Lunch was ready. Now that they had just entered the deserted island, they had plenty of supplies.
Brisket soup, all kinds of barbecued meat, grilled fish, and Big Quinn even used a clean iron plate to make teppanyaki squid. They had harvested a lot of squid from the sea. Squid was not usually delicious, and teppanyaki was the most popular.
The fresh squid was grilled, with orange-red sauce and golden sesame seeds. Li Du took one and took a bite. It tasted delicious.
Outside the camp, next to the swamp, the tied up villagers were cold and hungry. They were so hungry that they kept swallowing their saliva.
At noon, the sun was shining brightly. The fog had not dissipated, but it was not as thick anymore. Visibility had increased to tens of meters.
Steve also took a skewer of squid. He drank beer and ate grilled squid. He squatted in front of Andrey and asked, "Buddy, you still don't want to talk? If you don't talk, you won't be able to eat. "
Andrey raised his head and looked at him. Finally, he said, "I know very little, and I can't say anything. If I do, I will be killed. I know you are not bad people. I beg you, let me go, okay? I will do my best to be a good guide in the future! "
As soon as he said that, Li Du knew that Steve had won. Andrey had to tell them everything he knew. He could no longer hide it.
Steve smiled and said, "You guessed right. We are not bad people. We are all honest, law-abiding citizens. However, we are law-abiding citizens with background, money, and power."
"You chose the wrong path from the beginning, buddy. Even if your plan succeeds, you will not have an easy time. The people behind us will find you and make you beg for death."
Andrey's face turned pale. He believed Steve's words. Seeing that the other party was armed to the teeth and besieging them, he knew that he was in big trouble.
Steve continued, "Tell us what you know. We will deal with those people who want to kill us. Won't you be safe then?"
Andrey was depressed. "What if you can't deal with them?"
Steve laughed and said, "Then you're dead. You'd better pray that we can deal with them. You'd better help us deal with them. Otherwise, before we deal with them, I'll kill you first."
Li Du gave him a look. Big Quinn walked over and said rudely, "Boss, why bother with him? I don't think he's a tough guy. Let me and my buddies handle him. At most, we'll just cut off his limbs. He'll definitely tell us when his wife's on her period is!"
Big Quinn looked ferocious and looked even more terrifying when he was pretending to be arrogant.
Steve took a bite of the grilled squid and said with a smile, "We have to know what you know. If you don't want to tell me, then tell my men."
Andrey raised his head in despair. He said, "I'll tell you everything I know, but I don't know much. I hope you can believe me."
"Speak."
Andrey swallowed his saliva and said, "I only came into contact with them two days ago. They claimed to be lumberjacks on the island. I don't know where they got their information from, but they said that you're very rich and brought a lot of things to the island.
"They teamed up with the villagers in the surrounding villages to rob you. The villagers took your daily necessities and they took your money. If I participate, they will give me a large sum of money."
"How much is this large sum of money?" Brother Wolf suddenly asked.
Andrey said, "At least 20 million rubles! I have no choice. Gentlemen, please have pity on me. My daughter Sasha Simia has leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia. It's a money-burning disease. I don't have that much money, so I can only think of ways to earn money. "
Steve laughed contemptuously. "Even if it's money from killing people?"
Andrey hurriedly said, "No, we didn't want to kill people. We just wanted to steal things. You're foreigners, and there are no police here. After you get robbed, you can only accept your fate. Really, we didn't want to kill anyone! "
Steve snorted. "It's you who didn't want to kill anyone. As for those so-called lumberjacks? Ha! "
Li Du stared at Andrey suspiciously and said, "That's all you know?"
Andrey hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, that's all, really."
Li Du asked again, "Are you worried that you will be killed if you speak of this information?"
Andrey said in despair, "That's how they threatened me. Just like you, they also carried guns. They looked like killers. How would I dare to offend people like you?"
Li Du looked at Brother Wolf and asked in a low voice, "How trustworthy are his words?"
Brother Wolf said, "More or less. He's an honest and pitiful man."
In the past, he would not have had any sympathy for his enemies. However, after leaving the army, he had become a father. Andrey's situation was similar to his, so he had a rare feeling of sympathy for him.
Li Du went to untie Andrey and threw him a piece of bread and a bottle of water.
Andrey timidly took the food and quietly hid behind a car.
What gave Li Du a headache was how to deal with these villagers. They couldn't possibly kill them all, could they? According to Andrey, the villagers' original intention should have been to rob them and not to kill them.
Even if they had the thought of killing people, Li Du could not bring himself to kill so many people.
Steve contacted the people they had left in the village. They rented some houses to keep their daily necessities and were worried that the villagers would attack them.
The information they received was good. The villagers did move, but they did not attack them with force. They sent food to the people who stayed behind. There were sleeping pills in the food. Several bodyguards were very vigilant and did not eat it. Instead, they fed it to the dogs. The villagers saw that their plot had been discovered and were too scared to go out.
Young Ford said, "Let them go. We can't kill them anyway."
"Let them go? That's conniving. These b * stards will be even more fearless, "Big Ford disagreed.
Steve said, "Or we can give them some pills to eat and lie to them that it's poison. Then, they can go back and look for the people we left behind regularly to get relief drugs."
Li Du thought for a moment and said, "In that case, why don't we just use drugs to control them? Let them work for us. Anyway, we are here to find meteorites. We still have to find trouble with the lumberjacks. The more the merrier. "
"But they are not easy to control. Let's not talk about whether they will be stupid enough to believe us. Even if they believe us, what if they cause trouble for us in the future?"
Li Du said, "Let's go find the lumberjacks first and see how they perform. Then let them fight with the lumberjacks first. If there is a problem, we can kill them and then blame it on the lumberjacks."
Steve and the others looked at each other. "Ruthless! I like it! "
