917 How much do I need to help you?
Although Uncle Chalmer and the others couldn't detect it, Ye Chen saw it with his Blood Wheel Eye. These guys all had guns on their bodies, and two of them had several grenades on their waists. These guys were not good people.
Uncle Chalmer took them to a few shacks in the north to check. Two outsiders who came here the day before yesterday also lived here.
After a few guys checked, they found that they were not the people they were looking for, so they did not attack them.
However, after checking that side, these five people still found something was wrong. There seemed to be a few shacks on the north side and they wanted to go check them.
Uncle Chalmer was immediately a little nervous. When Ye Chen came to the island before, he only greeted him and avoided all other people on the island, so now he is the only one who knows that Ye Chen lives in the north.
In a shack.
It's relatively late now. If these five guys passed by, they would naturally be able to find him.
He was a little embarrassed, thinking about whether to kill these five guys.
However, at this time, there were several bird calls coming from the island, and the five guys immediately became alert and looked around. One of them got angry and lifted Chalmer's collar, presumably to question him.
Ye Chen immediately became alert, took out a sniper rifle from his backpack, and installed a night vision device and an infrared sight on it.
If necessary, I will kill these five people. I cannot let the residents of the island lose their lives for me.
However, he could see from the scope that Chalmer and a dozen other people were surrounding him, and Chalmer was still explaining to them. Ye Chen could see the shape of his mouth, and could probably guess what he was talking about.
The general meaning is that this island is just called an island and has nothing to do with them.
They won't take in any criminals, and even if they do, they will report them to the government.
Although the five people were facing more than a dozen young adults on the island, they didn't pay any attention to them. Four of them immediately searched around and soon arrived outside several shacks in the north.
They all took out their guns and checked here, but they didn't find anything. They didn't find the person they were looking for.
Seeing that they all took out their guns, the natives on the island became nervous. They retreated to the side in panic and gathered next to Uncle Chalmer. They all looked at Chalmer in a panic, because Chalmer was
Their backbone, because the other party has a gun.
Chalmer told everyone not to be nervous. He seemed to have expected this day for a long time because Ye Chen's background was really abnormal.
He hadn't thought about it that much before, but then he thought about it carefully after he came back. Ye Chen couldn't possibly be an oil well worker on Sequoia Island. If so, why would he take a canoe there?
And who would carry seventy or eighty kilograms of equipment at a time? It is very unnatural for a person to carry such a big bag and swim several kilometers from the sea.
It's just that he thinks Ye Chen is a friend worth making. Although he is not one of their black people, just a yellow man, he feels very reliable and he doesn't want to betray him.
Seeing five people rummaging around for Ye Chen, there seemed to be no harvest, as Ye Chen was no longer there. He must have discovered it before and left there temporarily, and Chalmer secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The five people rummaged through several shacks several times, but found no trace of anyone having recently stayed here. Only then did they believe what Chalmer said, that it might just be the birds chirping on the island.
After all, this kind of place is a remote, ghostly place. Although the forest is shallow, there will definitely be birds living here, and there are always some birds like owls that will hoot at night.
In fact, the bird chirping just now was the code for the connection between Ye Chen and Chalmer, so when Chalmer heard the bird chirp just now, he was already mostly relieved.
This meant that Ye Chen was in the dark and had long since discovered that these people had landed on the shore. He had already hidden them, so he was notified.
The five people did not stay here for long. They warned Chalmer and asked them to notify them immediately if they found anything, and then drove away by boat.
…
Half an hour later, peace returned to Guli Island.
Although some residents on the island were still in shock, those people finally left successfully.
At half past eleven in the evening, Chalmer came to the shack where Ye Chen had stayed before, and Ye Chen had already returned here.
"I was really scared to death just now, brother, are you okay?" Chalmer asked Ye Chen nervously.
He also brought a bowl of hot fish soup to Ye Chen. Ye Chen took the fish soup and drank it in one gulp. He asked Chalmer: "What did those people say to you?"
"They just said they were looking for some fugitive..."
Chalmer quickly said: "Brother, don't get me wrong. I believe you are definitely not a fugitive. These guys don't look like our country's guards at first glance, and they are definitely not good people."
There is no police in any empire. This small country consisting of hundreds of islands only has the guards belonging to their king.
And the number is not large, probably only a few thousand. This is the strongest defense force in the entire country. These guards usually manage the country's security and handle some criminal cases.
It is because of this that several oil wells in the waters around the empire are controlled by others. Some large foreign fishing boats come here from time to time to steal fish, but their country is powerless.
"fine……"
Ye Chen smiled and said to Uncle Chalmer: "Uncle Chalmer, I think it's not safe for you to live here. Why haven't you thought about taking everyone to live somewhere else?"
"Hey, it can't be that easy. Besides, we have lived here for decades and already have feelings for this place."
Seeing that Ye Chen changed the subject, Chalmer didn't ask any more questions. Originally, there was nothing he could do about this kind of thing. If Ye Chen was really discovered today, and the five of them had guns, he wouldn't be able to take the residents of the island with them.
, their partners went to fight each other desperately.
The reason why I wanted to kill five people before was because these five people seemed to have no weapons. If they had guns, the situation would be completely different. It was impossible for me to gamble with the lives of residents to save a stranger like Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled and said: "That's true. A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse, but you have to find ways to improve your quality of life. Is there no other place to make money?"
"There is nothing easy to make money on the island." Chalmer said with a wry smile, "The only thing is to sell fish and some coconuts, but it is very troublesome to transport them out. The fish are now poached by fishing boats outside, so we
It would be great if you can catch fish that you can eat, let alone sell."
"Because we don't have our own boat, it's really difficult to build our home, so we've been saving money to get a boat of our own," Chalmer said.
