Soon, they arrived at a wooded area near a beach. Nixon spotted a flicker of light from a cave not far away. So, he immediately shielded Shirley and whispered, “Miss Lloyd, there’s someone in that cave. I’ll scout the area up ahead.” He immediately turned around to get a visual on her. Yet, Shirley was gone.
She had already moved ahead.
“Hey! Miss Lloyd, be careful.” Nixon waved, and his men swiftly followed.
Shirley was extremely anxious at this moment. She could tell that something was wrong on this island as time passed. All her devices were malfunctioning. Why would someone go through all this effort just to jam the signals within this island? Just what clandestine agenda were they plotting?
Her mind already had an inkling of what the answer was.
They wanted to deal with someone. Someone of significant status-Zacharias.
She trod the difficult path ahead effortlessly. Although the terrain was challenging, her movements were swift and agile. It was as if she was a ghost gliding through all her obstacles. When her companions saw that, they had to acknowledge that the child personally trained by their leader truly possessed exceptional skills.
Sure enough, Shirley was soon near the cave. She crouched beside a rock while peering through a pair of binoculars, intending to observe the situation from a safe distance. Suddenly, someone emerged from the cave. She couldn’t see the person’s face clearly. Still, she could recognize the person from his silhouette.
It was Roy.
Her heart surged with excitement and joy. She turned to Nixon. “That should be where Zacharias is hiding, Mr. Nixon. I’m going there now, and you can join me in a bit.”
“Miss Lloyd…” Nixon hadn’t even finished his sentence when Shirley rushed to the cave.
“Lord! It’s tiring to keep an eye on kids.” Nixon sighed as he signaled for his four men to follow.
Shirley swiftly arrived near the cave entrance. At this moment, she knew that she could not afford to enter rashly as it could spark a misunderstanding. Since the situation was dire, Zacharias’ men had no way of differentiating allies apart from enemies. Thus, she had to move cautiously to prevent a needless conflict from sparking.
She threw a stone to knock against the wall. Soon, a figure carefully emerged from the cave to inspect the noise. Shirley recognized him as one of Roy’s men. So, she immediately seized his gun, covered his mouth, and dragged him into the shadows.
