4338 The Other Side 307

Hurricane Group! This was a name that controlled a large part of the structure underlying the world. Now, gradually, the building was completely revealed before him…

After the plane landed, it went through a series of checks.

At the Hurricane Group, almost all private planes returning from outings, no matter who was returning, must be subjected to a series of comprehensive checks after landing. Even Gong Jie was no exception. This was to ensure that no one had tampered with the plane.

This happened one time when Gong Jie returned from South Africa. When the checks were done, it was found that many high-tech trackers had been secretly planted in his private jet. These tracking devices were among the top dark technologies in the world. Even the Pentagon in the M Nation might not have been able to detect them. If not for the meticulous staff checking the aircraft, they probably would not have been able to find these tracking devices.

Later on, this plane almost had to be scrapped because no one could determine if the tracking devices had been completely removed from the plane's body. In addition, no one knew when they had been planted.

Since then, the landing checks had become stricter.

This landing inspection took more than half an hour.

As the actor carried Natalia off the plane, he had to go through repeated screenings. It was almost as if the security guards were going to lay him flat on the ground, strip him naked and turn him inside out.

Was there a need for such strict screening?! Why did he have to go through such harsh inspection to land on the island?! He felt as though he was an internationally wanted criminal! Till now, the actor had lingering fears.

The sheer scale of the hoo-ha had also frightened Natalia. If Gong Jie hadn't stopped it, she would have had to go through iris and blood tests.

When Hua Jin was finally reunited with Gong Jie after the screening exercise, he nervously remarked, "You're probably the only person I know who has to go through a physical coming home."

Gong Jie, however, was used to it. "This series of screenings applies to everyone with very few exceptions."

"Why?" Suspicious, Hua Jin asked, "Why is such meticulous screening required, to come to this island?"

"Apart from this…" Gong Jie shot him a look and continued, "you'll be wearing a monitor while you're on the island. If you break into a forbidden zone at the Hurricane Group, you'll set off alarms all over the island. All the zones will be fingerprint inspected before you leave. If you had been where you were not supposed to go, you'll never get to leave."

Hua Jin felt a chill run down his spine. "It's just a matter of coming home for you. Do you need so many complicated procedures? Don't you feel tired?"

Gong Jie gave a cool smile. "That's why I don't like going home."

The actor winced, somehow feeling sorry for the man. At least he didn't have to go through all this scrutiny going home. It was… so lacking a sense of affection. He felt a sense of being tightly bound, but there was no warmth at all.

Now, as he looked back at the island shrouded in mist, he felt something else. Suddenly, the magnificent castle felt more like a cage than a home.

Gong Jie made a call to Mu Yazhe. To his surprise, Yun Shishi picked up the call. "Xiao Jie…"
