Chapter 770: Meeting Up with Ruan Wei

When I arrived near the alley, I hurriedly took out a thousand yuan and gave it to big brother.

Big brother said not to take so much, and only took two hundred yuan.

He said that everyone coming to Sijiucheng to work is not easy.

Looking at big brother's back, I felt very grateful; truly an honest Shandong person.

I looked at the entrance of the alley where a sign reading Yangquan Hutong hung.

Confirming it was here, I glanced into the alley.

The streetlights in the alley were unusually bright. The weather was warm, and many tourists were strolling through Sijiucheng's alleys under a guide's lead.

Shi Yong and I did not walk into the alley.

I looked up at the camera here.

I need to avoid the camera as much as possible, lest it spot me. That would be troublesome.

Hotels, tea houses, and restaurants lined both sides of the street.

People of all kinds were resting and chatting on benches at the entrances.

I suddenly spotted Ruan Wei.

Ruan Wei was anxiously pacing under a tree, smoking.

I only saw him alone.

I quickly walked to Ruan Wei's side.

I whispered, "Ruan Wei."

Ruan Wei turned his head and saw me.

He never expected me to come to Sijiucheng.

"Zhao Ge." I quickly signaled him to keep his voice low.

Ruan Wei immediately understood and fell silent.

He led me to a corner.

It happened to be a blind spot; the camera couldn't see here.

I took out a cigarette and tossed it to Ruan Wei.

Ruan Wei caught it.

"Zhao Ge, I didn't expect you and Brother Yong to rush over."

Shi Yong laughed, "Ruan Wei, you can't imagine—we're like heavenly soldiers; we can come to Sijiucheng anytime."

"Enough, Shi Yong, let's discuss serious matters. How's the situation you're monitoring?" I asked Ruan Wei.

"The situation hasn't changed at all. Since Liu Yong entered the door,

the door of the Douqu Hall has never opened again.

However, Liu Yong's driver drove away," Ruan Wei said.

"Ruan Wei, how many people did you bring?" I asked.

"I brought four people. Those four are drinking tea in the tea house at the alley entrance, waiting for my orders at any time," Ruan Wei said.

"Very well, we don't have much time; we must rescue Liu Yong tonight.

Otherwise, tomorrow will bring changes easily," I said.

"Yes, Zhao Ge, I'm also anxious. I want to force our way into the Douqu Hall, but you won't allow it," Ruan Wei said.

"We definitely can't force it; the Douqu Hall's layout is not ordinary—if you go inside, you'll get lost," I said, taking a drag.

"The horse hunter gave me a layout of the interior," Ruan Wei produced a sheet of paper.

"The horse hunter is just an ordinary staff member; he doesn't know much about the Douqu Hall.

Let me tell you, the entire underground of the Douqu Hall is hollow; the horse hunter might know something about the above‑ground structure, but he's not familiar at all with the underground.

Keep in mind Liu Yong is leading more than ten people.

Those over ten people all need a place to be detained.

Moreover, the Douqu Hall doesn't even have a single exit.

"Ruan Wei, you saw that shop; it's so late, which is actually the best time for business, why hasn't it been open?"

I pointed to a shop not far down the street and said,

"Probably it's not rented out," Ruan Wei said.

"Are there shops here that can't be rented? That's one of Wen Han's underground garage exits; from there you can go directly into the underground garage," I told Ruan Wei.

"Ah, that's impossible; that shop is some distance from the Douqu Hall. How could it be?" Ruan Wei said, somewhat believing.

He, of course, didn't believe it.

"Open the shop's roller shutter door, which is an elevator, then descend underground; there's a long corridor, wide enough for two cars. After the corridor you reach Wen Han's underground garage. Shi Yong has been in there with me; if you don't believe it, you can ask Shi Yong," I said.

"Ruan Wei, you don't believe, do you? The interior space is huge; the garage holds more than ten luxury cars," Shi Yong gestured exaggeratedly.

Ruan Wei nodded,

"Zhao Ge said it, how could I not believe?"

Should we enter Wen Han's underground garage from this spot?

"The foot traffic is too heavy now. Forcing entry at this time would cause trouble.

Wait a moment.

We'll talk after Ding Li and Xiao Long arrive," I told Ruan Wei.

"Alright, I'll follow Zhao Ge. I've brought four people; they're all experts. They're great at everything. Shall I call them over?" Ruan Wei said.

I shook my head,

"No need for now, Ruan Wei, you've been in contact with Qiao San, right?" I tossed the cigarette at my feet.

"We have been in contact; I contacted him as soon as I arrived, but I feel Qiao San's role isn't big."

"He has no backing now. He also doesn't dare to fight Wen Han." Ruan Wei took a puff of cigarette.

"No, it's useful. I think this way, ask Qiao San if he's willing to participate. As long as the matter succeeds, I'll give him money,"

"I estimate he also has no income these days; his life isn't great either." I took out another cigarette.

"Zhao Ge, what do you plan to have Qiao San do?" Ruan Wei asked.

"Get Qiao San drunk, bring people to smash the gate of the cricket-fighting hall, and demand the money lost from cricket fighting here earlier."

"The purpose of this is merely to attract Wen Han's attention."

"Wen Han will certainly strengthen ground defenses at this time."

"We'll then think of a way to enter the underground parking garage."

"Before entering the underground parking garage, can you have your people cut the surveillance cameras here and replace them with still images?"

"Then after opening the rolling gate,"

"use ropes to go down underground, operate the lift, and then we'll all go down as well."

"I think Liu Yong should be locked in the underground parking garage." I told Ruan Wei the plan.

"What if Liu Yong isn't locked in the underground parking garage?" Ruan Wei asked.

"Capture someone to interrogate, then search on the ground. Today we must rescue Liu Yong; I have no choice but to burn my boats." I said while smoking.

"Zhao Ge, if that's the case, we can do it this way: I'll first send my people down; there will certainly be Wen Han's people below,"

"As long as we capture someone and ask, we'll know whether Liu Yong is held above or below ground. We'll then all have to go down blindly; if there's an ambush inside..." Ruan Wei pondered.

"Excellent, this idea is good, Ruan Wei, you're very smart." Shi Yong praised Ruan Wei.

"I nodded, also indicating agreement."

"Time quickly reached nine o'clock, but there were still many people on the street."

"At that moment my phone rang,"

"I saw it was Ding Li's call,"

"\"Ding Li, where are you? \""

"\"Zhao Ge, Xiao Long and I have just entered the street. We dare not drive further in, for fear people will recognize the car. Where are you? \" Ding Li said."

"\"Go down the street straight ahead, then turn right at the entrance of Yangquan Hutong,"

"\"walk another hundred or so steps, and I and Shi Yong will be waiting here for you. \" I said."

"Ding Li arrived by car more than an hour later than us."

"After Ding Li hung up the phone,"

"I then said to Ruan Wei,"

"\"You go now arrange your subordinates to quietly deal with the surveillance cameras, then open the rolling gate, and send someone down to test. \""

"Ruan Wei nodded and then left."

"Ding Li brought Xiao Long over."

"\"Zhao Ge, what should we do? \" Ding Li asked."

"\"Wait a moment, see if Ruan Wei opens the rolling gate first, then we'll talk. \" After saying that, I gestured for Ding Li to step back behind me, because there's a surveillance camera not far away."

"After Ruan Wei walked for a while,"

"he went to arrange people to handle this matter."

"After more than ten minutes,"

"Ruan Wei stood on the other side of the street, using gestures to indicate that the surveillance camera issue had been resolved and the rolling gate had also been opened."
