Chapter 320: Effortless Scouting
Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko
Watching the back of the two people leaving, Yang Ming broke into a bitter smile. Is it true that Old Tian is doing this seriously? Itâs just that it is w.a.n.g Xue. If we went out to play together in the future, w.a.n.g Xue would bring Zhou Jiajia, while Old Tian brings me along⊠This wonât be fun!
Yang Ming shook his head and prepared to ask Tian Donghua exactly what happened in the evening. Didnât this guy take a fancy to Zhou Jiajia? How come it changed to w.a.n.g Xue? Wasnât this change too big?
At the moment, Yang Ming had something else to do. He didnât have the spare time to bother about the matter with Tian Donghua.
The temporary headquarter of the Four Snakes Gang in Song Jiang was located in a car repair factory in the north of the city. It was the property of Yu Xiangde, which was now being requisitioned by Brother Snake. Why did they use a repair factory? Because the repair factory had an independent large yard. It seemed to be relatively empty, which was conducive for his underlings to patrol.
Based on the information provided by Hou Zhenhan in advance, Yang Ming drove to the vicinity of the repair factory. Then, he got out of his car and released the air in one of the rear tires. Then, he went back to his car and drove the car to the front of the repair factory. He must first survey the situation inside the repair factory.
âWhatâs your business?â A patrolling young underling saw Yang Mingâs car parked at the door of the repair factory, so he asked.
âMan, my rear tire has no air. Can you inflate it?â Yang Ming said.
âInflate it? No. We are closed. You can find another workshop.â The young underling directly refused. It was a critical period now, and the repair factory had been closed for several days.
âBuddy, help me out. How long does it take to inflate a tire?â Yang Ming said with a smile.
âNo. I told you that we are closed!â The young underling waved his hand and said, âHurry up and go.â
âSorry, buddy. My car definitely isnât going to go. As you can see, the rear tire is already like thatâŠâ Yang Ming got out the car and pointed to the car tire behind him.
âThat wonât do. Please bear with us and drive away.â The young underling said impatiently. If it werenât for fear of causing unnecessary trouble, this young underling would have already starting cussing.
âMan, I have to go for a long distance drive tonight⊠Itâs already quite late, and I canât find a place to inflate it.â Yang Ming said, he took out two hundred dollars that he prepared in advance from his pocket and stuffed it to him, âHelp me out, buddy!â
â Oh ?â The young underling took the money that Yang Ming handed to him. With a hard grip, there were actually two hundred! The young underlingâs heart was immediately excited. He could earn two hundred yuan by pumping air into the tire. What an easy job!
âAlright, drive in!â The young underling opened the roadblock and let Yang Ming go.
âThank you, buddy!â Yang Ming said as he got into the car. He started the car and drove into the repair factory.
âOkay! Just stop here!â The young underling pointed to a parking area and said, âYou wait for me. I will get you an air pump!â
âOkay!â Yang Ming nodded.
âShun Zi, who is this person?â A big muscular man saw Yang Mingâs car and came over.
âOld Qi, this is the person on the side of Brother De. His car tire is out of air so he came here to pump up some air!â As he took advantage of Yang Ming, this little brother called Shun Zi naturally lied for him.
âOh, then hurry it up!â Old Qi obviously had no doubts. He nodded, then he turned around and left.
After Shun Zi and Old Qi left, Yang Ming began to look at the environment inside the repair factory. Certainly, as Hou Zhenhan said, there was a younger underling guarding every pa.s.sage.
However, these young underlings were obviously very sloppy in an unperturbed state. If I grasped it well enough, there was an opportunity for him. Just where can Brother Snake be?
There are two buildings in the repair factory. One was the repair workshop. It was obviously impossible for Brother Snake to live in this place! The other building was the staff quarters. Brother Snake most likely would be living there.
Yang Ming looked at the staff quarters. There was no other protective measure besides the young underlings at the door. If I climbed the wall, I should be able to enter. However, I donât know if I can escape the sight of the people below me during that time.
As Yang Ming was contemplating, Shun Zi ran back. Yang Ming saw that he didnât bring the air pump in his hand, so he asked, puzzled, âBuddy, where is the air pump?â
â Oh , I told another guy to bring it. He will be here right away!â Shun Zi asked, âWhich tire?â
âThis!â Yang Ming kicked the rear tire that he deflated himself.
Of course, not long after, Yang Ming saw another young man run over with an air pump.
âXiao Kou, did you alert ⊠Boss Snake?â Shun Zi asked with some worry.
âDonât worry. The bossâ room is upstairs. I didnât make a sound!â Xiao Kou nodded and said.
Although the voices of the two people were quite low like mosquitoes buzzing, Yang Mingâs eyesight was so good that these words didnât escape him!
In fact, Shun Zi had already spilled the beans while the reply by the young man, Xiao Kou, was even more detailed! Yang Ming was ninety percent certain that Brother Snake resided at the second-floor of the repair factory!
Yang Mingâs heart was shocked. He was almost bluffed by Brother Snake! It seemed that this Brother Snake was extraordinarily careful. He preferred to live in the workshop of the repair factory rather than the staff quarters! He might also be afraid that Bao Sanli would send someone to kill him!
Yang Ming quickly took advantage of the free time when Shun Zi pumped air into his car tire. He observed the repair workshop! It was much easier to infiltrate the repair workshop than the staff quarters! Above the repair factory was a vocational school. Most probably it was jointly organized with the repair factory!
If I infiltrate the repair workshop of the repair factory from the school side, it shouldnât be difficult!
In order to ensure that Brother Snake was really there, Yang Ming decided to scout again. Therefore, Yang Ming started walking toward the workshop in the repair factory.
â Hey , where are you going?â Shun Zi was shocked and quickly stopped Yang Ming.
âI want to go to the toilet! I drank too much, and itâs killing me to hold it in!â Yang Ming said casually.
âDonât go there! There is no toilet there!â Shun Zi said in a hurry.
â Oh ? No way? Isnât there a toilet in the workshop?â Yang Ming asked, confused.
â Oh ⊠this is the case. The toilet is clogged. It hasnât been repaired, so it is closed now. You may go to the toilet over there!â Shun Zi quickly explained, âThere is a staff quarter. I will take you there!â
â Oh ? Itâs so troublesome. Then, forget it. I will go out and find a place where no one can see to finish my business!â Yang Ming pretended to be lazy. He shook his head and said.
âThat works as well.â Shun Zi definitely hoped so!
After the conversation, Yang Ming was a hundred percent confident this time. Brother Snake must be living in the workshop of the repair factory! With this in mind, Yang Ming wonât have to continue staying here.
After pumping the air in Yang Mingâs car tire, Shun Zi took the initiative to help him pump up the air of the other tires. Then, he said, âOkay, no problem!â
âThank you, buddy, then I am leaving.â Yang Ming nodded and didnât stay any longer. He directly drove the car out and left the repair factory.
âBrother Shun, you said youâd give me fifty yuan?â After Yang Ming left, Xiao Kou immediately asked.
âThere is no cutting short for you!â Shun Zi took out a stack of money from his pocket. He took four ten yuan banknotes from the middle and handed it to Xiao Kou, âThereâs no small change. It will be forty!â
âYou can give me the one hundred yuan banknote and I can give you changeâŠâ Xiao Kou was unsatisfied.
âDo you want it or not?â Shun Zi said with a glare.
âI want it!â Xiao Kou had reluctantly taken the forty yuan. Isnât it better than nothing? But then again, this business belonged to Shun Zi. However, he couldnât find the air pump, so I helped him with the effort. It was not bad to earn forty!
During Yang Mingâs journey back to the university, he was amused while he was driving. It was settled with merely two hundred yuan? Werenât the underlings of Brother Snake too greedy? Most probably Brother Snake never dreamed about being sold out for two hundred yuan, even though it was unintentional.
This tight-fitting suit of mine doesnât seem to be of any use. I wore it for no reason. Yang Ming shook his head with amus.e.m.e.nt. He really overestimated the strength of the opponentâs side! The previous failure taught Yang Ming a painful lesson that he had to be careful.
But then again, the opponents he faced in the previous failure were also very different from this one! The two men were trained a.s.sa.s.sins. Although he was the successor for the King of a.s.sa.s.sins, he only studied for a few months. He lacked practical experience which allowed them to run away. Today, these people were different. These people were all gangsters. They didnât have any scheme at all, and so they were easily outwitted without much effort.
âHow come youâre back so soon?â As Yang Ming entered the house, Zhang Bing asked confusedly, âDid you go home?â
âI just took something. I didnât do anything else!â Yang Ming said with a smile, â Oh ya , your tire was out of air. I have pumped some air into it.â
âOk! Oh ya , Yang Ming, come over and take a look. Old Tianâs new girlfriend, give me your opinion!â Zhang Bing pointed to the phone screen in his hand.
