The Peak
"Wait... so you are planning to hijack their tanker?" Zhou Jingren asked. "Why?"
"No reason." She smiled. "That Leon... cannot be trusted. Everyone is expecting not to play dirty. This is probably because they knew my grandmother is known for her clean reputation." She sneered. "They are wrong."
"You an the Corneel?"
"Everyone." She narrowed her eyes. "Leon — alright, not just him. His son and even that fiance are acting suspicious. They are acting warm, as if... you know I can always spot fake people. No matter how big their smile is, or how warm they sound, I can sll them from a mile away."
Her words imdiately made her husband chuckle. "What are you a bear?" He froze. He widened his eyes when he realized how silly he is to insinuate that she is a bear.
As expected, Lily’s face already darkened. "Are you calling fat, Mr. Zhou?"
"Eh? No — No—" he held his hands in front of him. "Bears have the best— "
"You just called a bear!"
"If you just let — "
"Bears are fat!"
"No, they’re not. Hey — before you say anything, just let — "
"You dare call fat?" Lily narrowed her eyes at him. She stood and walked opposite him. "You really called fat?"
"No. I didn’t call you fat. Bears have the best..."
"I am not listening!" she covered her ears. "Don’t you use whatever knowledge that you have to try to convince that you didn’t call fat."
"I didn’t!"
"I can’t hear you!" Lily yelled. "You called fat! Your child will hear about this bullying when he or she grows up! I will make sure to add and twist this story and make my child hate their father for calling their mother fat."
"Hey! Hey! You are going overboard. Bears are— "
"I won’t listen to you! These reasons — " Lily’s words were interrupted by a knock on Zhou Jingren’s door.
"Hey!" Qin Yuanfeng walked inside smiling at the two before he froze on his feet. Did he co at the wrong ti?
"Yuanfeng! Good thing you are here!" Zhou Jingren instantly gestured for his brother-in-law to sit down. "Co... I need your help with sothing."
"Oh. What is it?"
"Why are you here?" Lily chid in.
"I was going to show you the— "
"Before anything else," Zhou Jingren interrupted him. "Why don’t you tell Lily what terrestrial mammal has the best sense of sll in the world?"
"Bears." Qin Yuanfeng answered before Lily could rebut. As expected, Lily’s ear turned scarlet. She pursed her lips, unamused by the fact that she could not act so childish in front of her brother and risk showing her true self in front of Yuanfeng. Lily cleared her throat, a smile blood on her face.
"I know that." She said with a straight face. "I also happen to know that sharks have a good sense of sll.���
"Actually— "
"Yuanfeng... there is no, actually." Lily interrupted him before he could correct her. These two... these two seem to think that they are so smart, ah. "Why don’t you tell us why you are here? You know... you are interrupting our foreplay, ah."
"Huh?"
"She is joking." Zhou Jingren chuckled as he shook his head inwardly.
"Oh! Then... please check your email. I sent you an encrypted one."
"What did you send him?"
"It was a video of so pirates hijacking an oil tanker two months ago. I got it from the satellite. I figured Zhou Jingren could analyze it before I showed it to you. I am not sure if I got sothing so..."
"Really?" Lily lifted an eyebrow. "Isn’t that illegal?"
"Only if you get caught." Qin Yuanfeng shrugged. "Anyway... this one..." he pointed at Zhou Jingren’s laptop screen. "I think... I think these people are experts. Look at how organized they are. As if... as if they are very familiar with the interior of the ship. Is that even possible?"
"Like expert pirates?" Lily asked, her eyes glued at the screen.
"These are not pirates." Zhou Jingren said. "Are these the people that had been hijacking oil tankers?"
"Yes. I had three videos. All from the different tiline and this man... right here? The one wearing shades? He is in the video, so they must be in the sa group. Here... let show you the other videos." Qin Yuanfeng used his phone to access his laptop and showed them the other two videos. "Here look, it’s the sa man. Sa built, the sa tattoo on his right arm. Just a different hairstyle. Now... watch the last video."
After confirming that it is indeed the sa man, the trio watched all the videos again.
"I was wondering... if they are trained or sothing. I an... There are three uncommon types of ships and yet, they are so organized. From the ti of the attack to the cara’s blind spot. It is so organized and clean. Do you think I’m wrong?"
"I actually think you are right." Lily nodded.
"Again, these are not pirates." Zhou Jingren uttered, his face dark. "Is there a way to get a closeup on that tattoo?"
"Oh, right... let grab my laptop real quick." Qin Yuanfeng uttered before he ran out of the room.
"Is there sothing wrong?" Lily asked her husband. "If those are not pirates, then... who are they?"
"I know that tattoo... if I am wrong, they are an organization in South East Asia, terrorists." Zhou Jingren uttered. "Let see the close-up photo so I can confirm."
"But terrorists hijacking oil tankers? I haven’t heard of that." Lily tried to recall the news about these events. "Wait... pirates are also called mariti terrorists, no?"
"These are different." Zhou Jingren said. "These terrorists are involved in bombing and a lot of killings in South East Asia." His jaws thinned as he continued playing the video. "This could an that there is a possibility these people are not Somali Pirates and are only using their na to commit atrocious cris."
"But... isn’t that too... organized? First, terrorists wouldn’t have the ans to do a large scale assault like this. They would need resources and money, expertise, and a lot of practice to be able to pull this off." She stared at him. "Unless... soone is supporting them behind the scenes."
