tianyi, have you decided which direction to check from?"

Then the man in the gray suit leaned back to make himself more comfortable, and said, "Brother Bu Lu Tian Yi, during the two days on the ship, I also thought about where to start the investigation. There were more than a dozen people missing, and they all disappeared at once? And they disappeared without a sound, which is a bit unbelievable. If something really happened, it is impossible to kill them without any movement. More than a dozen people, it is very likely that they would open fire, or even explode. Otherwise, it is impossible to kill them silently."

The man in a white suit named Tianyi took a puff of his cigarette and said, "So Brother Yuansi is considering building connections with the Hong Kong Island police?"

"Yes." The man named Yuan Si nodded and said, "Since it is impossible to kill him silently, the Hong Kong police may have some police records. If we analyze these records, we may be able to find some clues."

Tianyi didn't speak immediately. He thought for a while before nodding and saying, "Yes. Brother Yuansi's method is a good idea."

"Where is Brother Tianyi?" The one called Yuansi asked, "What have you considered these past two days as to where to start?"

The person named Tianyi said, "The dock."

"The dock?" Yuan Si frowned and asked, "You mean to check from the dock? But how can we check from the dock?"

Tianyi said, "Now they are all missing. The information we have is that they, like us, boarded a passenger ship to Hong Kong Island. Then we lost contact. They boarded the passenger ship for sure, which means that it is almost impossible for them to jump into the sea halfway, and there is no need to do so. As a member of the Coordination Department, jumping into the sea halfway, is it crazy? So they must have disappeared after arriving in Hong Kong Island. I have also considered the possibility of an accident on the ship, but there are more than a dozen people, and the probability of an accident on the ship is even smaller. So it can only be Hong Kong Island."

At this point, Tianyi took another puff of cigarette, also to organize his thoughts, and then continued: "But when they arrived at Hong Kong Island, where did they go, where did they live, and whether something happened right after they arrived at Hong Kong Island, it's hard to say. But now the only thing that can be said for sure is that the passenger ship will definitely stop at Hong Kong Island. It will be docked at the pier, so, at the beginning, I thought that I could only investigate from this aspect..."
