Chapter: 2666

Charlie Wade smiled slightly and said, “Miss He, you have too many questions. But I can assure you, I am not working with the opposition. I received your father’s message a few hours ago, so I rushed over from China.”

A shocked man with yellow skin exclaimed, “How is that possible? We were caught only half a day ago! You can’t get here from China in such a short time!”

Charlie Wade smiled and replied, “What seems impossible to you might not be impossible at all.”

He then turned to He Zhiqiu and said, “We’re running out of time. I’ll get you an opposition suit. Once you put it on, follow me.”

He Zhiqiu quickly asked, “What about my friends?”

Charlie shrugged and said, “I don’t have a solid plan to save all eight of you right now. So, you’ll come with me first, and I’ll take you to a safe place. If I can, I’ll think about coming back for the others.”

At that moment, a blond man spoke in broken Chinese, “I think you’re lying! There are one or two thousand opposition members outside. What can you do to save us?”

Charlie nodded and said, “You’re right. I can’t save you, so just stay put for now.”

The blond man scoffed and replied angrily, “I don’t need your help! There are so many guards outside. If I go out with you, I’ll be shot down! I’ll wait for my country to rescue me! Maybe they’ll agree to the opposition’s demands or send a SEAL team to save us!”

“Exactly!” a blonde girl chimed in, speaking in Chinese. “Our US Navy SEALs are the best special forces in the world. They handle the toughest missions!”

around the world, and you believe they will protect you from global threats. The leader of the molecules is not a concern for me; I trust they will come to our rescue!

Charlie Wade smiled and asked, “How do you know the United States will send a Navy SEAL to help you? Where does your confidence come from?”

A dark-skinned American boy beside him quickly replied, “In the United States, we are strong. We won’t let any foreign forces threaten our citizens! Plus, we have many military bases around the world, especially in the Middle East!”

He continued, “Turkey, which is near Syria, has several of our bases. And Saudi Arabia, to the south of Syria, has one too! So, it’s very likely that our homeland will send a SEAL team from those locations to save us!”

Charlie Wade was impressed and exclaimed, “I must say, you all are quite knowledgeable! You speak Chinese so fluently—did you study it specifically?”

An Indian-American boy chimed in with pride, “Honestly, we are all top students in the U.S. Most of us have multiple master’s degrees and doctorates. We can speak several languages, including Chinese, Japanese, French, and German!”

Charlie Wade gave him a thumbs up and smiled, “That’s amazing!”

Then, he changed the subject slightly and sighed, “But I really wonder how you can learn so many languages when you seem a bit clueless. Do people who lack common sense really have a talent for languages?”

The boy looked shocked and asked, “What did you just say?!”

Charlie Wade smirked and replied, “You mentioned you have military bases in many places…”

“Why am I here, surrounded by all these countries, when I can see the distances from Huaxia One? Your SEALs are so nearby, yet they still haven’t shown up?”
