Chapter 1172 The Voice Behind
Nakano Shuisheng looked outside, with a puzzled expression on his face.
The siege of those pirates was so tight just now that everyone couldn't leave to support the stern. Why did they suddenly stop attacking?
Although the sea is so dark that it's hard to see clearly, you can roughly see that the pirates surrounded the ship from a distance and stopped attacking, but one of the ships ran to the stern, and several ships collided, as if What are they discussing? It doesn't look like they are about to forcibly land on a freighter.
What the hell are these guys doing?
Also, the sound of a grenade explosion was clearly heard at the stern of the ship just now, indicating that someone launched an attack from the stern of the ship, and that relatively remote corner has the least defense force. On the one hand, the manpower is limited, and on the other hand, the personnel on board and the escorted supplies are not there. Over there, why is it suddenly quiet now?
Nakano Shuisheng was even ready for the breakthrough, and had already arranged the second stage of the defensive circle, which was to reduce the defensive area.
Seeing their actions just now, they pulled out a few boats from the stern, and then gathered together without any movement. This extremely abnormal scene made Nakano Shuisheng and everyone on the boat very puzzled.
Could it be that the other party is preparing some more powerful big move?
Keiko Ito and Mitsuko Matsuda stood in a safe corner. Watching the fierce gun battle before, their nervous palms were sweating, and their hearts were beating wildly. Shooting was almost random at a distance, everyone on his side had a cover position, and there were no casualties, but he heard the dense gunshots, the sound of bullets tearing through the air, and the thud of hitting the steel plate on the ship. Noisy, these two women who have never experienced danger, they are quite calm without being scared to pee their pants.
The two women were wondering whether the line of defense would be breached, and what kind of tragedy would happen to them and others after the breach, but the other party suddenly stopped attacking.
Mitsuko Matsuda cautiously looked around, then retracted her head, and said with a strange expression: "Madam, those pirates have stopped firing and scattered a little bit, I don't know what the hell they are doing?"
Keiko Ito also showed her head from her hiding place, looked around, and also looked puzzled: "Are they discussing some trick again?"
Matsuda Mitsuko glanced carefully again, suddenly thought of a possibility, his face changed, and he said in horror: "Are they going to sink our ship with guns when they see that they can't take down the ship?"
Keiko Ito was also startled by Matsuda Mitsuko's words, and immediately thought of how this is possible, these people are all in small boats that are easy to drive, and even if there are shells, they are at most one or two portable bazookas. Cargo ship, that's impossible, I couldn't help but glared at Mitsuko Matsuda: "Don't talk nonsense, you're scaring yourself, there are small boats outside, where are there so many powerful cannons?"
Mitsuko Matsuda also came back to her senses at this time, and blinked a little embarrassedly: "Then why didn't they attack anymore, did they find it difficult to attack, so they stopped?"
Keiko Ito shook her head: "Let's see."
Just as everyone was whispering and discussing, those pirate ships seemed to have received an order, they all changed direction, and headed outside, even as if they were about to evacuate.
Nakano Shuisheng was dumbfounded, the pirates just evacuated like this?
They have completely suppressed themselves and others, and they can log on to the cargo ship to fight a land battle with themselves and others. With so many manpower advantages, they retreated at such a juncture?
What the hell are they doing, are they plotting again?
However, these pirate ships didn't look like they were planning to conspire at all, they retreated straight away without stopping.
"These pirates seem to have really withdrawn?"
"Strange, how did they leave?"
"Thank God, I thought I was dead today."
Nakano Shuisheng and others also came out from the hidden place, but he has not completely relaxed his vigilance. Who knows if these pirates shot a feint? The few boats just now were near the stern, and there were at least a dozen people on them. Personally, now that the boat has been taken back, there seems to be no one on it. Could it be that these people are already hiding on the boat?
Thinking of this, Nakano couldn't help but shudder. Could it be that the other party deliberately did this to make him and others relax their vigilance, but in fact their people were already lurking on the boat, killing themselves and others while he was waiting for them to relax? one strike?
Nakano Shuisheng waved his hands and said, "All follow me, check the stern of the ship..."
Just when the Nakano Aquatic Organization was about to thoroughly check the stern, a mercenary standing on the top of the freighter suddenly shouted in surprise: "Boss, look quickly."
Nakano Shuisheng turned his head, but saw that the mercenary was shining a huge multi-purpose searchlight on the freighter on the last few pirate ships in the distance, which were also the few pirate ships that were pulled out from the stern. Due to the fact that they were traveling at a significantly slower speed, they hadn't left the range of the searchlights for a while, so everyone could still vaguely see some of the above situation.
Not only Nakano Shuisheng, but other people also turned their heads to look at the mercenary's cry. Seeing this, they had already seen something with good eyesight, and they immediately yelled in surprise.
"There are people up there!"
"A lot of people seem to be dead. Look at that person, his head is on the side of the boat, and there is no movement at all..."
"It seems that they are really dead, what's going on?"
"Why did they die? Could it be that they were all killed by that guy under the river? When did he become so powerful that he killed so many people by himself?"
"He made a great contribution this time."
Nakano Shuisheng also saw the scene on the boat clearly. The corpses on the boat made him feel a bit chilly in his heart. He heard other people's comments, but he didn't really believe that the death of these people was related to the place he arranged. It doesn't matter what the defensive guy called Hexia does.
It's not that Nakano Suisheng doubted the strength of his subordinates. If Hexia only killed so many people, it is not impossible for Nakano Suisheng to believe it. After all, in the era of hot weapons, if one person occupies a favorable position by surprise, one person shoots and kills hundreds of people It was all possible, but Nakano Shuisheng absolutely did not believe that Kawashita had such a good intention to throw people back into the boat one by one after killing them.
Although wondering how these people died, Nakano Shuisheng still breathed a sigh of relief. At least he knew that the evacuation of the other party should be related to the death of these people, not some conspiracy. I know why.
With a sullen face, Nakano Shuisheng led a few mercenaries towards the stern of the ship, and the people on board turned on all the lights on the ship. When they were dealing with the sneak attack just now, they had already turned off all the lights on the ship, so as not to wait for others to become enemies. target.
The lights on the boat were turned on again, and Nakano Shuisheng and others walked towards the stern of the boat cautiously holding their guns. When they reached the place where Hexia was originally hiding, the people behind Nakano Shuisheng had already found Hexia, but he was no longer there. Where he was supposed to be, he was lying on the cold ground, unable to move again.
Nakano Shuisheng's face became more and more gloomy. Hexia died here. Who killed those dead pirates?
Nakano Shuisheng checked the place where Kawashita was hiding, but found that it had been completely destroyed by the violent explosion. Judging from the wounds on Kawashita's body, it must be the traces left by the explosion, that is to say, Kawashita died in the explosion.
The dull explosion of the grenade was heard by Nakano Shuisheng and others. This explosion once made them quite worried because they were not equipped with grenades, but the screams of fighting and screams after a while made them relax. The tone, still fighting, means that Hexia is fine, but now it seems that Hexia should have died when the explosion occurred, so who is fighting who behind?
Nakano Shuisheng stood up with a gloomy and terrifying face. Although the pirates retreated, it was a good thing for the entire freighter, but this mysterious fact made his heart feel heavy.
"Since Hexia died first, who killed these pirates?" A mercenary asked suspiciously.
Another mercenary asked hesitantly: "Hexia is the only one guarding here. Could it be that they had internal strife and died together?"
Nakano Shuisheng turned his head and said coldly: "Even if there is internal strife, so many of them are dead, then who threw them overboard?"
The people following Nakano Shuisheng were suddenly speechless, yes, everyone is dead, who will throw them away?
A mercenary seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly changed his expression: "Could it have alarmed the souls of the dead in the sea, they..."
Nakano Shuisheng kicked the mercenary angrily, and cursed: "Bastard, what are you talking about, look here, if the blood on the ground is murdered by the dead, do you need to do it like this? The murderer is naturally a human being!" , and must still be on board now!"
When Nakano Shuisheng said this, there was no surprise in everyone's hearts, but a kind of chill seemed to rise from behind.
"The people on the ship, except ours, don't have any guns and weapons. It's impossible to kill so many heavily armed pirates, right?"
"It is indeed very impossible, but it is no longer possible and impossible now. The facts are already in front of us. Naturally, our people do not have this ability. That is to say, that person is hiding among the crew. Although we don't know why he You have to hide your own strength, but no one can guarantee whether he has other purposes, so we must find out this person!"
The mercenary behind him frowned and said, "There are so many people, how do we check?"
Nakano Shuisheng snorted coldly: "Such a big thing happened just now, everyone came out and gathered together, as long as you check who is absent, that is who it is!"
Nakano Shuisheng had just finished speaking when a clear sound of metal hitting suddenly sounded from behind them. The sound was so close, as if it was stuck behind their backs.
