Chapter 36 Boarding the Ship
On the evening of the next day, the three of them set off in the same car, and they did not go to the port separately as they did that day. The driver was Hong Xicheng, who knew the road.

But what surprised him was that there was no one sitting in his passenger seat. He still remembered that Li You glanced coldly at the passenger seat before getting in the car, then opened the back door and got in. The sight of Zheng Qitie and Li You sitting side by side made him want to laugh.

And he actually laughed out loud, which immediately attracted the cold gazes of two people in the back row.

"Ah Xi." He whispered, "Are you brothers? Your eyes look so similar."

"I heard that Huang Minjiu got into a car accident?" Hong Xicheng really felt that the atmosphere in the car was a little off. "Yeah~ I heard that he was hit really badly. There was not a single good spot on that bastard's body. Did you know that? He gave us so much money for nothing in the past few years."

Li You patted the seat and said, "Can you tell me the route? We are already here."

"Ah," Hong Xicheng glanced at Zheng Qitie through the rearview mirror. Seeing that he had no intention of objecting, he answered Li You, "We will drive to Jingbo Port in Jeolla Province, then drive the fishing boat to the high seas, pick up the goods from there, and finally drive the boat to Port of Puding, from where we will separate the goods from the Japanese and Yanbian people."

“Xicheng,” Zheng Qitie lowered his head, “There’s no need to share with the Yoshioka Group and the Donghao Gang this time, we’ll eat it all.”

"Eat it all?" Hong Xicheng's hands trembled. "Are you sure? Qitie, that would offend both sides!"

"We've already offended them," Zheng Qitie said without even looking at Li You. "The daughter of the leader of the Donghao Gang and the second-in-command of the Yoshioka Group died in Seoul. We are not immune from responsibility."

"Are they dead?" Hong Xicheng looked confused and felt as if he was isolated from the world. "When? Who killed them?"

Zheng Qitie, who was standing beside Li You, finally took action. He raised his head and said, "We'll make a fortune and then quit."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Hong Xicheng gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay! That's it, what about the ship and the people making drugs on it?"

Zheng Qitie lowered his head, not wanting the two to notice his gaze, and said, "Just clean it up and sell it. No one will know."

After speeding all the way, the three arrived at the port in the early morning. Without leaving one person to keep watch as usual, Zheng Qitie invited the two to board a small fishing boat, and he carried his usual black leather bag in his hand.

The port was particularly cold in the early morning. The scattered lights on the small fishing boats shone on their faces. The three people had different expressions. The diesel engine was clanging. Zheng Qitie successfully started the boat. Seeing that the port was getting farther and farther away, Hong Xicheng shivered and took out his coat from the things he brought and put it on. "Don't you two need it?"

Li You looked ahead and shook his head, while Zheng Qitie had no reaction. Hong Xicheng felt he was becoming more and more strange and stared at the bag next to his feet in a trance.

The boat was becoming more and more bumpy on the sea, and the fishy and salty sea breeze was becoming stronger and stronger. The waves could even hit the deck of the fishing boat. Zheng Qitie consciously moved the bag to a place without sea water.

"Why are the wind and waves so strong today?"

"The bigger the wind and waves, the more valuable the fish is." Li You sat down, leaving Zheng Qitie alone standing at the bow.

"That's true," Hong Xicheng felt less cold when he thought about the fact that he could earn three times the money this time.

The fishing boat was moving quite fast, and they soon saw a medium-sized ship with lights on in the distance. There was a circle of lights hanging on it without any cover. When they got closer, they saw the huge word "Qingshan" engraved on the stern.

Several crew members threw down ropes on their own. Hong Xicheng tied the ropes to the fishing boat and climbed up along the ladder. Zheng Qitie glanced at Li You, threw the black leather bag up first, and climbed up first. After Li You got on board, the drug makers on the deck had already packed 20 kilograms of "flour" in several waterproof transparent bags. Zheng Qitie pondered for a moment, turned his head and told Hong Xicheng, "Xicheng, go to the cabin and call them all together first, I'll go down later."

Hong Xicheng was stunned for a moment, "No problem, but Qitie, how are you going to deal with these people? After all, they have seen our faces."

Zheng Qitie held his bag, his brows and eyes were cold, "I'll tell you when I get down."

Hong Xicheng nodded awkwardly and asked the people on the deck to go down.

"You sent everyone away. What do you want to tell me?" Li You looked at Zheng Qitie. Before he knew it, Zheng Qitie was already seven or eight meters away from him. "Or do you regret it? Do you want to attack me? Do you have the ability to do that?"

Zheng Qitie pulled out the revolver from his waist and said, "Ever since your ambition was exposed a few days ago, I have been thinking about one thing."

He threw the bag on the ground and held the gun in one hand, but the muzzle was not pointed at Li You. "Maybe I was blinded by the life-saving grace that day, so I didn't think about it carefully. Now think about it. I guess you killed Zheng Pei?"

Li You tensed his muscles, "Yes, so what?"

"Aren't you also going to put the blame of drug trafficking on him?"

"That's what I originally thought. I wanted you guys to take the blame and then hand Jiangnan Industry over to Chenghao, but now I've changed my mind." Zheng Qitie pointed his gun at Li You, "Why don't I kill you all and make all the evidence disappear."

He wanted to pull the trigger without hesitation. Li You's dynamic vision captured his subtle movement of pulling the trigger. He quickly climbed over the railing on the right and jumped into the water with a splash. Zheng Qitie only felt a flash of black shadow in front of his eyes, and Li You had disappeared.

He ran to the railing in a few steps and carefully pointed his gun at the sea, but there was no sign of anyone. Zheng Qitie lowered his gun and thought for a while, then took the black bag and opened it. There was a pile of explosives inside. He lit the fuse on a piece of explosives and threw it accurately onto the control console of the fishing boat, and finally cut the rope.

He watched the fishing boat drift farther and farther away until the fuse burned out. The power of the explosives was not great. After all, Zheng Qitie did not want to waste it, so he only used a small part of it.

But this small part was enough to destroy the fishing boat. An explosion sounded, and the fishing boat floated on the sea with flames and black smoke. When Hong Xicheng and the drug dealers rushed over after hearing the sound, Zheng Qitie had already zipped up the bag.

"What happened? Qitie?" Hong Xicheng's pupils shrank, and his expression was panicked. "Why did the ship explode?"

Zheng Qitie did not take off his gloves. "Li You is a traitor. He just jumped into the sea. I blew up the fishing boat to prevent him from escaping."

"You go down first," Hong Xicheng ordered the drug dealers, and when they were the only two left, "The things I prepared are still upstairs! Stand on the iron!"

He said anxiously, "What if someone finds this ship? Will they find us?"

"No," Zheng Qitie lowered his eyes, "This time the gang members don't know we're here to fish, so we can just say we went to other ports."
