I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 889: Together with Corpses?

After hearing the woman's response inside, he pushed the door open and walked in, seeing the two of them sitting on the edge of the bed, seemingly discussing something.

"How's it going, is the situation with the old man okay?"

"Not bad, there shouldn't be any major harm, lighter than I expected. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to get out of bed in about ten days, so we really don't need to worry too much about it."

"That's good. Can we set off now?"

"Yes, indeed, we can set off, Yaru. This time it's quite dangerous, especially since we're looking for a contact. So, perhaps it's best you don't come along for now. Once we've securely handled the contact, we'll find a way for you to meet him face to face to clear things up. How does that sound?"

Before doing anything, Ye Chen needed to explain all this to Lin Yaru.

Because he knew that Lin Yaru was always thinking about this. If she didn't go, perhaps no one would understand it.

Lin Yaru, of course, understood this point. Now, they're going out to catch someone, and it seems their own words are of little effect.

The only thing is, if they find that person now, then maybe Lin Yaru can let all this go and follow them.

But for now, she could only wait here.

"Alright then, you two be careful. Contact me by phone if anything comes up, so that's settled."

After speaking, Lin Yaru stood up. Ye Chen looked at her and smiled slightly, seeing in her a resolute look. He and Anying quickly left the room.

After leaving, Ye Chen looked back at the distant villa, then turned to Anying, who just sighed helplessly.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem, or did the old man say something to you during your conversation?"

"No, he didn't mention anything, but I feel things are not as simple as we imagined, and many things aren't within our imagined scope." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"I don't quite understand what you mean by imagined scope. Weren't they just captured by these men? Of course, they're formidable. I always figured it must be complicated. But now, the other hand is controlled by him. If I want to break free, dealing with him might not be impossible."

After saying this, he suddenly seemed dazed, appearing troubled, unclear about what exactly he was trying to express.

However, he knew that by choosing to speak after leaving, he had his own thoughts and objectives.

Even though he picked up the pistol at that moment, everyone clearly knew he wouldn't fire. Because if he did, it would be a lifetime he'd have to account for.

"Can't say much more now. Anyway, things are not quite what we imagined. If we truly want to understand what's going on, we have to find the contact. I believe you can uncover more clues from him."

"Alright then, let's give it a try. You said they've already discovered their people were taken by us. After those people were taken, where are they hidden? Don't they consider these things?"

From Anying's perspective, it seemed like these people likely died by suicide. If he hadn't forcibly intervened, that woman might not have escaped either.

Thinking back suddenly, saving that woman was indeed a significant achievement. Otherwise, they wouldn't have obtained the clue they have now.

"Forget it for now. We must quickly get to that root cellar and start investigating around there. Also, should we go under the cellar?"

"If we want to be a bit quieter or more precise, below there is a good place."

"But being with those bodies?"

At this point, Ye Chen did seem hesitant.

No matter what, there were two bodies down there. If he had to squeeze in with them, he did feel somewhat nauseated, genuinely uncomfortable.

"No worries, we can stay outside or set up a temporary workstation. It's safer down there. We'll make decisions based on the situation on-site."

Upon hearing Anying's words, Ye Chen just nodded and then slightly closed his eyes.

He only hoped that this trip would yield the desired results, and that this matter would not be delayed further.

Meanwhile, those foreigners were again gathered in a dim, cramped room, having their first formal meeting since arriving in this city.

Though they had met before coming to this city, after arriving, it seemed they hadn't met, carrying out their tasks routinely instead.

This sudden mission to abduct the woman caught them off guard with its significant change of circumstances so quickly.

At their last gathering, there were six people present, but now, only three remained.

Another person's whereabouts were unknown, completely unclear where they might be.

"Sir, I think our primary objective now should be to rescue them quickly. I believe if they've been taken, they must hold some value, so they shouldn't be killed off so soon."
