Chapter 108 Guests (Part 3)
The Golden Sand Beach scenic area in the eastern suburbs of Lucena.
After Anthony and Christine arrived here, they found that there were quite a few tourists here, but not many white tourists.
Farewell to the tricycle driver.
The two bought tickets and entered the scenic area.
Many locals with their families also come here to play.
On the beach, the fine sand reflects a faint golden light under the sunlight. The waves beat against the beach, and countless white foams disappear and are reborn over and over again.
The salty sea breeze and warm sunshine make people want to lie down and quietly feel this peaceful scenery.
Anthony bought freshly squeezed coconut juice on the beach street and found that the prices here were indeed not high. Two cups of freshly squeezed coconut juice cost only 8 pesos.
Christine sat under a parasol, holding her mobile phone, turned on the telescope function, and observed Swallow Island 3 kilometers away.
There were no strange buildings on the island, nor was there any obvious human activity.
"What do you think of that driver?"
Kristine put down her phone and took a sip of coconut juice: “No problem, I observed his micro-expressions throughout the whole process, and there was nothing abnormal, what about you?”
"Same, his heartbeat is very steady, with no signs of nervousness." Anthony answered while listening calmly to any movement around him.
Christine put down the coconut juice and said, "So, that guy really disappeared in the waters of Swallow Island?"
"Not necessarily. It's possible that the other party deliberately released false information."
"Do you want to go to that island and take a look?"
Anthony shook his head. "No, what if it's a trap ? We're not here to find those unlucky people."
The two of them did not notice that two flies were clinging to the frame of the parasol, quietly listening to their conversation.
The tricycle driver who was waiting for passengers at the entrance of the scenic spot slowly released a dragonfly from the toilet nearby, then returned to the tricycle as if nothing had happened and waited for passengers.
Christine and Anthony didn't know yet that they were being targeted.
evening.
The sun sets.
The two took a taxi back to Fengrao Hotel.
As soon as they returned to the hotel room, they both felt dizzy.
Fifteen hours later, in a manor in the suburbs.
When Anthony woke up from his coma, he immediately discovered that his clothes and all the belongings on his body had been stripped off.
He saw Christine, who was also tied up, and Anthony looked very unhappy.
"What happened? Was I exposed? Impossible. I didn't use the Black Ship's channels to come here this time, nor did I contact anyone from the Black Ship. How could I be exposed..."
"Is it an accident? Am I kidnapped? Calm down, calm down first, someone is coming..." Two footsteps appeared in his ears.
The alloy door slowly opened, and two unknown people in protective clothing appeared in front of Anthony. One of them took out a syringe.
"Oh! No no... Man, I'm willing to pay the ransom, just don't hurt us..." Anthony shouted in pretended panic.
However, the soldier did not pause at all. He directly drew a tube of blood from Anthony and then another tube of blood from Christine.
Christine, who was stung, finally woke up. She quickly calmed down, looked at Anthony, and tried to use the rope-untying technique to untie the ropes.
"The rope-escaping technique is useless," another soldier reminded calmly.
For a moment, Christine's body stiffened slightly, and then she wanted to quibble, but after meeting the soldier's emotionless gaze, she felt a chill in her heart.
At this time, Anthony also realized that the other party might have known his background, so he asked calmly, "Who are you?"
"It's not important." The soldier still looked calm.
"I want to know how you found us? Can you satisfy the curiosity of a loser like me?" Christine seemed to have given up on herself.
The soldier looked at her and said, "Why do you think I would tell you?"
Christine showed a heartbroken expression, and her uncovered body was extremely tempting: "Are you afraid of even a prisoner?"
"I have no interest in the few pounds of fat on your chest."
Hearing this, a trace of anger flashed through Christine's heart, but he also felt extremely panicked, because he found that there was really no fluctuation in the eyes of the man in front of him.
If she wasn't sure that the other person was not blind, she would have suspected that this guy was blind or a gay.
Christine had always been proud of her figure and appearance, but they did not cause any reaction from the other party, which made her doubt her life a little.
Anthony fell into silence.
At this moment, he was very conflicted. He could probably guess what would happen next, and he estimated that torture would be inevitable.
"No, I can't just do nothing. I have to find a way to inform the headquarters..." After Anthony understood the situation, he immediately showed a frightened expression and begged for mercy:
"Please don't kill me. I am willing to cooperate and confess everything..."
Christine glanced at Anthony and immediately understood his plan. She immediately cooperated: "I am willing to confess everything as long as you don't kill me. Please..."
But the soldier's next words made the two of them feel like they were falling into an icy cave.
"The signal transmitter and suicide device on your heart have been removed. There is no need to act here."
What? Anthony's pupils shrank sharply, and then he looked at his chest again, but he didn't find any traces of sutures. He said with an uncertain expression:
"Why bother lying to me? If you want to know something from me, I hope you can get some preferential treatment. Otherwise, if I die, you will get nothing."
"Just let one of you die and let me see." The soldier said nonchalantly.
Anthony did not want to give up. He continued to work hard: "No, my request is not excessive. Besides, I have a secret account in UBS. If you are willing to let me go, I can give you all the money in it."
"Why don't you give up? Is this the human desire to survive? Since we know the signal transmitter in your body, do you think we don't know the function of that signal transmitter? Just stay still!"
After saying that, the two soldiers took the blood samples and left.
But Anthony looked pale, obviously he had made a complete mistake.
The signal transmitter installed in their bodies cannot communicate over long distances. It is a miniature shortwave signal transmitter with an effective communication distance of about one kilometer.
In such a closed environment, the communication distance is only about one hundred meters at most.
The reason why he tried every possible means was to make the other party relax his vigilance and then take him to a place with electronic communication equipment.
The signal transmitter in its body can send out a specific shortwave signal so that surrounding electronic devices can receive it.
This is possible because all communications and CPU chips under the America system have been secretly engraved with some backdoors when the chips leave the factory.
These backdoors are at the physical level and cannot be detected or blocked by software.
The core chips of mobile phones and computers currently used around the world are all under the American system. Whether it is chips from Intel, AMD, Texas Instruments, or TSMC, MediaTek, and Samsung, none of them are immune.
This is also the reason why the Sapiens Company does not allow the use of external communication equipment in its internal core areas.
Perhaps a mobile phone, a sports bracelet, or a pair of wireless headphones can enter the laboratory and steal confidential files from the laboratory computers. This is indeed hard to guard against.
Therefore, no matter how eloquent Anthony was, he would never be able to access any communication equipment in front of the soldiers who strictly followed the procedures.
