Chapter 458: 407 Shoo!

Greentech Pier.

Gazing out, cargo ships brimming with containers were moored at the edge of the sea, waiting to set sail.

The wind howled, and the waves surged.

The rolling tide continuously lashed against the ships’ hulls.

Approaching ten o’clock at night, there were still workers unloading cargo.

"Miss, I’m about to depart."

On the deck of a cargo ship, a man leaned on the railing, holding a phone in one hand and pressing down the brim of his cap with the other.

The waves tumbled.

It was certain that if he set out to sea, it would be another tumultuous and perilous journey.

Yet in his eyes, there was a fill of excitement and longing.

"Where’s Meiko?"

"I don’t know, she hasn’t contacted me since we parted, and I can’t reach her either."

The man’s tone was natural, and amidst the roaring sea breeze, not the slightest bit of oddity could be discerned.

"Miss, after we split up to act separately, we agreed to meet here at Greentech Pier at eleven tonight. I believe that with Meiko’s ability, those foolish police couldn’t possibly detect her. She will come."

It was unmistaken.

This man was none other than Sagan Nobuo, wanted by both the underworld and law enforcement.

Only.

The time he and Meiko had agreed on was midnight, wasn’t it?

And.

It seemed to be tomorrow too.

Today was June 1st, Shenzhou’s Children’s Day, whereas June 2nd was the "three days later" they had agreed upon.

As a seasoned special agent, could he truly be confused about the basic concept of time?

The lady on the phone naturally had no idea of their verbal agreement.

"If Meiko doesn’t show up on time."

She paused for a moment.

"Then there’s no need to wait any longer."

Sagan Nobuo seemed somewhat disheartened and replied lowly, "Understood."

The call ended.

Sagan Nobuo slowly put down his phone, gazing at the waxing moon hanging above the churning sea, and murmured with a smile, "Dear Meiko, you have shown your loyalty. May the Sun Illumination God bless you."

Although he was smiling, his eyes were exceptionally cold and cruel.

In reality, the moment he gave the order, he harbored no expectation that she would return alive.

Continuing to commit crimes under such circumstances, the outcome was predictable, and it was inevitable that she wouldn’t escape.

This.

He knew.

Meiko must have understood it too.

Yet she went anyway.

The moment she left the convenience store, Meiko became a disposable pawn to distract the police.

Sagan Nobuo gently patted the railing, facing the fierce wind, his smile growing increasingly wild and maniacal.

Once the ship started, he would be able to leave the East Sea smoothly and let those foolish Shenzhou folk waste their effort in vain.

"Liao Bro."

"Get in the car, then talk."

The black car convoy blended into the traffic.

"We’ve discovered Sagan Nobuo."

Without waiting for Jiang Chen to speak, Liao Xiangdong took the initiative to say.

Jiang Chen’s spirits lifted, "Where?"

"Greentech Pier," Liao Xiangdong said unhurriedly. "For a professional spy like him, wariness is beyond the ordinary. He must know that under the current situation, it’s impossible to leave the East Sea through regular channels. His identity information and passport are under surveillance. The only way is through the least scrutinized sea route. We have to thank Miss Lan for her thorough consideration. After monitoring all enterprises related to Dongying, we uncovered his trail. He’s planning to leave the East Sea by a vessel owned by a trading company controlled by Dongying nationals, likely tonight. Once the ship sets sail, it’s freedom at sea, limitless as the sky for the birds to fly."

Although Liao spoke with a casual air, the astonishing capabilities required to arrange all this were apparent.

Blood Guanyin.

The reputation was well deserved.

"Liao Bro, we must not let him get away," Jiang Chen pleaded.

"Don’t worry, he won’t escape," Liao reassured.

Greentech Pier.

Sagan Nobuo left the deck and entered the control room.

"Time’s up, set sail."

The captain nodded.

He didn’t recognize this man, but he had to comply with the company’s arrangements.

"Prepare to set off!"

The crew sprang into action.

Just at that moment, a black car convoy drove onto the pier, and dozens of men in black stepped out of the vehicles.

"Stop what you’re doing, put down your things, stand still where you are!"

The laborers unloading were bewildered.

Dozens of formidable men, looking fierce, immediately began to blockade the dock.

Jiang Chen and Liao Xiangdong got out of the car.

Scanning the chaotic dock, Jiang Chen squinted his eyes and looked out to sea.

Aboard the cargo ship.

Sagan Nobuo also noticed the commotion on the dock, his gaze suddenly turning dark.

These Shenzhou pigs, they actually found this place!

"Start the ship!"

He bellowed.

The captain was quite displeased but since this person was specially entrusted by the company and appeared to be of unusual status, he dared not argue and ordered the crew to start the ship immediately.

"Toot..."

The long, deep sound of the ship’s horn echoed.

"Brother Liao, that ship!"

Jiang Chen, sensing that Sagan Nobuo might be on that cargo ship, didn’t hesitate and instantly took off in pursuit.

But how could he catch up?

By the time he reached the seaside, the cargo ship had already left the shore and was sailing into the distance.

On the deck.

A man’s silhouette faintly appeared, his face seemingly shrouded in mockery.

Damn it!

Jiang Chen clenched his fist, looking around for any boats he could borrow.

Suddenly.

The sound of roaring engines came from everywhere.

A dozen speedboats appeared on the tumultuous sea, surrounded by the urgent flashing of red and blue lights, closing in on the cargo ship from all directions.

On the speedboat in front of the cargo ship, the maritime police, in uniform, shouted through a megaphone at the ship.

"You are surrounded, please stop the ship and come to shore for inspection, please stop the ship and come to shore for inspection!"

The crew on the cargo ship were dumbfounded, looking at each other, unsure of what to do.

"Don’t listen to them, increase power! Break through!"

"But they are..."

"I told you to ram through them, do you hear me!"

Sagan Nobuo’s face was ferocious, like a ghastly demon.

With maritime police on all sides, the captain was no longer daring to heed his command, stuttering, "Stop, stop the ship..."

"Bang!"

A dull sound stunned all the crew members.

"You..."

The captain looked down incredulously at the bullet hole in his chest and slowly fell to the ground in terror.

"Whoever dares to stop the ship will end up like him!"

Sagan Nobuo’s expression was brutal, holding the weapon, "Crank it up to the max, ram them to death!"

This was indeed a madman.

The captain was still on the floor, eyes wide open twitching, the crew did not dare to defy Sagan Nobuo’s command anymore, coerced to not only not stop the ship, but to also put the engine at full throttle.

The cargo ship’s propeller started to spin wildly.

The waves on the sea became even more ferocious.

"Move aside!"

The speedboat blocking the cargo ship’s path swiftly moved out of the way.

"Heh, trying to catch me!"

Watching the maritime police clumsily dodge, Sagan Nobuo’s eyes were bloodshot as he let out a deranged sneer.

"Don’t worry, he won’t get away."

On the shore.

Liao Xiangdong came over to his side.

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Chen looked up.

In the night sky, two helicopters appeared, flying at an angle toward the frenzied cargo ship, their blinding searchlights sweeping across the sea.

"Put down your weapons and stop your futile resistance!"

Sagan Nobuo was stunned, his eyes growing bloodier, staring like a fierce ghost at his crew members who were now lost and in fear.

"Keep going! If anyone dares to stop the ship, I’ll butcher him!"

The two helicopters hovered over the cargo ship.

Then.

Jiang Chen witnessed a scene that would be engraved in his memory forever.

The door of a helicopter opened, and there stood a woman in simple white dress holding a sniper rifle.

The wind from the propeller made her clothes flap wildly.

She looked down.

Aimed.

"Whiz."

The cargo ship slowly came to a stop.

Liao Xiangdong’s expression was calm.

Jiang Chen couldn’t help swallowing hard.
