Chapter 475 - 471 Mr. Yun Crashes the Conference (Part 2)

"It’s possible, but only if I can take control of the system on the ship to reactivate the signal blocking device," said Hu Fei, staring intently at his laptop screen with a troubled look. "However, they have already taken control of the system, and taking it back from them might take some time."

Ling Chen nodded and said, "Go ahead and do it, and I’ll try to buy you some time."

In the midst of speaking, Zhou Qi’s voice came from the stage, asking in a deep tone, "What kind of cooperation do you have in mind?"

Mr. Yun replied with a faint smile, "I hope you can help me with a few matters. Once everything is settled, I will certainly not let you down. Whether you desire fame or profit, I’ll do my utmost to satisfy all of you. How about that?"

"Not interested."

The voice emerged, and Mr. Yun turned to look at Ling Chen in the audience seating, saying with a mocking smile, "Ling Chen, I’m afraid you don’t have the luxury to refuse right now, unless you want to die here."

"Mr. Yun, have you ever considered your daughter in your actions? If she learns what you’ve done, her character suggests she will never come to terms with it."

Shaking his head, Mr. Yun retorted, "You don’t need to pressure me with her, as I have never regretted choosing this path. Plus, I don’t care whether she understands me or not." Turning to face Zhou Qi, Mr. Yun continued, "I’ll give you three minutes to think. If you can’t give me a satisfactory answer, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

Hearing this, Ling Chen frowned silently, his gaze sweeping across the fully armed team members, pondering his options.

Over thirty people, each armed with guns. Their positioning showed they were experienced combatants, keeping Mr. Yun protected in the center, watching everyone on the stage. Any sudden movements would be immediately noticed.

Capturing them all in a short span of time was a daunting task. Moreover, even if they subdued Mr. Yun, it would do nothing to resolve the current crisis. As long as the bomb remained active, their lives were in constant danger.

Mr. Yun had likely come to terms with life and death by showing up in person.

To fail was to perish.

"Fatty, how’s it going?" After much deliberation, Ling Chen could only place his hope in Hu Fei. If the signal-blocking device could be reactivated, other concerns wouldn’t matter as much.

Hu Fei wiped the sweat from his forehead, his fingers flying across the keyboard. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he cursed, "Damn it."

"I’ve been discovered."

"What?"

"They’ve found out that I’m trying to take control of the system, and they’ve taken the entire ship’s system offline. I can’t even log in now."

"What should we do?"

Hu Fei gave a wry smile and said, "No choice, unless we can get into the cockpit and reboot the system."

After a moment of thought, Ling Chen turned to Zhou Jun and asked, "Are there any other exits in this hall?"

"Yes," Zhou Jun replied, pointing towards the back. "That door there leads to the serving room. There’s a freight elevator in the serving room that goes straight to the cargo hold."

"I’ll find a way to distract those men. You hurry to the cockpit," said Ling Chen, still somewhat uneasy. After all, the cockpit was under the control of Mr. Yun’s men, who likely had heavy firepower. Zhou Jun and Hu Fei alone might not stand a chance. Thinking it over, Ling Chen couldn’t help but turn his gaze towards Song Ge.

Understanding his intention without a word, Song Ge nodded and said, "I’ll go with them."

"Be careful," Ling Chen responded.

Then, Ling Chen stood up, flipped over the seating area, and headed straight towards Mr. Yun.

"Stop!"

Seeing Ling Chen approach, a few combatants looked at him warily, aiming their guns at his forehead as they shouted sharply.

Facing the dark muzzles, Ling Chen remained fearless and continued towards Mr. Yun.

Bang!

A crisp gunshot rang out, and a spark flew up right beside Ling Chen’s foot.

"If you dare to take one more step forward, the next bullet won’t miss," the other party declared coldly.

Ling Chen pointed to his forehead with a challenging expression and said, "If you dare, shoot here."

"Enough!" Mr. Yun waved his hand to signal his men to hold their fire. He then looked at Ling Chen and said, "I don’t want to hurt you, but don’t push your luck. To me, your worth lies only in ensuring my daughter’s safety. And you’re not my only option. If you die, I will find someone else to protect my daughter, so you’d better behave."

"You keep mentioning your daughter. Have you ever thought about what will happen to her if your identity is exposed? Given your status, you must have a lot of enemies. And if she finds out what you’ve been up to, she’ll likely never forgive you. Also, don’t tell me you don’t care—if you truly didn’t, you wouldn’t be going to great lengths to ensure her safety. You gave us three minutes to think, and now I will give you three minutes to consider your options. Either leave with your men, and I’ll act as if nothing happened. Otherwise, if I leave here alive, I will surely tell her everything."

Mr. Yun’s face became stern as he said, "Are you threatening me?"

"You can take it that way."

"Fine," Mr. Yun replied, his tone icing over. "In that case, don’t blame me for not being compassionate. Kill him!"

At his command, a team member quickly aimed at Ling Chen’s forehead, his finger lightly squeezing the trigger.

"Hey!"

However, at that moment, a languid voice suddenly came from the satellite phone in Ling Chen’s hand behind his back.

Hearing that familiar voice, Mr. Yun’s expression shifted, and he quickly pressed down the muzzle of the gun.

Ling Chen grinned and brought the satellite phone in front of him, speaking casually, "Wanqing, do you know who I’m with right now?"

"Who?"

"Mr. Yun. I just found out. Mr. Yun has another identity. Do you want to know what it is?"

"What identity?"

Nanrong Wanqing’s voice came from the satellite phone, causing Mr. Yun’s complexion to turn sour as he coldly ordered, "Take his phone away."

On his command, two combatants rushed towards Ling Chen, reaching to snatch the satellite phone from his hand.

Seeing their actions, a sharp gleam flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes, accompanied by a chilly coldness.

"Wanqing, I have something to do, I’ll talk to you later."

The moment the call ended, Ling Chen tossed the satellite phone straight at the face of one of the men. Then, without waiting for them to react, he quickly struck out with his fists, landing heavy, solid punches on both men.
