Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

An Xiaohai returned to the villa, picked up a book and flipped through it, his mind preoccupied with other things; Xu Congzhou sat opposite An Xiaohai the whole time, not saying a word for several hours, just keeping him company;

Xie Dan disassembled the two Uzis and cleaned them thoroughly. He had tried out many different kinds of guns, but in the end, his favorites were still these two Uzi submachine guns.

Xu Tianyou was nowhere to be found. He had called An Xiaohai and learned that the explosives had been purchased, but there was a lot of them. Now, one box under each plane was not enough, and Xu Tianyou was working overtime with the airport staff to modify them.

Li Maocai came down several times, but seeing that the three of them seemed uninterested, he wisely refrained from joining them.

When An Xiaohai came to his senses, it was already 3 a.m. He called Xu Tianyou, but the guy was still busy, so it seemed he wouldn't be coming back today.

That's good, it saves us the trouble of traveling.

An Xiaohai chatted with Xu Congzhou and Xie Dan, ate some food, and woke up at 1 p.m. After washing up and having lunch, he quickly tidied up and left the villa, where the car was already waiting.

Li Maocai was sitting in the courtyard when he saw An Xiaohai walk out of the villa. He quickly stood up and nodded excitedly at him.

"Ah Cai, are you sure you want to come with us? Actually, you can go back to the Rhodes Islands first. Xiao Tian and I have recently become obsessed with flying planes. We'll fly around and have some fun, and then we'll come to the Rhodes Islands to meet you."

"I'll still follow you. You're our cash cow now. The boss knows you left Thailand today and is already waiting for you on the island. A lot of the brothers are there waiting. They all want to meet the legendary Brother Hai."

"Oh, so after all this time, you're afraid I'll run away?!" An Xiaohai's smile was so bright.

"Haha, if Brother Hai insists on saying that, then I have no choice but to admit it! Haha, anyway, this time, I'm going to bring you back no matter what, hahaha..."

"Alright then, since you insist, come with me."

"Okay, Hai-ge, please!"

Li Maocai, with a fawning smile, trotted over to open the car door for An Xiaohai. An Xiaohai didn't stand on ceremony and got into the car with a smile. Li Maocai quickly followed.

Xu Congzhou and Xie Dan were already waiting in the car. When An Xiaohai got in, Xu Congzhou gently patted the partition, and the driver started the car and headed towards Manchester.

Li Maocai wanted to say something more, but when he saw that the three people in the car had closed their eyes at the same time, he had no choice but to give up.

Rhodes Prison, Level 2 of the dungeon

The prison guard who delivered the food had just left when Kunji sat up abruptly, his hand trembling slightly, and the handcuffs fell off.

Having spent so much time in this dark and gloomy dungeon, Kunji had learned to tell time. Since he couldn't see, he would listen; the sounds coming from the first floor of the dungeon were the best reference.

The guards at Rhodes Prison change shifts at 8:30 a.m. and 7 p.m., a fact that Kunji had already figured out when he was on the second floor.

Every time shifts change, a slight commotion can be heard overhead; this is probably the sound of the prison guards checking each cell as they change shifts. Food is delivered to the second floor of the dungeon once a day, which is also done during the guards' shift change.

At this moment, the prison guards had already brought food, and the noise overhead was gradually subsiding, which meant that no one would enter the second level of the dungeon for the rest of the day.

Kunji increasingly understood that the second floor of the dungeon was a death row cell. The reason why the prison guard he had bribed brought him a sumptuous meal was not because he was kind; he was sending him off.

"About four hours left, that should be enough!"

Kunji climbed to the wall, leaned against it, and struggled to his feet. His knees were in excruciating pain, but it was still within a tolerable range.

Kunji, supporting himself against the wall, slowly moved towards the exit step by step.

There was a set of steps in front of the iron gate at the exit. Kunji climbed up using both his hands and feet. Peeking out through the gap at the bottom of the iron gate, he could see a passage. Lights shone from the corner of the passage, and there were shadowy figures moving around. There must have been guards there.

Kunji climbed down the stairs again, leaned against the wall, and walked to the row of special cubicles to take a look. The doors and locks were indeed very new, and there was a faint smell of machine oil.

The lock was a rotary combination lock with a full six-digit combination, but this kind of lock was useless to Kunji. He opened the combination lock easily just by feeling the subtle sensation from turning the dial.

Kunji opened the door a crack, lit a lighter, and peered inside. His brows immediately furrowed. Behind the door was a lavishly furnished room, but no one was inside.

"What the hell is this?!..."

Kunji didn't bother to think too much about it. These cubicles were probably irrelevant to the mission, so he quietly closed the door and opened all the combination locks as he walked through them.

Now all that's left are the water dungeons. There are probably only five cells in those water dungeons with people inside. Kunji saw it all clearly: the last time the prison guards came down to give injections, and this time the prison guards came to deliver food.

Kunji arrived at the first water dungeon where someone was imprisoned. He pressed his ear against the iron door and listened for a while. There was indeed someone inside. The person's breathing was heavy, like that of a wild beast.

The person in the water dungeon must have heard Kunji moving over, because his breathing became increasingly rapid.

After thinking about it, Kunji decided not to disturb him. If he opened the door, the guy would start yelling and causing trouble.

Kunji moved to the second water dungeon where people were imprisoned and listened for a long time, but there was no sound from inside. Kunji finally managed to pull open the rusty iron door with great effort. When he lit a lighter, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

A person was hanging in the water dungeon, his upper body bare, his body covered in wounds, his lower body submerged in water, his head drooping and motionless.

After looking closely at his face for a while, Kunji immediately withdrew.

This person is very young, and his appearance doesn't look like that of a Chinese person at all; he shouldn't be the target this time.

Ten minutes later, Kunji opened the third door. In this water dungeon, there was also a person hanging, but this person was so thin that he was skin and bones, and looked terrible. His dirty and messy hair hung down to his waist.

Kunji's heart stirred, and he stepped forward to lift the man's face with his hand. The man looked very much like a Chinese person, but he did not react to Kunji's actions at all. Kunji patted him gently for a long time before he finally opened his eyes a crack.

Looking into this man's eyes, Kunji felt a chill run down his spine.

His eyes were empty and unfocused, devoid of any normal human emotion. Kunji tried to communicate with him for a long time, but to no avail.

Kunji sighed inwardly and had no choice but to leave first. It took him quite a while to open the fourth door.

The person hanging in this water dungeon was not much better off than the previous one, but when Kunji lit the lighter, this person actually struggled to raise his head and tried to open his eyes.

Kunji felt a surge of excitement and, disregarding the pain in his leg, gritted his teeth and limped over to the man.

Their eyes met, and suddenly an extremely strong yet complex emotion burst forth from the man's eyes.

"Sunflower?" Kun Ji uttered the first code name in a trembling voice, using an extremely low volume.

The man stared intently at Kunji, without any reaction.

"Tianya Yun?"

The person still did not react.

"Dandelion?"

The man seemed to pause for a moment, and then he actually blinked gently!

Dungeon Level 1

The prison guards who had just changed shifts were inspecting the cells one by one. Because many people had been transferred down from above, the environment on the first floor of the dungeon was extremely bad, and the guards' moods were naturally extremely bad as well.

After checking around, the two prison guards found nothing wrong. Just as they were about to go up for some fresh air, they suddenly heard an extremely muffled yet very faint sound, like someone hitting the wall with their fist or head.

Normally, such sounds wouldn't be unusual; many prisoners would do this when they were driven to mental breakdown. But this sound was different; it was too regular and the rhythm was too fast.

The two prison guards exchanged a glance, immediately drew their guns, and began searching for the source of the sound. After searching for a while, they discovered that the strange sound was coming from a cell in the far corner.

The two prison guards frowned. The cell was extremely cramped and used to be a solitary confinement cell for punishing prisoners. Now, due to a shortage of prison cells, a young Chinese man was being held in it.

The two arrived at the cell door and quietly opened the small window to peek inside. Although the cell was very dark, they could still see the person inside, who was crouching in a corner with his back to the door, doing something.

The two prison guards exchanged another glance, both seeing a hint of mockery in each other's eyes.

This young Chinese man, does he intend to dig a tunnel to escape? If that's the case, then don't blame us! It just so happens that a prisoner ran into the broadcasting room to sing these past two days, and everyone got a severe scolding from the warden, so let's take it out on him.

In this dark and sunless dungeon, killing a Chinese person is as easy as killing an ant, with no consequences whatsoever.

The two prison guards exchanged a smile, took out their keys, quietly opened the cell door, and entered the cell one after the other, carrying guns and batons.

Time passed second by second, and there was no sound from the small cell. There were neither shouts from the guards nor cries of the prisoners.

After a while, the cell door opened, and a prison guard came out of the cell. He gently closed the cell door, carefully straightened his uniform, and then walked towards the exit.

The space on the plane felt cramped. The originally large cabin was filled with many oil drums, which occupied most of the space and greatly increased the plane's load, making takeoff extremely dangerous.

Li Wenliang and his two men were grimly equipping the parachutes, while Xie Dan was expressionlessly checking them.

Li Wenliang was filled with regret. He never imagined that he would attack Rhodes Prison in this way.

Li Wenliang kept taking deep breaths, subconsciously touching the dagger strapped to his thigh, repeatedly recalling the precautions for parachuting at sea in his mind.

Once you fall into the sea, you must immediately pull out a dagger and cut the parachute lines, otherwise the parachute will be pulled to the seabed by the ocean currents, and you will die!

In this process, no one can help; everyone faces the same situation.

After checking the parachutes for Li Wenliang and the others, Xie Dan dragged the tightly strapped Li Maocai to the cockpit and, with some effort, secured him to the passenger seat.

Li Maocai was knocked unconscious, his head drooping, his sparse hair hanging down, revealing a large patch of shiny scalp on his head.

After securing Li Maocai, Xie Dan nodded to An Xiaohai in the pilot's seat and returned to the cabin to prepare for parachuting.

An Xiaohai checked his watch; it was 11:50. That was about it!

An Xiaohai turned on the intercom system:

"This is win calling, anyone here?"

"TA1, TA2 is ready! Welcome!"

"TB1 and TB2 are ready."

"Fox1,Fox2 Stand by! Everything goes very smoothly."

"Sniper waiting for your orders Sir!"

"OK, Every guys, hurricane is coming,Repeat:hurricane is coming,Let's party!"
