"What, we can't take a boat back to the mainland? What, what's going on?"

Sitting over there, Lin Yaru couldn't contain herself after hearing this, so she hurriedly walked over.

She stared at the screen carefully, but the blinking cursors and the data were things Lin Yaru couldn't understand at all.

However, seeing the expressions on Anying and Ye Chen's faces, Lin Yaru knew that they probably encountered a troublesome situation this time.

"Could it be that those people tracked us here? Maybe they already know we're investigating this matter, so they're trying to trap us on this deserted island?"

"I don't know, but if the GPS module is not having any deviation in positioning, then the boat has indeed drifted away with the current, and did you see? Just now, when we tried to position it again, it deviated even more, and now it's flowing eastward with the sea currents."

"To the east, that would mean a vast ocean."

"Yes, a vast ocean."

"Then, what do we do now? Are we really trapped on this island?"

"Now, there's no point in dwelling on these things. It doesn't matter, I brought the satellite positioning system's satellite phone, so at that time, we'll find a way to contact someone on the mainland and have them send a ship to pick us up."

Luckily, Anying was quite well-prepared this time, so after saying this, Ye Chen finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Alright, it seems that all our equipment might come in handy this time. Oh, by the way, check the satellite phone, it should be working fine, right?"

"How could it not be? The satellite phone isn't affected by any interference from this island, it directly links to the satellites in the sky, so there won't be any issues, and I haven't even turned it on yet."

Saying this, Anying took out a black phone from her backpack, resembling an old-style mobile phone, and held it in her hand.

"See, the red light indicates it's now working, this green light, no, this green light..."

Anying saw the green cursor flashing continuously, meaning that the phone was actively searching for the satellite signal.

"What does this mean?"

"It means that it hasn't found the satellite signal; if it can't find the satellite signal, my phone can't communicate with the outside world."

"You're not joking with me, are you?"

"Do you think I'm in the mood to joke with you right now?"

"What's going on? Didn't you say it wouldn't be affected by this island's interference?"

"Unless those people are more professional and they know I have a satellite positioning system, so they added an atmospheric wave from above. The atmospheric wave is causing interference, making it impossible for me to directly connect to the satellite overhead."

"Are you saying someone could be sabotaging your satellite signal?"

"Exactly, that's indeed the case, but achieving this requires a lot of effort, manpower, and financial resources, and the process can only last about seven days."

"Lasting seven days, how should I understand that?"

"In other words, the so-called signal jamming can only last seven days, and after seven days, the atmospheric layer will naturally dissipate with the air currents, and by then, the satellite will re-establish its system with me."

"So, even if they want to trap us, they can only keep us on the island for seven days?"

"Yes, that's how it seems for now, but whether they might exert other influences on this island later, we don't know."

"Oh no, if that's the case, what should we do next?"

Now, it seemed like everyone was pinning their hopes on Anying.

After all, it was Anying who brought them here, and it was also Anying solving all these technical challenges on her own.

Now, with the sudden departure of the boat and the satellite phone unable to connect to the satellite, they really didn't know if Anying had any other means to ensure their survival.

Listening to the two anxiously asking questions, Anying didn't speak but just shook her head helplessly, then put all the equipment back into the box.

"Anying, what's going on, tell us."

"Actually, now that things have reached this stage, I don't even know how to explain to you guys. At the moment, within seven days, I can only say that we can't use these high-tech means to contact the outside world."

"So in other words, within these seven days, we can't leave, but what might happen within these seven days is still an unknown, right?"

"I don't know who these people are targeting. Also, are these people related to your dad's disappearance, or is it the same group that's been tailing you, that's another matter altogether."

"I feel, given your current situation, it's likely related to his disappearance, which proves we're now searching for clues, and it might have gradually caught their attention."

"If that's the case, we must speed up our pace and absolutely prevent their plot from succeeding. Maybe they haven't realized we've discovered the secret of this swamp."

"Yes, given how concealed this place is, how could it be easily noticed? Hence, they probably haven't noticed yet."

"Since they haven't noticed, it proves they won't take any offensive actions toward us in the near future, so we must find these clues tonight and plan to leave here by tomorrow."

"But the boat? The boat is gone, and now they've disabled our satellite phone, so how are we supposed to do that?"
