Chapter 1181 - 1186: Because You Came
"Captain, this time it’s my fault that you got dragged into this."
Danny looked up, his face full of confusion, and asked Yang Yi, "Who? Why?"
"I don’t know, just a guess for now, nothing confirmed. We all think this is a trap—a trap aimed at us. It has nothing to do with Dark Night Knight, so Dark Night Knight just got implicated."
Danny frowned and said, "There’s gotta be some sort of reason, right?"
Yang Yi replied with a helpless expression, "Honestly, we don’t know the reason yet."
Danny exhaled deeply and said, "Alright, I get it. Looks like we’re the chickens being killed to scare off the monkeys. Doesn’t matter. We’ve caught Bashanov and Shahed already—that’s enough."
Yang Yi sighed and said, "No, Bashanov was just being used as a pawn, but Shahed wasn’t. Shahed’s situation is a bit complicated. To put it simply, the Shahed that lured Bashanov wasn’t the real Shahed."
Danny couldn’t help running his fingers through his hair, then spoke gravely, "Can we track down that Shahed?"
"No, we can’t. Bashanov spilled everything he knows, but it’s almost impossible to find the fake Shahed. Even if we try, it will take a very long time. So... Captain, I’m sorry."
Danny locked eyes with Yang Yi and asked, "Why apologize?"
"Because I dragged you into this mess."
