Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 473: before and after

Views:

After listening to the general task content, Bai Chen said incomprehensively:

"The company has a complete intelligence network in Primordial City, and there must be more than a team of us who can use it. Why should we hand over the matter of 'Garibaldi' to us?"

In comparison, those in the intelligence system were more familiar with Garibaldi and had a better understanding of the situation.

"Because we are amazing!" Shang Jianyao responded immediately.

Long Yuehong was immediately a little ashamed, because he knew that Shang Jianyao was just talking nonsense, but he could only think of such a reason for a while.

Jiang Baimian said:

"If we fail, we only lose one of our teams and Garibaldi. If the others fail, the entire intelligence network may be taken down."

"..." Although Long Yuehong was reluctant to admit it, she still felt that the team leader's words made some sense.

It's just that this reasoning is too cold and ruthless, right

Seeing his reaction, Jiang Baimian chuckled lightly:

"Okay, just kidding, if 'Garibaldi' is caught, the company's intelligence network in Prime City will definitely be hit hard. If I were the minister, I must have ordered those who met 'Garibaldi' Emergency evacuation of the first city, others disconnected with 'Garibaldi', so that the worst result is not too bad.

"The company asked us to save 'Garibaldi' based on two considerations:

"One, the situation in the first city is tense now, the company's intelligence personnel here should be quiet and not move, and the primary goal is to reduce the risk of exposure, so as not to be affected, and we are in the 'hand of order' in the eyes of the 'first city' intelligence system, Having escaped from the city, no one will stare at him, and it is more convenient to move.

"Second, our strength is really strong..."

At the end, Jiang Baimian also laughed.

Obviously, the second point is just a reason she casually pulls out, for Yinghe Shang Jianyao's words just now.

Of course, "Panga" will definitely consider this factor when assigning tasks, but the weight is not large. After all, it does not seem to be too difficult to deal with "Garibaldi".

Bai Chen nodded, no more doubts.

Jiang Baimian took advantage of the situation to translate the content of the telegram. This is mainly the introduction of the old K, which is quite simple.

"Old K, whose real name is Kelenza, is an import and export businessman. He has connections with several elders and nobles, and has dealt with several major gangs. Among them, the gang organization 'Red Army' is involved in the import and export business. , and old K are incompatible..." Jiang Baimian repeated in a general tone.

"It doesn't sound easy." Long Yuehong said.

"Why did 'Garibaldi' become enemies with him and was shot by him?" Bai Chen asked a new question.

Jiang Baimian shook his head:

"It didn't say on the telegram."

"I think it's because of love and hate." Shang Jianyao raised his hand and touched his chin.

Jiang Baimian was about to say that there was a possibility, but Shang Jianyao had already taken care of himself and added:

"Old K fell in love with 'Garibaldi', 'Garibaldi' moved away and abandoned him..."

... Long Yuehong was so full of words that he didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only sneer:

"If you don't get it together, you will destroy it?"

"There are many such people, you have to be careful." Shang Jianyao nodded sincerely.

Jiang Baimian cleared his throat and said:

"This is not the point, what we need to do now is to collect more information about the old K, observe his residence, where Garibaldi is hiding, and then formulate a practical plan.

"Speaking of which, the place where Old K lives is quite close to the good friend he feeds."

This refers to Terence, the second boss of the "Black Shirt Party".

The place where Old K lived was only three blocks away from the home of the gang leader, and it was closer to the Golden Apple District.

Having said this, Jiang Baimian laughed at himself:

"The older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous. When we first arrived in the first city, we all dared to visit Terrence directly and try to 'convince' him. We are not afraid of accidents. But now, we don't have a full understanding and there is no perfect plan. , let 'Garibaldi' starve, and he won't starve to death for a while."

"That's not the same." Bai Chen responded calmly, "At that time, we had a certain understanding of Terence through the gang members of the 'Wolf Den', and the key to the action plan was to take the lead, as long as Terence was not a 'mind' Awakened at the corridor' level, or with the ability and price to restrain business, we can all successfully make 'friends'."

As for now, the fact that the "Old Tune Group" is wanted makes it impossible for them to visit the old K directly and start a dialogue.

This loses the best environment for using the ability of business to see Yao.

Jiang Baimian nodded lightly and said:

"In short, this time we have to move forward step by step, not reckless.

"Well, the fact that old K and a large number of nobles are friendly is a great hidden danger, and it may bring accidents at any time."

After a little rest, the "Old Tune Team" took advantage of the rainy night to drive to the Red Giant Wolf area. They plan to make a preliminary observation of Old K and his residence tonight. At the same time, they plan to prepare a few additional safe houses. .

At this time, the rain had dropped a lot, and it was falling sparsely, and the street lamps on the street were dyed with halos, creating a kind of dreamy color in the dark night.

The disguised "Old Tune Team" either went directly to the door, or through "friends", and completed the construction of three new safe houses.

Then, they came to Masgar Street, where Old K lived.

Looking at the house No. 54 from a distance, Jiang Baimian leaned back on the seat and said thoughtfully:

"It's only what time, all the curtains are drawn..."

She was referring to all the places with curtains, like the kitchen, that still had light shining through.

"Not normal." Bai Chen expressed his opinion.

It's just after nine o'clock now. For the heavy-duty workers in the Green Olive District, it's time to rest, but for the people with a lot of assets in the Red Giant Wolf District, the night has just begun.

And the old K is obviously one of them.

Under such a premise, the curtains of the living room facing the street were pulled up and covered tightly, which seemed very problematic.

"Maybe they want to perform a shadow puppet show." Shang Jianyao looked at the black shadows that occasionally appeared on the curtains, and said with admiration.

No one paid him any attention.

Jiang Baimian pondered for a few seconds:

"We monitor the front door and the back door separately."

It didn't take long for Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao to find a suitable monitoring point on the top of an apartment building two streets away. Bai Chen and Long Yuehong also drove to a place where they could observe the back door area and have a sufficient distance.

Monitoring is very boring most of the time. Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao have long adapted to this kind of life and have no impatience.

The only thing that annoyed them was that the rain had not stopped yet, and the wind on the roof was strong, and their bodies would inevitably be drenched.

As time passed by, Jiang Baimian saw the front door of the old K's house open, and a few people came out.

One of them was wide and thick, like a wall, and it was the sheriff Wall who was known to the "Old Tune Group".

One of the few people who sent Wall out, wearing a white shirt and a black vest, his hair was neatly combed, and a few silver threads were faintly visible.

His nasolabial folds have sagged slightly, his brows are slightly wrinkled, and his eyes are dark blue, which is exactly the target of the "Old Tune Team"'s operation, old K Corenza.

Old K showed a slight smile and took Wall to the car with a few of his subordinates.

"Wall is really looking for the 'Garibaldi' line, and he has already found Old K..." Jiang Baimian muttered in a low voice, "Fortunately, we didn't rush to the door."

She moved her gaze, noting the characteristics of Wall's police car.

In this way, you can judge the approximate location of the other party by observing the vehicle, and give early warning.

"Actually, we should have made friends with Sheriff Wall long ago." Shang Jianyao expressed his regret.

This time, the other side.

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong noticed that a dark black car turned from another street and parked at the back door of Old K's house.

The hidden back door opened quickly, and it was obvious that someone had been waiting there.

A servant came out. He held a large dark umbrella and opened the door of the black car.

A person got out of the car, got directly under the umbrella, buried his head, and hurried to the back door.

In the dark night, in the hazy rain, and in the lack of light, neither Long Yuehong nor Bai Chen could see who it was.

Only when the person was about to disappear from their sight did they notice that it seemed to be a woman.
