Chapter 1766 Integrate into the environment
"It seems we have to hurry up." Qin Yuan whispered to Chu Liang, "Everything is becoming more and more complicated, and there are more and more forces involved. If we do not intervene in time, we may be completely excluded."
Chu Liang nodded with a serious look: "We must have enough information and find a breakthrough point in the next two days. Otherwise, when the real transaction begins, we will have to passively deal with it."
Qin Yuan added softly: "The situation tonight has become unneglectable. Tomorrow's actions must be accurate to every detail. We have to find out the movements of every key person on the cruise ship and ensure that our plans are not destroyed."
At this time, the topic of Liu Bo and several men continued. Qin Yuan knew that these people were one of the core participants in the next banquet, and Liu Bo might also be one of the key clues.
"We can't wait for the last chance." Qin Yuan whispered, "Tonight, we must be more cautious and find a breakthrough point as soon as possible to ensure that the next action can be carried out smoothly."
Late at night, the lights on the cruise ship gradually went out, the quiet sea surface reflected the starlight, and the air was filled with a slight salty smell, as if indicating a certain uneasy atmosphere. Qin Yuan, Chu Liang and Yue Ming stood on the other side of the cruise ship, as the hull swayed slightly, the few people whispered, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn.
"We must be fully prepared tonight, tomorrow is the key." Qin Yuan whispered, staring at the port gradually moving away from the distance. "We know limited information, but tomorrow's actions must be accurate."
Chu Liang frowned slightly, as if thinking about something: "What kind of character do you think Liu Bo will be? Tonight, he obviously gave us a chance to test, but we did not reveal our identity."
Yue Ming stood aside, his eyes alert: "Liu Bo's attitude is very calm, and he may have deeper plans behind him. Tonight's conversation suggests a lot, but we have to find out the truth."
Qin Yuan nodded: "No matter whether Liu Bo is the key figure behind it or not, we have to find more clues on this cruise ship. We can be sure that the banquet is just the beginning, and the next action is the real test."
"In the next two days, time will not wait for anyone." Chu Liang said, looking up at the distance of the deck, "We must find the satellite phone in the captain's room and make sure we can contact the outside world at critical moments. We must prepare tonight, and tomorrow's opportunity should not be missed."
"Tomorrow we have the opportunity to contact the captain's room." Qin Yuan's voice became even deeper, "If we don't prepare the plan tonight, tomorrow's action will be very difficult."
The three of them said nothing, and the atmosphere became more and more serious.
The next day, the early morning sun shone into the cabin through the side of the ship, and the warm light formed a sharp contrast with the gloom of last night. Qin Yuan, Chu Liang and others got up early, and after thinking for a night, they decided to take more hidden actions.
In the lobby of the cruise ship, some guests have begun to gather to participate in relaxing morning activities. Although the banquet is held at night, there are still many senior staff members on the ship during the day. Qin Yuan and the team members are wearing casual clothes, trying to keep similar to others, and integrate into this seemingly ordinary atmosphere.
"We must find an opportunity to approach the captain's room." Qin Yuan whispered, "The captain's room has very strict safety protection, but I believe there will definitely be a chance to break through tonight."
"We can first find clues from other crew members." Yue Ming said softly, "Many crew members on the cruise ship contacted guests, and we can learn some valuable information through them."
Chu Liang's eyes were sharp: "The crew on the cruise ship is not ordinary staff, their background may be more complicated. Tonight, once we determine the route to the captain's room, we can start the action."
The three of them quietly separated and began to explore each other. Qin Yuan walked towards the restaurant on one side and pretended to chat with several crew members inadvertently. Through clever communication, he learned that the captain's room did have strict security measures, but there was a loophole - the crew members were on duty on shifts, and there was only a short gap every day.
"Tonight should be the best time." Qin Yuan silently recorded this information, and then began to find the right time to meet Chu Liang and Yue Ming.
In the afternoon, most of the guests on the cruise ship chose to relax on the deck. Qin Yuan and the team members took the opportunity to meet again and quickly exchanged their respective intelligence. After some discussion, they decided to start the action tonight and sneak into the captain's room while the crew was handing over.
"We must have control and must complete the task silently." Qin Yuan took a deep breath, his tone firm, "There is no room for fault tolerance in the action tonight."
"Okay." Chu Liang and Yue Ming nodded, as if they were mentally prepared.
When night fell, the cruise ship was lit up again, and the bright light intertwined with the starry sky. Qin Yuan and his team members took advantage of the lively banquet to quietly leave the crowd and approach the captain's room. The crew members and security guards around seemed not to notice their whereabouts. The information Qin Yuan got from the crew was indeed accurate, and the guards in the captain's room were relatively relaxed, which was a good time to sneak in.
The three of them quickly and in an orderly manner, passed through several doors, and finally arrived at the area where the captain's room was located. The two crew members were standing outside the door and talking, not nervous. Qin Yuan whispered to the team members to stop and wait patiently for the opportunity.
A few minutes later, the two crew members walked away, and the three quickly walked through the corridor and quietly approached the door of the captain's room. Qin Yuan whispered: "We can only find the final breakthrough here and try not to disturb them."
He quickly took out a forged crew card and gently inserted it into the card slot at the door. The door opened in response. The three of them quietly entered the captain's room. The lights in the room were soft and there was a telephone on the table in the center. The satellite phone was lying quietly on the table, looking so conspicuous.
"Target confirmation." Qin Yuan whispered.
However, just as they were about to approach the phone, a sudden burst of footsteps came from outside the captain's door. Qin Yuan realized instantly that things had become bad. He immediately signaled the team members to stop, quickly hid in a corner of the room, and hid behind the bookshelf.
The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer. A few seconds later, the door was pushed open and the captain walked in. He obviously didn't notice anything unusual, so he walked straight to the table and started operating the computer. Qin Yuan held his breath, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
A minute passed, and the captain continued to focus on his work, seemingly unaware. The tension in Qin Yuan's heart gradually dissipated, and several people slowly approached the table.
Just as the captain turned around and was about to leave, Qin Yuan reached out and grabbed the satellite phone and quickly opened the contact information of the outside world. "This is the only opportunity, I can't wait any longer." Qin Yuan whispered to himself, quickly contacted the outside world, and successfully sent a message for help.
However, the moment he put the phone back on the table, the footsteps outside the door rang again. This time, Qin Yuan and the team members did not stop anymore, but quickly evacuated. All the movements were as fast as lightning, and few people left almost no trace.
After leaving the captain's room, Qin Yuan lowered his head and gasped, and his heartbeat gradually returned to normal: "It was successful, but we must seize the time. The situation will be more complicated."
Chu Liang nodded, his eyes calmed down: "The message has been sent, and everything that follows can only be waited." He took a deep breath, "But we can't stop, we must not reveal flaws tonight."
They returned along the same path and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Qin Yuan, Chu Liang and Yue Ming walked out of the captain's room, their heartbeat slowed down slightly, but their vigilance still did not relax. The crew around seemed to have not noticed their actions, and the corridors of the cruise ship were still quiet, with only occasional footsteps echoing in the empty space. Although they had just successfully completed their goal - sending a request for help to the outside world through satellite phones, this did not mean that the danger would be lifted.
"We have to find a place to hide until we receive a response." Qin Yuan whispered, his eyes sweeping around with alertness.
Chu Liang nodded and quickly led them to a remote corridor. It was a place separated from the main passage, and few crew members usually passed by. Several people entered a storage room with their hands and feet, and the door was gently closed. The air was filled with the smell of paint and wood, which looked a little old.
"We can't take it lightly." Qin Yuan's voice was very low, but his tone was extremely firm. "After receiving the response, we have to take the next step as soon as possible."
Yue Ming leaned against the wall with a serious look: "If we could contact the outside world in time, we might be able to reverse the situation, but if the ship responded too quickly, we might be trapped."
"We can only wait now." Chu Liang whispered, "We must wait until the outside world reacts before we decide what to do next."
The three of them remained alert and dared not relax. The sound outside the storage room did not seem to cause any abnormality. The occasional pace came from outside the door, but it had nothing to do with them. Time passed by minute by minute, and the atmosphere became more and more depressing, as if every second was waiting for a turning point.
After about fifteen minutes of touching, Qin Yuan's cell phone vibrated. He quickly took out his cell phone and checked the message displayed. It was a response from the outside world: "The signal has been received, and the support team is on the way. But please keep a low profile. The enemy may have noticed an abnormality and need to be prepared to evacuate at any time."
Qin Yuan quickly glanced at the news and breathed a sigh of relief: "The support from the outside world has been confirmed and the team is coming." He said, "But we cannot take it lightly. The enemy may have discovered our actions, and the situation in the future may be more complicated."
Chu Liang frowned slightly: "If the enemy really notices an abnormality, our chances may be lost instantly. Tonight, we have to be more careful."
Yue Ming's eyes were sharp: "Can we find more breakthroughs? Through more information collection, can we predict the enemy's movements in advance?"
"Tonight, our goal is to avoid direct contact with the enemy and try to keep a low profile." Qin Yuan whispered, "In the next few hours, we will have to hide our whereabouts and observe the enemy's reactions. Only if we can find more useful clues can we dare to make the next decision."
They discussed softly, ensuring that their actions did not attract any unnecessary attention. Suddenly, a sound of footsteps came from outside the door, which made the three of them immediately remained highly vigilant. Qin Yuan signaled the team members to keep quiet and his eyes were locked at the door of the storage room.
As the footsteps drifted away, Qin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief: "We have to take advantage of this opportunity to go to other places to find out the situation. Tonight, we need more information."
They quietly left the storage room and moved along the inconspicuous path to another area. The internal structure of the cruise ship was intricate, and Qin Yuan remained highly alert. They walked through a long corridor and entered the cruise ship's restaurant area. The decoration was luxuriously decorated and the lighting was soft, and several crew members were tidying up the dining tables to prepare for the second round of banquets.
"We can't attract their attention." Qin Yuan whispered, "We need more clues to know what to do next."
They kept a proper distance from the crew around them and glanced at the surrounding environment alertly. At the other end of the restaurant, Qin Yuan noticed a middle-aged man in a suit. He was whispering to a man in plain clothes, with a solemn expression. Qin Yuan's eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly approached, trying his best to integrate himself into the environment.
The conversation between the middle-aged man and the plainclothes man attracted Qin Yuan's attention. They didn't say much, but Qin Yuan could feel a subtle sense of tension from their expressions and tone. The man's voice was low and full of oppression: "What's the situation? Have they noticed an abnormality?"
The plainclothes man nodded slightly and replied in a low voice: "We have sent someone to investigate. It seems that someone is trying to send a signal to the outside world through a satellite phone. But we have no direct evidence yet to determine their whereabouts."
The middle-aged man smiled coldly: "Do they think they can escape our surveillance? This little trick is not worth mentioning."
Qin Yuan was secretly nervous, but his face remained calm. He quickly analyzed the situation in front of him: they did find an abnormality, and it seemed that the enemy's reaction had begun to become strong. It seemed that the next action must be accelerated and we can't wait any longer.
"It looks like they have started to move." Qin Yuan whispered to Chu Liang, "If we do not take further action, the situation may be out of control."
Chu Liang nodded, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Now that we know the enemy's reaction, the next plan should be quick and decisive. If the action tonight does not succeed, we may be in trouble."
Yue Ming's eyes were firm: "Since the enemy has started to fight back, we can't continue to stay here. We must find a breakthrough and seize any possible opportunities."
