I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier Chapter 680: Zhui Feng

After a few minutes, a middle-aged man ca running from that direction, with his speed alone, Ye Chen felt that the nickna "Zhui Feng" was exceedingly fitting for him.

"Sixth Master, what brings you here?"

"Alright, sit down first. Let introduce you, this is Ye Chen, whom I ntioned to you before, and Ye Chen, this here is Zhui Feng."

"It's an honor to et you, senior."

Ye Chen felt his guess was correct; this man should be around 50 years old.

Judging by that age, the speed he was running at was indeed very fast.

"So, you are Ye Chen? Impressive, truly a force to be reckoned with. No wonder the Sixth Master trusts you so much."

"You flatter ."

"Tell , what's the matter? Since the Sixth Master has brought to you, it must be sothing you want to know, right?"

"Heh, indeed. I was just talking to the Sixth Master a mont ago. He ntioned that the person responsible for the search at the harbor back then was you, right?"

"That's correct, it was . In fact, I was the first one to learn of the young master's disappearance, and then I told the Sixth Master."

"Okay, that's not important. What's most important now is that I want to know exactly who was involved in the search back then?"

"Who? Of course, it was all our own people. Besides the dockworkers, the rest were my subordinates."

"Your subordinates? Can these people be trusted?"

"Rest assured, they are all my brothers, absolutely no problem with that. Why, is there an issue?"

Suddenly called over, Zhui Feng appeared to find this matter rather odd.

After all, it had been over twenty years. Why would the Sixth Master bring up this matter now?

"Actually, all of us involved in the search back then were completely deceived."

"What? Deceived? What do you an, Sixth Master? How could we have been deceived? I was involved in the command myself, and normally, there should have been no issues. Does this an, Sixth Master, that you've discovered so clues now?"

Upon hearing this, the Sixth Master took a deep sigh, never having imagined he would have been deceived for so many years.

"If it weren't for Ye Chen this ti, this matter might have remained concealed forever. Do you know? Underneath that very dock where my son vanished, there's a hidden cave. In fact, he never died that year, nor did he fall into the sea; instead, he was hidden in that cave."

After hearing what the Sixth Master said, Zhui Feng couldn't believe his ears. He rembered clearly that he had searched the entire harbor thoroughly back then, and there should have been no place left unchecked.

"That's impossible, Sixth Master. The search was ticulous back then. Furthermore, the specifications of the harbor at that ti were not that large, so the search wouldn't have been difficult."

"To tell the truth, I also initially thought there was no issue confirming this matter. However, the fact is that Ye Chen found my son's wallet and the keys that he left there in the cave."

"How did you discover this cave? Is the location of the cave really that hidden?"

"I found it by accident because the entrance is indeed very small. Sunlight shone through and happened to create a dark area, so I discovered it at once, but if the search had been thorough back then, I think it ought to have been found. After all, the dockworkers work there all year round; they should at least know about the place, right?"

"The dockworkers? Are you saying soone from the dockworkers involved in the search back then might have been bribed?" Follow current novels on novèlfire

"I can't be certain, but I think it's worth our suspicion."

After hearing this, Zhui Feng simply nodded lightly.

It seed he now believed there was so truth to this matter.

"Sixth Master, it's been too long. The workers from back then have long since left the harbor. To search for their records now would be a task more difficult than reaching the heavens."

How could the Sixth Master not know this?

"Ye Chen, I understand what you want to ask, but even if we found this person, what then? There truly is no point anymore. It's likely they just took money to take the fall for soone else."

Hearing this, Ye Chen just lightly nodded in agreent. Indeed, this was what he ant—if they found this person, it really wouldn't an much.

"Ye Chen, so what do you make of the events that happened back then?"

"I've thought about it carefully. If they hid him in the cave during the search, it's clear that these people had no intention of harming him. Once the search was over, they would have found a way to take him away from the harbor. In doing so, no one would be the wiser."

"To be honest, it's a clever plan. They bypassed the surveillance of all of us and managed to successfully get the person out. So, those involved in these acts were likely not alone—it must have been a group working in cooperation. Otherwise, it's simply impossible for one person to achieve this."

"I know, one person's capabilities certainly couldn't cover all this. It would require a long ti of ticulous planning. Also, Sixth Master, there's another thing you probably don't know—that over these years, Miss Lin has been having the sa dream repeatedly."

When it got to this point, the Sixth Master was montarily stunned. Normally, an ordinary dream isn't worth ntioning, as dreaming is a common occurrence.

But Ye Chen was now speaking so earnestly, which likely ant this dream was of great importance.

"Go on."

"It's like this. Miss Lin told just a few days ago. Initially, in her dreams, she saw her father living in a dark and damp place, with water continuously dripping from the stones around him, and he was trapped in that place."

"Is this the dream Lin Yaru has been having?"

"Yes, and after her father disappeared that year, she has had the sa dream almost every night. Although, according to her, the frequency of this dream has diminished over ti, she still has it once a month, and the dream is always exactly the sa."
