Chapter 123: The Great Indian Adventure (End)

What would it be like to drive a 30,000-ton freighter with no navigation radar, no answering equipment, all external communication can only be done by light signals and flags, and the response is very, very dull in the dark, on a relatively busy route?

It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was thrilling, but as soon as it was completely dark, the speed of the Chocolate Donut slowly dropped from its top speed of fourteen knots to three knots. If it weren't for the fear of being brought to the door by the Indian Navy in the middle of the night, with the current situation of the freighter, it would have been right to anchor and stop the ship, in case of a collision accident in the dark.

With all the lights still working on the ship, the crew nervously watched the quiet sea in the dark by the moving searchlights, and all the passengers who were in good health and could speak English joined in to save their lives.

God is still taking care of it, and a bright half moon always hangs in the sky, bringing a lot of help to the nervous people on the ship. A total of two ships sailed close to the Chocolate Donut throughout the night, but fortunately, the attendants on both cargo ships noticed the warning lights that kept on all night in time, and made timely adjustments to their routes to avoid a collision accident.

In the process of walking in the opposite direction, the seafarers on the Chocolate Donut used lights to briefly describe their own plight to the other party, reminding the other party not to accept any form of inspection and strengthen their defense, which can be regarded as fulfilling their duty of mutual assistance.

When the sun rose, the crew, who had regained their visibility, had no time to rest, and quickly resumed their maximum speed of fourteen knots and fled for their lives. I only ran a little more than 30 nautical miles at night, which was not enough for a high-speed speedboat to run for an hour, so it was reassuring to run a little farther for the sake of everyone's lives. It was not until twenty-four hours had passed, completely away from the sphere of influence of the Indian Navy, that the little heart that everyone had hung in their throats could be regarded as safely falling back into their stomachs, and the economic speed of ten knots during the day and three knots at night was restored.

After a week of alternating fast and slow sailing, he finally arrived safely in the port of Karachi before everyone was dragged down.

Before ending the voyage, Captain John specially called Wu Liang and the four mercenaries to the side, talked one by one, and in addition to verbal thanks, he also gave each of them two thousand dollars in hardship expenses, and because Wu Liang used a large number of rockets, he also received an additional ten thousand dollars in special ammunition reimbursement expenses. Although the ammunition used was far more than that reported to the captain, Wu Liang had no way to explain where the ammunition came from and had to pay for it himself.

When the Chocolate Donut was towed into the harbor by a tugboat with bullet holes and a ladder twisted by the explosion, it instantly attracted everyone's attention, and soon well-informed reporters arrived at the scene. The Pakistani military also reacted quickly as soon as it received the news, sending a large number of military police to surround the dock where the Chocolate Donut was moored. I hope there are no other contraband on board, otherwise if they are searched, they will not be able to eat and walk away.

However, all this had little to do with Wu Liang, the guests who took the boat, except for two wounded who were particularly seriously injured and had difficulty moving, all the passengers disembarked in advance ten nautical miles away from the port, and quietly went ashore from an inconspicuous beach in two large lifeboats.

Despite the formalities and personal documents, a bad experience with the Indian Navy can still lead to huge problems, and the Pakistani military will definitely make a big fuss about it, and it is better to go if it does not want to be delayed by the endless investigation. And Wu Liang doesn't want to be marked as a mercenary in his own information, otherwise he may add a little variable to his remaining more than half a year, and it will be really bad if the Japanese Metropolitan Police Department finds out that he is abnormal.

Along with the lifeboat landed the boatswain of the Chocolate Donuts, and he led everyone to go through immigration procedures from a staff member he knew well. Of course, everything depends on Franklin to open the way, and money is always easy to do, and it can be easily done with only a hundred dollars per person.

The group of eight did not stop too much in Karachi Harbor for a moment, and Lucy and Michael were in a hurry to rush back to London to publish the most valuable and hottest first-hand news while "The Chocolate Donut Attack on the Indian Navy" had not yet fermented---- still working towards the Pulitzer Prize. Teddy's family also wanted to get to the UK as soon as possible to start a new life of their own. Wu Liang is the same, in order to avoid being deducted reward points if he fails to complete the main quest, he is also in a hurry to return to Japan before the end of the month and stay with the feather fang for an hour.

Just in time to catch ---- flight, the fastest public transport in the area, from the port of Karachi to Islamabad. Due to the urgency of the time, and the fact that the economy class was full, I had to spend a small $2,000 extra to take ---- business class, not that I didn't want to book first class, but I didn't have it on this flight.

The journey from Karachi to Islamabad is a little further than the distance between Beijing and Shanghai, more than 1,500 kilometers, and the two-hour and 40-minute flight is quickly over. There was not enough rest along the way, and it was time for everyone to be separated again, but no one had the heart to think too much, even the most emotional Lucy, she and Michael also needed to take care of Teddy's family, who was not very good at speaking, to go to the customs to go through some formalities, and there was really no time to see off Wu Liang, who was the first to leave.

Under Lucy's repeated requests, Wu Liang couldn't help it, so he gave her the contact information and address of the Happy Forest Hotel. Lucy said that when the film could be released, she would send a video to Wu Liang as soon as possible, and said that if she had the opportunity to come to Japan, she would go to Happy Forest to taste it.

After passing through the security checkpoint with a first-class ticket, he was still wearing a dirty camouflage uniform with a little blood stains that didn't match his identity, and Wu Liang was carrying an empty bag on his back (conspicuous, prohibited, and valuable were all collected into the space!). Sitting on the soft sofa in the VIP lounge, lazily not wanting to move again. After seeing terrifying giant monsters, harvesting valuable treasures, and meeting new friends with somewhat eccentric personalities, this short and long adventure full of thrilling content has finally come to an end.
