Afternoon, 4 pm.
In the resting room of the ship.
Dong Xuebing was looking for his phone. He wanted to contact China to let them know he is still alive, but he could not find any communication device.
Suddenly, he heard footsteps outside the door. Someone is back!
Dong Xuebing quickly tidied up the cabin and hid behind the door.
The door opened, and it should be the middle-aged man who was smoking on the deck earlier.
Dong Xuebing muttered STOP in his heart and waited for the time to stop. He bent over and squeezed past the middle-aged man. He stood in the corridor and looked around. When he reached a dark corner, Dong Xuebing immediately stopped STOP and hid in the corner.
"Eh? Where's the bread? "
"… Big Brother, what happened?"
"Which one of you touched my coffee? Bread? Huh? Why are my clothes gone? "
"Huh? I don't know. How come …"
"You were at the door all this while! You don't know? Do you think I know? Ah? "
"Brother, I don't know. I did not see anyone entering the ship!"
The shouting continued for three minutes, and the cabin became quiet again. Dong Xuebing stretched his neck out to look at the corridor. There was no one in the corridor, and he walked into a dark room. There was no one in the room, and Dong Xuebing closed the door. He sat down cross-legged near the door and closed his eyes to rest.
One hour …
Two hours …
Three hours …
Dong Xuebing fell asleep, and when he opened his eyes, it was already dark outside. He wonders what time it is, and why is the ship still not docked? Eh? The ship had stopped? Dong Xuebing was stunned. Although this ship is stable, there is a big difference between moving and stopping the ship. Why is the ship not moving? Is the ship really docked? Dong Xuebing stood up and straightened his clothes. He leaned against the door and listened.
There is no movement? There is no sound of people talking or footsteps?
Something is not right. Why is the atmosphere so weird?
Bang! Bang! Bang! A few gunshots reverberated in the dark. It sounded like the gunshots came from the deck. It was very ear-piercing!
Gunshots, shouts, and everything was in chaos!
"Ah!"
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Whoosh! Dong Xuebing saw a bullet hole on the side of the boat. The bullet had penetrated the boat and almost hit Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing knew he cannot stay here any longer and knew something must have happened on the ship. He opened the door and looked out. There was no one in the corridor, and the gunshots and shouts were coming from the deck. Dong Xuebing walked out of the corridor and up a flight of stairs. He bent down to avoid the bullets and slowly opened the cabin's door.
Bang, bang, bang!
The gunfire grew louder!
When Dong Xuebing poked his head out of the window, he saw sparks flying in the night sky. Those are bullet marks. He looked ahead and realized what happened. Two men were lying on the deck, and their bodies were covered in blood. They were killed by bullets, and a few crew members were firing at the ship. Splash! One of them even threw his gun and jumped into the sea. Looking at the opposite side, the cargo ship had already docked at the shore, and the lights of the city were faintly visible. Several Japanese policemen in police uniforms were shooting at them, and two of them were about to rush onto the ship.
A war between the police and the bandits?
The black boat was intercepted by the Japanese police?
Dong Xuebing does not want to get involved in this. He only wants to return home and tell his mother, Sister Xie, and Aunt Xuan that he is still alive. He does not want them to worry about him. Furthermore, Dong Xuebing does not understand Japanese and cannot communicate with them. Also, he is on a black boat, and he does not know if these people are drug dealers or smugglers. Anyway, he will not be able to tell them.
Escape is the best strategy!
— — STOP!
At this moment, all the sounds stopped. Time had stopped!
Dong Xuebing quickly ran out of the cabin and checked the menu. He does not have much time left, and he doesn't dare to waste any more time. He ran up to the deck. The opposite side is not a proper port, and the surrounding area is quite remote. It looks like a fishing village. A few bullets were still in the air, and the sparks from the bullets formed a beautiful scene with the stars in the sky. It's a beautiful scene.
Dong Xuebing took two big steps forward and jumped off the deck.
The moment he stepped on land, Dong Xuebing got excited. He was trapped on the reef for almost half a month, and he had been dreaming of this moment.
I am finally on land!
I can finally go home!
Dong Xuebing was overjoyed and quickened his steps. After crossing the line formed by more than a dozen Japanese police officers, he reached a small warehouse behind the port and muttered "STOP!" under his breath.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of gunfire continued to fill the sky!
Dong Xuebing has nothing to do with the situation there. He is thinking about how to get home now. He looks around, and there are no cars around. He took out the map he got from the black boat. Hmmm … this should be the circled area. If he keeps going north, he will reach Tokyo. North? Where is the north? Dong Xuebing looked up at the sky and used the Big Dipper and the moon to determine his position. He looked to his left. This is the place!
But when Dong Xuebing was about to make a move, flashing headlights shone on him!
It's a police car! Two police officers alighted from the car and pointed their guns at Dong Xuebing.
“%####@@-----@？”
"¥# @ @ ¥— —!!!"
The two police officers said something in Japanese!
But Dong Xuebing does not understand what they are saying. Damn! Why is there an ambush here? They are very cautious! Since he was discovered, Dong Xuebing did not waste any more time. He turned and ran to another corner of the warehouse. Dong Xuebing heard hurried footsteps and shouted STOP before the two officers could catch up to him. Dong Xuebing peeked out and saw the two officers were standing there. He walked past them and opened the door of the police car. STOP is deactivated!
… …
Time resumed!
Dong Xuebing stepped on the accelerator and headed north. Anyway, it's dark now, and those two men should not have seen his face. There are no public transport around. So be it a police car. If he is stopped by the Police, he can just use STOP. Everything will be fine.
Time to go!
To Tokyo!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Gunshots were fired from behind!
Ding! Bang! The bullets hit the car, and the rear window was shattered!
Dong Xuebing thought to himself. You all are ruthless. He lowered his head and turned the steering wheel to observe the road ahead while stepping on the accelerator!
Whoosh! Dong Xuebing's car disappeared from the harbor!
Dong Xuebing looked at the rearview mirror and saw the two police officers had stopped firing and were calling for backup.
Dong Xuebing had met the Japanese Police not long ago when he came to the National Museum to steal relics. He did not think it is a big deal and continued driving on the highway. He glanced at the black warship in the distance and drove off.
One kilometer …
Five kilometers …
Eight kilometers …
Gradually, Dong Xuebing could see the lights of the city through the windshield. But he knew there will be roadblocks waiting to stop him. He will be killed if he drives the police car through the roadblocks as it is too obvious. Also, the police cars behind him are catching up.
Abandon the car!
Dong Xuebing made the decision and saw a young man with yellow hair holding the car door with his arm. He had turned off the engine and was on the phone. Dong Xuebing braked. That young man saw a police car and thought he had parked illegally. He quickly hangs up and gestured to Dong Xuebing to leave. Dong Xuebing does not want that young man to see his face and immediately ordered STOP in his heart. He walked over and gave that young man a chop on his neck!
STOP stopped!
The young man fainted immediately, and Dong Xuebing grabbed him and dragged him into the bushes by the roadside. After that, he boarded his old Accord and drove north!
When that young man wakes up, he will surely report him to the police. That's why Dong Xuebing must speed up before his car is exposed. He must reach Tokyo as soon as possible.
One hour …
Three hours …
Five hours …
Dong Xuebing drove through the night, and he doesn't know where he is. He only knows he is heading north, and he should be near Tokyo from the bustling streets.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing heard the police sirens getting closer.
Dong Xuebing frowned and looked at the rearview mirror. Two police cars are chasing after him, and one of them is still holding a gun.
Bang! A bullet was fired! The rear window shattered!
Am I exposed?
Dong Xuebing turned the steering wheel and turned into another street!
Screech … Dong Xuebing stepped on the brakes and shouted STOP!
Dong Xuebing alighted from the car and ran into an alley. He quickly disappeared from the street before disabling the STOP command!
Dong Xuebing cannot waste any more STOP. The Police are after him, and his identity card and other documents are in the sea. Without money and documents, how is he going to buy a plane ticket? That's why Dong Xuebing must leave behind some STOP to sneak into the flight. This way, he can return to China without arguing. If he landed in the hands of the Police, he might not be able to return to his hometown this month even if he tried to explain to them.
He looked at the road signs. Tokyo, Japan!
Airport, this bro is coming!
Ten seconds later, two police cars braked and stopped by the roadside. Four fully armed officers alighted from the cars and approached the Accord with their guns raised.
But when the Japanese officers got closer, they were shocked to see the driver is gone! They had been staring at the car without blinking. The car door was not opened, and there was no one in the driver seat!
