Section 1148 - Traffic

After chatting and farting for about an hour, Li Bai's satellite phone suddenly rang.

There was a phone call.

"Hey!~"

Li Bai picked up the satellite phone and walked to the glass curtain wall of the café.

Satellite phones are not good at this, when indoors, the signal quality will become very poor, and only in the open air, will it be more stable.

Sometimes bad weather can also affect the stability of the signal.

After a few moments, he put down the phone and walked back.

"Is it coming?"

Sun Nan was about to pick up his luggage, thinking that the call was to pick up their car.

"No, no, there is a shootout in the city, the embassy car is stuck in traffic, and we can't come for the time being, let's find a place to wait for a while. ”

Li Bai shook his head.

The street is playing ping-pong, and the embassy's car is not an armored car, so naturally it can't be driven.

So they can only keep waiting.

"!~" Sun Fat Man was dumbfounded.

When you are in Huaxia, where will you encounter this kind of thing.

The Ximen reporter said to Lao Hei: "Chaka, I guess, you have to wait." ”

Lao Hei's cousin has no news, and it is estimated that he will be blocked on the road by the gunfight just like the people in the Huaxia Embassy.

As soon as he finished speaking, two military jeeps stopped one after the other outside the seamen's café, and several black soldiers with loaded guns descended from them.

The semi-convertible jeep also had heavy machine guns and a wide chain box.

The atmosphere in the café suddenly became tense.

This is a port, not a barracks, and suddenly soldiers with guns came running, and there were not many of them, so I was afraid that they were not here to seek revenge.

Anyone who lives in the port of Mogadishu knows how chaotic the city is, and to this day, it is still not peaceful, and if you are not careful, you will lose your life.

The waiters simply left the guests and hid in the workshop, and the others stared at the soldiers very nervously, ready to hide under the table at any time, for fear that the soldiers would sweep the entire café to death with the muzzle of their guns.

"Those people ......"

Sun Nanzheng also became nervous.

"Don't worry, it's my cousin!"

Chaka Abaruta had borrowed a landline from the café to call his cousin, and he immediately got up to meet him.

"Cousin!~"

"Chaka!"

The black officer who took the lead took off his sunglasses and hugged Chaka Abaruta.

The atmosphere in the café suddenly became relaxed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't revenge, it would be fine.

"Come on, let me introduce you, the friend I met on the cruise, this is my cousin, Kamo Osaka, this is the official name, if it is the real name in the clan, forget it, I don't want to bully you, it will be abusive and crying, Kamo or Osaka, whatever you want. ”

Chaka Abaluta pulled his cousin to Li Bai and the others and introduced them one by one.

"Li Bai, he is my benefactor, a good brother, a doctor, and this, Sun Nanzheng, invincible luck, a god-level writer, is the one who writes about the Internet, hey, you don't understand anyway, just know it, Ximen Dong, surnamed Ximen, is a reporter, the last one, Dongyingren, Qin Yulong, you and my customers, you and my customers, you have to entertain well, and it is best to do long-term business in the future. ”

"I'm Camo Osaka, commander of the artillery battalion of the Dune Giants Brigade. ”

Because he was a cousin's friend or a brother's title, the black officer's attitude was particularly cordial, and he shook hands with Li Bai and others one by one, he didn't know Chinese, but he could speak a few words of English.

"Hello, Major Kamo!"

Li Bai recognized the other party's epaulette rank and greeted the other party very formally.

"Hello, Mr. Kamo Osaka. ”

"Hello!"

Sun Nanzheng, Ximen Dong and Qin Yulong are slightly more folk.

"Do you have a car?"

Camo Ossaka looked at Li Bai and the others and their luggage.

"We have cars, but it looks like there's a shootout going on in the city, so I'm guess we'll have to wait a little longer. ”

Li Bai briefly said the phone call he had just received.

"Oh! It's the Freedom Front and the Democratic Alliance that are exchanging fire, and it will take at least two or three hours, and the car from the Huaxia Embassy is estimated to arrive at the port at three or five o'clock in the afternoon. ”

Major Kamo Ossaka was clear about the situation on both sides of the firefight, but his attitude was not impressed: one day the shooting, the next day it was blown up, and the day after tomorrow who was killed, this is a common occurrence in Mogadishu and even in the whole of Somalia, and it is not a big deal at all.

It's no different from someone walking on the road and accidentally falling, and it doesn't even have the value of being in the news, it's all too common.

The major looked at the two jeeps he had driven, and everyone was crowded, barely able to sit down, but it was hard to say that there was so much luggage.

Brothers, after settling accounts, Chaka Abaruta's cousin directly quoted a price, and he could bring Li Bai and the three of them together and send them to their destination.

With armed military vehicles, it is around the area where the fire is exchanged, so naturally there is no need to worry about security.

I am afraid that the small local forces and small gangs in Mogadishu will not think of themselves as the first iron, and they will have to touch the government army, and the two heavy machine guns with bullet chains on the jeep are not vegetarian.

"Five thousand dollars! It's not expensive, brothers, and it's delivered somewhere!"

Chaka Abarouta has a passionate smile on his face, and he can be as many philistines as he wants.

"I ......"

"No thanks!"

Sun Nanzheng, who had a lot of money, just wanted to agree, but was interrupted by Li Bai.

"Mogadishu is not very safe these two days, we are government troops, everyone will give some face, we can guarantee safety, even if this is a port, there will be gangs, even pirates, a thousand dollars is not expensive, if it is not a good friend of Chaka, I will ask for three thousand dollars, this is the market price, no matter where it will not be lower than this. ”

Chaka Abaruta's cousin, Major Kamo Osaka, did show his kindness to Li Bai and the others, and he was telling the truth, even if he made money, he did not maliciously slaughter the other party's fat sheep.

After all, the favor is one's own, but the brothers under his hands still have to eat just right, and they can't work in vain.

"Are we going to wait here for a few hours?"

Ximen Dong felt that Li Bai should not be a person who was reluctant to give up the thousand dollars, not to mention that the money was not paid by him.

The satellite phone that had just been used to talk to the embassy was more than a thousand dollars.

"I'm in the port, there should be a car!"

Li Bai looked at the date, it should be right.

"Eh, you're in port, you have a car?"

Everyone looked at him in surprise, except for Chaka Abaluta's cousin and the black soldiers, who couldn't understand Chinese.

"Why not, I'll check it in!"

Li Bai shrugged his shoulders, he didn't just come with storage rings and carry-on luggage, he also had other arrangements.

Cargo ships are much faster than cruise ships, driving directly from China to Mogadishu in one go, with a maximum of two or three ports in between.

Sun Nanzheng slapped the table and said, "I'll go! Didn't you say it earlier, then why do you need the embassy to pick you up?"

If you have a car, it will be very convenient.

"I don't have a license plate! I don't have a local Somali driver's license. ”

Li Bai expressed his considerations, and originally planned to go through the formalities first and pick up the goods in a few days.

"License plates and driver's licenses are trivial matters, I asked my cousin to help you do it, as long as there are some handling fees, you don't have to cheap those scalpers. ”

Chaka Abaruta patted his chest on the spot, his cousin was a snake in Mogadishu, and this little thing was a small matter for him.

As long as the money is in place, it's easy to say anything.

He turned his head and muttered to his cousin Camo Ossaka, and then said, "How about five hundred dollars for my cousin to escort you to your destination, the government forces will open the way, and it will be safer?"

"Deal!"

Li Bai immediately nodded and shook hands with the major.
