2568 Cherish Peace
One of the pirates raised his leg and kicked the body of the car that had countless bullet holes outside. He cursed in the Masoli language, “d.a.m.n that Curry! We must let Lardner teach them a lesson! We must teach them a lesson!”
Curry was the leader of one of the four largest pirate groups in Mogadishu. He and Lardner were archenemies. Sometimes, the two of them would even fight at sea to fight for merchant s.h.i.+ps.
The Bonant Guards under Lardner hated Curry’s Masoli Sailors because their range of activity was so wide. They could even go 200 nautical miles away from the coastline!
They kept robbing merchant s.h.i.+ps there. Many merchant s.h.i.+ps were taken away by the Masoli Sailors before they could enter Kensall Bay.
!!
In order to strive for a bigger territory on the coastline, the earliest-established pirate group, the Bonant Guards, often fought with the Masoli Sailors.
This time, they finally managed to get a huge sum of ransom money. However, their hostages were s.n.a.t.c.hed away by Curry. Looking at the two abandoned cars in front of them, the pirates of the Bonant Guards were completely furious.
Lardner was even angrier. He stared at the white man in front of him who was negotiating the ransom amount. Furious, Lardner pulled out the pistol from his waist. With his dreadlocks and dark eyes, he glared fiercely at the man. He gritted his teeth and shouted in Arabic, “d.a.m.n white man! Are you working with Curry to destroy me?”
At 4.30 am, Lardner, who was negotiating the ransom, received a report from his subordinate that the four Chinese people locked in the dungeon of his residence had been kidnapped!
As for the white man in front of him, he had been negotiating with him since last night. Until now, there was still no result. He only stayed for one night and the Chinese men who could get Lardner a huge sum of money were kidnapped.
The white man was shocked too. When he received the news, he couldn’t believe it and cursed angrily. Then, he glared at the black pirate, Lardner, who was pointing a gun at him. “You’d better find the four of them as soon as possible! We only want one of the four Chinese men! You can do whatever you want with the rest of them!
“We can discuss the ransom if you find them. If you can’t find them, you won’t get a single cent! If you don’t want the ransom, you can continue pointing your gun at me and waste your time here!”
Lardner wanted to leave, but he wouldn’t let the white man leave. The moment he walked out, he asked the dozen people he brought to trap the few people the white man brought. Then, he took a bus to Mogadishu!
d.a.m.n it, he shouldn’t have left Mogadishu last night! If he hadn’t left, he wouldn’t have let anyone take the Chinese men away!
Dawn finally broke. The faint sunlight enveloped the city, signaling the arrival of a new day.
At one end of the city, countless people gathered at the ruined bar and cried miserably.
Dead bodies were carried out one by one. Someone recognized the bodies as their fellows and rushed over while crying tragically.
The family members who were still waiting clutched their chests with one hand and kept praying to Allah. They prayed that their family members would be safe and sound. In the end, however, their family members were found dead.
They now had to wait for the remains of their family members. Yesterday, their family members were still standing beside them and talking to them. Today, they had turned into cold corpses.
“Allah!”
An old woman with white hair laid on top of a young body and cried miserably. The entire scene was a mess. She wasn’t the only one crying tragically.
