Chapter 1779 - Uneasiness
“Notify our local contacts, authorize full support, and provide Lin Yi with the firepower he needs.”
“Yes!”
“Also, reach out to our diplomatic channels to see if we can deploy our people there,” Lu Beichen instructed.
“This isn’t Tillia Island. The lack of weapons puts Lin Yi at a significant disadvantage. His combat effectiveness will be severely reduced. If we can’t get our people over there, their situation will be very dangerous.”
“I’ve already made the contacts, and the response 1 received is that Panem does not agree,” Liu Hong said, his fists clenched.
“So, I’ve instructed Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che to disguise themselves as tourists and slowly infiltrate the area.”
Lu Beichen did not say anything. Given the current situation, this was the only solution.
They were on the same side as the Meiguons, so they naturally wouldn’t let the Huaxia military just march in.
But Lu Beichen was more concerned about who did this.
He suspected the Wang family, but he did not have any evidence. It was impossible to accuse them.
A full 10 kilograms of Bass ore was a huge investment!
But what was their goal?
Was he just trying to stir up a conflict between the Central Guards Brigade and the foreign personnel?
Lu Beichen thought about it and felt that it was impossible.
He was more inclined to think that the other party’s target was Lin Yi.
Before this, he had learned from Shen Shuyi that there had been many problems with this project that had lasted for several months.
If something hadn’t happened to the executives of Lingyun Group, Lin Yi wouldn’t have rushed to Panem.
Therefore, it was very likely that the source of the conflict was Lin Yi himself.
Could this be the Wang family’s real target?
Yanjing, Wang Family.
It was dark outside the window, but the lights in the study were still on.
Wang Tingshan had a cigarette in his mouth. Wang Mian sat in his wheelchair and listened to Li Mi’s report.
“Master, the conflict in Panem has already begun.” Li Mi said.
“But the Central Guards Brigade sent Ning Che and Qiu Yuluo over.”
“Panem has restricted all air traffic. Can they still get through?”
“Air restrictions don’t take effect in real time. Liu Hong found a private jet and flew them over at full speed. They should be able to reach Panama before air control locks it all down.”
Wang Tingshan silently took a puff of his cigarette. “This guy has improved a lot over the years.”
“What do we need to do?”
“Those two women aren’t simple either. Get someone to stop them and cause them some trouble.” Tingshan Wang said.
“But don’t be so brazen. Just delay the process appropriately. The focus of the entire world is on Panem. Their combat strength is still not up to standard.” Wang Mian and Li Mi nodded. This was not Tilia Island. Their combat strength would be greatly reduced.
“How’s Lin Yi?” Tingshan asked.
“1 heard that even Black Snake went over.”
“Yes,” Li Mi answered concisely.
“According to my investigation, at least twelve organizations have arrived in Panem. Lin Yi is in a lot of danger.”
“Lin Yi’s ability can’t be underestimated. Even with so many people surrounding him, he might still be able to hold on for a while. Tell Chen Guanjie to keep an eye on him and not make any mistakes.”
“Got it.”
Wang Tingshan waved his hand. “Also, if the Central Guards Brigade has any
new arrangements and deployments, report back immediately.”
“Understood!”
Zhonghai, Jiuzhou Pavilion.
The sleeping Ji Qingyan abruptly sat up from her bed. Her clothes were drenched in cold sweat, and her face was extremely pale.
He was panting heavily, like a drowning person who had been dragged ashore.
In the darkness, Ji Qingyan fumbled for her phone.
The light on the screen came on. With the help of the light, he could see that her lips had turned pale.
Her normally composed hair was now disheveled, stripping her of all her usual elegance and leaving her looking panicked and disorganized.
On her phone, aside from two emails and a spam message, there was nothing else.
She did not see the contents she was hoping to find.
Due to the time difference, Ji Qingyan always called Lin Yi at night.
So, after work, she did as usual and called Lin Yi to check on how he was managing with the situation.
However, the call went unanswered.
At that moment, Ji Qingyan didn’t think much of it, assuming Lin Yi was busy with something. It was normal for him not to pick up, so she just waited for him to finish up and call her back.
However, even after dinner that night, there was still no call.
She decided to make another call.
However, if she called then, she would not have been able to get through.
It wasn’t until before she went to bed that night that she called dozens of times, but the results were the same. No one answered.
Ji Qingyan’s heartbeat quickened.
She took her phone and called Lin Yi again.
This time, there was still no answer.
An inexplicable anger welled up in her heart, and she threw her phone aside in frustration.
At this point, she had changed out of her pajamas as she leaned against the head of the bed and sat there until the sky was bright.
Panem City, East 76th Street.
Lin Yi and Zhou Liang had a temporary respite, but that didn’t change their dangerous situation.
“How far to the embassy?”
Lin Yi looked around and asked cautiously.
“About five kilometers.”
“Drive faster. Every second counts for us.”
“Understood.”
Zhou Liang did not dare to delay. He also understood the urgency of this matter. He had to rush to the embassy in the shortest time possible.
Lin Yi panted heavily as he tried to take out his phone to contact Yu Siying and the others.
However, he realized that the screen of his phone had already shattered.
“F*ck!”
Lin Yi said, feeling like it was a stormy night.
He couldn’t use his phone. Whether he could survive now really depended on luck.
As he observed his surroundings, Lin Yi’s mind raced.
He sifted through the series of events in his mind.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a conspiracy.
It was a conspiracy against him!
These ten kilograms of ores must have been planned. They were placed inside the cargo when the wood was packed.
It was only today that it was made public.
In the morning, Yu Siying said that the two groups of people they were following were moving towards the Bureau. This was not a coincidence. They were coming for the Bass ore!
The reason for this was because they had obtained accurate information that the ore was in his hands!
With this news, they had turned their eyes toward him!
He became everyone’s target.
And these things clearly pointed to one thing!
The person secretly pulling all the strings seemed to know every move they made.
Only then could they have orchestrated such a comprehensive scheme!
Thinking this, Lin Yi breathed heavily, staring out the window.
If his guess was correct, these last five kilometers would be fraught with dangers for him and Zhou Liang.
It wouldn’t be easy for them to reach the safe zone unscathed.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Just as Zhou Liang accelerated, preparing to make their escape, they heard the noise of engines revving and guns firing!
Danger struck once again!
