Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

With fewer people in the villa, it suddenly felt much quieter.

Kang Lianhai was distracted and could hardly contain his inner fear; Zhan Weiting appeared much calmer, but in An Xiaohai's eyes, his actions were full of flaws.

An Xiaohai was a little curious, wondering how Igawa Yu had managed to convince these two people.

According to their original plan, in the operation to rescue Kang Jiaxiang, An Xiaohai was to lead his men to their deaths, while their men were responsible for actually carrying out the operation.

But plans can't keep up with changes. The series of anomalies and unexpected events in Deepsea City completely disrupted their plans.

Now, Igawa Yu has already started his operation, while Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai are left here to die with An Xiaohai.

I wonder how these two would feel if they knew the truth!

Perhaps seeing that everyone was getting a little bored, Mai Xiaoyu suggested playing mahjong. Alahan and Ahmed showed great interest, so the three of them pulled Zhan Weiting into a table.

Kang Lianhai had no objections. He had no interest in playing mahjong, so he and An Xiaohai drank tea and chatted idly.

At 5:30 PM, as the sun began to set, someone banged loudly on the villa's gate, a very rude act. An Xiaohai gave Yeren a wink, and Yeren immediately opened the door and welcomed the guest in.

"Brother Chen, long time no see! I thought you'd forgotten me! Hehe!" The visitor was Duan Hui, the head of the logistics department of the Xiadong Detachment of the Armed Police.

This was also an old acquaintance; he had been secretly taking care of Chen Shuifen and Chen Xiru all along.

"How could that be? Director Duan, come on, let's talk inside!"

After giving the others a wink, An Xiaohai pulled Duan Hui into another room. About ten minutes later, the Wild Man went to An Xiaohai's room again, took a leather suitcase, and delivered it over.

Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai quickly exchanged a glance. They recognized the small suitcase; they had inadvertently seen it yesterday and found it contained a considerable amount of cash.

The two immediately imagined An Xiaohai bribing Director Duan.

About ten minutes later, An Xiaohai and Duan Hui came out of the room hand in hand, looking as close as brothers.

Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai noticed that the small leather suitcase containing the money was now in Duan Hui's hands.

Duan Hui called over a guard and told him to take the small suitcase and leave first. However, he himself did not leave. Instead, he took Alahan's place and sat opposite Mai Xiaoyu to play mahjong.

Mai Xiaoyu seemed to be playing erratically today, losing more than she won, so she became increasingly impatient as the game progressed; Zhan Weiting, on the other hand, was on a winning streak and had already won quite a bit of money.

Dinner was indeed exceptionally lavish, delivered by the armed police's mess hall in a vehicle, and consisted entirely of very fresh and expensive seafood.

Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai both felt a little disheartened. Sure enough, all crows are black. These people acted respectable on the surface, but behind the scenes they were living lavishly and were incredibly corrupt!

"Brother Chen, you don't have anything else to do later, right?" After finishing his meal, Duan Hui crossed his legs and asked while picking his teeth.

"It should be fine. What are your plans, Director Duan?"

"You've been asking me to take you tuna fishing, haven't you? I happen to be free today, let's go cast a line together. I recently discovered a really great spot, you definitely won't come back empty-handed! How about it, interested?"

"Of course I'm interested, but I came in a bit of a rush this time and didn't bring a fishing rod."

"That's no problem at all. I have plenty of fishing rods. Didn't you give me several sets last time?"

"Okay, I've been itching to try it myself. When are we going?"

"Of course I'm leaving right away, you know my temper."

"Okay, let's set off right away!" An Xiaohai said, getting up.

"President Chen, Director Duan, Lian Hai also loves fishing. Could we take him along?" Zhan Weiting suddenly asked with a forced smile.

"Of course, no problem!" Before An Xiaohai could even respond, Duan Hui had already nodded. "Brother Chen's friends are my friends too, why don't we all go together? It'll be more fun with more people!"

"I'm not going. I get a bit seasick. I'll just stay home and play mahjong. I'm on a winning streak right now, hehe!"

"Alright, do as you please!"

An Xiaohai had long anticipated that the two wouldn't let him out of their sight. He had been thinking about how to take Kang Lianhai away alone and leave Zhan Weiting behind, but he didn't expect Zhan Weiting to take the initiative and solve the problem himself.

Kang Lianhai clearly wasn't really interested in fishing, but he understood Zhan Weiting's meaning and could only force a smile.

"I want to go too! I've been having really bad luck today! Director Duan, are there any seats available?"

"Yes! There's plenty of room! If Miss Mai is willing to board my ship, I'll throw myself into the sea! Haha! It's rare to see Miss Mai in such high spirits today!" Duan Hui said, staring at Mai Xiaoyu with a lecherous grin.

"Alright, it's settled then. Anyone else want to go?"

Of course, no one will ask to go anymore, so the current result is perfect.

An Xiaohai led the group out the door, and Mai Xiaoyu asked Yeren to help him carry his bag; Duan Hui's bodyguard took away Doctor Yu, saying that he wanted to ask Doctor Yu to give his elderly mother acupuncture and physiotherapy.

Those who were to continue appearing left the villa, while those who were to disappear were left behind.

The moment he stepped out, An Xiaohai looked back at Alahan and Ahmed, who were also smiling at him.

"Goodbye, comrades from the Northwest. I hope we'll have the chance to meet again in the future..." An Xiaohai gave them another big smile, gently closed the door, and walked into the afterglow of the setting sun.

The fishing spot that Duan Hui mentioned didn't seem far from An Xiaohai's villa. Standing on the boat and looking into the distance, you could even see the outline of the villa. However, it took a full half hour to get there by boat.

Duan Hui was right; this was indeed a good spot for tuna fishing. After more than an hour, everyone had caught something except for Kang Lianhai, who hadn't caught a single fish.

An Xiaohai checked his watch; it was 8:40, only 20 minutes until the villa exploded.

At this time, Igawa Yu and his men should have already ambushed the city police station. As soon as the explosion occurs here, the city police station will receive the news and panic, and they will take the opportunity to rush in and kill indiscriminately, creating a horrific bloodbath.

What they didn't know was that the entire Municipal Public Security Bureau, inside and out, had been replaced with elites from the Security Department and the Safety Department. If they dared to show themselves, a bloodbath would indeed occur, but whether it would be horrifying or welcome was hard to say.

An Xiaohai originally wanted to take them down directly at sea, but if he did that, the remaining Cao assassins in Deep Sea City would definitely flee at the mere sight of him.

We'll just have to wait a bit longer.

All members of the security and safety departments should have safely evacuated from the villa by now.

Zhan Weiting should have already been subdued. He will be tied up in the basement with the wounded Japanese Caos, watching helplessly as the numbers on the time bomb slowly reach zero.

An Xiaohai looked towards the northeast. That was the direction of Apo's Corner. At that moment, it was pitch black there.

"You're looking this way too, aren't you? I can feel it..." An Xiaohai's lips curled into a slight smile.

After an unknown amount of time, An Xiaohai felt a bright orange-red light suddenly burst forth behind him.

Looking back, a small orange-red flower was blooming in the distance, like a fiery red glass flower inlaid on the coast.

An Xiaohai glanced at Kang Lianhai not far away.

At this moment, Kang Lianhai stared at the increasingly bright flower on the shore, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets, his face filled with fear and shock.
