I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

877 Clouds of Suspicion

“Shall we do it together?”

“You go first. The house is a little messy. I’ll go clean up.”

Lin Yi pulled Yan Ci and picked her up by the waist.

“What’s there to tidy up? It’s the same anywhere we do it.”

“Put me down first.” Yan Ci struggled in Lin Yi’s embrace. “We can’t do it in the bathroom!”

“We can even do it in the car when we have time. Doing it in the bathroom is completely normal.”

“You always bully me.”

…

Two Meiguons were sitting in room 4018.

The Caucasian man’s figure was ordinary. He was about 1.7 meters tall and had a thin figure. He did not stand out as he sat there quietly.

However, his pair of malicious eyes held a sharp gaze, just like the bald eagles circling in the sky above the American grassland.

The man’s name was Owen. He was an assassin from the Dark Web.

However, in the world of ordinary people, he was just an ordinary supermarket cashier. Other than certain powerful figures, no one else knew his identity.

Opposite Owen sat a black man.

In comparison, the black man’s figure was much larger and more oppressive.

His name was Jones. Like Owen, he was a hit man from the Dark Web.

However, he usually worked as a truck driver who lived like an ordinary person. Half a year ago, he even made the local newspaper because he saved a stray dog.

Little did they know that the number of people he had killed had to be counted with both hands.

At this moment, Jones was sitting on the sofa without saying a word. He held his head with one hand and fell deep into thought.

Owen made a call on his cell phone that lasted more than twenty minutes before he hung up.

“What did the other party say?” Jones asked.

“The target this time is called Lin Yi. He’s Huaxian. The other party’s request is to bring him back to Meiguon alive. If we can’t do it, kill him on the island and don’t let him return to Huaxia alive.”

“What’s the reward?”

“If we can bring him back alive, the reward will be 4 million. If we kills him, the bounty will be halved.”

After a few seconds of silence, Jones said,

“How much information do you know about the other party?”

“He’s a very famous Huaxian businessman. He has a certain amount of influence in the local area, so you have to be careful when you make a move. If you’re discovered, you might be in big trouble.”

“Then I’ll go prepare first. I reckon I’ll reach the island in a day or so.”

…

After a night of intense battle.

Of course, when Lin Yi opened his eyes, he realized that Yan Ci was once again not by his side.

However, there were also a difference. This time, Yan Ci did not pay.

Lin Yi realized that although Yan Ci did not have much experience, she was talented enough.

There were so many positions that could be understood with just one touch. There was no need to waste time saying too much nonsense.

Most importantly, if one’s stamina was good enough, there would not be a situation where one would be too exhausted to continue.

For the rest of the day, Lin Yi stayed in his room.

Because the ship was only so big, he knew all the spots where he could have fun. After careful comparison, he realized these places were not as fun as Yan Ci’s, so he simply stayed in the room.

Moreover, during this period of time, the frequency of Lin Yi’s conversations with Ji Qingyan also increased significantly.

This was because according to the production team’s requirements, they were not allowed to bring communication equipment with them after landing on the island.

Therefore, whenever she had time, she would take out her phone and chat with Lin Yi.

Even if they had nothing to say, and even if she only got to hear Lin Yi’s breathing, she would still be satisfied.

During this period of time, the mentality of the people on the ship had unknowingly changed.

They all became abnormally cautious.

The way they looked at strangers was also filled with hostility and defensiveness.

After almost two days of sailing, the shadow of the isolated island in the distance could be vaguely seen from the deck.

This also meant that it was possible that the ship would stop at any time and they would have to start fighting over the lifeboats.

During this period of time, Li Jiani contacted Lin Yi a few times to discuss their plan upon landing on the island.

However, Lin Yi only replied with a few simple words and did not pay attention to it.

That was because the information provided by the production team was very limited. Instead of discussing blindly, it was better to wait until they landed on the island before formulating a plan.

In Lin Yi’s opinion, there was no need to discuss this with them.

Yan Ci was the director of this production team, so she knew the situation on the island like the back of her hand.

If he wanted to know about this, he could simply ask her.

Despite this, Lin Yi didn’t do that.

This was because he had participated in this event entirely because of the system.

...

According to the system’s behavior, cheating was definitely not allowed.

Therefore, he could only follow the official process.

Having said that, the show as not the reasons for Lin Yi’s doubts.

It had been half a month since he last met Alice.

However, during this period of time, the other party had showed no intention of contacting him.

There was no news from the corporation either. It was as if they had completed disregarded the Chip 3.0.

He could not get a handle on this matter.

They knew better than him what Chip 3.0 represented. It was impossible for them to just give up like now.

However, until now, there had been no movement at all. This made the people very suspicious.

Moreover, Zhao Wen knew him, so she should know exactly how Lin Yi operated.

Wasn’t she afraid that he would sell the technology to AMD?

...

All these factors together made Lin Yi suspicious.

He had a feeling that something bad was brewing.

In addition, the situation on Caie Mitsui’s side was also like a time bomb.

That woman’s schemes and ambitions were far more terrifying than Intel’s.

She had also been subdued for so long, and there was still no movement from her side.

This was f*cking puzzling.

Ring ring ring!

Lin Yi’s phone rang at this moment. It was a call from Yan Ci.

“I’m in my room. Why are you calling me?”

“I just finished a meeting and wanted to ask you where you’re going to eat. Do you want to go to the restaurant or should I bring some food back for you?”

“Just bring me back a plate.”

“Do you have anything you want to eat?”

“Anything is fine. Just do as you see fit.”

“Okay.”

Yan Ci walked in about twenty minutes after hanging up the phone.

She even had two servings of rice in her hands.

“Just now, we had a meeting to study the plan. We have confirmed the timing when we will land on the island. At night…”

“Stop, stop, stop…”

Yan Ci was interrupted by Lin Yi.

“Don’t tell me such things. Cheating is quite boring.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to know?”

Yan Ci was not surprised at all. In fact, she had expected it.

“I’m sure you don’t want to cheat either, so there’s no need to say anything.”

“Do you need me to tell you about the island?”

“There’s no need.”

“Alright, let’s eat first.”

Yan Ci was also looking forward to Lin Yi’s performance after landing on the island.

“By the way, your room has long been tidied up. Go back to your room to sleep tonight.”

“Why?”

“It won’t be long before we reach the island. Don’t mess around tonight. You have to maintain your strength. Otherwise, you’ll easily fall behind.”

“I’m willing to risk it.”

‘Ah!’

Before Yan Ci could react, Lin Yi picked her up by the waist.

“What are you doing? I haven’t eaten yet,” Yan Ci said with a red face.

“It’s fine as long as I’m full. You don’t have to eat too much, or you might vomit after strenuous exercise.”
