Chapter 607 The Professional and the Professional Who Has a Wife

The moment Luke fell, Gold Nugget sent out four tentacles, two of which stuck to the ceiling and the other two to the ground. With the four tentacles exerting strength at the same time, Luke was thrown from the mouth of a passage further into the hallway. A criminal several meters away sensed something and looked around, only to see that the passage was empty and quiet, and nothing was out of place.

He scratched his head. “Did I not get enough sleep last night? Why do I feel like something gold just flew by?”

Luke, on the other hand, had been thrown ten meters into the hallway. He landed gently and unbuckled Gold Nugget, before he pointed at a door.

The dog stretched out a tentacle, opened the door on the right, and crept inside.

At that moment, a door on Luke’s left opened slightly.

Luke said very softly, “It’s me.” He then pushed the door open and walked in.

Robert’s face flashed in the door gap. He quickly closed the door after Luke entered.

Luke just said, “Let’s move to the room opposite. I’ve already opened the door.” Catherine came out of the living room, and Luke hugged her. “You packed everything?”

Catherine nodded. Luke had already asked them only to take items like their IDs and bank cards, and to leave behind other things like clothes.

Luke led Catherine to the door. He then raised his hand at Robert, who was on the alert.

Three, two, one! Luke left the room first and dashed into the room across the corridor with Catherine in his arms. Robert followed closely behind him and closed the doors of both rooms.

They accomplished the switch in the blink of an eye. Gold Nugget was nowhere to be seen in the room.

From that moment on, it would remain invisible and only provide support when necessary.

Robert finally couldn’t hold back anymore. “Didn’t you say you would hire reinforcements? Why did you come here yourself?!”

Taking Catherine to the window, Luke said very softly, “I’m precisely the strongest backup that you can’t even hire with money.” Robert was speechless. These words... seemed very hard to refute.

Not wasting time, Luke asked in a low voice, “How many floors have they searched?”

Robert: “The third floor from the top has been completely searched. Some of the assailants have already entered this first floor.”

Luke: “I’ll escort you down to the third floor.”

Robert glared at him. “How are we going to go down? Catherine’s here.”

Luke chuckled. “Don’t worry. I’ll take the both of you down. Catherine, I’ll hoist you down later. Don’t be scared.”

Catherine looked at him and nodded silently.

Luke would never play around with their lives. He wouldn’t do anything unless he was confident.

This suite had a window which opened onto a balcony.

The reason Luke chose to relocate them to this room was so that they could climb down from the balcony.

Securing Catherine to his front and holding Robert with his right hand, Luke threw out his grappling hook with his left hand, and the three of them went down swiftly.

On the third floor, Luke threw Robert onto the balcony and then jumped onto it with Catherine.

This room was empty.

After they entered the room, Luke opened the bag on his back and briefly told Robert how to use the wrist grappling hook.

Along with a special, secure buckle, it would allow Robert to relocate quickly with Catherine in an emergency situation without being restricted by the terrain. He didn’t need to explain the communication system or guns to Robert, who was a professional to begin with.

After Luke was done speaking, Robert frowned. “What are you going to do?”

Luke: “I’m going to keep an eye on the hostiles’ movements. If they plan to do something to the ship, we’ll have to escape immediately.”

Robert: “We’re on the ocean. How are we going to escape?”

Luke: “I’m rich. I can call for a plane to pick us up in an emergency.”

Robert was speechless.

For Luke to get here so quickly, he definitely spent a lot of money for a plane; it made sense that he would be able to call for a plane to pick them up later.

Of course, things weren’t that simple.

It would be very hard to find a plane willing to fly a thousand kilometers at night to land in the middle of the ocean to pick someone up.

The bearded pilot’s small plane couldn’t land on or take off from water, and planes that could were generally incapable of flying as far as two thousand kilometers.

Some of the larger seaplanes could, but they were rare and wouldn’t be available all the time.

Luke could only ensure Robert and Catherine’s safety first. If anything did go wrong with the ship, they could at least escape on a lifeboat first.

Robert frowned and thought for a moment. “I...”

Luke waved his hand. “You just keep Catherine safe. Just enjoy your life as a retiree now. Leave this to the professional.”

Robert was annoyed. “I’m a professional too.”

Luke blinked. “But I don’t have a wife.”

Robert cursed long and avidly in his heart, but couldn’t argue with that.

Looking at the two men bickering with each other, Catherine patted Robert on the head, and then Luke. “Okay, let’s do as Luke says, but you remember what I told you before, right?”

Luke raised his hand and saluted her. “Safety first, and don’t be rash.”

Catherine rubbed his head and sighed. “Just... remember that.”

She could tell how fearless Luke was, just from how he traveled across America in just a few hours and then a thousand kilometers out into the Atlantic.

She didn’t think that Luke could really be obedient. The men in the Coulson family might all look docile, but they wanted something more in their hearts.

She was only reminding Luke so that he wouldn’t be complacent.

It seemed like a long exchange, but their discussion took less than two minutes.

Luke gestured at Robert and Catherine not to worry. He then walked back to the balcony and gave Gold Nugget in the room next door a meaningful look to ensure their safety at all times.

There was no way he could leave the two of them alone here. Naturally, Gold Nugget was left behind to protect them.

Gold Nugget was ecstatic. It was now in charge of protecting not just one, but two of the fiend’s family members. That should be worth a thousand dollars, right?

Luke flung out his grappling hook and returned to the top floor. Relying on his agility, he moved quickly over the side of the cruise liner and soon reached the back of the ship.

A bunch of the criminals were transporting something there.

Luke took out binoculars to observe them carefully, only to find that they were moving what looked like cans of liquid.

Each can could hold around a gallon, and was white and not transparent. Judging from the packaging, it looked like... organic cow’s milk?

These guys were moving the cans very carefully. Obviously, whatever was in them had to be precious.

Two hundred professional criminals hijacked a ship of a thousand passengers just for a batch of organic milk?

Of course not. On the deck, several people were standing together. Two of them were giving orders to those who were moving the milk cans.
