Chapter 228: Undercurrents and Rising Tides on All Sides

The train started moving again.

"These two questions are actually connected."

Chen Jiehua tore off a chicken leg, shoved a bite into his mouth, and continued, "I knew that man was a Red Party member. I recognize him; I met him once in Shanghai. I intentionally tipped him off because I didn't want you to arrest him."

"Reason."

"I am Chinese, he is Chinese, and you are Chinese as well. Yet, beyond the Great Wall, a pack of Japanese are slaughtering Chinese people!"

Shi Tong glanced at the two of them, his gaze as cold and indifferent as if he were looking at corpses. This made the unkempt teenager heighten his guard even more, while the chubby teenager turned as pale as death.

As a professional surgeon, he knew better than anyone that bone fragments in a wound would seriously complicate the surgical procedure.

For Wang Mo right now, attending classes or not didn't really matter. Everyone knows how university lectures go—as long as the professor isn't taking it seriously, it's no big deal.

"You'll know when we get there." With Mu Xiqing's approval, Mo Yunshang gave an order to Liu Huo who was driving, and the carriage slowly headed in a certain direction.

"I—I just didn't want to see my father get hurt!" I said in a hoarse voice, offering a bitter smile to Meng Chen.

Seeing Wang Mo react so strongly, Wen Rou felt utterly shy. But there was no helping it; this matter still had to be told to Wang Mo.

This trip could be described as full of twists and turns. Such a disaster struck before it even truly began, leaving all of us somewhat depressed, and now even our luggage had been confiscated by some princess.

As soon as this middle-aged man came out, he focused all his attention on the painting in my hand. Most people had only heard of this artwork, but no one had ever actually seen it.

Naturally, on the first day, the secrets the British managed to uncover were limited to this much. By the second day, the first batch of guests boarded the deck of the *Free Trade*. These people were almost entirely British naval officers, comprising both command-track officers and numerous technical specialists.

The array spun downwards, enshrouding everyone beneath it in its domain. Many people wore looks of astonishment, yet none stepped outside the boundaries of the formation.

"Since you can't bear to see your husband being bullied, why don't you..." A certain zombie's phoenix eyes flashed with a cunning glint.

Watching the pair, she felt like a ten-thousand-watt lightbulb. Things had reached this point, and she didn't even need to test them anymore; give these two some time, and there would be no knot they couldn't untangle.

William clutched his trident, wanting to spin it around like a circus trick, but he nearly dropped it and wisely stopped, sparing himself any further embarrassment.

Just because he could use perception in place of sight didn't mean he enjoyed doing so. He wanted some lighting inside the tent.

The military generals A Mang and A Yong were even stirred to a passionate fervor by the words shouted in Lyle's childish voice, eagerly wishing to join this pirate crew that didn't even possess a single plank of wood yet.

Su He had seen the look of disdain Mo Chen had just given, never expecting that in the blink of an eye, he would claim the television drama was actually good.

Lie Hui, being the ultimate executioner of the slaughter, naturally had no idea what had actually transpired, assuming merely that the demonic beasts had gone berserk and attacked Ling Yun and the others.

Fortunately, they were not traveling alone; they were accompanied by his top-tier lawyer, Amor from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce.

To Huo Ziyin, sheets of paper that cost virtually nothing and were scribbled on with a casual wave of his hand would multiply in value exponentially.

Bailu originally wanted to continue pouring his heart out to Liuzi, but at that exact moment, he sensed ghosts beginning to invade their floor.

Listening to everyone's chatter, Lin Yichen received a text message. He tapped it open to find a reply from Xu Tianlan.

The wind and snow atop the snowy peak suddenly intensified. Except for Hu Li and Xiao Tiandao, everyone else went on high alert. Those foxes that had not yet transformed into human form all faced the situation like a formidable enemy; although they were of the same kin, they still did not dare to lower their guard.
