Xu Weiwei was stubborn. Once she set her mind on something, she was determined to see it through.
Even after arguing with the director and being suspended, she decided to secretly investigate the clues.
So, the entire afternoon, Ye Cangtian watched this girl buying listening devices and some pinhole cameras in the electronics market.
This made Ye Cangtian speechless. Was she planning a wiretapping operation?
Was this girl going to be an undercover agent?
Time flew by, and night arrived.
At this hour, entertainment venues began to liven up, especially those clustered together.
During the day, there were hardly any people, but at night, it became the busiest street in the city.
Bars, KTVs, clubs, internet cafes, and more. This place was a melting pot of all sorts of people and a common spot for trouble.
Xu Weiwei sat in the car, rolling down the window to look at a venue called 'Zunjue KTV'.
"This KTV is currently Han Tianba's territory. The person in charge here is called A Tai, a trusted subordinate of Ba Tianhu, specializing in shady dealings and collecting money."
"I found a clue a couple of days ago. Tonight, he will represent Ba Tianhu here to conduct a transaction with a smuggler from Southeast Asia, involving a massive sum of money."
In fact, this was just one of the crimes Ba Tianhu was involved in. Xu Weiwei had collected too much information about Ba Tianhu's heinous deeds during this period.
It not only included his actions in the underworld six years ago but also everything that had happened since his return to Yangzhou recently.
However, despite having accusations, they lacked sufficient evidence to bring him to justice, which was why the police had been unable to do anything about him before. Sudan Novel Network.
Hearing Xu Weiwei's self-muttered analysis, Ye Cangtian nodded. Ba Tianhu was indeed a brutal individual.
He had witnessed it firsthand at the seaside tea house that day. He wouldn't even blink an eye when killing someone. Such a person was cruel and had committed all sorts of evil.
He glanced at the eager Xu Weiwei and said helplessly, "Even if you manage to collect criminal evidence against this A Tai, it won't have much impact on Ba Tianhu!"
"No, A Tai is different from other underlings. He was Ba Tianhu's subordinate six years ago, and after Ba Tianhu returned, he handed over many affairs to him."
"So, as long as we can get criminal evidence against A Tai and arrest him, there's hope of getting more clues from him, and even obtaining evidence that could be fatal to Ba Tianhu," Xu Weiwei said seriously.
It was a shame that she was currently suspended and did not have the authority to mobilize police forces. Otherwise, she could have arrested A Tai tonight during the transaction.
"This is very dangerous!"
Ye Cangtian pondered for a long time, then shook his head. He admitted that Xu Weiwei's analysis was good. If it were a normal underworld organization, this approach would be fine.
But was Ba Tianhu a normal underworld figure?
Moreover, Ye Cangtian suspected that there was someone behind Ba Tianhu. Perhaps he was just a pawn.
Of course, this was just his suspicion.
However, he did not advise Xu Weiwei to venture into the tiger's den. After all, Ba Tianhu and his men were cruel. If they discovered her, Xu Weiwei would be in grave danger.
"In our line of work, there's always danger! Don't worry, I'm still a police officer. Even if they find out, they won't do anything to me!"
Xu Weiwei tucked the miniature devices into her clothes, opened the car door, and turned back to Ye Cangtian, saying, "You don't need to go. Wait for me in the car!"
Watching her walk towards Zunjue KTV alone after saying that, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but sigh.
Did you really think that because you're a police officer, they wouldn't do anything to you? You're underestimating how ruthless these guys are.
He also got out of the car, lit a cigarette, and slowly walked up.
Ye Cangtian was genuinely worried that something might happen to her and couldn't rest assured.
...
Zunjue KTV was the largest entertainment venue on the bar street. It was a KTV that combined a bar and karaoke.
The first floor was the bar, and the second floor had KTV rooms.
As soon as he entered the bar area on the first floor, the deafening, rhythmic, and explosive music made his ears ring.
Xu Weiwei was indeed there to go undercover, so she was currently blending in with the crowd in the bar hall on the first floor, not attracting anyone's attention.
This entertainment venue belonged to Han Tianba, so his men were all around, especially since a secret transaction was about to take place tonight.
She was currently mingling with the crowd. Although she wasn't dancing, with so many people, no one paid much attention to her.
Of course, there was one person paying attention to her.
Ye Cangtian was in a corner booth about ten meters away. He ordered two bottles of beer and leaned back comfortably on the sofa, observing Xu Weiwei's situation while also glancing at the graceful figures of the various young ladies around him.
If there was one place with the most beautiful women, it would naturally be nightclubs. The girls who came here to party were all meticulously dressed and quite confident in themselves.
"Handsome, are you alone?"
Seeing Ye Cangtian sitting alone in a booth drinking, a scantily clad and well-figured lady walked over.
She smiled and approached him, asking, "Can I sit here?"
Ye Cangtian sized her up and nodded.
As soon as the woman sat down, she placed a hand on his thigh and whispered into his ear, "Handsome, I'm doing this part-time. Want to try?"
Ye Cangtian was taken aback. So direct?
"Here?"
"Yes, the restroom is fine. Six hundred per session! Eight hundred if we go out!" the lady explained ambiguously to Ye Cangtian.
She smelled fragrant and kept rubbing against him. Any ordinary man would likely lose control.
However, Ye Cangtian had seen many such women. Moreover, although her face was pretty and her figure was good, she was at most an eight.
She was more than a notch below the women he had seen.
But Ye Cangtian, bored, smiled playfully and asked, "Can it be for free?"
"..."
The lady's smile stiffened for a moment, then she chuckled charmingly, "Big brother, you're such a joker."
"I'm not joking. Big brother never pays to pick up girls!"
"If you don't pay, what are you talking about? Do you think I have nothing better to do?" the lady said, standing up immediately, cursing under her breath, and walking away.
Ye Cangtian smiled and didn't get angry. He continued smoking, scanning the crowd.
Suddenly, he froze. Where was Xu Weiwei?
Just in the time it took him to chat with that lady, Xu Weiwei had disappeared.
At the same time!
Xu Weiwei had left the bar hall on the first floor and gone upstairs via the stairs.
Because her target had appeared!
Just now, A Tai, Ba Tianhu's trusted subordinate, had returned from outside with a few lackeys and went directly to the second floor.
More importantly, two of the lackeys were carrying suitcases. Xu Weiwei didn't know what was inside, but it was likely cash.
After all, they were scheduled to conduct a secret transaction with that smuggler tonight.
