The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 4763

The young man asked Charlie Wade and Lang Hongjun to call home first because his car had a special device that blocked signals. Once they left the city, he planned to activate this device to stop the signal towers from tracking the movements of their phones.

In the city, mobile phones connect to ground-based signal towers. These towers overlap, creating a network that covers almost every area. When a phone moves, it automatically connects to the strongest signal available. This means that as the phone travels through different locations, it keeps searching for the best signal and switches between towers. Because of this, the towers record information about the phone’s access.

If someone wants to track a person’s movements using their phone, they can retrieve data about when the phone connected to each tower. This information can create an accurate map of where the person has been, which could reveal the location of their hideout.

To mislead them, the young man pretended that the infrastructure in Mexico was poor. He hoped this would prepare Charlie and Lang for the moment when their phones lost signal, so they wouldn’t think anything was wrong.

After picking them up from the airport, the car headed south. About ten kilometers into the journey, the young man subtly reached under the passenger seat and flipped a hidden switch. This switch turned on the signal-blocking device.

Once activated, all signals within five…

Lang Hongjun was chatting with Charlie Wade as they drove. He was also messaging his wife on WeChat when suddenly, his phone lost signal. Surprised, he exclaimed, “Oh, the internet is gone already…”

Charlie laughed and said, “That’s pretty normal in Mexico. Once you leave the city, your phone usually doesn’t work.”

Lang Hongjun nodded and set his phone down. He looked out at the barren landscape and asked Charlie, “Brother, did you notice the difference coming from the United States to Mexico? The wilderness out there looks like a no-man’s land.”

Charlie smiled and replied, “I adapt easily. You can put me in a five-star hotel today, and I won’t be excited. Tomorrow, if you put me in a tent in the wild, I won’t mind sleeping under the stars.”

Lang Hongjun grinned and said, “You have a great attitude. You’re a true optimist, able to adjust to anything.”

“Exactly,” Charlie agreed with a smile. “After being here for so many years, I can’t say I know everything, but I can handle whatever comes my way.”

Lang Hongjun gave a thumbs up and said, “I wish I could be as carefree as you.”

As they spoke, Lang Hongjun’s gaze drifted into the distance. He noticed something unusual in the wilderness, and his expression changed as he quickly grabbed his phone and started fiddling with it, looking more concerned.

Charlie Wade noticed that Lang Hongjun was acting differently. He saw Lang Hongjun carefully watching the Mexican driver, which made Charlie think, “Does Lang Hongjun sense something is off?”

Before Charlie could dwell on it, Lang Hongjun picked up his phone, fiddled with it for a moment, and then handed it to Charlie with a smile. “Brother, let me show you a picture of my son. He looks so handsome!” he said.

Charlie looked at the phone, but instead of a photo, he saw a message: “Brother, something is wrong with this kid! We might have been tricked!”
