According to the agreed time, an hour later, we received a call back from the old professor.

"I found it."

On the other end of the phone, the old professor said seriously, "At six o'clock in the afternoon, the company's freighter will depart from the port and head for San Francisco. You must be careful. If you are not sure, retreat first..."

Unexpectedly, the old professor rambled on a lot.

However, the news brought to us is still very useful. At least, we should have a chance to snatch Miller's relics back before those people from the company reach their base camp.

However, this is not an easy task, after all, the entire freighter is full of people from the company.

If there is a slight accident, we may all die there.

"Thank you."

The old professor has done so many things for us, and this sentence alone is naturally not enough to express my gratitude, but now tens of thousands of miles away, I can only reluctantly say thank you.

Hearing this, the old professor Chen Mo hesitated for a while, and then continued, "We have already made a breakthrough in the research on the Origin Stone, but..."

Only then did I understand why the old professor's mother-in-law just said this.

"Just what?"

"Hey, it's hard to say. You'll find out when you come back and take a look, but the result may not be as good as you imagined. You should be mentally prepared..."

Before he could finish speaking, several exclamations suddenly came from the other end of the phone, and then the old professor hung up the phone in a hurry, leaving only a series of beeping sounds.

The phone remained on speakerphone throughout.

The fire monkeys also heard the conversation between me and the old professor clearly, but they all understood what to do next, so when the phone was hung up, we fell into silence.

"This time, take me with you too."

Suddenly, Brother Wang said with a wry smile, "Although I know that I am a burden, I will try not to hold you back this time. I hope you can take me with you. I can help you."

"Too dangerous."

Before I could speak, I rejected his request, "This time is different from before. When we get on the freighter, we will be surrounded by vast oceans, and there is no backup. If there is an accident, there will be no place to run. You'd better go Stay here quietly, as for your son's matter...we will solve it for you."

"I can really help."

But Brother Wang is determined to go with us, "The customs inspection here is very strict, you can't sneak in, but I do have some old acquaintances..."

"But……"

Huo Hou wanted to say something else, but I interrupted him, "Let Brother Wang go with us."

The fire monkey was surprised that I would say that, but he opened his mouth, and he swallowed the words he was about to say.

Let Brother Wang go with us, I also made a plan.

After all, we are seriously short of manpower now, even one more person can give us more strength. Moreover, Brother Wang is eager to think, if he is not allowed to go, he will never be at ease.

"It's three hours until six o'clock."

A relieved smile appeared on Wang Ge's face, "We have to leave in an hour and a half, and I'll contact those acquaintances right now."

With that said, Brother Wang walked outside.

But we all set our sights on Brother Wang's wife. As a wife, she is now under more pressure than Brother Wang.

"I'll just stay here and take care of your friends..."

However, Brother Wang's wife is very understanding. She smiled politely and said, "No matter what happens, I am ready to accept it. I believe in you."

I nodded, sat on the edge of the hospital bed, held Yucheng Yao's hand and fell into deep thought.

This time, only us and Brother Wang went, a total of four people, Yucheng Yao will stay here with Brother Wang's wife, waiting for us to come back.

If the mission fails, we may all lose our lives. At that time, we don't know if we will be able to see her...

The fire monkeys walked out of the ward, leaving enough space for Yucheng and me to get along.

It wasn't until time passed and Brother Wang came back in a hurry that I got up and walked out reluctantly.

"I'll take care of her"

This is the promise Wang Kai's wife made to me before leaving.

This also made me feel a little more at ease. Under the leadership of Brother Wang, I got on the truck and drove to the pier.

After more than an hour's journey, we arrived at the pier. At this moment, there are less than ten minutes left before the departure of the freighter, but Brother Wang's efficiency in handling affairs has impressed us.

After seeing Brother Wang, the guards and other customs officers along the way quickly chose to let him go, and the journey went unimpeded.

In the distance, several cranes can be seen, putting extra-large cargo boxes on a freighter that is about to depart.

"I didn't expect you to have such a hand."

Fire Monkey glanced at Brother Wang, pretending to be relaxed and teasing a few words.

"It must be useful to be sent here by the organization."

Brother Wang didn't take credit.

I didn't stop the two of them from having an unhealthy conversation. After all, this might be our last chance to relax before boarding the freighter.

Coming to the working crane, Brother Wang skillfully opened a container, turned out the contents and threw them into the sea, and then greeted us.

"Come in."

It's a good way to sneak in.

Afterwards, we walked into the cargo box one after another. Although there were still a lot of goods left in it, the space vacated just now was enough for us to stay.

The moment the cargo compartment was closed, Brother Wang took out his flashlight.

And the four of us squatted in the firebox, watching the flashlights and fell silent.

The fire monkey was the first to be unbearable, he decided to find something to do, and in this small space, there were not many places to move around, but he still found some fun for himself.

It was easy to open the cardboard box next to it.

Inside the box, there are a lot of bottles and cans in the foam paper partition. When you take it out, you can see that they are all high-quality canned fruits.

"At least you don't have to worry about eating."

The fire monkey said pretending to be relaxed, and then handed each of Wang Ge and Li Xin a can, as for me, I didn't have the slightest appetite.

A few minutes later, we felt a violent shaking at the same time, accompanied by a tooth-piercing sound of metal rubbing, I knew that the cargo box we were in was being sent to the freighter.

But for us, if we fail, this freighter may become the last stop of our lives.

After a while, as the violent shaking disappeared, we were sent to the freighter.

Now, as soon as it gets dark, we can start to move.
