Chapter 509 - Clean Shit Up (1/2)
One day later, Iturup Island
A silver Ilyushi+n 38 surveillance aircraft landed on the ht The door to the cabin opened, and Xia Lei and Long Bing stepped out of the aircraft A group of Russian soldiers looked curiously at these two Chinese people, trying to guess hat they’d co’s aim was simple They wanted to confirm the fourth treasure location with the ancient compass
The Ilyushi+n 38 had made a circle around japan, and the coiven theeneral location of the fourth treasure was somewhere in the Ryukyu Islands, and not the mainland
This result surprised Xia Lei, but it wasn’t that surprisingly when he thought about it
The Ryukyu Islands was part of the territories owned by the Ming during the Ming dynasty, and the kings of the past all had their titles conferred by the Ming emperor Afterwards, japan had seized the Ryukyu Islands and added it to her territories but voices calling for the independence of this territory from japan had not ceased The co dynasty, so it made sense that the treasure location was hidden souess, of course
Xia Lei and Long Bing walked to a barrack under the watchful gazes of a large group of Russian soldiers
“This result is unexpected” Long Bing frowned “The compass shook the most ere close to Ryukyu Islands, and it obviously pointed to Okinawa That’s where the American erous”
The Okinawan islands here the American base was, and there were four major branches, sea, land, air, and marines stationed there with over 20,000 soldiers These islands could be said to beChina’s passage to the western Pacific
Digging for treasure there was like selling drugs in a stand next to a police station The danger level was so high that it could not be recorded
“We can’t do anything about it” Xia Lei smiled wryly “I hope the fourth treasure location is not under any of the Aet thelared at Xia Lei “You’re still in the ive you a shovel and a hoe Go dig”
Xia Lei laughed “It can’t be”
“How are you going to handle Gu Kewu and Gu Kewen?” Long Bing changed the topic “We can’t take Gu Kewu to Okinaith us”
“Gu Keants to o to Tokyo first, settle the o to Okinawa” Xia Lei looked at Long Bing “So you go to Okinawa first I’ll be about ready to come over once I deal with them”
“You want to take Gu Kewu to Tokyo alone?”
Xia Lei nodded “Gu Kewen and I have some personal matters to settle between us Trust me, I’ll meet up with you in Okinawa”
“You made your decision?”
“I’ve ht, then I’ve decided too I’ with you to Tokyo, then to Okinawa”
Xia Lei was speechless
“You are the only person on the Alloy X Project, and the only one who can go treasure-hunting How can I rest easy and let you go to Tokyo alone? You’re up against Gu Kewen, and the CIA is backing her,” said Long Bing
Xia Lei was troubled by this but Long Bing was ada her to go to Okinawa to wait for hi Bing would surely find out about what Gu Kewen had on Shentu Tianyin, and that was going to be troubleso the truth?’ pondered Xia Lei ‘She is a patriotic woive this What would she do if she found out that Tianyin had eh Gu Kewen?’
He wouldn’t keep things fros, but this involved Shentu Tianyin He hesitated, not sure what to do
Xia Lei was quiet, deep in thought, and Long Bing looked at him expressionlessly but her eyes were sharp Her eyes seemed to bore into Xia Lei’s own, and into his soul
“If that’s the case, then we should prepare ourselves We’ll take a shi+p to japan in the ’s eyes and continued walking to the barracks
Long Bing must have some of her own speculations but she did not ask since Xia Lei did not talk about it
These were the barracks of the Russian soldiers, and Gu Keas in one of them
Gu Kewu’s head had been covered in a black cloth all this while, and he was cuffed and restrained to a wooden chair, unable to move and unable to see outside This was to because they had promised the soldiers on Iturup Island that they would not be dragged into this It was a must that Gu Kewu be unaware of what place this was
The cost of using the Ilyushi+n 38 surveillance aircraft was substantial, of course Xia Lei paid the relevant people USD 500,000 This included the fee to help him enter japan, but it was still quite a hefty sum
Gu Kewu lifted his head at the sound of the door opening and turned towards it He could not see Xia Lei or Long Bing and this made him nervous “Who’s there?”
“Me,” said Xia Lei
“Where is this?” asked Gu Kewu
