Trafford's Trading Club Chapter 580 Chapter 48 Classified

580: Chapter 48: Classified 580: Chapter 48: Classified “Is this the last one?”

On the rubber dinghy docking on the deserted island, the crew member responsible for driving nodded towards the person who got on board and was about to start the motor of the dinghy…

Just then, a loud shout came from the beach.

“Wait!

Wait, there’s still someone not on board!”

It was Lin Feng’s voice.

Beside Lin Feng, Ren Ziling and Lizi were also running towards them…

The three of them managed to catch up to the dinghy.

“Oh, Luo Qiu, You Ye, you guys are here too.” Lizi blinked and said.

Luo Qiu made space for Ren Ziling to sit down and calmly said, “Yeah, we’ve been staying for quite a while.

We thought it was about time to head back.”

Ren Ziling ungracefully pulled at her collar and fanned herself with her palm, “Weren’t you supposed to lock yourself in the room?”

Boss Luo acted as if he hadn’t heard her, and looking at Lin Feng, asked, “Why are you in such a hurry?”

Lin Feng instinctively replied, “They found the captain…

and he seems to want to confess something.”

Luo Qiu nodded thoughtfully.

Ren Ziling looked at the Baiyu Cruise ahead, furrowed her brow, and said, “But how did he manage to board without us noticing?

We couldn’t find anyone over by the cliffs.”

“Sister Ren, whether we found it or not, we’ll see what the captain has to say later.” Lizi smacked her lips, “Ah, I really want to know what the truth behind the cruise murder case and the legendary treasure is!”

“Yeah, maybe we’ll find out later.” Ren Ziling nodded, then blinked at You Ye and said, “Sorry, You Ye, we planned to have fun, but this happened…

Though, encountering something so thrilling, isn’t it interesting?”

“As long as I’m with you.” You Ye smiled slightly.

Miss Ren felt like she’d been pletely won over by her future daughter-in-law, her eyes full of stars, and enthusiastically said, “Let’s go!

I’ll show you around!”

“Police are handling the case—what are we supposed to do?” Unexpectedly, Boss Luo shook his head.

“…

Aren’t you going to hear the captain’s confession?”

“No need.” Luo Qiu said calmly.

What a sensible child…

Lin Feng looked at the offspring of this former big boss with stars in his eyes, feeling like he might be won over too, almost unlike some devilish woman.

Nonetheless, he couldn’t help but open his mouth and say: Maybe you shouldn’t go either, grand-aunt…

…

…

“Speaking of which, grand-aunt, should you first…”

At the turning point ahead was the hallway with the entrance to the Baiyu Cruise’s control room.

Lin Feng hesitated for a long time before mustering the courage to speak.

But before he could finish, he was suddenly interrupted.

Ren Ziling suddenly hugged her arms with a cold shiver, frowned, and said, “There’s a murderous intent!”

“Mur…murderous intent?” Lin Feng was startled.

He stepped out from the corner…

Across the way, a few people appeared, led by none other than Officer Ma and Miss Ali, with Vice-Captain Mu Qinghai and the previously escaped Flying Eagle, along with a police officer and Xiaobao, trailing behind.

Could it be a mutual feeling between old rivals…

haha.

“Lin Feng, you guys are back too!” Officer Ma called out from afar.

“Yes!

We rushed back without stopping!” Lin Feng quickly walked up.

The two groups finally met at the doorway.

Ali was about to speak when Ren Ziling stepped forward and directly pushed open the door to the control room.

Ali shook her head and softly said to Ren Ziling, “No matter what happens, just remember it in your heart, don’t let it slip.”

Ren Ziling silently nodded.

These two women, in a way, had a kind of understanding that others couldn’t prehend.

At this moment, only the old captain was in the control room…

There was no other crew member to be seen.

Mu Enli was holding the phone on the control console and seemed pletely uninterested in the newers, simply talking to himself, “…

Don’t worry about external power, fix the backup power line first, quickly restore the function of the control room instruments.”

As he spoke, the old captain switched to another channel, “Announce to the passengers via broadcast that there’s a power failure and it will be fixed shortly, no need for panic.

Also, inform them that the culprit has been caught regarding the case.

Reassure the passengers.

Also, tell the retailers on board to offer discounts to the passengers, and I will personally cover their losses…”

He switched channels systematically, issuing mand after mand, undisturbed by others, immersed in his work, almost forgetting to eat and sleep.

“…

Everyone, bear with it.

I’ll reward you all.

I know some drinkers have been eyeing my private collection for a long time; after the return, I’ll let you drink to your heart’s content.”

Even over the phone line, even across the room from the control console, it seemed as if one could hear the cheer.

Mu Qinghai stood silently, watching the old captain’s busy back…

He could never elicit such cheers from the crew.

The old captain finally hung up the phone, looking out through the control room’s glass at the endless sea.

After a long moment, he slowly turned around, looked at the crowd, and nodded, “Thank you for waiting.”

Officer Ma instinctively said, “No problem, you’re handling this very well.”

“e over.” After saying this indifferently, Mu Enli, with his hands behind his back, headed towards his office.

The group quietly followed, even Ali, who seemed from the moment she entered, to have been subdued by the old captain’s demeanor.

From this old man, she felt a sense of calm akin to the sea when it’s tranquil and serene.

Or perhaps depth.

Finally, Mu Enli walked to his seat, but he did not sit down.

Officer Ma took the initiative to ask, “Captain, what did you mean when you said we’ve caught the culprit earlier?

That’s not something you can just…”

“The Qian Guoliang you know, I was the one who killed him,” Mu Enli said directly.

So direct it almost choked off everyone’s words, extinguishing the sentences that were about to be spoken from their hearts, almost like a hurricane rising on the tranquil sea.

The shock brought on by such impact was immense…

but Ali heard something else, frowned, “You said, the Qian Guoliang we know?”

“The information about this person’s identity was fake, wasn’t it?” Mu Enli shook his head, “In fact, his true identity was an agent, codenamed…”

“K09, right?” Ali suddenly interjected.

Officer Ma shot Ali a look of astonishment…

Ali hadn’t disclosed this before, evidently there were things Ali still couldn’t divulge.

“Who are you?” Mu Enli looked at Ali in surprise.

Ali said calmly, “I’m just engaged in some security-related work, K09 was my target this time.”

Mu Enli nodded in realization.

He remained silent for a moment, perhaps digesting something, before he bent down, opened a drawer on the desk.

Lin Feng instinctively gestured and shouted, “Don’t move!”

Officer Ma pressed down on Lin Feng’s arm, shaking his head.

Mu Enli continued, undeterred, opening the drawer and taking out an item wrapped in canvas cloth—a cuboid object about twenty centimeters long, ten centimeters wide, and ten centimeters high.

The old captain placed this worn canvas-wrapped item on the table carefully, unwrapping it while watching Ali, “I suppose you’re here for this too.”

As the canvas was unwrapped, it revealed an iron box.

Mu Enli opened the box again, taking out a slightly smaller…

device.

It had an interface and a small screen.

“What…what is this?” Officer Ma instinctively frowned.

Mu Enli said softly, “This is a specially made detector capable of scanning within a hundred kilometers, whether it’s energy reactions, shallow seabed mineral deposits, maritime defense layouts, or more hidden things…

It’s a device that records all open or classified data on the coast…

In simple terms, it’s a strategic black box.”

Vice-Captain Mu Qinghai suddenly turned pale, leaning weakly against the door.
