Two days later, Xu Cheng left.
The Bermuda Delta, a magical place where any plane or ship that passed through, would disappear mysteriously. Unexpectedly, this was the place where the Duke lived.
This place was called the Dead Sea, not because of how mysterious it was, but because of the local climate and topography of the sea, the waves would occasionally produce tornadoes and torrents, which would cause ships passing through this area to be wrecked. Even if they used satellites to take pictures, because of the unpredictable climate, the sky here would be cloudy all year round, making it difficult for satellites to capture images. This was a natural phenomenon.
One of Morgan's spies responsible for keeping an eye on Xu Cheng came over and reported to Morgan. Of course, the reason why this spy could follow Xu Cheng was because Xu Cheng deliberately didn't pull him out and let him see.
When Xu Cheng set off, Morgan contacted all the higher-ups he could mobilize in the White House and held a meeting.
In the middle of the meeting, the door was pushed open.
A group of lawmakers from the social party walked in one after another, followed by Stenson and Bush.
When Morgan saw this group of people, a hint of panic flashed across his face, but he pretended to be calm.
"What are you guys doing here?"
Stenson smiled. "Why did Mr. Morgan suddenly call for this meeting?"
"Nothing much, just a gathering to talk about some things. But, isn't it a bit impolite for you to just come in like this?"
Stenson laughed. "Is it? I thought my friendship with Mr. Morgan didn't exist like this. "
Morgan rolled his eyes. "If there's nothing else, please leave."
Bush suddenly said, "I heard you guys are going to use a Y-bullet? Why didn't you inform us about such a big event? "
"Who said that?" Morgan pretended to be very calm.
Bush: "Do you still need to hear it? Such a big event, do you think the United States is something you can hide from the world? "
Morgan's face turned a bit ugly. He looked at Bush with a sullen face and said, "I heard your father just passed away. Why didn't you pay your respects at home and came here to cause trouble?"
Bush: "If I don't cause trouble, how can I prove that I'm still alive?"
Morgan pondered for a moment and said, "The experimenters in the fifth zone need to do a counter-verification, so they just want to do an experimental explosion with the Y-bullet. It's not like it will start a war. What are you guys so nervous about?"
Stenson looked at him and asked, "Where?"
Morgan: "I haven't thought about it yet, but it should be in the desert. If you don't believe me, this is the project proposal. Take a look. "
He had already prepared Zhou Xiang's excuse and asked the people in the Fifth District to cooperate with him. Then, he took out the proposal and showed it to Bush and the socialists.
After looking at it, Bush said to Statham, "No problem."
Statham smiled, looked at Morgan and asked, "When will it be detonated?"
Morgan: "In the near future."
Stenson: "No, I haven't seen a nuclear explosion. Why don't we do it tomorrow? I want to see if the scene is beautiful."
A hint of displeasure flashed through Morgan's eyes.
"The deployment will take three to five days. You also have to check to avoid any natural disasters, so it's not something that can be detonated immediately," Morgan said.
"I see." Stansen nodded. "Okay, remember to call me when the time comes. I want to see it too."
"Alright." Morgan grinned.
After Stansen left, Morgan couldn't help but ask, "By the way, does Mr. Xu have time? Let him come as well."
Stansen looked at Morgan meaningfully. This old b * stard, he's still pretending.
"Don't you know that he's been out for two days?" Stansen said in surprise.
"Really?" Morgan pretended not to know. "Then tell him when the time comes."
"Okay." After Stansen nodded, he took everyone out.
After walking out of the conference room, Stansen immediately took out his phone and made a call. "It will take three to five days. Our people here will supervise. Tell the boss that he only has two days to act. If he doesn't successfully leave the island after two days, we will probably launch the missiles."
On the other end of the phone, Dulson's voice sounded. "Okay, two days. The regiment commander said that if he doesn't come out by then, I will call you, and you can launch the missiles then."
In fact, Stansen didn't come to supervise Morgan this time, but it was Xu Cheng's arrangement. If Xu Cheng couldn't get out of the castle and the island within two days, it meant that he had lost and met with misfortune. At that time, Morgan's timing wouldn't be good, and he was afraid that the Duke would run away. So, Stansen would be here. Even if Morgan didn't detonate it, he would!
Of course, if Morgan wanted to detonate it the moment Xu Cheng went in, Stansen would stop him on the spot!
After hanging up the phone, Dulson said to Xu Cheng beside him, "Regiment Commander, are we really going?"
Xu Cheng glanced at the boundless sea. To be honest, Xu Cheng only had one day to cover this distance! Because it would take half a day to get back from the island. But don't forget, the speedboat Xu Cheng prepared was for Disse and the others. In other words, even if he succeeded, he would have to swim back. However, any normal person knew very well that before he could swim out of the castle, the missiles would probably explode and drown him.
After Xu Cheng finished the cigarette in his mouth, he made up his mind and directly jumped onto a small yacht. Then, he retracted the anchor and said to Dulson on the shore, "Remember, in two days, if you don't see this boat coming back, call Stansen. You must keep that monster here forever. Only then will you be safe in the future!"
Dulson nodded, a bit reluctant, and loudly shouted, "Regiment Commander … is that all?"
Xu Cheng knew what he wanted to say. After pondering for a moment, he said, "The rest, I still want to say it when I come back, if …"
Dulson: "There's no if! The regiment commander I know never says if! "
Xu Cheng smiled. "If I can't come back, go tell your sister-in-law to find a simple and ordinary man to marry."
After saying that, Xu Cheng started the engine and headed towards the sea.
He lit a cigarette and stood at the bow of the boat, facing the sea breeze. This time, he didn't know if he would live or die.
Strangely enough, Xu Cheng didn't feel any fear or other doubts. Maybe this kind of scene was too common for him. In this life, he felt like he was a man who risked his life and was always on the brink of death.
Dulson watched Xu Cheng's back slowly disappear into the distance and sighed. "In this world, which man can catch sister-in-law's eyes?"
