The weather on the east coast of the Atlantic Ocean changed abruptly. At ten o 'clock in the evening, the sky was still clear without any warning, but after twelve o' clock, the weather suddenly changed, and it began to rain heavily.
The rain poured down from the sky, creating countless ripples on the rolling sea, but in the blink of an eye, it was swallowed up by another wave.
Woo …
Just as the heavy rain and the waves met, an old-fashioned yacht was sailing south on the sea.
The sea was already wet and cold, and the heavy rain made it even colder.
At that moment, Zhao Yu and the other three women were all sitting in the cabin of the yacht. Reina was steering seriously, Amelora was searching for something on the computer, and Zhao Yu and Ding Lan were whispering to each other.
"Don't worry!" Reina said to Zhao Yu and the others as she looked at the situation on the sea. "I drafted the entire anti-terrorism plan for Casabianca!
The emergency defense on land is impregnable, and there are no loopholes, but this loophole on the sea has always been a headache for me!
I didn't expect that it would come in handy now!
"They would never have dreamed that we would choose to escape by sea. At this time, they are still busy enforcing martial law in the city!"
"Um …" Looking at the heavy rain and lightning outside the yacht, Zhao Yu frowned and said, "We are not worried about being caught, but the weather …"
"The weather! Hehe … "Reina said confidently." You don't have to worry about that. My family has been sailing for generations, so this little storm is nothing.
"Let me tell you, this yacht was left to me by my father.
My father used to run a tourist shipping company, which was responsible for taking tourists to and from the Canary Islands. Sometimes, when there was a shortage of manpower, I would be the captain!
"By the way, have you ever been to the Canary Islands?" Reina asked enthusiastically. "It's beautiful there. There is a beautiful writer in China. Her name is … What's her name again? She used to live in the Canary Islands! "
"San Mao," Ding Lan answered without looking up.
"Yes, that's her! Unfortunately … "Reina shook her head and sighed." We are not going there, but to the Sahara across the sea from the Canary Islands! The Great Desert! "
"Did you say that the House of Sin is a prison?" Hearing Reina talk about the Sahara Desert, Zhao Yu finally got to the point. "Could this prison be related to the disappearance of the world's richest man, or to our case?
"But …" Zhao Yu smacked his lips. "Is it necessary to go there in person? Why can't you use your super hacking skills to investigate first? Just like … just like Hu Lingye? "
"That's interesting …" Amélola looked at the computer and said, "I've worked in North Africa for so many years, but I've never heard of a House of Sin! Why was it built in the desert as a prison? "
"Speaking of this, hmm …" Reina looked at the crowd and said meaningfully, "Then I'll have to start from our historical origins. Since you're all experts, I'll try to be concise and comprehensive!
"Actually, the relationship between Western Sahara and Morocco is not as simple as it seems to the outside world …" Reina looked at the surface of the sea and explained to everyone seriously. "In fact, Morocco only controls a small portion of Western Sahara!
"Most of them are controlled by local armed groups. These armed groups are led by the Polisario Front and occupy the vast Sahara region. "
"Their background is also quite complicated. Some are pro-American, some are pro-European, and some are even from other North African countries. There are even some terrorist organizations and international consortiums …"
"Unlike other disputed areas, this desert area with an area of 30 square kilometers and a population of less than 400,000 is unimaginably chaotic!"
She continued, "Don't be fooled by the fact that the desert is barren and desolate, but under the yellow sand and above the sea, there are rich mineral and oil resources. So, it has attracted many forces who covet the wealth. Every day, they will spare no effort in scheming against each other and playing games of life and death …"
"And all of this …" Reina turned around and glanced at everyone. She then said solemnly, "Compared to the House of Sin that we're going to, it's nothing!"
Hearing Reina's introduction, Zhao Yu and the others had a complicated look in their eyes.
"Blifari is an ancient desert city, located at the junction of Western Sahara, Mauritania, and Algeria. Although it is under the jurisdiction of Morocco, in fact, we have no right to interfere.
As early as World War II, the Germans built a famous prison camp in the Sahara in Blifari!
Based on this tradition, in the 1990s, the Mauritanians occupied the area and transformed the entire city into a desert prison! "
"Did you know? Outside the prison, within a 100-kilometer radius, there was no grass, only endless yellow sand. So, they were not worried about the criminals escaping! "
She continued, "Later, Mauritania lost control of the area, and the prison was handed over to the Moroccans. Later, it changed hands several times. Now, it has become a completely independent prison, jointly managed by many armed groups."
She then added, "The nature of this prison is also different from other prisons. Most of the people imprisoned here are felons from various countries!
"There are murderers, terrorists, fallen dictators, political criminals, and so on. In short, it's a veritable house of crime!!!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu was even more puzzled. "Why is Hu Lingye so interested in this prison? Could it be that the world's richest man, Long Di, is related to the House of Sin? Is he locked up there? "
"That's hard to say!" Reina continued to explain. "This prison is an independent system, and it has no contact with the outside world at all.
The management of the prison is also different from other places. It is said that the situation inside is very chaotic!
When I was working in the intelligence department, I heard some rumors that the House of Sin is full of violence, exploitation, abuse, and other crimes. Those who go in have a very small chance of coming out alive … "
"You mean …" Ding Lan asked, "We have to go to this chaotic House of Sin and find clues about Long Di?"
"Yes," Reina nodded. "If we find Long Di, maybe Hu Lingye's murder and Mr. Miao's disappearance will be solved!"
"But … How do we find him?" Amélola asked, holding the computer. "Since the prison is an independent system, what can we do if we go there?
"We can't go in and be a prisoner, right?"
"No! We have to find a way to hack into the prison's intranet, then find out information about the prison staff! "Reina answered.
"Hack into the intranet …" Amélola pouted. "Doesn't that mean we still have to go in?"
"I haven't thought about that yet," Reina said. "I have colleagues in Western Sahara, but with my current identity, I'm afraid I can't contact them."
"Well …" Zhao Yu looked at Ding Lan. She was asking if there were any agents in Western Sahara.
However, Ding Lan shook her head helplessly.
"Hey, Laura …" Zhao Yu asked the Middle Eastern beauty, "The boss of your insurance company is so capable. Can you find someone to check?"
Zhao Yu's so-called boss of the insurance company was, of course, Chief Yusuf.
"No …" Amélola shook her head and said seriously, "Our company has no business in Western Sahara."
"Pfft …"
Zhao Yu rolled his eyes at the Middle Eastern beauty, but he suddenly thought, It seems that if I want someone to help, I can only ask him!
