Chapter 1589: Race against time

The call was connected, but Xia Ruofei heard a loud noise coming from the earpiece of the mobile phone, and the sound of whirring kept sounding.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help frowning secretly, and said that this Yankee is also a billionaire. Why is the mobile phone so bad!
But he didn't bother about it now, and asked directly in English, "Is it Charlie Koch?"
"Whew ... I ... it's inconvenient ... whew ... answer! Slightly ... later ... whew ... for you ... come back ... whew!"
There were intermittent sounds from the cell phone, mixed with huge wind noise.
Xia Ruofei could barely hear what the other party said, but after the other party spoke, he hung up the phone.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He wanted to try to take shortcuts. I didn't expect that this Yankee is not such a thing. He is his life saver anyway! He turned away and didn't recognize him?
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei didn't talk to Luo Qingfeng and Zhang Chao before calling, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing.
Since this Charlie was unreliable, Xia Ruofei also lost the idea of ​​taking shortcuts, and secretly decided that after arriving at Iswatlan, first find a quiet place to receive the arms into the space, and then bring Luo Qingfeng , Find out the situation of the Gulf Group, give their senior management a tip, and solve the problem once and for all.
As a result, Xia Ruofei put away his mobile phone, and then he closed his eyes and recuperated.
...
At this time, near the sea where the yacht sank last night, Charlie Koch was just hoisted to the scene with the first rescue helicopter with the help of rescue workers.
Rescuers were very excited after confirming his identity-this is a billionaire! And after American society had a great influence, after receiving his help message yesterday evening, a large number of rescue forces began to rush to this area. On the one hand, his identity is too prominent, and all parties attach great importance to fear that he will die at sea. On the other hand, everyone knows that who rescued him first will mean a super generous reward. Already.
Now, they can confirm that it is their rescue team that has taken the lead.
Several professional rescue ships set off at the same time last night, but this area is too far away from the United States, so after a night's journey, no rescue ship arrived at the coordinates of the distress signal.
However, the rescue ships are equipped with advanced rescue helicopters, which can greatly expand the search radius.
Although there are signal transmitters sending position coordinates uninterruptedly, this coordinate can only confirm a general range. In the vast sea, it takes some luck to find a small lifeboat as small as the target.
And the luck of this rescue helicopter was obviously good. For their first flight, they actually found Charlie Koch, even they couldn't believe it.
It wasn't until rescue workers descended and took Charlie Koch to the helicopter that everyone finally confirmed that he had indeed rescued Charlie Koch.
The captain of the helicopter immediately sent a message of rescue success to the rescue boat by radio-after all, there are several rescue forces operating at sea at the same time, and at least six or seven helicopters are searching in the nearby waters. Now people have been rescued. Others Rescue forces can naturally return to the sea, and the rescue ship to which this helicopter belongs must go all out to prepare, including the medical staff, psychologists, etc., and some life support facilities must also be prepared in advance.
Charlie's psychology was actually quite calm. To be honest, he didn't have the ecstasy of the rest of his life-because this feeling of ecstasy had appeared last night, and now he has restored peace.
As for drifting at sea waiting for rescue, in fact Charlie knows very well that the rescue team finds itself a high probability event. The only difference is the time. His supplies on the lifeboat are sufficient to support him for many days, so it will be a little later for him. It's not a big deal.
Charlie is now thinking about how to deal with the curiosity of the public and the media after returning to the United States. After all, he went to sea this time. Everyone except him was killed. A tragedy.
After sitting on the rescue helicopter and strapping on his seat belt, Cha idealed that he had just received a satellite phone call while he was being hoisted from the lifeboat with the help of rescue team members.
At that time, he was hanging in the air with a hovering helicopter above his ears, and his ears were filled with whistling winds. He couldn't hear the sound of the phone at all, but most of the people who knew he could make this call were He is close to him, so he tells the other party to call back when he is convenient, and after that he hangs up-after all, in that case, he can't hear what the other party said.
Now that he has settled down on the helicopter, the pilot has already returned by the helicopter. He will soon be able to board the rescue boat and return to the United States. It can be said that he is now basically safe.
Charlie was relieved, so he picked up the satellite phone and was ready to check who made the call.
The satellite phone showed that the call was transferred through his personal cell phone, that is, the other party called his personal cell phone, because no signal was automatically transferred to the satellite phone.
Private phone numbers, even fewer people know.
Charlie naturally also paid more attention. He looked at the incoming call number recorded by the satellite phone, but found that it was a completely strange number, not even a common number segment in the United States.
When Charlie saw the number, he froze for a while, then got excited and thought of a possibility.
He quickly dialed a number from a satellite phone. This was the phone number of his trusted friend, Pilt.
"God! Boss, are you okay now?" Pilt asked excitedly after answering.
Charlie had no thought or nonsense, and said directly: "I'm already on the rescue helicopter, and now you have something to do with me, 100,000 urgent!"
"Master, please tell me!" Pilt said quickly.
"My side is temporarily unable to connect to the Internet. You can help me find out where a phone number belongs!" Charlie said.
"No problem! Please give me the number!" Pilt said.
"8613 ..." Charlie stopped after a few digits and said solemnly, "Peerte, remember, don't look up any information on this number, just confirm where you belong! In addition, don't ask Anyone leaking this phone number! "
"Understand!" Pilt said without hesitation.
Charlie then reported it to Pilt.
In fact, when dialing international phone numbers in China's mainland area, international dialing codes starting with 86 will be displayed, but this is a large number of numbers connected together, and Charlie is busy with business every day, and will not remember China's dialing code. So he couldn't confirm, so he asked Pilt to check it first.
After reporting the number, Charlie said, "You can check now, don't hang up!"
"Boss, I'm already inquiring ..." Pilt opened the search engine on his laptop and searched. "Finded it! Boss, this number is a number in mainland China. Only calls from mainland China can make international calls." For long distances, the international dial code of 86 will be displayed in front of the number. "
"God ..." Charlie couldn't help whispering after listening.
Pilt was startled and asked quickly: "Boss, what's the matter?"
"It's okay! Let me tell you when I come back!" Charlie said, "Remember, the number I asked you to check must be kept strictly confidential, and it's best to forget it from now on!"
"I see, boss!" Pilt said.
Charlie hung up the phone, then immediately found the number Xia Ruofei had dialed in from the satellite phone, and dialed back the first time, while stroking his forehead, he said to himself: "Damn! I even hung up his phone, it ... "
The rescue team sitting opposite was shocked when they saw him, thinking that Charlie was uncomfortable, and quickly asked, "Mr. Koch! What's wrong? May I help you?"
Charlie Koch quickly waved his hand, put his index finger on his lips, and made a snoring gesture to the rescue team member, because he heard the ringing of the other party's cell phone on the phone.
...
Xia Ruofei was still on his way to Iswatlan at this time. After the phone vibrated, he took out a glance and found that it was an unfamiliar number, and a long series of numbers seemed particularly strange-he just called Charlie He left his cell phone number, and Charlie called back using a satellite phone.
Xia Ruofei usually uses this number rarely. It is only used when he uses summer identity. He is usually turned off most of the time. Few people know this number, so his first reaction was to harass the phone. After all, this number looks like the kind of information desk number changed by software.
But after thinking about it, he answered: "Hello, who?"
Charlie was sitting on the rescue helicopter. At this time he had connected the satellite phone to the noise-cancelling headphones on the helicopter. Fairy voice.
Charlie could not help but trembled and asked, "Hello, this is Charlie Koch, may I ask if you are Oriental ..."
Speaking of this, Charlie stopped abruptly, because there were still several rescue members in the cabin, and he must not have leaked out the things of the Eastern Fairy.
When Charlie was in a dilemma, Xia Ruofei on the other side of the phone said directly, "It's me, you guessed it!"
Xia Ruofei immediately asked: "Are you inconvenient to speak now?"
Charlie hurriedly said, "It's okay! It's okay! If you have any instructions, just say so!"
Although the rescue team member sitting opposite him could not hear Charlie's words because of the loud noise in the cabin, he could see Charlie's cautious and respectful gesture secretly. Influence, and net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars, that is the absolute top man! Who else can make such a big man make such a humble gesture?
Charlie took a look at the rescue team across the road and subconsciously covered his mouth with his hands. He didn't want these people to see his mouth shape.
In fact, he does have some inconvenience now. After all, the things of the Eastern deities cannot be known by outsiders, otherwise he would not know if that deity would be unhappy. But at this time, the other party took the initiative to contact him by phone. Obviously, there was something for him to do, and it was not easy for him to say that it was inconvenient to speak now, and to contact him later.
In front of the immortal, where did he dare to have the slightest neglect!
But Xia Ruofei could hear it, and he smiled and said, "Charlie, I heard that there is a lot of noise next to you. You should have been rescued, now on the rescue plane?"
"Yes!" Charlie said respectfully. "Nothing can be hidden from you!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Let's do it! I'm not so anxious about it, just wait for your plane to land! You can find a place where no one is and call me back."
Charlie let out a little, and said quickly: "No problem, I just want to wait for you!"
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, and then hung up the phone directly.
On rescue helicopter.
Charlie held the satellite phone and was silent for a few seconds before he calmed down. He switched the noise-cancelling headset on his head to the mode of talking in the cabin, and then said, "Mr. Captain, please speed up your flight I'm in a hurry and need to deal with it immediately after landing! "
The captain quickly said, "Okay, Mr. Koch! I will fly at the highest speed as soon as possible!"
"How long can I expect to reach the rescue ship?" Charlie asked.
"It will take about 45 minutes to fly normally," the captain replied. "If you are in a hurry, I can try to arrive within half an hour."
"Very good!" Charlie Koch said, "If you can go faster in half an hour, I will give you a million dollars every minute ahead! Mr. Captain, fly back as far as you can ! "
The captain froze for a moment, then immediately said with some excitement: "No problem! Mr. Koch, please fasten your seat belts, and the comfort of the next flight may be reduced!"
"OK!" Said Charlie Koch.
Next, he felt that the nose of the helicopter sank slightly, and then his speed suddenly increased a few minutes.
For the rest of the voyage, Charlie Koch held the satellite phone in his hand tightly. He looked out of the porthole almost every few seconds, trying to see if the rescue ship appeared in sight.
Before the time passed, he felt the pressure increased by one point, because the Lord Fairy was waiting for him to call back! It's a sin to let the fairy wait for an extra second!
Finally, after flying for more than 20 minutes, Charlie Koch saw a rescue boat not far below the plane. The white "h" sign on the helipad on the deck was clearly visible ...
