Chapter 298 - 298 Safe House
298 Safe House
“I haven’t seen him yet, how can I be sure?” Jiang Tong replied with a smile.
“Alright.” Zhou Jingyun didn’t ask any further. He could hear the loud noise of the wind coming from Jiang Tong’s side. It wasn’t because the window was open, but because the car was driving too fast. “Focus on driving. I’ll talk to you later.”
“Alright,” replied Jiang Tong. After hanging up the phone, she stepped on the accelerator pedal again and sped up. She had already exceeded the speed limit, but it was not a big problem. All traffic infringements would be dealt with by Guan Sandao. She could drive as much as she wanted, as long as there was no accident. The traffic light turned green, and the Lamborghini drifted past the intersection. In fact, Jiang Tong was taking a detour. In order to ensure the speed of the car remained fast, she had to take a detour and choose a road with fewer cars.
Thirty minutes later, at the Twin Bridges in the West City District. The Twin Bridges was considered an old city district of City Z at the moment. It wasn’t even considered part of the main city if they went back further in time. It was divided into the West City District of the city after the urban development in the new era began and the main part of the city was expanded. It was located in a remote area and was very far from the city center.
Jiang Tong parked her Lamborghini at the end of the old street. She took off her coat and threw it on the passenger seat. She tidied up her white shirt before she got out of the car and walked into the alley. The alley was not very narrow, and there was no problem for traffic to pass through. However, it was not straight a straight road. It was a winding road, so very few cars would drive into the alley. There were many small shops on both sides of the alley, all of which were small restaurants, clothing stores, hardware stores, and so on. It was a very lively place. Almost every city would have such a place. It was far from the city center, but it was very lively.
Jiang Tong walked further and further into the alley. There were quite a lot of people here at this time of the day, but it wasn’t crowded to the point that one could call it a crowd. When she passed by a small store with a sign that wrote ‘Clearance sale, 10% off’, Jiang Tong looked up and walked in. It was a small store that sold clothes, all of which were very cheap. One hundred dollars could buy two pairs of pants, and there were all kinds of shoes out of size. It was known as export rejects. As far as Jiang Tong knew, the store had a ‘clearance sale’ sign since the opening day, so it was just a gimmick.
Jiang Tong only went in for two minutes before she came out. She bought a white cap that went well with her white shirt. She looked like a cool person and continued walking into the alley. Jiang Tong walked through the entire alley, from one end to the other end. She could almost see the main road on the other side, and then she turned left. There were many forks on the road. There were seven-story old buildings inside, and more than half of the houses were rented out. This was the last fork.
Jiang Tong walked in. In fact, she could have entered the old street from this intersection, which was closer to the destination, but she took a detour. She was worried that Old Ghost would see her if she stopped the car at this intersection. Of course, Old Ghost knew that Jiang Tong was driving a Lamborghini. From the private hospital to here, Old Ghost should have entered from this intersection. He was different from Jiang Tong, so he didn’t need to take a detour.
Not long after walking into the fork, Jiang Tong stopped in front of an old building. She pulled down her cap and looked up at the old building. It was this building! According to the results of Jiang Tong’s investigation in the past 500 years, Shao Ying had prepared some houses in City Z for her subordinates to use when they escaped. These were similar to a safe house. The difference was that the safe house wasn’t safe. If they really committed a big crime, with the current density of surveillance cameras, the police would find them sooner or later. Therefore, these houses that were similar to the safe house were only used as temporary lodging and prepared some things that the escapees needed to escape. There were a few such places in City Z, and they were all the most confidential. There were also places that weren’t that confidential, and they were obviously places that Shao Ying’s people in City Z could provide. Although there were a few places and many possible courses of action Old Ghost could have taken, Jiang Tong still felt that Old Ghost would come here directly.
Because this was the only safe house that had been prepared beforehand but had never been used! Although the other locations had not been discovered, they had all been used in the past three to four years. This was the only place that had not been used. It was the safest and most confidential location! This time, Feng Kun invited Old Ghost over because of his special identity. He could even be considered a top killer from overseas. If something happened to him, it would be a big problem. So, with Feng Kun’s cautious character, it was very possible to provide this place for Old Ghost to use!
