Chapter 1230: 1227
One night!
The entire night, they had spent in endless panic.
And Vivian Li, overwhelmed by extreme anxiety and exhaustion, lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.
In an ordinary residential area, Jin Lisi had been busy these past two days without a moment’s rest.
But the census takers had already come by several times!
“I really don’t know when this lockdown will finally end,” she said.
Jin Lisi was equally frightened and speechless, her voice lacking any confidence.
She had never imagined that after serving the Federal Bureau of Investigation for so long, completing one impossible mission after another, when trouble struck, no one would come to save her.
What’s the most ridiculous thing?
In the heavy encirclement, as her immediate superior, the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Pinn, was still assigning her tasks.
He even demanded that she head to the Eastern Alliance, to join forces with Jessica and the Yamaguchi-gumi, to overthrow the current person in charge of Wright Company.
How ludicrous?
She didn’t even know how to escape danger.
“Miss Jin Lisi!”
A middle-aged man with a face typical of the children who grew up abroad said, “Based on my understanding of the Eastern Sea of America, this lockdown will definitely not last for long.”
“You can stay here with me, I guarantee your safety!”
The man, who had a hawkish nose and small eyes — a sign of an extremely shrewd person — was named Yang Zhiqing. He was a spy bribed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
He had been monitoring all unusual activities in the Eastern Ocean City area for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Many pieces of intelligence regarding the chip research base had also been provided by him.
It’s fair to say that he wasn’t really one of the children who grew up abroad anymore, but had completely become a lackey of the Eastern Alliance!
“Ha…”
Jin Lisi shook her head, “You don’t know shit!”
“How about the people I told you to contact?”
“Is there a ship captain willing to take the job?”
Flight was definitely out of the question.
So the only option was to smuggle out!
Although it was also very dangerous, it was the best way for her to escape from the tiger’s mouth.
Yang Zhiqing furrowed his brows tightly, “It’s being heavily monitored right now, no one dares to take the job!”
In such a situation, were there still ship captains daring to take on smuggling jobs?
Wasn’t that just joking with their lives?
Truly, it was a matter of choosing money over life.
The naval area of the Eastern Ocean was almost totally blockaded by the military.
It was impossible for any ship to head out to sea.
“Useless!”
Jin Lisi scolded, “Go out and keep looking!”
“If I get caught, you damn well die with me!”
Yang Zhiqing, scolded to the point of not daring to raise his head, knew all too well how miserable the end of a traitor could be.
But what other contacts could he use when he had already approached all the channels available to him?
Wasn’t this deliberately making things difficult for him?
“Ring ring…”
Just then, Jin Lisi’s phone rang. After glancing at the caller ID, a gleam of sharpness flashed in her eyes, “Vivian Li?”
Seeing this number, she pressed the answer button without hesitation.
Although she despised this woman just as much as she despised Jessica Wright, at the very least, they had a common enemy.
Therefore, such a sensitive call coming at this juncture was definitely purposeful.
She held her breath, without speaking, waiting for the other party to start talking.
“Have you left yet?”
Upon waking up, Vivian Li realized that it was naive to think about getting away from Oliver Walker’s control, and she had no choice but to do as instructed.
This call was, in fact, also being monitored.
“Where can I go?”
Jin Lisi was nearly choked with anger. Yes, where could she go?
If she could escape, would she still be in such a difficult situation now?
“Seven Stars Cafe, I’ll wait for you in room 888!”
Vivian Li reported the location. Clearly, some things were hard to clearly convey over the phone.
And considering Jin Lisi’s cautiousness, she definitely preferred to discuss matters in person!
So her grasp on psychology was actually not weak!
