As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Zhiyi’s expression changed immediately.
If they really used a scanner, the tracker on her body would undoubtedly be exposed.
As much as possible, Chen Zhiyi tried to remain calm.
At this point, the things she could do were extremely limited.
All she could do was try to delay time, to provide more opportunities for the Central Guards Brigade.
"You’re still so cautious," Maldi said with a hearty laugh:
"If there really were a tracker, they would have caught up by now, and Hawke wouldn’t have had the chance to board the ship."
Chen Zhiyi kept her head slightly lowered, trying to hide her expression and avoid Blood Bull Club members noticing anything amiss.
"It’s always better to be cautious, checking is not a problem,"
Maldi didn’t say much this time, just like Joyce said, checking is never a problem.
Soon, Hawke pulled out a handheld scanner and walked over to Chen Zhiyi.
Her face turned pale, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
Holding the scanner, Hawke swept it across Chen Zhiyi’s back.
Luckily, the scanning started from below the neck and didn’t reach her hindbrain.
Chen Zhiyi secretly let out a sigh of relief, trying to remain calm, knowing that if they found out, everything would be over.
Switching hands, Hawke scanned the front of Chen Zhiyi.
The attitude was somewhat casual, still scanning downward from the neck.
"See, what did I tell you?" Maldi said:
"If there really was a situation, they would have caught up by now."
Joyce shook his glass, "It seems I overestimated the Central Guards Brigade; these people are really not great."
"Only their Merit Team Leader is quite capable, but at this moment, he might just be arriving from Zhong Hai to Jing City, and we’ve already left."
"Haha..."
Joyce burst out laughing, "I bet they still don’t know who’s behind this."
Maldi also laughed, then looked at Hawke.
"Take her away and have someone watch her."
"Got it."
Hawke replied casually, tossing the scanner to a companion and leading Chen Zhiyi away.
Chen Zhiyi’s gaze followed the scanner as it flew past her.
Her anxious heart finally settled down.
As long as they didn’t find the tracker on her, there was still hope!
Beep beep--
But just then, the scanner emitted a beeping sound.
In an instant, Chen Zhiyi’s expression changed, turning deathly pale.
The others in the room also had changed expressions.
The atmosphere turned cold suddenly.
Everyone’s gaze fell on the scanner.
"What’s going on?"
Joyce stood up and said to Hawke:
"Scan her again."
Hawke held the scanner, with an expression completely serious and opposite from before.
This time, Hawke scanned down from the top of Chen Zhiyi’s head.
Beep beep--
When he scanned her face, the scanner went off again.
This time, everyone was extremely tense.
"Damn it, she’s got a tracker on her!"
Joyce stormed over, "Search her!"
A large group of people rushed over, starting to search Chen Zhiyi’s body.
"Open your mouth!"
Hawke pinched Chen Zhiyi’s cheeks, trying to force her to open her mouth.
But Chen Zhiyi kept her mouth tightly shut, glaring angrily at Hawke!
