Chapter 578 - 576: Something Happened!
"Guda is the northernmost city in Malaya’s Sha State, once the first capital of North Borneo, now the capital of Guda Province."
"Guda is almost covered in coconut groves, its famous specialties include watermelon fields, peanuts, and coconuts, particularly known for the red-skin peanuts, which are a great gift and a New Year snack for Sha State people."
"The scenery in Guda is very beautiful, with the natural environment preserved very well; here you can enjoy the most beautiful sunsets, fiery clouds, delicate white sand beaches, and clear seawater."
"In recent years, the government has worked hard to develop the newest tourist area ’Light Tower’, if time permits, it’s best to go take a look..."
Yan Ya and Qingyue walked slowly along the street, followed by a young man in his twenties with slightly dark skin.
This is the guide they hired.
As for the self-recommended guide from the morning, he was not here.
"Seventh Sister... Seventh Sister..."
As Yan Ya was browsing the stalls on both sides of the street, she suddenly heard someone calling from behind her.
Turning around, she saw Yan Jun catching up, panting heavily.
"Weren’t you planning on resting well? Why are you here too?"
Yan Ya asked, a bit surprised.
Before leaving, she had asked Yan Jun if he wanted to join.
And Yan Jun’s response was that he needed to rest.
Thus, she hired a guide and went out with her daughter.
"Something happened!"
Yan Jun, sweating profusely, panted anxiously.
"What happened?"
Yan Ya asked, puzzled.
"Fifth Sister and that guy Zhang Songkang went together to the blood-red building resembling a Divine Temple."
"She was on the phone with me but suddenly the signal cut out."
"When I dialed again, it indicated the phone was off."
Yan Jun hurriedly recounted the situation.
The sweat on his face was half due to intense running, the other half due to his anxiety.
Upon hearing this, Yan Ya’s brows knitted suddenly.
Yan Tong suddenly lost contact, could she have encountered some accident?
Although her relationship with Yan Tong is just average, they are, after all, sisters by blood...
"Mr. Zhang, your work for today is done!"
Yan Ya glanced at the guide and said expressionlessly.
"Alright, beautiful Miss!"
"I hope you can find your relatives smoothly."
The guide nodded with a smile, offering blessings.
Yan Ya, taking Qingyue, returned to the hotel with Yan Jun.
They tried calling Yan Tong’s phone again, but unfortunately, it was still off.
"Seventh Sister, what should we do now?"
Yan Jun was like an ant on a hot pan, nervously turning around.
He was never a person with ideas, and inevitably panicked in such situations.
"Are you sure Yan Tong went to that island?"
Yan Ya asked aloud.
"Of course!"
Yan Jun nodded vigorously, emphasizing: "She went with Zhang Songkang, even talked to me on the way, saying how nice the scenery was."
"Okay, let’s go too!"
Yan Ya said decisively.
"Alright!"
Yan Jun hesitated a bit but finally nodded in agreement.
Thus, the siblings immediately used various connections to contact rescue boats and teams.
With Yan Ya’s stature and position, she could definitely contact some important people.
Under arrangements from these influential people, rescue boats and personnel were quickly organized.
Not wanting to leave Qingyue alone in Guda, Yan Ya decided to bring the little girl along too.
But when the three arrived at the port, they were stunned.
Near the reserved rescue boat, there were unexpectedly more than ten people gathered.
"I’ll go see what’s happening!"
Yan Jun volunteered, running off to investigate.
A short while later, he returned frowning.
"This group of people, like us, have relatives or friends who went missing heading to that blood-red building."
Without waiting for Yan Ya to ask, Yan Jun spoke out.
After listening, Yan Ya nodded slightly, her pretty face showing a touch of seriousness.
After nearly an hour of tossing about, the rescue fleet finally left the port.
On the rescue boat, apart from the uniformly dressed rescue personnel, everyone else, like Yan Ya and Yan Jun, was there to find their relatives or friends.
"Miss Yan, we meet again!"
Just as Yan Ya was gazing at the sea, feeling gloomy, she suddenly heard someone greeting her.
She turned around and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
The one greeting wasn’t anyone else; it was the captain of the cruise ship they had been on before.
"Hello, Captain!"
Yan Ya politely greeted him.
"Miss Yan, my name is Paul!"
Captain Paul smiled and introduced himself.
He was deeply impressed by this lady from Dragon Country.
Apart from her beautiful appearance, it was also her status.
The fact that the owner of their cruise company had personally sent the cruise and instructed him to look after them meant they weren’t ordinary people.
"Miss Yan, someone from your side went to that island too?"
Paul asked casually.
"Yes!"
Yan Ya nodded.
She didn’t say much, clearly not intending to communicate.
Paul noticed and smiled slightly, indifferent to it.
His gaze turned to Yan Jun and continued, "My nephew, who is also my third officer, also went to that island."
"I warned him before that the architecture on the island is too mysterious and sure to harbor danger."
"Unfortunately, he didn’t heed my advice..."
At this, Paul shrugged helplessly.
"Alas!"
Yan Jun sighed, feeling the urge to complain.
He first sighed, then said: "Our companion also went to that island."
"But she didn’t go by herself, she was deceived into going!"
When he said the word "deceived," Yan Jun gritted his teeth.
If Zhang Songkang were in front of him now, he would punch this idiot without any hesitation.
If it weren’t for that fool Zhang Songkang, Yan Tong wouldn’t have gone to that lousy island?
"This truly is an unpleasant matter!"
Paul shook his head in lament after listening.
He remembered when boarding, there were four in total: three adults and one child.
Now there were just two adults and one child remaining.
Clearly, the one who went to the island was the sophisticated lady.
He also seemed to recall a middle-aged pianist was frequently in contact with her.
It seems that the deceitful person Mr. Yan mentioned was that middle-aged pianist.
Paul pondered secretly.
Yan Jun rarely found someone he could communicate with, chatting happily with Paul for a time.
Meanwhile, Yan Ya continued gazing at the sea.
It was the same route; a day before it was lighthearted, now it was exceedingly gloomy and irritating...
