Chapter 1787: Are you this trusting?!

Penny’s plan was simple.

To catch if there was a mole. Thus, the three of them just idled on the island. Penny, Shawn, Slater, and their three hostages stared at the sky until a helicopter finally came into view. They tried guessing who was inside the chopper, with Penny even wanting to put a bet on it.

Obviously, neither Slater nor Shawn agreed with the bet. So, in the end, she forced the other three hostages—including the unconscious one—to have a bet with her.

And just like that, they started counting all the aircraft that passed by them before sending their own.

To do that, Penny devised a plan to make the chopper fly on its own without anyone in it. Using some extra gauze, they wrapped all the handles and buttons. But to start it, someone needed to be inside and get it to the sky.

So, Shawn volunteered—or rather, Slater forced him to do it.

With that, Shawn maneuvered the chopper until he was above the clouds, spinning around the area without alerting anyone. Once everything was set, he moved it and fixed it to the hill. However, before it even came into view, Shawn already jumped out with a parachute strapped around him.

By the time he reached the ocean, Penny and Slater were already in the smaller helicopter—the one Slater used—and picked him up from there. They then made their way to another island closer to their target, and from there, they stole a raft to bring them to the next point.

However, when they reached the next island, they almost got caught up in a battle between two groups. Hence, they ended up in this small hut somewhere near the main road but far enough to avoid getting noticed if someone drove past them.

And somehow, Penny wanted to stay in this place.

"No! You’ll infect my Tiana!" Penny yelled, erasing Slater’s drawing with her foot. "Stay away from us."

Slater yelled back, "Why do you keep erasing my drawings?" He then extended his long leg and erased half of the girl’s stick figure.

Amid Penny and Slater’s nonsense bickering, they paused when they suddenly heard a loud rotor sound. Looking up, their brows knitted as they caught sight of a chopper flying in the distance.
