They didn't expect that the situation just now had caused Chris to fall silent again.
Now, they finally understood why Dominic was so worried about Chris even though he was sick. In the end, they couldn't match dominic's keen sense of foreboding.
----------------
At that time..
In the hospital.
Philip and Cassandra were called by the nurse and told them to immediately go to Dominic's room. Arriving there, they heard an explanation and reasons why the two of them had to help Chris as a backup team.
Moreover..
"I'm sure right now, chris is still trying to cover up his wounds while he's carrying out his mission. He might be a tough guy. But once something hurts clear in front of his eyes, he definitely doesn't want anyone to worry about him. I've already sent a letter to HQ, as well as various proofs and also other things related to this case. As soon as he receives the letter. Please, help him. I don't want him to feel guilty anymore."
----------------
The current situation is probably pretty calm. So far, they haven't found any attacks like the pirates earlier.
Cassandra tried to calm Chris down. Meanwhile, Philips tried to contact HQ but it was not easy because the signal could not be reached.
"Chris, are you still.. haunted by that incident?"
Hearing Cassandra who was worried, Chris was silent for a moment.
"I don't know. No matter how hard I fight, I can't forget that incident. Even though right now, I just want to finish this mission as soon as possible."
Although Chris is trying to be tough. Cassandra could understand because it was not easy for Chris to be able to endure the feelings he had been through.
"You know.. if Dominic were here. He might give you some soul-soothing advice. Like.. the wind can be a coolant for the soul. But it's not easy to convince the wind to its own will."
For some reason, when Cassandra said about Dominic to Chris, he immediately smiled even though the smile felt thin for him.
"Yeah. Maybe.. next time. I'll see him. He's also trying hard to recover from his illness."
"I'm sure he will be happy. Especially if we can save his nephew. He also has to fight. We can't let him down."
Cassandra was relieved that Chris smiled again.
"So.. why are you involved in this mission?"
Cassandra was silent for a moment because she remembered what Dominic had said. He understood that Chris was curious. Even so, he didn't want to explain the reason instead instead diverting the conversation.
"This may sound selfish. But believe me, chris. We are just like dominic. Because this mission is as related to BOW as you say. Anyway, we will help you as much as we can."
For some reason, hearing Cassandra's words made him feel a little relieved.
"Thank You."
However..
"HQ here!"
Philip is relieved that the call has reached HQ.
"Finally. This is philip. We were attacked by a gang of pirates. But Chris asked us to shoot them, and it turned out they were BOW's. Request for a renewal of the mission!"
"Copy that! But your mission still remains. A few minutes ago, we received a message from your agent. Get to..."
Unfortunately, the signal was so bad that it was hard for them to hear the last part.
"HQ.. come in HQ, please? I think we're out of luck. What should we do, chris?"
Chris suddenly got up and started explaining the plan he had been thinking about for a moment.
"I think we'll infiltrate the enemy's hard-to-reach route.
There's a possibility that the enemy has started to move. Considering earlier we were attacked by BOW. So we have to be vigilant in facing the possibility that bad things will happen at any time."
"Yes, sir!"
They were amazed by Chris who remained calm and made decisions quickly and precisely.
