This time, everyone sensed something was wrong.
If the first time was a coincidence, then this time it definitely wasn’t.
Everyone’s eyes fell on Lin Yi and Ning Che, waiting for them to make a decision.
"Keep moving forward."
Lin Yi issued the order, his eyes and expression turning sharp, fully engaging his visual and auditory abilities.
Following Ning Che’s route, everyone continued forward.
Half an hour later, they encountered two more people.
Just like before, as soon as they saw people from the Central Guards Brigade, they immediately ran away.
"Stay where you are, follow my orders!"
Leaving those words, Lin Yi immediately rushed towards the two fleeing individuals.
With Lin Yi’s current abilities, Kandaya Forest was no threat to him. His sprinting speed was even faster, and it didn’t take long to catch up with the two escaping people.
Seeing Lin Yi catching up, the two ran desperately towards the perimeter.
But the gap in strength between them was vast, Lin Yi was much faster.
In less than a minute, the distance between them closed to within three meters.
Lin Yi leapt into the air, delivering a flying kick to one person’s back.
"Ah—"
A scream echoed as the man immediately fell to the ground.
Lin Yi drew out a hand knife, placing it against the person’s neck.
Seeing the dire situation, his companion dared not move and stood still in fear.
"If you don’t want to die, put your hands on your head and squat down."
Following Lin Yi’s instructions, both squatted down.
Simultaneously, Lin Yi reported his location, summoning two teams to come over.
Soon enough, members from the two teams arrived.
Sui Qiang held a knife against their neck, "Speak, are you following us."
"Team Leader Lin, don’t use force. We’re just doing a job for money, nothing else," the black man said, raising his hands.
"If you don’t want to die, speak quickly, whose money are you taking to do this?" Lin Yi said calmly.
"It was Morrison who paid us to monitor the movements of the Central Guards Brigade and report to them immediately if we found anything."
"Who is Morrison?"
"He’s with the White Bear Organization, the one who provoked you on the day you arrived on the island."
"So it was them."
Lin Yi muttered, feeling it was unexpected yet reasonable.
Given the provocations since they landed on the island, such actions were understandable.
"They’re very targeted. Recently, the Central Guards Brigade hasn’t had any special operations; they must be coming for you," Ning Che said.
"It should be clear now, they’re people sent by the Kaijie Group," Lin Yi said with a smile.
"I guess they’ve been looking for you but couldn’t find you, so they resorted to offering bounties to send these people out," Ning Che added.
"Now it’s up to you to decide how to handle them?"
"Ignore them, continue as we planned."
Even with this occurrence, Lin Yi’s plan remained unchanged.
Everything would proceed according to his plan; there was no need to waste energy on this matter.
After speaking, Lin Yi looked at the two. "In the forest looking for us, it should all be your people, right?"
"Yes, all our people..."
"Tell them to stop following. If I see them again, I’ll kill them one by one, understood?"
"Understood..."
"Now get lost."
"Thank you, Team Leader Lin."
After hurriedly thanking him, the two quickly left, as the members of the Central Guards Brigade turned their eyes to Lin Yi and Ning Che.
"Return the way we came, and be cautious, keep an eye on the surroundings."
"Understood."
Following Lin Yi’s instructions, everyone retraced their steps to the tunnel entrance.
The team responsible for pick-up was already waiting there. Once everyone left, they camouflaged the tunnel entrance again and left calmly.
