Wang Yadong understood what he meant.

"I have paid attention to the hostage situation."

"but--"

It seemed like he had thought of something.

Wang Yadong couldn't help but frowned slightly.

He said slightly hesitantly.

"The only thing I'm sure of now is that there were no hostages killed by the pirates in advance."

"My job is to keep an eye on the tiger shark."

"After being reminded by the centipede, I originally wanted to pretend that I knew nothing."

"As a result - the tiger shark escaped because of something else."

"I was afraid of any accidents, so I went to look for the tiger shark."

"It is not clear what happened to the hostages afterwards."

When it comes to the end.

There was a hint of annoyance in Wang Yadong's tone.

I don’t know if he was regretting not staying to pay attention to the hostages.

"this is not your fault."

Although Gong Jian felt a little regretful.

But he patted Wang Yadong on the shoulder.

Simply comfort the other person.

"but--"

"Based on the pirates' previous defense of the hostages, it is unlikely that the hostages will escape on their own."

Think of what Tiger Shark did before to ask for more ransom.

The place where the hostages are held is almost turned into a real prison.

Wang Yadong's expression couldn't help but become more solemn.

Chapter 262 Ye Lan: When thinking from the perspective of a mercenary...

"So the two hostages should be in Centipede's hands now."

This time, there was no hesitation in Ye Lan's tone.

mainly--

On the premise that there is no possibility of hostages escaping or dying.

The hostages could not possibly be in the hands of the remaining pirates.

after all--

The remaining pirates were not aware in advance that soldiers from Country Z were coming to rescue the hostages.

As for after the commandos landed on the island——

Although the battle was somewhat intense.

But Ye Lan and others naturally had no reason to give the pirates the opportunity to take the hostages!

therefore.

Think about it.

The most likely scenario is nothing more than this.

The centipede took the two men away.

"Centipede is the kind of person who will do anything to survive and make money."

"If you want to be on the safe side—"

"It is very likely."

Wang Yadong nodded.

The tone was also somewhat solemn.

"We need to hurry."

It seemed like he had thought of something.

Ye Lan couldn't help but frown.

He said this in a somewhat heavy tone.

"For Centipede himself, it is much easier to take one hostage than two."

Ye Lan is not exaggerating or anything like that.

 12 Mainly——

It is definitely much more convenient to carry one hostage than two.

And the other party is familiar with the military's behavior.

very clear.

Regardless of whether the centipede holds one or two hostages—

While taking action.

We all have to consider the safety of the hostages.

And this concern.

For the centipede who is a mercenary.

Maybe it's a chance to escape!

Of course.

If the centipede really dares to kill the hostages.

You also have to consider whether you can withstand the wrath of the military.

therefore.

Actually.

Even if it's Centipede, he'll have to give up a hostage.

You may also choose to drop it.

Instead of killing them directly.

if....

If the centipede didn't worry about its whereabouts being exposed.

"really--"

"And both hostages were women."

"Physically speaking, I can't last long in a place like this."

The Phoenix's face turned dark.

"Now we can only hope that the centipede doesn't dare to kill the hostages."

Hear the words of the Phoenix.

Gong Jian subconsciously looked around at everyone.

He said in a somewhat serious tone.

"We can't rely on mercenaries."

"Only if we act faster can we increase the chances of the hostages returning alive!"

Regarding Gong Jian’s words.

Everyone nodded.

"Of course!"

Subsequently.

The entire team subconsciously sped up a lot.

……

About ten minutes passed in the woods.

After searching for so long without any results.

The Phoenix's heart couldn't help but begin to become somewhat irritated.

I began to doubt my own judgment.

Although as an undercover agent.

The Phoenix’s mentality is actually very good.

At least you can disguise yourself well.

but--

This mission involves the safety of two hostages.

In this environment again...

I feel that every second wasted——

They are all missing the lives of the hostages.

……

After the reconnaissance.

After jumping down from the tree in front and rejoining the team.

Ye Lan shook his head slightly at Gong Jian.

Indicates that there is nothing going on around.

Subsequently.

Ye Lan was keenly aware of Wang Yadong's emotional abnormality.

Look at the other person's expression.

Ye Lan just thought about it for a moment.

I almost understood what Wang Yadong was thinking now.

but--

Ye Lan knew.

For soldiers or people like Wang Yadong.

What is needed now is not comfort at all.

Think of the route I've taken before.

And what I just observed.

Ye Lan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

While following the pace of the team.

Ye Lan asked directly.

"Did you determine the route based on the direction the centipede had previously explored?"

After hearing Ye Lan's words.

Wang Yadong couldn't help but look at Ye Lan with some surprise.
