Three days later in the morning, the sky was as blue as washed, several white clouds drifted in the air, the sea was sparkling with waves, a few seagulls chirped happily, chasing each other, the sea breeze gently blew, carrying the strong sll of the sea, swaying the sun umbrellas on the beach, trying to see the person lying on the beach chair under the sun umbrella resting with eyes closed.
Luo Zheng, wearing sunglasses, comfortably lay on the beach to rest, enjoying the sea breeze and listening to the waves. Life was relaxed and care-free, this kind of day without gunfire or warfare had a unique sense of ease. Luo Zheng was indulging in this rare tranquility, no one knowing if there would suddenly be a mission next mont. Peaceful life was exceedingly precious to Luo Zheng, unwilling to waste even a minute.
Deep in the sea, Ghost Hand and others were diving, training while entertaining, killing two birds with one stone. Luo Zheng lay for a while and suddenly heard Lan Xue's anxious voice on the walkie-talkie beside him, calling him to co at once. Luo Zheng was startled, his face changed drastically. Considering Lan Xue's deanor and courage, she wouldn't be so tense unless sothing serious happened. His face turned solemn, eyebrows furrowed, and he rushed towards the hotel.
Luo Zheng first returned to his room and casually rinsed, changed into proper clothes – it was inappropriate to et people in swimwear. He hurried to Lan Xue's room door, knocked, and entered, only to find Lan Xue with an angry face, sitting on the sofa waiting. Next to her were Lan Bo and Lan Xing; Lan Bo was deep in thought, while Lan Xing's face was livid with anger.
"What happened?" Luo Zheng asked in surprise, quickly sitting down beside Lan Xue, looking at Lan Bo.
"Grandfather just called," Lan Xue said coldly, with a murderous aura emanating from her whole body, "United Nations Police Headquarters sent a notification letter. Soone sued my father, asking our governnt to cooperate in arresting him. As a child, how could we watch as our parents are humiliated?"
"It's Sam Country's backup plan; didn't expect them to use this trick, quite formidable." Luo Zheng's face changed drastically, said coldly, looking at Lan Xue, advising, "Don't worry, is there room for maneuver?"
"Not at all," Lan Bo said first, seeing Luo Zheng looking at him, then continued, "If the United Nations Police Headquarters acts and our governnt doesn't cooperate, it would cause a negative reaction in the international community, which is detrintal to the country. The United Nations would take the opportunity to pressure the country, and even Sam Country might jump out, legitimately joining other countries in implenting a blockade or sanctions, or even worse."
"So serious?" Luo Zheng knew little about international politics, his face changed dramatically hearing this, looked at Lan Xue in bewildernt, Lan Xue nodded, her face icy cold, prompting Luo Zheng into deep thought.
Everyone fell silent, the room plunged into quietness. After a while, Luo Zheng exhaled a turbid breath, coldly said, "Had anticipated Sam Country's assassination, economic oppression, and various thods, but didn't think they'd use this trick. I now sowhat understand."
"Understand what?" Lan Xue asked in surprise.
"If Uncle Lan is arrested, how would you react?" Luo Zheng asked in return.
"I certainly wouldn't let it go." Lan Xue responded without hesitation.
"Exactly, none of us would sit and wait. This would allow Sam Country's sche to succeed; they've surely laid all sorts of plots waiting for us, each step interlinked with another, a calculated strategy indeed. This approach seems sowhat like the forr Charlie; could it be Sam Country Strategic Intelligence Bureau's doing?"
"Likely." Lan Xue said coldly, her expression turned even colder, eyes flashing with icy murderous intent, her whole body erupted with a murderous aura, looking like a billion-year-old ice block, sending chills down one's spine.
"If we don't hand him over, Sam Country would continue applying pressure via the United Nations until we do; it's an overt plot we can't avoid. Once handed over, things would spiral out of control, and we can't appear in the open. Once exposed, that's exactly the opportunity they've been waiting for; they could find any excuse to arrest us, a strategy indeed." Luo Zheng coldly stated, looking at Lan Bo.
"What you said makes sense; any solutions to resolve this?" Lan Bo angrily asked.
"No better solution; International Police are probably already on the way. Even pretending to be dead wouldn't fool anyone. It's an overt plot; even knowing the enemy's hidden plot doesn't help, we can only passively accept. Now the concern is whether International Police have been bribed by Sam Country or if they're fulfilling duties normally?" Luo Zheng said with a face as heavy as iron, coldly.
"Are you suggesting?" Lan Xue caught on, her face changed drastically, coldly asking Luo Zheng.
"Yes." Luo Zheng saw that Lan Xue understood his point, nodded, looked towards Lan Bo, continued, "Rest assured, International Police would take two days to arrive and another day to handle relevant legal procedures. That gives us enough ti to arrange many things. With here, you won't be in danger."
"Alright, we'll go with your plan." Lan Bo inexplicably felt a sense of security, smiled and wholeheartedly agreed, relievedly looked at his daughter Lan Xue, pleased with Lan Xue's prospect. But thinking of his younger daughter Lan Xing who was still single, wondered what would happen once he left, worried he might not witness Lan Xing falling in love, and couldn't help but fret.
Parental hearts everywhere!
Lan Xing didn't know her father was worrying about her marriage, angrily said, "Brother-in-law, tell , what I can do. These bastards, this ti I will definitely make them regret."
"You're indispensable in this matter; I'll tell you the details later. I need to plan carefully." Luo Zheng said with a deep expression, looking towards Lan Bo, who nodded understandingly, Luo Zheng then looked at Lan Xue, who stood up; Luo Zheng gave everyone an apologetic smile and left with Lan Xue.
The two heavily-hearted went to Luo Zheng's room and sat on the sofa. Lan Xue looked at Luo Zheng puzzled, saying, "This matter has left in chaos, unable to think objectively. It's all on you. When you called here, is there sothing to discuss? As long as it's about teaching those Sam Country bastards a lesson, I'm all ears."
"Rest assured, your father is my father too. How could I watch him walk into danger without intervening? But, there's more to this matter than ets the eye; I must uncover Sam Country's conspiracy behind this, otherwise we'll be passive everywhere. Thus, I need more ti; you should discuss with Military Doctor Wu later, have your father pretend to be sick, do it convincingly, delay as many days as possible. Of course, your father must agree to this, I couldn't say this before; it's on you now." Luo Zheng seriously instructed.
"No problem, anything else I need to do?" Lan Xue seriously asked, her eyes filled with gratitude and love for Luo Zheng, the chaos in her heart gradually settling.
