The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 112
“I don’t know, I just can’t remember a thing, ” Peter shook his head agonizingly and sighed, “But there’s one thing I can be sure of. Laura did not want me to participate in the plan at all, and she was using me because she did not want me to be involved in anything related to the core secrets about the mermen. I suppose the answer lies on the island. I realized Laura stole my map when I woke up, including the copy was now gone. Luckily Jack managed to help me repair the data so that we could come here.
I let out a sigh of relief, and my body began to relax. I sat down and shared what happened to Gary and me recently as much as I could. Of course, I left out the parts where Dicken appeared and mainly talked about the American soldiers attacking the ship disguised as pirates.
After hearing what I said, Jolin, who had been silent for a long time, finally frowned and spoke, “If I am not wrong, this is indeed a military operation, but it i s illegal.”
She looked at us. Mixed emotions appeared in her beautiful eyes, “I had been suspicious for a long time. So I asked a friend of mine in the Admiralty to inspect Colonel Laura secretly. It was discovered that she had been dismissed for espionage three months ago, then she escaped from the detention center.
This is a military secret, so it was not publicized. She might have deceived Gary if he was not aware.”
I was shocked by the news. Espionage was a serious crime. What exactly did Laura want to do? Who was she working for?
I said in a low voice, “Maybe other countries were also involved in this incident. But anyway, since we have arrived on this island, we have to find out what Laura is up to, and we can’t let her succeed! “
