Chapter 527: Bomb on Board
Translator: _Min_
Gu Dai faced the men in black, her voice tinged with defiance, “I’m about to die, and you still refuse to tell me who you are?”
The man in black scoffed coldly, “You don’t deserve to know who I am. If you really want to know, then wait until you’re dead and ask your Gu family members!”
A flicker of determination flashed in Gu Dai’s eyes.
The man in black declared coldly, “If it weren’t for our decision to throw you into the sea, I would have killed you right here and now!”
With those words, he opened the door and left.
As he opened the door, Gu Dai, despite the discomfort of the bright light, tried to look at him but saw he was wearing a mask, making it impossible to see his face.
Feeling a pang of disappointment, she then heard the men outside speaking.
The mechanical voice ordered, “Throw her into the sea later.”
A man responded, “We will complete the task!”
The mechanical voice added, “Right, set up the camera later and record the whole process of her being thrown into the sea. I want to release it for everyone to see how miserably the esteemed Miss Gu dies!”
Gu Dai, judging by the diminishing voices, guessed that the man with the mechanical voice had left.
Then, a man with a normal voice instructed, “Find a good position for the camera; we’ll start soon.”
His subordinates responded affirmatively, “Yes.”
Gu Dai, seizing the moment, loosened the ropes binding her hands and reached into her pocket, gripping something tightly.
The door opened, and those who had captured her led her outside.
The blazing sunlight stung her eyes, but she forced them open, staring at her captors.
The lead man in a suit coldly ordered, “Throw her into the sea.”
Gu Dai let out a light laugh, “Are you sure?”
Her words captured everyone’s attention, their responses scattered, “What else could you possibly do?”
“Your hands and feet are tied up; do you think you can escape?”
“Miss Gu, just accept your fate. You’re destined to die today.”
Gu Dai quickly threw the spices she had held, causing them to inhale it through their noses.
The men in suits paused, then asked coldly, “What did you throw at us?”
Gu Dai scared them, “Poison. If you don’t take the antidote within half an hour, you will die.”
The men in suits, startled and then angry, declared, “The antidote must be on her. Let’s take it from her!”
They rushed at Gu Dai but collapsed halfway, weakened, “What’s happening? Is it the drug taking effect?”
Gu Dai glanced at them and then untied her feet, preparing to leave.
The phone of the lead man in a suit rang, and he answered hastily, “I…”
Gu Dai heard the furious voice of the man with the mechanical voice, “Incompetents! You’re all useless! How could so many of you fail against one woman? Capture her now!”
The man in pain replied, “We’ve all been poisoned. We lose strength with any exertion, and in half an hour, we’ll die!”
The mechanical voice instructed, “I’ve given you a powder too, throw it at her!”
Following the order, the man hastily threw the powder at Gu Dai.
Gu Dai didn’t dodge; she had anticipated their move and had prepared by blocking relevant acupoints to shield against the powder.
But suddenly, she was pulled into a warm embrace.
Smelling the familiar scent, she felt an overwhelming sense of safety and looked up in disbelief, “Su Ting, how are you here?”
Su Ting, relieved to see Gu Dai unharmed, softly responded, “Daidai, let’s get you out of here first, then I’ll answer your questions, okay?”
Gu Dai nodded, “Okay.”
The men in suits were stunned, not expecting someone to have boarded the shipf, and even more so, Su Ci’s presence was a shock.
How could the young master be here?
Su Ci glanced at them coldly, then tenderly said to Gu Dai, “Daidai, let’s go.”
Gu Dai noticed Su Ci, nodded, and followed them away.
In a secluded house by the Polin Sea, the man with the mechanical voice fixated on the screen, coldly ordered, “We can’t let Gu Dai escape. Detonate the bomb on the ship now!”
The man holding the controller hesitated, whispering, “But Young Master Su is still on the ship. If we detonate it, he might…”
After a few seconds of silence, the man with the mechanical voice coldly commanded, “Even if he is there, detonate it!”
