Chapter 74: Fighting Together
Even though they are comrades who can fight together, there are differences between men and women.
What's more, it's even worse when a female comrade like Chen Zhuyi is completely untrained and can't even fully control her own expressions. What she is thinking can be seen by others at a glance!
"But now, you can't find a more suitable person. If you temporarily replace someone at this moment, it will only make it more suspicious. So, no one except me can go in, right?"
Chen Zhuyi's words were both logical and left Huo Jinzhi speechless. Apart from her, it was indeed impossible for anyone else to approach the cruise ship.
Not to mention the inability to explain the personnel, the mere fact that it would easily alert the enemy made them afraid to act.
Besides, with so many things happening now, it is somewhat difficult to find a suitable female comrade on short notice.
"Let's proceed with the plan as usual. I believe... you can rescue us all in time." Chen Zhuyi patted Huo Jinzhi's shoulder and said this. There was a bit of purity and pure trust in his bright eyes, which was very moving.
All the worries in his heart turned into determination at this moment. Huo Jinzhi also believed that Chen Zhuyi was definitely not a weak and useless woman. She would not just sit there and freeze while waiting for someone to rescue her.
"We will definitely bring everyone home." Huo Jinzhi said, but his eyes were clearly looking at Chen Zhuyi. This was the only person he wanted to bring home.
So, after lunch, Chen Zhuyi went down into the cabin by herself, and the guard who was on duty in the morning let her in with a smile on his face.
"If you don't come out later, will you look for me?" Chen Zhu turned his head, put his fingers on the soldier's shoulder and smiled softly.
She was born with fair skin, and now in this dress, she looked a bit noble, like a charming fairy, and she captured people's hearts in an instant.
The soldier's eyes almost popped out, and he nodded repeatedly. Then he suddenly thought of something and said with some concern, "Rather than asking me to go in and find you, it would be safer for you to stay outside. I will help you find what you want."
"Is it really dangerous in there?" Chen Zhuyi did not agree with his suggestion, but changed the way he asked the question.
These soldiers guarding here must know the inside story, but they are unwilling to make it public and do not want the matter to be exposed.
"It's just a way for some people to get rich. If you block their way, there will be many dangers. I don't want you to take risks." The soldier said and took the initiative to walk towards Chen Zhuyi, and even got closer to her.
That intimate gesture gave Chen Zhuyi goosebumps all over his body.
She had known for a long time that foreigners were open-minded, but she had not expected that just these two sentences could lead to such a deep development!
"If I can come back safely, there will definitely be more stories between us. You are the most heroic and extraordinary man I have ever met on this cruise ship."
Chen Zhuyi took two steps back lightly, refusing the soldier's approach. There was a hint of disgust in his eyes. He turned around quickly and walked towards the depths.
The man didn't expect her to come back, and there was some admiration in his eyes. The little boy also straightened up and looked at the man with some pride.
"I want to adopt some children. My husband is in poor health, and we will never have children of our own in this life." Chen Zhu sighed and then whispered his thoughts.
There was a hint of suspicion in the man's green eyes, and the children that Chen Zhu saw retreated with some concerns, obviously unwilling to go with her.
"Ma'am, you can just call me Thomas. All the children here are willing to follow me, and each of them is a precious treasure, not a commodity that can be sold casually."
Thomas bowed his head slightly and saluted like a gentleman before telling the inside story.
From the very beginning, he had never thought of selling these children here. After all, even wealthy businessmen only had a limited amount of money. It would be better to raise them abroad where many people would like them.
Whether they are boys or girls, this oriental style can always bring a different kind of excitement to them, and many people have placed orders with him.
Those children are still eagerly waiting for their own freedom, but they don’t know that from the moment they leave home, everything in their life is no longer decided by themselves.
"Rather than rejecting me in such a rude way, the answer I want to hear is... there's not enough money." Chen Zhu sighed and took off the pearl necklace from her neck.
The round beads are crystal clear, and even in this dim environment, they seem to be shining, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Thomas was also a man with good eyesight. He could tell at a glance that the jewelry was worth a lot of money. A burning flashed across his eyes, but he still rationally restrained himself and had no urge to speak.
"I believe that with this pearl necklace, these children will get what they want. They left their original families because the environment was not good enough." Chen Zhuyi said, reaching out and grabbing the little boy's hand. His slender white fingers groped for the scars on his body, with undisguised pity in his eyes.
"I don't know what kind of family could be so cruel to these smart and clever children. They are worse than beasts!"
Her scolding was also sincere. She stared straight at Thomas and almost wrote down who she was scolding.
Gouzi felt a warm current flowing into his heart, and this warmth made him want to shed tears uncontrollably. Even at home, he had never felt such warmth.
"I want a few healthy children. I don't have too many requirements for them. As long as they can grow up healthily, that's enough." Chen Zhu looked at the tears flowing from Gou Zi, gently reached out to wipe them away for him, and then continued to speak to Thomas.
At this moment, her aura seemed to have changed. It was less gentle and more powerful.
"Anyone who can come and go freely on this ship must be someone with some connections. Guess... can I tear up your agreement?"
Chen Zhuyi did not explain this sentence, but just let Thomas guess it himself. Sometimes it is better to let Thomas guess it himself than to state the pros and cons directly.
The human brain is the most uncontrollable, and what comes out of the brain is much more terrifying than what she can say.
"These children are all mine. Are you threatening me?" Thomas said as he grabbed the dog back. He warned Chen Zhuyi with a ferocious expression and took out a homemade weapon, pointing it at her body.
