"Hehe, that's true. Once this deal is done, the four of us will be able to enjoy ourselves for a few years!" The man in green was elated and sighed. "Tsk tsk, us brothers have worked so hard and risked our lives to do this kind of shady business, but we still can't earn as much as Manager Wei!"
"That's right, it's his own goods. Not only did he take it back, he could also demand a sky-high compensation from the escort agency. Moreover, no one could find fault with him, and they would even have to bow and apologize to him. Doing a business that costs nothing, yet he's so favored. I'm starting to wonder if he's in the same line of work as us!" The man in black chuckled.
Although they were surrounded by outsiders who were eating and drinking, he still dared to say such words in such an occasion. Moreover, the people around him did not show any strange expressions when they heard him. It was clear that the chaotic situation in the Zhenduan Sea was no longer strange, and they were already used to such things.
However, when Lin Yi heard this, he was completely shocked. He did not expect the mastermind to be Wei Zhaotong himself!
Before this, Lin Yi had always found it strange. The route they took to escort the goods was very well hidden, and outsiders could not possibly know about it, especially with the thick sea fog. If they had not known about the route beforehand, the possibility of these pirates discovering the cargo ship in the thick sea fog was almost zero.
However, the truth was that these pirates had been waiting for the right opportunity. They did not even hesitate to chase after them. When Lin Yi and the others "delivered the goods" to their doorstep, they immediately rushed forward to take it. The process could only be described with one word: clean and tidy.
Lin Yi did not expect this to be the cause of the problem. It turned out that from the beginning to the end, it was all part of the Hong Consortium's plan!
Swallowing their own goods and then looking for compensation from the escort agency. This could no longer be considered an ordinary mole. This was Wei Zhaotong digging a pit and teasing the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency to jump into it. After the deed was done, he could still claim righteousness and ask for an apology. Moreover, he had also buried Lin Yi and the others in the pit.
Lin Yi had never imagined that Wei Zhaotong, the manager of the Hong Chamber of Commerce's branch in the Weiarc Territorial Waters, would be such a despicable and shameless person!
This was an old friend that Hong Zhong had solemnly introduced to him. With a precedent like Nakajima Cai Zhongyang, Lin Yi thought that Hong Zhong's friends would all be like this, but he didn't expect Wei Zhaotong's character to be so corrupted. It could be seen that even someone as experienced and prudent as Hong Zhong would sometimes make a mistake.
But thinking back, when he introduced Wei Zhaotong to Lin Yi, Hong Zhong also said that although he and Wei Zhaotong were old friends, they had not seen each other for a long time. People would always change. After a long time, Wei Zhaotong would be blinded by benefits. It wasn't a big deal.
Since that was the case, there was no need for Lin Yi to give this guy any face. According to the original plan, he was going to wait for the dock to lift the ban and then directly return to the Weiarc Sea. But now, he was going to change his mind.
If he hadn't met these two pirates, Lin Yi planned to go out for a walk after eating. After all, it was rare to come to Zhenduan City. But now he had given up this idea. He was going to keep a close eye on the two pirates behind him!
Lin Yi ate silently in front of him. After waiting for the two people behind him to take further action, after half an hour, the two finally had their fill.
"Second Brother, I will go back to my room first. You go to the dock and replace Third Brother and Fourth Brother. Let them come out to relax, have a drink, and have a meal, so that they don't complain behind my back." After the man in black instructed, he got up and went upstairs.
Lin Yi couldn't help but be taken aback. Looking at this posture, it seemed that this person was staying in the same inn as him. No wonder he met him here. The old saying was right, enemies often cross each other's path.
Although the man in black was a little reluctant, he still did as he was told and got up to go out.
The corner of Lin Yi's mouth lifted slightly. He quietly locked the man in black with his Divine Sense and then got up to go out. The other party was a master at the peak of the late Gold Core stage, but in front of Lin Yi, who was at the middle Gold Core stage, he was not an ant. He was really not an opponent. He was just a weak existence that could be killed in seconds.
Even if he was locked by Lin Yi's Divine Sense, the man in black did not notice it at all from beginning to end. He came all the way to the dock and flipped over into a cargo ship.
Lin Yi took a closer look. This cargo ship was extremely familiar. It was indeed the one he used to deliver the goods, but the unique logo of the Equal Heaven Escort Agency was erased from the bow.
If it was just an ordinary cargo ship, it could be stored in the dock next to the dock during the period of martial law. There was no need to specially leave people to guard here. However, these guys had a guilty conscience. It was a cargo ship that was robbed halfway and they were counting on the goods on board to make a big profit. Naturally, they would not be at ease.
Lin Yi waited at a distance outside the dock. Anyway, with his Divine Sense locked, he was not afraid that these guys would escape. After a while, two men came down from the cargo ship. They were the other two pirates who robbed the goods together. They were the third and fourth brother that the man in black had mentioned.
The two walked out of the dock talking and laughing. It was obvious that they were looking for a place to relax. In other words, on the cargo ship at this moment, only the man in black was left.
Seeing this, Lin Yi smiled slightly and walked to the front of the cargo ship. With a little force from his feet, he jumped onto the deck.
Immediately, Lin Yi walked straight to the cabin. Relying on his Divine Sense, he knew that the man in black was inside.
"Why are you back again? Didn't I tell you to go eat? " Since Lin Yi did not hide at all, his footsteps were clearly heard by the man in black, but he thought that it was the third or fourth brother who turned around and came back.
At this moment, the man in black was lying on a wooden bed. He crossed his legs and drank a little wine leisurely. He was enjoying himself and closed his eyes to rest.
"No need, I have already eaten, and I ate with you." Lin Yi's mouth raised a playful smile.
"Who?" The man in black was stunned for a moment before he reacted. Suddenly, he was shocked. His aura of the peak of the late stage of Gold Core was revealed. He pointed at Lin Yi and said, "Who are you? How dare you come on my ship so casually. Don't you want your life!"
"Oh? Are you sure this ship is yours? " Lin Yi couldn't help but smile. He leaned against the door calmly and said, "But as far as I know, this ship doesn't seem to be yours? This is the Equal Heaven Escort Agency, right? Or did you join the escort agency? "
