Chapter 2487: Chapter 2488: A Madman’s Plan

Central Guards Brigade, operation meeting room.

Everyone’s gaze fell on the large screen, observing Lin Yi’s every move.

The same question that Lin Jingzhan had, formed in their minds.

What on earth is Lin Yi trying to do?

This is completely unlike his usual behavior.

“With Lin Yi’s personality, he would never cut off his own retreat before success is assured,” Liu Hong said.

“That’s what I can’t figure out either,” Liang Xianghe said slowly:

“It won’t be long before the cruise ship arrives at the port, there will definitely be people waiting there for him.”

The worries of these two were shared by everyone else.

They had absolutely no idea what Lin Yi was thinking.

Just as the meeting room fell silent, Liang Xianghe said in a low voice:

“Little Sun, zoom in on the map.”

Everyone looked confused, turning their attention to Liang Xianghe.

They noticed his expression was as serious as an unmelting block of ice.

Central Guard’s staff member Little Sun stood up and zoomed in on the map on the screen.

Liang Xianghe stared intently as everyone noticed the muscles at the corner of his eye twitching.

“This kid is really audacious!”

“Elder Lu, have you guessed what he’s planning to do?” Liu Hong asked anxiously.

“His target isn’t Jyoto Port at all!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, “Then he is…”

“Yokosuka!”

“Yokosuka?”

“Yes! His target is the colossal object docked there!”

“He actually!”

Stunned!

Everyone who heard this news was stunned!

Sweat poured down uncontrollably!

Just controlling the Ocean Symphony was shocking enough!

But unexpectedly, his real target was that behemoth!

“Compared to a ship full of people, his target has even greater value,” Liang Xianghe leaned against the chair back, lit a cigarette, and said indifferently:

“From the beginning, he calculated that those on board were only enough to negotiate at the table, not holding an absolute advantage, but now it’s enough.”

Liu Hong shuddered, unable to even conceive of such a crazy plan.

“Now, he has laid all the chips on the table, and we have taken absolute initiative,” Liang Xianghe continued:

“I guess it won’t be long before Gerard figures out what Lin Yi is thinking, then it will be his turn to get anxious.”

Anyone sitting here was no fool; they had also guessed the outcome.

He was gambling with his life, it was up to the other side to decide what they wanted to save.

But no matter what they chose, it would be a gain for their side!

“He’s truly a madman,” Liu Hong said sincerely: “Could a normal person do something like this?”

“Just like his father, both are not normal people.”

Liang Xianghe looked at the map, his expression far from relaxed: “Now we just wait for his return.”

…

Inside Gerard’s office.

Campbell walked in from outside.

“Pal, I’ve arranged everything, do you have anything else to say?”

“Something seems off,” Gerard said seriously.

“What’s the matter? Hasn’t he compromised?”

“No, it appears there has been a change,” Gerard, with a pipe in his mouth, said:

“I feel his route is different from what we expected.”

“Where’s he headed?”

“Yokosuka!”

“How is that possible!”

Campbell exclaimed, hurrying to the screen to stare intently at the cruise ship’s movements.

As the seconds ticked by, cold sweat ran down his forehead.

He also noticed that something was off.

Just like Gerard said, the cruise ship really seems to be heading towards Yokosuka.

“This damn guy, what the hell is he up to!”

Being a clever man, Campbell was well aware that once they arrived in Yokosuka, they would be placed in a dilemma!

“He gave us 72 hours, but his ultimate goal isn’t to blow up the ship, but to target Yokosuka.” Gerard slammed the table and said:

“He’s upping the ante; it’s time for us to make a choice.”

Ding ding ding–

The office door was knocked, and Gerard’s assistant pushed the door open.

“Mr. Gerard, Night Ghost’s Morimoto Chunyi would like to speak with you.”

Gerard’s eyebrows twitched, “Transfer the call.”

“Alright.”

It wasn’t long before the phone rang on Gerard’s desk.

“Hello?”

“Mr. Gerard, something is very wrong with the Ocean Symphony; it’s moving towards Yokosuka.”

“I’ve noticed that too,” Gerard said gravely.

“What should we do about this? At our current speed, we’ll be rushing over in another eight hours.”

“Wait a bit longer, let me think.”

“Understood, but there isn’t much time left; we need to make a decision quickly.”

“I know!”

Their conversation was brief, and Gerard hung up first.

His suspicions confirmed, he couldn’t smile anymore, his heart in turmoil.

“Damn it!”

Gerard kicked the coat stand next to him.

“Who on earth is on that ship! To dare to do something like this!”

We still don’t know, but it’s undoubtedly someone audacious,” Campbell said gravely:

“What should we do now? We must come up with a plan.”

“I don’t believe he’d dare to do something like this!”

“You want to bet?”

“Yes, I don’t believe he has the guts!”

…

Over the azure sea, the Ocean Symphony was still sailing.

More than five thousand people were huddled on the deck, not daring to move an inch.

After several days, the pervasive fear in their hearts had lessened.

They realized that as long as they obediently complied, these people did not intend to harm them.

So, everyone wasn’t that scared anymore.

It was past nine at night; darkness had fallen. Lin Yi called Kenji Nakada and Liu Donghai to his side.

“I have something to tell you.”

Lin Yi paused, then said:

“Take off your clothes and put on your own, then disguise yourselves as kidnapped individuals and blend into the crowd. When we reach shore, you’ll be rescued along with the others, which means you’ll be safe.”

“Disguise?” Liu Donghai was a bit surprised.

Lin Yi nodded, “Don’t be afraid. After disembarking, someone will arrange for your return to the country, I assure you there will be no accidents, trust me.”

“And what about you?” Liu Donghai asked.

“The mission is not yet complete; I still have to stay here.”

Liu Donghai had a strange look on his face and hesitated for a long time before he finally spoke: “Young Master Lin.”

“What is it?”

“Yesterday, I accidentally overheard you making a phone call.”

“And then?”

“The person on the phone with you, was it someone from the officials?”

“Go on, what do you want to do?”

“Then I’ll just say it.” Liu Donghai continued:

“After observing for over a month, and given that you are Young Master Qin’s friend, we believe you’re not a bad person and suspect that you’re on a special mission. If that’s the case, we won’t leave; we want to help too!”
