701 Pathetic


On the Coast Guard's dock, 25 crew members of the Victory Ray, including Captain Daniel Pitman and First Officer Leander, were treated like criminals.

As soon as the "Victory Ray" came to a stop, the anti-smuggling police of the Coast Guard boarded the "Victory Ray" and drove all 25 crew members off the ship like ducks.

The results of the search were surprising, the customs declaration documents of the "Victory Ray" were realistic, and there were only $15,000 worth of goods on the "Victory Ray", but when all the goods on the "Victory Ray" were concentrated on the dock, the total value of the goods had exceeded $19,000, which fully proved that the "Victory Ray" had smuggled behavior.

"Sir, this is unavoidable, there are a lot of things that are carried by the crew, and this part cannot be counted in the total value, and there is a problem with the way you calculate them, these goods are not worth so much in Portsmouth."

Daniel Pittman vigorously defended himself and firmly refused to admit that there was any smuggling.

The United States has recently been vigorously reinforcing smuggling, and at this cusp of hitting the muzzle of a gun, confiscating the goods and paying fines is a trivial matter, and if the "Victory Ray" is detained, it will be troublesome, and in order to buy the "Victory Ray", Daniel Pitman has borrowed a lot of usury, and if the ship is gone, it is estimated that Daniel Pitman will jump directly into the sea more happily.

Speaking of smuggling, in fact, the behavior of the "Victory Ray" and the overloading of the 21 st century are of the same nature, strictly speaking, this cannot even be regarded as smuggling, in ocean transportation, there is one count, almost 100 percent of the merchant ships have this kind of behavior, if this is not done, then there is simply not enough profit to resist the risk of ocean transportation.

"Mr.

Captain, if you think there is something wrong with our calculations, then you can report it to the Coast Guard Command, and if it is true, you will receive a cash reward of one-tenth of the value of the case, which is much more cost-effective than your adventures at sea."

Coast Guard Major Keno Kenan slowly straightened his gloves with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Daniel Pitman gritted his teeth, glared at Keno Kenan with hatred, pinched the small stack of dollars in his hand that had been soaked in sweat, and still didn't dare to hand it out.

If this is handed over, it would be fine if Keno Kenan was let go, but if Keno Kenan deliberately found fault, then it would be difficult to argue that Daniel Pittman's crime would be added again.

"Mr.

Major, good work, you are the Coast Guard, you should know our hard work, sometimes mistakes are inevitable, I swear this is the first time, and there will never be a next time."

Daniel Pittman changed his strategy, maybe it would make the major in front of him feel compassion, as for Daniel Pittman's oath That's just a joke, Daniel Pitman can always swear by his ancestral eight generations if he wants.

"You promise" Keno Kenan was intrigued, as if moved by Daniel Pittman's words.

"Yes, I promise, I promise there will never be a next time, for God's sake."

Daniel Pittman was immediately in good spirits and looked very promising, but Daniel Pittman himself couldn't believe it.

"I don't believe it" Keno Kenan shook his head with a smile, the banter in his eyes completely driving Daniel Pitman crazy.

"Damn it, are you teasing me, I'm British, I'm asking to get in touch with the British Embassy, I'm going to hire a lawyer, I'm going to accuse you of this violation, it's a conspiracy between you and Customs."

Daniel Pittman realizes that he can't be good this time, and since that's the case, he might as well make a big deal out of it, and maybe there will be a turnaround.

Although the U.S. government takes this very seriously, in this era, this kind of thing is very common, and almost all cargo ships have this phenomenon, so as long as someone is willing to help Daniel Pittman, this matter will be a big thing and a small thing.

But to put it mildly, because of Daniel Pittman's nationality, if this matter gets bigger, maybe someone will link this matter to England, and then the British government will stand up for Daniel Pittman, and Daniel Pittman can also get out.

So the crux of the matter is how to make a big deal out of it, and it should be a good idea to find a newspaper, because those unscrupulous reporters will turn black into white for the sake of money.

"It's a trivial matter, you can't find an embassy, right?"

said Keno Kenan's expression finally became solemn, and he looked a little embarrassed.

It's right to be embarrassed, it's better to act as if nothing had happened because of the trouble, and Daniel Pitman immediately picked up the effort: "Of course it doesn't matter if it's something else, but it's not a small matter, think about how many merchant ships come and go between the United States and Britain every year, so it's necessary for us to exercise restraint with each other." ” "Restraint, it sounds good, maybe it's just a misunderstanding" Keno Kenan frowned, touched his chin and looked at the anti-smuggling police who were registering on the dock, just when Daniel Pitman felt that Keno Kenan was going to let him go, Keno Kenan suddenly changed his words: "Okay, please don't get me wrong, I will officially inform you now, because of your smuggling, you have caused heavy losses to the United States, so we are going to temporarily impound your ship now, you can go to the British Embassy, you can also go to a lawyer, You can go to anyone you think would be helpful to you, but I will say that that's the final decision for our Coast Guard. ” Arrest the ship It was a bolt from the blue, especially when it was announced in this way, that Daniel Pitman felt like a drowning hapless bastard, and was finally pulled to the shore with a rope, only to be rescued at the last moment, but the people on the shore let go The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Daniel Pittman's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and just as Daniel Pittman was about to erupt, two anti-smuggling policemen came over and kicked Daniel Pittman to the ground, and then Daniel Pittman was handcuffed and put in a temporary prison for the Coast Guard, as for when the interrogation will be held, it depends on the mood of the anti-smuggling police.

It should be noted that the temporary prisons of the Coast Guard are all closed single cells, the cells are about one meter high and about 50 centimeters wide, normal adults can not stand normally at all when they go in, and at the same time they cannot lie down, they can only curl up in a very awkward posture in the cell, because there is no time to release the wind, and there are no visitation regulations, so people in the cell are equivalent to being locked up, and the information of the Coast Guard shows that if you stay in this kind of cell for more than 24 hours, people may go crazy.

If it is more than 48 hours, the spirit is irreversibly traumatized, while if it is 72 hours Well, no one has ever lasted 72 hours, the man who was close to 72 hours, broke his head alive on the iron railing of the cell, and his strength was so great that the railing was bent and the person was already cold when he was found.

"Sir, we only have a part of the goods that have not been taxed, we can make up the tax, and if there is a fine, then we will accept it, I think, not to this extent."

Leander didn't have a chance to speak just now, and it wasn't until the smuggling police took Daniel Pitman away that Leander tried to communicate with Keno Kenan.

"If it's just tax evasion, it's really not, but your problem is that you have succeeded in provoking people you shouldn't have provoked, and it just so happens that our coast guard needs results, so you are unlucky."

Keno Kenan didn't hide it, Daniel Pitman was right just now, as a member of the Coast Guard, Keno Kenan can understand how difficult it is for the seafarers on the merchant ship, but understanding is understanding, and when needed, Keno Kenan will not hesitate to raise the butcher's knife.

"What you mean, Mr.

Major, is that we sounded the ship's whistle near Governor's Island," Leander thought as he thought about it, finally remembering a detail that had been almost forgotten by himself.

"Not only that, but blowing the whistle at will only means that there is a problem with your morality, your problem is smuggling, and if you are innocent, then no one will pour dirty water on you."

Keno Kenan turned around and went back to the office, and when he left, he didn't forget to order the crew to be sent out of the barracks, and as for the whereabouts of the crew, Keno Kenan didn't care.

"Louis, you go to Mr.

Holier and tell him that we are in trouble, ask him to help Jimmy, you go to the British Embassy and tell them what happened to us, they will not sit idly by and leave Zach alone, please go and send a telegram to Mr.

Captain's family, just say that we have arrived safely, don't talk about anything else."

Leander was the first mate and had a lot of prestige among the crew, so although the Victory Ray was seized by the Coast Guard, the crew was still willing to follow Leander's orders.

After arranging these trifles, Leander went back to customs to find Tommy, hoping to get a definite answer from Tommy.

"If you're in trouble, I know that Daniel's kind of person, even if nothing happens today, will die on his broken mouth sooner or later" When Leander finished talking about what happened to the "Victory Ray", Tommy said with a sneer, not the slightest intention to help.

"Tommy, help, we don't have any acquaintances here, speaking of which, your relationship with us is the best, please help us, for God's sake."

In fact, Leander wanted to say that it was for Franklin's sake, but if he said it, he was afraid that it would be counterproductive, so Leander changed his words.

A big businessman like Li Mu can indeed cover the sky with one hand, but a small businessman like Daniel Pitman often has to make compromises, just now even at the most critical juncture, Daniel Pitman did not report Tommy, otherwise, although Tommy will definitely be punished, but from now on, the "Victory Ray" will also be targeted by all the customs brokers of New York Customs, in order to keep his job, Daniel Pitman has to swallow this bitter fruit.

"I've already reminded you, don't make trouble in the waters around Governors Island, what do you think Springfield Security Company is, half of the annual anti-smuggling tasks of the Coast Guard are outsourced to Springfield Security, so when you see those black suits, you should be quiet, just like when you see your master's Rottweiler."

Tommy's mouth is a bit vicious, but he's not bad and doesn't leave it alone.

"I warned Daniel, but unfortunately he didn't listen, you know he's the captain."

Leander was also very helpless, the person with great ambition and talent was Daniel Pittman, who was arrogant when he had a little achievement, and no one dared to object to saying anything on the "Victory Radiance", but he got off the ship Well, now Daniel Pittman is a joke.

"Now I can't help it, you know, I'm just a little person, and I don't even have the qualifications to set foot on the docks of Governors Island, if you want, you can try your luck on the docks in Battery Park, the big guys will always be a little more restrained when facing the public, maybe there will be surprises."

Tommy can't do anything, and even if he does, he won't tell Leander, just kidding, and don't you want money to help with ideas "Battery Park, okay, I'm going to try my luck."

Leander is now a drowning hapless bastard, and even if he grabs a straw, Leander is not willing to let go.

Because of the continuous investment for several years, the facilities in Battery Park have become more and more perfect, and a new coffee shop has opened on the first floor of the Carnegilim Steel Building, and the owner has ingeniously placed the coffee table on the grass of the park, and there are parasols on the table, with white tablecloths and fragrant coffee, many people can sit for an afternoon with a cup of coffee, which is a rare leisure time in the bustling Manhattan.

Leander was definitely not in the mood for coffee, and walking into Battery Park, Leander headed straight to the docks, hoping to bump into a big guy and get his attention.

"Please stop, there is a private territory ahead."

Because of the hurry, Leander didn't notice the roadside signs, and just when Leander saw the small pier, two big men in black stopped Leander.

Leander knew the uniform worn by Dahan, which was the same as the security personnel of the Springfield Security Company, and the same uniforms of the anti-smuggling police officers who boarded the ship to inspect it today.

The same Leander suddenly seemed to understand something.

"I'm sorry, I have something to see Mr.

Reem."

Leander tried to meet Li Mu through formal channels, and although the hope was slim, Leander was still willing to give it a try.

"Do you have an appointment?"

the big man in black was suave, but Leander knew that it was just an illusion, and sure enough, no luck happened, and two minutes later, Leander was thrown into the East River next to the dock.

It's pathetic
