Chapter 674 Run away
The feeling of sailing on the sea is sometimes not very good, especially for some people who are prone to seasickness.

The person who was in charge of keeping an eye on the money was pale and tightly gripped the handrail of the ship's side, his fingers were almost able to dig a few holes out of the steel plate.

After the desire to vomit was suppressed again, he glanced at an officer standing not far away, and leaned over, "You must keep the money!"

His expression was a bit ferocious, on the one hand, it was because the swaying waves made his desire to vomit, which had just subsided, raise his head again uneasy, and on the other hand, it was because the money could not be lost.

It seems that the money was contributed by all parties, but in fact it was all contributed by the Meghan Foundation.

Sauron paid 500 million, but this money is actually equivalent to paying the later payment in advance, and after all, it belongs to the Meghan Foundation.

The federal government also paid out 300 million, but the 300 million was originally an export subsidy for some subsidiaries of the Megan Consortium, and now the money has been moved here, and then the goods that can enjoy financial subsidies from the Megan Consortium will go out of customs At that time, they will no longer enjoy financial subsidies until the subsidy that should have been issued reaches 300 million.

Adding the 800 million they paid for themselves, it can be said that the money is basically all the money of the Megan consortium.

They made such a fuss because they wanted to reduce the financial pressure on the consortium's books.

In the eyes of the board of directors of Megan's consortium, it's just a group of crew members and some commodities made of deposited raw materials. These things are not worth 600 million at all.

They even prefer that these people die, and then give a high pension from door to door, one hundred thousand people are in place and in place, how much money can they spend, why are these people worth 600 million now?
Before this guy came, the people in the board of directors had been telling him that he must take good care of the money. If necessary, people and goods can be discarded, but the money cannot be lost.

The officer squinted at him, and said solemnly, "Try it!" The expression on his face already explained the situation, it was a kind of disgust, a kind of disgust for indifference.

The military group is relatively simple. This does not mean that people in the military are all fools, but that their likes and dislikes are simple, and the way they express their emotions is also very simple.

If you like it, you like it, and if you don't like it, you don't like it. You don't dislike it in your heart, but on the surface it shows a kind of philistine identification. This does not include soldiers in the Ministry of Defense.

At this time, the 600 million raised by various parties was packed in eight boxes and tied to a buoy.

At this time, the warship they were on was far out of sight of the transaction site. If so many warships sailed past together, the robbers might just tear up their ticket and leave, although the board members of the Meghan Foundation really thought so.

The current plan is that the person in charge of the transaction will take the money, and then bring the person back after seeing that there is no accident, or return to the freighter, and then contact by radio, and the navy is swarming.

For the task force, they did not think that the boats of this group of robbers could outrun the warships. According to the analysis of the Navy, it is unlikely that the pirates would use speedboats as a means of transportation in the open sea.

It is understandable to use a speedboat near the sea and the continental shelf. The waves are relatively calm, but once you leave the continental shelf and enter the far sea, the waves will become particularly terrifying.

Sometimes even on a sunny day, just a little bit stronger wind can bring up waves of several meters or tens of meters.

Vessels like speedboats simply don’t have the basis for sailing in the open sea. The pirates must have a boat behind the island where they rest, or have some kind of base inside the island. In short, they must not be able to escape.

In order to ensure the safety of the hostages to the greatest extent, someone in the task force proposed this idea.

The money is tied to the buoy and then pulled by the boat. If the robbers don't plan to be reasonable and don't plan to collect the money and release them, it will not be so easy to get the money for a while.

In this way, the safety of those who go to negotiate and contact can be guaranteed, at least they will not be killed on the spot.

If the robbers are reasonable and willing to follow the rules of the transaction, they only need to gather the rope to pull the buoy and money over.

As soon as this idea was proposed, it was approved by everyone. It is safe, not a breach of contract, and quite flexible.

Not long after, a small boat dragged the buoy and left the fleet. Watching it gradually disappear into the distant sea horizon, everyone became emotional.

After a period of time, a high-level watchman on the island in the distance saw the small boat in the distance at a glance.

It's small, but it's not small, it's just that it's not big compared to a warship or a large freighter.

The watchman blew his whistle, and soon the whistles became one. Connie, who was dazed by the sun, was kicked and woke up from his lethargy.

He sat up, smacked his mouth, and stared blankly at the crew members who were tied up in a row, wrapped up the stinky saliva in his mouth, and stood up loosely.

The past few days were the most relaxing time for him. These pirates were actually not as scary as people imagined at the beginning.

Not only did they not wantonly kill any of the crew members, they didn't abuse them or anything, but they treated them well.

They gave all the crew members the necessary supplies, fresh water and food during this period of life. In addition, they didn't need to work. They ate and slept all day long, and they didn't have any troubles at all.

At this moment, when some people talked about the arrival of the ransom sender, they didn't have much expectation in their tone, but instead had a weird "how the hell did you come so fast".

Connie also sighed, yes, how the hell did you come so fast, but this is actually a kind of excitement after seeing hope, not really hoping that the rescue will be slower.

All the hands of the crew were chained by iron shackles, the key was in the hands of the pirates, and they were strung together with a chain, and the two pirates led them to the beach.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Connie's eyeballs flicked around. After a while, he said to the person in front of him with some doubts, "Have you noticed that there are fewer pirates?"

The seafarer in front of him has known him for a while, and the two are considered familiar. After all, Connie has an additional relationship with the company. Even if he doesn't like this person, he will not offend him rashly. Not a geeky person.

The person in front of him also looked around for a while, but he wasn't as fussed as Connie, "It's a lot less than yesterday, it should be hidden, or went to the other side?"

In the past few days of being hijacked, they occasionally talked about these robbers, such as their stupid behavior of asking for ransom.

Asking for a ransom means exposing themselves. Once they expose themselves, how can they escape?
That's 600 million, enough for the company to form a group of people to attack them!

In the end, they also came to a conclusion that on the back of the island, there should be boats, big boats, and boats that can run far.

Hearing what the person in front said, Connie stopped talking about this topic.

A group of people stood on the beach, watching a small black spot in the distance getting bigger and bigger, until a boat appeared in front of them, a fishing boat, with a few small fishes still hanging on the fishing net that had not been dried, You could tell it came in a hurry.

At this time, a guy in a short-sleeved shirt jumped out of the boat. He raised his hands and approached slowly.

"That guy's shirt is nice, it shouldn't be cheap." Connie, who was a hostage, didn't have the awareness of being a hostage at this time, and he was still commenting on the people who came to rescue them.

People around him also nodded. The short-sleeved shirt was once criticized by some as a blasphemy for formal attire, but it has become popular in recent years.

It's hot in summer, not to mention wearing a full suit, even if you only wear a long-sleeved shirt.

Two pirates stepped forward to negotiate for a while, and then they boarded the fishing boat. After a while, there was the sound of a motor starting, and at the same time, a guy in a short-sleeved shirt came over.

"Did any of you get killed or injured?", the unfaltering concern on his face prevented Connie from continuing to edit him, and everyone looked at each other, saying that the pirates were actually not that bad.

Hearing this, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

The next step is the process of banknote checking and releasing people. Watching the pirates dragging the cash boxes and quickly disappearing into the island's not dense jungle, the person who came to pick up the crew turned on the radio.

Not long after, four warships surrounded the place from four directions, but they couldn't find any traces at all. Those pirates seemed to have disappeared completely.

"Will it still stay on the island?" The guy in charge of supervising the money was going crazy. He pulled his hair, and 600 million disappeared right under his nose. He could already imagine , After he goes back, how will the board of directors treat him.

The officer who came to be in charge of this military operation frowned and said, "We searched the entire island and found nothing unusual, nor did we see any port on the back of the island, nor did we find any anchors towed near the shallows. traces of movement."

"Observing the hot air balloon did not find any traces of the enemy, they seemed to have disappeared completely..."

……

It was not meant to be a successful rescue for some because the money was lost.

Not only was the money lost, but the generator sets on board were more or less damaged, and there was no way to deliver them immediately.

But for the federal society, this definitely reflects the superiority of the federation - life is extremely precious, no matter whether people believed it before or whether they will continue to believe it in the future, at least at this moment they believe it.

The investigation surrounding the pirates soon led to an unexpected investigation. Those pirates may have left in a submarine!
And this is exactly in line with the description of the rescued crew members. There are fewer and fewer people on the island. Most of them left first by submarine, leaving only a few people waiting to collect money and leave.

It is also precisely because it involves submarines, a "strategic" weapon that is currently unsolvable, that the federal high-level has never paid more attention to it.

The results of their naval battle against Gefra were based on the use of submarines. If other countries can now use submarines for actual military operations, this is definitely not good news.

Knowing this possibility, Mr. President asked a question, "How do we counteract the damage that submarines do to us in war?"
