“What now?”
On the pirate ship on the sea, a man in black walked to the plywood and asked the leader next to him.
As soon as these words came out, a rough man with a beard and sharp eyes turned around with a gloomy expression, "What do you think we should do?"
He stared closely at the direction Luo Feng and the others were leaving. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's retreat first. This operation failed and we must plan again."
“The target person is not simple. There are officials and people around, so we can’t act rashly.”
The pirate ship quickly turned around and disappeared into the night.
The leader returned to the control room, took out the satellite phone, and immediately contacted the boss behind the scenes to explain what had happened.
“I’m sorry, but in order to avoid alerting the enemy, we took no action.”
The boss behind the phone fell into a brief silence when he heard this.
“You did the right thing, safety first, I won’t get the money back, I believe in your strength and you won’t let me down.”
"Thank you for your trust, boss. Don't worry, we have never failed!" The leader said in a sinister tone: "Luo Feng won't live for more than a few days!"
"You should treat this as just gathering intelligence, not a head-on confrontation."
“There is obviously strong support behind Luo Feng, which is beyond my expectation. Acting rashly will only cause us heavy losses.”
The person on the phone also knew a lot about Luo Feng.
But he didn’t expect that this time, the special explosive team and the Defense Bureau would accompany Luo Feng throughout the whole process.
Originally, when Luo Feng bumped into Inspector Jin, the captain of the Special Explosives Team and the Director of the Defense Bureau showed up, and he also knew the news.
But he didn't expect that it was already so late and they hadn't left yet. They had been staying by Luo Feng's side to protect his safety.
If they continue to protect Luo Feng like this, it will be a very difficult thing.
The leader nodded in agreement, "Yes, boss. What should we do next?"
"However, even if there is no conflict in your meeting this time, it can be regarded as a warning. I think it may not be so easy to take action in the near future."
The voice on the phone continued: "After you go back, you need to reorganize the next action plan. Since Luo Feng can mobilize such a force as the special explosive team, it means that what you have to face is more complicated than we imagined."
“So you need more information to decide what to do next, such as knowing his travel time and when there is no one around to start.”
"clear."
After hanging up the phone, the leader ordered his men to continue working intensively to collect information about Luo Feng.
On the deck at the moment, Luo Feng had been staring in the direction of the pirate ship that was getting farther and farther away from them, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
They are lurking in the dark, while Luo Feng is in the light, which is extremely disadvantageous.
As long as the other party carefully observes his every move, he will not miss any possible opportunity.
That would have fatal consequences for Luo Feng.
Although it seemed that there was no conflict with the pirates this time, he also knew that it was just because the people from the Special Explosives Team and the Anti-Counterfeiting Bureau had already been prepared.
If these people really intend to target him, or are instigated by others, they will not let it go.
"Mr. Luo, I have reported this matter to the navy. They will send special ships to patrol between the coral islands and intercontinental islands."
“On the one hand, we want to see if we can find the pirate ship, and on the other hand, we want to protect the safety of this sea area.”
The director of the Defense Bureau came over and said at this time.
“Thank you for your hard work, Director. I think these people who took action should have a grudge against me. You can start with these people.”
Luo Feng thought about it carefully. Among the people he offended when he came to Intercontinental Island, many of them had the strength to hire pirates.
"Mr. Haoluo, give me a name, and I will investigate it carefully in the next few days. If I can confirm that it is him, it will be much easier to handle."
The director of the Defense Bureau nodded.
To untie the bell, the person who tied the bell must also be tied.
As long as the mastermind behind these pirates is caught, these pirates will naturally stop targeting Luo Feng.
“I’m afraid one name is not enough.”
Luo Feng took out his mobile phone and sent a message and looked at him.
“I have compiled the list and sent it to you. When the time comes, you can screen them one by one. I think the person behind this group of pirates is among them.”
Luofeng has a very strong intuition, just like he had in Ireland.
Those whom he has offended, the enemy is obviously among them.
“List? Isn’t this too exaggerated??”
The director of the Defense Bureau twitched his lips and stared at the message sent by Luo Feng.
“Do you think it’s an exaggeration? To be honest, there are not enough of them...”
Luo Feng smiled faintly. He was telling the truth. He thought he offended more people in Ireland, but now he has restrained himself a lot on Intercontinental Island.
Otherwise, the number of people offended would have increased several times.
Director of the National Defense Bureau: “…”
Looking at Luo Feng's serious face, he realized that the other party did not mean to joke.
Looking at the long list on his phone, the director of the Defense Bureau frowned.
“Mr. Luo, there are quite a few people on this list. I’m afraid it will take some time to check them out.”
There is one more thing he did not say, that is, the people on this list are not ordinary people.
In addition to their original official announcements, they are worth at least tens of millions in assets.
For a person of this level, if there is a real investigation, it will also put a lot of pressure on their defense bureau.
Luo Feng nodded slightly, "I understand, but this is the most effective method at present, and it can also reduce the direction of your investigation."
“These people are all suspects and we cannot let go of any possible mastermind.”
He paused at this point and once again set his sights on the director.
“I know that you may not be able to deal with the people here, so you helped me investigate and find out any responsibilities, and I will bear them.”
This can be regarded as a reassurance to the other party.
Otherwise, if something is found, Luo Feng may not be able to be the director of the National Defense Bureau for much longer.
“Since Mr. Luo has said so, I will definitely go all out.”
I have to say that after Luo Feng said this, the director of the Defense Bureau was willing to take the risk to investigate for him.
Because at least it seemed like Luo Feng didn't completely let him bear the brunt.
At this time, the captain of the special explosive team also came over, with a serious look on his face.
“Mr. Luo, we will fully cooperate with the National Defense Bureau’s investigation. The appearance of these pirates is no accident, and the people behind it must be found as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.”
He has more experience than the director of the Defense Bureau, and he knows very well that it is absolutely abnormal for these pirates to appear here.
"It's just that they are hiding and we are showing the light. We have been at a disadvantage from the beginning of this contest."
This is what worries him the most. "So Mr. Luo, I think it is necessary for us to protect your safety 24 hours a day."
The Director of the National Defense Bureau also agreed with what Luo Feng said.
“To be honest, I really want to, but after all, you have your mission and you can’t keep guarding me all the time.”
In fact, in Luo Feng's opinion, even the director of the Defense Bureau protects their safety 24 hours a day.
But it is impossible to protect them all the time. Sooner or later they will leave the intercontinental island.
By then, the Director of the Defense Bureau will not be able to bring anyone with him, so it is better to let him lure the snake out of the hole and take the initiative to hook out the people behind the scenes, once and for all.
Unexpectedly, the captain of the special explosive team also said in a hurry.
"Mr. Luo, the director is right. You are in danger now. Since they want to target you, they cannot let you go so easily."
“I thought about it, we can separate some people, so that we can investigate and protect your safety.”
Actually, he was thinking about why he wanted to protect Luo Feng. An ordinary ordinary person was not in any danger.
But after seeing these pirates, he no longer thought so, and he suddenly became interested.
“Don’t worry for now, you should consult your superiors after you go back and then make a decision.”
Luo Feng smiled faintly.
As soon as these words came out, the director and the captain looked at each other, and both of them shut up at the same time.
That's right, no matter how much they want to protect Luo Feng, after all, it is only the opinions of the two of them and does not represent the meaning above.
Still need to get approval from above, just like this time.
In fact, the Defense Bureau and the Special Explosives Team have done enough. He also knew that it was because Intercontinental Island was interested in him now, but he suddenly thought of a woman, Michelle Tao.
Luo Feng felt that apart from the pressure from international public opinion, there should be other reasons why Intercontinental Island took a fancy to him.
Thinking of this, he planned to make an appointment with the woman and take the initiative to see if he could do anything. It was definitely not because he was thirsty again.
Luo Feng turned around and said to the director of the Defense Bureau and the captain of the special explosive team: "Thank you both for your concern. We can't wait while waiting for instructions from our superiors."
“I’m going to prepare first, and when we have the results, we will discuss the next step.”
The director and captain nodded, Luo Feng's words reminded them.
The director said: "Mr. Luo, you must be careful. If anything happens, please contact us at any time."
Luo Feng nodded slightly and walked to the end of the boat.
After checking that no one was following him, he took out his communicator and dialed Mi Shitao's number.
At this moment, in the cabin, both Gong Liya and Bai Ningbing noticed that Luo Feng had not returned.
Gong Liya stood up and wanted to go out, but Bai Ningbing reached out and grabbed her arm.
“Lina, where are you going?”
"It's not that we've finished talking. I'm going to see why he hasn't come back yet." Gong Liya said truthfully.
"They may be discussing things, let's not disturb them for the time being." Bai Ningbing thought.
"But the director and the captain are here. He ran to the side alone. I was worried that he was in danger and wouldn't tell us."
This is what Gong Liya is worried about.
After all, Luo Feng had secretly hidden the crisis in his heart many times before.
Although Gong Liya knew that Luo Feng was doing it for their own good, she just wanted to take care of her man's worries.
As everyone knows, Bai Ningbing seemed to understand what Luo Fang was doing that was not suitable for Gong Liya to know.
She smiled and said: "You see, although the director and the captain are here, the captain is not here, but they may be discussing other things."
"Since he hasn't come back, let's not disturb him or distract him. This is what we, as his women, should do, right?"
In fact, she was also worried that if Gong Liya found out that Luo Feng was secretly contacting Mi Shitao, she would be jealous again.
At this time, Bai Ningbing doesn't want Luo Feng to have any other troubles.
This is what she thinks Luo Feng needs.
After all, the two have been together for so many years. Bai Ningbing knows Gong Liya's temperament very well, and she also knows Luo Feng's knowledge.
“Okay, Sister Bai, let’s wait a little longer.”
Gong Liya retracted her worried eyes and nodded.
She completely believed Bai Ningbing's words and was not thinking about anything else.
As for the other little ones, they are already lying on the bed, some are asleep, and some are watching cartoons.
Because of the encounter with pirates just now, many little ones got up. Except in cartoons, they had never seen real pirates.
So I was very excited to see pirates this time.
But they didn’t expect that the pirates had no intention of stopping at all. They also found it boring and not as interesting as the cartoons, so they went back to the cabin to sleep.
After a while, Mi Shitao's clear voice came from the other end of the communicator.
“Mr. Luo? Why did you suddenly remember to contact me?”
Luo Feng coughed lightly and said, "Miss Mi, there are some things I want to talk to you in person. Is it convenient for you?"
Not to mention, he really missed hearing this familiar voice.
Mi Shitao seemed a little surprised, but quickly responded: "Okay, when? Where will we meet?"
Luo Feng thought for a moment and said, "Just now, how about the cafe not far from the previous exhibition?"
“Isn’t it a little too late at this point?”
Mi Shitao glanced at the time on the watch on her wrist and frowned slightly.
"I have just experienced pirates. You know that pirates cannot exist in the waters of Coral Island and Intercontinental Island. There are some things I want to talk to you about."
When Luo Feng said this, Mi Shitao felt very panicked.
He was also deliberately bombing the other party, trying to make Michelle think that the pirates were arranged by the person behind her.
“Okay, I’ll be there right away.”
Mi Shitao readily agreed.
Because she couldn't figure out what Luo Feng wanted to say, or whether he had discovered her identity.
Moreover, the people on Intercontinental Island have been urging her to seize the time to get the news from Luo Feng in the past few days.
After arriving at the shore, Luo Feng first sent his family back home under the **** of the director of the Defense Bureau and the captain of the special explosive team.
“Director and captain, you have worked hard today, so go back first.”
Luo Feng stood at the door and said to the two of them.
He still has very important things to do.
