Chapter 1389: Operation Night
The most important operation that night was to capture Brother Ding, so Captain Hao had to dispatch more personnel to Shu City. Jiang Yao was a little nervous. “Okay. You won’t be with Brother Jing tonight, right?”
Lu Xingzhi confessed. “I’m here. But there won’t be any danger. Don’t worry.”
Jiang Yao pondered for a moment and understood the reason. Lu Xingzhi would definitely partic.i.p.ate in that night’s operation, and he probably had to bring his own people too.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yao asked Moe to go to Lu Xingzhi. She wanted him to follow Lu Xingzhi during the operation. She also requested Big Ke and Ah Lu to help Lu Xingzhi discreetly.
As night fell, Jiang Yao, who could not partic.i.p.ate in the operation, began to feel uneasy.
Sister Wen took her people out. It was not even dinner time yet, and Lu Xingzhi had gone out with other people. Jiang Yao did not know the specific arrangements, so she did not dare act rashly.
It was safe to stay in the hotel, but for Jiang Yao, the time she had to wait was also torturous.
The sun slowly set as if it was carrying a heavy burden. The cold moon moved like an old man in his twilight years.
As she looked down from the window, she could hear the constant clanking of bicycles. Occasionally, there was the sound of private cars, which were rarely seen in Shu City. The night in Shu City slowly unfolded.
The city was still quiet. The people pa.s.sing by looked the same as usual as if nothing had changed.
It was not until ten o’clock that Jiang Yao gradually realized that the pa.s.sersby looked serious. After listening carefully to their low voices and words, she realized that they told everyone not to pa.s.s by the iron factory area because it was very chaotic. There were gangsters with knives and guns fighting!
The iron factory on South Street?
Jiang Yao pursed her lips and fell into deep thought. South Street was next to the Shahe River in Shu City. There was a row of factories there, and one of them was an iron factory. That iron factory belonged to Brother Ding, but it did not really produce iron if she remembered correctly. It seemed like they were making something else.
That iron factory belonged to Brother Ding. It should be pretty easy for Sister Wen to find a way to trick Brother Ding there. She could easily find some troublemakers to lure Brother Ding there.
Sister Wen was smart and had been by Brother Ding’s side for so long, so it was even easier for her to control a factory.
Even though she knew the location, Jiang Yao had no intention of going there.
Lu Xingzhi wanted her to wait in her room, so she should stay there and not burden him with worries.
As time pa.s.sed, Jiang Yao held her phone tightly and waited for the news. As soon as the matter was over, Lu Xingzhi would tell her immediately.
Ten minutes had pa.s.sed.
Another twenty minutes had pa.s.sed.
Jiang Yao did not know how to describe the stress that she felt.
When she received a new message on her phone, she immediately took it out and opened it. She lowered her head to read it.
[Mission accomplished. The operation has ended. I’ll pick you up later. Brother Ding has been shot and needs surgery.]
[Okay, I got it. I’ll prepare for it.]
After Jiang Yao replied to the text message, she realized that her legs were trembling; it was probably because she had been standing for the whole afternoon.
