Field Marshal Chan kept on releasing various kinds of sighs inside the control room as he monitored the status of the search.
"Still no signal, John?" he asked, and John shook his head. John was still monitoring the signal that might come from the tracker on Zach's bracelet. Although the tracker had malfunctioned, there was always the possibility for a brief transmission. Even if it was just a second, just like before.
Jim and John, together with a few soldiers, had been taking turns to monitor the signal. They were on a rotating eight hours shift which would provide 24/7 coverage. They couldn't afford to miss even a single second.
Field Marshal Chan was still waiting for the forensic identification result of the man whose body, with four gunshot wounds, was found washed up on a beach of Guru island.
He was frustrated because the search operation had not borne any fruit. He just wanted to track down his daughter and son-in-law as soon as possible.
