Who are you?
Fu Wan took two steps back, and Wangcai jumped out of the car, looking at them warily.
“We mean no harm. Miss Fu, your brother will be safe if you come with us.”
The two men kept repeating the same two sentences.
"What proof do you have that my brother is in your hands?"
The two men exchanged a strange smile, and then one of them pulled a small piece of cloth out of his pocket.
"This looks familiar, Miss Fu, doesn't it?"
Fu Wan glanced at it indifferently, but her heart was in turmoil.
That's the fabric of the clothes Fu Ming wore today.
Look at the edge of that piece of cloth; it was clearly torn off by someone.
Moreover, there were traces of Ye Xiaocui's previous sewing on that piece of cloth.
"Ms. Fu, please rest assured, we mean no harm. Our boss values your abilities."
Just then, Boss Fu, who had gone to check the public restroom, also came out.
"Ah Wan, that's strange, your brother isn't in the outhouse. Hey, who are you people?"
Boss Fu's face immediately turned serious, and his sharp eyes scrutinized the two strangers.
“Ms. Fu, my boss said that if he doesn’t see you in ten minutes, he can’t guarantee what he might do to Mr. Fu.”
Seeing that Fu Wan still hadn't made a move, the person opposite her couldn't help but issue a threat.
Fu Wan gritted her teeth and immediately mustered her courage to say, "I'll go with you."
Regardless, Fu Ming was indeed missing, and she had no choice but to go and check on his safety.
If they really are from the island nation, then it's simply what Xue Qing said about wanting to go to sea on their own. Since they need her help, they probably wouldn't dare to do anything.
"Ah Wan, what exactly happened?"
Boss Fu stood in front of Fu Wan, and if his eyes could kill, those two short ghosts would probably be dead a hundred times over.
"Father, they said they invited my brother over as a guest, so they want me to go and see him too."
"Take Wangcai home first, we'll come back after we're done visiting."
After saying that, she turned her back to the two men and whispered to Old Master Fu, "Call Sun Shaoping. It's that Japanese guy Xue Qing brought."
The words were spoken softly and quickly.
Boss Fu heard it clearly, but he was still a little worried.
"Dad will go with you!"
"Our boss only invited Ms. Fu."
Fu Laoda was so angry that he clenched his fist and was about to throw it.
Fu Wan quickly stopped him, "Dad, take Wangcai back first, we'll be fine."
At this point, the fewer people sent, the better. Besides, Boss Fu also needs to inform Sun Shao-ping.
After Fu Wan finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the two men. Fu Laoda was about to take Wangcai to the police station, but Wangcai followed closely behind Fu Wan and refused to leave.
"Wangcai, go back!"
Fu Wan scolded softly. It wasn't that she didn't want to bring Wangcai, but Xue Qing's temper was unpredictable. He might not be good at people, but he might be different with dogs.
Upon seeing this, Boss Fu rushed forward and hugged Wangcai. After watching Fu Wan get into the car parked by the roadside, Boss Fu pulled Wangcai and rushed to the police station as quickly as possible.
The islander lives in a county town; the police station couldn't possibly be unaware of him. Besides, the police station is the most suitable place for him to call the camp.
Fu Wan sat in the car, watching it drive around several alleys before finally stopping in a secluded courtyard.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Fu Ming sitting by the door.
"elder brother!"
Fu Wan called out before realizing something was wrong. Fu Ming didn't respond at all. She hurried forward and discovered that Fu Ming's eyes were closed.
What did you do to my brother?
In response to Fu Wan's question, a voice suddenly came from inside the door.
"Miss Fu, please don't worry. Mr. Fu is fine. He's just tired and needs to take a nap."
Fu Wan looked over at the sound, and the person next to her pushed the door open. Only then did she see the Japanese man she had seen at the auction sitting cross-legged at the table drinking tea.
"Who are you?"
Even though she knew the man's background, Fu Wan pretended not to know.
"Miss Fu doesn't need to worry too much about who I am. You can just call me Jiujing."
Where is Xue Qing?
Jiujing downed the tea in his cup in one gulp. "Xue Sang is still on her way. I heard back in the capital that Miss Fu is a very good swimmer."
Decades ago, my ancestors lost some items in the waters near your village. So I'd like to ask Miss Fu to come with us tonight to look for them.
Fu Wan chuckled, "Is this how you islanders ask for help?"
Despite being mocked by her, Kujiro Koichi remained unperturbed and got off the tatami mat on his own.
“I didn’t want to do this either, but Xue Sang came with me yesterday, and I was watching from the car. Miss Fu didn’t want to give him that face.”
So I thought that if Mr. Fu were invited along, Miss Fu would definitely not refuse my request.
Tsk tsk.
Even though the two countries have established diplomatic relations, Fu Wan still couldn't help but sigh that islanders, from ancient times to the present, have always been disgusting.
"So, Miss Fu, have you accepted my invitation?"
Fu Wan rolled her eyes at him. "Do I have any room to refuse?"
"I can help you, but you have to release my brother first."
Kujiro Koichi waved to the person next to him, "We can't release him now, but waking him up is no problem."
After he finished speaking, someone waiting nearby took a cloth from somewhere and covered Fu Ming's face. Fu Ming woke up in less than two minutes.
Upon seeing this unfamiliar environment, Fu Ming instinctively shouted, "Awan, run!"
Fu Wan untied the rope from his hands. "Brother, that's enough."
Running away now is not a realistic option.
It would be better to shatter the dreams of these islanders tonight.
She wasn't wrong before; Kujiro Hiroichi and Xue Qing had indeed come for the sunken ship.
Going to the sea is good, but Fu Wan is afraid they won't go out to sea.
With her own abilities, the sea is where she truly shines.
Seeing that Fu Wan had no intention of running away, Kujiro nodded in satisfaction and turned around to have someone arrange a room for Fu Wan and Fu Ming to rest.
As soon as they entered the room, Fu Ming eagerly asked, "Awan, what exactly do these Japanese people want?"
Fu Wan gestured for him to be quiet, and the next second, Xue Qing's furious voice came from outside.
"You kidnapped someone in broad daylight in the county town. Jiu Jing, are you insane?"
Jiujing remained calm. "Don't worry, Xue Sang. This place is very remote. The police won't be able to find it easily. We'll wait a few more hours, and then we'll head out to sea as soon as it gets dark."
"Once we get what I need, we can return to the island nation directly by sea without any problems."
Xue Qing was so angry he almost laughed. "With you making such a big fuss, I'm afraid you'll be spotted by those people at the camp before you even leave international waters!"
"Don't worry, I have diplomatic status, they can't do anything to me."
Now, all I want to do is fulfill my family's mission and find that thing.
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan and Fu Ming exchanged glances. That thing was most likely the Imperial Seal of the State that had already been sent to the central government!
In other words, they really didn't know that the Imperial Seal wasn't at the bottom of the sea!
