Escape Road Part17 Junchansan


Captain of smuggler was so veteran who was near seventy, but his cruising skill was so sure, he had an idea as itinerary to San Juan, coz navigating from Mat’s home nation to Puerto-Rico takes a odd energy coz that ship must go against sea current then he must detour in a route taking from the departure point as he embark two runaway couple to destination with as the first riding on the current direction proceeding to West, and circling ship around along to left (west) to South more to West and not taking Haiti and Dominica Republic territorial seas, evading them and with enough detour and gradually contacting to Puerto-Rico with to right(East) and riding on sea current naturally to Puerto-Rico island, at the matter of fact they must leave that island once, then contacting again, only this navigation could economize the time schedule, he knew so well, also that route only could dodge the chase by policing teams with Coast Guard of any nations and their tough watch or observation. And more they must take the route detouring for evading any watched by them but also the current stream and they must once cut sea current vertically but as much as possible taking advantage of its current direction and suddenly shift to natural current direction detouring around far West of Puerto-Rico and aim to San Juan.


But his ship was made in Japan as save energy with diesel engine distributed role, but not so bigger one, for making itself not so impressive coz their mission was illegal then, his cargo ship was officially the aim to transport the exported Blue Mountain coffee beans, or sometimes rums, but truly loading true object’s cannabis, also known as marijuana or any other raw materials of assorted drags under the official loads with small but so enough capacity secret closet under hold Mat and Mrs. Elegance was contained.


In this connection, Dionisius Superintendent uses smartphone publicly namely for formal mission, one made in the US. but his private and black illegal usage, he used one made in China, and he liked to do it more than official using the US one, but he formally needed to use it for diplomacy to the US.
Mat used Korean smartphone, Lily used the US one, Mrs. Elegance used Chinese one, terrorist boss Shocker used the Japanese one, each one arbitrarily chose their own usage.


But at that day, sea condition was never so tough, then smoothly Captain could take easy navigation, Mat and Mrs. Elegance’s home nation has the rains as from August to October, and recently bigger hurricane came to their homeland, with so miserable death toll. But their embarking ship was arriving at San Juan city area’s a little distanced private port as seashore adjoined dense depots, Captain and transporter’s syndicate officially lent for legal export but truly used for smuggling.


Puerto-Rico’s sunshine was so bright, of course Mat and Mrs. Elegance’s mentality to escape to an unincorporated territory of the United States must had made to be so to two. Noon was passed, in winter those areas are suitable for sightseeing and swimming.
Two was talking about this Christmas, they had forgotten that was so near, in desperate runaway but, two days after, this Christmas must come.
They were showing the forged passport handed over from the Captain in customs and after checked by a custom officer, they stepped the Puerto-Rico’s soil.
Mat asked Mrs. Elegance,
“Have you ever been here?”
Then, she replied soon,
“No, never, ever, I haven’t gone to any other nation except my one, I always was busy to sustain my husband’s mission until we married together.”


They consulted with each other about the schedule after arriving at San Juan, as their first action they decide to meet the lawyer, and for doing it, they must rent a car to the place they appointed to meet, they appointed to do him with Mrs. S smartphone with speaking first Mat and next Mrs., at this moment, the lawyer transporter and Captain of the ship introduced was skeptical to them, coz Mat’s presence was so unnecessary, if he was just the ordinary citizen, he must had informed to the police station or so, but he did never do so, moreover he was accompanied with other husband’s wife, but in circumstance the lawyer was heard the summary of two person’s this three days’ spending on the road, he was with some never so assured intuition to them as being in their own relation, but at the phone call, he was never asking about it anything, and just he made an appointment to meet that day, and Mat and Mrs. Elegance decided to meet him soon after arrival at San Juan, and the lawyer demanded them to call soon after the arrival, and at that moment, he promised to indicate them where they should visit and at the time, he suggested to meet together at properly distance area of main street or the whereabout his law office, then they decided to rent a car in this city’s side of the main street, checking the whereabout the location of its car rental car agency with smartphone.
Ordinarily syndicate’s terrorists are never targeting them only at the station or air terminal, these kinds of visible places, they try to target in invisible location, but simultaneously his office was also so visible to any police officers and soldiers checking them with profile photos corresponding each picture and real person’s it, then their lawyer suggested them to call him for being told by him of the place to meet together. And coz they had no idea of any geographic and any city areas’ situation, they decided to obey any advice by their lawyer.
Mat and Mrs. Elegance trusted him saying and thought that he could guide them to suitable place to meet together, and called him, then the lawyer,
“I do never ate anything until the early morning for my office routine work, then I want to have it after I want to meet you two.” said so.
Mat speaking with him and his company Mrs. Elegance on the road thought that their meeting lawyer must had advised so appropriately to them and obeyed his indication.


And before he expires the lunch, they tried to rent a car for going to meet him and they did so and Mat drove the car, and for a while, they drove only for seeing the landscape around the city with no sure destination and called him again, then he indicated the place to meet ,mutually using the navigation map soft with his smartphone and Mat obeyed his demand and with its map he drove the car to that place. His indicating place was never so far from the place they arrived at this San Juan but of course they could never walk there so easily, then they had an idea that their choice to rent a car was so right, but his driving area was never so dense of building but never so many people’s staying or living atmosphere was none, then they were gradually getting so afraid of being captured by syndicate never police concerned ones or troops’ them.
They but arrived at the lawyer indicating place soon.
