Chapter 658: Chapter 326: The Past Is Hard to Erase

Li Ang interrupted her: "I know in my heart that you’re doing this for me, but if we want this to go smoothly, I hope you can do the following. Since you’ve made your stance clear, listen up."

"First, don’t wander around, stay within my sight."

"Second, don’t talk to anyone else, just talk to me, although I doubt you would anyway."

Even though he believed Meluna wouldn’t engage with outsiders, Li Ang still cautioned him just in case.

"Third, don’t ’do whatever you want’, and if you feel like chopping someone up, ask me first. Let me think if there’s anything else to add..."

The more Li Ang instructed, the more he recalled past scenes. Initially, he had to guide her through numerous basic concepts, and these instructions were similar to what he used to say when they went out.

As their relationship progressed, especially when this wild creature-like person lowered her defenses to be close to him, started cuddling, and sharing warmth, he quite enjoyed it at the time. Now, his feelings are a bit complex.

"I’ve memorized them."

"Good, then follow me out to act tonight."

Having finished instructing Meluna, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief and saw Andasu beside him.

White Wolf, though silent, was already wagging her tail. Watching Li Ang interact with an ex-girlfriend kept her from staying calm.

Li Ang thought for a moment but didn’t know what to say. Racking his brains daily over these women was indeed exhausting, so he lay on the bed and closed his eyes.

"Let’s conserve energy for the night," he said.

As night fell, because Reed had no combat power, he planned to stay in the dormitory. Before lights-out time, he had already struck up a conversation with some racing boat driver, voluntarily taking on the responsibility of gathering information.

At lights-out, crowds finally poured out from the factory toward the dormitory. It seemed they were indeed forced to work until late at night.

The workers were extremely fatigued or, under coercion, had no permissions or desire for interaction, and soon after returning to the dormitory, each went to sleep. The residential area fell silent within a short period.

Once everyone was supposed to be asleep, Li Ang took the two young girls and left the building.

This time, without Morales’s Shadow Curtain, he proceeded with controlled breaths, quietly, and was ready at any moment to deploy Spiritual Driving.

As they came before, the main entry and exit points of the seven shipyards like Wamos Shipyard were monitored by the Imperial Guard, while only The Soul Apex’s people watched internally.

The main force named Crook was currently at the factory, likely living and eating there to ensure the warship production went smoothly.

Andasu walked lightly, and Meluna’s power was condensed to the extreme, making no sound at all as they moved. In contrast, Li Ang had to use a slow-moving air current to move silently.

Circling through the shadows cast by buildings, avoiding the few sleepless workers smoking on balconies, Li Ang identified key points.

These dormitory buildings considered workers’ homes, but singles and families lived differently. After starting a family, they usually had a fully functional apartment. This information was basic, provided by the Shadow Shipyard prior to arrival.

During the day, no one was present in these dormitories, and no workers’ family members returned at night, indicating their families were likely concentrated elsewhere. It wasn’t surprising; it made coercion easier.

The coming days would hinge on finding out where these people were taken.

Li Ang left Shadow Factory contact codes on various walls of the dormitory. According to the Underground Fighters, they had people inside each major shipyard, Wamos Shipyard included.

If these Infiltrators saw the codes, they would know their people were preparing to act. Once the information was relayed, they could make arrangement to meet up.

"Let’s go, check the factory, then visit other shipyards."

Nothing special was in the factory, just warships under construction and Annihilation Star Soul Flesh ready for disposal. Visiting two other shipyards, they were similar to Wamos Shipyard.

Estimating the time was about right, just as Li Ang was preparing to head back, he suddenly saw the figures of the three main forces he recognized from The Soul Apex.
