Chapter 333: How is it Lin Chuan?
Three days later.
The night sky hung low over the Anling River as dark boats floated amidst the vast darkness. A chilling evening breeze brushed through, the surrounding mountains casting vague silhouettes in the twilight.
A gust of wind swept by; clouds in the sky obscured the full moon as dim yellow streetlights cast mottled, swaying shadows of greenery. A car sped past, its roaring engine breaking the silence yet carrying a hint of killing intent, instantly permeating throughout Anling City. Stay connected via My Virtual Library Empire
Seated in the car were Big Tiger, Xiaoyang, and Yao Jie.
These past few days, they had been moving continuously, lying low and waiting.
Finally, tonight, they received instructions from Chairman Zhao.
— "Assemble."
In the instructions, Chairman Zhao explicitly stated they would act tonight, having already dispatched elite reinforcements.
The meeting point was a kilometer east of the 720 Company at a knitting factory.
"This knitting factory is also our property, primarily used to influence the surroundings. Many messages from the 720 Company come from this factory," Big Tiger said, smiling.
Yao Jie nodded. "Finally, it's time to act!"
"Chairman Zhao personally prepared the plan and will command it. Don't you think we've been a little slow in acting?" Xiaoyang expressed some concern.
Big Tiger waved his hand dismissively. "You don't understand Chairman Zhao. As long as we succeed, he won't forget our contribution!"
Xiaoyang then relaxed.
Big Tiger continued, smiling proudly, "You don't know, but there's another reason."
"What's the reason, boss?" Xiaoyang raised his eyebrows.
"Your current positions are too low to access the group's insider news. Even I only heard about it," Big Tiger started explaining. "Recently, Chairman Zhao got hold of a top-level hacker, world-class!"
"Is he as good as Lin Chuan?" Yao Jie immediately asked.
Xiaoyang also turned to look at Big Tiger.
Big Tiger grinned. "From what Chairman Zhao has said, he's more than a match."
Yao Jie's eyes widened. "He's that impressive, and he joined our group?"
"To be honest, I also find it suspicious. He's only been with the Baisheng Group for a month. Guess what position he holds now?" Big Tiger asked, looking at them both.
"He's not already at the same level as you, boss?" Xiaoyang asked, visibly shocked.
Big Tiger laughed self-deprecatingly. "You think too highly of your boss. That guy has already climbed to the core level, now in charge of network security and infrastructure."
Hisss!
Both Xiaoyang and Yao Jie widened their eyes, sucking in a breath of cold air, not daring to speak further for fear of angering Big Tiger.
"Say what you want," Big Tiger glanced at them.
Xiaoyang swallowed. "Could it be some trick, or maybe, that person is cheating?"
"I didn't believe it either, but Chairman Zhao said that he had clashed with Lin Chuan several times, especially in the last two instances. He completely suppressed Lin Chuan and even breached the firewall of the 720 Company," Big Tiger said thoughtfully.
"He's not cheating, is he?" Yao Jie blurted out an unrealistic guess.
"Forget about him; we're almost at the knitting factory. We'll soon meet the people Chairman Zhao sent, and then it's straight to the 720 Company, capturing Lin Chuan and leaving the country," Big Tiger said.
"Great!"
Both Xiaoyang and Yao Jie nodded vigorously.
The shadows of the trees on the roadside retreated, and under the dim street lights, Big Tiger's car slowly approached the knitting factory.
The black car turned left and right, stopping in an alley.
Big Tiger got out.
He turned around, looked toward the direction of Zhongcheng Building.
That was the location of the 720 Company.
Big Tiger also knew from Chairman Zhao's information that Lin Chuan would be at the 720 Network Security Company tonight to fix his firewall.
This opportunity was created by the world-class hacker they were discussing earlier.
Because the hacker had led a team to infiltrate Lin Chuan's company and caused extensive damage.
"Lin Chuan, just wait."
Big Tiger withdrew his gaze, his voice cold.
He had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Planning so much, every time they were about to act, various situations would arise. Now, with remote command from Chairman Zhao and the elite that Zhao had sent, they were sure to succeed tonight!
So thought Big Tiger.
Besides Big Tiger, Xiaoyang, and Yao Jie, there were four other confidants of Big Tiger.
Chairman Zhao specifically instructed for confidentiality, this operation did not require too many personnel.
Lin Chuan was just one person, after all.
"Boss."
Xiaoyang saw Big Tiger halting and gently called out to him.
Big Tiger snapped back to reality and began walking forward.
The entrance to the knitting factory was just ahead in a small alley. At this moment, the seven of them kept a low profile, even their footsteps quiet.
The knitting factory door partially opened.
Big Tiger gently pushed the door and walked in. Two people were standing guard inside.
The indoor lights were very bright.
Big Tiger and Xiaoyang looked at these two, their hearts stirring slightly.
Were these the elites sent by Chairman Zhao?
Even these guards had excellent physical condition, especially the murderous intent in their eyes.
These were definitely desperados who had struggled through the Dark World!
"Big Tiger, is it?"
One of them looked at Big Tiger, a thick Myanmar accent making Big Tiger feel a sense of kinship.
"Yes," Big Tiger nodded.
"They're waiting for you upstairs," the man simply pointed upstairs and said no more.
Inside the knitting factory.
Big Tiger gestured to Xiaoyang and Yao Jie to follow him upstairs, while the other four waited downstairs.
