Under the veil of night.
Gonzalez City Airport.
Three men donning duckbill caps and carrying suitcases walked out of the airport.
Their skin was dark, their faces full of beards, to the unknowing, they might seem like friends from Africa.
After leaving the airport, they hopped into a taxi and headed straight for downtown Gonzalez City.
"Where are you guys from?"
It was so dark, the driver could only make out three blurred figures through the rearview mirror.
It was kind of creepy.
But they offered a high price, paying upfront five hundred yuan.
Under normal circumstances, the driver might have looked for other passengers to share the ride.
After all, there is a distance from the airport to downtown, and the flow of passengers is quite heavy.
In a coastal city, whether returning from overseas or setting sail from here, most people have to transit through the airport.
But for five hundred yuan, why would the driver bother sharing the ride?
