Shen Feng swayed unsteadily after a glass of red wine at the banquet. Gong Changfa, unable to bear Shen Feng's embarrassing display, suggested returning to the warship. Qin Kewei also agreed; she couldn't understand the English spoken by others and wasn't gaining any important information at the banquet, so it was better to leave sooner.
As they left, Shen Feng staggered along, saying, "Don't look at me swaying now, I definitely won't fall. Let me tell you, I'm practicing drunken fist. Have you seen the movies? Drunken fist is so famous, you must know it, right?"
Qi Lingshan sighed helplessly, supporting Shen Feng as she said, "Alright, alright, we know you're not drunk. Let's go quickly. Get a good sleep on the ship, and don't drink next time!"
Qi Lingshan had seen people with low alcohol tolerance before, but she hadn't expected Shen Feng's to be so poor. After all, he'd only had one glass of red wine, about two liang, and he was already staggering. His alcohol tolerance was truly not great.
Gong Changfa couldn't help but glance at the people at the banquet. They had already started dancing on the ship. As expected of the superpowered individuals from developed countries, they knew how to enjoy themselves when it was time to enjoy, no matter where they were.
"I hope you continue to enjoy yourselves. As for the meteorite, we'll gladly accept it. In the meantime, the more internal strife you have, the happier I'll be," Gong Changfa thought to himself.
Afterward, the six of them set sail to return to the warship, with Gong Changfa at the helm.
"Di Zhen Gao Gang, Yi Pai Xi Shan Qian Gu Xiu!" As the small boat approached the warship, a loud shout suddenly came from the ship, clearly a secret code.
Gong Changfa also gathered his strength and loudly responded, "Men Chao Da Hai, San Jiang He Shui Wan Nian Liu."
Having successfully exchanged the secret code, Gong Changfa and the others were about to board the ship. Shen Feng walked at the front, swaying slowly. Gong Changfa, following behind, could no longer stand it. He grabbed Shen Feng's ankle, yanked him, and forcefully tossed Shen Feng onto the ship.
Shen Feng, still dizzy, didn't have time to react. He was thrown onto the warship's deck by Gong Changfa. Fortunately, his skin was thick, and he wasn't injured.
Shen Feng, now on the ship, was quite unhappy. He pointed at Gong Changfa, who had climbed up afterward, and said, "You scoundrel, taking advantage of my condition! When I sober up, you'll see how I deal with you. You can only make a move on me when I'm like this!"
"A drunkard. Don't drink anymore in the future, your behavior when drunk is also not good!" Gong Changfa shook his head helplessly.
After everyone arrived on the ship, they suddenly noticed something was wrong. The personnel left on duty were all sitting quietly on the deck, not making a sound. Moreover, even the people from the Bureau of Superpowered Affairs were on the warship. Logically, the Bureau of Superpowered Affairs all lived on the ferry and wouldn't casually visit the warship without reason.
"Did something happen? Why are you all gathered here?" Gong Changfa quickly asked.
Zhu Kai stood up from the deck and said, "Boss, we caught a spy, someone who can use invisibility. He wanted to scout our situation. Xiao Hu heard him, so we all rushed forward and captured him, waiting for you to return and decide his fate."
When Gong Changfa heard that such a thing had happened, that someone had come to spy, he was furious.
"Where is he? What exactly happened?" Gong Changfa asked with a grim expression.
Zhu Kai entered the cabin and dragged out a man. He was a fair-skinned man, tightly bound by ropes, with an arrogant expression on his face. "You yellow-skinned monkeys, hurry up and let me go! Believe it or not, I'll go back and tell the General to deal with all of you!"
This was spoken in English, but many people in the Chosen Bureau had received a good education and could understand English perfectly. At this moment, many faces turned ugly. To be called a yellow-skinned monkey was a direct insult to Asians.
"How dare you speak so rudely! Slap him!" Gong Changfa said coldly.
Gong Changfa's temper was relatively good when dealing with his own people. Even when dealing with the Bureau of Superpowered Affairs and the superpowered individuals from Yuzhou like Shen Feng, he was fine. But now, to be mocked by a white foreigner, how could he tolerate it?
Xu Huwei immediately stepped forward, swung his arm, and began slapping the spy. "Slap! Slap!" The slaps were loud, and they made crisp sounds when they landed on the spy's face. Although Xu Huwei's superpower was only eavesdropping, his physical fitness was that of a genuine superpowered individual. As he slapped, it became even more satisfying.
Chang Haojie walked over to Shen Feng and helped him sit up from the deck. Smelling the alcohol on Shen Feng, he couldn't help but complain, "You already have a low alcohol tolerance, and you kept drinking. You deserve this."
Taking advantage of the moment, Zhu Kai also explained what had happened earlier. Not long after Gong Changfa and his group went to the banquet, everyone on the ship was still having dinner. The dinner was simple: self-heating hot pots. Placing the heating bag in water could generate continuous heat, allowing them to enjoy a hot meal. It was at this moment that a sneaky superpowered individual appeared.
It was already late, and people on the ship were talking on deck by candlelight. There were no fish in the Silent Sea, so they couldn't even fish. Fortunately, there were no mosquitoes at sea, otherwise, no one could stand the heat and the mosquitoes.
The deck was lively at the time. For Xu Huwei, hiding in a corner, this was the most difficult period. His superpower was to capture sound waves, thus achieving the effect of eavesdropping. Therefore, the noisier the environment, the more uncomfortable he was, because he would passively capture surrounding sound waves, regardless of what others were saying, he could hear it all.
Thus, Xu Huwei's favorite place was actually a soundproof room, where he could sleep soundly without being disturbed, without constantly listening to the noise around him. The sounds that others took for granted would be constantly amplified in his ears.
While eating, Xu Huwei heard faint footsteps approaching from his side. These footsteps were very light, and when they landed on the deck, almost no one noticed them because everyone was eating, and they wouldn't pay attention to the slight sounds around them.
However, Xu Huwei opened his eyes and looked in the direction the footsteps were coming from. He found no one there, but he was absolutely certain that he had indeed heard footsteps!
This sent a chill down Xu Huwei's spine. He hadn't expected someone to board the ship so stealthily at this time. He immediately shouted, "Assassin! Everyone be careful!"
The thirty people on the warship were all superpowered individuals. Upon hearing that an assassin had appeared, they immediately put down their self-heating hot pots and retrieved their weapons.
Zhu Kai also unleashed his superpower, releasing a berserk electric wave, which put everyone into a bloodthirsty state.
Xun Yan also quickly asked, "Where is the assassin?"
"He's on our ship! He's invisible, so you can't see him. I can hear his footsteps, on the deck!" Xu Huwei said calmly.
At this moment, Fang Qinghao's voice came from the ferry next to them, "What's going on over there? Do you need help?"
Zhu Kai took a moment to reply, "There's an invisible assassin who has infiltrated our ship. You guys be careful too!"
Upon hearing this reply, Fang Qinghao became suspicious. An invisible assassin? Could it be Dr. Li? She could be invisible, couldn't she?
So, Fang Qinghao quickly said, "Don't make a move yet. It might be Dr. Li. She might have just gone to your ship for fun."
Fang Qinghao was worried that they might accidentally injure Li Keyi. If they hit Li Keyi, it would truly be a case of the dragon king's temple being flooded, and the family not recognizing each other.
However, Li Keyi suddenly walked out from the cabin and said, "Nonsense, why would I go to their ship? I've been reading inside the whole time!"
With Li Keyi's appearance, the situation became clear. Someone had indeed infiltrated the warship, and it was a superpowered individual who could turn invisible. Li Keyi already had countermeasures for invisible people and directed, "Chosen Bureau, sprinkle flour on the deck. As long as blank footprints appear, that's where the assassin is."
In the end, the Chosen Bureau successfully captured the invisible person according to Li Keyi's instructions.
After the entire incident was explained, Gong Changfa understood the whole process and became somewhat angry. He asked the assassin, "Who sent you? Was it Tom? Why did he send you?"
Xu Huwei had slapped the assassin more than twenty times. The powerful force of a superpowered individual was unleashed, and the assassin was immediately beaten to the point where his teeth were scattered on the ground, literally. The assassin's molars were all knocked out by Xu Huwei and scattered everywhere. The assassin's mouth was full of blood, and he looked quite pathetic.
The assassin did not answer Gong Changfa's question but continued to clamor, "If you have the guts, kill me! If you kill me, then the news you've been hiding about the meteorite will be exposed. The General will definitely avenge me. If you have the guts, kill me!"
Hearing the assassin's clamoring, Gong Changfa immediately became angry, not because of the assassin, but because of his subordinates. "Do you have any brains at all? The news about the meteorite is so important, didn't I tell you to keep it secret! Secretly!? You were still discussing these things during dinner. Don't you take my words seriously?"
The people from the Chosen Bureau did not answer. They also knew they had made a mistake. The main reason was that no one expected someone to board the ship and eavesdrop in broad daylight. If Xu Huwei hadn't discovered the assassin's presence in time, the news would have been completely leaked by now.
At this moment, Qin Kewei stepped forward. She said seriously, "Now is not the time to assign blame. We should think about how to ensure complete secrecy! I believe that no matter which side these eavesdroppers are from, they cannot be allowed to live!"
Gong Changfa looked at his subordinates with indignation, shaking his head and sighing helplessly, "What a bunch of useless people. I still have to clean up your mess!"
With that, Gong Changfa walked over to the assassin. The assassin was still clamoring, "If you really kill me, then our General will know the news. Before I set out, the General already said that if I don't return, then he will assume you have found the meteorite. Therefore, killing me is not a good choice. Now, you should cooperate with us honestly. As long as we cooperate, you'll get at least a third of the meteorite."
To this day, the assassin was still fantasizing about achieving his goal by pressuring the other party. In his opinion, North America's military strength was the world's number one, and others could only submit to him.
However, Gong Changfa said coldly, "So, the person behind you is Tom? I admit, he is a formidable opponent. He invited us to a banquet on the surface, and secretly sent you to gather information. He is very cunning. But you have misjudged me. I will complete the goal I have set!"
After speaking, Gong Changfa struck the assassin's head with his palm. The white man immediately collapsed on the deck, his body twitching uncontrollably.
Zhu Kai looked at Gong Changfa's actions and couldn't help but ask, "Boss, if you kill the assassin now, won't our objective be exposed? You're being a bit impulsive."
Gong Changfa glanced at Zhu Kai and said indifferently, "I didn't kill him. I just damaged some of his brain tissue, turning him into an idiot. So, he doesn't know anything now. Next, this person should disappear!"
