I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 880: Seven Full Years

"Alright, you want to know something, go ahead and ask."

Finally, the woman gasped a sentence, and when Ye Chen heard it, it was very evident that he was extremely surprised, and he hadn't expected that a single feather could have such a significant effect.

However, regardless, now this woman has somewhat yielded in front of him. If that's the case, he believes he can open up this topic and continue to talk with this woman properly.

"Alright, since you are willing to cooperate, I will not torture you, and what I've done before still counts. As long as I know what I want to know, then I absolutely won't trouble you anymore. I can even help you leave here, vanish without a trace, adopt a new identity, allowing you to start life anew."

"Alright, go ahead, what exactly do you want to know?"

After saying this, Ye Chen finally let out a sigh of relief. Whether what she said in the end was true or false didn't matter; under these circumstances, Ye Chen believed this woman probably wouldn't deceive him.

Ye Chen then turned to glance at Anying and Lin Yaru, who were actually discussing this matter the whole time. Seeing that Ye Chen had made new progress from his side, the two immediately got up and walked over.

"Alright, I ask you, how long have you been executing your mission here?"

"I just arrived here last month."

"No, I don't mean this city, I mean, how long have you been responsible for monitoring Lin Yaru? Besides, you don't need to lie to me. Actually, before at the steakhouse, I already noticed you all. Every once in a while, you guys would gather, and the venue for those gatherings was the steakhouse here. Am I correct?"

"It seems you have a decent grasp on things. That's right, we have lived in this city for about 7 years."

"7 years? So, seven years ago, you received this order, and came here just to monitor Lin Yaru, is that correct?"

"That's correct. This was an order from above. Here, we didn't need to do anything else, just surveil this woman. Her every move, daily life, including what time she does what, are all under our record."

"In this time, you never received any directive? Just continuing surveillance like this?"

"Correct, never. Anyway, we have integrated well into the local life here, so perhaps this seems like quite a leisurely day."

"Then, if that is the case, shouldn't you have a liaison from above?"

"Yes, indeed there is a liaison."

"If there is a liaison, what's your means of contact with this liaison?"

This was Ye Chen's main concern, and he believed this liaison should play a pivotal role.

So, maybe not much can be extracted from this woman, but from her superiors, the liaison, Ye Chen might be able to uncover more clues.

After Ye Chen said this, the woman simply lowered her head slowly, showing a troubled expression. It seemed like this liaison was a very crucial protection figure for them.

At this moment, she truly couldn't casually reveal the person; if she did, wouldn't it mean their matters might get exposed?

This hesitancy, Ye Chen could actually see it, observing that Lin Yaru was anxious to proceed, but he just gently pushed Lin Yaru aside.

Honestly, Ye Chen's thought process was simple; at this time, it was a psychological battle, and a test of patience. If this person truly has the patience to stay here, then they could easily handle everything.

However, if now they just hastily expose everything, perhaps this information might not truly be obtained by them.

This was his precise judgment on all this.

Actually, Lin Yaru indeed wanted to inquire further, after all, upon hearing that these people had started monitoring her, she truly felt extremely terrified.

Seven years ago, back then Lin Yaru had just returned from abroad, and she had just arrived in that city, which was her first year at work.

At that time, these people had already started surveilling her, and they were well-informed about her movements, yet it seemed they never really exposed any of it.

Seeing Ye Chen stopping her, Lin Yaru understood he must have his own plans. Now, since Ye Chen was the one leading everything, she hoped to truly continue persisting.

"I know what you are thinking deep down. Actually, every team like this has a liaison. The liaison is responsible for conveying superior directives to you, formulating new plans. So, I know, you are merely obeying orders. Even during execution, you might just live locally, monitoring Lin Yaru's every move, then regularly compile these things and report them upwards. Am I right?"

"Usually it's about once a month, we compile things a bit and then directly submit them, but there wouldn't be much involved. Here, we go through life daily with this rhythm."

"So, if I ask you more today, you probably wouldn't be able to answer me, would you?"

After Ye Chen finished saying this, the woman just smiled slightly.

In fact, she also knew Ye Chen's capability, and even within the previous monitoring scope, she gradually incorporated Ye Chen into her surveillance.

She knew he was very capable. Since they understood everything, why waste all this effort on her?

"You already understand, I am just a bottom-rung figure, you've said before, and you know, the information I know is indeed extremely limited."
