Wei Jie
Chapter 1268 Flickering Lights
Kong ZhengHui and the others waited patiently in the car. After about half an hour, Guo Zhengdao walked out of the teahouse.
Da Liang, who was in charge of surveillance, hurriedly whispered, "Bro, he's out!"
Kong ZhengHui looked up and out of the window, seeing Guo Zhengdao standing in front of the teahouse, looking around.
Soon, he walked towards the black car from before and then drove away.
Kong ZhengHui immediately turned his head and asked, "Did you take pictures?"
"Yes, I've been recording the whole time." Da Liang pointed to a young man beside him.
The young man was holding a very professional camera, its lens aimed at the teahouse, recording not only photos, but also footage of Guo Zhengdao entering and leaving.
"That's good." Kong ZhengHui nodded.
Da Liang watched Guo Zhengdao's car drive away, and hurriedly asked, "Bro, should we follow him? I'll have San’er keep an eye on him."
"No need." Kong ZhengHui waved his hand, "You can't keep up with him in the Dragon City. He's with the Quan Tong Bureau."
"That's true." Da Liang had to give up his idea.
Five or six minutes later, Zhang Yuan also walked out of the teahouse. He also observed the surroundings, then got into the somewhat dilapidated car, ready to leave.
This time, Kong ZhengHui didn't hesitate. He waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow.
…
At the same time, inside the black car, Guo Zhengdao was driving and took out his cell phone to make a call.
"Dudu…"
The phone rang twice before being answered, and Gu Baishun's voice came out, "Hello?"
Guo Zhengdao lowered his voice and said, "Director Gu, I've started doing it."
"..." Gu Baishun was silent for a while, then slowly replied, "Well... let's talk when you get back."
"Okay."
Guo Zhengdao hung up the phone and concentrated on driving.
…
About half an hour later, the small town below the Red Mountain Temple.
Zhang Yuan's car circled around and returned to the small town, slowly parking in front of the residential building from before.
Kong ZhengHui and the others followed all the way, constantly taking turns and even changing cars when they had the chance, not daring to be careless.
Soon, Zhang Yuan got out of the car, but didn't rush upstairs. Instead, he stood downstairs, lit a cigarette, and cautiously looked around as he smoked.
Kong ZhengHui parked the car in the distance, and instructed in a steady voice, "Tell the brothers in the back cars not to come over yet. Didn't we leave two brothers here before? Let them keep an eye on Zhang Yuan and don't let him run."
"Okay!"
Da Liang took the walkie-talkie and instructed the brothers in the other cars.
The two young men who had been left nearby were now sitting in a small restaurant across the street, eating. While pretending to chat, they were secretly watching Zhang Yuan.
Kong ZhengHui's car was parked at the street corner in the distance, making it difficult to see the situation in the residential building. They could only wait nervously for news.
Fortunately, Zhang Yuan didn't stay downstairs for too long. After observing for a while, he threw away the cigarette butt and turned to enter the residential building.
One of the young men lowered his voice and said into the microphone he was wearing, "Brother Hui, he's gone upstairs."
In the car at the street corner, Kong ZhengHui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the report. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Keep watching him and don't alert him."
"Understood."
After disconnecting the communication, Kong ZhengHui didn't rush to drive the car over, fearing that Zhang Yuan would continue to observe from the window upstairs.
During the previous tracking, Kong ZhengHui's mind had been constantly working, thinking about how to avoid Zhang Yuan's reconnaissance. The long-term high concentration of mental energy caused a slight stinging pain in his brain, making him rub his temples.
Da Liang noticed his tired look and couldn't help but ask, "Bro, shall we go up?"
"Not yet, wait a little longer." Kong ZhengHui waved his hand, deciding to play it safe.
Da Liang nodded helplessly, "Alright."
For these men, they were already used to obeying Kong ZhengHui's orders.
Another two hours passed.
By this time, it was already very dark, the streetlights were on, and some of the shops on both sides had closed.
Fortunately, the restaurant was still open, and the two young men stayed inside, afraid to leave, continuing to watch the residential building.
It was very quiet all around, with few pedestrians and occasional cars passing by on the road.
Some of the residents' lights in the residential building were also turned off, preparing to rest, with only a few still lit.
Inside the car, everyone was getting impatient, and could only smoke one cigarette after another.
Kong ZhengHui sat steadily in the car, squinting his eyes, as if thinking about something.
Da Liang looked at the restless brothers beside him and couldn't help but urge, "Bro, it's about time, let's go up. What are you waiting for?"
Kong ZhengHui opened his eyes slightly, glanced at him and said, "I want to wait and see if he'll meet anyone else."
Da Liang curled his lips, "Bro, I really think you smart people always like to overcomplicate things. With his identity, he's already met Guo Zhengdao, and that's probably it… Is he going to meet Gu Baishun or something?"
Kong ZhengHui sat there, frowning, seemingly still hesitating about something.
Seeing this, Da Liang persuaded again, "Bro! I might think about things more directly, but in my opinion, the Dragon City line is already pretty clear. He came all this way just to meet Guo Zhengdao. Now that he's met him, he could leave at any time. Once he pulls out, he'll definitely have accomplices waiting to pick him up on the outside. By then, it'll be even harder for us to make a move."
Kong ZhengHui glanced at everyone in the car, and saw that everyone's eyes were bloodshot from staying up. After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but pat Da Liang on the shoulder, "You're right, I was getting a bit too caught up in it. Alright, let's not wait any longer. Tell all the brothers to prepare for action."
Da Liang nodded readily, "Okay!"
"And!" Kong ZhengHui hurriedly added, "Be careful. There might be accomplices in the building. And, we absolutely can't kill Zhang Yuan. We have to capture him alive!"
"Don't worry, Bro. I'm good at this kind of thing."
Da Liang's spirits lifted, and he picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered, "Brothers, wake up! Grab your weapons, let's get to work!"
Inside the car, the young men, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately pulled up their masks, covering their faces. At the same time, some brothers pulled waterproof bags from the back of the car, took out the guns inside, and quickly distributed them to everyone.
Soon, three vans simultaneously stopped in front of the residential building.
With a crash, the car doors were pulled open at the same time, and a dozen masked young men, holding Remington shotguns, quickly walked into the building.
Just then, the lights on a window on one of the upper floors flickered a few times.
"Bang!"
"Crash!"
Immediately afterwards, the sound of glass breaking suddenly came from above.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw that a window on one of the upper floors had been smashed, and a chair was falling quickly from the sky.
"Clang!"
The chair hit the ground and shattered into pieces.
A bad feeling suddenly rose in Kong ZhengHui's heart, and he hurriedly urged, "Something's up, get upstairs!"
