Chapter 1279: Spying on Each Other
Editor: Atlas Studios
Shi Qian didn’t know what had happened. She walked around Andy and past Arthur.
“I don’t want to go back to my room yet. I don’t want to rest so early.”
“If you go back to your room now, you can sleep alone tonight. Otherwise, I’ll sleep with you in your room later. Choose one yourself.”
Shi Qian immediately turned around and left without looking back.
Arthur:…
Andy stood between the two of them, not knowing if he should chase after Shi Qian or stay. He was conflicted.
Arthur headed in the direction of the beach.
“Boss, the cargo ship was parked in that direction at that time.” The bodyguard pointed.
The surface of the sea was pitch-black. If one did not observe carefully, they would not have discovered the cargo ship. The faint light emitted by the cargo ship was as difficult to distinguish as the stars in the distant sky.
“Release a flare. I want to see what the cargo ship looks like,” Arthur ordered.
“Yes!”
A few minutes later, a flare flew into the sky.
The sudden sound startled Shi Qian. She immediately walked to the window to see what was going on.
The night sky was illuminated by this flare, and the ship at sea was clearly exposed. Arthur picked up his binoculars and looked in that direction.
From the outside, it looked like an ordinary cargo ship.
“Can you find out anything about this ship?”
“Boss, I’m investigating.”
After a while, the bodyguards found information about this cargo ship.
“Boss, this is a normal cargo ship that has been sailing on this route for more than ten years.”
“Can you find out anything about the captain?”
“Yes.”
“After you are done, think of a way to contact him.”
“Boss, that ship has already started to leave. Perhaps it was attracted by the fire on the island just now,” the bodyguard guessed.
“I’ve been sailing on this route for more than ten years. I know the customs of this island like the back of my hand. How can a small bonfire party attract the attention of these people?” Arthur asked.
“Boss is right. I’ll think of a way to contact the captain immediately.”
Arthur looked at the dark sea, and his gaze was as deep as the night.
Bliss was ready to move, which meant that Bliss had agreed to his terms. However, Bliss was definitely not someone who could be threatened so easily.
Not only did he have to be wary of Fu Sinian, but he also had to be wary of Bliss.
The clansmen on the island were lively until past eleven o’clock, and they all went back to rest.
Arthur stood alone on the quiet beach, unmoving.
Shi Qian did not dare to sleep either.
There was not even a door in this house!
The bed was also very hard and did not feel comfortable at all.
Although Arthur had also gotten someone to bring down some things from the ship, the conditions here were still as simple as a primitive society.
Shi Qian rummaged around for something to defend herself with.
However, after searching for a long time, he did not find anything.
She simply leaned against the window and looked at the night sky.
What did Arthur mean when he asked someone to set off a flare?
They seemed to be fighting at sea.
Could it be that someone suspicious was approaching?
Although she didn’t know how Arthur had brought her out of Country F under Fu Sinian’s nose, she knew that Fu Sinian must be frantically searching for her whereabouts.
She wondered if Fu Sinian had discovered the clues she had left in Arthur’s place.
After Fu Sinian saw the flare, he let the ship continue sailing at its original speed.
“Young Master Fu, we discovered that Young Madam is on the island. Should we take action?”
