Chapter 466: The Pursuers (I)
The hunting dog tracked by the clues moved much faster than Wu Liang expected.
Only twenty days after the first attempted kidnapping, a group of uninvited guests chased them to Whale Island.
According to the information provided by the informant for the first time, (Wu Liang's so-called informant is a perennial fish seller in the port, the stall is just enough to have a panoramic view of all the berths in the port, taking the opportunity to go out with Mitt several times before and after to make a big purchase, Wu Liang has already become familiar with the aunt, and only buys fish in this fish stall, and does not bargain for a small price, so that the aunt has become a competent sentinel, as soon as there is a vicious appearance or a foreigner who takes a photo to inquire around the island, he immediately calls himself. Yesterday evening, an ordinary-looking distant-water fishing boat docked at the wharf, and strangely enough, instead of unloading its catch or receiving supplies like other fishing boats, it paid a large docking fee and carried several large wooden boxes to shore, and a group of people camped directly in the open space of the port.
Six men in the prime of life, dressed as sailors but with 'extremely vicious eyes, and not looking like good men at first sight' (Auntie's exact words), ran off to the town's tavern almost immediately after disembarking and made a big fuss, and several islanders who were usually indifferent to talking or joking were said to have been severely repaired.
Whale Island was chosen as a transit port but did not receive any supplies.
Don't care about expenses.、Go to the tavern as soon as you land and start a fight.。
The sailor is dressed with a fierce look in his eyes, giving the impression that he is not a good person.
The above three clues can be easily analyzed together: there is a ninety percent chance that the fishing boat on Xinshang Island is a chaser sent by the forces behind the kidnapping case, and the fish can't wait to bite the hook.
The reason for this judgment is that:
First, it is not the monsoon season in recent times, it is the best season for large fishing boats to go out to sea to catch economic fish, and it is very normal for real distant-water fishing boats to sell cheap fish at each supply port to empty cold storage and use the money obtained to replenish them.
Second, after the fishing boat landed, the sailors went to the tavern for recreation and venting as soon as possible, and it was even more common for the sailors to fight after getting drunk, and what really made Wu Liang suspicious was that the ---- of the objects he was beaten were all well-known big mouths and self-cooked people on the island, both of which were excellent targets for obtaining information, and used a little means (Wu Liang preferred to use the method of inviting them to a drink, rather than using his fists!). (Of course, how to distinguish the truth of the information and how much water there is after getting the information depends on personal experience and experience!) If Wu Liang was asked to go to a strange place to inquire about the news, he himself would most likely find these two kinds of people in the bar.
Third, the sailor's dress, according to the information provided by the aunt, although the six men who went to the tavern to find trouble were not much different from other sailors, their clothes were obviously much neater and looked like new, and two of them also wore particularly conspicuous large gold rings on their hands.
The combination of these situations and the first two is inevitably more suspicious, you must know that sailors who fish at sea always have to come into contact with all kinds of dirty things in their work, all kinds of oil stains on the ship and machine, the soup splashed with the fluctuations of the waves when eating, the blood stains on the body when killing fish and bloodletting, and the limited amount of fresh water carried on the ship cannot make sailors wash their clothes as often as on land, so it is normal for them to have ocean-going sailors who are covered with all kinds of stains and like a vagabond.
As for the jewelry such as rings on the sailors, it is even more rare to get things, and all day long and fishing nets, cables and other things to deal with sailors do not like to bring any jewelry, whether it is lost or scratched with something is a troublesome thing, some times in an emergency, this small scratch is more likely to make the sailor injured, and even have the possibility of death. (For example, accidents such as being caught in a fishing net because of a ring scratching, or a necklace being twisted into a cable are also endless in reality!) )
Therefore, except for a few married people who will wear wedding rings with simple shapes that are not easy to scratch, the rest of the sailors rarely wear jewelry when they go to sea, and no matter how commemorative things are, they are usually kept at home or in their carry-on luggage, and sailors who dress up like hip-hop singers are basically non-existent.
With the above points, it is enough to prove his speculation, Wu Liang slowly opened the prepared trap after contacting Menqi urgently, just waiting for the puppies to jump in by themselves according to the specially left taste, hoping that this time God willing, Wu Liang will have the opportunity to catch a few valuable live mouths and come back to torture the information, if he can know the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes, it would be great.
-----------------------
If it weren't for Wu Liang's special request, hoping that she could stay in the association and use her connections to help release the task in the center, Menqi would have rushed to Whale Island with her bag and personally helped Little Lori Alice solve the mastermind behind the scenes, but the first few thugs were solved too cleanly by Wu Liang, and there was no direction of investigation for a while, and he didn't know who to find to retaliate at all.
Now, after getting the news that the mastermind behind the scenes is unwilling to fail and is planning to launch another strong attack, Menqi immediately released a special investigation mission for related incidents in his own name in the Hunter Association, and entrusted the task to a senior crime hunter he knows, and even the deposit required for the release of the mission was made up with the money obtained in exchange for the mortgage hunter license, which shows that the fact that Xiao Lori was almost abducted made Menqi also very annoyed.
Don't look at the opportunity to get acquainted with each other purely because of the task commission, and no one wants to admit the relationship between each other, but Wu Liang, Sakura, Poison Island, Alice The four of them can be regarded as Menqi's founding disciples in fact, and in terms of cooking, Wu Liang can be regarded as half of Menqi's teacher, not to mention that the relationship between them has been very harmonious since they got along for half a year, Menqi and Sakura and Poison Island have become best friends who talk about everything, and little Lori is also treated as a sister, This kind of relationship that can make people dizzy forms a special bond, and it connects several people together.
Nowadays, there is a risk of being harmed by other people's wild boars, and no one will feel comfortable, and it is natural for the fire to be big.
