Chapter 3976 - 3964: Take Him Out
Chapter 3976: Chapter 3964: Take Him Out
Cui Shengguo frowned, a bad feeling creeping up on him.
"One more thing, those Journalists have already checked into the Li family’s hotel, and there are people protecting them. This might have something to do with Lee Yongjin as well."
"Lee Yongjin actually got involved too? Could she be the one orchestrating this?"
"For now we still can’t read Lee Yongjin’s intentions, but the fact that she’s helping those Journalists from Yan Country means this is definitely not simple. We need to be on guard."
Cui Shengguo sat in the chair, silent for a long time.
"Who’s leading these Journalists? Where are they all from?"
"It’s a man, from the Zhonghai TV station in Yan Country."
"This guy can really fight?" Cui Shengguo raised a brow.
"Yeah. We’ll have to bring in some professionals for this."
"Alright, I get it. You head back first."
Li Xueli turned and walked out, and Cui Shengguo picked up his phone.
"Come over."
After that brief line, Cui Shengguo hung up.
About half an hour later, the office door was pushed open, and a man in camo pants and a black vest walked in from outside.
The man had a crew cut and a square face, with a long scar running down his arm.
Once inside, he stood respectfully in front of Cui Shengguo.
"Leader."
The man’s name was Song Zhongtian, captain of the Angry Sea Organization.
"Zhao Renming has disappeared. There’s still no news. I feel like something’s off in-country—our intel on getting the Sheepskin Scroll might have leaked."
"After all this time, that’s definitely possible."
Song Zhongtian had known about Zhao Renming’s disappearance for a while, and he’d already guessed this might be the case.
"It’s very likely other organizations have rushed over. Do we need to assemble and join the defense mission?"
"Not for now. This isn’t the island; the armed units can handle it." Cui Shengguo said:
"Send some people, ramp up the search, and find Zhao Renming as soon as possible. Second, Song Yaguo and Su Zhuihui may also run into danger, so you need to keep an eye on that too."
"Understood. I’ll arrange people to take care of it."
"Remember, if you spot operatives from other organizations, don’t make a move. Notify the armed units and have them carry out the arrests."
"Got it."
"There’s one more thing I’m assigning to you." Cui Shengguo said:
"Go take someone out. He’s a Journalist from Yan Country. For the specific intel, go to Li Xueli. Make it clean."
"Understood."
...
Toward dusk, Lin Yi and the others were all stationed at the entrance of the Wuzhe Mountain Laboratory.
Lin Yi, Luo Qi, Xiao Bing, and Shao Jianfeng split into three teams, watching the situation inside from different angles.
While they waited, Lin Yi kept scanning the place. Even though it was almost quitting time, the work hours in a place like this weren’t fixed—they could leave at any time.
Even living on-site wouldn’t be anything unusual.
When they’d be able to catch them all depended on their luck.
"Boss, four cars are heading toward the Wuzhe Mountain Laboratory." Shao Jianfeng said over the radio.
"Okay, got it."
After replying, Lin Yi looked into the distance and quickly spotted four black sedans coming in from not far away.
The models were identical, and the people inside were obviously not ordinary.
He fixed his gaze on the four cars, watching as they drove into the lab compound.
Once the cars parked, three people got out of each one, all in black suits, looking like bodyguard types.
"Lin Bro, look at their gait—among them are four people who, like us, very likely have mastered the technique of exerting power from the dantian. They move differently from the others.
"Those four are the drivers. Barring surprises, they’re probably from the Angry Sea Organization."
In operations like this, the driver’s position is crucial—whether they can detect danger in advance, whether they can get the target out safely, they play a decisive role.
Placing members of the Angry Sea Organization in that position is perfectly logical.
And whoever assigned this task must be an old hand.
"Keep a close eye on these people. They’re most likely here to pick up Song Yaguo and Su Zhuihui."
"Got it."
Just as Lin Yi anticipated, they soon saw Song Yaguo and Su Zhuihui come out under the escort of those men.
"Luo Qi stays here and keeps watching. Xiao Bing, Jianfeng, get ready to move."
"Yes!"
After they picked up the targets, the four cars left one after another, while Lin Yi and Xiao Bing’s car pulled out first.
Since there was only one road, once they left, the others had to follow the same route. All Lin Yi had to do was slow down and let them overtake, and he could latch on without drawing attention.
They tailed them all the way. About forty minutes later, Lin Yi saw Song Yaguo return home.
And around his house, there were plenty of guards deployed, all hidden.
If they tried to grab Song Yaguo now, they’d definitely get shredded by concentrated fire.
"Boss, Su Zhuihui is home. There are lots of covert posts around her place; the security measures are extremely tight." Shao Jianfeng said over the radio.
"Same situation on my side. Looks like grabbing Zhao Renming already spooked them. Now it’s a matter of seeing who loses their patience first."
After that reply, Lin Yi set the radio down and focused on the movements in the courtyard.
Judging from what he could see, if it wasn’t absolutely necessary, Song Yaguo and Su Zhuihui weren’t going to step outside.
Have to admit, Jinshan Group’s reaction had been very fast.
Buzz buzz buzz——
Just then, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was Liu Hong calling.
"How’s your situation over there?"
"Deadlocked." Lin Yi said:
"Jinshan Group and the Angry Sea Organization have leveraged their home turf advantage to build a highly comprehensive security net. It’s not just us—even people from other organizations can hardly make a move now."
"Don’t act rashly at a time like this. If you expose yourselves, you’ll be the one they focus fire on."
"I know. Right now we’re just watching, seeing if we can find an opening, but the chances aren’t great."
"Have you thought of any countermeasures?"
"I have, but they’re a bit too loud."
"Let’s hear it."
Over the next few minutes, Lin Yi laid out his idea and plan to Liu Hong.
After listening, the latter stayed silent for a long time.
"If we do it that way, yeah, the impact will be pretty big."
"That’s why I want to wait a bit longer. Maybe an opportunity will show up. If it’s not absolutely necessary, we won’t use that method."
"Alright. Keep watching over there. I’ll go talk to the old man. If something sudden happens, you make the call—you don’t need my approval."
"Okay."
After hanging up on Liu Hong, Lin Yi mulled over other ways to break the stalemate, but just then, his phone rang again.
It was Yue Sijing calling, and he answered without thinking.
"You’re their supervisor, right?"
