Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Caroline had received formal military education since she was young. It was impossible for her to let her partner get into trouble. Hence, after hesitating for a while, she decided that she couldn’t leave it alone.
She knew that there were surveillance cameras in Will Sr. ‘s store, so she thought of a way to hack into the computer that Will Sr. had left in the store. She saw the scene of Will Sr. being coerced and captured.
Then, from the corner of the surveillance camera at the entrance of the store, she saw Will Sr. being stuffed into a black car. Unfortunately, the car was parked in the corner Of the surveillance camera, so she couldn’t see the license plate number.
Caroline could only pull up the traffic routes in this area and find the surveillance video of the intersection. She calculated the speed and time and roughly determined which car it was. She also obtained the license plate number and followed the car’s traces the entire time.
The process was obviously not easy, and it was particularly taxing and time-consuming. Finally, she found the car parked in an abandoned warehouse three blocks away.
Caroline first changed into a set ot black sportswear that was suitable tor sports and fighting. She also equipped herself with disguise tools and a gun. Before she left, she thought for a moment and returned to her room to get one of the bottles of perfume. She sprayed a little on herself. This was one of the settings she had made to disguise her identity when she met Will Sr.
In the end, when she was halfway to the abandoned warehouse, she realized that the people had already stuffed Will Sr. back into the car and taken him away. They were driving in the direction of the toy store.
Caroline had a guess, so she slammed on the brakes, turned around, and headed straight for the toy store. Before the men in black arrived, she slid into the toy store through the ventilation pipe, took the children’s watch, and fiddled with the door. Her goal was to let Will Sr. notice it so that he could ask for help in an emergency.
She didn’t expect those people to not make things difficult for Will Sr., but to plant a listening device on him. Seeing Will Sr. deliberately put on an act, she was afraid that the listening device had been secretly installed but was discovered by Will Sr.
Since she had made this trip, Caroline might as well bring the ‘Water Star’ sapphire along. She would hand it over to Will Sr. and her mission would be considered complete.
As for how to avoid those people and hand the gemstone to the person behind the scenes, that would be up to Will Sr.’s ability. Caroline was not worried that he would take the huge commission because she believed that Will Sr. did not have the guts to do so.
It would be impossible for Will Sr. not to be tempted. After all, this was such an expensive necklace. But just as Caroline had guessed, he did not have the guts to.
An amateur weapon merchant like Will Sr., who didn’t have any background, was able to gain a foothold in the world of middlemen because he never embezzled or deducted bounty hunters’ commissions. Therefore, he had accumulated a good reputation, and his business was getting better and better.
He knew that he must not break this rule.
Will Sr. looked at the ‘Water Star greedily, then forced himself to close his eyes and put it back into the silk bag. He opened a narrow secret compartment under the long table and hid the item. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Although he was lucky to have survived today, he was afraid that there would be people around him monitoring his actions closely in the following period of time. Therefore, Will Sr. decided to take the sapphire to the buyer after careful consideration.
He then pretended to be very agitated and tossed around in the warehouse for a while. After that, he went out of the store and pretended to hide a children’s watch inadvertently. Then, he made a call to his colleague and complained to him for a while. “I don’t know which b*stard sent this person. He doesn’t know the rules at all and wants to shoot me. Hmph, my head is here. Let’s see if he dares to come and take it. Those who don’t dare are all cowards!”
The man in black who had captured him happened to hear his words. He was so angry that he kicked over the stool. “Since he wants to die, I’ll fulfill his wish!”
Will Sr. knew that the other party would be angry if he heard it, so he said it on purpose. When those people put him in the sack, they had secretly placed a bug in the gap in the inner pocket of his coat.
They thought he didn’t see it, but although Will Sr. was a brawny old man, his senses were still relatively sharp, so he immediately sensed the slight foreign object..
