Even though Youyou was being protected in someone’s embrace to reduce impact, the force of falling from a height of more than twenty meters into the sea was undoubtedly the same as falling from a tall building!

  He tightened his breathing mask and greedily inhaled the thin oxygen.

  The mercenary who was protecting him suffered a huge blow to his head and had died on the spot from internal bleeding.

  Despite the fact that the man had breathed his last, he clung to the boy. Yet it was this protection that kept the boy locked in his arms as the man’s body fell and sank into the abyss.

  He was getting further and further away from the surface. Youyou kept reaching out, but it was all in vain!

  “Mommy…”


  He struggled to open his mouth and let out a string of blurry syllables.

  “Daddy…”


  “Brother…”


  He kept struggling, his survival instincts prodded him on.

  But there was also a greater reason. There was someone he cared about.

  “Yue… yao…”


  …


  The helicopter disintegrated in the air. Debris from the explosion kept falling into the sea and floated on the surface.

  Smoke filled the sky…


  …


  At five o’clock in the morning, the sky was beginning to brighten.

  The horizon stretched as far as the eye could see.

  Two huge armed ships sailed around the area where Youyou had fallen, while the aircraft carrier was docked at the center. The speedboat was lowered into the water, and search operations commenced.

  More than ten speedboats darted around on the sea surface, cleaning up the layer of oil as quickly as they could.

  An entire hour had passed. So many of his subordinates had been sent out, but so far, they had only managed to salvage some remains of the helicopter and a suitcase. The five hundred million dollars in the suitcase was actually intact.

  Little Yichen was still unconscious.

  Yun Shishi had been unconscious for a short period of time, but when she regained consciousness and received this grievous news, her heart skipped a beat!

  Youyou had fallen into the sea!

  Now, there was no news of him, and his fate was unknown!

  Yun Shishi could not take such a huge blow. She did not believe it, but when she rushed out of the cabin and saw the scene before her, she finally believed that Youyou had really fallen into the sea and disappeared.

  The cause of the crash was the explosion of the helicopter. However, the cause of the explosion remained unknown at this point.

  From a height of twenty meters in the air, he had fallen into the sea, no one knew if he was alive or dead.

  Unable to put his mind to rest, Mu Yazhe put on his diving suit and personally went to the sea to search for Youyou.

  Gong Jie, on the other hand, was calmly giving instructions while comforting the terrified Yun Shishi.

  Yun Shishi guarded the cabin and did not go anywhere. She was full of anticipation that the person in charge of the search operation would bring back good news, but apart from some debris, some parts, and a few floating corpses, there was no breakthrough.

  The deepest part of the ocean was thousands of meters deep.

  So far, the search team that had been sent out would mainly search 300 meters or less below the water surface. 300 meters. This was already pushing the limit of the search range. The deeper parts of the sea were depths that could not be reached. It was too dangerous and required the use of instruments. The ship was equipped with such instruments and had already been deployed for the operation. However, there had been no leads.

  The search area was shrinking.

  It would take a lot of effort just to salvage the debris alone.

  Looking for an eight-year-old child was like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

  “Commanding Officer!” A diver returned to report that he had found a body.

  Yun Shishi stood up agitatedly. Gong Jie immediately questioned what kind of corpse it was.

  Everyone held their breaths nervously, afraid of hearing the bad news.
