There were two more hostiles, one of whom was holding a well-groomed middle-aged man at gunpoint and the other was interrogating him.
The middle-aged man looked dejected, but he answered their questions obediently.
Suddenly, Luke frowned at the night sky.
Two helicopters were headed this way from afar.
Luke had a bad feeling.
These two helicopters were making very little noise. Even with his keen hearing, he was only able to pick up faint, unusual sounds on the wind.
Furthermore, their strobe lights weren't on, which meant that they definitely weren't ordinary aircraft.
Regular aircraft were obligated to turn on their strobe lights during flights. This was a safety measure that absolutely couldn't be omitted.
A moment later, Luke saw two spots on the surface of the ocean. Were those… speedboats?
Luke frowned even harder. Had some secret special force been deployed to rescue the hostages? That didn't make sense.
