Toph paused, his curiosity piqued. “Fireflies? What does that mean?”
Zuko squinted, deep in thought. The appearance of the location tracking and the signal being sent meant that
Lina’s current situation couldn’t be too dangerous. And the word “fireflies”…
A confident smile formed on Zuko’s face. “They’ll be in Southeast Aciatic!”
“What?” Toph exclaimed, taken aback. “You’re certain about this based on just one word?”
Zuko nodded assertively. “There’s no mistake. It’s Southeast Aciatic, for sure! Even if Melvin doesn’t tell us Uncle
Nicholas, we’ll find them!”
Toph’s disbelief faded as Zuko reassured him with a pat on the shoulder and a reassuring smile. “If you want to see
Renee soon, pack your things and come with me!”
“Okay…”
Zuko calmly organized the arrangements, addressing Uncle Nicholas. “Don’t withdraw your men just yet. We’ll split
into two groups. Your team will continue the search here while Toph and I will leave immediately.”
“I won’t withdraw them,” Nicholas replied, his voice filled with determination. “But I… I want to go to Southeast
Aciatic with you!”
Zuko hesitated for a moment before responding. “But Uncle Nicholas—”

and let us join you! We… We want to embrace our daughter again—we want to bring her back ourselves!”
A pang tugged at Zuko’s heart. He quickly made arrangements, rushing to Southeast Aciatic overnight and sending
people to pick up Jesse and Melissa, settling them down in Centrolis first. Then, he made a call to Irwin Manor.
“Grandpa, I need your help with something…”
“Mm, it involves your daughter-in-law!” Grandpa chuckled, his words clear. “Well, two of them, actually!”
…
Finally, the large ship docked at the Southeast Aciatic pier.
In the early hours of the morning, a faint light peeked from the sky, signaling the imminent dawn.
Lina and Renee stood on the deck, following Krystal’s lead.
Krystal maintained a cool expression as her armed subordinates surrounded her. Observing her, Lina couldn’t help
but recall scenes from the Pirates of the Caribbean, seeing Krystal as a fierce heroine.
Suppressing her nervousness, Lina let out a small chuckle.
As soon as the ship docked, the atmosphere came alive.
Lina and Renee held onto each other tightly, mentally prepared for what awaited them. However, they couldn’t help
but scream in surprise when the first gunshot rang out, causing them to instinctively huddle together.
The chaos ensued as gunshots filled the air, accompanied by the scent of gunpowder and blood.
Sirens wailed in the distance.
Krystal turned back, her gaze fierce as she barked, “What are you waiting for? Get off the ship! Go!”
Lina and Renee wanted to comply, but their legs trembled, making each step feel like walking on cotton.
Frustrated and anxious, Krystal rushed forward and enveloped them in her arms.
“So useless!”
“Madame Krys…”
Krystal pushed them toward the stairs. “Go this way. Once you’re down, head to the shore!”
“Madame Krys!” Lina glanced back, worried. “Come with us!”
Krystal widened her eyes, glaring at them. “Are you crazy? I still have a group of girls on board! You think I’ll
abandon them and leave with you? Do you want me to starve?”
“You…”
“No more nonsense! Take your cousin and go!” Krystal retrieved a small pistol from her pocket and handed it to
Lina.
Just yesterday, she had taught the two girls how to use it. Now, she gave them the pistol for self-defense in case of
emergencies.

The shootout escalated, with the drug traffickers displaying their desperation while the police reinforced their
position.
Lina understood that their top priority was to avoid exposing themselves, to avoid becoming hostages to Justin, and
not to hinder the police.
Krystal and Lina were on different paths.
Keeping everyone safe individually was more important than anything else.
With determination, Lina retrieved the pistol from her pocket, adjusting her aim for any possible scenario, and
quietly prepared to defend herself.
Just as she did, Krystal made a sudden move. She struck Justin with her elbow, lifted her leg high, and stomped her
stiletto heel down forcefully on his foot.
Justin winced in pain and inadvertently fired a shot.
But the gun didn’t go off!
As Renee had calculated, Justin’s gun was already empty!
Enraged, Justin released Krystal just as the police were about to open fire…
They managed to stop in time, ensuring Krystal’s safety. However, Justin gripped Krystal’s hair tightly and swung
her violently, nearly throwing her off the deck.
Amidst the chaos, Lina swiftly aimed her pistol at Justin and pulled the trigger, her movements calm and steady.
