The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie was very surprised when he saw the text on Hugo's cell phone.

He did not expect that Hugo would be able to see through the problem so quickly.

So, he took the cell phone while secretly typing on it as he said with a smile, "Oh, Hugo! Your son doesn't look like you at all. He's much more handsome compared to you!"

As he spoke, he typed a sentence on the cell phone: [What's the problem?]

After that, he handed the cell phone back to Hugo.

Hugo took the cell phone back from Charlie and said with a smile, "My son looks like his mother. My wife is really beautiful. Wait a minute, I'll find and show you a picture of my wife when she was young!" Having said that, he typed on his cell phone and muttered, "Oh, there are too many photos on my cell phone. I have about twenty to thirty thousand photos in here. It's really difficult for me to find the picture." After a while, he handed the cell phone to Charlie and said, "Here, take a look. This is a photo of us when we got married. There were no such things as photoshopped pictures, retouched pictures, or pictures with photo filters back then."

Charlie took the cell phone and saw a large paragraph written on it. [The lad driving the car said that there is no cell phone signal here, but I just saw a signal tower about one or two kilometers away in the wilderness. It might be very vague, but I'm a communication engineer myself, so I can recognize a signal tower at a glance. Reasonably speaking, even if it's an old base station, it would be impossible for there to be no signal after only one or two kilometers. What's more, there are no shelters for tens of kilometers here, so it's even more likely that there is no signal. I think something is definitely not right!]noveldrama

When Charlie saw this, he could not help but feel impressed with Hugo. However, he did not want Hugo to get nervous too soon and alert the enemies. So, he said, "Wow! Your wife was really beautiful when she was young!"

Having said that, he typed a sentence on the cell phone: [Could that signal tower be broken? Isn't it normal for the signal towers in this kind of place to not be repaired for a long time?]

Hugo took the cell phone back. As he typed, he spoke up, "By the way, I have a young daughter who looks a lot like my wife too. I'll find a photo of her for you."

Having said that, Hugo typed

another sentence: [I thought so at first too, but I checked the navigation software just now and found that the navigation software can't even find satellite signals, which is even more strange! Even if the infrastructure in Mexico is very poor and the signal tower just now is really broken, the satellites in the sky would not be broken. GPS has more than twenty-four satellites working on six orbital planes at the same time. So, even if Mexico was an uninhabited land, you would still receive satellite signals. However, I can't find any satellite signals on my cell phone. This proves that there must be some kind of shielding equipment in the car, which can shield both communication signals and satellite signals at the same time."

When Charlie saw this, he could not help but sigh as he thought to himself, 'Sure enough, he's indeed a specialist in his field. The shielding equipment installed by the other party happens to be in Hugo's field, and as a talent in the field of communications, Hugo could instantly sense that something is wrong. It's clear that Hugo is definitely a smart person.'

Charlie was afraid that Hugo would act rashly, so he replied on the cell phone: [Hugo, don't act rashly. Let's see how things go first.]

Hugo was anxious and quickly found another reason to show Charlie his cell phone again as he replied: [Bro, we can't procrastinate! It might not be too late for us to find a way to escape now, but if we are brought to that place, we can only wait to be slaughtered by others, then!]

Charlie replied: [We can't just jump out of the car and escape, right? The speed of the car is so fast so we will certainly die if we jumped out of the car. What's more, the man driving the car is carrying a pistol on his body. Even if we do not fall to our deaths, we will definitely die if he shoots us.]

Hugo replied to him: [But we won't have a chance once we get to their territory! When the time comes, we will even be at their mercy!]

Charlie then replied: [We are both poor, so they're definitely not trying to kill us for money. Perhaps they intend to trick us into going to work on the ship as free laborers, but in that case, our lives would not be at risk as long as we are obedient. If we escape now, we are likely to die in Mexico. Even though I say I can

be buried anywhere, I don't want to be buried in a sh*tty place like this!]

Hugo struggled when he saw Charlie's reply.

He knew that what Charlie had said was most probably right.
