Chapter 855 Their Ultimate Goal
Nie Yao also showed a relieved smile, and said to Li Jinxing beside her: "You can also rest assured, with Steve helping me, everything will be fine..."
"Of course I'm not worried about you. It's just that something happened to the officer Ted who was responsible for protecting you. The only thing I'm worried about now is your safety!"
Li Jinxing frowned slightly, his face showing worry. "Those guys obviously won't give up. They only made minor noises during your press conference before, and it looked like they were trying to divert attention!"
Nie Yao also understood Li Jinxing's worry. After a moment's silence, she smiled and comforted him, "No matter what, the archaeological base has increased security and more people have been dispatched to protect it. Nothing will happen for a while!"
She paused and said in a deep voice, "They sent a sniper to kill the officer who was protecting me, but they didn't shoot me directly. Maybe they didn't intend to kill me, so you don't have to worry too much..."
"Yes, I also think what Senior Sister said makes sense. If their target is not the cultural relics donated by Mr. Li, then their target may be our current archaeological project!"
Steve nodded in agreement and murmured, "She's one of the team leaders in charge of this archaeological project. I think they might want to capture her alive and get more information about our archaeological project from her!"
As Steve finished speaking, Li Jinxing frowned even tighter, shook his head and said in a deep voice: "If that's the case, it should not be underestimated!"
Nie Yao glared at Steve. If this kid doesn't want to talk, then forget it. She had finally managed to comfort Li Jinxing, and now that he said this, it would only make Li Jinxing more nervous!
Steve also received the warning look from the senior. He secretly stuck out his tongue and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I didn't mean to create tension. I just think that the boss hiding behind this is probably coming for this underground treasure. He's very ambitious and very cautious. We've just started digging now, and he probably won't show up until the end!"
Nie Yao also agreed with Steve, nodded and said, "That's right. This time their move is not big. The ultimate goal is obviously the final archaeological results. Our project has just started, and it is very likely that there will be a major discovery in the end. It will take three years, maybe even five years. They will wait forever..."
Li Jinxing was silent for a moment after hearing this, then slowly said, "So they won't take action during this period. Unless you make any archaeological discoveries, they will remain dormant in the background..."
Nie Yao nodded and answered without hesitation: "That's it!"
Steve nodded in agreement and said, "He's able to train so many men, and it cost him a lot of money, and he even calls himself Osiris. I think this guy must be the leader of a large tomb-robbing group. It's understandable that they lay dormant for ten years in order to carry out large-scale tomb robberies!"
"Steve is right. So even though we need to be more vigilant, there's no need to panic. Otherwise, we'll just put too much pressure on ourselves!"
Nie Yao smiled and held Li Jinxing's hand, whispering, "Li Jinxing, you don't have to stay with me all the time. After all, this project takes too long..."
Li Jinxing held her hand, lowered his head to look at her, and said softly: "Yaoyao, I promised you that I would stay by your side..."
