Chapter 756: Unexpected developments.

"We have received information that the s.h.i.+p contains prohibited industrial equipment. This industrial equipment is the main industrial equipment for the production of enriched uranium. Under the terms of the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty, this industrial equipment violated [no to any non-nuclear country, a direct or indirect transfer of nuclear weapons or nuclear explosive devices, and not to a.s.sist non-nuclear countries to manufacture nuclear weapons].

After showing the doc.u.ments, the white foreigner in the lead showed a doc.u.ment written in English to the crew. The last page of the doc.u.ment was covered with seven official seals.

"Where are you going exporting the supplies on your s.h.i.+p?" The IAEA investigator named Casimir introduced himself and asked the confused crew with a serious look.

"Of course, it's being s.h.i.+pped to Nigeria, it's clearly written on the manifest." A crew member answered in English.

"Very well."

Casimir suddenly smiled and said loudly, "Whether it's China or Nigeria, Malaysia has jurisdiction over the Strait of Malacca; they're all signatories to the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty. Now you have left the port of China, and are crossing the Strait of Malacca and transporting nuclear industrial equipment to Nigeria. Of course, our International Atomic Energy Agency will carry out an inventory of this s.h.i.+p."

"Equipment for the nuclear industry?"

Dozens of the crew members were looking at each other, did they make a mistake?

At first, they thought the Malaysian Marine Police were there to investigate smuggling, or they had their heads smashed by the b.u.t.t of a gun, and they wanted to come and beat them. Unexpectedly, several people from the IAEA came here with United Nations authorized doc.u.ments to take inventory of their cargo s.h.i.+ps and look for equipment for the nuclear industry, they naturally do not understand. In the beginning, the cargo was loaded at the giant beast industry port, and it was full of industrial equipment of unimaginable weight.

Thinking of this, they turned their attention to the two employees of the Huge Industrial Monster next to them. One of them was on the satellite phone, and the other was still cold and serious. Afraid of not understanding English, a crew member who knew English quickly rushed to the side and reported the situation to them in a low voice.

"Search with me," the IAEA investigator leading the team gave an order, and marine police immediately rushed to the cargo deck with their guns as ordered.

The Horizon freighter was carrying twelve supercritical generator sets and tens of thousands of tons of industrial equipment. The units were anch.o.r.ed to the deck, wrapped in several pieces of rain-proof canvas. For the rest of the industrial equipment, some were loaded into custom-made, non-standard containers and were fixed to the deck.

If it is said that the industrial equipment transported by the first s.h.i.+p, the Lord Duan Battles.h.i.+p is mainly construction machinery and civil engineering equipment, the content of the second s.h.i.+p is mainly based on industrial production equipment. In addition to supercritical units, there were many advanced products, even five-axis machining centers, centrifuges, and five-coordinate gantry milling machines.

"I see. Which of you dares to make a move?" Seeing the movement of the Marine Police, the cold-faced and silent Master Metal Expert was instantly stunned, he pulled out a Glock 17 from his lower back, before everyone could react; the black muzzle was already stuck to the forehead of the IAEA investigator who gave the order. His tone was like the cold wind blowing through Siberia, and the moment he lifted the safety lever, someone with a keen ear could vaguely hear the sound of a "bang dang" as the sleeve was loaded. No one can figure out how he completed this series of actions in an instant, but everyone could see it clearly. This employee of the Huge Industrial Monster and ruthless was not joking.

"You... you..."

Casimir's expression stiffened instantly, he was holding the doc.u.ment stiffly just now, and a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead. Only then did the marine police and crew have time to exclaim.

"He even had a gun!"

Well ~ some captains who ran ocean freighters usually also hid a gun in the room to deal with emergencies.

Pirates stealing crude oil from freighters on this side of the Strait of Malacca are inexhaustible, especially in the highest risk waters which were between 2 degrees north lat.i.tude and 102 degrees east longitude; there was often news of stolen fishermen and small freighters. But this is fundamentally missed with freighters over 30,000 tones. Even while sailing in Somali waters, the captain did not dare to pull out a gun and shoot the pirates, and this employee of this Huge Industrial Monster is atypical. He hid a pistol near his body and dared to pull it out in front of dozens of naval gendarmes, rifles in hand, he pointed a gun at the head of a United Nations agency official.

Dozens of Marine Constables faced the enemy, all pointing their guns at the two Master Metal Experts.

"Drop your gun, and you are under arrest, we are in Malaysian waters and we have the right to arrest you," shouted policeman Na Yabu, who held the rank of the police chief, hiding behind a strong subordinate.

"Bang ~"

After 0.1 seconds, a shot rang out from the stretched bridge. The sharp, melodious shot rang out, and the Master Metal Expert's muzzle had redirected to Casimir's forehead. But the bullet pa.s.sed close to the ear of the st.u.r.dy marine policeman and hit the wide-brimmed hat of the inspector who flew like a kite with a broken string and circled feebly in the sky twice.

There was a sudden scream at the scene, and the crew roared and ran to hide behind a piece of equipment. Na Yabu embarra.s.sedly picked up his hat and crawled to hide behind a metal box, out of breath, his face covered in sweat.

"Come straight on if you want to die."

The Master Metal Expert swept away the gang of navy policemen holding guns, but those navy policemen were shaking at the time, and they didn't even dare to point their guns at him. It's over, they didn't even see how the shot was fired earlier. If he dared to shoot at this time, the UN investigator who was kidnapped would certainly have a hole in his forehead.

To put it bluntly, their leader gave up, and this IAEA investigator can only give up too. h.e.l.l, when such a big event happened, the man who was obviously part of the navy group still went his own way and stood ready to make a satellite phone call.

A cold wind blew through the crotch of these marine constables, and they regretted their trip through the muddy water! As for the a.s.sisted investigator, Casimir, his teeth were trembling, and he didn't even dare to have the courage to ask for mercy. The shot from earlier gave him the best clue about the other party's character.

What else could he do?

"Hurry up to find the support of the other brothers, make a phone call."

Anyway, it is impossible for the Horizon of a load of ten thousand tons to disappear into the vast ocean.

When the news broke, senior Malaysian police officials and Energy Agency director Aklan, who led the operation, were all shocked.

"Move... Make the call... Make a move!"

Ten minutes later, the Center of the International Atomic Energy Agency, headquartered in Vienna, Austria, made an official announcement.

[Chinese cargo s.h.i.+p carrying prohibited nuclear industrial equipment, in the waters of the Strait of Malacca, refused to cooperate with investigators and marine police inspection, openly confronted the inspection with weapons, and even illegally detained a person. The freighter was called Horizon, number 0772.]

Fifteen minutes later, China's official spokesperson issued a news story protesting the onboard inspection conducted by the International Atomic Energy Agency in the Strait of Malacca. And said it violated the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and the Strait of Malacca Pa.s.sage System.

Twenty minutes later, the US Energy Administration issued a press release calling on both sides to exercise restraint and make joint efforts for the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, not to sell any industrial equipment that could produce nuclear weapons to a non-nuclear country.

For some reason, none of the three parties mentioned the freighter was carrying Huge Industrial Monster material.

Thirty minutes later, the Peregrine Falcon and the Lord's Chariot rushed off. Ye Qing personally sat in the Peregrine Falcon. Several unimportant production lines at the factory have been temporarily closed. The monsters that were recruited entered the Longxitan Beach cargo warehouse without saying a word.

"Without faith or law!" On the plane, Ye Qing clenched his fists, and his face was solemn.

The International Atomic Energy Agency is really powerful enough, or the Americans are powerful enough, and they need their approval even to s.h.i.+p any equipment on board. That's right, Ye Qing has already received an emergency call from China's sales department, and they have already figured out this incident, and the US Energy Administration is behind this.

At the same time, around the Horizon, there were already a number of maritime patrol boats lingering nearby. A Navy Police Bell 206 utility helicopter hovered over the Horizon Bridge and used a camera to take photos of the bridge.

However, there was no trace of the two Master Metal Experts on the bridge. At this time, they escorted the investigator into the cabin, and only dozens of Navy police were crouching as far as the eye could see.
