The night is like a huge piece of black satin, gently but impermeably wrapped around the whole city. Shen Yifeng and Lin Yue stood side by side on the seashore, the biting sea breeze was like a head of rampaging beasts, wrapped in salty breath, wantonly stirring their hair, but these two people as if they did not realize, full of the haze brought about by that mysterious phone call just now. Shen Yifeng's brows were tightly knitted, as if tightened by an invisible hand, his deep eyes revealed unprecedented gravity, he subconsciously clutched Lin Yue's hand, as if it was his only reliance in this unknown storm.
"Lin Yue, it seems that our troubles have just begun." Shen Yifeng's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from the bottom of a deep valley, breaking the long dead silence. Lin Yue nodded slightly, her gaze crossing over the layers of waves and looking towards the sea in the distance that was engulfed in darkness, as if in that endless darkness, a crisis that was about to come crashing down was hidden. "No matter what lies ahead, we face it hand in hand." Her words were soft yet full of strength, like new buds breaking out of the ground in spring, tough and tenacious.
Back at home, Shen Yifeng sat in front of the desk in the study for a long time like a frozen statue, his eyes staring at the photos of those mysterious symbols on the desk as if he wanted to see through them. In his mind, countless thoughts were intertwined and entwined like a mess, desperately pondering the hidden secrets behind these symbols. Lin Yue walked in gently, holding two steaming cups of coffee in her hands, the rising heat adding a touch of warmth to the oppressive atmosphere. She gently placed a cup of coffee in front of Shen Yifeng, then slowly sat down beside him.
"I pondered that since these symbols are related to ancient legends, maybe I can dig up more clues in those dusty ancient documents." Lin Yue was the first to break the silence, her voice carried a hint of imperceptible anticipation, like a person groping in the darkness, vaguely seeing a glimmer of light. Shen Yifeng nodded heavily, "That's what I intend to do as well, I've already contacted an expert who is quite renowned in the field of ancient culture research, he will come over tomorrow and study and discuss with us."
The next day, the brilliant sunlight was like golden threads of silk, passing through the window and spilling onto the sofa in the living room. A white-haired old man was sitting there, scrutinizing the topographies of those mysterious symbols with full attention. He, was Professor Chen, whom Shen Yifeng had invited. Prof. Chen gently pushed the thick pair of presbyopia glasses on the bridge of his nose and slowly spoke: ''These symbols are indeed ancient, I have glimpsed similar records in some rare ancient books, but the specific meanings have to be studied in depth. However, from the information we have so far, these symbols seem to be inextricably linked to a mysterious organization, which is said to be sitting on a huge amount of wealth, and also controls mysterious and unpredictable power."
Shen Yifeng and Lin Yue glanced at each other, a flash of surprise instantly flashing across their eyes, as if a calm lake had been thrown into a stone, sending up layers of ripples. How could they not have expected that behind these seemingly ordinary symbols, there was such a shocking secret hidden. "Then what exactly is the connection between this mysterious organization and the crime syndicate we investigated before?" Shen Yifeng asked with a puzzled face. Professor Chen shook his head helplessly, "I don't know about this, however, I will help you access more information, perhaps I can find some clues."
Right at this moment, Shen Yifeng's cell phone rang abruptly. He hurriedly picked up the phone, and in an instant, his face became as gloomy as ink. "Alright, we'll rush over right away." After saying that, he quickly hung up the phone and turned to Lin Yue and Professor Chen, "The police have found some brand new clues in one of the crime syndicate's strongholds, let's go over and take a look."
When Shen Yifeng and Lin Yue arrived at the police station in a hurry, Officer Zhang, who was in charge of the case, had been waiting for a long time. Officer Zhang led them to a room with some items recovered from the stronghold. Among them, an ancient box instantly caught Shen Yifeng's eye. The box was carved with densely-packed patterns that were extremely similar to the mysterious symbols they had discovered earlier. Shen Yifeng carefully opened the box, and inside lay a worn out diary quietly.
The paper of the diary had long been yellowed, as if it had been mercilessly eroded by the years, exuding a stale and rotten odor. Shen Yifeng gently opened the diary, the handwriting on it was a bit blurred, but barely recognizable. The content in the diary was like a heavy bomb that set off shock waves in their hearts. It turns out that the relationship between this criminal group and the mysterious organization is intertwined. The mysterious organization had been pursuing a mysterious power, while the crime syndicate acted as their minions, searching around for various resources and intelligence for them.
"It seems that our previous guess was right, this secret is far more intricate than we thought." Shen Yifeng slowly closed the diary, his face so heavy that it seemed like water could drip out of it. Lin Yue frowned, "Then what should we do now?" Officer Zhang pondered for a moment, "We need to further investigate this mysterious organization and figure out what exactly they are planning. However, this organization is extremely secretive, and the clues we have so far are few and far between."
Shen Yifeng suddenly recalled a sentence he heard at the secret trading site, "I remember that at the trading site, they mentioned a place - Ghost Island. Maybe this Ghost Island has a great connection with the mysterious organization." Officer Zhang's eyes snapped open, "Ghost Island? I have heard of it, I heard that it is a mysterious and unpredictable island, surrounded by reefs and surrounded by thick fog all year round, very few people can get close to it."
After some heated discussions, they resolutely decided to head to Ghost Island to find out. In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Officer Zhang carefully selected a few experienced police officers to go with them. Two days later, a speedboat cut through the calm sea like an arrow off the string and sped towards the depths of the sea. Shen Yifeng, Lin Yue and Officer Zhang stood on the deck, facing the sea breeze and looking at the boundless sea in front of them, their hearts were filled with both anticipation of the unknown and a hint of nervousness.
As the speedboat gradually approached the ghost island, the surrounding fog became more and more dense, as if it was a mass of thick ink, wrapping the speedboat tightly. The visibility was extremely low, and every meter forward was like groping through a dark and boundless abyss. The driver was fully concentrated, carefully maneuvering the speedboat, trying to avoid those reefs hidden in the fog. Finally, an island loomed in front of their eyes, the dreaded Ghost Island.
The moment they stepped on the island, a gloomy and eerie atmosphere came over them, as if they were in a cursed ghost area. The island was filled with a disgusting putrid odor, and the surrounding trees were extremely lush, with their branches and leaves intertwining with each other, almost completely obscuring the sky. They cautiously marched forward, taking every step with extreme caution for fear of touching the dangers hidden in the shadows.
Suddenly, a police officer let out a mournful scream. The crowd quickly turned around, only to see that the policeman's ankle was deadlocked by a huge trap, crimson blood gurgling out, haloing on the ground.
"Be careful, this place is full of traps!" Sheriff Zhang shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the empty woods. The crowd instantly became alert and spread out in a fan shape, their eyes like torches as they carefully searched their surroundings. Right at this moment, a weird and eerie laughter came from the dense woods, as if the laughter was the roar of an evil spirit coming from the depths of hell, making one's bones creepy and chills stand up straight.
"Who? Come out to me!" Shen Yifeng shouted angrily, a hint of unquestionable majesty in his voice. However, the only thing that responded to him was the chilling laughter, which echoed continuously in the silent woods, becoming more and more bizarre. Suddenly, a group of black shadows rushed out from the woods like ghosts, launching a fierce attack towards them. Shen Yifeng and the others quickly drew their weapons and started a thrilling fight to the death with these black shadows.
In the fierce struggle, Shen Yifeng keenly realized that these black shadows were a group of well-trained killers, their movements were as agile as a panther, their strikes were ruthless and decisive, and every move went straight to the vitals. Shen Yifeng with his athletic body, and a killer to start a one-on-one fierce competition. The killer was holding a sharp dagger, cold light flashed, like a viper spitting out a letter to Shen Yifeng. Shen Yifeng's eyes flinched as he dodged sideways, the dagger scratched against the corner of his coat, bringing up a hint of cold wind. He followed the trend of an elbow strike, like a heavy hammer, heavily smashed on the killer's temple, the killer stifled a grunt and fell straight to the ground.
Lin Yue was not willing to show weakness, she quickly picked up a wooden stick on the ground and skillfully circled with a killer. The killer was tall and lanky, his strength was amazing, every attack carried a whistling sound of wind. Lin Yue is small, in strength is obviously at a disadvantage, gradually some can not resist, sweating, panting. Just in the nick of time, Shen Yifeng arrived in time like a divine warrior. He grabbed the killer's arm, and violently twisted it, only to hear a "click" sound, the killer's arm was instantly dislocated, he screamed miserably, and collapsed like a puddle of mud on the ground.
After a fierce fight, they finally managed to repel these killers. However, before they could catch their breath, they heard a helicopter roar from far and near. The crowd looked up, only to see a helicopter slowly landing in front of them, and the gusty winds kicked up by the propellers blew the leaves around them all over the sky. From the helicopter came down a few people dressed in black suits, and at the head was a man wearing sunglasses, his eyes as cold as frost, as if they could freeze to death.
"You guys think you can find this place so easily? Simply too naive." The man in sunglasses said coldly, a hint of mockery and disdain in his voice. Shen Yifeng stared at him tightly, the flame of anger burning in his eyes, "What exactly do you guys want?" The corner of the sunglasses man's mouth rose slightly, revealing a cold smile, "I advise you to be sensible and leave obediently, otherwise, none of you will want to leave this island alive."
Shen Yifeng took a step forward, his stance as upright as a pine, and said firmly, "We definitely won't leave, we must uncover your conspiracy." The sunglasses man's face instantly sank like the sky before a storm, "In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless." After saying that, he waved his hand and those men in black immediately rushed towards them like a tidal wave.
Shen Yifeng and the others were once again in a desperate situation, they leaned back to back, forming a tight defense circle, and fought to the death with the men in black. Lin Yue's stamina gradually ran out, her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, her arm was scratched by one of the men in black, crimson blood slowly flowed down her arm, staining her sleeves red. Seeing this, Shen Yifeng's heart was burning with anxiety, he recklessly rushed towards Lin Yue, protecting her tightly behind him, as if he wanted to use his own body to build an impenetrable defense for her.
Just when they were almost in despair, Officer Zhang suddenly shouted, "Everyone hold on a little longer, support will be here soon!" It turned out that Officer Zhang had already arranged for backup before he set off, and they were rushing to support them at a rapid pace after hearing the sounds of the fierce battle.
Hearing Officer Zhang's words, Shen Yifeng and the others were instantly demoralized, as if they had seen the dawn in the darkness. They clenched their teeth and fought with all their might as they continued to battle the black-clothed men. Finally, the supporting police arrived, the black-clothed men saw the situation is not good, have like a lost dog retreat. Shen Yifeng and the others breathed a long sigh of relief and sat paralyzed on the ground, sweat and blood intertwined and soaked their clothes.
After this thrilling battle, they were even more determined to uncover the mysterious organization's plot. After a short rest, they continued their careful search on the island and finally discovered a secret base hidden in a cave. The moment they stepped into the base, the sight in front of them shocked them to the core. The base was filled with all sorts of high-tech equipment and mysterious instruments, and there were also some people in white coats who were busily shuttling in and out of it, as if they were in a futuristic world.
"Looks like this is the core base of the mysterious organization." Shen Yifeng lowered his voice and said with a grave expression. They crept forward, trying to find some key clues. Suddenly, one of the scientists spotted them, and he cried out in alarm, "There's an intruder!" In an instant, alarms blared in the base, shrill voices echoed throughout the base, and a group of security guards rushed towards them like a tidal wave.
Shen Yifeng and the others were once again caught in the middle of a fierce battle, they made full use of the complex terrain in the base and skillfully maneuvered with the security guards. In the midst of the battle, Shen Yifeng keenly discovered a control room, and he intuited that there might be a key piece of information hidden there to unlock all the mysteries. So, he and Lin Yue looked at each other, understood each other, and rushed towards the control room together. With their tenacity and excellent hands, they broke through the security guards' heavy defense and managed to enter the control room.
Inside the control room, a huge computer screen flashed with all sorts of complicated data and images, dazzling people. Shen Yifeng quickly walked to the computer and quickly started searching for relevant information. After some intense searching, he finally discovered the mysterious organization's shocking plot. It turned out that the Mysterious Organization had been searching for a mysterious power that could control human minds, and they presumed to use this power to rule the entire world and turn everyone into their puppets.
"It's too terrifying, if we let their plot succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable." Shen Yifeng's heart pounded violently, an unprecedented sense of fear and mission surged through his heart, he knew deep down that this discovery would change the fate of countless people, and he, himself, was standing at the tip of this battle between good and evil. Lin Yue was also shocked to the point of losing her color by this news, "We must do everything we can to stop them."
Just then, the gate of the base was suddenly opened with a bang, and a group of police officers rushed in like a tiger descending from a mountain. It turned out that Officer Zhang had found the entrance to the base outside and led the police to arrive in time. Shen Yifeng told Officer Zhang about the mysterious organization's conspiracy one by one, and after hearing this, Officer Zhang's face became unusually serious, as if it was shrouded in a layer of frost.
"We must take immediate action to completely destroy this base." Officer Zhang decisively gave the order. As a result, Shen Yifeng and the others and the police officers worked in unison and began to completely destroy the base. They divided up the work clearly, some were responsible for destroying the high-tech equipment, while others were responsible for smashing the mysterious instruments, and every action was filled with strength and determination.
When they finally completed their mission and left the base, Ghost Island had already been engulfed in a blazing fire, which lit up the entire night sky. Shen Yifeng and Lin Yue stood on the speedboat, looking at the island behind them that was shrouded in fire, their hearts were filled with emotions. They knew that although they had successfully stopped the mysterious organization's plot this time, in the future, there were still more unknown challenges waiting for them.
On the way back, Shen Yifeng held Lin Yue's hand tightly, as if he was holding the whole world, "Lin Yue, no matter what hardships and dangers we'll encounter in the future, we have to work hand in hand and face them together." Lin Yue leaned on his shoulder and said happily, "Well, I will never leave you, no matter what happens."
However, they didn't realize that in a dark corner, a pair of cold eyes were silently watching them. A mysterious voice sounded quietly in the darkness, "This is just the beginning, your troubles are still ahead ..."
After returning to the city, Shen Yifeng and Lin Yue had thought that they would be able to breathe a sigh of relief for the time being and lead a calm and peaceful life. However, fate didn't seem to intend to let them off easily. One day, Shen Yifeng received an anonymous letter with only a short sentence, "You think it's over? The real game has just begun." Shen Yifeng looked at the letter, and a strong sense of foreboding welled up in his heart. He knew that a new challenge had quietly descended, and they, once again, would inevitably fall into a new crisis ... It turned out that the mysterious organization had deliberately left clues to lure them to the island, with the aim of using them to unseal a certain mysterious force, which, once unleashed, would bring about no one knew what consequences. In addition, there is also a fierce power struggle within the mysterious organization, with different factions fighting each other, which also adds more variables to Shen Yifeng and Lin Yue's next adventure.
