C42 42nd Chapter

After about a week, I invited Yusuf over. At the scene of Balls' funeral, I have a lot of questions to ask Yusuf. I want to know what happened that day. But I held it in, in such an occasion. . . In front of so many people, I can't ask. At the same time, You Sufu had just experienced a great disaster and needed time to recover. I've thought it through. Wait a few more days, wait for him to recover. I'll ask him to come to the embassy to pick him up, Also ask him about the details.

Yusufu and the fat sister-in-law arrived as promised.

The moment we met, I hugged You Sufu tightly once again, and we were speechless for a long time. I had a good relationship with You Sufu to begin with. Because of this experience, the two of us became even closer to each other. I prepared a few of my best dishes and poured the National Wine. You Sufu loves drinking, especially our National Wine.

"Come, for our reunion," I raised my wine glass, and You Sufu also raised it. We clinked our glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

"Why didn't you call me that day? I waited for you for a long time. " After drinking the first glass, I asked. This question has been lingering in my mind for a long time.

"Don't mention it," Yusufu drank a mouthful of wine and said. "It's like this. Balls said he wanted to invite you out to sea, so he asked me to accompany him. I promised him. That afternoon, I had an afternoon meeting with Powers, and it was already 5: 30 after the meeting ended. After the meeting, We hurriedly rushed home and took our things. Then we went to the beach. We were so busy that we forgot to call you. When they arrived at the beach, they saw. . . The seawater had started to dehydration. We discussed it and felt that there was no time for us to call you again. When we call you, we won't be able to get out of the sea. At that time, We thought that there would be a long time, as long as you're willing. . . I'll ask you to come with me in the future.

A long way to go. What they were thinking was exactly the same as what I was thinking at that time.

"Now that I think about it, it's fortunate that I didn't call you that day," You Sufu continued. "Otherwise, if something happens to you, we won't be able to explain it to your family and your government. What do you think? "

"I'm not fine," I said. To be honest, I was indeed afraid.

"Yes," You Sufu said.

"What happened that day?" I asked You Sufu.

"Sigh," You Sufu sighed. After stopping for a while, he told me everything that happened that day in detail. "That day. . . Because you were going, we brought an extra barrel of diesel with us. Did you know? That day, we went fishing. We managed to get out of the sea before the tide fell. When we reached the sea where we often catch fish, we went down the net. That day. . . I think we must have encountered a school of fish. There are a lot of fish, let's catch them. Each fish net is bigger than the last. "

"You guys didn't know to come back earlier," the fat sister-in-law interjected and complained.

"At that time, how could we care?" You Sufu said, "We caught them excitedly. It's been a long time since we caught so many fish. We wanted to catch more. Greed is a mistake. In the end, we forgot the time. Unknowingly, the sky turned dark. When the cabin was filled with fish, Balls and I decided to go home. At first, we were very happy. We chatted and laughed. Powers said that if he had known earlier that he could catch so many fish. . . He might as well have called Mr. Zhong over and let him enjoy being a fisherman. I said, Yeah. "

You Sufu drank a mouthful of wine and said, "How would I know that on the way back, Suddenly, there was a gust of wind. It was still calm just now. After a while, there was a strong wind. The wind was getting stronger and stronger. Our boat is small to begin with, so we have a lot of fish on board. The wind was still strong, so the ship didn't move forward at all. I was the one driving the ship at that time. The boat didn't move forward. And kept getting blown out. There's no other way. We endured the pain and threw a portion of the fish in the cabin. Think of this way to reduce the load of the ship, so that the ship will be lighter. Then we could walk forward. However, the ship still refused to go forward. We have no choice but to continue throwing the fish out. We threw almost all of the fish we caught with great difficulty. The boat still can't move. "

You Sufu drank another mouthful of wine and continued. "You know, our ship can only sail against the wind. Not against the wind. The boat will be overturned. After fighting with the wind for an unknown period of time, the wind started to slow down. But the diesel was used up. Without any power, the boat could only drift along with the wind. The first few days, We can still see other fishing boats, we call them for help. But they didn't respond. They must have thought we were fishing too. They didn't think that we were calling them for help. "

" Then what do you eat? " I asked curiously.

"For the first few days, we feed ourselves with fish," Yusufu said. "There's no fire on the ship, so we can only eat raw food. "

Hearing Yousufu say eating raw fish to satiate my hunger, my stomach began to churn. My stomach is still the stomach of the mountain people. I'm hungry for meat and not hungry for seafood. In the past few years, I've been at Kibi first. Then I went to Yoshido and ate a lot of seafood. I'm already sick of it. Not to mention raw fish, even fish that were made in many different ways. Whether it was braised, steamed, fried, sweet and sour or other cooking methods. . . I don't want to eat any more. I can't imagine what kind of experience it would be to eat raw fish.

"Slowly, we finished the rest of the fish. We regretted throwing too many fish at the beginning," You Sufu continued, "if we had kept more at the time. . . It might have been better. After eating the fish, we drank all the water we brought. We're in a desperate situation. We can't remember how many days we've been floating for, and we don't know where we've been floating to. We think we'll die for sure. Just as we were about to faint from hunger. . . God has eyes, and a Pelican landed on the boat. It must be tired from flying too. I used my last bit of strength to catch it. In the next few days, We'll barely live by drinking bird blood. "

Pelicans were called Pelicans. They were large seabirds with long, sharp beaks and lived by fishing. They were often seen near the Gido Sea. To survive by drinking Pelicans' blood, I dare not imagine.

"We've been looking forward to a boat coming and a plane coming to save us," Yusuf said sadly. "The day that Balls and I were rescued. . . We didn't have any strength left. We were half asleep and half awake. Suddenly, I heard the buzzing sound of the plane. I thought I was hallucinating. The sound of the plane became louder and louder. I struggled to open my eyes and saw a small plane flying over from afar. It flew closer and closer. Balls also saw it. I staggered to my feet and waved at the plane with all my strength. The plane saw us. It flew over the boat and dropped some water and food. The water and food fell on the surface of the sea, and I scooped up a few of them. Powers is so weak that he can't move. "

"Then what happened to Balls later on?" When I heard that, I couldn't help but sigh and quickly ask about Balls' situation. "In the beginning, I heard that he was rescued together with you. "

"Yeah. " Yusufu sighed deeply. "We were saved together. Not long after the plane flew away, a ship came. Rescue us on the ship. You know, General Powers usually has a weaker body than me. We were sent to the National Hospital, I stayed in the hospital for a few days and slowly recovered. But Powers wasn't as lucky as me. When I got to the hospital, there was no way to save him. "

As Yousufu spoke, tears streamed down his face. I also cry.

"You know," Yousufu said, choking up a little. "For the few days that we drifted on the sea, Balls kept talking about you. He said, Fortunately, we didn't bring Mr. Zhong out. Otherwise, if something were to happen, how would we explain it to their government? He repeated it countless times. "

I seemed to be able to hear what Balls said. At that time, he was still thinking about me, and I was very touched.

"In addition, there is another matter that he is still brooding over," Yusufu said. "He said that if he can come back alive, he must tell you. If he can't come back, he told me to tell you that he has let you down because you were hit by a motorcycle when you first came here. "

"Why?" I asked.

"At that time, you also looked for me, asking us to find the culprit. Do you remember that?" You Sufu said.

"Of course I remember," I said.

"We said that the culprit was Kibi," You Sufu said. "Actually, it wasn't. That person was actually our Yoshido. "

"Is that so?" I said. I thought of how Renjie insisted that the person was not one of them.

You Sufu nodded and said, "Yes. "

"Then is there anyone behind him?" I asked.

"We're not very sure either," Yusufu said, "but he's a Yoshido, that's for sure. Powers felt guilty about this. I have to tell you clearly. "

"Then where is he now?" I asked.

"He left. I don't know where he went. After the incident, we never saw him again," You Sufu said.

I didn't say anything. Looks like he left feeling guilty.

"Oh right. There's one more thing. You Sufu thought of something else. "I didn't really understand either. Permanent Secretary Balls told me to tell you that someone wanted to come to Gido, but he didn't give him a visa. Yes, that's what he should have said. He told me to tell you as well. "

" Thank you. It's already such a time. He was still thinking about me, "Wang Yao said. I understood what Balls meant.

" Yeah, he said he would definitely let me tell you, "Yusufu said.

"Thank you," I said, "MaYMYY00DFRENDREEE!"

"Mayis Sulley!" Yusufu drew a cross in front of her chest.

At the end of my life, Balls still thought of me and left me a message. My tears couldn't help but flow down again. I will forever lose my best friend in Gido. I can't imagine what kind of situation my future work will face without him.

At that time, I didn't think that the person who would take over as the permanent secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would be Donkey Depei.
