hapter 313 At the Sea?!
George shook his head, and said with some excitement, “It’s not too late. You’re also trying to find Mr. Eric. The equipment here in Bastilla is ultimately not as good as your own.”
Edward chuckled lightly, then let his gaze fall on Kate, giving her a kind smile. “Hello, Kate. I’m Edward.”
Kate shook his hand and then, with some urgency, looked at George and asked, “Trying to find Eric? George, what are you saying?”
Edward smiled again, and spoke with a hint of reassurance, “Don’t worry, Kate. I’ve already tracked down the latest location of the chip inside Mr. Eric’s body. It’s a hassle to use, but… it’s our last option.”
“W–what do you mean?”
Kate squeezed her fists subconsciously, and stared at Edward blankly.
In her past life, she had never met Edward, but she had heard about him several times from George and the others.
She knew that George had a very good relationship with Eric, who was always staying abroad, but she didn’t know which country or what he was researching.
However, in the field of hacking technology, Edward was a genius. The firewall of the Davison Group was jointly set up by Edward and Eric. In this life, George had also mentioned him to her.
Nevertheless, this was the first time she encountered Edward in two lifetimes.
“The chip is injected into Mr. Eric’s body. It’s very small, almost undetectable by ordinary methods. It has an extremely subtle positioning device and is usually in a dormant state. It won’t be activated unless necessary.

“So, does this mean we now know exactly where Eric is?”
Kate’s fists instinctively clenched tighter. Her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at Edward.
She had been unable to find any trace of Eric for nearly twenty days, her heart suspended in constant anxiety. Now, she heard that the chip’s tracking device might locate Eric. Does this mean I will see him again soon?
Edward looked at Kate for a long moment before shaking his head gently. His expression was

Chapter 313 At the Sea?!
At the sea?!
Kate’s eyes widened in shock.
Didn’t Eric be attacked on the mountains outside Melvern City? How did he end up at sea? Could someone have taken him away?
Thinking of these possibilities made her heart clench tighter.
Ding! While they spoke, Herbert’s laptop emitted a sound.
Everyone’s attention snapped to the screen. On the minimalist black–and–white webpage, a chat window began to blink.
George clicked the chat window without hesitation. His heart racing with a mix of excitement and hope.
The person who had been contacting Herbert was reaching out again!
When the chat window opened, a photograph appeared in front of everyone.
Kate’s body shivered violently as she saw it. Her eyes widened in surprise. She subconsciously took a step forward.
Edward squinted his eyes. He darted forward, quickly taking the mouse from George, who naturally stepped aside to let Edward sit before the laptop.
Edward’s fingers flew over the keyboard. He quickly zoomed in the photo, saved it, and then began analyzing the entire website.
While he was performing this action, a message popped up. ‘Eric is in our hands. If you want him to live, hand over what was hidden all those years ago!”
