Chapter 1289 Wang Desheng Seeks Help
"Hello? Who is it?"
Fu Wan picked up the mobile phone and asked in confusion. She couldn't help but wonder, Fu Liang and the others hadn't returned from the sea last night. Could it be that Sun Youjin had called to ask about the fish?
"What Boss Sun? Comrade Xiao Fu, it's me, Wang Desheng from the camp!"
Wang Desheng?
Fu Wan immediately realized what was happening.
"Deputy Commander Wang?"
"Yes, it's me. I called to ask if you've gone out to sea yet?"
Fu Wan sensed the anxiety in Wang Desheng's tone and quickly replied, "No, we have guests at home these past two days, and I'm entertaining them!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Desheng on the other end of the phone visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness we didn't go out to sea. Comrade Xiao Fu, time is tight and the task is heavy. I don't have time to explain in detail over the phone. I need your help. Could you come out for a bit?"
"Come out, where are you going?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan frowned instantly. She had only met Wang Desheng twice, but for Wang Desheng to speak up, it must be something important.
"Go out to sea to find something."
After she finished speaking, someone shouted something on the other end of the phone. Fu Wan, with her sharp ears, even heard the name Sakata Taro.
Could it be that they're looking for something belonging to Taro Sakata?
Thinking of this, Fu Wan immediately perked up.
“Deputy Commander Wang, I can go out to help, but the problem is how I can get there and meet up with you.”
Should I drive to the campsite, or take a boat out to sea?
Although Chen Balang, Dong Haiyang, and Fu Liang had all taken out their three boats to trawle, the "Riding the Waves" boat remained at the dock, and the speedboat that had arrived a couple of days ago was also moored there.
Upon hearing this, Wang Desheng hurriedly said, "No need to come to the camp. I'll have a boat come to the dock to pick you up now."
He paused, then added, "A boat will arrive at your dock from the camp in half an hour. Just wait there."
After saying this, Wang Desheng hurriedly hung up the phone. Fu Wan also put away her mobile phone, then said something to Ye Xiaocui and quickly went back to her residence to change her clothes.
Wang Desheng came to her because he definitely needed to go into the water, but she didn't know what he was looking for.
After changing her clothes, Fu Wan put on a coat over them. Unless you looked closely, you couldn't tell that Fu Wan was wearing the mermaid outfit she was going to wear in the water.
Unfortunately, Ye Xiaocui had sharp eyes and recognized her as soon as Fu Wan changed her clothes and went over.
"Ah Wan, why are you wearing a mermaid outfit so late at night?"
Fu Wan didn't intend to hide it from her.
"They asked me to go help out at the camp. Mom, you guys eat dinner first, don't wait for me!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Ming, who had just returned from the aquaculture area, hurriedly asked:
"What can I do for you? Do you want me to come with you?"
Fu Wan shook her head, "No need, I can handle it."
"Oh dear, it's almost dinnertime, why are you still going out?"
Ye Xiaocui grumbled a couple of times, then stuffed two freshly baked scallion pancakes into Fu Wan's hands.
"Then you should have something to eat first. Who knows what time it will be before you get back."
That's right. Fu Wan finished the two scallion pancakes in a few bites, then looked at the time. It should be about time.
"Father, Mother, I'll be going now."
Fu Laoda was chopping wood in the back when he heard this, so he hurriedly ran out from the backyard.
"Wait, I'll take you to the dock."
The father and daughter waited at the dock for about five or six minutes before the camp's boat arrived.
As usual, Boss Fu went up to offer cigarettes, but the comrades in the camp were disciplined and wouldn't accept them.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, we need to set off quickly, Commander Wang and the others are waiting for us!"
Fu Wan responded and waved to Boss Fu.
As dusk approached, Fu Wan encountered many fishermen engaged in trawling operations along the way.
The boat had been sailing for almost two hours when, in the distance, Fu Wan saw a light.
Her intuition told her that the place with the light must be where Wang Desheng and the others were.
Sure enough, their boat slowed down soon after. Wang Desheng, standing at the bow, immediately raised his hand to signal when he saw Fu Wan on the deck.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, over here!"
"Commander Wang, what exactly happened?"
Upon meeting, Fu Wan couldn't wait to ask, and Wang Desheng sighed and gestured for Fu Wan to look behind him.
Upon seeing this, Fu Wan's eyes widened in surprise.
Taro Sakata!
Sakata Taro is still bound hand and foot!
There were several other people next to him, presumably his accomplices, whose hands were also tied.
When Fu Wan looked over, Sakata Taro smiled maliciously, a smile that made Fu Wan clench her fists.
As they were looking around, a man in a green uniform walked out from the direction of the cockpit.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, you've finally arrived!"
"Captain Jiang? What are you doing here?"
Fu Wan was completely bewildered. How did this matter involve the police again?
Wang Desheng noticed Fu Wan's confusion and, after thinking for a moment, said, "Comrade Fu, time is of the essence, so I'll get straight to the point."
When Captain Jiang took Xu Zhenbang back for questioning, he discovered that Xu was addicted to drugs. Following the trail, he found that Sakata Taro was trafficking and producing drugs within China. Knowing that Xu Zhenbang had been arrested and that he would be exposed sooner or later, the guy wanted to leave China by boat this afternoon.
We were notified to cooperate with the police in apprehending him, but the guy threw his incriminating evidence into the sea.
We and the police officers who could swim went down to search, but we couldn't find it. Plus, it was already night, so I had no choice but to report to Commander Sun.
Commander Sun asked me to invite you, which is why I called you..."
Having said all that, Fu Wan roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter.
"So, Sakata threw the drugs into the sea?"
Wang Desheng nodded, "It should be more than that. This guy lost a leather suitcase that was about 18 inches in size, and he did it right in front of us."
At this point, Wang Desheng's face showed a hint of anger. "Damn it, if things weren't still unclear and the police had to take him to court for trial, I would have shot him dead!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan glanced at Sakata. No wonder he had such a malicious look on his face when he looked at her earlier. He probably thought that she would be like everyone else and wouldn't be able to find the leather suitcase he threw into the sea!
Unfortunately, his wish was destined to be in vain.
"Commander Wang, can you confirm where he left the leather suitcase?"
Wang Desheng hurriedly pointed to his feet, "It's this area of the sea. I saw him throw it in with my own eyes."
As he spoke, he showed the nautical chart in his hand to Fu Wan.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, according to the nautical chart, the depth of this sea area is at least sixty or seventy meters, and the deepest part may exceed this depth."
We even contacted professional divers from the Municipal Fisheries Administration Bureau, but those divers experienced adverse reactions when they descended to a depth of over 40 meters and didn't catch anything. That's why my supervisor asked me to call you.
