"Alright, I understand, Mr. Kong. Rest assured, we guarantee to complete the mission this time, and certainly won't disappoint you again."

"Enough, we have been hanging out for quite some time. Hurry up and get ready. Then, in these next two days, we will be ready to retreat at any time. Make sure everything is arranged properly, there will be someone to meet you when the time comes."

"Okay, Mr. Kong, we understand."

After finishing their conversation, several people stood up, bowed respectfully to him, and then quickly left the place.

Now that the strategic environment has undergone some new changes, they must adapt to all these anew.

And whether they can truly adapt, it seems, remains an unsolved mystery for them.

Ye Chen, together with Lin Yaru, drove north. After about two hours, they parked their car steadily in a parking lot near the dock.

This should be Ye Chen's first visit here. In the past, he had little interaction with this area, so he wouldn't have come here for no reason.

Looking ahead, there was the boundless sea, but it was obscured by many buildings. After so many years of development, these should all still be developing.

After parking the car, Ye Chen and Lin Yaru got out of the car. Lin Yaru, after alighting, meaningfully looked around, then took a deep breath.

"I really didn't expect this. It's all changed so much. Over 20 years ago, I came to this dock more than once with my mother, but back then, the dock was very dilapidated. I never imagined that after so many years, it would be completely transformed."

"You mean, back then, this dock was controlled by your family enterprise, right?"

"That's right. Even the establishment of this dock was initiated by our family. I remember these things very clearly because my dad told me bit by bit. That is to say, without our family enterprise, this dock wouldn't have made it to today."

"So now, the people taking over this dock, do you still have any connection with them?"

"It's been severed long ago, and even if there were connections, given my grandfather's character, he wouldn't actively stay in touch with them. We are currently conducting a covert investigation, so remember, we must stay discreet."

"Mhmm, do you still remember the general direction?"

"I'm not sure, let's go up and take a closer look. We haven't reached the dock area yet. I've heard that the dock now controls an area of several dozen kilometers around it, we're just near a parking lot now, let's walk there and check out the situation."

"Does that mean we still have some distance to cover?"

"I glanced at the map, it should be about right, walking there will take around 20 minutes."

"Can't we drive there directly? Don't they have a parking area inside? I think it shouldn't be like this."

"Inside, there definitely is a parking area, and trucks coming in and out wouldn't park here then carry their goods over there, that would significantly increase labor costs."

"So, you mean there is one, but can we get in?"

"Yes, our car doesn't have a pass, and it's not one of their vehicles. I think if we try to force our way in, we will definitely alert them, so there's no need to do so now."

"Then if that's the case, have you thought about what our identity is now? Tourists? Tourists would not be allowed in either, especially further inside which involves their company affairs."

"Don't worry, I've already made preparations and arrangements. Additionally, the security at the gate isn't very strict, so I think we may find an opportunity there."

After listening, Ye Chen just nodded. Sometimes women really do think of the details.

He only started making preparations after coming here and seeing the situation, whereas he had completely overlooked these matters before coming.

It seems that last night, Lin Yaru must have done sufficient preparation for today, otherwise, she wouldn't have handled everything so naturally.

"Haha, I really neglected that point. Since you can manage to get in, then we no longer need to worry about these matters. Let's go, it's in that direction."

"Yes, the last time I was here, this place was just a desolate grassland with nothing on it, and being near the sea, the soil was saline-alkali, nothing could grow, so it was always left abandoned."

"It was probably due to poor economic conditions at that time. Look, they have now turned it into a parking lot, including the dock and warehouses, these basic facilities. I think they should still be adequate for current logistics needs."

"Yeah, it's basically like that."

Talking, the two walked leisurely towards that direction.

Because it was in the factory area and still morning, there were quite a few passing vehicles; the two of them walking here indeed seemed somewhat conspicuous.

After all, there was still a distance to cover and generally people wouldn't just walk.

These passing vehicles would occasionally stop and take a glimpse, but they didn't think too much about the appearance of these two unfamiliar men and women.

Who could imagine that a conspiracy laid more than 20 years ago, at this moment, was gradually drawing them closer, and already, step-by-step, pulling him into this bottomless abyss.

After 20 minutes of hurrying, Ye Chen reached a factory gate. They noticed that the gate was very large, and even had an extensible automatic door, which couldn't be opened without someone operating it, making it impossible for them to enter.

Upon reaching here, Ye Chen turned his head to look at Lin Yaru.
