Lao Qian didn't answer "what company" directly, but just typed a haha: "Brother, this request you made is quite special. It's too far away to think about it now. To tell you the truth, even the captain has to Seasickness, but whether it can overcome seasickness or not varies from person to person. Newcomers must have a period of adaptation when boarding a boat, and it is impossible to throw you directly into the open sea and the crowd of foreigners as soon as you get on the boat. Once I can't take it anymore and want to come back, it's called Tian Tian Ying, and the ground doesn't work, doesn't it?"

Xia Yilian claimed it was.

Lao Qian introduced some long-distance fishing procedures in a blah-blah manner.

Shao Lin quickly sorted out the stakes in his mind——

The fishing boats with foreign crews are all in the fishing grounds on the high seas, and the contracts are signed for 1-2 years.This kind of seafarers have the highest salary, but they usually don't have much chance to go ashore, and they have to pay liquidated damages if they leave early.After the fishing boat is full, there will be a refrigerated transport ship to buy chilled fresh food. The transport ship will return in about 1-2 months, and the salary of the sailor is only half of the former.

As for the old money, the places where he trains newcomers are some "transfer ships".They are located between the shore and the open sea, and are supply stations for fishing teaching at sea, crew rotation, and maritime supplies.There are countless people like Laoqian along the coast, and they will be trained in a unified manner after boarding the ship. Some students can't stand the life at sea, so they pay 3500 "training fees" and get off the ship in time. According to the principle of "where do I need to go", the intermediary arranges different ships, and finally deducts the "training fee" of the old money from the salary.

Xia Yi has always praised the venue and sang red faces, but Shao Lin's attitude has always been indifferent: "This training certificate also requires qualifications. May I ask what kind of company you are?"

"Company?" The bearded man patted his chest, "Lanyuan Group, Xiankangmei, squid gold fish products, all of them. If Brother Chen is more interested in Yuanhai, he can accept a one-year or two-year contract , then let's follow Lan Yuan."

The companies mentioned by Lao Qian are all well-known in the fish market, especially the "Lanyuan Group", whose stocks are all listed.The three young men beside Lao Qian heard this, their eyes lit up, and their faces were full of excitement, but Shao Lin's complexion was light, and he said in disbelief: "Oh? Then if I go back and call Lanyuan Group , can we find you?"

"This—" Lao Qian paused, "Actually... we are not from the Lanyuan Group, but from a small company with cooperation."

Shao Lin was obviously not satisfied with the answer, so he asked, "Then what's the name of your company?"

Laoqian scratched his head, and suddenly lost the agility of bragging just now, he just stammered and said that we are also a regular company, and it is enough that the left and right will not lie to you.

Shao Lin tugged on Xia Yi's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "I can't even report the name of the company. I think it's probably a liar. Brother Chen, let's go."

Xia Yi feigned hesitation, looking back and forth between Shao Lin and Lao Qian.

Seeing that someone was about to leave, Lao Qian quickly took out his mobile phone: "Hey, hey, don't. In this way, let's add a friend first, and I will send you our company name in a while, and you can find it online. You can think about it again?"

Xia Yilian said yes, and clicked on his trumpet specially used for unannounced visits.

"Then has anyone come back from the sea recently?" Shao Lin asked again, and quietly squeezed Xia Yi's fingertips under the table, "I always feel that it is better to ask those who have experienced it to rest assured."

"I really don't have time at this time." Old Qian shook his head and explained, "Oceaning is hard work. We Chinese celebrate the Spring Festival, and there are not enough fish outside. Generally, it will be May at the earliest, when the fishing moratorium begins, and everyone will come back. ..."

"That's it, okay, I think Xiaoxia seems to be leaving, Laoqian, let's get in touch later!" Xia Yi thanked the person, and walked out of the bar with Shao Lin.

Maybe the fishermen go to sea in the morning and go to bed early. It is only nine or ten o'clock in the evening. There are almost no people on the street of the fish market, only a few lights floating in the port.

The cold night wind blew on his face, but it didn't help Shao Lin to think clearly.

He sighed imperceptibly.

There is no doubt that Lao Qian and the organization behind him are an intermediary that tricks young people into getting on a boat and going to sea. Apart from cheating money, exaggerating and making false propaganda, there is a high probability that it is still a legitimate business.They did have a slight relationship with the ocean-going fishing boat, but Shao Lin did not find any suspicious clues that could connect them with the little girl in the suitcase.

"The Yanquan Public Security Bureau spent two days visiting. I heard from the old fishermen in the neighborhood of Dashitan that they haven't found any immigrants recently. The old Qian also said that their sailors who went overseas have not returned." Xia Yi suggested, "You Said, is it possible that the ship that threw the box was a passing ship? Didn't stop at Dashitan port at all?"

Shao Lin thought for a while, but still shook his head: "I don't think it's very likely."

"If you just pass by, the murderer has a lot of opportunities to throw the body into the deep sea," Shao Lin explained, "why do you have to throw it close to the shore? Besides, the coastline is so long, why did it happen to float to the salt spring? Missing a girl, or finding a little girl’s body in a suitcase, are not common events, but they happened one after the other in time, and the two victims were of the same age and size...it’s really a coincidence.”

Shao Lin lowered his eyes quietly: "Although I have no evidence, I have to suspect that there is some kind of connection between these two things."

When Xia Yi thought of the child in the suitcase whose hands and feet were tied, his brows furrowed deeper, and he murmured: "...a child kidnapping group that walks by water."

It's a pity that there are no clues to follow up.Nothing at all.

Xu Yunfei disappeared strangely in the amusement park, and the source of the corpse in the suitcase could not be determined.This should be placed in Yan'an, the leader can scold the whole team so that they dare not sleep, but even the police in Yanquan City have a "Buddhist" laziness all over their bodies...

When Xia Yi thought that he would go back to Yan'an tomorrow, he felt as if he was stuck.

What else can he do before he leaves?

At this moment, Xia Yi's phone dinged, and it was Lao Qian who sent the name - "Yanquan Gaoyuan Shipping Co., Ltd."

Xia Yi checked and found that this company is real, but his family doesn't even have the qualifications for fishery trade, only the certification and training qualifications related to shipping. After what I have experienced, I don’t know if it is a trust.

"I've seen this name before." Shao Lin recalled, "It's in the list of fishing ports in and out of the last seven days." Because there were no companies directly engaged in distant water fishing in the list, the Yanquan police gave up this route.

Xia Yi rummaged through the newly added WeChat group and found the excel sheet that Xiao Huang had shared at that time—the Dashitan Fishing Port Sparrow is small and well-equipped. In response to the municipal information reform of Yanquan City, a fishing port entry and exit control program was launched. , now all registered ships in the fishing port have to scan a QR code with a small program when they leave or enter the port. After mooring for a day at Dashitan, it left the port the next morning.

"The timing doesn't seem right," Xia Yi was a little frustrated. "When the ship entered the port, Xu Yunfei had been missing for two days. When it left the port, sanitation workers had already found the body."

Shao Lin thought for a moment, then shook his head: "That doesn't explain anything."

This "Gaoyuan Shipping Co., Ltd." is a registered company of Dashitan, and has its own exclusive berth——NO.19.The big rocky beach is not big, so Shao Lin took a few steps casually along the pier, counting the crooked red paint on the concrete floor, and soon reached No. 19.An iron ring as thick as a forearm is stuck on the concrete pier, and the ship's berth is empty.

Shao Lin looked at the pitch-black night sea and murmured softly: "...the suitcase."

"what?"

"Who on the sea would bring such a big suitcase?" Shao Lin shook his head, "I still doubt this ocean line. Ordinary boatmen don't bring such a big suitcase when they board the ship... Besides, that suitcase is still very new. The suitcases of old sailors must be very old, right?"

Xia Yi: "You mean, we still need to check this line."

Shao Lin sighed again: "Don't take it seriously, it's just some wild guesses."

Xia Yi glanced around and found that this No. 19 was diagonally opposite to a convenience store, and it was rare that the lights were still on.With his sharp eyes, he immediately discovered that there was a camera installed at the entrance of the convenience store to catch thieves, and it was facing the direction of No.19 berth...

"Check it out, there are no other clues anyway."

The two looked at each other and walked over.

This store is the only convenience store in the port area. It sells everything, mainly snacks and emergency supplies commonly used on board.

"Boss, ask me something." Xia Yi entered the door and leaned against the door frame, pointing his thumb behind him, "Is the No. 19 seat over there always empty?"

The dark-skinned young man raised his head, grinned his white teeth, and said that you are new here, and all the numbered berths have been taken.The No. 19 ship is a supply ship at sea, and it comes to us every week to buy goods.

Xia Yi narrowed his eyes: "Purchase?"

"Daily necessities, snacks, and mainly a lot of seasickness medicine," said the shopkeeper's young man, who lived in a fishing village all year round. It’s parked opposite our shop, so it’s convenient for us to move the goods.”

Shao Lin recalled what Lao Qian introduced, and his heart moved: "Shipping to the sea supply station?"

The young man nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, saying that once everything is sold at sea, the price will double.

Xia Yi smiled: "It's all big orders, so it's still a regular customer. Are you familiar with the owner of the ship?"

"Familiar. We know everyone on this street." The young man scratched his head, and then he began to feel strange, "Brother, what are you asking about?"

Xia Yi directly showed his police officer ID: "Sorry to interrupt, let's ask something."

The young man's expression gradually became serious: "Why are you here again? Both the NO.19 ship and the boatman have been stationed in Dashitan for several years, so it cannot be a problem ship."

Xia Yi pointed at the camera at the entrance of the convenience store, and said, is it convenient to watch the video?

The shopkeeper nodded quickly.

Xia Yi clicked on the video, skillfully found the folder on February 2, and fast forwarded.

While watching the surveillance, the two of them listened to the shopkeeper's rambling introduction, saying that he didn't know the name of the owner of the No. 19 boat, because he couldn't speak, so everyone in the fish market called him "Little Dumb".He is only dumb, but not deaf. He can understand other people's speech. He is also a person who has gone abroad to see the big world. He has strong professional ability.

The little mute was short but muscular. He was dark and handsome. He didn't know how old he was, but he must have been under thirty. After all, the sea breeze made people look old.The shopkeeper also said that the little dumb person is very nice, he grinned stupidly when he met everyone, and he would prepare seasickness medicine for the newlyweds when they went out to sea...

According to the footage in the camera, the young man was right. After the boat docked, a short man jumped off and carried several boxes of goods from the convenience store. Then he never came back, probably going to the shore to have fun.

The unchanging screen was boring to watch, Xia Yi dragged the progress bar and skipped a few screens.But at 2 o'clock in the morning on February 29, Shao Lin suddenly held his hand holding the mouse: "Wait!"

In that picture, the iron ring is empty, the ropes that tied the boat on it are gone, and only a red "19" remains on the ground...

Shao Lin whispered: "The boat is gone."

"In the record given by Xiao Huang, the ship left at 2:29 am on February 8." Xia Yi frowned, "This should be the data exported from the port program."

He played with the progress bar back and forth again, and found that the ship left between 2:3 and 19:[-] in the morning—Xia Yi suddenly held his breath—at two o’clock, the figure beside the No. [-] ship was shaking, as if It's the last shipment.Once loaded, the ship just left and never came back!

Xia Yi's heart skipped a beat.

What was that shipment?

Why move in the middle of the night?

Why did ship No. 19 falsify its departure record?

It's a pity that the ship is a distant view in the camera, and the picture is very blurry. In addition to the dark sky, there are two figures, and nothing can be seen clearly.Xia Yi exported the video, took note of the time, and was going to find another monitor in Dashitan.

Shao Lin's eyes darkened slightly: "Call Yan Jingjing, we may not go back tomorrow."

Since the two of them were on vacation before, and they brought their cubs with them, it was inconvenient to take the high-speed rail. Xia Yi had already rented an SUV, so the three of them originally planned to drive back together.

"Hey, Jingjing, there is a mission! Can you add a small virus to the 'home' system you installed, or delete a few lines of code to make it bug?"

Yan Jingjing had already been lying down to watch dramas, but a phone call in the middle of the night made her jump out of bed: "Team leader, what kind of strange request is this???"

"Let's just say that something went wrong with the system, and we had to stay in Salt Spring for a few more days."
