"I know what the Chinese mean."

Oberhardt, who was lying on the bunk dying to vomit, said to his companions.

"What do they mean?" Renuf raised his head and asked with difficulty.

"They wanted to kill us, and then no one would be able to monitor where the equipment was going," Oberhardt said.

"They don't want to do it!" Renouf thought that Oberhardt had really discovered some mystery, but when he heard it was just a complaint, he couldn't help but lay down again discouraged, and squeezed out a bold sentence from his teeth: "As long as we If you are still alive, you must not let the Chinese conspiracy succeed!"

"Let's hope we're alive when we get to Peru... I mean at least one of us is alive," said Oberhardt despondently.

"I'm dead," said Asain. "God, give me a sandwich. I haven't eaten meat for a week."

As if God had really heard Asain's prayer, before he finished speaking, he heard someone knocking on the door gently. Asain called out, "Come in."

The door opened, and what appeared at the door was the chef who was good at Sichuan cuisine. He was smiling all over his face, and he was holding a large tray with three bowls on it. The bowls were steaming, and there was a scent It's tangy.

Smelling the aroma, the three EU officials sat up involuntarily, staring straight at the tray, with saliva constantly secreting from their mouths. Renuf looked at the chef warily, and asked hesitantly, "Sir, what do you want?"

"Captain Jin heard that the three of you hadn't eaten all day, so he specially asked me to make three bowls of Chinese noodles and bring them to you. He said that the voyage is still far away, and it will be bad if you starve to death." Guest chef Said politely.

"Noodles?" Renouf frowned. The so-called being courteous for nothing, rape or stealing, Jin Bingquan and Wang Zheyi have been working together for so long, how could they suddenly give them noodles with good intentions? Is there something wrong with this noodle?

"Are Chinese noodles with lots of chili too?" Oberhardt asked suspiciously.

"There is no chili!" The chef said gently, "We cook sick rice, which is completely made according to your taste, gentlemen, feel free to enjoy it."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and put three bowls of noodles on the table in the middle of the room. Renufu and the others looked together, and the noodles were really refreshing, with no trace of chili pepper. When I smell it with my nose, there is also no strange smell, only the strong aroma of pork and eggs.

Oberhardt was the most spineless one. After checking that there was nothing wrong with the noodles, he quickly picked up a fork, forked a ball from the bowl of noodles in front of him, and stuffed it directly into his mouth. The level of Chinese cooking is really amazing. A simple bowl of noodles can be turned into a delicacy. After the noodles entered his mouth, Oberhardt felt that his taste buds were mobilized, and the delicious feeling made him want to sing.

"It's so delicious!" Oberhardt yelled, picked up the bowl and gobbled it up, making a very indecent grunt.

Seeing how sweet Oberhardt was eating, Renuf and Asain couldn't control it anymore. They each grabbed a bowl of noodles and started to eat them in big mouthfuls.

"Eat slowly, everyone. If it's not enough, there's still some left in my pot, and I'll serve it to you later." The chef said cheerfully.

"Sir, you can bring the pot now, I think my appetite is so good that I can eat a whale!" Oberhardt said exaggeratedly.

The chef stepped out, and after a while, he came back with a big pot. There was still half a pot of noodles in the pot, and the soup was so watery, it made people appetite just looking at it.

Although I am full of doubts, but the sky and the earth are big, not as big as my own belly. Including Renufu, none of them thought too much about the problem. After they ate the noodles in their bowls like a storm, they took big spoons to the pot and filled a big bowl each. In order to compete for the few pieces of meat under the pot, Oberhardt almost got into a quarrel with Asain.

It wasn't until the whole pot of noodles was eaten up that the three of them put down their bowls, panting heavily, and nodded their thanks to the chef. No matter how this guy tortured them a few days ago, this pot of noodles was indeed well-made. Only people who are so hungry that their chests stick to their backs will know how precious a pot of noodles is.

"Please thank Captain Jin for me. In addition, we hope to eat such delicious meals every day." Renufu stroked his round belly and said to the chef.

"Don't worry, everyone. You said you like noodles, so I'll just make noodles for you. Why do you have to eat pickled mustard every day?" the chef said.

Seeing the Chinese chef leaving the cabin with the pots and bowls in hand, Renuf put away the smile on his face, stared at his two subordinates and asked, "Don't you think this is a bit strange?"

"Why is it so strange?" Oberhardt and Asain asked at the same time. People's thinking will slow down after eating a full meal. These two are like this now, so they can't understand what Renuf wants to say at all.

"Why are the Chinese suddenly making us a pot of noodles? Don't they want to starve us to death?" Renouf asked.

"Maybe they are afraid that our death on the boat will hinder them." Asain replied nonsensically. In his opinion, it doesn't matter if the Chinese have a conspiracy or conscience discovers, as long as it can make him eat a good meal , he is satisfied, is it necessary to analyze so many other things?

"I suspect they are trying to win us over in this way so that we can make it easier for them," Renouf said.

"Maybe." Oberhardt yawned for a long time, and said, "What are their intentions, I think we will find out by tomorrow at the latest. As for whether we should provide them with convenience, Mr. Renouf , you are our leader, it is up to you to decide."

After all, he fell back on his bed with his head up, and within a few minutes he was snoring like thunder.

“What a rare meal...”

Asain grunted and fell down too. Sitting alone, Renufu felt tiredness rolling in, his mind became more and more unclear, and at last he didn't know when he fell down on the bed and fell asleep.

"They all fell down."

A crew member who was listening to the wind outside Renuf's cabin ran back to the captain's cabin lightly and reported to Jin Bingquan and Wang Zheyi.

"Haha, after so many days of tossing and three times the dose of powerful sleeping pills, it's strange that they can survive for a quarter of an hour." Jin Bingquan laughed.

"We have to hurry up to avoid long nights and dreams." Wang Zheyi reminded in a deep voice.

"I understand. I have already sent a signal to the Sea of ​​Clouds, and it will be able to approach right away." Jin Bingquan replied.

In less than an hour, a searchlight came over the sea, and then everyone standing on the side of the ship saw a huge monster slowly approaching. It was the Chinese ocean-going cargo ship Yunhai that had agreed to meet them. The two boats got closer and closer, and a cable was thrown from the Sea of ​​Clouds, and the crew of the Merrill took it and tied it to their own boat. The mooring winch turned slowly, bringing the two boats close together.

"Old Jin, Xiao Wang, you have worked hard."

A man walked from the Yunhai to the Merrill along the ladder set up between the two ships, and shook hands with Jin Bingquan and Wang Zheyi enthusiastically. This man was Xiao Weihao, who was also the commander-in-chief of this operation.

"Director Xiao, you are welcome. We have nothing to do." Jin Bingquan said with a smile.

"Not only is it not hard, but it's quite refreshing." Wang Zheyi said with a smile.

"I heard that those guys made you toss hard enough, you have to be careful of the European Union protesting to you." Xiao Weihao also replied with a smile. Wang Zheyi’s plan to torment Renufu and others was approved by Xiao Weihao. He knew that taking these measures was not only to express his anger, but more importantly, to distract Renufu and others, making them mistakenly think that the Chinese did not other ways.

Wang Zheyi curled his lips and said: "They like to mention it or not, and I didn't invite them to board the boat, and they rushed to find abuse. We don't abuse them well, and we are sorry for our conscience, aren't we?"

"You should pay attention to the method and method." Xiao Weihao said casually, then changed a serious expression, and ordered: "Okay, let's start to act."

A container crane unloaded from the Sea of ​​Clouds to the Merrill, and began lifting the containers containing semiconductor equipment and transferring them to the Sea of ​​Clouds. After all the containers were transported, a batch of containers with the same appearance were loaded from the Sea of ​​Clouds back to the Merrill, still neatly stacked as before, and the crew covered them with felt cloth.

The whole process was orderly and there was no loud noise. The two crew members stared outside the cabin door of Renuf and others, monitoring the movement inside the door, ready to deal with any eventuality at any time. However, the accident did not happen in the end. The three EU officials slept like dead pigs, not aware of what happened on board.

"Okay, for the rest of the play, I will leave you to accompany the EU officials to sing slowly." Xiao Weihao shook hands with Wang Zheyi to say goodbye, and said with a smile.

"Be careful on the road. These boxes are someone's favorite. If they break, he will blame me." Wang Zheyi pointed to the containers on the Yunhai and reminded Xiao Weihao.

Xiao Weihao said: "Don't worry, in this case, Qin Hai has already told me several times, you two really have a good understanding."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Wang Zheyi's pretty face was dizzy, and he rolled his eyes at Xiao Weihao angrily.

"I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything." Xiao Weihao hurriedly fled and returned to the Sea of ​​Clouds.

The two boats untied their cables and went their separate ways. Wang Zheyi watched the Yunhai ship go away reluctantly, until it was out of sight, then he turned his head and told Jin Bingquan: "Let everyone check it several times to see if there are any flaws left, absolutely don't let Renufu and the others become suspicious. .”
