Chapter 596: Never Seen Anyone Spend Money Like This

This really is a problem, and it should be brought up upfront.

The other party was using an internet phone call, so Yu Dazhang couldn't contact them proactively—he had to prepare responses in advance for any possible situation.

"Inside there's more than just one gold shop."

The person on the other end had clearly thought about this too:

"If one isn't enough, find a few more. If it's still not enough in the end, you can buy other gold products, but only gold—diamonds and jade are not allowed."

In the end, the other party didn't forget to remind him:

"Even if gold products still aren't enough in the end, don't buy anything else. You can leave some money over."

This is a person with a special fondness for gold… Yu Dazhang sighed inwardly.

He'd rather have money left over than buy diamonds or jade.

You could tell the other party believed only gold could hold its value.

During the gap while the other party was speaking, Yu Dazhang scanned everything visible ahead of the vehicle.

Nothing?

He immediately turned around, squeezed through the gap between the two seats, lay down on the money bags in the back seat, and looked out through the rear window.

Fortunately, the interior space of an off-road vehicle was a bit wider than other vehicles.

Plus he'd lost quite a bit of weight recently—otherwise, this gap might not have been passable.

Yu Dazhang widened his eyes, carefully searching every possible place a target could be hidden, not missing a single detail.

At the same time, he was still dealing with the other party:

"Let's get this straight first—I've got eight bags of money in the car, and I can't carry them all by myself. So once I go in, I'll need to find someone inside to help me carry them."

"If anything goes wrong in the process—like money getting lost or short—I won't be responsible. You're the one who insisted on buying gold; I'm just the delivery guy."

The moment he finished speaking, his gaze also happened to sweep over the location of an exterior staircase entrance.

Since it was the entrance to the second floor of the mall, people were coming and going there.

Right at that doorway stood a man—easy to miss if you weren't watching closely.

Wu Rui!

Yu Dazhang recognized him at a glance.

That's a pretty clever spot.

Forward, he could follow the crowd downstairs to the street.

Backward, he could blend into the flow of people and enter the mall.

The moment he noticed anything off, he could change position at any time.

After confirming he hadn't mistaken the person, Yu Dazhang immediately took out his phone and called his master, Lu Zhongxin.

And in that gap, the other party's voice rang out again:

"You talk too much. Just do as I say—get out of the car now and go buy gold bars."

This time, he didn't wait for Yu Dazhang to reply before hanging up.

And at that moment, Lu Zhongxin happened to pick up on his end.

"At my car's four o'clock direction, there's an exterior staircase leading to the second floor of the mall. Standing at the staircase entrance is one of the suspects."

Yu Dazhang kept it as brief as possible:

"By his looks, he should be that young man named Wu Rui. Try not to cause a stir when you make the arrest—there should be another suspect inside the mall."

After saying that, he ended the call directly, then quickly opened the car door and stepped out.

There was no need for extra words—Lu Zhongxin naturally understood what he meant.

If it caused a stir, it would inevitably alert the suspect inside the mall to danger.

As for talk of coordination inside and out, closing in from both sides and the like—there was even less need to say it. All of Yu Dazhang's arrest experience had been taught to him by Lu Zhongxin in his previous life.

After getting out of the car, he first went to the trunk, took out one bag of money from inside, then carried it quickly into the shopping center.

This one bag of money weighed about 55 jin—that weight would be quite a strain for an ordinary person, but for Yu Dazhang it was nothing.

Once inside, following the signs at the entrance, he quickly found a gold shop.
