Chapter 4115: Target Locked
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
After hanging up on Qiu Yuluo, Lin Yi dialed Xiao Bing."I need a floor plan of Lanshan Apartment."
"Got it."
A few minutes later, Qiu Yuluo’s message came through, just four digits: 1302.
Quietly, Lin Yi drove to the hospital and went to 1302.
It was a medication storage room, and for Lin Yi, the location was perfect.
Seeing Lin Yi come in, Qiu Yuluo walked over.
"Did you find something?"
"Can’t really call it a finding."
Lin Yi pointed at the building across the way and said:
"I think they might have people hidden over there, but inside the hospital they could also have people in place. Those are the only two methods I can think of."
"We’re thinking along the same lines," Qiu Yuluo said:
"But on the hospital side we’re locked down tight. Even the attending physicians are all our people. It’s not very likely anything slips through."
"Not necessarily. We can’t underestimate Anglo’s capabilities. His penetration game is top-tier."
Qiu Yuluo gave a self-mocking smile. "Even the Central Guards Brigade got infiltrated. Right now, no matter who it is—even us—that possibility is there."
"Exactly. That’s the foundation of everything we do: suspect everyone. Otherwise there’s no point in the mission," Lin Yi said:
"The two prisoners’ injuries, we don’t let the hospital doctors handle them. Later, give me all the reports. I’ll write the treatment plan. I’ll arrange people to deliver the meds to you. Every step of the treatment process stays out of outsiders’ hands."
He paused, then continued:
"Second, dig into the doctors in the related departments. Even if they don’t touch the patients, they can still pick up some info. That’s still a risk."
"We’ve already sent people to check out the doctors."
"Did you assign anyone to look into their families?"
"Their families?"
"Not everyone will bend for money. Their families might be their weak spot. So we need to check that angle too, see if their families might have been threatened."
Lin Yi said:
"We’re dealing with Anglo here. We treat this carefully."
"Putting it that way, you’re reminding me of something. I’ll get that arranged."
"Let’s split up now. The show’s about to start."
"Okay."
Qiu Yuluo left. Lin Yi stood at the window, his enhanced eyesight letting him see clearly into the building opposite.
After a careful scan, Lin Yi locked onto fourteen rooms, all with positions and angles perfect for a sniper. Next step was to set up some counter-surveillance.
He thought for a long while; with just the Central Guards’ manpower, it would be hard to cover that many people.
He’d need extra hands.
Just then, Xiao Bing sent over the floor plan of Lanshan Apartment. After painstakingly checking and cross-referencing it, Lin Yi called Liang Cunxiao.
"Dad, I’ve got an urgent op that needs your help."
"Go ahead."
Liang Cunxiao’s tone turned serious.
"I need a whole squad deployed here, plainclothes, to lock down Lanshan Apartment," Lin Yi said:
"And then put people on 1303, 1304, 1305, 1309, 1311, 1313, 1315, 1317, and all the rooms on the 14th floor."
He paused, then continued:
"The occupants of these rooms need thorough vetting. Sort out which ones are long-term residents and which ones only moved in over the last few days, then put tight surveillance on the latter."
"Got it. I’ll take care of it right now."
After the call, Lin Yi stayed in the medication storage room.
Very soon, a whole day passed, and they had the full picture on the building across.
Among them, units 1309, 1313, and 1413 had people move in over the past few days. The rest either had long-term occupants or were vacant. Combined with what Lin Yi had observed, the suspicion on these three rooms was indeed the highest.
Night fell. All three rooms were dark, curtains drawn tight, no way to see inside.
The more it was like that, the more it confirmed Lin Yi’s suspicion.
There was a high chance these three rooms were dirty.
Just like that, the night passed without incident.
After a full night’s rest, the pain in Lin Yi’s body eased a lot.
At least he could walk normally again.
Early the next morning, Lin Yi saw the curtains of 1309 pull open. A little boy appeared at the window, with a woman in a nightdress standing behind him.
From the way they interacted, he could tell they were probably mother and son.
With that, the suspicion on 1309 dropped sharply, though the possibility was still there—just very low.
The only ones left on the table were 1313 and 1413.
Ring ring ring——
Just then, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was Xiao Bing calling.
"Lin Bro, we’ve got something. The occupant in 1313 is a medical device salesman. After he rented the place, he immediately went on business trips. His identity checks out. The one with the highest suspicion now is 1413."
Lin Yi looked up at room 1413 across the way. Its position seemed to be the best of all of them.
"Was 1413 rented directly from the owner, or through the property office?"
"The owner."
"You and surpass gear up, you’re coming with me. First we contact the owner, have him cooperate and open the door for us."
"Okay, I’ll get it set up right away."
Hanging up, Lin Yi locked his sights fully onto 1413.
Meanwhile, Liang Cunxiao’s people arrived. All of them were in plain clothes, posted around the apartment complex, sealing off every exit.
Ring ring ring——
Lin Yi’s phone rang again. It was Xiao Bing.
"Lin Bro, we’re all set."
"What’s the owner’s situation?"
"Pretty solid. Funny coincidence—his main gig used to be as a soldier. After discharge he did some small business, made a bit of money, bought a few units, and 1413 is one of his. I explained our situation to him, and he was very cooperative."
"Good. Stay put and wait for me. I’ll come to you."
"Okay."
After the call, Lin Yi put on a mask and a cap and walked out of the medication storage room.
Blending into the crowd, he quietly headed toward Lanshan Apartment.
When he entered the courtyard, Lin Yi spotted Xiao Bing and Zhang Chaoyue.
At the same time, he saw a middle-aged man standing with them, a bit overweight, with cropped hair.
"That guy must be your team leader, right?" the middle-aged man said.
"You can tell?" Zhang Chaoyue said:
"Watching the way he walks, it’s different from everyone else. And his eyes—one look and you know he’s a hard case."
"Good eye, Old Squad Leader." Zhang Chaoyue flicked away his cigarette and said:
"Let’s move."
"Right."
The group’s demeanor was relatively relaxed; Zhang Chaoyue and the middle-aged man were even chatting and joking, making them look no different from any other residents in the complex.
Lin Yi didn’t rush over to join the three. He walked his own path, so that if something went down, he’d have some separation to work with.
