Chapter 3536: Who are you hiding from?

Early in the morning Australian time, Ye Chen, Hong Wu and Chen Zekai landed at Melbourne Airport.

Melbourne time is two hours ahead of China time. It is still dark in China. Ye Chen was afraid of disturbing Xiao Churan's sleep, so he didn't send her a message.

Chen Zekai had already arranged for the local Buckingham Palace Hotel staff to send a Cadillac SUV over.

After the three of them got the car, Chen Zekai, who had an international driver's license, was responsible for driving, and Ye Chen asked him to drive directly to the hospital where Tang Sihai was.

On the way, Ye Chen asked Chen Zekai: "Old Chen, are you sure Butler Tang is still in that hospital?"

Chen Zekai was a cautious person, and he said seriously, "Master, the people I arranged replied that they went in and checked three hours ago and confirmed that Butler Tang was still there."

"Okay." Ye Chen nodded and sighed, "I'll see Butler Tang later and heal his injuries. Then we'll take him back to Buckingham Palace. After I ask him some questions, I'll go settle the score with those brats."

Hong Wu pulled out a small utility knife from his pocket and said through gritted teeth, "Master Ye, as long as we catch those little bastards, I will carve the word 'bastard' on their foreheads!"

Ye Chen asked in surprise: "Where did you get the knife? You can't have brought it on the plane, right?"

Hong Wu said with a smile, "That's impossible. The security at domestic airports is so strict. There's no way you can bring this thing on a plane. I just bought it when I went to the convenience store to buy cigarettes at the airport."

After saying that, he pulled out a pack of export-grade Zhonghua cigarettes and complained, "I have to say, cigarettes in this damn place are damn expensive. Just a box of hard Zhonghua cigarettes costs almost three hundred yuan."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "You never forget your performance art wherever you go."

As he spoke, he remembered something and reminded Hong Wu: "But I have to tell you in advance, when you find someone, no matter what the situation is, you can't carve the word bastard on their forehead."

Hong Wu asked in confusion, "Why, Master Ye? If we don't teach them a lesson they'll never forget, it would be too easy for these little bastards!"

Ye Chen said seriously, "Why? Let me tell you, firstly, the local bastards don't know Chinese characters. If they go out with the words you carved on their foreheads, no one may recognize them. Maybe other bastards will think it's some cool and fashionable tattoo."

"Secondly, we shouldn't give the local media any ulterior motives. If you carve Chinese characters on their foreheads, the unscrupulous local media will definitely seize on this incident and exaggerate it. Who knows how they'll discredit us then? You have to understand that these people are always like this. If they shoot each other in the street and seven or eight people die, it's a trivial matter to them. But if a foreigner, especially an Asian, casually drops a piece of wrapping paper on their street, they'll escalate it to a national level and criticize them. We'd better keep a low profile. Even if we carve something, don't carve Chinese characters."

Hong Wu said with a smile: "That's easy. Just carve Bakayaro in Japanese or Xiba in Korean for them."

While driving, Chen Zekai joked, "Hong Wu, can you write Bakayaro in Japanese and Xiba in Korean?"

Hong Wu said seriously, "No, but I can learn! I can apply it right after I learn it!"

Chen Zekai gave her a thumbs up and praised her, "Great, you're still so eager to learn at your age. You have a bright future!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Don't even think about throwing dirty water on Japan and South Korea at this time. After all, these people are hostile to all Asians. If Asians throw dirty water on each other at this time, it will only increase their hostility towards Asians. I think it's better to engrave it in English. They speak English anyway."

Hong Wu chuckled and said, "I heard that this place was where Britain exiled criminals two hundred years ago?"

"That's true," Ye Chen said casually. "This place wasn't originally a good place. It's said there are more rabbits than people, and spiders are bigger than rabbits. Over 70% of the land can't grow crops, and over half can't even grow grass. But the iron ore reserves are astonishingly high, with iron content exceeding 60% in many places."

Hong Wu smacked his lips and said, "No wonder Britain wanted to exile criminals here. If we were to build a prison, we could make steel and iron fences using local materials."

Ye Chen knew he was being sarcastic, so he smiled and said, "Although their early history wasn't so glorious, they did have a mine. In this era, people laugh at the poor but not at prostitutes. Whoever has money is a developed country with modern civilization."

Hong Wu looked a little unconvinced, and cursed under his breath, "Many developed countries were once aggressive powers, and now they've transformed themselves into fucking civilized societies."

Ye Chen shook his head and smiled, and said nothing more. He was used to Hong Wu's clear likes and dislikes and his straightforwardness.

A few minutes later, Chen Zekai drove to the Parkville district of Melbourne and then arrived at the Royal Melbourne Hospital.

After the car was parked in the parking lot, Chen Zekai said to Ye Chen, "Master, Butler Tang is in the intensive care unit of the emergency department. Do you think we should go in now or arrange for someone else to check it out first?"

Ye Chen said: "Just go."

After saying that, he pushed the door and got out of the car.

Ye Chen felt that since Wu Feiyan had never included the Ye family in her target for elimination, Tang Sihai, as the steward of the Ye family, would definitely not be targeted by her, so he did not have to worry that this matter would involve the Poqing Society.

Since there is no need to worry about the Poqing Society, there is generally nothing to worry about. The most important thing is to go in and see Tang Sihai, heal his injuries as soon as possible, and then find out why he left without saying goodbye.

So, the three of them walked into the hospital together and came to the emergency department of the hospital. Chen Zekai found out the location of the intensive care unit and asked Ye Chen and Hong Wu to go to the second floor together.

At the nurses' station on the second floor, a nurse on duty stopped them and asked in English, "Who are you looking for?"

Chen Zekai immediately responded, "We're looking for the injured Chinese man, who is probably in his sixties and is in the intensive care unit."

The nurse said, "He has been discharged."

"Discharged from the hospital?!"

Except for Hong Wu who couldn't understand English, Ye Chen and Chen Zekai were all stunned.

Ye Chen immediately stepped forward and asked her, "When was he discharged from the hospital? Wasn't he seriously injured? Why did he have to be discharged?"

The nurse said, "He was discharged three hours ago. His injuries were serious, but his life was no longer in danger. He insisted on being discharged, and we couldn't force him to stay, so we processed the discharge procedures for him."

Ye Chen frowned when he heard this and quickly asked, "Do you know who took him out of the hospital?"

“No one answered,” the nurse said. “He left the hospital on crutches.”

Ye Chen was extremely surprised.

Even if Tang Sihai's life was not in danger, it could be seen from the photos that Xiao Churan showed him at the time that his injuries were serious and he would need to stay in bed for at least a month to recover. But less than 24 hours later, he was discharged from the hospital. Who was he trying to hide from by being discharged in such a hurry?

Is it to avoid those teenagers?

Or is it to avoid enemies?

Or, is it to hide from myself?

Ye Chen was confused for a moment. He had no idea that he had fallen into Tang Sihai's trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain.

What he didn't know was that at this moment, the limping Tang Sihai boarded a small Honda jet at a small civilian airport on the outskirts of Melbourne with the help of several men in black.

This plane is owned by an individual, a small mine owner in Western Australia. He is not very rich, so this private plane worth less than 10 million US dollars is not eye-catching. Here, it is just an entry-level private plane for small wealthy people.

Since the flight took off from a private airport and the reported route was from Melbourne to Port Hedland in Western Australia, which did not involve international routes, passengers did not need to undergo any inspection or registration. They could directly drive into the airport and did not even have to go to the terminal. They could board the plane at the end of the runway.

The owner of this plane lives in Melbourne with his family during his non-working hours, and goes to Western Australia during working hours. His main business is to transport the mined iron ore to Port Hedland, and then export it from Port Hedland to his customers in China, so he basically has to travel back and forth to Melbourne every week. It is basically impossible for the outside world to find out any clues when Tang Sihai takes his plane.

The plane taxied and took off in the morning light, flying from the southeast of Australia to the northwest of Australia, which was equivalent to flying a diagonal line in Australia.

After the plane arrives at the airport near Port Hedland, Tang Sihai will take a cargo ship transporting iron ore from Port Hedland to Japan.

Meanwhile, outside the Royal Melbourne Hospital, Ye Chen looked at the extensive city road network and frowned, saying, "Butler Tang has difficulty moving around. He certainly won't be able to walk far alone."

Chen Zekai asked, "Master, do you want to mobilize the local staff to find a way to track it down?"

Ye Chen sighed: "I'm afraid that Butler Tang is deliberately avoiding me."

After saying that, Ye Chen suddenly remembered something and immediately said to Chen Zekai: "Let's go to the police station and ask the local police for help. It is said that Butler Tang just immigrated to Australia not long ago. The legal documents and procedures for new immigrants must be very complete. Maybe the police have more information."

Chen Zekai nodded, but asked worriedly, "Master, what identity should we use to ask the police for help? If the police need to confirm the relationship between us and Butler Tang first, then I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to produce any supporting documents."

Ye Chen felt inexplicably irritated and frowned, saying, "Let's try our luck first. If the other party's demands are really harsh, I also have a way to make him tell the truth!"
