Chapter 28.2 The Building From Three Thousand Years Ago

Zhang Haiyan still pretended to be in a coma. He knew that he could wake up now that Warner had dismissed the thought that he wasnt Steven. But it would seem too suspicious if he immediately woke up.

What do we do now? Hudson asked. That womans been hoping wed agree to a bigger deal. Why didnt you agree, Mr. Warner? I heard that she promised to take us to look at an ancient underground building from three thousand years ago. Isnt that our purpose?

She only promised to help us enter, but we couldnt take anything out. Whats the point of that?

Warner continued smoking his cigar. At this stage, we cant easily agree to anything she offers. We have to wait for her patience to run out, and then shell show us some sincerity. At that point, itll be easier for us to get more generous terms. We cant think about what she can give. We need to think about what we want so that we can move forward without any obstacles. Before she can agree to our additional requirements, were only responsible for bringing her to Xiamen alive. We absolutely wont take another step before that.

Hudson nodded.

Hudson immediately poured a glass of water so that Zhang Haiyan could rinse his mouth. What exactly is going on? Warner asked.

The man who said there were robbers on the ship made me swallow a bag of something. Zhang Haiyan said with difficulty. He said that if I didnt do as I was told, he would cast a spell and break the bag so that the blades inside would penetrate my stomach. Its sorcery. He wanted me to deliver the notes.

Hudson and Warner looked at each other, and Hudson said, Indeed, it seems like theres something off about this man. Maybe we should look into it?

Absolutely not. Otherwise, we may fall for that womans trap. Well give the information to her. Whether its true or not, shell feel greater pressure, which will force her to negotiate the terms with us. Warner leaned back in his chair and looked at the sea outside.

Can I go find the ships doctor myself? Zhang Haiyan was really lucky this time, and Warner let him go.
