I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week-Chapter 2225 - 2226: Tracking and Ambush
Chapter 2225: Chapter 2226: Tracking and Ambush
“Don’t worry; I’m keeping an eye on it. No one has come yet,” Zhang Chaoyue said,
“I’m just a few years younger than you, but my brothers are not young at all, you can be assured of that.”
“Go away. If you spout another nonsense, I’ll chop it off and turn it into a specimen.”
A chill crept up to the top of Zhang Chaoyue’s skull.
“That’s too much. Lin Bro flirts with you all the time, yet I don’t see you chopping him. You can’t be just bullying the weak and fearing the strong because Lin Bro is tough.”
“If you could grow up to be like the boss, I’d let you flirt all you want.”
...
“But you need to face reality. My sister-in-law’s figure is way better than yours; you don’t stand a chance. You might as well consider me.”
“Consider my ass; talk to me when your level surpasses mine.”
Yu Siying didn’t engage with Zhang Chaoyue anymore, holding her phone and starting to take pictures of their surroundings.
Even before joining the Central Guards Brigade, Yu Siying had been here many times, so coming here didn’t excite her at all.
But she still needed to take out her phone and pretend, to look more like a tourist and not give herself away.
As time went on, the crowd at the racecourse grew larger and larger, swarming like ants trapped in a tiny box.
The two sat in their chairs, chatting quietly while keeping an eye on the target.
They noticed that when most of the audience had arrived, the target still hadn’t shown up, and their seats remained empty.
“Do you think there’s any chance they’ve changed the transaction location?” Zhang Chaoyue asked.
“Anything’s possible until the show’s over,” Yu Siying responded,
“But if we don’t catch them and let the transaction succeed, the Brigade will probably move against Hongmen; China won’t tolerate such an organization.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk; the thought does give me a bit of a thrill.”
Soon, the time reached 8:30, and the race officially began.
But seats 14-36 and 14-37 remained unoccupied.
Even if there were people, they were just other tourists stopping by briefly before moving on, no one stayed for long, no signs of suspicion.
This made Yu Siying and Zhang Chaoyue increasingly uneasy.
If the other party didn’t show up, all their efforts would be in vain.
“It’s almost ten, and still, not a peep.” Zhang Chaoyue became vigilant. “Did these guys change their spot?”
“We’ve got half an hour more to go; let’s wait and see.”
Zhang Chaoyue looked around and spoke into a small walkie-talkie,
“Brother Qiang, how are things outside? We haven’t spotted any suspects.”
“Same here.”
“OK.”
The bustling atmosphere of the racecourse continued, and as the two observed their surroundings, they kept shouting along; if there were people hidden, they’d likely not be noticed.
“Someone’s coming!” Yu Siying said.
Zhang Chaoyue turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in sportswear sitting above 14-36, holding a black laptop bag in his hand.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
What was inside remained unknown.
“Don’t move; just let me watch, we don’t want to blow our cover,” Yu Siying whispered.
But she kept using her phone to take pictures, observing the situation at 14-36 with her peripheral vision.
Yu Siying noticed that the man’s demeanor greatly differed from other tourists; his focus didn’t seem to be on the horse race, his gaze remained forward, and his expression was calm, only occasionally glancing left and right.
Such behavior matched Yu Siying’s expectations.
Without any surprises, it seemed he was waiting for the person with whom he’d make the transaction.
However, a few minutes later, Yu Siying noticed the sports-attired man suddenly got up and left.
But she picked up on a detail,
Although he had gone, his laptop bag remained where it was.
And at that moment, Yu Siying saw a man in a white shirt approach seat 14-36, casually pick up the laptop bag from the ground, and depart composedly.
“Prepare to move in.”
At Yu Siying’s command, Zhang Chaoyue stood up, and they followed after him.
The horse race was in full swing, but people were coming and going.
The departure of the two didn’t draw attention from others.
“Brother Qiang, the target has appeared. How are things outside?” Zhang Chaoyue whispered.
“Everything looks normal outside. The backup should be waiting out there; it’s best to resolve the issue inside the venue to avoid complications for us.”
“Alright.”
Meanwhile, the two had caught up with their target, and Yu Siying said,
“That man in sportswear must be from Hongmen, and the one in the white shirt is their seller,” Yu Siying declared,
“I’ll follow the one up ahead; we’ll handle the one behind.”
“Roger that!”
They each locked onto their target and headed toward the outside of the venue.
Outside the racecourse, a black Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked, with Li Zhenquan and Zhou Guangyao sitting inside.
“Boss Zhou, I know you’re anxious to get this batch, but it’s necessary to wait a bit longer for safety.”
“That makes sense,” Zhou Guangyao said, not saying much more; the calm on his face was also feigned.
First, the Zhou family indeed needed this batch very much.
Secondly, this was Shianggang, Hongmen’s territory, and being here alone always felt somewhat less secure.
He hoped the transaction would be completed quickly.
Zhou Guangyao wasn’t very clear about today’s little drama, whether there was genuinely something suspicious, or if Hongmen was deliberately playing tricks.
If compared, the Zhou family didn’t have any advantage. Even if there was a betrayal, the Zhou family would have to accept their loss silently.
“Boss Zhou, you seem not to trust us. Doesn’t Hongmen on Shianggang Island have any credibility?”
“Boss Li, you take things too seriously,” Zhou Guangyao said with a gracious smile, “It’s just that this batch is very important to us; I don’t want any problems.”
“I understand, but rest assured, this is Shianggang, Hongmen’s territory. Here, my word is law,” Li Zhenquan stated.
Zhou Guangyao fell silent for a moment, his gaze fixed on the Happy Valley complex.
“If someone from the Central Guard did come, could your men hold them off?”
“Of course,” Li Zhenquan said confidently,
“We have a Class C expert in charge; his abilities are guaranteed, and they all carry weapons. No matter how tough the Central Guard people are, they can’t stop bullets.”
“You have to make sure none of them leaves here, or it’ll be tantamount to declaring war on the Central Guard.”
“Don’t worry, this is Shianggang; things work differently here,” Li Zhenquan said, smiling,
“If they dare mess with my plan, I have the guts to kill. Of course, I don’t think they’ll come. Otherwise, how did our previous transactions get completed? They are not omnipotent. Rest easy.”
