Chapter 408, Light and Darkness
Wenwen's words left everyone silent.
A ship that relies only on a captain who seems unreliable and a nautical chart, no one knows where it will go.
Having just experienced all that has happened before, everyone doesn't want to embark on another unknown journey. This is a very realistic problem.
"As you please." The person who had been in charge of the care said, "Anyone else want to get on board? The boat is about to leave."
"I, I don't want to get on the boat either." Another person named Zheng Hao also spoke slowly.
He raised his hand to adjust his glasses and looked at Wenwen shyly.
If Wenwen doesn't leave, he doesn't want to leave either.
"Okay, bye." The person who was in charge of care said this and called on the crew to prepare to set sail.
"Wenwen, Zheng Hao, why don't you come with us? After all, there are so many of us!" Someone couldn't help but remind them.
In any case, there is enough food and water on the ship, and it would be very dangerous if the supply on the island was cut off.
"I, I'm scared." Wenwen shook her head and took two steps back.
Standing on this island is at least a piece of physical land, but if you step on that ship, everything will be unknown.
"I..." Wenwen wanted to say some words of blessing, but she felt a pain at the back of her neck.
"What are you afraid of? You won't be afraid if you knock her out." Kong Xiyan knocked Wenwen unconscious and handed her to the person who was in charge of her care: "Take her up."
"Yes." The man answered and carried Wenwen onto the boat.
"Wenwen!" Zheng Hao was also dumbfounded: "This..."
"What? Are you scared too?" Kong Xiyan looked at Zheng Hao and raised her hand: "Do you need my help?"
"No, no need." Zheng Hao shrank his neck. "I wanted to get on board, but I was worried about Wenwen..."
"Go ahead, great lover." Kong Xiyan smiled and waved her hand.
I watched Zheng Hao run onto the boat and tripped over the stairs on the way.
Clumsy.
"Let's go." Kong Xiyan took out a flashlight and waved it rhythmically at the captain five times.
The latter immediately understood Kong Xiyan's secret signal and turned on the lights on the boat a few times.
Then the ship sailed away from the island.
Standing by the window, Professor Shen looked at Kong Xiyan on the shore, sighed lightly, and shook his head.
"Professor Shen, what's wrong?" Zheng Hao looked at Professor Shen with some uneasiness: "Are you worried too?"
"No, I just regret not teaching her in a more tactful way." Professor Shen retracted his gaze: "She is the most talented student I have ever seen. She...ah..."
It's too late to regret now. If he had been more patient at that time and cared more about her talents and misguided ambitions, perhaps he could have led Kong Xiyan to go further.
I wouldn't have been locked up in that strange laboratory for so many years.
The feeling is a mixture of all five.
"Professor Shen..." Zheng Hao hesitated and finally sighed: "Wenwen is still unconscious, I'll go see her."
"Yeah." Professor Shen nodded and looked into the night again.
Watching the ship sail away, Kong Xiyan took out her phone and dialed Luo Zhenxuan's number: "How is it?"
"Followed." Luo Zhenxuan's eyes fell on the laptop screen: "Three tails."
"Let them continue to follow me, and tell me when they take further action." Kong Xiyan curled the corners of her lips.
It seems that the other party has also made multiple preparations.
"What about you?" Luo Zhenxuan's eyes moved slightly: "It's almost time to start."
Outside the window, the fireworks show was at its most lively.
It's perfect for doing something amidst the noise.
"It's almost there." Kong Xiyan put one hand in her pocket and said, "I'll tell you later."
"Okay." Luo Zhenxuan lowered his eyes and said, "Be careful."
"Don't worry." Kong Xiyan responded before hanging up the phone.
He jumped onto the nearest reef nimbly and looked into the distance with squinted eyes.
The ship had disappeared without a trace and no direction was visible.
"Miss, let's evacuate first." The person in charge of care asked Kong Xiyan for permission and then evacuated all the people there.
Soon, Kong Xiyan was the only one left around.
The waves hit the sea with the help of the night wind, and the sound of waves became louder and louder.
The person taking the photo feels nervous.
Amidst that sound, there was another sound of tiny footsteps approaching from afar.
Kong Xiyan narrowed her eyes slightly, jumped off the reef, and disappeared into the night.
It was an elite team of twelve people. They moved quickly and lightly. After landing, they dispersed immediately and gathered at the destination at the same time.
Kong Xiyan narrowed her eyes slightly and looked not far away: There is another person there.
Never mind, let’s chase those twelve people first.
Solve them one by one, quickly.
"Xiyan." That person spoke first: "You are here, right?"
Hearing this voice, Kong Xiyan rolled her eyes and jumped down from the tree: "Meng Xichao, it really is you."
"What are you talking about? I came to see you." Meng Xichao smiled and walked towards Kong Xiyan: "I brought you barbecue and beer. They're freshly grilled. Would you like to try some?"
"I reminded you that the Kong family is my bottom line." Kong Xiyan ignored Meng Xichao's greetings.
"Xiyan, even if we ignore the long-standing friendship between the Kong and Meng families, and only consider our relationship, there's no way I'd attack the Kong family!" Meng Xichao showed a helpless expression: "I... just want to get the things from the lab."
"That laboratory is indeed related to you." Kong Xiyan raised an eyebrow: "Did you kidnap Professor Shen?"
"I was still studying abroad at the time, so I didn't have time to care about Professor Shen and Professor Wang. I just recently received an anonymous order asking me to take some things away from this island." Meng Xichao picked up the can of beer: "Look, we drink ours and they take theirs, how great is that?"
"No." Kong Xiyan crossed her arms and said, "This island was given to me by my Third Uncle and Zhian. Everything on this island belongs to me. You want to take my things? Meng Xichao, this is your first day meeting me?"
"Hey...with your temper, I really can't do anything about you." Meng Xichao pretended to be embarrassed, then put the beer and barbecue aside and walked towards Kong Xiyan step by step. He put his hand inside his suit as if to take something: "Then...how about talking about money? Even if I bought it from you, I'll give you a check and you can fill it out however you want."
"You bought it from me? What? Your life?" Kong Xiyan smiled and put the gun to Meng Xichao's chest: "Meng Xichao, give me your micro-bomb remote control, how about I leave you with an intact body?"
"Xiyan, you're being naughty again." Meng Xichao didn't stop and took out a miniature bomb remote control and a stack of checks from the inside pocket of his suit: "Choose one of the two. Pick one."
He never likes to make choices.
He prefers to leave the choice to others.
Merciful Lord, unable to bear to see the world sad, left us with the simple choice between light and darkness.
However, people in the world always yearn for light while moving towards darkness step by step.
So sad.
