Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 72

Chapter 72

The menacing black barrel of a gun was aiming at a man and woman right before it.

Among the three people of different races, holding guns, one Asian man, speaking Japanese with some difficulty, coldly said to Eileen and Egbert, “Don’t move!”

Eileen and Egbert glanced at each other, raised their hands, and didn’t resist.

The criminals started conversing in the local language.

“Which country’s military uniform are they wearing?”

“Are they here to capture us? But they don’t seem like it; they’re not carrying any weapons.”

“You’re the interpreter; why don’t you ask them?”

The Asian man asked, “Are you in the military?”

Out of the corner of her eye, Eileen noticed that the drone in the sky had flown further away, hiding behind the trees.

She squinted her eyes, then said, “We’re from the International Wildlife Rescue Association. We received a signal that a juvenile jaguar, which had been implanted with a tracking chip, was in danger in the northwest of the jungle. Its vital signs are weak, and we’re here to rescue it.”

The Asian man furrowed his brow and relayed that explanation to his companions.

Eileen carefully listened to their conversation.

Their language skills varied, indicating that they were not from the same country.

What brought them together?

As Eileen was mulling over this, a brown-skinned man with a submachine gun walked over, using the barrel of his gun to flick off Egbert’s hat.

Eileen was on alert, ready to take action at any moment.

Egbert suddenly grabbed her wrist and gave her a look, signaling her not to act rashly.
