Chapter 1201 Du Jingtong Vs. Gu Ning
SWAT A realized he was right after reading the news about Gu Ning."Hey, how can you grab the phone away. Fine, I'll check it myself," SWAT C said and took out his phone at once.
Several other SWATs did the same thing.
When they found out what Gu Ning had done with the help of the Internet, they were all shocked.
"Jesus, are these pieces of news real?" SWAT C couldn't believe his eyes.
"Of course they're real," SWAT A said.
"She's only 19, but she's unbelievably successful."
"She's still a high school student!"
"Wow, she's so amazing that she can beat so many people up in such a short time."
"…"
All of them got excited and kept on reading more news about Gu Ning.
"She is a goddess!"
"She is. Every Internet user calls her Goddess Gu."
"She's my goddess too now."
"…"
At that moment a group of strong men became Gu Ning's fans.
"I want to compete against her in fighting!" a SWAT said with anticipation.
However, his colleagues looked at him with disdain.
"Forget it, I don't think you can beat a bunch of security guards up alone."
"Can you…"
While they were arguing with each other, Gu Ning and Li Zhongwei went to the office of Team No.1.
In their organisation, every team consisted of seven or eight people. If it was a normal task, it required fewer people, so they only took action together when it was necessary and important.
This time, it was a very important task, so many SWATs worked together in order to catch their target. Team No.1 was on the front line, so its members knew the situation better than others.
However, people who supported Team No.1 all had to listen to Li Zhongwei's orders.
Team No.1 was the best team among SWAT teams, and it normally went to the front line when it was needed.
Other than Li Zhongwei, who was the team leader, there were five men and a woman in the team.
In the office room, all five male teammates were present but the female teammate was absent.
When they saw Gu Ning, they were surprised by her beautiful appearance.
"Where is Du?" Li Zhongwei asked. Du was the only female member in their team.
"I don't know. She just left," a SWAT replied.
Li Zhongwei didn't ask further and introduced Gu Ning to them. "This is Gu Ning, Miss Gu, and she'll be helping us sneak into the cruise."
"What?"
Everyone was surprised, because Gu Ning was a stranger.
Since Li Zhongwei found Gu Ning in person, they wouldn't doubt Gu Ning's ability, but…
"Leader, isn't that Du's job?" a SWAT said. He thought that it wasn't fair for Du.
"Right!" Other people agreed.
Li Zhongwei turned to Gu Ning for help for a reason, but Du was very important in their team as well.
"Du isn't capable of completing the job properly, and Miss Gu is much better than her at martial arts. If Miss Gu does this for us it raises the possibility that we can succeed to over 90%," Li Zhongwei said.
He understood that the others were arguing for Du, but they had to make sure that the task would be successfully completed.
Hearing Li Zhongwei's explanation, everyone was surprised again.
In order to make them believe in Gu Ning, Li Zhongwei added, "I just had a fight against Miss Gu, and Miss Gu was able to control me within just five minutes. Du is excellent in our team, but she can't beat me. Do you think she can defeat Miss Gu?"
"Really?" someone asked.
If their team leader couldn't win the fight against Gu Ning, Gu Ning must be much better than the rest of them. However, it wasn't easy for them to believe it, because Gu Ning looked too young and she was slim.
"Why don't you try yourself if you have doubts?" Li Zhongwei proposed. He had talked about it with Gu Ning before they came here, and Gu Ning agreed.
"Let me have a try!" All of a sudden, a female voice sounded at the door. That woman was precisely Du.
Du's full name was Du Jingtong, and she was 27 this year. She was a cool girl with short hair wearing a SWAT uniform.
Du Jingtong was born in a police family. Her father was a SWAT, and her mother was a civilian policewoman, so she had a special feeling for the police since childhood. She made up her mind to become a policewoman when she grew up.
Du Jingtong's uncle was an important figure in a military region, so she grew up with all kinds of soldiers. She had also joined the army for three years and she was always the most outstanding female soldier among her peers.
After she was discharged, she was directly assigned to the SWAT unit and became a member of Team No.1 within two years.
Du Jingtong was admired by many people in the SWAT unit. She was also an ambitious person, and she was reluctant to be replaced by a stranger.
Even though her team leader told her that Gu Ning was much better than her, she was unwilling to give up without having a try.
This task was super dangerous and she wasn't fully confident that she could complete it without being hurt, but she wasn't afraid of danger as a SWAT.
"No problem," Gu Ning said to Du Jingtong.
Li Zhongwei also agreed.
1202 Once Again
When Du Jingtong saw Gu Ning's face, she was stunned by her beauty and got jealous of her. Not only was Gu Ning beautiful, but Gu Ning was also good at martial arts. Gu Ning even stole her job, so she disliked Gu Ning.
Seeing Du Jingtong's expression, Li Zhongwei understood that she didn't like Gu Ning, but he wasn't worried that she might hurt Gu Ning because she didn't have the ability to do that.
"Alright, let's go outside now," Li Zhongwei said.
After that, they walked out together.
Although the office room was large, it wasn't a good place to compete in fighting. Therefore they went to the playground and many SWATs surrounded them at once.
It was a secret that Du Jingtong was going to be the undercover agent this time, but it was fine to let other people watch the competition.
"Hi, Goddess Gu!" SWAT A shouted with excitement.
Hearing the way he called her, Gu Ning knew that he must have found out what she had done before from the Internet.
She kindly smiled at them and said nothing.
Except for Du Jingtong, only Gu Ning was a female there, so other men understood that SWAT A just greeted Gu Ning.
However, he called her his goddess. Even though Gu Ning was very beautiful, there were a lot of more beautiful women in this world.
"Move a little," Li Zhongwei said to them and told them to walk away so that Gu Ning and Du Jingtong had enough space.
SWAT A didn't know what they were going to do, but he still stepped away with his colleagues.
In the center of the crowd, Gu Ning stood across from Du Jingtong facing her.
SWAT A and his colleagues soon realized that Gu Ning and Du Jingtong were going to have a competition of fighting skills.
"Who do you think will win?" SWAT D asked.
"Goddess Gu will win!" SWAT A said with certainty.
Du Jingtong was indeed very outstanding in the SWAT unit, but she couldn't be better than Gu Ning, who had beat a bunch of security guards up alone. Even they couldn't do what Gu Ning had done, let alone Du Jingtong.
People who had read the news about Gu Ning all believed that she could win, while Du Jingtong's teammates held a totally different idea. They hoped that Du Jingtong could win.
Because they were teammates, they sided with her without any doubt.
Du Jingtong stared at Gu Ning with obvious dislike. She knew their task was more important than personal affairs, but she still hated Gu Ning.
Gu Ning didn't mind at all.
"Alright, the match begins!" Li Zhongwei made the announcement and Gu Ning along with Du Jingtong started to attack each other.
Although it was just a competition of fighting skills for fun, its result was related to tonight's task, so Gu Ning used her full strength.
As soon as she made a move, Gu Ning directly threw Du Jingtong over her shoulder. Du Jingtong entirely fell down to the ground, but she was already used to it, so it wasn't very painful.
However, the moment she fell on the ground, Gu Ning caught her hands and pressed them against her back. At the same time, Gu Ning forced her to stay still with knees pressed against her legs.
After a series of quick movements, Gu Ning controlled Du Jingtong within seconds, shocking everyone who wanted to watch an exciting show.
Even Li Zhongwei, who knew Gu Ning was excellent at fighting, was astonished.
It looked super easy for Gu Ning to win the competition given her unbelievable speed and skills.
Du Jingtong couldn't believe it either, and refused to accept that she lost the match within seconds.
After being shocked for a short while, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
"Jesus, I can't believe my eyes!" SWAT A said.
"Did she just force Du Jingtong onto the ground within seconds?" SWAT C exclaimed.
"Yes and yes! I told you Goddess Gu would win!" SWAT A said with pride.
"Maybe Du Jingtong isn't prepared yet," someone argued for Du Jingtong.
"Not prepared yet? Ridiculous. She could be killed if it were a real fight," another person said.
"She failed and that's the truth. Just admit it," another man said.
Although Du Jingtong's teammates wanted to defend her, they weren't dumb. Du Jingtong wasn't unprepared, she was just no match for Gu Ning.
"No, I can't believe it. We should do this once again!" Du Jingtong said in annoyance. She felt humiliated.
"Sure, I can give you another chance," Gu Ning said, and let Du Jingtong go.
Du Jingtong stood up at once.
Although she was just thrown over Gu Ning's shoulder and fell to the ground, she protected herself well and didn't feel much pain.
She patted her clothing to get rid of dirt, then glared at Gu Ning again.
Gu Ning still didn't mind.
For Li Zhongwei's sake, she didn't bother to have conflict with Du Jingtong.
Gu Ning wasn't someone Du Jingtong could mess with after all.
Even though Du Jingtong indeed lost the job because of her, it wasn't her fault because it was Li Zhongwei who turned to her for help.
She agreed to help them out of kindness, and she didn't know that the job was assigned to Du Jingtong before her. Therefore, it was unreasonable for Du Jingtong to blame her for it.
1203 A Better Choice
If Li Zhongwei didn't need her help, she would withdraw without delay.
After a long while, Li Zhongwei asked, "Are you ready?"
"Yeah, I'm ready," Du Jingtong said. This time, she reminded herself to be fully cautious.
"The second round begins!" Li Zhongwei shouted.
Du Jingtong and Gu Ning began to attack each other once more.
Although Du Jingtong stayed very alert this time, she was still beaten by Gu Ning within seconds.
Nobody doubted Gu Ning's ability after the second round, and they admired Gu Ning more now.
Du Jingtong was disappointed, but had to accept the result. It was embarrassing that she lost again, but it would be more humiliating if she continued. However, she held a grudge against Gu Ning from then on.
"Wow, Goddess Gu is so cool!"
"I'm her fan now."
"…"
People kept complimenting Gu Ning.
"Why do you call her Goddess Gu?" Someone was curious.
"Hard to explain. You can search her name on the Internet yourself," SWAT A said.
Other people heard and took out their phones at once. Their attitude towards Gu Ning changed in an instant after reading the news about her.
Du Jingtong didn't search Gu Ning's name, but heard their discussion about Gu Ning, and she was quite displeased.
Gu Ning was much prettier, stronger, and even richer than her.
She felt like there was a huge gap between her and Gu Ning. It seemed she wasn't even qualified to be jealous of Gu Ning. Why could Gu Ning be so outstanding at such an early age?
Du Jingtong enjoyed the feeling of always being the most noticeable one among her peers, but Gu Ning's appearance ruined everything. She felt like she wasn't worth mentioning before Gu Ning.
"Alright, we should go back to the office now," Li Zhongwei said. They were going to talk about something serious.
After that, they went back to the office together, followed by Gu Ning.
SWAT A wanted to talk with Gu Ning for a while longer, but it wasn't appropriate to stop her right now, so he gave up.
Li Zhongwei walked slower and said to Du Jingtong in a low voice, "I know you're in a terrible mood now because I turned to Gu Ning for help, but this task is very important. We must make sure that we succeed."
"Leader, are you doubting my ability?" Du Jingtong asked. "I know she's far better than me at martial arts, but it doesn't mean she can fulfill this task better than me."
"I understand, but Gu Ning is a better choice than you. You just had a competition with her, and you should know it as well," Li Zhongwei said.
Du Jingtong closed her mouth, because she couldn't deny it. Besides, it was their team leader's decision, so she could only accept it.
"I know you don't like Gu Ning, but she isn't someone you can mess with. No matter how annoyed you are, you must control your temper and don't cause her any trouble," Li Zhongwei said.
"I won't," Du Jingtong replied.
When they were back in the office, Li Zhongwei said, "It's 5 pm now, so we should put on our casual clothes for dinner first, my treat this time. Gu Ning will wear her clothing later and I'll contact the clubhouse. Once the cruise ship is parked at the wharf, we'll set off."
"Sure!" Everyone agreed, then went to prepare.
"Miss Gu, please go to buy a dress and a pair of high-heels with me in the shopping mall. You also need to put on some make-up. Don't worry, I'll pay the bills. Remember to wear tight short pants under your dress because you need to fight," Li Zhongwei said.
"It's fine, I have clothes and shoes of my own, and I can do the make-up on my own too," Gu Ning said.
"Are you sure?" Li Zhongwei asked.
"Yeah, it's not a big deal," Gu Ning said.
"Great!" Since she said that, Li Zhongwei didn't insist.
When everyone was prepared, they left together.
"Miss Gu, do you want anything specific to eat?" Li Zhongwei asked Gu Ning, because Gu Ning was their guest.
"I'm not picky, and you can decide," Gu Ning said.
"Alright." Li Zhongwei didn't ask further.
Since they had a guest today, Li Zhongwei thought that they should go to a fine restaurant tonight. Therefore, Li Zhongwei brought them to a famous fancy restaurant.
"Oh, thank you so much, Miss Gu. It's because of you that we can dine in such a fancy restaurant tonight."
"We only dined in street diners before!"
"Ha-ha, ha-ha."
They kept joking about it.
Chapter 1204 Totally Differen
"Stop joking about it!" Li Zhongwei said and laughed."Aren't you afraid your wife will be displeased if she finds out?" a SWAT asked.
"Don't worry, my wife isn't mean at all," Li Zhongwei said.
"Alright, we'll enjoy it tonight," another SWAT said.
"Alright, let's go now!" Li Zhongwei said.
There were eight of them in all so they drove two cars.
Because Gu Ning needed to do her part tonight, she left her car at the SWAT unit.
…
Du Jingtong didn't sit in the same car as Li Zhongwei, so her teammates all comforted her knowing that she wasn't in a good mood.
They didn't want Gu Ning to replace Du Jingtong before they knew about Gu Ning's ability, but now they thought that Gu Ning was indeed a better choice. If Gu Ning helped them complete the task, it was more likely for them to succeed and Du Jingtong would be safe too.
They were worried about Gu Ning's safety as well, but Gu Ning was a stranger to them while they had worked together with Du Jingtong for years after all.
As long as they could successfully finish the task, they thought that it was not a big deal for Gu Ning to replace Du Jingtong that once.
Du Jingtong felt better afterwards and began to chat with her teammates in the car.
The restaurant wasn't far away, and they arrived about 10 minutes later. They parked their cars, and got out at once.
The second Du Jingtong saw Gu Ning's face, she was displeased again, but she had to learn how to deal with her emotions during her work. No matter how unhappy she was, she had to tolerate it.
…
Shortly after they walked into the hall, Gu Ning met an acquaintance.
The person was a manager working for a company under Tanghuang, and he had seen Gu Ning several times before at some important events.
"Oh, hi, Miss Gu, what a coincidence!" He greeted Gu Ning with a smile.
Although he knew Gu Ning was Tang Yunfan's biological daughter, he knew that Gu Ning was unwilling to change her surname, so he still called her Miss Gu, instead of Miss Tang.
"Hi, Manager Ma, nice to see you," Gu Ning politely said.
"Did you come here for dinner? Miss Gu, if you don't mind, please allow me to pay the bill for you," Manager Ma said. He seized every chance to please Gu Ning.
"Thanks, Manager Ma, but my friend will pay the bill. Maybe we can dine together next time," Gu Ning said with a smile. She couldn't directly turn him down, so she made an excuse.
"Ha-ha, alright. Miss Gu, please do give me a chance to dine with you next time," Manager Ma said.
"See you," Gu Ning said.
"See you then," Manager Ma said and walked away.
Gu Ning and her new friends walked ahead afterwards.
"Oh, I thought I could have a free meal tonight!" Li Zhongwei joked.
Gu Ning smiled but said nothing, because she knew that Li Zhongwei was joking.
"Why? Leader, don't be so mean," a SWAT said.
"You can't do that. You promised to pay the bill," another SWAT said.
They were determined to make Li Zhongwei pay the bill.
"Alright, alright, I'm just joking!" Li Zhongwei said.
When the dishes were placed on the table, it was already 5:30 pm.
They had to finish the meal before 6 pm, because Gu Ning needed some time to put on make-up before she went to the clubhouse.
They had all served in the army, so they were able to eat fast and nobody talked during dinner.
Before 6 pm, they finished dinner and Gu Ning went to put on her make-up.
Gu Ning already took out the clothes and make-up products she needed from the telepathic eye space so that she could quickly wear them. She then went to the washroom of the private room where they dined because the mirror inside was big.
Gu Ning was unwilling to show her real face later, so she slightly disguised herself as another woman.
She put a clay mold on her chin and the tip of her nose to make the chin sharp and turn her oval face into a melon-seed face. She also made her lips thicker.
With heavy make-up and curly hair, she looked completely different and looked like a mature woman now.
Those who were familiar with Gu Ning would probably think that they looked a little similar, but none of them would believe that they were exactly the same person.
Her knee-length dress was black with a sleeveless top and a shallow V-neck. Although this dress didn't look very sexy, it became quite attractive on Gu Ning's body with the help of her face.
When Gu Ning walked out of the washroom, she amazed everyone.
1205 Choose to Trust Gu Ning
They weren't very familiar with Gu Ning, so they looked at Gu Ning as if they were staring at another woman.
After being shocked for a long while, they finally got their mind back.
"Wow, I can't believe my eyes. You look totally different now," Li Zhongwei said with surprise.
"Why do I think your face type also changed?" a SWAT said.
"It indeed changed. Goddess Gu, how did you make it happen?" another SWAT asked.
Even Du Jingtong was impressed by Gu Ning's skills of using making up.
As a result, Du Jingtong was getting increasingly jealous of Gu Ning. It seemed Gu Ning was able to do everything better than her.
Gu Ning smiled and said, "Well, I don't want other people to recognize me, so I disguised myself as another woman with make-up and the help of molding prosthetics."
Men knew little about make-up, but they admired Gu Ning's skills.
"Oh, this is the photo of our target tonight. You better remember his face." Li Zhongwei took out a photo and gave it to Gu Ning.
Gu Ning simply glanced at it, then bore the man's face in her mind.
"He's one of the leaders of the drug gang, and he is holding this party today in order to threaten his guests to do something, but we don't know what it is yet. We aim to catch him instead of killing him, because we need to find out who his partners are. It's fine if you injure or even disable him as long as he stays alive," Li Zhongwei said.
After a second, he added, "You have to do the security check before you get on the cruise, so you can't bring any weapons or electronic equipment with you. We'll lose touch with you once you're aboard, so we can only make the judgment that you've succeeded when the cruise goes back to the shore."
They weren't sure where their target would show up, and they didn't know whether they would be able to spot him right away.
Since they couldn't see him, there was no way for them to catch him.
"You can give me a miniature camera that is connected to you. I can bring it in," Gu Ning said with confidence.
"Seriously?"
Everyone was surprised.
"Can you bring a miniature camera inside?" Du Jingtong didn't believe it.
During the security check, anything that wasn't allowed to be brought inside could easily be detected even if it was hidden in someone's mouth.
It was impossible for Gu Ning to swallow a miniature camera.
The others also couldn't believe it.
"Are you sure?" Li Zhongwei asked with doubts.
"I'm sure," Gu Ning said. In order to persuade Li Zhongwei to believe it, Gu Ning made a promise. "If it causes any problems, I'll take responsibility."
"They have guns. Do you think you can survive if they find you have a camera? If you're caught, our task will be ruined and we'll be punished too. Can you take responsibility for that as well?" Du Jingtong criticized.
"Jingtong!" Li Zhongwei stopped her at once. Although Du Jingtong said nothing wrong, her tone was too unkind.
It was true that Li Zhongwei and his teammates would be in trouble if Gu Ning failed this time. Li Zhongwei might lose his job because he was the one who turned to Gu Ning for help.
Gu Ning was a little displeased, but she stayed calm. She understood that they had to be very cautious.
They were ordinary people, so it was understandable that they didn't believe that Gu Ning was able to bring a camera inside without being caught.
However, Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary person, and she had telepathic eye space! She could bring anything inside as long as the telepathic eye space could accommodate it.
"I'm afraid I can't tell you more details, but I can promise that I'm able to bring it in as long as you trust me," Gu Ning said, staring at Li Zhongwei. "If I'm really caught by them, I'll directly dash inside to catch the target person. If I fail, you can do whatever you want to punish me."
Li Zhongwei didn't say anything, but thought about Gu Ning's words carefully.
"Leader, do you really think she can do that?" Du Jingtong was annoyed.
If Li Zhongwei wasn't married, she would be suspicious of his behavior and attitude towards Gu Ning. She didn't understand why he indulged Gu Ning. Du Jingtong disliked Gu Ning, so she tended to think badly about Gu Ning.
"Leader, I think you should consider it seriously."
"If Miss Gu fails, her life could be in danger."
"…"
Even though they admired Gu Ning, they couldn't side with her this time.
Gu Ning wasn't mad, and didn't bother to explain it again. If they disagreed, she wouldn't force them to agree with her. She could figure out another way by then.
"I choose to trust Miss Gu." Li Zhongwei made his decision in the end.
He thought that Gu Ning wasn't a naive girl, and her success was equal to her ability. He believed that Gu Ning must have a good way to bring a camera inside.
Chapter 1206 Be Careful
"Leader…"Everyone was surprised that their leader really agreed with Gu Ning.
"Alright, I'll take responsibility for the result no matter what happens. You will be fine," Li Zhongwei said.
"Leader, we…"
They weren't afraid to be involved in the trouble, but they were unwilling to get in trouble because of Gu Ning.
Li Zhongwei ignored them and looked to Gu Ning. "Miss Gu, my career relies on you now. I hope that you can succeed!"
Although Li Zhongwei felt quite stressed, he pretended to be relaxed because he didn't want to put too much pressure on Gu Ning.
"Don't worry, I never do something that I'm not confident to do well," Gu Ning said to comfort him.
Li Zhongwei nodded and felt better.
Other people still found it hard to believe Gu Ning because they had just spent a short time with her, so they all began to look at Gu Ning with dissatisfaction.
Du Jingtong hated Gu Ning to death now, and she hoped that Gu Ning wouldn't survive today.
"Alright, let's go now," Li Zhongwei said and stood up.
It was enough for Li Zhongwei to take Gu Ning into the clubhouse alone. They didn't want to attract too much attention.
As for the rest of the people, they needed to wait for Li Zhongwei's order.
Once they were in the car, Li Zhongwei gave Gu Ning the miniature camera and the car started.
Gu Ning and Li Zhongwei arrived at the underground parking lot before 7 pm, then Li Zhongwei called a manager.
After having the call with the manager, Li Zhongwei said to Gu Ning, "He's reliable to some extent, but you still need to be careful."
The manager of this clubhouse was one of Li Zhongwei's friends.
"I will," Gu Ning said.
They waited for three minutes, and then the manager showed up. He was a man in his early thirties.
They already had an agreement about today's task, so they didn't talk about it now, and the manager brought Gu Ning away without delay.
When the manager received the message to get onto the cruise ship later, he would text Li Zhongwei.
All nine prostitutes were ready in the lounge, and they were chatting with each other and laughed loudly.
Actually, they didn't know what kind of party they were going to join. They only knew that it was a private sex party held by rich people, and they could earn a lot of money after today's work, so they were very excited.
It wasn't easy for them to make much money in their daily work. However, they could earn as much money as they would from a month's work after today's party. If their guests were satisfied with their service, they could get more money.
"I feel so sorry for Luoluo. Her period came today, so she missed such a great chance!" a prostitute said and seemed sad, but she actually was gloating.
These prostitutes seemed to get along well with each other on the surface, but they were competitors.
All of them wanted to sleep with a generous rich man in order to get a large tip. Therefore, they were all scantily clad today in order to attract the rich men's attention.
They knew Luoluo wouldn't show up today and that she would be replaced by another prostitute. As long as the new girl wasn't too noticeable, they wouldn't mind.
Because Luoluo was normally more popular than them, Luoluo would always have the highest pay among them. Therefore they actually didn't want Luoluo to join them.
"I'm curious about the new girl's appearance," a prostitute said all of a sudden.
"She's no different from us," another prostitute said.
They all hoped the new girl would be uglier than them, but it wasn't very likely that the new girl would be too ugly.
At this moment, the door of the lounge was pushed open.
The prostitutes stopped chatting at once and turned to look at the door.
The manager walked inside first, and a woman followed him. The second those prostitutes saw the women, they got jealous. This woman was even prettier than Luoluo! Her body was also the best among them.
They didn't understand why the manager found such a beautiful woman to replace Luoluo.
"This is Ai Li, and she'll replace Luoluo at the party with you later," the manager said to them. Ai Li was Gu Ning's new name in this operation.
The manager noticed the prostitutes' jealousy towards Gu Ning, so he warned them. "Today's party is very important, and you have to obey the rules. Don't cause me any trouble!"
"Yes, manager," those prostitutes said. Although they disliked Ai Li, they didn't dare to cause trouble today.
1207 Take Action
Today was a great chance to make a lot of money, and none of them wanted to miss it.
A few minutes later, the manager received a call from the host of the party, and he was informed to get to the cruise ship which was docked at the No.7 wharf. They had to be aboard before 8 pm.
After hanging up the call, the manager immediately sent Li Zhongwei a message before leaving for the cruise ship with the prostitutes.
The prostitutes kept chatting and bragging along the way. They were all busy comparing themselves with one another, and nobody paid attention to Gu Ning.
Gu Ning didn't care at all, because she didn't want to talk to them either. She disliked prostitutes and kept her distance from them.
…
Li Zhongwei and his teammates went to No.7 wharf without hesitation.
When it was 7:40 pm, they arrived at No.7 wharf. There were many luxurious cars parked in a parking lot nearby.
About 15 people were invited to attend tonight's party, and they were all partners in business. However, they didn't know that there would be drugs in the party, so they weren't aware of the real aim behind tonight's activity.
Li Zhongwei learned the real purpose of tonight's party with the help of an undercover agent in the organization that held the party.
Their target was on the cruise right now, but they couldn't use violence to try to catch them in case he ran away.
They had to send another undercover agent to control their target before they took action.
…
Gu Ning followed the other prostitutes and got off the small bus at an appointed passage.
The cruise ship was relatively small with a width of seven or eight meters and a length of 30 meters. It had three floors. The first floor was the lobby, rooms were on the second floor, and there were all kinds of recreation facilities on the third floor.
The people who organized the party didn't know that they already caught the attention of the police, so they did the security check carelessly. However, all the guests and the prostitutes' phones and bags were left at the front desk.
Gu Ning put everything she needed in the telepathic eye space.
They got inside without much effort.
The manager didn't go inside, because he didn't know that this was a drug party until Li Zhongwei told him.
He didn't go inside because he was unwilling to be involved in this trouble.
Gu Ning used her jade eyes to glance around when she walked inside, and she found that the bodyguards who stood outside the door didn't carry guns.
…
There was a large and luxurious hall in the cruise ship.
Ten rich men were already present, but some were still absent.
Several people sent by the host were welcoming their guests, but the most important figure hadn't shown up yet.
The rest of the people in the hall were all waiters.
This party was also a buffet, but there would be no drugs in the food until the cruise left the shore.
Once the prostitutes joined the party, several of them went to their familiar clients.
These rich men were all lecherous, and they definitely wouldn't reject beautiful women.
Other prostitutes, on the other hand, were active in seducing their new clients.
Gu Ning wouldn't do the same thing as them, because she felt disgusted having those old men touched her body. However, she came here as a prostitute and all a prostitute needed to do was to please those rich men. If she didn't do that, she would soon be exposed.
Therefore, Gu Ning made an excuse and went to the washroom at once.
When she was in the washroom, she looked around to see whether there were surveillance cameras.
Luckily, there was no surveillance camera in the washroom. In that case, she could conduct her plan.
She needed to locate her target first.
Other than the grand hall, the first floor only contained a kitchen, so her target wasn't on the first floor, and Gu Ning moved her sight to the second floor without hesitation.
Under the stairs to the second floor, there were two bodyguards with guns. On the landing of the second floor, there were another two armed bodyguards.
Gu Ning soon saw a big room that had two bodyguards with guns standing at its door.
She finally found her target in this room. Other than her target, there were another two middle-aged men and six armed bodyguards.
All in all, the bodyguards weren't many in Gu Ning's eyes.
It was 10 minutes away from 8 pm, and Gu Ning thought that she could directly catch the man within these 10 minutes to save some time.
Therefore, she looked around to see whether she could get into the second floor without attracting the attention of the bodyguards on the stairs.
After looking around for a while, she found there were no bodyguards on the balcony of the third floor.
The window of the room where her target was in was open, so Gu Ning could get into the room through the window to catch her target.
She had to move as fast as she could and attract as little attention as possible from other people in the cruise.
Gu Ning then let the jiao out and told it to move her up to the third floor.
It was very dark that night, so nobody could see the jiao even if its body was completely exposed.
Chapter 1208 – Catch the Suspect
The jiao easily moved Gu Ning up to the third floor with its body. Gu Ning then stepped on the balcony without making any noise.
She then put the jiao back into the telepathic eye space and fastened the miniature camera to her wrist with a rope, then turned it on.
At this time, Li Zhongwei and his teammates were already waiting in the parking lot of No.7 wharf.
Li Zhongwei didn't have much hope, but he was still surprised when the screen of the miniature camera started to work.
The others in the car were also astonished.
"No way, she successfully brought the miniature camera in!"
"Jesus, she's so amazing."
"I feel guilty now for what I said to her."
"…"
Du Jingtong felt utterly embarrassed watching the video sent from the miniature camera on the screen.
Gu Ning took out her phone and sent Li Zhongwei a message at once.
Li Zhongwei gave Gu Ning his phonenumber before they came, but he didn't have Gu Ning's phone number. Therefore, Gu Ning told him her name when she sent the message.
Gu Ning: I'm Gu Ning. Can you see the video? Is everything working normally? I'm going to take action now.
After that, Gu Ning turned the camera to her face.
Li Zhongwei received Gu Ning's message the next second, and he was shocked that Gu Ning also brought her phone inside.
Although he was curious to know how Gu Ning managed to do that, it wasn't the right time to talk about it right now.
He sent a message back to Gu Ning without delay and told her everything was ready.
Afterwards, he informed his teammates by walkie talkie and told them to be prepared.
Gu Ning put her phone back into the telepathic eye space, then got into the room through the window.
When she jumped into the room, she attracted the attention of everyone in it. Her sudden appearance stunned them, and Gu Ning ran straight to her target.
They soon took out their guns, but Gu Ning already caught the target person and pointed a gun against his head.
It happened so fast that everyone rounded their eyes in shock.
In fact, the suspect was good at fighting, but he had no time to fight back facing Gu Ning's attack.
Those bodyguards pointed their guns at Gu Ning, but they didn't dare to shoot in case they injured their boss.
Li Zhongwei and his teammates clearly saw that their target was in Gu Ning's hands right now.
Without hesitation, Li Zhongwei gave an order and told his teammates to take action.
It was five minutes to 8 pm, so the cruise hadn't started yet, and they could directly dash inside.
"Who are you?" the suspect asked.
"The person who needs to catch you," Gu Ning said.
"Who sent you here?" the suspect asked again. He had too many enemies, and he didn't know who sent Gu Ning to catch him.
However, no matter who did it, he was furious. As long as he could survive today, he was determined to pay the person back.
"Follow me out and you'll know it," Gu Ning said and pushed the suspect out the door.
Because there was a gun pointed against his head, the suspect had no choice but to move forward.
His bodyguards followed them the whole way.
The two bodyguards were shocked and scared when their boss was pushed out by a woman. They also pulled out their guns to point at Gu Ning, but they didn't dare to shoot.
"My people are all around here. Aren't you afraid you'll be killed?" The suspect threatened Gu Ning.
"I don't think they can do it faster than me," Gu Ning sneered. She wasn't afraid of these bodyguards at all.
The suspect was struck dumb for a second. Since Gu Ning was able to catch him like lightning when everyone was still in shock, it proved that she could kill him whenever she wanted.
"All of you, walk ahead of us," Gu Ning said to the bodyguards. She didn't want to be surrounded by them.
Those bodyguards hesitated for a while, so the suspect gave an order at once. "Do what she said!"
He was unwilling to risk his own life.
Since he said that, his bodyguards had to obey his order.
All the bodyguards walked backwards together to the hall on the first floor, and Gu Ning moved slowly with the suspect in her hands.
The relaxed atmosphere in the hall was instantly interrupted by the bunch of bodyguards.
When they saw the guns held in their hands, they were all frightened and hid in the corners.
"Jesus, isn't she Ai Li?"
"What's she doing?"
"Didn't you tell me that I'd know who sent you once we're out?" the suspect asked. He ached to find out who sent Gu Ning to catch him.
"Don't worry, you'll see him soon," Gu Ning said.
Chapter 1209 Want Nothing in Return
About 10 seconds later, a group of armed SWATs broke inside, which scared everyone in the room.
Once the suspect saw the SWATs, he realized what was going here. He thought that it must be his enemy who schemed against him behind his back, so he could settle it with money. However, if his enemy was the police, he was doomed to be arrested.
"Put the guns down!" Li Zhongwei shouted at them.
There were nearly 20 armed SWATs, while the suspect only had about 10 bodyguards, so it was impossible for them to win. Besides, their leader was still in Gu Ning's hands!
Those bodyguards didn't listen to Li Zhongwei, but turned to look at the suspect.
"Put the guns down," the suspect said, because he was left no choice. If he dared to struggle, he could be killed.
Since their leader gave the order, those bodyguards put their guns down at once.
Without delay, around 10 SWATs dashed forward and took their guns away before they handcuffed them.
Li Zhongwei then walked to Gu Ning and handcuffed the suspect. Another SWAT stepped over and took the suspect away.
"Here, it's yours now." Gu Ning took off the miniature camera and gave it to Li Zhongwei.
Li Zhongwei took it and he thought that the gun in Gu Ning's hands belonged to the suspect, so he said, "Miss Gu, this gun…"
"Oh, this is mine," Gu Ning said.
"What?" Li Zhongwei was shocked.
Gu Ning is a common citizen. How could she have a gun? How did she bring it inside?
Gu Ning explained it at once. "I have a firearms license, and I can show it to you later."
Actually, the firearms license was in her telepathic eye space, but she couldn't take it out right now in front of everyone. After all, it was already difficult for them to understand how she took a phone, a miniature camera and a gun inside.
Gu Ning walked straight outside. Although she was involved in today's action, she wasn't a member of the SWAT team so she should leave it to Li Zhongwei.
Since Gu Ning said that she had a firearms license, Li Zhongwei didn't ask further.
An ordinary person normally couldn't have a gun, but Li Zhongwei thought that Gu Ning was probably picked by a special department of the government, so she had the privilege.
Li Zhongwei thought that it was highly possible.
Du Jingtong didn't hear Gu Ning's conversation with Li Zhongwei, so she stopped Gu Ning when Gu Ning walked out with a gun.
"May I help?" Gu Ning coldly looked at her.
"You can't take this gun away," Du Jingtong said. She also thought that the gun belonged to the suspect.
It was illegal for a common citizen to carry a gun.
Gu Ning understood that it was a misunderstanding, so she wasn't annoyed and smiled. "This is mine, and I have a firearms license. I can show you later."
After that, she ignored Du Jingtong and left.
Du Jingtong, on the other hand, was stunned. She couldn't believe that Gu Ning was allowed to carry a gun as a common citizen.
It seemed Gu Ning was a girl who was full of surprises.
Since Gu Ning could carry a gun with her, she couldn't be a common citizen.
No matter what, Du Jingtong couldn't stop Gu Ning now.
Not only was Du Jingtong shocked, but several other SWATs who also heard it were very surprised too.
The suspect and his bodyguards were brought back to the police station. As for the rest of the people at the party, they needed to go give an oral statement, so Li Zhongwei told five SWATs to stay to guard them.
Afterwards, he went back with the other teammates.
Gu Ning didn't go to the parking lot once she left the cruise ship. She went to the river when nobody was paying attention to her and let the jiao out. She would pick it up tomorrow night.
Li Zhongwei drove Gu Ning back to the SWAT unit, while Du Jingtong and the others shared a small bus.
"Miss Gu, I'm curious to know how you brought a phone, a miniature camera, and a gun with you inside?" Li Zhongwei asked.
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you more details," Gu Ning said.
Since Gu Ning was unwilling to tell him, Li Zhongwei stopped asking.
"Miss Gu, thank you so much for what you've done for us today. I'll report it to my leader. You deserve a reward," Li Zhongwei said.
"Thanks, but I don't need it," Gu Ning said. "I agreed to help you because this action is meaningful."
She didn't lack any rewards.
"Why? You've done us a great favor," Li Zhongwei said.
He understood that Gu Ning wasn't greedy at all, and she agreed to help them because she was very kind. Gu Ning was indeed a girl who had a strong sense of justice. However, he felt a little guilty if Gu Ning didn't get any rewards.
Chapter 1210 I Met a Mutant Today
"It's no big deal," Gu Ning said.
"Fine." Since Gu Ning said that, Li Zhongwei didn't insist.
When they were back in the SWAT unit, Gu Ning showed Li Zhongwei her firearms license.
Although Li Zhongwei already believed Gu Ning's explanation, it was safer to make sure and have a look.
There were fake firearms licenses, but Li Zhongwei didn't think that Gu Ning would do that, because it wouldn't do her any good. Gu Ning was a celebrity now, and she was also a famous and successful woman after all.
Li Zhongwei checked the firearms license before he gave it back to Gu Ning. Gu Ning turned to ask Du Jingtong, "Do you want to have a look?"
Du Jingtong remained silent and turned her head away. It was obvious that she believed it and didn't bother to have a look.
Since Li Zhongwei already checked it, it couldn't be fake.
Du Jingtong was less jealous of Gu Ning now, because Gu Ning's skills were far better than hers.
When a person's ability was far beyond your imagination, you wouldn't be jealous of them anymore.
Du Jingtong was still annoyed at Gu Ning because Gu Ning had stolen her job, but she was a smart girl, and she knew that this task was very important.
"Miss Gu, please accept our apologies. We shouldn't have doubted you before." Several SWATs apologized to Gu Ning.
Although they knew what they had done wasn't wrong, they had to admit that Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary girl. Gu Ning proved her ability with her action, so they should stop doubting her.
"You don't need to say that. I don't think you've done anything wrong, because it is indeed very hard for ordinary people to bring any stuff inside," Gu Ning said. She didn't mind it at all. If she didn't have the telepathic eye space, she wouldn't have been able to do it.
Since Gu Ning didn't mind, the others were relieved.
"Alright, it's not early now, and I should go home," Gu Ning said.
She waved good-bye to Li Zhongwei and left. It was a long day for Gu Ning, and she felt a little tired now.
Li Zhongwei didn't stop Gu Ning and watched her leave.
…
Once Gu Ning was gone, several SWATs began to talk about her curiously.
"I'm so surprised by Gu Ning, and I'm curious to know more about her. I think her family must be very powerful."
"Yeah, I'm also amazed by what she just did."
"If she was a criminal, none of us would be able to catch her."
"You're right."
"Oh, hey, boss, did you ask Gu Ning how she managed to bring a miniature camera, a phone, and a gun into the cruise ship?" a SWAT asked.
"Yeah, but she didn't tell me, and I didn't ask further about it," Li Zhongwei said.
Since Gu Ning was unwilling to tell them, they couldn't force her to do it.
…
Gu Ning went back to her house later. When she was about to take a shower, Leng Shaoting called her.
"Ningning, what are you doing right now?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"I just came back home," Gu Ning said. "How about you?"
"I was also busy, and called you once I was free," Leng Shaoting said. "Ningning, I miss you."
He hadn't seen her for several days!
Gu Ning smiled with happiness. "I miss you too."
They were already used to saying sweet nothings to each other, so neither of them felt embarrassed.
"Are you in City B, or City F?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"I'm still in City B; I'll go back to City F the day after tomorrow," Gu Ning said.
"Great, my grandfather said we'll visit your family for our engagement once you finish the National College Entrance Examination," Leng Shaoting said with excitement.
Master Leng always wanted to visit the Tang family in City B, but Leng Shaoting wasn't free and Gu Ning needed to prepare for the National College Entrance Examination, so it was delayed. It was for the formal engagement, so Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning had to be there.
"No problem," Gu Ning said.
They chatted for a while longer, and Gu Ning suddenly said, "Shaoting, I need to tell you something serious."
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting became serious too.
"I met a mutant today," Gu Ning said.
She wouldn't keep it a secret from Leng Shaoting anymore ever since Leng Shaoting learned her secret.
"What? A mutant?" Leng Shaoting was surprised. "Are you alright?"
Leng Shaoting read many books about ghosts and monsters after he found out that they really existed. Although he hadn't seen a mutant with his own eyes yet, he believed Gu Ning.
A mutant was even harder than a ghost to be dealt with.
Leng Shaoting understood that Gu Ning had the help of the jiao, but he was still worried about her safety. She was his girlfriend after all.
