Upon hearing the commotion, Captain Price, Nikolai, and Roach immediately reacted by pushing Wang Tianyu to the ground and maintaining vigilance on the spot.
The sky was still very dark at this moment, and they only heard the roar of engines without seeing any trace of the boat.
Therefore, despite knowing that the approaching engine noise was unlikely to belong to an enemy boat, Captain Price, Roach, and Nikolai still chose concealment and vigilance as their first priority.
However,
In the next moment, a text message came to Captain Price's satellite phone from Chen Yaoguang.
[The receiving boat is in position!]
Seeing this, Captain Price calmly put away his phone, then gestured to Roach and Nikolai, indicating that the situation was safe and they could proceed.
At this moment, Wang Tianyu, forced to the ground with dirt in his mouth, lifted his head and wanted to ask right away, 'I am your Employer, is this how you treat me!?'
But Captain Price, Roach, and Nikolai would definitely not give him the chance to speak.
After confirming there was no danger, Roach roughly grabbed Wang Tianyu by the collar and practically dragged him forward.
Originally, Wang Tianyu had been walking by himself at first, but perhaps they thought he was too slow, so they simply assigned someone to lead him forward in this somewhat 'humiliating' manner.
Soon, Captain Price, Roach, and Nikolai brought Wang Tianyu to the bank of the Moai River.
At this moment, the black boat of the Thailand Police was already docked at the shore, waiting to pick them up.
When Wang Tianyu saw the Thailand Police boat and the flashing blue and red lights shining on his face, he finally felt a genuine sense of being rescued.
It was also at this moment that Wang Tianyu, who had been in a tense state of mind, completely relaxed with the appearance of the police.
Even though he knew Lu Ting and these mercenaries were here to rescue him, Wang Tianyu had still harbored worries and fears.
It wasn't that he didn't trust their abilities, but after being imprisoned in the "KK" scam park, which felt like hell on earth, for so many days, various torments had ingrained this subconscious fear deep within him.
It wasn't until he saw the police that Wang Tianyu's heart finally settled completely!
In an instant, he felt like his whole body had gone limp, emotions churning in his chest, and he unexpectedly felt a sensation of tears welling up!
Just then, Chen Yaoguang, who had been waiting on the opposite bank of the Moai River, emerged from the cabin of this police boat.
She briskly descended from the boat and approached Captain Price and the others. Coincidentally, Lu Ting, Soap, Yuri, Sandman, and Ghost, who were responsible for the rear guard, also arrived at the riverbank at this moment.
Immediately after, Chen Yaoguang first expressed her gratitude with a thankful expression and nodded to Lu Ting and the members of Task Force 141, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."
In response, Lu Ting and the members of Task Force 141 showed no significant change in expression. After all, they were simply doing a job for money, and whether it was hard or not didn't matter; it was about earning money!
At this moment, after saying a few words to them, Chen Yaoguang turned to Wang Tianyu, who was standing among the crowd, and continued, "I am Officer Chen from the International Criminal Police Organization of China. I am here to take you back to the country."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tianyu, who had been suppressing his inner emotions all this time, couldn't hold back anymore. Tears of excitement streamed down the face of this big man, releasing the emotions he had been suppressing for so many days.
Chen Yaoguang didn't say anything after seeing this. After all, he had just escaped from a life-threatening situation, so such a reaction was normal.
However, now was not the time to cry. Immediately, Chen Yaoguang spoke up, "Let's get on the boat first. It's not safe to stay here long!"
Even though the Thailand police boat was docked on the banks of the Moai River, it wasn't entirely safe here. As long as they were still within the territory of northern Myanmar, those desperate and reckless fraud and kidnapping elements could launch another attack at any moment.
Therefore, the safest course of action now was for them to board the boat and quickly leave the territory of northern Myanmar.
Upon Chen Yaoguang's reminder, Wang Tianyu hastily wiped away the tears from his face and followed her onto the Thailand police boat. Lu Ting and the members of Task Force 141 also followed closely behind, boarding the boat.
In just a few minutes, this Thailand police boat carried everyone back into the territory of the Mae Sot District of Thailand.
Upon returning to the concealed parking spot on the shore and exchanging greetings with the Thailand police, Chen Yaoguang immediately turned to Lu Ting, who was in charge, and said, "Next, I need you to escort us to the nearest airport. Is that okay with you?"
Although they were now within the territory of Thailand, the influence of those fraud and kidnapping groups was extensive, and they had operatives within Thailand as well.
To ensure a safe journey to the airport, Chen Yaoguang had no choice but to seek help from Lu Ting and the others because even with the Thailand police, she wasn't entirely confident!
Upon hearing Chen Yaoguang's request, Lu Ting nodded after half a second and agreed, "No problem. Let's not waste any time. Let's go."
Even though he had already handed Wang Tianyu over to Chen Yaoguang, the system still showed no response, indicating that the hired task was not yet considered complete until Wang Tianyu was safely on the plane back home.
With Lu Ting's command, the members of Task Force 141 swiftly moved towards their respective off-road vehicles.
Just as Lu Ting was about to follow them into a vehicle, Chen Yaoguang suddenly spoke up, "Mr. Lu, please ride in my car. Alya is also in my car."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ting immediately turned back. After silently looking at her for a moment, he turned and got into Chen Yaoguang's car.
At this moment, Alya, who had been sitting in Chen Yaoguang's car all along, had already woken up. When Lu Ting, covered in gunpowder and blood, got into the car, she instinctively shrank into the corner of her seat, still with a frightened expression in her eyes.
This was a normal reaction, after all, Lu Ting didn't exactly look like a good person right now.
However, during the time she had spent alone with Chen Yaoguang, Alya had figured out Lu Ting's identity. He wasn't some rich second generation from China; he was a mercenary who had infiltrated northern Myanmar to rescue someone!
Thinking of this, for the first time, a bold idea sprouted in Alya's mind.
Soon after everyone boarded their vehicles, including a Thailand police vehicle, the three off-road vehicles quickly left the concealed location and raced towards the nearest airport.
Chen Yaoguang and Lu Ting sat quietly in the off-road vehicle. Their subordinate driver, Xiao Miao, occasionally glanced through the rearview mirror at Chen Yaoguang and Lu Ting sitting in the back, unsure how to break the silence.
As for Wang Tianyu, also in the car, he seemed exhausted, slouched in his seat without speaking, staring blankly out the window.
Finally, the silence in the car, which had become somewhat suffocating, was broken by the buzzing vibration of a phone in Chen Yaoguang's pocket.
"Hello, Director Hong?"
It was a call from Director Hong, and his intention was clear—to confirm with her whether Lu Ting and the others had safely rescued Wang Tianyu at this time!
Sure enough, the next second, the phone receiver picked up the sound of Director Hong's inquiry.
"How is it going? Is he out?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yaoguang didn't hesitate and immediately replied, "Yes, he's been rescued. We are on our way to the nearest airport."
"Good, good, good!"
"It's great that he's out!"
At this moment, the voice of Director Hong over the phone sounded equally excited, continuing, "Yaoguang, pass the phone to Wang Tianyu. His father wants to speak to him for a moment."
"Sure."
After hearing this, Chen Yaoguang didn't hesitate and reached out to hand the phone to Wang Tianyu, saying, "Your father is calling. Take the call."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tianyu, sitting in the back, was first stunned, then quickly took the phone from her hand and put it to his ear to answer.
"Hello? Dad!"
Upon hearing the voice from the receiver, Wang Tianyu's voice was noticeably choked with emotion as he began speaking to the person on the other end of the line.
Meanwhile, Chen Yaoguang glanced at Lu Ting, then reached out to gently stroke Alya's head, who was sitting beside her. She then took the initiative to start a conversation, "What about this little girl? What are your plans for her?"
"Are you planning to take her back to Ivye?"
Upon hearing Chen Yaoguang's question, Lu Ting, who had been staring out the window, turned to look at them. His gaze passed over Chen Yaoguang and landed on Alya beside her.
Two seconds later, Lu Ting replied in a calm tone, "And if not? Are we going to deliver her?"
"Don't joke, Officer Chen. With her current value, she's worth more than you!"
To be honest, Lu Ting had no interest in raising a child. After all, when he bought this albino girl at that underground auction, it was out of a sudden act of kindness, and he hadn't really considered what would happen after acquiring her.
But if they were to send her to an institution like a welfare home, Lu Ting also felt it might not be suitable. After all, Alya had experienced too much darkness at such a young age, and sending her to such places might not necessarily be a good thing for her.
After hearing Lu Ting's words, Chen Yaoguang instinctively furrowed her brows slightly. Then, she continued, "Regardless of where we go, we should at least ask her own opinion."
Having said this to Lu Ting, Chen Yaoguang didn't wait for his reaction. Instead, she turned to Alya and asked, "Alya, do you want to go with him or go to a place without danger, without bad people, where there are only children?"
After speaking, Chen Yaoguang looked at Alya, waiting for her decision.
Lu Ting also looked at her at this moment, curious to see how the little girl would choose.
Under the gaze of both of them, Alya first looked at Chen Yaoguang beside her, then her eyes slowly moved to Lu Ting.
The next second, as if firm in her own inner decision, Alya reached out her hand and pointed slowly towards Lu Ting.
Though she didn't speak, her intention was clear.
Seeing this, a faintly amused smile appeared on Lu Ting's lips. He then turned his head back to look out the car window.
While Chen Yaoguang felt somewhat surprised by Alya's choice, she didn't say anything more at this point. After all, logically speaking, since Lu Ting had purchased her, where she would go next would naturally be decided by him.
Now that Lu Ting was willing to adopt her and Alya was willing to go with him, everything seemed to be turning out well.
However, Chen Yaoguang's only concern was whether a group of men like Lu Ting could really raise a young girl properly?!
Could she end up being trained into a female mercenary in the end?!
Thinking of this, Chen Yaoguang couldn't help but glance at Lu Ting. She had to admit, if Alya grew up in an environment like that of a mercenary group from a young age, it wasn't impossible for her to consider such things!
Immediately, she realized that her thoughts might have veered off track. Even if Alya were to become a female mercenary someday, that was many years away, and there was no need to think about it now.
Quickly, Chen Yaoguang refocused her scattered thoughts and didn't say anything more.
The three off-road vehicles and the police car sped along the road. Perhaps due to the police car clearing the way, their journey to the airport was unexpectedly smooth, without any incidents.
Before long, their vehicles stopped at the entrance of the airport. Since they hadn't had a chance to unload their weapons and were still covered in smoke and blood, Lu Ting and the members of Team 141 didn't get out of the car. They simply sat inside, watching through the windows as Chen Yaoguang escorted Wang Tianyu into the airport.
According to Chen Yaoguang's information, they had arranged a charter flight to send Wang Tianyu back to his country. Therefore, once they entered the airport, they could proceed directly to the plane without unnecessary delays.
However, at this moment, Lu Ting sitting in the car suddenly rolled down the window and leaned out to call, "Hey, Officer Chen!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yaoguang, who had been walking towards the airport, immediately stopped in her tracks. She turned around with a puzzled expression to look at Lu Ting, unsure why he was calling her at this moment.
