1148 I Want to Make You Stay 26 (2/2)
The three children were then brought away and placed inside a wooden crate. The wooden crate was then sealed by nails, leaving just a few tiny holes to allow for ventilation.
A few men then carried the crate onto a large cargo truck and placed it right at the bottom. In order to prevent the air from becoming too thin, they even left an airway for fresh air to enter.
The truck began to move off, and the children had no idea where they were being sent to.
They looked at each other in shock and dismay.
The space was extremely small and cramped. They could only remain in a squatting position, and every slightest movement would feel uncomfortable.
Long Xiaoxi burst into tears again and she muttered, ”I miss Daddy and Mommy…”
Jin Yiheng hushed her and said, ”Don't cry, Rongyan and I are here with you. Look, Rongyan isn't crying either. Stop crying too.”
Long Xiaoxi nodded while biting her lip, and the three children remained seated quietly.
A few hours later, the car came to a halt.
The three children continued to play dead, and someone moved the crate from the truck to a ship.
There was a young woman on the ship who was sipping on some liquor. At the sight of the crate, she immediately said, ”Open it.”
”Yes.”
The two men removed the lid of the crate, after which the woman asked, ”Why aren't they awake yet? Carry them out.”
”They should be coming to very soon.” The two buff men carried the children out of the crate and placed them onto the ground.
Jin Yiheng opened his eyes, after which the woman put down her glass of liquor and stood up. ”Hey, kid, you've come to.”
”Pretty sister, where are we?”
”Hey, you've got such a glib tongue,” the woman said, speaking in an authentic S Nation Mandarin. She was all smiles, clearly thrilled to have received a compliment.
”What do we do with these three children?”
One of the men answered, ”Master wants us to go ahead with our usual practice and train them to become assassins. However, they must be sent to Mingshan Island at once.”
The woman remarked in astonishment, ”What's the purpose of sending them there? Isn't that an execution ground? Does he want them to be killed? If that's the case, what's the point of sending them to such a faraway place?”
”Master wants us to dump them there and leave them to fend for themselves. It's easy to kill them now, but Master seems to be planning to leave them there for a while before training them to become one of us. When that happens, wouldn't Master be able to get his hands on the Jin Corporation easily?”
”Oh, I see. Got it, you guys may leave. I'll handle it from here. Nothing will go wrong, for sure.”
The two men turned around and left.
The three children were left alone with the woman.
Jin Yiheng scanned his surroundings. Upon seeing how strange he was behaving, the woman pointed at a chair and said, ”You don't have to look any further. You kids are never going to be able to escape. There are guards everywhere outside. Come and sit here.”
”Okay.”
At this moment, Jin Rongyan and Long Xiaoxi had also opened their eyes and were instructed to sit beside Jin Yiheng.
”Pretty sister, what are you trying to do?” Jin Yiheng asked, staring at her with his innocent, puppy eyes.
”Kid, I'm not trying to do anything. I'm just here to teach you some knowledge, but you must pay attention and memorize what I teach you, okay?”
”What knowledge?” he asked.
The woman chuckled and asked, ”Do you know your parents' names?”
”I do, but my brother doesn't. She has no idea what her parents' names are either,” said Jin Yiheng, pointing at Long Xiaoxi.
