Chapter 1115: Seeking help

~11 min read 2,071 words

As the sun hung high in the sky, the pier changed from noisy to quiet, and their group of people also became a landscape on the pier.

The natives here also pointed at them, because they all stayed on the deck, every boat was crowded with many people, and then these boats didn't go to sea, just stopped at the pier, and the language they spoke was incomprehensible.

The most important thing was that a small half of them were bald, and no one dared to come up to ask them, wishing they could stay far away, no one dared to approach them.

Everyone pointing and pointing was not a thing, some people simply took off their vests, directly blocked their big foreheads, and saved the sun from stinging.

Ye Yaodong sat in the cockpit, looked down from a high place, kept waiting for the time, until 8 o'clock he went down to the deck, and a pile of people immediately sat up.

"Adong, is it time..."

"Should we go to contact?"

"We go together..."

"Right, everyone go together..."

Ye Yaodong frowned, "Go like this, people will think we are going to rob the bank, rob the shop, all stay here, one or two people accompany is enough, don't need to go like that."

"Going is useless, just a phone call, don't need that, or do you have a way to go to call to contact?"

"We don't have any way, don't we have to count on you?"

"Then no need to go, wait here first." After saying that, he climbed down the boat himself, went to the shore first.

His two brothers immediately followed to the shore, "We go with you..."

"Dongzi, I go with you too..."

"I go together too..."

Ye Yaodong turned his head to look at the pile of people who got off the boat behind him, his head was big, shouted a sentence, "Then you go, I won't go, things are all entrusted to you."

Everyone stopped their steps.

"Then fine... then we wait here first."

Ye Yaodong glanced at the group of people, turned and left first, and the few people named behind also hurriedly followed.

Everyone didn't speak, and didn't have time to appreciate the local streets, just silently followed behind, looking for where to call.

The nose is below the mouth, Ye Yaodong looked around, and then pulled a local to ask, the local pointed him to the direction of the supply and marketing cooperative. They found it easily by following the road.

Fortunately, the towns in this era were very small, not developed, and there was only one supply and marketing cooperative in a town, which was easy to find by asking.

Ye Yaodong asked the counter lady, and after being able to call, he dialed the number he had long remembered.

He brought a phone book, and had long turned to the page number before coming out, and had also memorized it once, there wouldn't be any mistakes, just didn't know if this office number could still get through.

Such a big boss transfer must be a common occurrence, if transferred, this number would naturally pass the validity period, now it's good to use this favor, to avoid waiting for people to transfer, then it would sink into the sea.

His thoughts were turning, listening to the beep-beep sound on the phone, he also counted silently, if it rang six times without connecting, then he could only hang up.

People beside him also looked at him, and didn't dare to make a sound to disturb.

The phone kept ringing, until the 4th ring, it was answered.

Listening to a familiar voice, hello, where?

Ye Yaodong's expression relaxed, his face also had a smile, hurriedly reported his family name, and then said he had a very serious matter to request his help, asked if he could talk face to face.

"Is it about yesterday's gunfight?"

He was startled, and hurriedly responded, "Yes, but it has nothing to do with us, it was another group of people who had a gunfight with the locals..."

Ye Yaodong hurriedly told the cause and result of the incident from beginning to end...

They all pricked up their ears to listen, and stood on the side and stretched their heads to stick to the phone.

Before long, Ye Yaodong hung up the phone.

"Dongzi, you saved a big official last year, we thought you were calling Yang Guoan, wanting to find a way."

"He is just a small public security officer, what's the use in such a big matter? People are not related to us, why should they help us with such a big favor? Go, go to the sea police bureau, people let us go to the sea police bureau to explain the process of the matter, afraid that it won't be clear on the phone."

"Good, good, we go now."

Ye Yaodong settled the account and asked the counter lady how to go to the sea police bureau. People looked at them strangely for a while, and then reluctantly pointed the way.

6 people under the super big sun, just walked to the supply and marketing cooperative sweating, now have to find the sea police bureau under the scorching sun.

Before long, they saw red flags and various flags erected not far away, and walked directly toward that direction.

Probably explained to the gatekeeper, they reported their names, said who they were looking for, and were released, and then were led to the office door.

Zeng Weimin, whom he saved, also immediately smiled and walked to the door to greet them, taking the initiative to shake hands with them. 【11

After roughly explaining to the guard, they gave their names and said who they were looking for, and were let in, then led to the office door.

Zeng Weimin, whom they had once saved, immediately walked to the door with a smile to greet them and took the initiative to shake their hands.

"I haven't seen you in a year. I knew that since you were bold enough to come here to salvage jellyfish last year, you would probably come again this year."

Ye Yaodong smiled and sighed, "So, as soon as the leader learned about the incident in the neighboring town, you thought of us immediately."

He reined in the smile on his face, "Yes, sit down and let's talk. A few minutes before you called, I had just received the notification, but I don't know the details very well. Even from the few words I heard, I know the nature of this incident is too egregious."

Ye Yaodong hurriedly explained the cause, process, and result of the incident again, rushing to distance his group from it.

"So, there were actually three parties involved?"

"Yes, those two parties clashed and fought quite fiercely, continuing from the sea to the shore. We didn't provoke them from start to finish; we left early as soon as we realized something was wrong at sea."

"We were also worried that after so many were arrested, it would spill over to us, so we planned to leave directly. Who knew the locals would see us and block our way? At the time, we didn't fight back; we were only focused on leaving. It was just that some of the crowd went to the Gongan Bureau, and then those of us who couldn't run fast enough were caught and detained..."

"You've said so much, and I have a rough understanding of the situation, but I still have to verify it. If you hadn't called earlier, it would have been a week before their report was submitted. I'll make a phone call to ask about the situation first so I can better resolve this matter."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you. Is it now? Or should we go back and wait for news first?" Ye Yaodong looked at him with full hope.

Having not seen him for a year, the man in the official uniform looked even more authoritative. His stern expression was enough to make ordinary folks nod and bow involuntarily while speaking.

Take his older brother and second brother, for example; standing to the side listening to the leader speak, they kept nodding, their bodies unconsciously hunched over.

"You go back first. I need to understand this matter from beginning to end, sort it out, and then discuss it. This matter is quite big; I haven't heard of any place in the country having such a large-scale gunfight. As of today, the report says over a dozen people are dead and dozens are injured. We have to hold a meeting to discuss it."

"The circumstances are too egregious; it's not a small matter. It's not just a case of releasing people because those of you who were caught later weren't heavily involved. In the end, this matter is connected; everyone is implicated. There is a cause for every effect."

"The group involved in the earlier gunfight is of a more egregious nature. To resolve this, we need a plan, not just a casual word to let everyone out."

"This matter will definitely attract high-level attention. We will definitely be implicated and criticized by our superiors. We need a solution for the whole thing, which also needs to be reported. We cannot just release people before a plan is in place."

"Moreover, the number of people involved on your side is a bit high. We need to come up with a protocol first, so wait patiently. If the sequence of events is as you described, I will try my best to help. Now, give us time to understand and hold a meeting to discuss it."

Ye Yaodong nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I understand. We'll go back first and wait patiently for your notification."

He stood up as he spoke, but asked with some hesitation: "It's just... how many days will this take... My father has no news, and in all likelihood, he was also caught. As a son, I'm worried about my father, and I don't have a way to contact anyone right now..."

"Come back in three days. Leave your father's name, and I'll have someone ask. By then, regardless of whether the matter is resolved, I'll let you know if your father is among them."

"Okay, okay, that's fine."

Having an accurate time is good; the fear was that it would just disappear into thin air and be brushed off.

However, the grace of saving a life is greater than heaven; one believes that most people won't be ungrateful, and within their duties, they should be able to put in some effort.

Their group was sent out politely, and only when they reached the entrance did they dare to speak.

Ye Yaohua: "Phew... I didn't even dare to make a sound..."

Ye Yaopeng: "Me too... Good thing we didn't need to speak."

Azheng scratched his head, "So, did he agree or not? Are we coming back in three days to ask for the answer?"

Ye Yaodong: "People need to sort out the situation first, discuss how to resolve it, and once a plan is out, they can try to act. The heavy offenders will definitely be heavily punished; for the light ones, we are now counting on them to be lenient."

Ye Yaopeng: "But our case isn't exactly light, and it has nothing to do with us at all..."

Ye Yaodong said irritably: "You can get three years just for watching the fun; do you think it has nothing to do with us?"

Ye Yaopeng: "Really?"

"These past few years have been a strict crackdown on illegal and criminal activities. Do you think that given how egregious the circumstances were yesterday, those caught will be heavily or lightly punished? Can the relevant personnel be safely released? We are connected in a roundabout way; we weren't just bystanders."

Ye Yaohua: "Then... then if it's really sentenced, everyone will actually have to go to jail..."

Ye Yaodong: "It's already a major incident. Without anyone helping, it's definitely going to be a prison sentence. Now we're just counting on them to see if they can be lenient, considering we didn't participate and were just caught in the crossfire, and then release the people."

Xiao Xiao: "Then we have to come back in three days, what do we do these few days?"

Ye Yaodong: "Let's go back to the pier first."
