Splitting Paths

Five kilometers away from the busiest and liveliest area of Man Gu, Pattaya, Thailand.

In a small, inconspicuous motel where Lu Ting arrived in Thailand and immediately split up with Captain Price, Nikolai, Ghost, Soap, and Sandman right after getting off the plane, they gathered in the largest suite of this motel.

At this moment, Nikolai and Sandman were each stationed in front of two laptops. On their screens, one displayed real-time positioning transmitted by the tracking device implanted in Lu Ting, and the other showed ground surveillance footage of the front, rear, and side entrances of Splendor Club obtained by hacking into the camera network.

Splendor Club is one of the best clubs on this entire street in Pattaya.

Here, not only are there intoxicating nightlife scenes of bars and clubs that captivate both men and women, but you can also experience adrenaline-pumping gambling!

However, gambling isn't openly operated here. If you want to enter and experience it, there are specialists who will check your deposit accounts to see if you qualify.

Splendor Club was also Lu Ting's first stop upon arriving in Thailand.

When planning earlier, he had mentioned that if he were to head straight for the target destination on his first day in Thailand, it would be too easy for others to figure out his intentions.

Therefore, Lu Ting currently needed to portray himself as, no, Lu Ting now was simply a super-rich second-generation with plenty of money!

His sole purpose in coming to Thailand was to escape family constraints and have fun.

This trip was all about one thing: spending!

Since he was already in Thailand, it was natural to "experience" the nightlife culture here.

As Lu Ting stopped at the entrance of Splendor Club, Sandman in the small motel room saw his position clearly on the computer screen.

Beside him, Nikolai's computer screen showed the surveillance footage, at the same time capturing Lu Ting's flashy and cool sports car and the black SUV carrying Roach and Yuri following behind Lu Ting.

After checking the two surveillance screens, Captain Price spoke to Lu Ting, "Commander, once you enter the club, we will lose your surveillance feed, and there won't be much movement in your location unless you leave. Be careful."

"Don't worry, Captain Price!"

Sitting in the sports car, Lu Ting glanced at the shadowy figure of the Splendor Club's entrance outside the window, where a servant was already waiting to park his car. He said, "Right now, I'm just a young man coming in to spend, there's no danger."

According to Lu Ting's estimate, even if his lavish spending tonight caught the attention of those fraudulent kidnappers, they wouldn't easily act against him. He would probably just be put on their target list.

Clearly, these fraudulent kidnappers usually decide whether to act only after being prepared. How does that saying go again?

Oh, don't start a fight without being prepared!

Presumably, these fraudulent kidnappers are quite vigilant.

After hearing Lu Ting's response, Captain Price in the small motel didn't say much more. He trusted that the commander had his own assurance!

But for Roach and Yuri, he still reminded them, "Roach, Yuri, pay close attention to the people around the commander."

"Copy that!"

Roach and Yuri immediately responded.

However, judging from their tone, they seemed very excited about entering Splendor Club next?

Their impatience couldn't be hidden!

In reality, indeed, probably no one could not be interested in the dazzling and luxurious environment of Splendor Club.

But, interested in the end, they must also be doing what the commander instructed them to do and playing the essential role of being his bodyguards!

Otherwise, if they mess up the commander's plan, the punishment they will face won't just be as simple as a deduction in salary!

At this moment,

In the hidden earpieces of Roach and Yuri, Soap's sour pleading voice came through: "Commander, I'm really begging you!"

"Next time something like this happens, could you take me along?"

Previously, in the meeting room, he had mocked Roach and Yuri loudly. Now, sitting in front of the computer and watching the surveillance footage of the road, Soap, who saw many beautiful women entering and leaving Splendor Club, felt quite sour!

If he had known it was such a good opportunity, Soap would have definitely volunteered first!

Even if it's just for show, pretending to be cool and wearing sunglasses next to the commander, who would notice what you're staring at?

It's also good to feast your eyes!

Alas!

What a pity! Too bad!

"Don't sigh."

Next to him, Nikolai patted Soap's shoulder with a very amused expression and comforted him, "Maybe the 'beauties' they see inside are just like us!"

Before coming here, Nikolai had researched that, besides its outstanding nightlife and gambling industry, Thailand is also known for its significant production of ladyboys.

As soon as the words fell, Soap, who was still melancholic, suddenly froze. He turned to Nikolai, widened his eyes, and asked, "Is it true?"

Upon hearing this, Nikolai didn't answer him directly. Instead, he silently searched for ladyboys in Thailand on his phone and then showed it to Soap.

After staring at the phone screen for two seconds, Soap's face immediately showed a disgusted expression, and he couldn't help but curse, "Damn."

Well, he's not feeling sour anymore!

Roach: "."

Yuri: "."

Nikolai and Soap's unabashed conversation successfully silenced Roach and Yuri.

Can't you guys wait until we're inside to talk about this?

Now, how can we appreciate the 'scenery' properly?!

"Haha."

Only Lu Ting laughed a couple of times like nothing was wrong and said, "This is just a cultural aspect of their tourism industry."

"Alright, stop arguing and focus on the task!"

As soon as he removed the hidden earpiece that wouldn't be used later, Lu Ting opened the door of the sports car and got out.

After getting out of this sports car, Lu Ting was no longer called Lu Ting, but Zhao Chen, the new identity forged by the International Criminal Police Organization of China!

Behind him, Roach and Yuri, in the black SUV, upon receiving Lu Ting's command to start moving, also quickly got out of the car.
