Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In Doora, after receiving Shen Shuyi’s call, Qin Yingyue immediately contacted Lin Jingzhan through a special channel.

Time seemed to stretch on endlessly, as they were currently on Tilia Island and had not returned.

“What happened that you’re calling me at this time?”

“There’s trouble in Panem. Your son is currently carrying to kilograms of ore, and everyone abroad is looking for him. Come back quickly.”

Qin Yingyue’s voice was urgent. Facing matters concerning Lin Yi, she was just a simple mother, unable to control her emotions.

“Ore?”

Lin Jingzhan’s tone was slightly surprised. He was well aware of Lin Yi’s identity. As a member of the Central Guards Brigade, it was unlikely that Lin Yi was doing this in private.

Even if he was carrying it, he should have obtained it during a mission.

If that was the case, he would have many comrades by his side.

With the Central Guards Brigade’s combat skills and global influence, it might be a little dangerous, but not to the point where he would be in a desperate situation.

“Don’t worry about such a small matter.” Lin Jingzhan said indifferently.

“If he can’t even deal with those stinky fish and prawns, he won’t be able to achieve much in the future.”

Lin Jingzhan was basically letting Lin Yi do whatever he wanted.

Firstly, he didn’t have time to care for Lin Yi.

Secondly, in his opinion, as his son, if he still had to step in to take care of everything, what was the difference between Lin Yi and trash?

Like Lin Yi, Lin Jingzhan was a proud person.

Even when facing his own flesh and blood, he still maintained a strict attitude.

He could not accept that his son had become a piece of trash.

“It’s not what you think,” Qin Yingyue said.

“I heard from Shuyi that this operation wasn’t one of the Central Guards Brigade’s missions. Those ten kilograms of Bass ore were hidden on their cargo ship. He only discovered the problem when he went to deal with it. Then, lots of people from overseas rushed over.” Qin Yingyue said anxiously.

“He’s surrounded now. In Santa Clara, there are at least a thousand foreign personnel in the city. Moreover, the Meiguon officials seem to have interfered in this matter.”

“It’s not a mission from the Central Guards Brigade?”

Lin Jingzhan felt that something was wrong.

“He’s alone in Santa Clara?”

“There’s also another member of the Central Guards Brigade with him. We’ve lost contact with them now. Everyone is looking for him, but they haven’t found him.”

“Not bad. He actually managed to hide for so long.”

“I can’t believe you’re still smiling about this!” Qin Yingyue raised her voice. “Hurry up and bring him back. If anything happens to my son, I’ll have no reason to live anymore.”

“Look at you. Wiry can’t you relax? You can’t forget about me just because you have a son.”

Lin Jingzhan said helplessly,

“I’ll get Song Jinmin to bring some people over to take a look. This not a big problem.”

“Go on, hurry up.”

“Got it, got it.”

In Santa Clara City, time had slowed to a crawl. Soon, another day had passed.

For three days and three nights, the two of them did not eat or drink. They did not even dare to rest and just hid in place.

At first, the two of them were still optimistic about this matter.

They could even joke and talk to kill time.

However, after three days and three nights without food and drink, it did not matter how strong their willpower was, it had been ground down at this moment.

Lin Yi was fine. His family had been poor since he was young, so he had suffered more than Zhou Liang.

In addition, his standard and physical fitness surpassed Zhou Liang’s. Even though he had been starved for three days and three nights, his condition was still much better than Zhou Liang’s.

However, the latter was not the same. Putting everything else aside, just the fact that he had not eaten or drunk for the past three days had already made him listless.

“Are you okay? Can you hold on?” Lin Yi asked.

“This not a big problem.” Zhou Liang said, “I’ll just treat it as losing weight.”

“I think this might be time,” Lin Yi said softly and cautiously.

Just now, he estimated that it had been more than an hour since there had been any sound outside.

He guessed that the people guarding outside had already let down their guard.

It had already been three days. Even he would have stopped suspecting anyone of still be hiding here.

“Then I’ll go out and take a look!”

“Don’t move, I’ll go!”

In the sewer, Lin Yi quietly twisted his body and lifted the manhole cover a little, then observed the situation outside.

At around two in the morning, Santa Clara City became extremely quiet. The surroundings were pitch-black, as if it was enveloped in a blackbox.

The surrounding lights were even inferior to the starlight in the sky.

Lin Yi looked around, but he didn’t see anyone.

“Stay here and don’t move. I’ll go out and scout the area. Then, we can make a move.”

“It’s too dangerous.” Zhou Liang pulled Lin Yi back. “What if their people ambush you outside?”

“That can’t be helped. We can’t stay here forever. Even if we’re not caught, it won’t be long before the two of us starve to death. We have to think of a way to escape.”

“I’ll go with you.” Zhou Liang looked at Lin Yi and grabbed his arm tightly. His eyes seemed to be burning with fire.

“I’m from Team i. I’m not afraid of death!”

“I know you’re not afraid of death. If you didn’t have that much, I wouldn’t have recruited you back then. But now, you have an even more important mission.”

Lin Yi closed the manhole cover and stepped back.

Then, he took the ore tied to his body and handed it to Zhou Liang.

“I’ll leave the goods with you for now. When I go out, I’ll signal you. Be smart.”

The reason why he passed the ore to Zhou Liang was because Lin Yi wasn’t sure if there was an ambush waiting outside.

If that was the case, the ore would still be in their possession even after he died, so the mission wouldn’t be considered a failure.

“Noway!”

Zhou Liang grabbed the corner of Lin Yi’s shirt, his eyes red.

“If you die, I will fight with them to die together!”

Whack!

Lin Yi slapped Zhou Liang’s face.

“Now is not the time to play hero. These two ores carry Huaxia’s dignity and the status of the Central Guards Brigade internationally. We can’t afford to get embarrassed here. Stay here and don’t go out without my orders!”

Zhou Liang’s tears streamed down his face.

“Boss…”

“Stop crying. You’re such a sissy. You’re annoying me.”

After cursing, Lin Yi ignored Zhou Liang and carefully lifted the manhole cover.

Then, he grabbed his weapon and climbed out.

Lin Yi’s body was pressed against the wall, trying to hide in the shadows.

After moving ten meters away, he saw a small fork in the road ahead.

Lin Yi hid by the wall. His super hearing allowed him to hear people talking in the alley on the right.

He couldn’t hear what they were saying, but he could hear laughter. They must have let down their guard.

Given the current situation, it appeared that the area was likely sealed off.

An opportunity had presented itself, but it still seemed improbable to escape by force.

He could only outwit them!

Carefully, Lin Yi poked his head out and found two people standing at the entrance of the alley.

They were armed with heavy weaponry, wearing steel helmets, and their faces were covered with triangular scarves. They were both monitoring the surroundings and chatting at the same time.

Judging from his attire, he should be from an foreign gang.

Lin Yi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

Now that it was a critical moment, he had to be careful with every step he took. Success or failure depended on this!
