My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife-Chapter 841 - 840: No Hope (1/2)

The search spread out in a fan-shaped pattern from the incident site yielded nothing.

The first day ended fruitlessly.

At night, Yang Chen sat in the cabin, drinking beer, watching the distant sea, his face clouded.

At this moment, he increasingly regretted his decision at that time.

If he hadn't asked Ye Xin to stay back then, this situation wouldn't have occurred.

All night, Yang Chen watched the sea, unable to sleep.

The next morning, when Night Fire saw Yang Chen's appearance, he couldn't help but frown, "Boss, I demand you go rest immediately!"

"No need!" Yang Chen said hoarsely.

At this time, Yang Chen had lost his previous neat appearance, his hair was disheveled, appearing a bit greasy, with a stubbly beard growing, he looked somewhat haggard and unkempt.

His bloodshot eyes indicated he hadn't slept the whole night.

He hadn't rested the night before, either; even an iron man couldn't withstand this.

Night Fire said solemnly, "If you want more energy to search for everyone, you should rest well! If you can't even take care of yourself, how can you find others? I've never seen you like this before; you've never been a person lacking self-discipline. The more critical the situation, the more you should maintain your best state!"

This was the first time Night Fire spoke to Yang Chen in this way.

Yang Chen frowned slightly, and said coldly, "I'm fine!"

With that, Yang Chen lowered his head and walked out.

Yes!

He was never like this before, no matter how tough, he had to maintain his best state.

Even when surrounded by enemies in a swamp, he had to lie in the mire and keep his best condition, ready to counterattack.

But now he didn't know what was wrong; he couldn't control himself, his mind was all chaotic, and he couldn't rest at all.

Night Fire watched Yang Chen's back, his face full of worry.

Today, their task was to continue searching at sea.

Yang Chen sat at the command station, staring at the screen displaying the underwater condition.

At this time, Night Fire brought a cup of coffee over.

Yang Chen gave him a glance and sipped the coffee lightly.

This was instant coffee that Night Fire got from a crew member, something Yang Chen would never drink before. Even the finest Blue Mountain Coffee, if not brewed properly, would be hard for him to swallow.

Now, he couldn't taste anything, only felt it was somewhat hot.

Today they sped up the search and finished covering the remaining sea region.

When they reached the opposite shore, they still found nothing.

Yang Chen stood at the cliff's edge, looking at the vast coastline, feelings indescribable.

At night, Yang Chen and Sun Yue entered a room with several monitors.

"The interrogation has started, this is the interrogation material." Sun Yue placed a thick pile of documents in front of Yang Chen.

Yang Chen lowered his head and started flipping through, occasionally looking at the monitor's feed.

The information was utterly normal, covering all personnel information, work, family background, as well as awards and actions taken.

The reason these crew members stayed on the island was to clean up items to prevent investigation, as explanations would be difficult officially.

However, Yang Chen noticed that two people's testimony mentioned a purple light flashing during the explosion.

Yang Chen frowned and asked, "What model weapon did the enemy use?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Tomahawk M26," Sun Yue replied solemnly.

"Is there video footage?" Yang Chen asked.

"Well..." Sun Yue hesitated for a moment, then said gravely, "Wait a moment!"

With that, Sun Yue left the room.

Yang Chen put down the documents and watched the group being interrogated on the screen.

Suddenly, Yang Chen noticed that someone's expression seemed off.

Immediately, Yang Chen picked up the headphones, tuning into that interrogation room, listening in on their interrogation.

"You better tell the truth, or else you'll face consequences you can't bear!" the interrogator said coldly.

After all, the professionals brought in for this interrogation could see that the other person was lying in a glance.

"I... I really don't know anything!"

Bang!

The interrogator slammed the table, reprimanding, "Still not telling the truth?"

This finally intimidated the person thoroughly, and their psychological defenses completely crumbled.

"I... I was forced. Someone, someone said…"

At this moment, Sun Yue pushed the door open and entered, telling Yang Chen, "Found it, the footage has been sent!"

Yang Chen signaled Sun Yue to wait and continued watching the interrogation footage.

Sun Yue said, "No need to watch, this one is ours."

"Your person?" Yang Chen was taken aback, looking at Sun Yue in confusion.

"Check this first, I'll tell you about this person later." Sun Yue said.

Yang Chen nodded, took the computer, and clicked play, the explosion footage played immediately.

The explosion was glaring, but amidst the yellowish-white flames, there was no sign of the purple light described by those people.

Yang Chen watched it several times, then asked sternly, "Are you sure it's the same model? Why does it differ from what these people saw?"

Sun Yue said, "Yes, it's definitely this model!"

Yang Chen frowned, sensing something fishy.

"Here's this person's information and confession." Sun Yue handed over.

Yang Chen took the files and began to read.

Sun Yue continued, "This was someone I contacted through various channels, paid heavily to get access to you, as this is top-secret. Letting our leader infiltrate was only possible thanks to this person's help."

Yang Chen looked at the file and said, "This person isn't part of the leadership, how do they have such capability?"

Sun Yue said lightly, "No great capability needed, he's handling logistics, hiding something is quite normal."

Yang Chen also saw the references to the rear warehouse in the documents.

"As for the purple light, I suspect it was an electromagnetic explosion from your ship or something in the reefs causing it; there's no reasonable explanation yet," Sun Yue said.

Yang Chen finished reading the file and asked, "So you're saying these people are innocent?"

"At least they didn't do as you said, arriving at the scene before the others did."

Yang Chen didn't believe it, "Continue the investigations, until we find the person, don't let any of them go!"

After speaking, Yang Chen stood up and left the room.

Sun Yue frowned slightly, feeling that Yang Chen seemed different from the person she had met earlier, with a significant deviation in behavior and thought process.

Sunrise.

Yang Chen arrived early at the training ground, assembling everyone.

Night Fire watched Yang Chen's bloodshot eyes and fine stubble, with his brows furrowed.

No need to ask, he knew Yang Chen hadn't rested the day before.

Night Fire felt worried for Yang Chen.

He knew Yang Chen had mild OCD, disliking blood on him during battles, always keeping his shoes clean, changing clothes daily.

But now, Yang Chen's attire hadn't been changed in days; his hair unwashed, beard unshaven, he appeared somewhat unkempt.

Night Fire never expected that the always-strong Yang Chen would be so affected by this incident.
