Searching for someone in northern Myanmar, and you call that earning tuition fees?

September 9th, 6 PM.

The setting sun dyed the sea a dark red.

The sound of the "Breaking Waves" engine seemed particularly lonely on the empty sea.

Su Ming stood in the cockpit, staring at the coordinates on the navigation system, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

There are still twelve nautical miles to go.

At the current speed, it will take about an hour and a half to reach the location of the shipwreck he calculated.

But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong.

It's too quiet.

There should be many cargo ships passing through this area of ​​the high seas, but he hasn't seen a single one since this afternoon.

"Ding-dong—"

My phone vibrated.

It was a message from Xiaoqi.

"Sir, please be careful. We have detected three unidentified vessels approaching your area, suspected to be illegally armed. We suggest you change course immediately, and we will coordinate with the nearest coast guard to provide assistance."

Su Ming stared at the screen, not replying immediately.

He turned on the radar scan.

Three points of light did indeed appear on the screen, located in the northwest, due north, and northeast directions respectively, surrounding him in a triangular shape.

The nearest ship was only five nautical miles away.

Su Ming turned off the radar, walked to the stern, and picked up the binoculars.

On the distant horizon, the outline of a ship can be vaguely seen.

It was a modified speedboat with a heavy machine gun mounted on the bow, and four or five men in haphazard military uniforms standing on the deck.

pirate.

Su Ming put down the binoculars, his expression unchanged.

He returned to the cockpit and turned on the live stream.

At this point, the number of online users had exceeded 500,000, and the barrage of comments was scrolling by rapidly.

[Watch out, streamer! A boat is approaching!]

Those are pirates! Run!

[The police have been notified! The police have been notified!]

[What's the point of calling the police? This is international waters, the police have no jurisdiction over it.]

Su Ming glanced at the comments and, unusually, typed a reply.

[Anchor: No need to run.]

The live chat exploded instantly.

【?! ! !】

Has the streamer gone mad?

"You think you can outrun a speedboat in this beat-up old boat?"

[Don't send gifts, streamer!]

Su Ming ignored the comments.

He went deep into the cabin, opened an iron box, and took out a roll of nylon rope, a wrench, and several empty oil drums.

Then he started setting up some things at the stern.

The viewers in the live stream were completely confused.

What is the streamer doing?

Is this a trap?

[You think you can take down pirates with ropes and oil drums? Are you kidding me?]

Ten minutes later.

Three speedboats have surrounded the "Breaking Waves".

On a recent speedboat, a bald man was shouting through a megaphone:

"Listen up, boats ahead! Stop immediately for inspection! Or we'll open fire!"

Su Ming stood at the bow of the boat, coldly observing the other party.

Seeing that he didn't move, the bald man sneered and waved to his men beside him.

"Da da da—"

A burst of bullets struck the sea in front of the "Breaking Waves" ship, splashing water everywhere.

The live stream chat exploded.

Holy crap! They actually fired!

[Streamer, surrender!]

[Oh no, this is going to be a fatality!]

The bald man shouted again:

"Final warning! Stop the ship!"

Su Ming finally made a move.

He turned and walked into the cockpit, pressing a button.

The roar of the "Breaking Waves" engine suddenly increased, and the ship began to accelerate.

Instead of fleeing, they rushed straight towards the speedboat directly in front of them.

The bald man paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"This idiot wants to ram the ship? With that piece of junk?"

He shouted at the driver:

"Turn around! Get out of the way! Wait for him to charge, then we'll flank him from the side!"

The speedboat quickly turned, preparing to circle around to the side of the "Breaking Waves".

But at that moment, Su Ming suddenly made a sharp turn.

The stern of the "Breaking Waves" suddenly swung to one side, creating a huge splash.

The empty oil drums that had been tied to the stern beforehand were thrown into the sea as the boat rocked.

The oil drums floated on the sea surface and quickly dispersed, forming an irregular obstacle line.

The bald man's expression changed:

"Watch out! Don't crash—"

Before he could finish speaking...

With a "click," the speedboat's propeller got caught in a nylon rope.

The engine shut down instantly.

The speedboat lost power, spun around on the sea, and nearly capsized.

The live stream chat exploded with excitement.

[Holy crap?!]

[This works?!]

Is the streamer a devil?

Su Ming stood in the cockpit, looking at the positions of the other two speedboats on the radar, and smiled.

"There are two more."
