The few people who had just relaxed immediately became tense again, struggling to hold on and look towards the source of the sound.

The light of the flashlight first shone on them. Several people subconsciously covered their eyes with their hands. Through the gaps between their fingers, they saw that there were nearly twenty people walking towards them quickly. Their clothes looked familiar.

"…We are from the forbidden area!" Zhang Shan was excited. "Great, we don't have to worry about how to get back to the mine, someone is here to pick us up!"

However, others were not in the mood to relax at all.

Guan Chen said in a deep voice: "Didn't you notice that they all had guns in their hands, and they were pointing at us?"

Zhang Shan was stunned.

Gu Shiqing watched intently, and when those people approached, he lowered his hand covering his eyes and said, "They are not here to pick us up, they are here to capture us and take us back."

Cheng Man was surprised: "Why is that? Don't they know who we are and think we are from other forces who broke into their territory with ulterior motives?"

Zhang Shan's eyes lit up when he heard this. This must be the case! He quickly got up from the ground and wanted to explain his identity to those people when they came over.

Unlike their vigilance, Lin Wu, who was still lying there, was exceptionally calm, with his hand on his face motionless.

Bo Yuting had been paying attention to her the whole time. Seeing her like this, he became a little worried. He dragged his tired body closer to her and called her in a low voice: "Lin Wu? Wuwu?"

Gu Shiqing, who heard the voice, also looked worried.

Lin Wu took a deep breath and slowly removed her hand. She had a blank expression on her face, her dark eyes were cold, and she stood up.

Bo Yuting wanted to help her, but she refused.

She sat still, not looking at the people approaching them, with no surprise on her face. She said calmly, "It's useless to tell them our identities. These people just discovered something strange here and knew someone was coming up from below, so they came to arrest us."

"What?"

Bo Yuting and Gu Shiqing heard this and looked surprised.

The next moment, those people came to them.

Zhang Shan was so happy to see his family that he didn't hear Lin Wu's words, nor did he notice anything unusual about the visitor. He hurriedly said, "I'm Zhang Shan, a former employee of Lord Kate! You've come just in time, take us back quickly. I have something important to report. Our mine has been..."

"So it's really you!"

One of the people who came suddenly stepped forward and interrupted Zhang Shan angrily.

Zhang Shan paused, "...what?"

The man stared at Zhang Shan, swept his unfriendly eyes over everyone, and asked with a sneer, "You are the ones who went down with that fake Kate and Jia Shen, right?"

Zhang Shan nodded blankly.

The man waved his hand and said, "Come here, take them down and bring them back to the mine!"

Zhang Shan: “???!”

"etc!"

Confused, Zhang Shan wanted to ask why they were arrested, but the man didn't give him a chance. The people behind him quickly held him down and took out a rope to tie him up. He was seriously injured and couldn't resist at all. He grimaced in pain and almost fainted.

Those people also went forward to tie up Lin Wu and others.

"No need for you, we will follow you back."

Lin Wu gave a cold look, and those who approached her did not dare to make a move. She propped herself up and reached out to Bo Yuting to pull him up.

Gu Shiqing looked at her, silently got up from the ground, and kindly pulled Lin Wu's friend, Cheng Man.

Guan Chen also stood up on his own.

The man didn't even look at them, "You have no say in this, tie him up!"

"Try to tie one up if you dare!" Guan Chen stepped forward and said coldly, "Look carefully at who I am!"

Guan Chen has been active in the international community for many years and often appears in public, so basically everyone in the underworld knows his face.

The leader was about to leave, but when he heard the words, he turned around and saw that it was really Guan Chen, his expression changed.

The men around him looked at each other, and finally looked at him.

The man held back for a long while before saying, "Take it away!"

It means not to tie it.

Guan Chen pointed at Zhang Shan again, "And him."

The man's face looked unhappy, but he finally followed Guan Chen's instructions and asked people to untie Zhang Shan. They also quietly pointed the guns in their hands upwards to avoid accidentally hurting anyone and offending Guan Chen.

So Lin Wu and the others supported each other and followed those people.

Because of Guan Chen's presence, the people in the forbidden area did not dare to rush them, but they were walking too slowly. Finally, they could not stand such a slow pace, so the leader simply asked his men to carry them.

Lin Wu and the others who were implicated did not show any mercy.

In the end, the people from the forbidden area who were supposed to come to arrest people aggressively turned out to be the ones who carried the people back comfortably without saying a word. This scene made the leader's face turn green.

Zhang Shan refused to give up, and asked with all his strength: "What's going on? Why did you arrest us? And you called me a fake? Did you...find out that Lord Kate and Lord Jashen at the mine were fake?!"

After the last sentence was uttered, Lin Wu and the others looked over.

Especially Gu Shiqing, he frowned.

How did they find out it was fake? He had clearly pretended well before, so that was why the forbidden area hadn’t discovered it.

The leader sneered: "You will know when we return to the mine. You dare to cheat us in the forbidden area. You are so bold. You are tired of living!"

Seeing this, several people stopped asking questions and closed their eyes to take a rest.

Unexpectedly, the place where they came out was far away from the mine base, in a very remote location.

The people who came to arrest them drove for nearly an hour before finally arriving at the station.

After a while, several people found something wrong.

Unlike the empty mine when they went down, the mine was now heavily guarded, and the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. Inside and outside, there were well-equipped guards arranged by the Forbidden Zone. It was no exaggeration to say that even a fly could hardly fly out! The car slowly stopped and finally stopped outside a large tent.

"We're here, let's go!" said the leader.

Lin Wu and his companions got off the car and were taken into the tent.

The leader looked at them coldly and warned them, "You just stay here and don't move around! Don't blame me for not reminding you. Once you go out, you will be shot to pieces by the people around you!"

He waved his hand, and the people behind him stepped forward quickly, taking away the backpacks of Lin Wu and the others, as well as all the daggers and knives that could be seen with the naked eye. Since Guan Chen was present, they did not dare to search them too much, and only made sure that they had no usable weapons on them.

The situation was unclear, and Lin Wu and the others cooperated with their actions.

As those people were about to leave after collecting their things, Bo Yuting suddenly spoke up, "Wait, we are all seriously injured, as you can see. Find us some good doctors to treat our injuries. Our wounds may need stitches, too. Don't forget to bring enough anesthetics and medicines."

The man was shocked by Bo Yuting's natural and unpretentious request: "You are now prisoners of our forbidden area! You have caused us heavy losses this time. It's good enough that we don't cause trouble for you for the time being!"

The implication is: How dare you bring this up?!

Bo Yuting didn't say anything and looked at Guan Chen, who was the most useful person now.

Guan Chen cooperated and took a step forward.

That person: “…”

Fuck! (End of this chapter)
