Large ferries are equipped with weapons and ammunition depots, and the pirates know this, so they choose to approach from ten nautical miles away under the cover of night in order to avoid the range of artillery fire...
These ants are already close to us, and it's too late even if we open fire now.
This is also what makes pirates so scary and troublesome!
They are like leeches attached to your legs. They will not fall off until they have sucked all your blood. Otherwise, you will never be able to get rid of them.
Qiao Nian's mind raced, and he placed his left hand on his thigh and tapped it again and again, thinking about how to solve the current difficulty.
It was too late to call David or Guan Yan over at this time.
They must solve the problem before the pirates can sabotage the ship.
"Tell the driver to do a U-turn and drive southeast first at the fastest speed." Ye Wangchuan gave the order slowly and steadily.
The man was a little confused and hesitated to say, "The pirates were driving speedboats that had been modified. Even if we turned around and changed direction, we couldn't get rid of them."
Qiao Nian raised his eyes and looked at Ye Wangchuan, his ears and eyes were clear: "Do you want to delay time?"
The man didn't expect Qiao Nian to respond, so he glanced in her direction again and came to his senses from her suggestion. Although he felt that this method did not actually solve the problem, it was the best solution at the moment.
"I'll go and tell the people below."
He thanked Ye Wangchuan and then hurried out to make arrangements.
Only Qiao Nian and Ye Wangchuan were left in the cabin. Qiao Nian looked at the man and suddenly felt less anxious: "Do you have other plans?"
She said it with great confidence, as if she was certain that Ye Wangchuan had a backup plan.
Ye Wangchuan pursed his lips and smiled: "I wouldn't have brought you on board if I didn't have any arrangements."
He invited Qiao Nian: "Come on, I'll take you up to see the excitement!"
…
Qiao Nian followed him out to the deck, feeling the sea breeze and seeing the twenty or so speedboats and pirate ships surrounding their ferry under the illumination of searchlights. Only then did she intuitively feel the truth of what Ji Lin said about the rampant piracy in the high seas.
These pirates were very rampant. They chased and surrounded their ferry, shouting loudly and whistling arrogantly below.
Such arrogant and provocative whistles rang out one after another, as if the ferry was a huge prey they were surrounding, which would be torn to pieces sooner or later.
They are enjoying the pleasure of driving people into desperate situations.
And wantonly mocked the innocent ferry crew.
Qiao Nian's eyes quickly turned cold, and he leaned against the railing with his back straightened. He took out a silver lighter with his uninjured left hand and played with it.
"Wouldn't she feel guilty for allowing pirates to rob rampantly on the high seas just for her own benefit?"
As soon as these words came out.
She laughed first.
He lowered his eyebrows and looked very annoyed: "Yes, how could she feel guilty? In her eyes, everyone except herself is an ant. How can the life and death of a group of ants be compared to her own interests?"
Ye Wangchuan knew who she was talking about, but he couldn't bear to see Qiao Nian's depressed look, so he reached out and rubbed the girl's hair, and pinched the girl's face, which made Qiao Nian's whole body stiff. As soon as her dark eyes looked at him, Ye Wangchuan withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, and continued her words: "Anyway, you have already got the antidote, and we can talk about the high seas when you return."
Qiao Nian hummed in a reserved voice, knowing that getting angry now was useless, so he suppressed his anger and asked him, "How do you plan to get rid of these people chasing you?"
