Chapter 148 - Memories
"No need to be polite, everyone. Since you've come, we will take care of you. We will share the good fortune and share the bad fortune."
"That's right, that's right."
This time, they became even more lively. Life on the fishing boat was originally quite boring, and there weren't many entertainment projects. They usually played cards and drank wine. And because of their work, they couldn't casually come ashore. There were many restrictions on their time limit. So the addition of new members made them very lively. It was no longer that lifeless.
Just like that, Li Xiang and A Ming joined the boat, and they were one step closer to the end of their mission. Finally, they could capture all the drugs on their ship and stop poisoning the people here.
At night, the sky was rather dark. The baldy treated everyone to a rather good dinner, which was very sumptuous. Every time there was a shipment, the baldy would reward everyone. Although it was very enjoyable to have a sumptuous dinner every time, some people did not look that happy when they thought of the price they had to pay. If they weren't careful, they might end up here.
Carrying goods carried a huge risk. Although they were always very successful, many people were still very careful because if they weren't careful, then there would be no way for them to make money.
Everyone knew that, but there was one person who had a serious expression on his face. Some people were still smiling on the surface, because no matter how much they wanted to worry, it was useless. It was only to increase their worries.
Li Xiang sat beside the baldy. Today, he had even drank a lot of wine, but was not drunk. Because his alcohol tolerance was not bad, the baldy kept letting him drink. He didn't know what his intentions were. After drinking for a while, Li Xiang knew that it was time to pass on the information. Li Xiang had originally wanted to pass on the news as soon as possible, but the bald man had always been following him.
Thinking about it, it was impossible for him to be completely at ease with himself. Therefore, tonight would be a test. If he was testing the two of them, then they might be able to pass on this information.
A Ming also thought of this problem, but the two of them were afraid that if the baldy didn't lie to them, the two of them would lose their best opportunity, so Li Xiang had been waiting for this chance.
Li Xiang lied and said that he was going to the toilet, then looked at A Ming and said immediately: "Wait, I'm going too."
These words made the people beside them burst out in laughter, and one after another, they began to mock the two of them.
"These two people are really like glue, they even need to go to the toilet together."
"That's right, that's right. She looks like a young wife."
A Ming did not speak and followed Li Xiang out. Li Xiang lit up a cigarette. Watching the smoke slowly burn, his heart was a bit confused. He didn't know if he should take the risk.
A Ming took his cigarette and fiercely inhaled.
After a long while, he opened his mouth, "I don't know if the baldy's words are true or not." He did not say the following words, and Li Xiang knew what he would say.
If the information was real, he would be able to eliminate this Drug trafficking groups in one fell swoop. However, if the information was fake, then both of their lives would have also come to an end.
This crucial choice was their lives. A Ming threw the cigarette on the ground and stepped on it fiercely. He cursed angrily.
After a long while, he said, "I'll do the information. If it's true, then I'll be able to survive. But if it's fake, let the baldy kill me. This way you can live here safely and the baldy will no longer suspect you. This is the best and fastest way to do it. "
Li Xiang looked at him in shock, shook his head, and said with a trembling voice: "No, we definitely have a better way, we cannot take such risks. You can't sacrifice your life just because you have to accomplish a task. I will definitely not agree! "
A Ming pressed his hand against Li Xiang's neck, and said with a rough voice: "This is not just a single mission, this is related to the lives of many people. As long as we complete this mission, we can save a lot of lives. Maybe I wasn't so unlucky. If what the baldy said was true, then I wouldn't have to sacrifice myself. But Li Xiang, do you know that this mission has to sacrifice a person? I have nothing to worry about. Sacrifice my life. Li Xiang, listen to me this once! "
Li Xiang stubbornly shook his head, "No, we will definitely think of a better way to resolve this matter, and we won't necessarily have to sacrifice your life. If you give your life in exchange for the success of these actions, what do you expect us brothers to do? What do you want me to do! 'Don't tell me you want me to bear the burden of harming my own brother.'
"Fame, let me spend my whole life in a life of sleepless nights!"
A Ming shook his head, indicating that he did not want to, and he did not want such an outcome, but when he thought about it, he felt that if he failed the mission. They would face enormous losses and casualties. Not only that, but those people would also change the location of the deliveries because of the discovery of the location. Their efforts would be in vain.
And all the undercover efforts were for naught. They would even lose their lives because of this. This was the result that A Ming could not bear, so right now, he was also conflicted. However, when he thought about how hard it would be for a soldier to choose a path, he realized that it would be hard for him to walk down that road.
He should have known that he had to face many sacrifices, even if it meant sacrificing his own life.
But if he said it like that, Li Xiang would definitely not agree to it, so he had to hide this matter from her.
Thinking this way, A Ming said to Li Xiang: "Alright, then we will act according to the circumstances, and not tell the upper echelons about the operation this time. When we are certain of it, the two of us will begin our operation. I believe that with the strength of the two of us, we will be able to escape unscathed between them. "
Li Xiang's expression eased up. Pulling A Ming's arm off his neck. With a mischievous smile, he said, "That's more like it. There is no need to sacrifice your heart in exchange for success. Doing this has no meaning to us. The success of your sacrifice is a disgrace to us. If I can't protect you, how can I protect others? "
A Ming nodded, but actually, he had already said his goodbyes to Li Xiang in his heart.
It was not his great dedication but his duty, as a soldier should be, to give his sacrifice in exchange for the success of his action. Sacrifice was his pride.
However, he was not prepared to tell Li Xiang. If Li Xiang knew about this, she would definitely stop him. But what is important now is national security and personal security.
His own life, when compared to the people's, was minuscule. Li Xiang, I'm sorry, I broke my promise to you.
Li Xiang and A Ming returned to the front of the table together. The baldy was still eating, but if you observed carefully, you would realize that everyone wasn't drinking too much.
Li Xiang had also noticed this problem, so he was even more confused as to whether the actions mentioned by the baldy was true. Looking towards A Ming, A Ming was eating without a word. There was no response, and Li Xiang also did not say anything else.
When he was almost done eating, the baldy put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said to everyone, "Today everyone has had their fill. Next, we should get down to business. The Great Bad Olds know my temper, too, as long as you are loyal to me and don't betray me for anything. My baldy will definitely not forget your benefits. I will deeply remember how good you are to me. We'll set off in ten minutes. Everyone, come and get ready. "
Li Xiang originally wanted to pull A Ming and discuss a few things, but before he touched the corner of A Ming's clothes, A Ming had already gone off to the side. Li Xiang was a little surprised, but he thought that he had something on his mind and ignored him.
But just at this moment of hesitation, A Ming disappeared around the corner. This became the thing that Li Xiang would regret the most in the future. If he had held A Ming back then, then some things wouldn't have happened.
Ten minutes passed and A Ming returned with a calm expression. There was no additional expression on his face, but there were some things that Li Xiang could not understand, as if there was something extra there.
Li Xiang moved closer to A Ming and asked with concern, "Where did you go just now? It's up to you to go out by yourself? "
A Ming shook his head, looking at him with a complicated gaze, before saying: "I'm a bit nervous right now, I went out to smoke a cigarette. "Don't worry about me, I'm fine."
Although Li Xiang was suspicious, he did not speak. He thought that A Ming was truly worried about the development of the situation and did not notice the look in A Ming's eyes as if death was at stake.
They all gathered on the deck, waiting for the baldy to speak. The baldy paced back and forth on the deck, not in a hurry, as if he was waiting for something.
After a while, the bald man's phone suddenly rang, startling everyone. The baldy picked up the phone. He didn't know what was going on over there, but he kept nodding his head.
The baldy's expression looked very happy, as if he had obtained something important. Li Xiang thought that maybe this time, it was really the drugs that had come, and the baldy wasn't purposely testing the two of them. Li Xiang became a little more at ease.
However, A Ming became a little nervous, because he felt that this matter was really not that simple.
After hanging up the phone, the bald man made his people all busy, the boat was moving, and they were all busy. As Li Xiang and A Ming had no experience, they were arranged to be by the baldy's side, and moved together with him.
The baldy looked at the two people who didn't talk and said with a smile, "Don't worry, you'll get used to doing this kind of thing. The baldy looked at the two people who won't talk, then smiled and said," Don't worry, you'll get used to doing this kind of thing.
Li Xiang and A Ming nodded seriously, the bald man laughed with satisfaction.
The ship slowly moved across the sea at an extremely slow speed, as if it was waiting for something. This speed was truly abnormal for the ship. At this moment, everyone seemed to have entered some sort of area, and they all became serious.
