Fang Qiu knew.
Australia's management of smuggling was very strict.
Because Australia itself was famous for its coastal cities. Almost all the big cities were by the sea, and there were few big cities in the interior of Australia.
It was precisely because of this that Australia's management of the sea was very strict, and stowaways were not allowed at all.
In this case.
It was very difficult to find a place to smuggle.
Because the time was arranged, Fang Qiu drove the car at a speed of more than 80 kilometers per hour along the way. Finally, it only took an hour to arrive at Southwest Island 120 kilometers away.
After finding a parking lot and parking the car.
Louise took Fang Qiu directly to a well-hidden port.
Although Southwest Island was an island, it was actually only separated from the land by a few rivers. There were ports around the island. Except for one regular port, the rest were all ports for smuggling.
There were quite a few people in the illegal immigration business on this island.
Arriving at the port.
Fang Qiu observed carefully.
He found that this should be a cargo port.
At this time, a large fishing boat was parked in the darkness in the distance, which was difficult for ordinary people to see.
Just as Fang Qiu was observing carefully.
Louise, on the other hand, walked to a warehouse on the dock and knocked on the door.
"You're here?"
Inside the warehouse, a very sloppy man came out.
From his appearance, this big man was not a good person.
"Now, can we go?"
Louise asked.
"You can get on the boat first. It will take a while before we can go."
Saying.
The big man glanced at Fang Qiu, who was following him, and then waved his hand, motioning for the two to wait on the dock.
After a while.
The burly man drove the speedboat over, picked up Fang Qiu and Louise, and quickly drove to the thick wooden ship that was parked in the distance.
On the boat, Fang Qiu found that the boat was very big. It should be used to transport goods. The boat was also full of goods. Maybe because it was not time to leave the port, so they did things like smuggling.
However.
Just as the big man sent Fang Qiu and Louise to the boat and was about to turn back.
Suddenly.
"Chirp chirp chirp …"
A sharp alarm suddenly sounded.
With the alarm, there were red and blue lights.
It was the Marine Police!
Standing on the boat, Louise grabbed Fang Qiu and squatted down beside the eaves.
At this time, a Marine Police speedboat quickly rushed to the front of the big man's speedboat and stopped the person.
"What's going on? What are you doing?"
The Marine Police scanned the situation on the ship with a strong flashlight and asked.
"I was worried, so I came to check the goods."
The big man said with a smile, "We were supposed to set sail tonight. Didn't they tell us to wait for notice? The goods on my ship have already been loaded, but I haven't received any notice. I'm afraid that there's a problem with my goods, so I come here every hour to check."
"Really?"
The marine police glanced around and said, "Get ready to dock. Your ship can't go out tonight. The notice from above has come down. You are not allowed to sail within three days. If you want to sail, you can talk about it after three days!"
"Three days?"
The burly man was stunned.
"That's right."
The police nodded and said, "Hurry up, get the boat back!"
With that, he drove the speedboat away.
On the ship.
Louise's expression instantly became serious.
"Three days?"
Hearing the conversation between the Marine Police and the big man, Louise's face suddenly became ugly and said, "It was agreed before that we can sail tonight. Why do we have to wait for three days now?"
"Don't worry."
Fang Qiu shook his head and said softly, "Let's see what happens first. It should be that the Australian officials know that I escaped and ordered martial law."
"This is going to be troublesome. Anything can happen in three days."
Louise said with a frown.
At this time.
"Did you hear that?"
The voice of the big man came and said, "The ship will return to the port soon. If you want to go, stay on the ship for three days. I promise no one will come to check."
After that.
The big man drove the speedboat away.
After the big man left, a sailor on the ship came to Fang Qiu and Louise, who were squatting on the deck and said, "The ship is going back to the port. Come with me."
With that.
With Fang Qiu and Louise, he came to the cabin, passed through the full load of goods, and came to a relatively secret, long and narrow room.
"Every day at the restaurant, we will come to call you. If we encounter a patrol inspection, we will push the goods next to us. At that time, as long as you keep silent, no one will know that you are hiding here."
"In addition, you'd better stay in the room and don't run around."
After a few words, the water beast turned and left.
Soon.
The big ship started.
After a short while, it stopped on the shore.
On the dock.
Soon, a team of water police came.
"You, come with us."
The police took the big man away directly.
The crew on the ship were not surprised to see this scene, as if this was the norm.
The same situation.
It also happened at various docks and ports on other islands.
That night.
The leaders of all the ships on the four local islands were invited to the official administrative office of Southwest Island.
On the surface, they seemed to be the leaders of the ships.
In fact, everyone knew.
These people were the leaders of smuggling gangs. They thought of ways to use smuggling to make money, so it was not a surprise to be invited to the official administrative office for tea. Everyone had even become familiar with the staff of the official administrative office.
Soon.
A group of local smuggling leaders were gathered in the office of the administrative office by the local officials.
"You should know why I called you here today."
Unlike in the past, the local police officer looked at these smuggling leaders with a serious face and said, "This time, it is a martial law order directly issued by the top!"
These smuggling leaders smiled and didn't listen to the official's words at all.
"Usually, I can turn a blind eye to you."
The police officer said with a cold face, "But this time, it seems that you still don't know the seriousness of this matter."
"The top has issued a clear order. This time, before the tracking of the suspect has come to an end, whoever dares to smuggle a person will be directly confiscated, banned from going to sea for life, and need to bear more than 20 years of imprisonment, or even life imprisonment!"
Hearing this.
At the scene, all the leaders of the smuggling gangs changed their faces slightly.
The reason why they dared to gather in this place and engage in smuggling without restraint was that the smuggling gangs had been severely suppressed over the years. As a result, in recent years, as the number of smuggling gangs had decreased, the authorities had become slightly more lenient on the smuggling gangs.
Unexpectedly, the punishment this time would be so serious!
It doesn't look like it's a joke.
However, for these people, even if the punishment is serious, it doesn't seem to be a big deal.
So.
After a little hesitation.
The leaders of these smuggling gangs all laughed one after another and didn't seem to be worried.
"You all look at me."
The Marine police officer snorted coldly and directly put John Doe's portrait on the big screen in the office. He said, "This person is the one being chased by the top and is a major suspect. If any of you see him, as long as you report to us, the official promises to give a high reward, the amount of the reward can reach millions, tens of millions of dollars!"
"Of course, in addition to the whole person, people who take the initiative to report any suspects will also get a high reward."
"But if you let us know that anyone helped this suspect smuggle, don't blame me for turning my back on you!"
Finished.
The Marine police officer slapped the table fiercely, startling all the leaders of the smuggling gangs at the scene.
At this moment.
The leaders of these smuggling gangs finally understood the seriousness of this matter.
This is not a pursuit.
This is the official. Directly issuing an arrest warrant?
For a time.
The leaders of the smuggling gangs at the scene couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
Some people were flustered because they were afraid of being implicated, and others were flustered because of the high reward.
What was their purpose in doing this kind of illegal immigration?
Isn't it to make money?
How much is it to help a person smuggle?
This report is millions, tens of millions of dollars!
"If it were me, I would definitely report it."
"This is a lot of money. If the report is correct, maybe you can eat and wear for the rest of your life."
"Recently, I haven't seen a Chinese person?"
The leaders of a smuggling gang began to talk.
And hearing other people's words.
The big man's heart was suddenly a little moved.
Indeed.
Millions, tens of millions of dollars, when can he earn so much money?
Once the report is correct, he really won't worry about it for the rest of his life.
And.
The official tracking is still Chinese.
Just now, he received two guests, one of whom is a woman, seems to be Chinese.
Although the gender does not match, isn't there another man who came with the woman?
Even if these two people are not the people the official is looking for, casually reporting them will also have a reward to get. Why not?
Very soon.
After the meeting.
All the leaders of the smuggling gangs left separately.
After everyone left.
That big man.
Then, he stealthily turned back.
"Officer William."
Back to the administrative office of the Marine police department, the big man smiled and walked towards the Marine police officer who had just threatened them in the conference room.
"Thomson?"
The Marine police officer called William narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why are you back again?"
"I'm here to report."
The burly man named Thompson grinned and said, "I just received two guests who wanted to smuggle in. One of them is from Huaxia. Although she's a woman, she has something to do with Huaxia."
"Chinese?"
William's eyes lit up.
"Yes, this Chinese woman came with a man to smuggle. She won't leave by herself. After settling the man down, she will leave. I think there must be a big problem here …"
