The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 4764

Charlie Wade was surprised when he saw the message on Lang Hongjun’s phone. He never expected Lang Hongjun to notice the issue so quickly.

With a smile, Charlie took the phone, typed a quick message, and said, “Oh, brother, your son doesn’t look like you at all. He’s much more handsome!” He typed, “Brother, what’s the problem?” and handed the phone back to Lang Hongjun.

Lang Hongjun took the phone and laughed, “My son looks like his mother. Don’t let my looks fool you; my daughter-in-law is beautiful! Just wait, I’ll find you some pictures of her when she was young!” As he spoke, he began typing and muttered, “Wow, I have so many photos, around 20,000 to 30,000. It’s tough to find them.”

After a bit, he handed the phone back to Charlie. “Hey, look at this photo from our wedding. No filters or beauty apps back then!”

Charlie took the phone and read a long message: “Brother, the driver said there’s no mobile signal here, but I just saw a signal tower in the wilderness about a kilometer or two away. It looks faint, but as a communication engineer, I can recognize a signal tower easily. Even if the equipment is old, we shouldn’t lose signal from just one or two kilometers away, especially with no obstructions for miles. Something is definitely off!”

Reading this, Charlie couldn’t help but admire Lang Hongjun but didn’t want him to get too carried away.

Lang Hongjun was feeling nervous but didn’t want to startle the snake nearby. To lighten the mood, he joked, “Don’t tell me, my sister-in-law was really beautiful when she was young!”

As he typed on his phone, he added, “Is the signal tower broken? Is it common for a signal tower to fall into disrepair around here?”

Charlie Wade took the phone from him. “By the way, I have a young daughter who looks a lot like my daughter-in-law. I’ll show you a photo,” Lang Hongjun said, still typing.

He continued, “I thought it was just me at first, but I checked the navigation software and it can’t even find satellite signals, which is really strange! Even if Mexico has poor infrastructure, the satellites in the sky should still work. GPS relies on more than 24 satellites operating on six orbital planes. Even if Mexico is remote, it should still receive satellite signals. But my phone can’t find any, which means there must be some kind of blocking device in the car that disrupts both communication and satellite signals.”

Charlie Wade couldn’t help but admire Lang Hongjun’s expertise. He thought, “It’s clear that the blinder used by the other party is a professional field, and Lang Hongjun, being an expert in communication, has quickly noticed something is off. He’s definitely smart.”

Worried about taking any rash actions, Charlie quickly responded on his phone, “Brother, let’s not act hastily. Let’s just observe for now.”

Lang Hongjun, feeling anxious, looked for a way to show Charlie his phone and replied,

“Brother, we can’t wait any longer! If we do, it might be too late for us to escape. If we wait, we’ll just be killed!” Lang Hongjun exclaimed.

Charlie Wade replied, “We can’t just jump out of the car. It’s going too fast, and jumping out could kill us. Plus, Old Mo, who’s driving, has a gun. If we jumped out and died, he would just shoot us too. We can’t take that risk.”

Lang Hongjun argued, “But once we reach their territory, we won’t have any chance to escape! We’ll be slaughtered there!”

Charlie Wade responded, “Look, we’re both poor and have nothing. They probably won’t kill us for money. They might want to use us as free labor. If we just cooperate and stay alive, we should be okay. If we run now, we’ll likely die in Mexico. I don’t want to end up buried in a place where no one cares.”

Hearing Charlie’s words, Lang Hongjun felt conflicted. He realized that Charlie might be right.
