Chapter 198: Shanghai Fantasy
Of course, the two plans they had proposed were just ideas they had in mind. As for how things would unfold once they were implemented, it was certain to surpass their expectations and understanding.
On the other hand, the intelligent system, Zero, which had been continuously monitoring the squad in real time through phone networks, various road cameras, and satellites, found itself unable to do so. This was because, during their planning discussions, they had shut down all communication tools, and the town on the edge of the Amazon where they were located had barely any infrastructure. As a result, Zero hadn’t been able to eavesdrop on their conversation.
After all, while Zero was all-knowing in any place connected to the internet, if the other party was in an environment with no network and had shut down all communication tools, it couldn’t conduct real-time surveillance.
However, this situation was only temporary. Just after Leit and Jon had formulated their plan and split up, their movements were quickly detected by Zero due to their communication with each other.
“BOSS, they are about to make a move, and it’s possible they’ll use your family to threaten you.”
“They’re going to act now? In that case, let’s make sure they stay here,” Wu Hao responded coldly to Zero’s warning. He also hoped that the people behind them would realize something from this situation—that he wasn’t someone they could afford to mess with. If they didn’t realize that, he wouldn’t mind making them pay a higher price.
Immediately, Wu Hao prepared to personally handle the situation. Not wanting to alarm his family, he summoned Shen Lin and instructed him to ensure their safety, as he might need to leave for a while at any moment.
Time passed quickly. An hour later, Wu Hao, his family, and several bodyguards boarded a few small boats, preparing to travel downstream along the river to another town several hundred kilometers away. The journey would take most of the day.
