Chapter 1841: Arriving at the Right Time
"No, our equipment is all satellite-based. There can't be no signal inside, otherwise, how would they communicate with the
outside?" Felix pondered for a moment. "If by any chance there really is no signal, according to the original plan, you lead the team
in half an hour later. We'll go in and explore the place."
"Alright, that's settled," Mr. Ball nodded.
Before leaving, Mr. Ball reminded Felix, "No matter what happens, don't act impulsively. Think about the entire Saunders family. If
you encounter danger inside, it's better to find a place to hide and wait for us to cin."
"Got it," Felix replied impatiently.
Following that, Felix and Wu Hao sneaked into the place from where the two men in black had emerged earlier.
They descended along the narrow stairs and entered the interior of the semi-basement. Once inside, they discovered a hidden
world that was much larger than they had imagined. There was a corridor that led to an endless abyss, as well as several forks
whose destinations were unknown.
The terrain was intricate and complex, and although it was a dark corner, it was well-maintained with no musty smell. The fresh air
system was on 24/7. The floor was covered with European-style antique tiles, and the walls were uneven with siliceous mud. The
furniture and decorations all exuded a dark atmosphere.
Felix understood it all too well-Cloud was indeed cunning. No wonder this place had bectheir stronghold. It was truly a good
location.
Felix and Wu Hao exchanged glances and quietly proceeded, preparing to investigate separately.
As they walked deeper, another man in black suddenly appeared. He, too, wore a head covering that only revealed his eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man complained upon seeing them, "Why did you take so long? The boss is waiting for the meeting, what are you standing
around for? Hurry up!"
Felix knew that the men in black recognized them by the numbers on their clothes.
At this moment, Felix and Wu Hao dared not speak, fearing they would give themselves away, so they nodded in agreement. A
meeting? Where were they going to have the meeting? What if they went in the wrong direction and were discovered? Felix made
up his mind. When in doubt, rely on guesswork. He headed straight for the end of the corridor.
But then, the man in black stopped them.
"Wait."
Felix halted his steps, feeling a sudden shock. Damn it, did they go the wrong way? Or did they reveal a flaw?
Meanwhile, Wu Hao discreetly placed his hands behind his back, fully alert and ready to fight at any moment.
Unexpectedly, the man in black said, "Why are both of you going? The boss doesn't like too many people. One of you is enough."
Felix felt relieved, realizing he had guessed correctly.
He signaled to Wu Hao with his eyes, indicating for him to secretly investigate while Felix attended the meeting. He wanted to hear
what Cloud's next move would be.
Wu Hao understood and placed his hand by his side, making a discreet OK gesture.
Shortly after, Wu Hao turned around first, and his sturdy figure disappeared into the complex maze of corridors.
Felix continued until he reached the end of the corridor. He was cautious, trying not to make any unusual sounds. Sure enough,
there was a door at the end. He hesitated whether to open it. At that moment, another man in black walked over and opened the
door before him.
Felix quickly followed behind the man in black, making it less likely for them to be noticed by others.
Once inside, the space was large, with about dozens of men in black standing respectfully.
Felix quickly positioned himself at the back of the line of men in black.
After a while, Cloud emerged from the inner room. He walked all the way to the chair in front and sat down.
Felix held his breath and focused. His gaze wandered around, observing the internal structure of the entire room. He calculated
how he would leave later, and how he would escape if discovered. It was at this moment that he heard a familiar series of
footsteps.
He looked up abruptly-it was Vicki.
He was too familiar with everything about her. Whenever she cto his office before, even if she was far away, he could hear her
footsteps in advance. Sometimes he would stand by the window, deliberately not turning around. When she approached him, he
would suddenly turn around and embrace her tightly, teasing her. He had never missed a beat. So, he knew it was her.
Having not seen her for stime, he couldn't control himself and greedily gazed at Vicki. She seemed colder than before, with a
cold and expressionless face. No one knew what she was thinking. She seemed thinner, with deeper and more beautiful features.
Everything about her attracted him. He had long been unableto resist. If it weren't on Cloud's turf, he would have rushed forward
and embraced her right now.
He desperately held back. He noticed that Vicki had a special device on her wrists and ankles, likely an electronic lock. He had
heard of such things before; Cloud probably had a remote control for it. Once Vicki broke free from Cloud's control, he would
activate the electronic lock, emitting a slight electric current that would render Vicki helpless.
