Chapter 2750: Chapter 2751: Plot within a Plot, Puzzle within a Puzzle
Meanwhile, three box trucks were speeding down the road, destination unknown.
Lin Yi, Xiao Bing, Luo Qi, Zhao Yunhu, and Shao Jianfeng were sitting inside the middle box truck, eating while looking at a map.
Buzz buzz buzzâ
The communicator crackled with static.
âTeam Leader Lin, their people have been trailing us, getting closer. I suspect theyâre about to make a move.â
The speaker was the driver, someone with years of special operations experience. Tracking and counter-surveillance were childâs play for them.
âHow far are we from the designated point? How many more minutes?â asked Lin Yi.
âAbout three minutes.â
âKeep steady, donât panic, drive slowly and donât give anything away. Stick to the plan and everything will be fine.â
âUnderstood!â
The vehicle continued to move smoothly. Inside the truck was dimly lit, with a group sitting silently in the center, save for the occasional sound of chewing.
âWhyâs everyone so quiet? Feeling tense?â Luo Qi quipped.
âTense my ass, Iâm dying of excitement,â Zhao Yunhu replied.
âOnce on a double assignment, it wasnât this thrilling. These bastards need a lesson today.â
âLook at your sorry lot,â Luo Qi teased.
âIf youâre tough, be like Lin Bro and have two kids. Whatâs exciting about dual assignments? Moneyâs all that matters.â
âWhoa whoa whoa, donât chat like that, donât drag innocent civilians in,â Lin Yi added.
âHahaâŠâ
At that moment, the group noticed the vehicle slowing down, and instantly composed their expressions.
Buzz buzz buzzâ
Soon, after the vehicle came to a stop, a voice came through the communicator.
âTeam Leader Lin, weâve reached the designated point.â
âGood.â
Lin Yi responded briskly and turned to the others.
âGet ready for action.â
Zhao Yunhu stood up and reached for a metal handle on the box floor, lifting it.
Revealing a hole over half a meter in diameter!
And beneath it was the concrete road surface.
On the concrete road, there was a manhole cover, and just at this moment, it was pushed open, revealing a human head inside.
âTeam Leader Lin, everythingâs ready. Hurry down.â
âMove out!â
Lin Yi commanded, but none of the group moved, instead staring at him wide-eyed.
âWhat are you all standing around for? Hurry down, donât waste time.â
âWeâre afraid you might leave us and run off again, so you go first. Weâll follow,â Xiao Bing advised.
âAt a time like this? Why would I leave? Get down!â Lin Yi said, half-laughing, half-crying.
âNo way, youâve got too many schemes, we canât trust you.â
With that, Xiao Bing glanced at the others.
âTake action.â
Zhao Yunhu and Shao Jianfeng acted decisively, grabbed Lin Yi, and threw him down.
âDamn it!â
Before Lin Yi could react, he was promptly tossed down.
The others wasted no time and jumped down after him.
Shao Jianfeng, who was last down, made sure to secure the cover, leaving no trace.
At that moment, the spot where the vehicle had stopped was a narrow road.
When a box truck drove in, there was barely any gap on either side.
Normal people wouldnât walk through here, creating an opportunity for Lin Yi and his team.
The front and back trucks blocked the entrance and exit, turning the area into a closed-off zone. No one could detect that they exited through the sewer.
Meanwhile, Wrightâs vehicle had already stopped not far away, cautiously observing the surroundings.
He noticed that the three trucks he had been tailing had driven onto a narrow road.
And then they stopped.
Instinctively, Wright sensed something was amiss.
âWhatâs this place?â
âSeems like a warehouse,â his assistant replied.
After pondering for a few seconds, Wrightâs expression grew sharp.
âGet moving!â
With his order, all the people from the vehicle got out, a group of more than twenty, armed, decisively charging ahead!
âDonât move!â
Upon entering the narrow road, Wright noticed a food factory worker preparing to unlock something.
Inside the warehouse were already packed foods, ready to be loaded onto vehicles.
Wright breathed a sigh of relief.
Feeling more relaxed.
He was now certain that the person he needed to capture was inside one of the trucks.
The box truckâs door hadnât been opened yet, meaning they were still inside, ready for him to catch them all in one go.
âWhat are you doing?â
The worker was startled, quickly raising his hands.
âStep away from the vehicle.â
Wright said, brandishing his gun, expression fierce.
He was grateful to have arrived at this time.
If the box truck doors had been opened, the people inside would surely have fled, making it harder to capture them.
The warehouse worker complied, not daring to argue with the armed men, retreating step by step.
âKeep an eye on the other trucks, weâll search them one by one!â
âYes!â
After that, the group, twenty-plus in number, controlled all the vehicles, ready for individual inspections.
âEveryone get out!â
With Wrightâs order, the drivers were driven out of the trucks, standing nonchalantly where they were.
As Wright examined the people getting off the trucks, he scrutinized them carefully but didnât find the ones he was supposed to catch.
Yet Wright remained calm, sending people to check inside the trucks, finding no one hidden.
âOpen the box truckâs door.â
âWhat are you trying to do?â a short-haired driver stepped forward, âThese are special vehicles, donât compare us to private cars.â
âWe have search authorization. Even if youâre special vehicles, you are subject to investigation!â
As he spoke, Wright presented his authorization documents.
The short-haired driver said no more, ready to open the door.
Wrightâs mouth curled into a smile, internally mocking, âA bunch of ignorant fools, thinking they can stop me this way?â
Rattleâ
The short-haired driver fiddled with the door, opening the box truckâs door.
But inside was empty. There was nothing at all.
âOpen the second truck!â
Under Wrightâs command, the second truckâs door was also opened.
Similarly, there was no one inside, just tattered blankets.
At this point, all eyes turned to the third truck.
âCome with me!â
Wrightâs confidence surged, becoming even more cautious.
Based on his past experiences, people must be hiding inside the last truck!
To prevent any accidents, Wright called everyone over and surrounded the third truck tightly.
Then ordered the driver, to open the door.
The driver didnât hesitate, opened the box truck door as Wright had directed.
But to their great disappointment, inside was still empty.
Wrightâs face immediately darkened.
âDamn it, where did they go!â
