4552: The Other Side 521

The Other Side 521

"So what do we do?" Hua Jin said, "We have to go and save him as soon as possible."2

"I'll review the route first." Alice said, "Don't worry about anything. Just stay put on the island."

"I want to go too!" Alice glared at him. "What are you going to do there?!"

"I… I'm sure I can give a hand?!"

Alice was speechless. "We'd be grateful enough if you don't end up being a liability!"

"Alright, I promise I won't be a liability!" The actor said, thinking that she had agreed.

Alice glared at him, incredulous. "Anyway, just stay put on the island." She walked away without looking back.

Hua Jin looked indignantly in her direction and clenched his fists…

…

"Alice, we're still unable to obtain approval for the flight route."

East Africa was now a place of unrest. Other than the fighting and the outbreak of influenza, the war also brought along with it an aggressive plague. As the plague spread, the international flight routes had been clamped down so that East Africa was now isolated.

Currently, the battle had reached a stalemate. Apart from that, it was difficult for the various countries' troops to enter East Africa.

"If they are not going to give approval, then fly by force." Alice gave the order, and the logistics team immediately went down to prepare the supplies needed for the trip.

Alice got Vermilion Bird to dispatch three more contingents of mercenaries. When it came to mercenaries, quality mattered more than numbers. This time, in order to bring Gong Jie back safely, Vermilion Bird had deployed almost all her elites to Alice.

They set off during a quiet dawn.

Alice made a calculation. If everything went as planned, they'd be making a force landing in East Africa at night.

The flight route avoided other countries as much as possible. East Africa had already fallen, so it would not pose any threat to flight and landing. As long as they did not pass by other countries… It should be fine. Matters like this were not foolproof, but Alice tried her best to avoid all accidents.

At dawn.

The mercenaries filed onto the plane. Alice counted the supplies and number of people and found that there was an additional person.

She guessed that Vermilion Bird must have felt there weren't enough troops and had sent another mercenary, so she did not think too much of it and prepared to set off.

The hatch slowly closed.

Wearing his combat uniform and carrying his heavy combat bag, Hua Jin looked at the closed cabin door and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

While Alice was dispatching the mercenaries, he had secretly gone to a room and disguised himself as a mercenary. Then he followed the crowd and boarded the plane. Although Alice had repeatedly emphasized how dangerous this trip was, he ignored it completely. He did not know what possessed him, but the thought of Gong Jie in such danger made it impossible for him to just stay put on the island and wait for the man's return. He could only repeatedly warn himself not to be a liability to Gong Jie's rescue operations.

Although he knew that such a move was a little rash, but… Hua Jin sighed deeply.

Beside him, a mercenary spoke. "Everyone, be on your guard. We're dealing with the FBI this time."

"The FBI is most devious. They will do anything to achieve their goals. In short, be vigilant."

"Understand."

The one giving the orders was clearly a captain with authority. The actor glanced at him and fell silent.

After dawn, the sky gradually turned bright.

The plane finally took off.

Hua Jin had not slept the entire night, so he was extremely sleepy. His eyelids grew heavy, and he fell asleep hugging his huge backpack.
