Guo Xuyang watched as the car stopped at the seaside dock.
It was noon, and he was puzzled as to why the container truck dared to stop so openly at the dock.
As he was thinking, he noticed the driver start the vehicle again and drive into a large warehouse nearby.
He suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, realizing it was the very place where he had first rescued Jiang Qixin.
Indeed, this was where he had come to Shanghai to save Jiang Qixin for the first time.
What a coincidence. He wondered who these robbers were.
He had Ye Zi hide the car and then kept a close eye on the container's cabin.
He saw that after the three people in the cabin drove the container truck into the large warehouse, five or six people approached.
Their expressions were relaxed, not nervous at all, as if they weren't afraid of being discovered.
What was going on?
"Yang Zi, all surveillance signals have disappeared," Xiao Yun suddenly said.
"When did that happen?"
"There has been no signal since we left the dock. I can't connect even after restarting my phone."
"Got it."
No wonder these people weren't nervous. They thought they had covered their tracks perfectly.
Fortunately, he had followed them today. If he hadn't, who would have known where these materials were being transported?
These men opened the rear door of the container, and the escort vehicle backed out from inside.
The driver, He Xiaoping, got out of the cabin and took a cigarette from someone, taking a deep drag.
"That was really nerve-wracking, scared me to death."
"Brother, this job is enough for you to live comfortably for a lifetime," a bearded man said.
He didn't speak further but kept his eyes fixed on the two people inside the escort vehicle. He needed to know if the people inside the vehicle were also involved in this robbery.
If he wasn't mistaken, this was a collusion robbery, and he still didn't know exactly how many people were involved.
A security guard got out of the vehicle, while another had been knocked unconscious.
This meant the security company was not involved, but the security personnel had participated with premeditation.
He wondered if it was Zhu Hongli or Xiang Xiaoying.
Guo Xuyang's heart stirred, and he absorbed Liu Yilin from the cabin and the person knocked unconscious in the vehicle into his mind.
"You and Yu'er go down first and come back later," he said to Xiao Yun.
"Let's go, Sister Yun, we'll go down and relax," Yu'er said, pulling her out of the car.
After the two went down, Guo Xuyang first released Liu Yilin.
Liu Yilin was still in a daze; it seemed the butt of the gun had hit him hard.
He used his hypnotic ability to fully hypnotize Liu Yilin and then questioned him.
"Among the four of you, who was specifically responsible for this escort mission?"
"He Xiaoping."
"Do you know what the item in the container is?"
"We don't know. The company instructs the escort leader. Our mission is to ensure the safe delivery of the item to the designated location. We don't need to know the specific item. This is also a measure the company takes to protect the interests of its clients."
"What is your name?"
"Liu Yilin."
"How long have you known He Xiaoping?"
"More than two years."
"Have you executed many missions together?"
"Not many. We are assigned tasks randomly and don't have fixed partners. This is a measure the company has put in place to prevent internal theft."
"What are the names of the two people in the container?"
"Zhu Hongli, Xiang Xiaoying."
"Have you worked with them often?"
"Not often. We are all assigned and combined by the company on an ad-hoc basis, with the escort leader being ordered temporarily. However, I don't know why He Xiaoping was chosen this time, as his professional competence isn't that high. I used to be the designated leader."
Guo Xuyang realized from Liu Yilin's words that this robbery was not a simple matter. Someone high up in the security company was involved in this robbery.
"Who designates the escort leader for your missions?"
"There's a designated vice president. This is a Shanghai operation, so it's designated by the vice president in charge of Shanghai business."
"What's the name of this vice president?"
"Fang Shizhong."
"Fang Shizhong? Where is he from?"
"I'm not too sure. I think his hometown is from Jieyang, but I don't know the exact place."
"Jieyang?" Guo Xuyang repeated.
He suddenly remembered Fang Xiuming from Jieyang, who managed a transportation team.
They both had the surname Fang. He wondered if there was any connection between them.
Seeing that he couldn't get any more information, he simply hypnotized Liu Yilin.
The people in the warehouse suddenly became flustered. It turned out He Xiaoping had discovered Liu Yilin was missing.
Guo Xuyang released the other security guard from his mind and said to Ye Zi, "Later, you and Xiao Yun will take these two and leave first. Yu'er and I will go inside and have a look."
As he said this, he opened the car door and got out.
"Xiao Yun, you and Ye Zi go to the store first. She doesn't know the way, so you drive when you go out later. Don't touch the other two in the car. Yu'er, come with me to the front."
"Be careful," Xiao Yun said.
"It's alright, hurry up and go," Guo Xuyang waved his hand.
Now, the few people in the warehouse were searching everywhere but found nothing.
"No. This place isn't safe anymore, we need to evacuate quickly," He Xiaoping said.
"The ship hasn't arrived yet, and there's nowhere to hide if we go out. We can't leave," the bearded man said.
"Didn't you knock out those two? How did they escape?"
"Who knew they would wake up? We forgot to tie them up earlier," He Xiaoping said with some regret.
"It's too late to say anything now. Quickly lock the warehouse and search slowly. I don't believe they can fly up to the sky," the bearded man said.
"As long as we make it to tonight and the ship arrives, we'll be free. Is your information accurate? Is there really tens of billions worth of goods?"
"This was specifically instructed by Boss Fang. The main party is very confident in this matter now and has fully entrusted the transportation to the security company. That woman used to follow along, but now she doesn't. Boss Fang has thought about dealing with her several times, but he hasn't succeeded. After this job, Boss Fang plans to quit."
"With tens of billions, why would anyone do such thankless security work? Each of us will get three to five hundred million from this. Then we can find a place, buy a house, get a wife, and have a litter of children. How happy would that be?"
As they spoke, the men searched for people. They had no idea that Liu Yilin and another person had been silently taken away by Guo Xuyang.
Guo Xuyang had originally intended to sneak closer and deal with these people. Upon hearing that a ship would arrive tonight, he decided to absorb all the jade from the container into his mind and hide somewhere.
He wanted to see what kind of scoundrels were hiding behind these people, daring to mess with his things.
