Chapter 659: Waiting for the Rabbit

Xu Sheng remained silent.

His reason told him that any protest would be dangerous.

He knew exactly who the other party was.

To be honest, he wished the other party dead a million times...

I guess there are many, many people who feel the same way as him.

In fact, the number of people who want Zhang Yong dead could fill the Huangpu River. It would always be full, just like the sea outside.

The problem is...

Zhang Yong is still alive. He's alive and well.

He's alive and kicking. Not a hair has been lost. It's beyond comprehension. It's nothing short of a miracle.

Why hasn't someone stabbed him?

Why hasn't someone shot him?

In fact, Zhang Yong has been wounded before. By a gunshot wound, too. But Xu Sheng doesn't know that.

'Give me the car.'

'What did you say?'

'I want your car. I like the Steppenwolf brand.'

'You...'

Xu Sheng was at a loss for words. But he didn't dare refuse.

Zhang Yong had already taken control of the car. How could he possibly get it back? It was only a gift.

'And...'

'What else?'

Xu Sheng's heart was pounding. He was afraid that Zhang Yong would make some outrageous request.

Now, whenever Zhang Yong opened his mouth, Xu Sheng felt like he was suffocating.

And then...

Zhang Yong shook his head and said, 'Forget it.'

Xu Sheng: ?

What's going on?

Can you just tell me everything?

You're not being straightforward. I'm on edge, okay?

God knows if you're thinking about me again.

In fact, Zhang Yong wanted to ask how much the Steampunk bike cost and how to buy it. But then he thought, why bother?

Even if he could, he wouldn't be able to afford it. He couldn't possibly afford to buy it himself. Not even if it were a few thousand dollars. Wouldn't it be faster to just rob a spy?

And you don't have to pay for it yourself.

Right now, he's still very poor. He's still in the start-up phase. He has to be thrifty and hardworking. He'd hate to split a gold bar in two...

'It's fine. You can go now!' Zhang Yong said again.

Then he got into the car.

He got into Xu Sheng's car.

Xu Sheng???

No. You took my car? Then I...

I dare not say anything. Suddenly, he saw Zhang Yong looking back at him. He hastily forced a wan smile.

'Yes. Within a month!' Zhang Yong reminded him.

'I...' Xu Sheng wanted to say something, but in the end, a thousand words were reduced to two: 'Yes.'

He dared not say more.

Otherwise, he would definitely be dragged into an alley and beaten up.

It would be a waste of effort to beat him up. In the end, he would still have to pay the money.

4,000 yuan per month. He gritted his teeth and could afford it. Why make things difficult for yourself?

What if the other person didn't know when to stop and killed him...

That would be a tragedy.

Xu Sheng cherished his current life.

He was now the owner of Wanfeng Freight. He was rich and powerful.

Except for the trouble with Zhang Yong, everything else has been smooth sailing. Zhang Yong, just consider it a misfortune that has cost him money. Bad luck.

'Ahem!'

'Ahem!'

Li Yuanqing coughed next to him.

Zhang Yong glanced at him askance. Then he nodded.

'I've forgotten you.'

'What for?'

'I've forgotten you're a constable in the concession. You must know all about the pretty girls in the concession.'

'I have something to do. I'm leaving.'

Li Yuanqing decisively withdrew, to avoid continuing the absurdity with Zhang Yong.

This guy is really shameless. Fortunately, he didn't join the organisation. Otherwise, I would have to recite 80 punishments a day.

Zhang Yong: ...

Hey, don't go!

I want a list of the beauties. It's not you...

Really. It's me who's being absurd. Why are you angry!

He turned to look at Xu Sheng.

He noticed that Xu Sheng was peeking at him.

He glared at him.

Xu Sheng quickly looked down. He quickly wrote the names.

He finished quickly. He handed it to Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong took it. Huh? There seem to be quite a few. There are more than a dozen.

There's Ruan Lingyu, Zhou Xuan, Hu Die, Xu Lai...

Haha. Sure enough, some of them match my memory. It seems that the world still respects historical facts.

The first two are movie stars. They all had big shots behind them as their financiers.

Hu Die seems to have been related to Boss Dai?

Xu Lai, on the other hand, is familiar. The wife of life winner Tang Shengming.

These beauties are just for Zhang Yong to look at.

His purpose in asking for this list is to see who the bigwigs behind them are.

Which bigwigs can be moved.

For example, Du Yuesheng, Huang Jinrong. Or Zhang Xiaolin.

Aim at the right target.

Get twice the result with half the effort.

The person who killed Du Yuesheng must not be passive!

You have to take the initiative.

Since he's already killed the guy, it's only natural to rob him a bit more, right?

'Did you write everything down?'

'Yes, I wrote everything down.'

'Okay, you can go now!'

'Okay, okay.'

Xu Sheng hurriedly took his leave.

He was afraid that Zhang Yong would call him back and that something strange would happen again.

He was holding his breath.

He let out a sigh of relief only after he was out of Zhang Yong's sight.

Thank you, Amaterasu!

He finally got rid of the demon Zhang Yong.

Although the losses were heavy. But after all, his own life was saved.

Fortunately. Fortunately.

As long as one is alive, there is still hope.

Seeing a phone nearby, he hurriedly called his men to pick it up.

After thinking for a while, he dialed another number.

'You said, Zhang Yong?'

'Yes, it's Zhang Yong from the Special Branch of the Restoration Society.'

'He asked for a list of beautiful women?'

'Yes.'

'What names did you write?'

'I wrote...'

Xu Sheng told the other person everything.

The other person pondered for a moment, then said slowly, 'Okay, I understand.'

And hung up.

Xu Sheng put down the receiver, looked around, and quickly left.

'This guy...'

'Is he flirting?'

On a rooftop in the distance, Zhang Yong put down his binoculars.

Xu Sheng had made two phone calls. He didn't know who he was calling. But this guy should be able to get the list of beauties out.

Haha. The other party was even more anxious than Zhang Yong had imagined. And even more proactive.

A list has caused a bloodbath...

Turn around.

Go downstairs.

Get in the car.

Go back to Jianhu Xiaozhu.

Rest.

No outsiders. And no outsiders came to see him. The main one is a stranger, a barrier.

In the evening, Jianhu Xiaozhu was quiet.

Zhang Yong got up and held up his binoculars to observe. He found that the other two places had long been deserted.

Well, they are all people.

They are all here to put on an appearance. They check in, and then immediately disappear.

The glamorous world of Shanghai, the nightlife is so rich. Who wants to stay in this hellhole.

Zhang Yong also wants to go out and fool around. Unfortunately, he dares not.

His current subordinates are all a bunch of bald and strong men with little interest in anything.

They don't eat meat. They don't like women. They all look like ascetics.

He, Zhang Yong, dares not go too far.

And he reckoned that they would not follow him to the nightclub to fool around.

In other words, without sufficient personnel protection, he might not know how he died.

After weighing the pros and cons, his own life was still more important.

The next morning, he got up and had breakfast at Jianhu Xiaozhu. He found that there was no one else there.

Sure enough, the other two departments had already buggered off.

Never mind. Other people would bugger off the others. Zhang Yong continued to stay behind. After all, he was not going to pay for the accommodation.

This is a joint investigation team. Of course it's the joint investigation team that pays.

Out of your own pocket?

Haha. Do you want the bullet?

After breakfast, they drove to Citibank.

Jin Sanyan had another sum of money deposited in Citibank. He needed to withdraw it.

No, to be precise, he needed to change the name. He needed to turn Jin Sanyan's money into his, Zhang Yong's.

There were restrictions on entering the concession area. They could only bring ten people.

After some manoeuvring, they successfully entered the concession. They went straight to Citibank.

This place was still relatively safe. They told the others to wait outside.

They entered the lobby alone.

Suddenly, their eyes lit up.

They were surprised.

They were happy.

They couldn't believe it for a moment.

They subconsciously rubbed their eyes.

Yes.

It was her!

It really was Gu Xiaoru!

She had actually come back to work! Hey! She had actually come back to work!

So that's why I haven't heard from her for so long. It turns out that someone else has come back and is working seriously.

A little delicate beauty.

Graceful and delicate.

It really is her, Gu Xiaoru!

In a little grey suit, she is just his favourite template of a beautiful girl.

Cute.

Obedient.

Well, he hurriedly walked over quickly. A smile on his face. From the heart. His own woman.

At least, that's what he thinks.

Gu Xiaoru also saw him. The corners of her pretty mouth rose slightly. A smile. A faint smile. A polite greeting: 'Team Leader Zhang, long time no see. What business do you have?'

'I want to do you,' Zhang Yong whispered.

'Sorry. During working hours, we do not provide services outside the scope of our business!' Gu Xiaoru smiled sweetly. The corners of her eyes were full of spring.

'What about after work?'

'That depends on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, it's possible...'

'Look at this.'

Zhang Yong took out a stack of US dollars.

He must be in a good mood. When you're in a good mood, you can provide good service.

However, Gu Xiaoru gently pushed him away.

'No.'

'Why?'

'I still have a lot.'

'Then...'

'Wait for me after work.'

'Okay.'

Zhang Yong was secretly delighted.

Life has hope!

Seeing someone approaching, he took out the evidence of Jin Sanyan's confession. He got down to business.

'Transfer all the money in his name to mine.'

'Please come over here.'

Gu Xiaoru began to handle the business.

Zhang Yong did not disturb her. He silently looked around.

Suddenly, a figure entered Zhang Yong's line of sight.

Vaguely, Zhang Yong seemed to be somewhat familiar. But he couldn't remember who it was. He paid close attention.

The target came to the counter. Another counter lady approached to deal with it. Soon after, Zhang Yong heard the counter lady say, 'Is this Mr. Wang Jichang?'

He immediately pricked up his ears.

Wang Jichang?

The Japanese who pretended to be Wang Jingwei's younger brother?

He sent someone here to do business?

Interesting. Maybe he can make a profit.

Wang Jichang is a Japanese invader. Wang Jingwei is a traitor. Their money must be ill-gotten gains.

Since it is ill-gotten gains, of course it must be confiscated. It will be returned to the state.

Before it is paid into the national treasury, he will temporarily take custody of it.

'Follow me!'

At this point, Gu Xiaoru stood up.

Zhang Yong nodded. He followed Gu Xiaoru inside and prepared to withdraw the safe.

At this point, the person Wang Jichang had sent also quickly completed the formalities and followed Zhang Yong in. He seemed to be a regular customer. He was very familiar with the place.

Zhang Yong's mind twitched. He deliberately slowed down his pace. He waited for his target to come up. Then, pretending to look a little puzzled, he said, 'Brother, are you from Hangzhou? I seem to have seen you in Hangzhou.'

'You are...' The target looked at Zhang Yong suspiciously.

'Didn't you work at the Hangzhou riverside pier?'

'Yes...'

'No wonder. I told you you looked familiar.'

'You are...'

'Oh, my name is Zhang Sanduo. I'm also from Hangzhou. But I've been making a living in Shanghai for the past ten years. After you.'

'Oh...'

The target responded vaguely, confused. He hurriedly went inside.

He was there to help his boss with some business. He didn't have time to chat with Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong could tell that the other person was in a hurry, so he immediately understood and let the other person go in first.

Gu Xiaoru gave Zhang Yong a meaningful look.

She naturally knew Zhang Yong's little secret thoughts. But she wouldn't say anything.

The man leads, the woman follows!

"You go take care of your own business. I don't get off work until 6pm.'

'Okay,'

Zhang Yong nodded. He said goodbye and left.

What for?

Of course, to prepare outside.

In a while, the target will come out. Immediately, he will be served. Then he will leave.

The target comes empty-handed. The task must be to withdraw the safe. Maybe the whole safe will be taken away. Or maybe some of the money inside will be taken away.

So...

Wait for the right opportunity. You will get something.

Go out.

Find that there is actually no one else outside the main door.

Doubt.

This Wang Jichang, just sent one person alone to withdraw money?

It feels a bit wrong. So carefully examine the map. Don't find anything unusual. Apart from the guards at the bank, there are no other weapon signs in the vicinity of his Zhang Yong's men.

Oh, that's not right. There are some in the distance. They are the patrol police. And there are soldiers from various countries stationed in the concession.

The concession is quite large. But a radius of 450 metres covers almost a fifth of the area. So there are a lot of weapons and gold symbols on the map. There are also a lot of small red dots. They need to be carefully identified.

He waves his hand. He indicates to Lu Hai and the others to follow him.

Zhang Yong has marked the target. He is keeping a close eye on it.

Sure enough, ten minutes later, the target comes out. But, surprisingly, he is still empty-handed.

There is no safe. There is no handbag.

There is nothing.

Unless he had everything on him.

Otherwise...

Zhang Yong was not discouraged.

It was just dinner time, and it was normal to miss the mark sometimes.

Just catch the guy first.

However...

The target actually came by tram. Getting ready to board.

Well, he can't even afford a rickshaw. It feels like it's over. For a moment, Zhang Yong hesitated.

Should he follow or not?

Just then, a few weapon symbols at the edge of the map gradually moved over.

Zhang Yong's mind twitched.

Who are these people?

It feels like they're moving closer to me?

Immediately, he raised his guard.

Hiding in the shadows, he silently monitored the situation. He was ready for a firefight.

It turned out that the target soon reunited with those weapon symbols. Obviously, they were in the same gang. Then, they all moved towards Citibank.

This is...

Zhang Yong continued to wonder.

He couldn't make sense of it. He could only silently observe.

Soon, a group of people appeared in the telescope. There were a total of eight people.

All armed. Judging by the silhouettes, they are carrying pistols.

Two cars. Chevrolet.

Wang Jichang's men?

What are they doing?

The two cars pull up in front of the Citibank.

Two men get out. But there are no more signs of weapons. They have obviously put the pistols away.

Entering Citibank with weapons could cause misunderstandings.

Especially if you go inside to do business with the safe deposit box, you will be searched. Weapons are strictly prohibited.

The guards inside are Americans. If you mess around, the guards will really shoot. Then you'll die for nothing. If you force your way into an American bank and get killed, who will stand up for you? And then you'll have to deny your identity. Disassociate yourself from it. So that the Americans don't pursue it. No one is unaware of the attitude of the Wei Zu towards foreigners.

Zhang Yong looked at it for a while and finally understood.

The person who came before was actually here to scout the place out. To check if there were any irregularities.

The seven people who came later were the ones responsible for taking the stuff.

So careful?

Is it a big treasure they're going to take?

Zhang Yong silently assessed the stuff in his hands. And the number of people.

He only had ten people now. The other side had eight. He was not in a dominant position in terms of numbers. If they went head-to-head, Zhang Yong would only have to hide.

What should he do?

Zhang Yong couldn't help but rack his brains.

Many thoughts raced through his mind. None of them turned out to be useful.

This group of people is obviously very cautious. They are so cautious that they sent someone in advance to reconnoitre. To observe the movements around. It can be seen that their vigilance is very high.

The usual methods would not work on them.

There were eight of them. At least eight guns. If they fought head-on, his side would definitely lose two or three men.

The losses would outweigh the gains.

Li Yunlong had said that this was not how battles were fought.

In a hurry, he saw the two men carrying a safe out. They were indeed withdrawing a safe.

Zhang Yong's eyebrows immediately rose.

Business is here!

Get ready to work!
