Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

At this moment, a light appeared on the sea.

That's the light of a searchlight.

It seems a ship is approaching the Hydra.

It was a fishing boat, but that fishing boat was quite big.

The body length and displacement are similar to the Hydra, and the tonnage is estimated to be higher than the Hydra.

The fishing boat stopped when it was about a hundred meters away from the Hydra.

The searchlight from the fishing boat hit the Hydra.

At this moment, a voice came from the butler system.

"Master, the Meryl requests to speak to you."

"Meryl? Is that the fishing boat over there?"

Chen Zhao thought for a while and answered the call.

"Hello, what can I do?"

"Hello, I am Bundchen Dion Justice, the captain of the Meryl." The other captain's voice came from the communicator: "Our fishing boat is going to carry out salvage operations near here. Can you ask your yacht to leave this area?" area to prevent the Meryl's fishing nets from getting caught in your yacht's propeller."

"This area is not an open fishing ground." Chen Zhao replied calmly: "Captain Bunchen Judiciary Dion, it is illegal for you to fish here, so I advise you to leave here as soon as possible."

Bonnie Dion, who was on the Meryl, frowned. The people on the yacht opposite were really unscrupulous.

I have already humbled myself, but the other party still doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

"Boss, in the final analysis, we have to use violence. It's just a yacht. Why hesitate? Just sink it. Maybe we can get some money." A rude man said.

"Take out all the guys and make it clean." Justice Bonnie Dion said expressionlessly.

On the Hydra, Portia was shocked when she saw the fishing boat ramming towards her.

The yacht is made of light and thin steel and aluminum alloy materials, which is different from the pure steel of fishing boats.

If this hits, the Hydra will definitely be intercepted.

After all, a yacht is a yacht, and the hull design is geared towards comfort.

Most modern fishing boats are designed to withstand the largest winds and waves.

There are even some fishing boats with ice-breaking function. As long as they are equipped with ice-breaking heads, they can directly hit the floating ice on the sea surface.

"Get away, get away..." Portia screamed in fright.

Fali glanced at Chen Zhao and said, "The children are sleeping."

Chen Zhao nodded and turned to look at the Meryl.

The Meryl was under Chen Zhao's small world from beginning to end.

Within a kilometer diameter range, it is also on the sea.

The Meryl wanted to ram the yacht, but it was obviously overthinking.

What's more, there are two big guys, Amon and Xiaojiu, in the water.

Portia discovered that although the Meryl kept rushing this way, it was never close.

Judging from the posture, it was obvious that it was rushing towards them, and the sea water was being pushed away.

How could it not be close?

Portia wasn't the only one confused.

The people on the Meryl were also wondering.

Judging from the traces of water flow, their ship was indeed moving forward, but why did it never approach the Hydra?

Just then, Gaia floated out of the sea and jumped onto the yacht.

Portia saw Gaia holding two gold bricks in her hands.

Portia gasped.

"Gaia, you salvaged this?"

"Yes." Gaia took the bath towel handed over by Fali and wiped her body: "I have money to buy toys for Evans."

Chen Zhao and Fali both smiled disapprovingly.

Gaia is quite famous in the entertainment industry now.

Not to mention her private industry and famous gym.

In the Supernatural Association, her worth is second only to Chen Zhao.

Just two gold bricks really didn't catch on to her.

Just joining in the fun.

Gaia looked at the Meryl over there: "What's going on with that fishing boat?"

"It's probably from a private salvage company, disguised as a fishing boat." Chen Zhao said disapprovingly.

Chen Zhao was not just guessing. The boom on the fishing boat was not used to pull the net, but a lifting machine.

Then people from the Supernatural Association surfaced one after another.

Portia looked at these people, each of them had one or two gold bricks in their hands, and her eyes were red.

She doesn't have that ability, but these guys' diving abilities are probably too good.

Some people do not even need equipment to dive to the bottom of the water to a depth of 100 meters, and then come up with two or three gold bricks.

"Boss, since they are from a salvage company, why do they disguise themselves as fishing boats?" Portia asked in confusion.

"Nonsense, if a salvage company salvages a sunken ship, it will have to pay heavy taxes. If they launder money, they only need to pay 15% to 20% to the intermediary at most, but if they pay taxes to the government, it will have to be at least 45%, and some The shipwreck will involve international disputes, and it will be very troublesome to litigate in the international court, so they naturally have to disguise themselves as fishing boats," Chen Zhao said.

The reason why he knows so clearly is mainly because he knows Gu Lie.

Gulie's main business is piracy, but she also has some other industries.

Salvage companies are one of them.

Most of today's salvage companies conduct unregistered salvage business.

The business of most salvage companies is to salvage sunken ships and sunken ships from the 18th and 19th centuries.

And both are unpredictable businesses most of the time.

The cost of salvaging a shipwrecked ship is low, and it may not be possible to find it.

In the past, the number of sunken ships was either too large or too small. We still need to search with all our strength, and we may not be able to find one in a year or two.

Relative to the cost of search and salvage, the property that can be recovered may not be able to cover the cost.

If taxes are included, the salvage company cannot even make a profit.

Taking risks has become their only option.

At this moment, the people on the Meryl were already panicking. They found that no matter how they maneuvered, the ship could never get close to the yacht.

Even at full power it can't move an inch.

They wanted to escape again at this time, but they couldn't escape either.

The entire ship remained frozen in place.

"What should we do now?" Justice Bonnie Dion asked anxiously.

He has been engaged in the salvage industry at sea for more than 20 years and has never seen anything so strange.

"How about asking the boss for help?" said one of his subordinates.

Justice Bonnie Dion thought about it for a long time, and now there is no other way.

I can only ask my boss for help.

Bonnie Justice Dion picked up the satellite phone: "Boss, we have encountered a little trouble."

"What trouble?"

"We encountered a yacht that appeared at the location of our salvage operation. We negotiated with them, but they were unwilling to leave, and then..." Justice Bundchen Dion recounted the situation.

"Yacht? What kind of yacht?"

"A very luxurious yacht with the Hydra logo printed on the hull...Boss, this isn't some Hydra organization, is it?"
