Getting the best from Tarkov

Chapter 23: Escape with Beauty

After seeing Feng Caier coming out of the bathroom, Liao Fan told her his thoughts.

After listening to Liao Fan's words, Feng Caier felt that it made sense.

After all, it is 2022 now, not 2010.

It is better to be safe than sorry. Feng Caier took the initiative to arrange her air tickets and related documents.

Actually, there's nothing much you need to prepare. You can get a visa on arrival in Thailand. As long as you're not on a blacklist, entering the country is very simple.

The only trouble was that neither of them spoke Thai.

Fortunately, most Thais can speak a few words of Chinese, and the English penetration rate in Thailand is very high. Basically, whether it is a shopping mall or a restaurant, the waiters can understand English to a certain extent.

Although Feng Cai'er didn't speak English, Liao Fan did. His standard London accent had stunned many people in Tarkov.

While Feng Caier was booking the nearest flight, Liao Fan was also busy.

First, he rushed into the bathroom, took a quick shower, changed into new clothes, and then secretly logged into Tarkov using his computer to replenish the supplies consumed in the safe space.

Actually, there is nothing much to add, I just bought a lot of GP coins.

When you take it out, it's 30 grams of gold. It can be used as an emergency reserve, so if anything goes wrong, you won't be left without a penny.

After all, you are not allowed to bring too much cash when crossing the border.

"Xiao Fan, are you ready? We've already bought the plane tickets, and they're for 2 a.m. tonight. We have less than two hours left. We need to get to the airport as soon as possible."

"Everything is ready, let's go."

"Have you hidden your things?"

"Don't worry, sister, it's okay, let's go."

"it is good."

Due to time constraints, Liao Fan didn't have time to go back to the Antique Street to get his backpack. Now he could only pray that no one had gone there to clear the sewer recently.

To be honest, this is Liao Fan’s first time on a plane.

Following Feng Caier, we took a car all the way to Hongqiao Airport. Fortunately, we bought a first-class ticket. We rushed all the way and finally arrived at the boarding gate before takeoff.

Feeling the plane slowly taxiing onto the takeoff runway, Liao Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This was his first time committing murder and arson in the real world.

It would be nonsense to say that he wasn't nervous, but compared to him, Feng Caier was even more nervous.

Along the way, Liao Fan often saw Feng Caier taking deep breaths. Now that it was like this, Liao Fan could only pretend to be calm so that Sister Caier beside him would feel more at ease.

Feng Caier might have really been influenced by Liao Fan. Although her hands were shaking with nervousness at the beginning, she did calm down slowly later.

It was not until the plane took off smoothly that the two of them relaxed completely at the same time.

After smiling at each other, the two didn't say much.

There are so many people on the plane and it is not suitable for conversation.

Thanks to being in first class with free WiFi, Feng Caier took advantage of this time to start booking a hotel and airport pick-up services after landing.

This was quite novel to Liao Fan.

You should know that according to common sense, the use of mobile phones and other radio devices is not allowed on airplanes.

"Sister Cai'er, can I use my cell phone on the plane?"

"Oh, you're talking about that. As technology improves, most major airlines no longer restrict the use of mobile phones and computers.

However, due to the flight altitude, speed, and airspace issues, mobile phones have little signal. If you want to connect to the internet, you must rent the plane's own Wi-Fi, which is free for first and business class passengers.

It was as if the door to a new world had been opened. Liao Fan followed Feng Caier's example and connected to WiFi and checked the WeChat messages.

Well, for him, it makes no difference whether he is connected to the Internet or not.

Since it was a midnight flight, the flight attendants dimmed the lights in the cabin shortly after takeoff. In addition, he had just committed murder and arson, and had to destroy the evidence. As soon as the novelty wore off, he felt sleepy.

Seeing Liao Fan sleeping beside her, Feng Cai'er was speechless. How could he sleep at this critical moment?

Putting down her phone, she looked at the people around her. Recalling what happened in the abandoned factory, Feng Cai'er still felt it was a little unreal.

This is truly a mysterious man.

He is able to produce such exquisite antiques, and his skills and strength are not inferior to those of elite special forces.

I heard from Tang Yunong that you also have a secret and powerful intelligence network.

It really makes people want to explore it.

Not to mention Liao Fan and Feng Caier, half of Shanghai's police force has been mobilized at this time.

"Director Yang!"

"Well, Xiao Liu, what's the situation at the scene?"

"Reporting to Director Yang, the preliminary judgment is that this is a premeditated murder case. Six dead bodies were found at the scene.

According to the caller, he was out night fishing around 11 a.m. when he saw a light, but didn't dare go in and called the police. Nearby police arrived and discovered a car on fire. After calling the fire department to put out the fire, they discovered six carbonized bodies inside. "There's good news and bad news. Which would you like to hear first?"

"Don't talk nonsense, just say what you want to say."

"Director Yang, the bad news is that according to the forensic doctors and the trace medicine department, the six bodies have been completely destroyed. Not only is it impossible to determine the general information and cause of death of the deceased, but we can't even determine whether the deceased is a man or a woman.

The initial report from the Trace Investigations Department and the Fire Department stated that the fire was caused by arson, using a strong accelerant such as thermite. However, after the fire burned through, no useful clues were found.

"From the six bodies, no personal identification items, cause of death, or DNA information could be retrieved. The bodies had been completely carbonized by the fire, and some parts had even been reduced to ash."

"It seems the murderer destroyed the scene very thoroughly. What about other areas?"

"No, the comrades from the Trace Investigations Unit checked. Not only were the cars completely deformed by the fire, but even the ground nearby had traces of burns. So all the clues are gone. The cars themselves were also severely damaged. Everything from the luggage to the frame was deformed by the fire. We can't even determine what the two cars were or what color they were."

"Huh... Looks like another unsolved case... Are there any other witnesses at the scene?"

"This is good news, Director Yang. Since the incident occurred at night, and the reporter only saw a light outside the factory and didn't go in directly, no one outside knows what happened here yet. The surrounding residents are still thinking it was just an ordinary fire.

I have already arranged for someone to block the news.”

"Well, good work. This case is currently extremely difficult to solve. Don't let anyone know, as it will only add to the pressure. Go ahead and get busy."

"Yes, Director Yang!"

“Beep…beep…beep…Hello, Lao Wang, I’m at the scene, and the situation is very bad.”

...

"Uh, no no no, don't be afraid. It's not as weird as you think. There are currently no witnesses at the scene, so the news has been blocked."

...

"Oh, forget it. Six people died in total. The scene was completely destroyed. Everyone was reduced to ash. There are no clues at all. Not only are there people, but we can't even identify the car. It was completely burned. There's not even a decent surveillance camera around here. I guess it's a close call."

...

"Okay, don't worry. The news was blocked in a timely manner and won't be released. Everyone around here thinks it was a deliberate fire. Just guide them in this direction. Go tell the fire department to make sure nothing is leaked. And the Internet monitoring department, keep an eye on the latest online information. The Internet is too powerful nowadays, you have to be on guard."

...

"Okay, fine, hang up now. It's late at night and it's really tiring."

----------

This guy, once he falls asleep, time flies by.

When Liao Fan opened his eyes, the plane had already landed at Bangkok International Airport.

In order to facilitate airport pick-up, Feng Caier booked a five-star hotel, the Ritz-Carlton, which is very close to the airport. And for some unknown reason, the hotel only booked one suite.

Looking at the big bed in the bedroom, Liao Fan was a little at a loss for a moment.

Feng Cai'er was quite natural. She threw her backpack on the sofa outside the bedroom and walked straight to the bathroom.

"Don't get me wrong, Xiaofan. I've only booked this hotel for two days. We'll have to find a suitable place to stay today, or at the latest tomorrow."

Hearing Feng Caier say this, Liao Fan felt a little disappointed.

Throwing away the weird thoughts in his mind, Liao Fan sat down at the computer desk in the living room.

Since I have to find a new place to live, I naturally have to do some research. Fortunately, I still have a whole day.

Since the two people's purpose is to hide, they naturally cannot continue to live in Bangkok, the capital of a country. Looking through the map of Thailand, Liao Fan finally chose Pattaya.

As a tourist city, Pattaya has a huge flow of people. Not only is the population large, but the personnel structure is also very complex.

In Pattaya, you can see tourists from all over the world on the streets, with Chinese being the largest group. Therefore, Thais living in Pattaya will not pay much attention to two unfamiliar Chinese people, and the locals can also understand a sentence or two of Chinese.

In this way, Liao Fan and Feng Caier's seclusion here will not be conspicuous, and there will not be too many complicated problems in daily shopping and language communication.

Not only that, as a coastal city, Pattaya has many small islands nearby.

In addition to some of these islands being developed into tourist attractions, there are also many very small uninhabited islands that have been selectively forgotten.

Liao Fan was attracted by those uninhabited islands.

He plans to find a way to buy one of these uninhabited islands from the Thai government in the future and transform it into an underground hideout.

Perhaps inspired by a computer game, Liao Fan has recently become particularly interested in this kind of underground hiding place.

However, before purchasing an island, you must first find a way to get to know some capable people. Otherwise, with your current status, it would be a fantasy to want to directly purchase an island in Thailand.

He also had to find someone to represent him. Since it was a hiding place, he couldn't let anyone know that he bought it. This really made it difficult for Liao Fan.

Although he is now worth a small amount of money, in fact, his own circle of contacts is almost non-existent.

It was extremely difficult for him to find someone who could talk to the Thai top leaders and replace him.

After thinking it over and over and failing to come up with any good solution, Liao Fan could only settle for the second best and buy a property on one of the islands that had been developed into tourist attractions for temporary use.

Finally, Liao Fan chose Koh Lan as the place where he would settle down for the next period of time.

This island is not far from the Pattaya pier. It takes about three hours to go back and forth by boat. If you choose it as a temporary hiding place, you only need to get a yacht. If you find something wrong, you can quickly return to the shore or evacuate to the deep sea.

After setting the goal, Feng Caier also finished taking a bath.

Looking at Feng Caier coming out of the bathroom wrapped only in a bath towel, Liao Fan felt his throat a little dry.
