I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier Chapter 684: The Sorrow of One Person
"Alright then. Now, under these circumstances, what do I need to do, Boss Liu?"
"Find every single person who was involved in the search back then, no matter what it takes, and identify the insider among them."
"Boss Liu, didn't you just say that finding these people seems to be of no significance?"
"That was what I told Ye Chen. I don't want Ye Chen to get involved in this, and it also leaves us with a way out."
"Understood, Boss Liu. No matter how difficult it may be, I will definitely carry on with this."
"Good. Go now, and make sure to inform as soon as there's any news."
"Don't worry, Boss Liu."
After giving these instructions, Boss Liu got up and left.
Upon returning from outside, Anying happened to pass by Lin Yaru's room.
Normally, Anying would be very cautious when entering, worried about disturbing others' rest.
Seeing that the room was quiet at the mont, she guessed that Ye Chen probably hadn't returned yet.
However, as she passed by Lin Yaru's room, Anying suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Because, it seed to her, she could clearly hear the sound of a woman crying softly inside.
Furrowing her brows slightly, she had intended to pass by and return to her own room upstairs, but unexpectedly, she heard that sound.
Anying knew that this matter was indeed unbearable for Lin Yaru; everyone had thought her father had died many years ago.
Little did anyone imagine that, back then, he had been hiding in a cave beneath the pier, and after that, he was trapped on a Deserted Island. Any reasonable person would likely struggle to accept this reality.
Anying felt that, no matter what role she was in, even if she was just a woman showing concern at this mont, she should have a good talk with Lin Yaru.
So, Anying gently knocked on the door.
Then, the crying inside suddenly stopped.
"Who is it?"
Lin Yaru responded from inside.
"Oh, Miss Lin, it's , Anying,"
Afterward, Lin Yaru ca over and opened the door.
Although she had stopped crying, it was obvious that her eyes were red and swollen, suggesting that she had been crying in her room for quite so ti.
"What happened to you?"
Anying got straight to the point. Since she had already seen this scene, she felt there was no need to hide it any longer.
She had intended to bring the matter out into the open and discuss it, and now that the opportunity had presented itself, she certainly wasn't going to let it go.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just got sothing in my eye, so I've been rubbing it for a while."
While speaking, Lin Yaru hurriedly turned her head and bowed it down, rubbing her eyes forcefully with her hand.
"Alright, I know what's on your mind, and I've already heard you sobbing quietly in here."
At that, Lin Yaru just sighed deeply. She had wanted to cover up the matter, but now it seed that there was no chance to do so.
"I'm sorry for making a scene."
"It's not about making a scene or not. If I were in your shoes, I'm not sure I could fully accept it either."
"Yes, I would have never imagined that on that day, my dad was hiding in that cave and everyone was oblivious to it."
"That can only be described as a huge conspiracy, and a terrifying one at that. So, we need to be cautious in approaching this issue, because, after all, it has already happened. Even if you want to chase after the past now, it's aningless. Don't forget, you were only a few years old at the ti; you couldn't have been expected to deal with all of this."
"Yes, if I could have controlled everything back then, I definitely would have sorted this out. It's just a pity that I now have the ability, but after 20 years of his disappearance, I still have no idea where my dad is."
"Regardless of where it is, that's not so important to us now. The most crucial point is that I think, after all these years, they've kept him alive because he has so value to them. They haven't hard him all these years, which ans they are unlikely to harm your father going forward."
At this, it was as though Lin Yaru saw a glimr of hope; she suddenly turned back and looked at Anying with excitent.
In truth, Lin Yaru was fully capable of understanding this herself.
But at this mont, she was still willing to have an outsider discuss it with her.
"I tell you, if they really wanted to harm your father, they would not have let him live to this day. It's just like the dream you had. Previously, he was trapped on a sealed Deserted Island, and after that, he was taken away from the island by soone."
"Right, that's what I'm worried about. After they took my dad away, what's their next move? And if they didn't have a complete plan, they would not act rashly at this point."
"That's why we need to start investigating this next. Every matter has its relevance, so if we want clarity now, we need to start the investigation from scratch. After all, it's been more than 20 years; if we rush to approach the power plant, progress may not be significant."
After hearing this, Lin Yaru nodded gently.
Although she was more eager than anyone to know everything, given the current situation, she also knew she couldn't rush.
Otherwise, hastiness might have the opposite effect—sothing Ye Chen had told her many tis before.
"I've waited for over 20 years; do I care about this little bit of ti now? Just let things take their course and develop slowly."
"Alright, if you can truly co to terms with that, then I think we can actually solve this mystery. After all, we've already found the place where he hid all those years at the pier. Next, we have to get closer to that Deserted Island."
