Chapter 2069: Forces
Xia Jinyuan had told Ye Jian that Antonio was so powerful that even the government did not dare to provoke him. He was not lying at all.
The three people coming out of the port were unable to drive even though they had seen the cars prepared by the emba.s.sy. The entire row of cars, regardless of whether they were big cars or small cars, had their wheels locked. There was red spray paint that spelled out ‘Antonio’. It was a grand way of telling the owners of these cars that the person responsible for this was no other than Antonio.
“Abandon the cars and find the emba.s.sy.”
When White Crane saw the locks and red paint, he made a snap decision to find the emba.s.sy.
According to the agreement, a comrade would pick them up and they’d head to the airport together. Now that there was no one in the cars and the cars were locked, it was obvious that their comrade, Long Eagle, had also left.
The departure of Long Eagle undoubtedly told the three of them that the situation was dangerous and they had no choice but to leave.
Ye Jian, who was in charge of guarding, had already seen the five people who had just walked past them return from the front. The strong light that could illuminate 20 meters shone directly at them. She whispered, “Hide!” The three of them slid under the cha.s.sis of the car.
Most of the cars parked at the harbor belonged to tourists heading to the island to sightsee. These people weren’t serious enough to search underneath each car. They just kept sweeping around with their bright lights, looking for suspicious people.
The three people under the car watched as several pairs of big feet pa.s.sed by under their eyes. They only came out when the footsteps disappeared one by one.
Long Eagle had prepared a package in a black plastic bag and left it behind for them to find.
The three of them, who did not have time to open it to check, did not stay at the port anymore. They left silently. There was already pale gray daylight.
“The emba.s.sy made good preparations.” Azalea took a pa.s.sport out of the black plastic bag and waved it. “This will solve half our troubles.”
The pa.s.sports that the three of them had forged to board the plane were still on their bodies, but the photos were destroyed. Meanwhile, their rifles and other equipment had sunk into the sea.
Now, apart from a pistol, GPS device, dagger, and the set of clothes they were wearing, they had no other worldly possessions.
What the emba.s.sy had prepared solved the problem of traveling for the three of them.
There were bus cards, cash, cell phones, pa.s.sports, and entry cards. These would be enough for the three of them to travel across most parts of the city and head to the airport.
...
It was dawn, and the thin golden light broke through the clouds to illuminate the city where sin and beauty coexisted. The cars coming and going on the streets kept honking as they crossed the not-so-wide streets and arrived where they needed to go.
Ye Jian, who had changed her clothes, learned a little about the city she was in with the help of the convenience store clerk. Then, she came out of the convenience store with their breakfast—chicken rolls and hot milk.
Azalea and White Crane were waiting for her at the side of the road. One of them was wearing a black short-sleeved T-s.h.i.+rt, while the other was wearing a white short-sleeved T-s.h.i.+rt. At this moment, the two of them who were dressed casually did not have the sharpness of soldiers. They were just tourists coming and going on the main street. They were holding maps and gesturing as if discussing how to go from here.
“Little Ye, you’re out.” It seemed that all his attention was on the map. Azalea smiled and waved at Ye Jian.
White Crane, who was wearing a white short-sleeved s.h.i.+rt, looked at Ye Jian with a smile and whispered to Azalea, “I have good taste, right? Doesn’t Little Ye look good in this?”
“That’s right.” Azalea nodded. Ye Jian was indeed beautiful. She looked as clear and fresh as a young girl. Her eyes were innocent, and her smile was like a flower. She was so beautiful that she looked happy.
