Chapter 391 A City-Wide Manhunt
A small, ordinary cargo ship was slowly making its way through a remote sea in Oceanvile.
Inside the cabin, Jon had received a message from his superior. He was so angry that he smashed the computer.
“Damn bastard!”
Seeing this scene, the henchman at the side trembled slightly and went up to Jon’s side. “Jon, what’s the situation?” he asked in a small voice.
Jon said through gritted teeth, ” Someone has published the list of our agents in various countries to the black market. One can get it as long as one pays money!”
Everyone’s face changed when they heard this. They were the most aware of what would happen to their colleagues once their identities were leaked.
If someone really had the list of their colleagues and put it on the internet for public sale, it would be a huge disaster for them. One of them couldn’t help asking, “Jon, do you know exactly who’s on the list?”
Despite feeling angry, Jon controlled his emotions and didn’t express them in order to keep the situation calm for everyone else.
“There are more than a hundred people. All of them are second or third- rank members of our organization. The first-rank members have not been exposed.”
Although they were only second or third -rank members, over a hundred were on the list. That was a really large number.
The first-rank members were the core of their organization. If they were exposed, then their organization would be doomed.
The exposure of so many second-rank members would surely result in great problems for them in carrying out their work in various countries, and their safety would be threatened.

Jon remained silent. At the moment, no notification from domestic was received by him. However, this matter happened too strangely.
The other party did not seem to have the slightest intention of negotiating. They directly released the news as if they were desperately striking back.
Moreover, the timing of this matter was too sensitive. It was hard for Jon not to associate it with the person imprisoned in the ship’s cabin.
In a stern voice, he instructed his subordinates, “It’s pointless to overthink things that have already happened. Our only option now is to carry out the orders given by our superiors. Guys, monitor the man closely. Don’t let him out of our sight for even a moment.”
“Got it!” the crowd replied in unison.

and stayed in Oceanvile. Erick kept an eye on the Swanns’ cooperation with the Winfreds so she didn’t have to worry about it. The most important thing now was to find Randolph and get him back.
Seeing Catherine sitting motionless in front of the window sill, Branden slowly approached and pressed his hands gently on her shoulders, helping her relax.
“I’ll get Dr. Dunn. You can rest for a while!”
Subconsciously, Catherine leaned back, enjoying the pleasant sensation of Branden’s gentle massage. She closed her eyes with comfort and slowly uttered, “There’s no rush. They can’t get away!”
Branden didn’t know where she got the confidence to say such a thing, but he admired her. And Catherine was right. There was absolutely no way that group of people could get away.
“Buzz, buzz…”
The cell phone Catherine placed on the table vibrated, and she snapped her eyes open. A stern, overbearing light shone from within her cool eyes.
“I’ll go get you some fruit!” the man said, leaving immediately. Although Catherine had no intention of avoiding him, he left on his own accord, and she didn’t want to explain anything. Catherine picked up the cell phone on the table and answered the call.
As soon as the line was connected, Withal’s excited voice came from the other end. “Catherine, this is Withal!”
“I know it’s you!” Catherine replied succinctly.
Although Catherine’s voice was cold and indifferent, Withal didn’t care and continued excitedly, “Catherine, who is this Dr. Dunn? Why does it feel like all the bigwigs are looking for him? From what I’ve found out, not only us but even Red Star and the Duncans have all been mobilized with the same target.”
Catherine didn’t care who was looking for Randolph right now. What she was concerned about was Randolph’s whereabouts.
“Where is Dr. Dunn?”
Withal froze for a second at Catherine’s question. “No word yet.”
Before Catherine could get angry, Withal immediately explained, “But don’t worry, Catherine. Although Dr. Dunn’s whereabouts have yet to be found, the scope has been well-defined.
“Now we can be sure that they haven’t left Oceanvile. I have organized people to monitor all modes of transportation, including airplanes, trains, buses, and minibusses. The entire city is now under our watchful eye. If they attempt to flee, I will ensure that they have nowhere to hide.”
Listening to Withal’s smug report, Catherine bluntly asked, “What about the sea?”
Withal was about to retort that it wasn’t possible, but he hesitated. Nothing was impossible in their industry. There were many experts, and they could do anything.

At the same time, Paxton also received the latest information. When he found Branden, Branden was cutting fruits in the tiny kitchen in the courtyard.

Paxton was taken aback by his intense concentration. Without even looking up, Branden knew who was coming, and he was removing the ends of the strawberries bit by bit.
“Speak.”
The ice-cold voice brought back Paxton’s wandering thoughts, and he hurriedly adjusted himself and reported earnestly.
“Sir, we’ve just received information. People from the Hacker Alliance are also involved, and the person in charge of investigating Dr. Dunn is the leader of Withalist, a branch of the Hacker Alliance.”
Paxton didn’t expect that a mere Dr. Dunn could stir up such a big storm. Those who were involved were extraordinary, no exception.
There was no evidence yet to prove whether Catherine was related to the Hacker Alliance. Still, judging from what had happened earlier, Paxton felt that Catherine had some connection with the Hacker Alliance.
So, it was possible that Catherine was a member of the Hacker Alliance. He could tell it, and so could Branden. However, Branden had no suspicions and did not even allow them to look into the matter.
Then, there was nothing they could do.
Catherine was too mysterious, so much so that everyone was curious about her. Just as Paxton was contemplating, Branden suddenly spoke up. “Have Cory and the others share the information with Hacker Alliance!”
“Share the information?” Paxton’s jaw dropped in shock. The Duncans had always been powerful. When had they ever shared anything with anyone else?
Branden slowly looked up and cast a glance at Paxton. “Do I need to repeat myself?”
“No, of course!” A cold chill ran down Paxton’s back, and he shivered in fear.
