"Excuse me, Mr. Pitt, can we go to your port to take a look, because Mr. Horton has made some accusations against you, and I want to confirm them." Just when Edie Pitt was about to leave the fishing boat.
, Pargas suddenly made a request.
"Mr. Sheriff, your hand is stretched too far. I suggest you not to go. This is private territory and is not under the leadership of Perth, nor is it your jurisdiction. Moreover, the security of this sea area is not
Very good, pirates often appear, I can't guarantee your personal safety, so let our ship escort you for a while." After hearing Pargas' request, Edie Pitt originally looked like it was engraved on his face.
Smile suddenly stops
See you, two blue-green eyes shining coldly behind the lenses. After saying these words with an obviously threatening tone, he returned to his speedboat without saying a word, and then didn't even say hello.
, and flew away. The remaining two speedboats were still hovering around the fishing boat, one behind and the other on the left. The heavy machine guns on the boats were aimed directly at the fishing boat, and one of the machine gunners also pulled the bolt of the machine gun and fired.
The bullets were pushed into the barrel of the gun.
"Mr. Sheriff, we'd better go. Let alone encounter pirates in this little broken boat, even their speedboats can make us disappear without a trace. This is the sea..."
Old Al had been listening to the conversation between the two parties. Seeing that Pargas had the urge to enter the port by force, he quickly came forward and whispered a few words, and emphasized the last sentence.
"Let's go back to Perth!!!" Pargas' hand tightened and then relaxed on the handle of the gun at his waist. He relaxed and then tightened his grip for dozens of seconds before finally giving the order harshly.
Old Al rushed to the bow of the boat with agility that was not suitable for his age, struggled to shake up the anchor chain, then raised the main sail, and controlled the fishing boat to start turning around and sailing south, while the two speedboats continued unhurriedly.
Follow the left and rear of this small fishing boat, neither far nor near, always about 100 meters away.
Looking at these two speedboats, Pagas's sense of justice, which had been a little fierce just now, immediately cooled down. He served in the Australian Navy for 10 years, and retired only 4 years ago and returned to his hometown in Perth, where he served as the local security officer.
Officer. With his old navy eyes, he can be 100% sure. The pilots on these speedboats must have retired from the navy.
Or it's the Navy. And the posture of those machine gunners and sailors is not ordinary company security. This escort method of one on the left and one on the back is the most commonly used expulsion tactic in the Navy, in order to avoid firing when the gun is fired.
Accidentally damage your own ship. Therefore, when driving away the opponent's ships, naval ships will not use the method of one left and one right.
And why this South Pacific oil and mining company has a South China Sea Federal Navy standard speedboat, and the Asian sailors on the boat, coupled with Holden's previous brief description of the Southern Railway Port, this question can be easily explained. Now Pa
Gass fully believes that in the Southern Railway
Hong Kong is probably controlled by Asian forces as Horton said, and the security director named Edie Pitt must be one of these Asian forces. As for the South Pacific, it is controlled by the mining company.
Whether the higher-ups knew about this, Pargas did not dare to say.
After returning to Perth, Pagas reported his trip to the Southern Railway Port to the mayor, intending to have the mayor come forward to report the matter to the state government. After listening to Pagas's remarks, the mayor of Perth
After the report, he was not surprised or angry as Pargas imagined. He just calmly told Pargas
It was reported that the U.S. Federal Marshals had sent a telegram before Pargas arrived, requesting Horton's extradition to the United States because he was involved in an oil well theft case. The U.S. Federal Court had received charges and there was enough evidence to prosecute him.
, the federal marshals are probably on their way now.
After listening to the mayor's explanation, Pagas immediately felt a strong sense of conspiracy. The people from the South Pacific Petroleum and Mining Company only knew about the existence of Holden yesterday, and the next day, there were actually U.S. federal marshals.
A telegram was sent to request extradition, and the telegram was not sent to the Australian federal government, but accurately sent to the Perth City Government. Could it be said that the U.S. Federal Court has clairvoyance? Did they know in advance that Holden would be arrested here in Perth?
However, there is no evidence for Pagas' suspicion. Because it involves the relationship between countries, the Perth City Government can no longer support it, and even if it wants to, it cannot do so because of the Western Australia government's
The bailiff has taken over Horton's case, which means that, legally speaking, after the state bailiff sends formal procedures, the Perth police no longer have the right to intervene in the matter.
"This is a conspiracy!!! I met a military torpedo boat outside their port. Those sailors are definitely not ordinary sailors. They are all navy. I guarantee it with my personality. We should file a complaint with the state government and ask the state government to
Where to conduct verification?" Pagas knew in his heart that there must be some ulterior purpose here, and the Asian sailors who pointed heavy machine guns at him and the expressions on their faces seemed to have been laughing at him as a Perth city man.
of the Sheriff.
"Forget it, Pagas, you know, you need to have evidence to accuse this company. We can't get anything. That Holden will also be extradited to the United States. What else do we have? I just talked to Melbourne
I got on the phone with my friend and asked about this company, and my congressman friend told me clearly on the phone not to care about this matter, and don’t even ask. Now you understand, those rich people
for fun
The game is not something we should get involved in. Okay, that’s it for now. You’re tired too. Go back and rest. Keep an eye on that Holden. After he’s handed over to the state bailiff tomorrow, it’s none of our business.”
Seeing that Pargas still refused to give up, the mayor walked up to the sheriff, leaned into Pargas's ear, told his true thoughts, and then patted his constable on the back.
He sighed helplessly.
"..." After listening to the mayor's private advice, Pagas felt that his body was really tired. Thinking about those rich people with hands and eyes, and then thinking about his own country that relied on the South Pacific oil mining industry.
The company purchased daily necessities and the brother-in-law's family and his wife, who had just lived a slightly more comfortable life, had to relax their originally straight backs.
In fact, in the past few years, Pagas is not the only one who has doubts about the management methods of this South Pacific oil and mining company. After the huge iron ore reserves were discovered here, many exploration companies around the world have
Exploration teams were sent in an attempt to discover some other mineral veins around the South Pacific Petroleum Mining Company's mining area. However, the exploration teams of these companies either encountered trouble in the procedures for entering Western Australia, or disappeared in the wilderness of Western Australia.
without a trace, west
The Australian police once dispatched many groups of mounted police to the interior of Western Australia to search for these missing exploration team members. However, apart from finding some scattered items, not even a single person or even a body was found. When the state police
After obvious bite marks were found on a kettle of an exploration team member that was lost by a river, it had to be announced that the exploration team had been attacked by a crocodile and was collectively killed. Other exploration teams could only speculate.
It was attacked by an animal.
Since many powerful foreign mining companies have exploration teams missing in the interior of Western Australia, it has also caused great trouble to the Western Australian state government and the Australian federal government. In addition, the Australian federal government is watching the South Pacific Petroleum Mining Industry.
The company had made so much profit from its own minerals and was jealous. So starting in 1923, the Australian government announced an order to no longer issue mining licenses to protect Australia's mining resources. In this way, other mining companies
The company will no longer be able to obtain exploration rights.
However, it is impossible for South Pacific Petroleum and Mining Company to bribe all Australian officials, nor to benefit all Australian political parties, so there will always be people who stand up to discredit the company. They protect state-owned resources, employ labor policies, protect the interests of local people, etc.
Every aspect has raised questions about the South Pacific Petroleum and Mining Company. Every year, Australian politicians who cannot eat meat and are anxious to watch others eat it have put matters related to the South Pacific Petroleum and Mining Company on the federal government's agenda, but every time
