Chapter 200 The Doomsday Fortress Has Been Discovered
Xiao Li realized that Lin Muyan didn't like Rong Muchen, so he immediately took his men and left.
Rong Muchen was still determined to chase after them, but then he saw the Lin family's gate suddenly open, and three figures stood there, glaring at him menacingly.
Rong Muchen chickened out immediately, and with the pain in his buttocks becoming increasingly intense, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and give up this time.
During the journey, Xiao Li received a message from his grandfather. After putting down the communicator, he looked at Lin Muyan.
“Miss Lin, my grandfather is currently on a mission, so I may have to take you directly to his location to find him.”
Lin Muyan looked surprised.
"The old man is so old, why does he still have to go on missions personally?"
Xiao Li quickly explained, "It's not a dangerous mission. We just heard from the troops patrolling the city that they saw something extraordinary at a near-shore dock and wanted him to take a look himself."
Upon hearing this, Lin Muyan's heart skipped a beat. After observing the direction the car was traveling, she frowned.
[Good heavens, could it be that the Doomsday Fortress has been discovered?]
[They'll find out sooner or later. With such a large-scale operation and no secrecy surrounding it, how could they possibly hide it...?]
To everyone's surprise, when Lin Muyan arrived at the scene, she saw a thick fog that completely enveloped the sea surface, making it impossible for high-penetration lighting such as searchlights to see what was happening inside.
Lin Muyan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, guessing that this must have been done by the mysterious construction team that built the Doomsday Fortress.
However, at this time, the military had already arranged for a maritime patrol and planned to send a yacht over to check the situation.
Lin Muyan's eyes flashed, and she immediately said to Xiao Li:
"A thick fog appearing out of nowhere is never a good thing. There may be great danger lurking in the fog. Those people who go out to sea now may not return."
Xiao Li was startled upon hearing this, but quickly recalled what had happened in the mountains of Jiugang City. At that time, there was also a thick fog, which resulted in many mutated beasts appearing in the forest, and even some mutated trees that could move.
However, that mutated tree eventually disappeared and could not be found no matter what, so the matter was left unresolved.
Xiao Li hurriedly went to find Xiao Huaifeng to convey Lin Muyan's message.
Lin Muyan observed her surroundings and saw that the dock was already surrounded by a lot of special forces soldiers, and she even saw tanks!
Such a large-scale mobilization suggests that footage of the situation here has likely already been collected, and the fog must have appeared only recently.
Surrounded by a group of tall and valiant special forces soldiers, an elderly man with a full head of white hair stood out in the crowd, his figure not hunched over, but still as upright as a pine tree.
Xiao Li was talking to him when, a second later, the old man turned around and looked in Lin Muyan's direction.
The two exchanged a glance, both somewhat surprised.
Lin Muyan was surprised to find that Xiao Li's grandfather looked quite kind and gentle. She had thought that General Xiao would be a very dignified old man with piercing eyes.
Xiao Huaifeng never expected that the composed and capable Miss Lin, whom his grandson had described, was actually such a young woman, looking even younger than his grandson.
Xiao Huaifeng nodded amicably to Lin Muyan, then turned around with a smile on his face.
"You didn't tell Grandpa that this Miss Lin is so young."
Xiao Li was taken aback upon hearing this, and felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Grandpa, you didn't ask either."
Xiao Li, who is decisive and always speaks with a cold and hard tone, is a completely obedient grandson in front of the old man. If Lin Muyan saw his filial and docile nature, she would definitely be very surprised.
People really do have many faces. Filial people often behave like Xiao Li in front of their elders.
The maritime exploration operation was halted. Xiao Huaifeng had a military tablet in his hand, on which was playing the video footage recorded by the patrol team as soon as they arrived.
But by the time they rushed over, the sea was already shrouded in mist, which gave them the idea to go out to sea to investigate.
Just looking at the images, you can't really tell anything; all you know is that there's something resembling a fence that stretches as far as the eye can see on the sea surface.
This dock belongs to the Fu family of S City, and Xiao Huaifeng is also aware of the Fu family.
At this moment, in a corner not far away, Fu Sinian quietly watched Lin Muyan.
He originally went to the villa on the hillside to find Lin Muyan, but unexpectedly, Lin Muyan was taken away by the military.
Fu Sinian had heard of Xiao Li, but when it came to their status and position before the apocalypse, he knew he was no match for Xiao Li.
Seeing him getting close to Lin Muyan, Fu Sinian did not show himself immediately, but secretly followed them all the way, only to find himself here.
Only now did he remember that Lin Muyan had said she wanted to build a doomsday fortress, and he had helped her decide on the location. This must be the place.
This port and dock belong to the Fu family, and the military will be able to find him soon.
It probably won't be long before the old man from the Xiao family comes to him for a talk.
Before that, he needed to discuss a plan with Lin Muyan.
He had seen Lin Muyan's safe house before, and had no doubt that she wanted to build a doomsday fortress.
However, if the authorities take a liking to her doomsday fortress and insist on requisitioning it, or even demand control of it, then Lin Muyan will suffer a great loss.
How can one person's strength compare to that of the government and the military?
Fu Ssu-nien left quietly, as if he had never been there.
Lin Muyan was unaware that Fu Sinian had secretly witnessed everything. At this moment, Xiao Li led Old Master Xiao to her. The old man spoke clearly and loudly, yet with a very kind and approachable manner, saying:
"Miss Lin, I've heard so much about you, it's great to finally meet you."
Lin Muyan chuckled softly and looked at Xiao Li.
"So Colonel Xiao praised me in front of the old general?"
"Hahaha..." Xiao Huaifeng laughed heartily and gestured for Lin Muyan to go talk elsewhere.
"Lin girl, my rascal does often praise you. You can call me Grandpa Xiao from now on. You've saved my rascal more than once, so you're a great benefactor to the Xiao family."
"It's pitiful that my Xiao family has only had one son for generations, and now this brat can't even find a wife. It's tough..."
Lin Muyan: ...
Xiao Li's handsome face flushed slightly, and he looked around awkwardly, but dared not look at Lin Muyan.
Lin Muyan pretended not to see the old man's meaningful look and laughed it off:
"Colonel Xiao is so outstanding, he certainly doesn't lack girlfriends. Grandpa Xiao, don't worry, pressuring young people to get married is a big no-no, the more you press, the less likely they are to get married."
"Hahaha..." Xiao Huaifeng was amused by Lin Muyan again, but he understood a little better.
It seems his brat has a long way to go if he wants to win Lin Muyan's heart...
Lin Muyan has absolutely no improper thoughts about Colonel Xiao, such a handsome and rugged man. Her self-control is truly amazing!
Colonel Xiao was almost in tears. Even with his grandfather's hints, Lin Muyan hadn't shown any reaction, probably knowing she had no chance.
Sometimes, you have to be a little shameless; being too serious just makes you seem boring.
[Fu Ssu-nien: Just give me your ID card, okay?]
