After struggling for a while, Chang Yin decided to pass the message on to Commander Kang first. If Commander Kang couldn't solve the problem, then he would go to his grandfather.
When Chang Yin led the team out, he brought a radio with him. The sheer variety of items in his spatial ring was impossible for him to describe clearly in just a few words. However, for the sake of accuracy, Chang Yin still emphasized the items that would be useful on the Southern Island, such as the warships and machine tools.
Commander Kang had just finished a phone call when his bodyguard came in with a piece of paper.
Commander Kang has been in a bad mood these past few days. Japan has been having a lot of trouble lately. Although Japan tries to cover it up, it can't stop the spies from all over the world. So the recent events in Guanqi County have been making headlines internationally.
As for Tang Yue's trip to Japan, it's unclear how someone with ulterior motives found out, or whether they learned it based on some other means. Commander Kang hasn't discovered any of this yet.
During her last trip to Kyoto, although Tang Yue felt she was keeping a low profile, her deeds still spread among the upper echelons of the military region.
Well, with Japan experiencing a series of incidents lately, some people have connected it to the young girl, and some are getting restless, frequently calling to probe her. Commander Kang has consistently denied that Tang Yue is not on the Southern Island. But they genuinely don't believe him.
To confirm their idea, they even mentioned coming to inspect the southern island. Commander Kang was really worried.
"What's up?"
"Commander, this is a message from Battalion Commander Chang."
Commander Kang immediately straightened his expression. According to the timeline, they should have been able to meet up the day before yesterday. Why were they delayed for two days?
Commander Kang would never have guessed that Chang Yin had actually met up with them just a few hours ago; it was Tang Dong who caused the delay. He reached out and took the paper from the guard; some of the classified information was beyond even the guard's ability to decipher.
When Commander Kang finally saw the contents of Chang Yin's message, he excitedly jumped up from his chair, slammed his hand on the table, and kept muttering, "Good, good, excellent! Hahaha!"
The guards had never seen Commander Kang so happy before. No, there was one time. It was when all the treasures in the warehouse suddenly disappeared. At that time, Commander Kang's first reaction wasn't happiness, but worry.
He was probably only happy after he heard that all the treasures had been transported to Kyoto. However, that time was far less joyful than this one.
Commander Kang had no time to think about anything else and hurriedly called to his guard, "Quickly, quickly send a message to Battalion Commander Chang and tell him to come back immediately."
"yes!"
The guards left, and Commander Kang paced back and forth in his office, a piece of paper in his hand. After the initial excitement, a host of other problems arose. This matter was far too significant for the Southern Island to handle on its own.
Furthermore, if China produces warships, shipbuilding technology, and high-precision instruments and machine tools that are too similar to those of Japan, Japan might connect their recent events with China.
Commander Kang couldn't help but sigh, "Wow, this little girl is so capable. But there's a lot of trouble too." Commander Kang had never heard the phrase "sweet burden" before.
After careful consideration, Commander Kang decided to report the matter to his superiors. If things went wrong, it could escalate into an international dispute, so they had to handle it with utmost care.
Chang Yin had no idea how Commander Kang communicated with his superiors, but he felt a headache coming on when he received Commander Kang's order. The reason was simple: Commander Kang had ordered him to immediately take the little girl back to the South Island.
He did want to go back immediately; he'd never been so eager to return to the South Island. However, it wasn't something he could simply do whenever he wanted. The little girl was currently in Japan; how could he bring her back?
Also, he hadn't gone to Zhougang to hand over the mission yet, Chang Yin reached out and rubbed his temples.
"Battalion Commander Chang, what's wrong?"
The sudden sound startled Chang Yin. When did his vigilance become so low? However, he already recognized the voice.
Are you alright?
Tang Dong looked up at Chang Yin with a grin, "Yes, Battalion Commander Chang, where's my dad?"
Chang Yin looked down at the child in front of him. In just a few days, why did he suddenly feel that he could not see through him anymore?
"You? Which floor are you on?"
Tang Dong chuckled and revealed his cultivation level to Chang Yin, which even Chang Yin, with his composed nature, found hard to accept. "Sixth level of Qi Refining?"
Tang Dong nodded, scratching his head a little embarrassedly, "Yeah, I just suddenly figured something out, and that's how it happened. I was quite surprised myself."
Chang Yin... He didn't know the word Versailles, but he could sense that the kid was showing off. Then he thought about it and felt better; the little sister was already so amazing, so it was normal for her to have an amazing older brother.
"Well, now that you're better, let's head to Zhougang."
"Alright. Battalion Commander Chang, has my dad gone to Zhougang?"
"Hmm." Chang Yin had just finished answering when the radio crackled to life again. Chang Yin looked at Tang Dong, "Can you control a ship?"
Tang Dong nodded. He and his father had taken turns coming over. "Okay, you can start."
Tang Dong didn't say anything and immediately got to work. Although he didn't know how long Tang Dong had been in a state of enlightenment, it must have been quite a while. He was very grateful that Battalion Commander Chang had been waiting for him at sea, so doing some work was only right.
However, he hadn't expected Battalion Commander Chang to have such good aptitude, already at the fifth level of Qi Refining. He must have been cultivating for less time than any of them, right?
Tang Dong felt a slight admiration in his heart. But he wasn't bad either, was he? Hehe. Following the directions on the dial, he quickly steered the ship straight towards the harbor.
Chang Yin received a message from Tang Yue. The message was brief, but still quite alarming. What did it mean that a group of controlled Chinese soldiers had been found?
