Physician’s Odyssey
Chapter 1038
"Is the source of the information reliable?"
Su Tao's gaze fell on Jiang Jing, and he looked at this handsome man carefully. Although he showed the symbol of the beacon, Su Tao could not fully trust him. He has a thousand faces. With Su Tao's suspicious character, he is very suspicious. It is difficult to accept a stranger in a short time.
Jiang Jing seemed to feel Su Tao's concerns. He did not directly answer Su Tao, and said solemnly: "Although we met for the first time, every member of Fiberhome accepts the faith of Vulcan, is loyal to the organization, and is loyal to the superior. If you communicate with me with concerns, you will not believe what I say."
Su Tao didn't expect Jiang Jing to be so keen, smiled awkwardly, and said: "I apologize to you, but this is also human nature. Trust is cultivated through bloody struggles, and the idea of beacon is never blindly followed. Blindfold, from a certain angle, you can also question me."
Jiang Jing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said lightly: "You are more interesting than imagined. No wonder Vulcan repeatedly urged me when I was performing this mission. This is not only my test of you, but you also test me."
"Test?" Su Tao looked at Jiang Jing with a smile.
Jiang Jing frowned and said, "Yes. Vulcan is the soul of the beacon. If you want to sit in this position, you must convince us."
Su Tao smiled helplessly: "I knew it was so troublesome, I won't get on this boat."
Jiang Jing said disdainfully: "You are lying. As a good man, who doesn't want to make contributions? Fiberhome can provide you with a platform to display your ambitions."
Su Tao sighed, and said, "I want to make meritorious deeds. There are many ways. I am a doctor of Chinese medicine with a bit of strength. I rely on this skill to survive well. The identity of the god of fire sounds very exciting, but under pressure. So big, why should I ask for trouble?"
"Are you questioning Fenghuo?" Jiang Jing frowned and stared at Su Tao, revealing anger.
Fenghuo is his belief in life, questioning Fenghuo is like questioning him.
"I respect Fenghuo very much." Su Tao paused and laughed, "I just don't like the feeling of being tested and evaluated. Of course, because Fire God is a person I respect, I will try my best to satisfy you. In addition, I'm just showing my attitude. If you think I want to climb up with the identity of Vulcan, it is a misunderstanding, so there is no need to be hostile to me, as if I were your enemy."
The reason why Su Tao said this was because Jiang Jing's attitude towards Su Tao was indeed not so friendly. It seemed calm and hostile.
Su Tao can also analyze the root cause. Jiang Jing doubts Su Tao's ability and whether he has the qualifications to serve as the new Vulcan, so he is deliberately testing Su Tao.
Jiang Jing realized that he was always at a disadvantage in the dialogue with Su Tao. He sighed lightly and said in a deep voice: "For every member of Fiberhome, we have experienced the tempering of blood and fire and grow up. Everyone's goal is the same. Become a Vulcan. Your path is different from ours. I don’t know how heavy and difficult the title of Vulcan is. Now that you have accepted this title, you need to prove yourself."
Su Tao smiled and said: "I was taken away by an outsider, so I feel aggrieved or even jealous? The old Vulcan's choice of me as his successor is a proof in itself. Thank you for telling me. From my own real thoughts, I believe that many people in Fiberhome, like you, see me as a competitor falling from the sky. However, I hope you all make it clear that you have already lost."
Jiang Jing sighed, stared at Su Tao, and changed the subject: "We have put our eyes in the pirates, and this group of people are going to start on the high seas tomorrow. Their target is the Heavenly Sage Bronze Man."
Su Tao's expression sank. When Jiang Jing said "Tian Sage Bronze Man", he knew that the wind had been leaked, "Tian Sage Bronze Man, only Gu Yin and I knew. The only possibility was that Gu Yin had leaked the news. ."
Jiang Jing nodded, and said, "When Gu Yin told Du Ziqian this secret, he was informed by a certain crew member. This crew member was bought by the pirate gang and passed the news to the pirate gang. That's why the pirate gang was right. This ship started. We also just got news. If nothing else, pirates have been arranged on this ship. When it reaches the high seas, the inside and outside should be combined, and the ship will soon be controlled."
Su Tao showed a solemn expression and frowned, "How many of us do we have?"
"There are five people in the eighth group wearing them, hiding them among customers with different identities. Counting the pirate's internal eyeliner, there are six people in total." Jiang Jing explained patiently.
"How many people are there in this pirate gang?" Su Tao knew that the other party was at least a medium-sized pirate gang. If it was a small pirate group of about ten people, there was no need for Fiberhome to put an eyeline in to monitor it.
Jiang Jing sighed and said: "The name of the pirate gang is called Ghost. It is a team of more than 500 people. They are equipped with advanced equipment, equipped with high-powered speedboats, ship-to-ship missiles, AK-47 submachine guns and other weapons and equipment. Logistics base and sufficient information sources. The modus operandi is to kill all crew members, drive the ship to a secret location, repaint it, change its name, and become a so-called ghost ship after registration, which is sold together with the cargo, or used to smuggle it. Drug trafficking. The ghost pirate group is generally active in the southern waters of the Philippines, but now it swims to the high seas of China and island countries to commit crimes, which means it is determined to win."
Su Tao frowned and analyzed: "The Heavenly Sage Bronze Man is of great value, but it is only attractive to people who understand Chinese traditional culture and are familiar with Chinese medicine. How do those pirates know the weight? I am afraid that the other party has no purpose. It's that simple."
Jiang Jing was puzzled: "You mean, they are hired?"
Su Tao nodded and said solemnly: "I suddenly remembered something. After Stein was shot dead in the island country, the Metropolitan Police Department interrogated his subordinates and wanted to know how they retreated and left the island country. As a result, some subordinates said , There are ships waiting for them on the high seas. I suspect that it is this ghost pirate group waiting for them. Seeing that they cannot receive Stein’s mercenary group, the ghost pirate group simply waits for us on the high seas."
Jiang Jing's eyes also brightened. Although Su Tao's brain was a little bit open, the possibility was extremely high. He reasoned: "In other words, the pirate gang is related to Qin Jingyu?"
Su Tao nodded and said solemnly: "Like this kind of large pirate group, they are major customers of arms dealers, and Qin Jingyu is an arms dealer, so it is very possible to even go online."
Jiang Jing has a deeper understanding of Su Tao. Su Tao is a person who is very good at analyzing and strategizing. Although he is not sure whether Su Tao's judgment is correct, this possibility is extremely high.
Jiang Jing was silent for a moment and said: "The wiser way now is to turn around immediately. According to their plan, once they get to the high seas, they will do it."
Su Tao shook his head and said: "It's too late. Although the Heavenly Sage Bronze Man is not on the ship for the time being, the other party will never return empty-handed. There is an insider among the crew. Once we deviate from the course, the other party will be alert. We are too far away from the harbor. If we can’t wait for the island nation’s Maritime Self-Defense Force to support us, I’m afraid we will be intercepted by the pirate group.”
Jiang Jing frowned and said, "Then you mean, knowing that there is a trap, you still go to death generously?"
Su Tao said with a cold expression in his eyes: "There is a trick called waiting for the rabbit. The other party does not know the plan is leaked. Then it will definitely be done after the Heavenly Saint Bronze Man gets on the ship. There are still several hours before this time. If we notify the China Navy in advance Let them support us on the high seas, not only to solve the problem, but also to wipe out the pirates."
Jiang Jing frowned and said thoughtfully: "I understand what you mean. I will arrange now to contact the Navy."
Su Tao nodded and said, "I'll go to Du Ziqian and discuss it with him."
Although it is already time to rest, the situation is urgent and needs to race against time. Su Tao still has to ventilate with the captain Du Ziqian in advance, and it is best to find out the rape.
Su Tao knocked on Du Ziqian's cabin door, Du Ziqian frowned and said, "It's so late, what's the matter?"
Su Tao heard other movements in the cabin and realized that Du Ziqian was also a romantic figure. He had been drifting on the sea for a long time and his life was boring, so it was not uncommon to like women.
Su Tao sighed and said, "Can you find a quiet place to talk?"
Du Ziqian saw that Su Tao's expression was solemn, and it was so late again, if it was not a particularly urgent matter, he would never make trouble.He said solemnly: "Wait for a few minutes."
After speaking, Du Ziqian walked into the cabin and said a few words in English. After a while, a black girl with an enchanting figure reluctantly walked out of the cabin. She only wore a pair of underwear and suspenders, but Su Tao did not. Appreciating with the slightest interest, secretly funny, I didn't expect Du Ziqian to have such a strong taste.
Du Ziqian coughed and concealed his embarrassment: "The entire ship is the safest in my cabin. What can you say directly?"
Su Tao didn't mean anything, and said truthfully: "The cruise ship has been spotted by the ghost pirate group. It is expected that the Heavenly Sage Bronze Man will take action tomorrow when he gets on the ship."
"Are you sure it is the ghost pirate group?" Du Ziqian's expression changed drastically. He has rich sailing experience and was looted by pirates. If you encounter ordinary pirates, you are not particularly nervous, it is nothing more than a robbery.
But the ghost pirate group is notorious, as long as it is targeted by them, the consequences will be disastrous.
Su Tao said very solemnly: "Our top priority is to find the insider, because the navigating route has been controlled by the other party. I am in the dark, and we are at an absolute disadvantage."
Du Ziqian groaned: "The crew on this ship are all elderly people who followed me. I trust their character and know their details. It is impossible to betray me."
Su Tao said in a deep voice: "People are making money and birds are dying. Anyone may be tempted to change by profit. This involves the life and death of the entire ship and must be found out."
