Rong Li’s abdomen is injured and is continuously being bumped by Ji Chi’s head, causing him excruciating pain. Me hoarsely says, “Stop bumping!” “Thank goodness, you’re still alive!” Ji Chi felt somewhat relieved. His body struggled to move on the floor, “Where are you injured?”

“My whole body hurts…” At the moment they fell into the sea, Rong Li had shielded Ji Chi in front of him, and the flames had swept over his back. Afterward, he fell into the sea, and his shoulder was burned. Fortunately, the water extinguished the fire, leaving only a minor burn. However, after falling into the sea, they didn’t lose consciousness. They were shot, with bullets piercing through their shoulders. Then they were knocked unconscious. Now, they feel intense pain all over their bodies.

Ji Chi also notices the gunshot wound on his shoulder, which has not been treated after being soaked in water, making it prone to infection.

Ignoring his own injuries, Rong Li asks, “What about you? Did you get shot?” “No!” Ji Chi’s arm was burned, but he felt much better after falling into the sea. After they fell into the sea, they realized it was a conspiracy, but they couldn’t react in time. Dr. North and Tang Mingzhou’s men engaged in a firefight, while the few of them fell into the sea and tried to swim to Dr. North’s side. However, the speedboat arrived immediately, and bullets were fired in rows. Dr. North didn’t dare to shoot at the area where they fell into the sea, but Tang Mingzhou’s men didn’t care at all. The outcome could be imagined – they were all pulled out of the water by Tang Mingzhou’s men and knocked unconscious.

With their hands cuffed and their legs bound, their movements were restricted. Ji Chi used his shoulder to sit up and moved toward Gu Ci and Qin Wan. Gu Ci had a shrapnel wound in her abdomen that had torn through her flesh, still bleeding after being soaked in seawater. It was unclear whether any shrapnel was embedded in her body. Ji Chi finally got closer and patted her thigh with his hand.

“Cici, Cici… wake up.”

Gu Ci didn’t wake up, but Qin Wan woke up first. Qin Wan was the least injured. When she was caught on the speedboat, she attempted to resist and was knocked out with a gunshot. She wasn’t injured in the sea, and no bullets hit her. She also avoided being engulfed in flames. She and Gu Ci were closer to the railing than Ji Chi and Rong Li when the explosion occurred. They jumped into the sea while embracing each other, with the initial intention of swimming back to the cargo ship.

However, Ji Chi and Rong Li also fell into the sea, and their situation wasn’t very good. Gu Ci managed to swim five meters before turning back to pull Ji Chi and Rong Li. Qin Wan had no choice but to follow Gu Ci.

These few minutes of delay cost them dearly.

Qin Wan was quite annoyed. Why bother saving the enemies? Without saving them, they could have safely escaped.

“Qin Wan, how are you?”

“I won’t die!” Qin Wan examined Gu Ci’s injury, moving clumsily. Gu Ci’s condition didn’t seem right. “Why hasn’t she woken up? Rong Li woke up even after getting shot.”

Gu Ci’s constitution was slightly weaker than Ji Chi, Rong Li, and Qin Wan. When she was pulled onto the speedboat, she was directly drowned unconscious due to her resistance. Qin Wan and Ji Chi checked her breathing, confirming that she was still alive.

Without further ado, Qin Wan smashed down onto Gu Ci’s abdomen, her occiput hitting Gu Ci’s abdomen heavily. Gu Ci’s pent-up breath is released, and she coughed up seawater, moaning in pain. This blunt force managed to expel the accumulated water in her abdomen, but it also hit her wound.

Ji Chi,”…”

Rong Li,”…”

That was straightforward!

Gu Ci was in so much pain that she almost lost her breath. After expelling the seawater, she finally regained consciousness. All of them had their hands cuffed and their legs bound. Both Gu Ci and Rong Li had gunshot wounds, while Qin Wan and Ji Chi had milder injuries. The two of them attempted to unfasten the handcuffs.

“Do you have anything like a safety pin?” Ji Chi asks.

Gu Ci, in pain, leaned against the side without speaking. When they were captured, they were thoroughly searched, and all concealed weapons were taken away. At this moment, they have nothing on them; it’s an unexpected situation.

Neither Gu Ci nor Qin Wan had the habit of wearing earrings, so they didn’t have any useful items on them.

“Let’s start by untying the ropes on our legs,” Ji Chi suggested, moving to position his legs towards Qin Wan’s back. They tried to free each other from the ropes, and both were relatively skillful at it.

Gu Ci and Rong Li both had gunshot wounds, but Ji Chi and Qin Wan didn’t pay them much attention for now. They moved closer to the cargo hold. It was eerily quiet outside, with only the sound of waves. They could confirm that they were on a ship that had not yet docked.

They searched around the cargo hold for useful items. It was filled with agricultural products. Ji Chi and Qin Wan, in unspoken agreement, each hid an iron nail as they couldn’t find anything else useful.

After circling the cargo hold and finding nothing more, Gu Ci endured the pain. Rong Li’s condition was the worst, with continuous bleeding, and Gu Ci was deeply concerned. Left untreated, the wound was likely to become infected. Ji Chi found a clean towel and used his foot to apply pressure to Rong Li’s wound. Her wound also needs attention!

“Stop struggling. Are you afraid of dying too slowly?” Qin Wan noticed that Rong Li had been struggling to free himself from the handcuffs and kicked his leg.

“Don’t touch me!” Rong Li shouted angrily. He was already on fire, and if he’d calculated and killed by Tang Mingzhou in the cargo hold, he wouldn’t rest in peace.

“Don’t kick him,” Ji Chi intervened.

Qin Wan clicked her tongue. “I didn’t kick his wound. I just wanted to remind him not to exhaust himself. More people mean more bargaining chips. If we die, they’ll just throw us into the sea to feed the fish.”

Everyone was taken aback.

No one expected to be captured like this. They were all filled with anger, with Gu Ci and Ji Chi being the most emotionally stable among them.

“You Black Hawks are such a bunch of useless traitors!” Qin Wan couldn’t help but curse, “What are you good for? Even your encrypted channels were compromised, utterly foolish!”

Rong Li’s voice was hoarse from the pain, but he still retorted, “It’s your stupidity! You believe any piece of information without question. If it weren’t for you rushing onto this ship, it probably wouldn’t have exploded. Who knows who they were targeting!”

Ji Chi gave his leg a kick, “Stop arguing, we’re in the same boat now, quite literally. We need to cooperate wholeheartedly, no time for bickering.”

Qin Wan walked up to him, smirking at his gunshot wound, “Indeed, save your energy. Oh my, this bleeding won’t stop. Are you going to turn into a mummy?” She had just sutured her own head wound after falling into the sea, and the salty seawater seeping into the wound was far from pleasant. So, seeing Rong Li in such a sorry state, Qin Wan couldn’t resist gloating, “What goes around comes around!”

Ji Chi looked at Rong Li’s wound with concern, “Cici, what should we do about his injury?”

“The bullet needs to be removed, stitched up, and we can’t delay. These conditions are cold and damp; the wound will get infected,” Gu Ci says, glancing at her own wound. Her injury also needed attention. She loudly called out, “Is anyone there? Is anyone here?”

“What are you doing? We haven’t discussed a plan yet,” Qin Wan stopped her.

“Who’s discussing a plan here?” Gu Ci retorts. She was clearly just taking pleasure in seeing Rong Li injured. After Gu Ci’s shout, both Qin Wan and Ji Chi sat back down and casually wrapped the ropes around their legs.

Before long, they heard footsteps, and to their surprise, it was Chen Rushi.

“It’s you?” Ji Chi and Rong Li, in particular, couldn’t have imagined this turn of events. After retiring from the underworld, Chen Rushi had established himself independently, no longer relying on Black Hawk or the triad. The Chen family had gradually faded into obscurity in North America, no longer the influential force it was five years ago.

Chen Rushi looked at this group of captives with a light smile. If it were five years ago, he would have never imagined this day..
