The two policemen looked at each other, and the man with the mustache wondered, "There's such a thing? You said there's someone in this container? "
Lu Guan said confidently, "Yes, and more than one person!"
The other big policeman shook his head. "No, impossible. Who would put people in a container? Do they want to suffocate?"
"You'll know when you open it," Li Du said.
The two policemen looked at each other again, and the mustache asked the stevedores, "Who owns this container? Open it. "
The stevedores shook their heads. "I don't know, we don't have the key."
Brother Wolf found two pieces of wire in the car and went up to fiddle with the container lock. Soon, the container door was opened.
After it was opened, there were some large cardboard boxes in the container. Brother Wolf pulled down a box and opened it, revealing some electronic waste.
The stevedores were ready to watch, and someone laughed disdainfully. "It's just some electronic waste that needs to be disposed of, these idiots!"
Li Du said, "Clean up the boxes!"
Brother Wolf and Godzilla quickly cleaned up the boxes inside, and just as the two policemen were getting impatient, a large wooden box appeared in the middle of the pile of cardboard boxes.
Opening the large wooden box, a child suddenly came out, kneeling on the ground, gasping for air!
One child, two children, three children, four children …
The first child who came out was kneeling on the ground, gasping for air. He was wearing a T-shirt with Superman on it and had two tubes wrapped around his body.
The other children were asleep, their faces covered with masks, and there were oxygen tanks in the boxes.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned. The two policemen opened their mouths and eyes wide, their faces full of disbelief.
Li Du seized the opportunity and said, "See, illegal immigration, it's definitely illegal immigration!"
The mustache policeman looked at him with difficulty, shook his head and murmured, "No, no, no, sir, no, no, not illegal immigration. I'm afraid it's more serious. This is Howard!"
The big policeman took out his walkie-talkie and quickly shouted, "Police station, police station, this is William Pier, this is William Pier. Little Superman, Howard, full support, full support!"
The two hurriedly said a few words and then rushed to the children together.
The mustache picked up the little boy in the Superman T-shirt and asked, "Hey, hey, Howard, look at me. You're Howard, aren't you? Show me your back … "
Hearing this, Li Du suddenly realized why he thought the little boy looked familiar. He had seen this child before, but it was on television.
Just after he arrived in Melbourne, he was caught in a storm. He had nothing to do in the hotel but watch TV. At that time, several TV stations reported the disappearance of a little boy named Howard.
This had happened a long time ago, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the time. That was why he didn't think of this when he first saw the little boy.
The little boy was in a trance. He took deep breaths and said nothing. Then, he suddenly said, "Ah, ah, ah, let me breathe, let me drink water!"
The stevedores who were ready to watch the show were in a mess, but they did not run away because they were exposed. On the contrary, they surrounded them together.
"What's going on? Why are there children in the container? "
"Oh my god, Little Superman Howard, he's Little Superman Howard, we almost made a huge mistake!"
"What's going on? What's going on? "
"You don't know Little Superman Howard? That lost child! "
Two police cars drove quickly, and before long, a helicopter appeared above them. It was a police helicopter!
Several heavily armed policemen jumped down from the police car, wearing bulletproof vests and holding shotguns or pistols. After they came down, they immediately cordoned off the dock.
Then, more police cars arrived. Five police cars arrived one after another, and there was also a van with the words "SBS" printed on it. The van stopped, and reporters and cameramen rushed over.
Hans looked at Lu Guan and asked, "What the hell is going on?"
Lu Guan said, "It's not illegal immigration, boss. It's child trafficking. These four children are all missing children. The child who woke up is called Howard. He went missing not long ago. The whole of Australia is searching for him, and all the major TV stations are reporting about him. "
"You even know about this?" Hans asked in surprise. "You saw the news when you came to the island a few times before?"
Lu Guan said, "Of course not. I heard it from these guys. They are discussing this matter."
Another ambulance arrived from behind, and all four children were taken to it.
The police surrounded Li Du and the stevedores. A middle-aged white man with blond hair and a dignified face showed his identification and said, "I'm Inspector Quentin Linquier of the Hobart Police Department. I hope you can come with us and cooperate with our investigation."
Li Du said, "We are willing, but I hope you can understand that we are black gold abalone harvesters. Now we need to trade these abalones first. Otherwise, they will die and be worthless."
Quentin checked the black gold abalone in the storage box and said reasonably, "No problem, but you don't have much time left."
"We have already made an appointment. Just send it over."
"Okay."
Li Du and the others got into the police car. Three police cars accompanied them and sent them to trade the black gold abalone.
The person Lu Guan contacted to buy the black gold abalone was a Frenchman. When the man saw Li Du and the others getting out of the police car with the storage box, his expression was very interesting.
"Cash and goods," Lu Guan said as if he was possessed.
The Frenchman hurriedly said to the police, "Officer, I am a buyer of black gold abalone. There must be a misunderstanding. I am not engaged in any illegal transactions …"
The leading police officer said, "I know. Hurry up and trade."
The Frenchman cried, "No, I am not involved in illegal transactions. What are you doing? Entrapment? "
Li Du didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had to explain why the police had followed.
Only then did the Frenchman relax. He checked the quality of the black gold abalone, and the two sides quickly agreed on a price. The transaction was completed.
As he put away the black gold abalone, he said, "Man, you guys are awesome. This is the first time I have seen a person selling black gold abalone with a team of police officers. This is the first time in my life."
After the transaction was completed, the police car drove southeast to Hobart, the capital of Tasmania.
Hobart was an ancient city of about 100 square kilometers at the mouth of the Derwent River in the southeast of Tasmania.
The city was founded in 1803 and was second only to Sydney in Australia's history.
As early as 1642, Tasman, a Dutchman, sailed to the South Pacific to explore. He was the first to discover this small island and toured the southwest and east coasts. Later on, there was also a navigator who came to this small island, but he had no intention of occupying it.
It was not until 1802 that British Navy Captain Baldwin landed on the southeast corner of the island. The next year, the island was declared a British colony and the establishment began.
