Seeing the pickup truck getting closer and closer, Qin Fei raised his head in the direction it was coming from and asked Kuncai: "Is that your cousin?"
Kunchai used his palms to build a tent above his eyebrows, squinted his eyes for a long time, and said with confusion on his face: "It seems... it seems..."
Didn't say yes, didn't say no.
"Can't you recognize your cousin?" Qin Fei asked curiously, "Is he your relative?"
Kunchai said with certainty: "Of course it is! It's just that after my sister married Chaiba, he felt that one day he would lose his head if he followed my sister, so he ran away. It has been more than ten years now, not to mention that he has been
No contact…”
Qin Fei suddenly felt like he had fallen into a trap. Kun guessed that this guy's smooth talk was not reliable at all. He had heard about this cousin from him before, and it seemed that he had a close relationship. He didn't expect that he hadn't seen him for more than ten years.
.
He suddenly had an uneasy feeling. Kunchai always took things one step at a time, and he would do whatever he wanted when things were urgent. I was afraid that this escape trip to Sierra Leone was just an idea he decided on the spur of the moment.
Instead, the Toyota pickup truck drove up to the two of them and stopped.
Qin Fei subconsciously touched the gun in his waist. This has become a natural habit. In any strange place where he is not sure whether it is safe or not, Qin Fei's hand will always touch the place where there is a weapon on his body, like a vigilant bird.
leopard.
Hua T-shirt opened the car door, got out of the car, took off the sunglasses on his eyes, took off his hat, revealing his natural curly hair dyed shit yellow, opened his arms, and strode towards Kunchai in a very foreign style.
come over.
"Cousin Kunchai!"
This guy is much taller than Kunchai and about the same height as Qin Fei.
He is Kunchai's cousin, that is, Kunchai's mother's relative. Kunchai's mother is a native of D country. Tall people are really rare there, and they are considered a rare breed.
Looking at this guy wearing a floral T-shirt with yellow hair, Qin Fei seemed to have suddenly discovered the red sorghum that stood out among the chickens in a low leek field.
Huang Mao walked up to Kunchai and gave Kunchai a bear hug before the latter had time to react and was still confused.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still the same!"
In front of Huang Mao, Kunchai, who was slightly short, was like a large rag doll, being hugged so hard that he couldn't breathe.
As soon as the other party spoke, even if they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Kunchai would still be able to recognize his form.
"Cousin Songchai..."
Kunchai probably couldn't stand his cousin's unusual enthusiasm, so he quickly found an excuse to break away and said, "I'll introduce you to my friend."
He pointed at Qin Fei and said: "My good friend, Qin Fei, is from Z country."
"From country Z?" Somchai said in blunt Chinese: "Ah, we are fellow countrymen... My name is Somchai, and I am his cousin."
As he said that, he pointed at Kuncai.
Kunchai stood aside with an awkward expression. You know, it is true that he is half Chinese, but Songchai...
Although this guy is his cousin, he is an out-and-out D countryman.
Qin Fei smiled at him, reached out and shook his hand, "Hello."
Songchai shook hands with Qin Fei and quickly turned his attention back to his cousin: "You said on the phone before that you wanted to come over and invest?"
"Yes, I want to find something to do here to stabilize myself," Kunchai said.
Songchai frowned and said in disbelief: "You siblings are doing so well in country D, how come you are interested in my small business here?"
When Zhang Lan was mentioned, Kunchai's expression immediately darkened and he whispered: "My sister... is dead."
Somchai was stunned at first. Obviously he didn't expect Zhang Lan to be dead. He didn't mention it to him on the phone before. He only said that he wanted to come to Africa and look for any business that could be done and invest in it.
.
Songchai originally thought that the two siblings had fallen out again, and Kunchai just came here to relax in a moment of enthusiasm. The so-called business was just a cover.
Kunchai is still crying and shouting that he wants to go back to country D?
Now that he heard that Zhang Lan was dead, Songchai was stunned and didn't know what to say.
"Um..." He hesitated and asked, "What happened to your sister?"
"It was the same thing about drug trafficking, and she was killed." Kunchai said with a bit of tears: "Now his men want her territory and are chasing me everywhere. Even my uncle betrayed me. I have no place."
I went there, and then I thought of you."
After listening to Kunchai's cry, Songchai didn't say anything for a long time, and finally said: "Look, I told you earlier, how can you two siblings end up well in that kind of business? I was right, right? Your dad
We also died for these stupid things back then, and your brother and sister haven't learned their lesson yet and jumped here headlong. Isn't this looking for death?"
After falling behind in counting, Somchai suddenly felt that it was a bit too much to scold his cousin at this time, so he patted his chest to comfort Kunchai: "Don't worry, I'm here! You will follow me from now on, and I will have something to eat."
, your share is indispensable."
He was talking generously, and suddenly the conversation changed: "How much money did you bring to invest this time?"
"Cousin, are you short of money?" Kunchai saw Songchai's anxious look and couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say on the phone that you had secured a diamond mine?"
From Kunchai's point of view, diamond mines are very profitable, and every carat of those things is worth a lot of money. Somchai has been in Africa for more than ten years, so he should be prosperous no matter what.
"Ahem -" Songchai was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand in frustration: "I made money in the early years, but then when the war started, everything was robbed. Didn't I just find another mine, but I just wanted to buy some before the shortcomings.
Modern machinery...and..."
"what else?"
"There is also the wages of those workers... I still owe some..." Songchai waved his hand again, "But don't be afraid, it's just a very small amount. As long as I dig a diamond, it will be enough to pay.
!”
"I only have 12,000 U.S. dollars, that's all I have left." Kunchai said, "I originally had more than 30,000 U.S. dollars, but that's all I have left for various expenses on the road."
"That's all?" Songchai couldn't hide his disappointment, but he immediately changed his tone, "Okay, let's go to my mine first and live there. You can't go back anyway, so just stay here.
, I still have no manpower in my mine, so just help me keep an eye on those niggas, you don’t know, they are lazy and slippery, no one is keeping an eye on them, even if they dig up diamonds, they will stuff them into their pockets and steal them away!
"
While humming, he took Qin Fei and Kunchai back to the car.
After restarting the car, Somchai turned around on the dirt road and drove towards the border checkpoint.
Stopping at the checkpoint, several army soldiers came up to check.
Qin Fei suddenly remembered that he still had a P228 in his waist. This gun had been smuggled here with him from country D. He wanted to use it to defend himself, so it was best not to be discovered.
First, they checked the passports of three people, then several Heige soldiers circled the car several times, and asked Qin Fei and Kunchai to give them their luggage. After rummaging for a long time, they found nothing.
"Get off the bus!" These soldiers seemed determined to cause trouble. "Get off the bus and get checked!"
Qin Fei and Kunchai couldn't understand what these guys were talking about, but Songchai had been living here for more than ten years and learned the local language. He suddenly remembered that his cousin still had twelve thousand dollars in cash.
, the gadget was seen by these gangsters, and they would definitely snatch it away without saying a word, with an AK slapped on the head.
Usually, when entering Sierra Leone from Guinea, the inspection is not so strict. On the contrary, when leaving Sierra Leone, the inspection is very strict. It all has something to do with diamonds.
Kun guessed that these gangsters were going to search him, and he couldn't help but become nervous.
The sum of more than twelve thousand US dollars was stuffed in his crotch at the moment. What if...
