Chapter 197: Are you coming? Still not here?
“Lao Dao is…” Wu Chen paused for a moment, then smiled and said, “I’m not sure.”
He was mysterious and didn’t like to talk too much.
“I haven’t seen him yet, how can I be sure?” Wu Chen replied with a faint smile.
“Okay…” Li Ruobing didn’t ask any more questions. She could vaguely hear the loud “wind noise” from Wu Chen’s side. It wasn’t that the car windows were open, but the speed of the car was too fast, so there was such a clear wind noise, “Concentrate on driving first.”
“Okay,” Wu Chen said.
After hanging up, Wu Chen stepped on the accelerator again. The car speed increased again, he was already over the speed limit! But it’s not a big problem, all violations would be dealt with by Wang Zhuangyuan. He could drive as he pleased, as long as there was no accident.
The green light ahead, the Lamborghini zoomed across the intersection…
In fact, Wu Chen was taking a detour.
It’s less than three o’clock in the afternoon, so it’s not the rush hour. But in a developed city like Donghai, there were a lot of cars on the road, and there would definitely be traffic jams during peak hours. If it’s not peak hours, and it’s not easy to drive too fast.
Wu Chen wanted to ensure the speed of the car, so he had to make a detour and choose a road with less traffic!
He knew Donghai so well!
In this way, he could reach the destination earlier!
Thirty minutes later…
Double Bridge in Xicheng District…
Shuangqiao was an informal place name. It originally refers to two bridges across the river not far from each other. They were both old bridges built in the 1970s and 1980s. The name of an area in the city!
Even the bus station here was called Shuangqiao Station.
The area of Shuangqiao, in terms of the current Eastern Sea, was naturally considered an old city, and it was not considered the main city of the Eastern Sea any earlier. With the beginning of urbanization in the new century, the area of the main city expanded, and it was allocated to Xicheng District.
It was a very remote place, far from the city center.
Double bridge…
Xinmin 2nd Street, Baoan Lane…
Wu Chen parked his blue Lamborghini on the side of the alley, then took off his suit jacket, threw it on the passenger seat, and tidied up his white shirt before getting out of the car and walking into the alley.
The alley was not narrow, so it was not a problem parking on the side. In addition, it was winding and not straight, so few cars would go here.
And because there were many small shops on both sides of the alley, all of which were facing the street, small restaurants, clothing stores, hardware stores, small stalls, duck neck sellers, there were many people coming and going. It was very difficult for cars to go here, since they would be blocked.
This was a very lively place. When you walk into Baoan Lane, you would have the feeling of coming to the snack street in the downtown area of a small city. In fact, it was not that exaggerated. It not only sold food, but also sold everything else. However, it was only because there were so many rental houses in this place and the number of migrants increased that a kind of “prosperity” gradually formed.
Almost every city had this kind of place, far from the city center, but very lively.
Wu Chen walked further and further into the alley.
At this time, there were quite a few people who came here to shop, but it was far from crowded.
When passing by a small shop with a sign saying “clearance sale, 10% off on site”, Wu Chen turned his head and took a look. He walked in.
This was a small shop that sold clothes, and they were all the cheap ones. One hundred yuan could buy two pairs of trousers, as well as various off-size shoes, known as the last order in foreign trade.
As far as Wu Chen knew, this store had been “clearing out goods” since the day it opened, it’s just a gimmick to sell things.
Wu Chen went in for two minutes and then came out.
He bought a white peaked cap. Although the peaked cap didn’t match well with a suit.
Wu Chen didn’t wear a suit jacket, but a white shirt. Putting on a peaked cap again, the whole person’s feeling changed, a very young and bright feeling!
Continue to walk into the alley.
Wu Chen walked through the entire alley, from the east end to the west end, to the other end of Baoan Lane.
He was almost able to see the main road on the other end, which was Xinmin 3rd Street.
He turned left.
There were many forks in Baoan Lane, and there were seven-storey old buildings walking in, and more than half of the houses were rented out.
This was the last fork.
Wu Chen walked in.
In fact, Wu Chen could enter Baoan Lane from Xinmin 3rd Street and enter the alley from the west alley. It was naturally closer to enter this fork, and there was no need to go through the entire alley, but Wu Chen just took a detour. Outside the entrance of the alley, it was very likely that the Lao Dao upstairs would see through the rear window.
The blue Lamborghini Wu Chen drove, of course Lao Dao knew about it.
And from that private hospital to here… Lao Dao should have come in from the west alley, so there was absolutely no way for him to go far.
Not far into the fork, Wu Chen stopped in front of the unit door of an old building.
Holding the brim of his cap, he looked up at the old building… it was this building! According to the results of Wu Chen’s investigation during the millennium reincarnation, Ding Ruilong prepared some houses for his subordinates to escape in the Eastern Sea.
It was similar to “Safe House”.
The difference was that the safe house was not safe. If something serious was committed, the police would be able to find it sooner or later based on the current surveillance intensity. Therefore, these houses similar to the safe house were only used for temporary accommodation. And prepared some things needed for the “fugitive” to escape.
There were a few places like this in the Eastern Sea, all of which were the most confidential, and some that were not so secret…
Naturally, they were places that Ding Ruilong’s people in the Eastern Sea could provide.
While the places were few, the possibilities were many.
But Wu Chen still felt that Lao Dao might come here directly.
Because here was the only “safe house” that was prepared before but never used! Several other sites, though undiscovered, had been used in the preceding four years.
Only here had never been used. It was the safest and most confidential!
This time, Jiang Chuan invited Lao Dao to come over to handle errands, because Lao Dao’s identity was very special.
He could even be regarded as a top killer invited from abroad. In terms of personality, it was very possible!
In the entire Eastern Sea at present, apart from Jiang Chuan who already left, the only one who knew this place was Lao Dao.
Those who work with Lao Dao were all young people. If something happened, they would run away separately and would not come here. The consequences of their arrest would be much smaller!
Everything was Wu Chen’s inference.
He still needed to verify.
Wu Chen entered the unit door and went upstairs.
The corridor was very dark, and there was a dirty feeling everywhere. There were various small advertisement stickers on the walls, and there were cigarette butts on the ground. Wu Chen’s footsteps were very light, with almost no sound. Soon, he reached the fifth floor and stopped in front of door 501.
This was the one. The owner of this suite was a native of Donghai, but in fact the owner behind it was Ding Ruilong! Ding Ruilong ordered Jiang Chuan, and Jiang Chuan arranged for someone to buy it three years ago.
Wu Chen stopped for a while, then turned his head to look at the electric meter box on the wall.
He raised his hand to feel the gap between the meter box and the wall, and he frowned suddenly, because… the key was still there!
It’s the key to Room 501!
If someone came here, the key must not be there!
Lao Dao didn’t come here?!
Wu Chen frowned as he thought about it, and immediately thought of another possibility, it wasn’t that he didn’t come… but that he hadn’t come yet! He was still on the way! He was so badly injured, and he was wearing a hospital gown, so he must have to find a way to change on the way, and he had to hide from the people arranged by Li Ruotai, so he might come fast or he might not!
Wu Chen thought about it and took out the key.
Whether Lao Dao was not coming or not yet, he could verify it as long as he entered the house! He would know if you have prepared something in advance.
Wu Chen took the key to opened the door.
At this time.
Bang bang bang!
There were very heavy footsteps downstairs, and there was a sense of confusion, as if walking unsteadily but also in a hurry.
Someone came upstairs.
