Chapter 391: Climbing Over the Wall

No, it won't happen; given my understanding of those two, they shouldn't be able to do all this, so we can just go ahead with confidence.

Anyway, Zong Long is here patting his chest and guaranteeing it, but deep down Xiao Ming still has some worries.

Furthermore, if Zong Long knew everything and understood everything, people wouldn't have been led by the nose to this point today.

It's better to be cautious; I'll use the binoculars to check every corner for installed surveillance cameras. If there are any, we just need to avoid them—actually, we can completely reach a video blind spot.

Before, Xiao Ming had similar experience, so these things—including how to dodge cameras—are trivial for him, basically not worth mentioning.

Zong Long seems to have no better option now; he can only believe every word Xiao Ming says.

Then Xiao Ming raised the binoculars again, just observing the situation in the courtyard, checking this time to notice every corner's situation.

Only then can they know whether, upon entering that courtyard, they can guarantee their safety—that's what they need to focus on next.

After thinking that, he stopped continuing, got up directly, and walked over there.

He followed the edge of the mezzanine, continuously observing the surroundings, and found that there were actually no devices in any of the corners.

Could it be that, as he said, these foreigners really don't have such thoughts?

"Don't say that; I've looked all around, and I really didn't see anything. It seems they've let their guard down and didn't expect us to catch up here now."

"That's just how it is; besides, think about it—they originally met in private, and what kind of relationship they have between them—actually, he thought we weren't in control of those things, so if that's the case, there wouldn't be any tailing of them happening."

"Alright, now that we've confirmed it's very safe, we just need to go straight over and see what we can find."

While speaking, he directly hung the binoculars on his chest, then found a place to step down.

When I just arrived here, I also looked up; the wall is about a meter or so away from me.

Although it doesn't look big, the key issue is that the wall isn't very thick; if it were to collapse like that, a slight dodge of my body could cause me to fall into the courtyard.

Moreover, in such pitch‑dark surroundings, he really isn't sure whether he can smoothly enter the courtyard.

He attempts to step out, and this action is truly very dangerous for Xiao Ming.

If he missteps, he'll likely fall straight down, and no one knows what state he'll end up in.

When he was just about to go over there, suddenly Xiao Ming felt someone grab his body, and quickly Xiao Ming was pulled over.

"What are you doing? You're courting death—if you go past this thin wall, even inertia would fling you straight down."

"But if I don't go over like this, don't you think we have any other better way? If we really want to get into that courtyard, we have to do it this way."

"Don't you know to go find something?"

While speaking, Zong Long walked over to the rockery, searching everywhere, and then suddenly discovered a wooden plank there.

He felt as if heaven had left this for them, so he hurried forward and picked up the wooden plank again in his hands.

"Do you see? This is a way out with no alternative; moreover, I never expected them to leave something like this here. Look, it's about a meter long, and if we place it here, we can step on the plank and walk straight across."

Actually, Xiao Ming sometimes truly admires Zong Long; at critical moments he can stay calm.

If so, this person could really become a good partner for him, but he isn't sure whether their relationship can continue; that too is a big challenge for him.

Seeing Zong Long walk over, he directly placed the wooden plank on the two gap positions.

Then he lightly stepped on the plank, feeling it was fairly sturdy, but the two of them aren't that heavy.

Finally, Zong Long turned his head to look at him.

"Alright, I'll go over from here first to check; if I really fall, don't go in after me—hurry up, take the wooden template away, then call an ambulance and send me to the hospital."

"Heh, you're overthinking it. I just looked—the plank has been around a while, but overall it hasn't been completely destroyed, so we can use it for now; there shouldn't be any big problem."

"That's not certain either; besides, if I really did fall, explaining all this would be awkward. Alright, let's not discuss this now—believe me, there's no problem; we must get into this villa today."

While speaking, he extended a leg and lightly stepped on it; although the plank placed here still wobbles a bit, there isn't much resistance.
