Chapter 1020: Little Angel wants to Escape 2
Even if it would put their life at risk, they were willing to give it a go.
Suddenly, there was the sound of the explosion of an artillery shell from somewhere not far away from the island.
Shock filled the eyes of the ladies from the dormitory. They ran to a high ground frantically. Black Rose and Mo Er went to the monitoring room as well. “What’s going on?”
Ye Ling found his way here so quickly? No way!
Mo Er sent out a drone.
They could observe that a ship had caught on fire from the island.
But they could not see a detailed image of what was going on.
The ladies observed a thick cloud of smoke rising up.
“Look, the ship is on fire. Are they pirates?”
There were indeed pirates in this sea territory. The odds of them attacking business ships were rather rare. The seas were deeper here, and cargo vessels often passed by. The island had always been camouflaged as a private island, so there was not much infrastructure.
Ships that came and went had never stopped before.
Outsiders had never been allowed to step foot on the island.
“What a big fire. A lot of people jumped into the sea.”
“They are seeking help. Someone is attacking them.”
Shen Qianshu, Monica, and Maxi heard the sound of gunshots and explosions in the mountain as well.
“What happened?”
Maxi and Monica looked at each other. They pulled Shen Qianshu who was training along. “Let’s go. To the top.”
The three of them went towards the top of the mountain. They moved really quickly.
Climbing to the peak of the mountain was a really tough task for Shen Qianshu.
Monica said, “Think about it. What if your husband is here to save you? How courageous and romantic. Yet, it is such a way to seek death. Don’t you want to see with your own eyes?”
“… ” Shen Qianshu was dumbstruck.
This cancerous thing!!!
This evil cult!!!
But she could not deny that it was really motivational.
Her footsteps got easier. Her speed caught up with that of Monica and Maxi’s as they climbed up.
The three of them lay on the top of the hill, and they took their binoculars to look out into the sea.
At the sea, a ship was slanted, and half of it was on fire. Quite a number of people were waving frantically in the sea, trying hard to stay afloat as they screamed for help. The other ship just constantly fired at the people in the water. The scene was extremely devastating. Shen Qianshu’s heart skipped a beat, and she felt an unspeakable sense of fear.
She kept praying hard deep down. Please, don’t be Ye Ling.
This scene was too devastating.
The few of them watched for a while, and Shen Qianshu said, “Ladies, if I escaped, can you guys just take into account the relationship we have built in these few days and turn a blind eye on it?”
“No way!”
Monica said, “Don’t seek death. You can’t escape.”
“Why?”
“There is a warning along the coastline on the island. No one is allowed to leave the island without any permission. Otherwise, why do you think that Black Rose would allow you to be left out of her sight? Even if you used your toes to think, you would know that it wouldn’t be easy.”
Indeed, Shen Qianshu never even thought about that.
“Is there anyone on the island who would go over to save them?”
“They would save the people, but they would never let them onto the island.”
Just as Maxi had predicted, the pirate ship went forward to rampage all the assets on the boat. The people in the waters swam frantically towards the island. Within a short time, the pirate ship left. Two speed boats were sent from the island to save the people up. Then, they left quickly. Not a single person got near the island.
At the same time, all sorts of flying drones surrounded the outside of the island to prevent any potential fish that had escaped the net.
Monica said, “I have seen two pirate encounters on this island. They all happened near the island, but no one ever got in here.”
“Would Black Rose kill those people?”
“Nope. They are sent to an island nearby.”
Shen Qianshu said, “Does no one do anything about the pirate attacks here?”
“You are thinking too much. When merchant ships bump into a pirate encounter, they can only pray for the best. No one gives a damn.”
