"Master is short of money lately... I'll just get my hands on this sapphire and then present it to you! You'll surely treat me well then, won't you?"
"laugh……"
Thinking of this, two slightly sickly flushes appeared on Cao Ying's cheeks, her eyes sparkling; she was already impatient.
The owner must be very lonely, having been left alone in the country with no one to keep him company.
As my master's personal bodyguard, I must spend some quality time with him after this mission is over.
Solving everything for their master is the very meaning of the existence of these four-colored roses!
With a snap.
Cao Ying gently opened the toilet door. Instead of walking out of the bathroom, she stepped onto the sink next to her, then lifted the vent with both hands and slowly moved it aside. Her figure was like a nimble swallow as she flipped and jumped onto it.
"Tell me the exact location of [Tears of Atlantis], as well as the surrounding security situation and evacuation routes."
Cao Ying held a flashlight in her mouth for illumination as she climbed inside the exhaust pipe. The small earpiece she wore on her ear was her communication device for communicating with the logistics personnel within the Yan Yun Gang.
Upon hearing Cao Ying's request, the other party reacted quickly, and a lazy female voice came through the earpiece: "Xing Zhicheng, that cunning old fox, probably guessed that we would make a move. The sapphire is kept in a private vault four kilometers north, but he has already arranged fourteen security guards in advance. Hmm... it seems that each of them is a martial artist."
"This private vault uses state-of-the-art infrared detection equipment. It's said that even a mosquito flying by would trigger an alarm. In the very center, there's a small box made of bulletproof glass. The Tears of Atlantis is kept in a small safe inside. Be careful, every member of this security team is armed to the teeth. Even if you were shot, it would be a big problem."
"As for the evacuation route... I've already prepared a parachute for you in advance. It's in the lowest cargo hold, mixed in with some of the Xing family's goods, so they didn't find it."
Having memorized all this information, Cao Ying's eyes grew serious as she slowly nodded: "It seems the Xing family values this sapphire very much. The security is so tight... You're right, they may have already realized that we're about to take action."
Anyone who can become an enemy of the Xia family cannot be a fool.
Now that they are about to enter Jiang City, which was still the Xia family's territory not long ago, the Xing family cannot help but take precautions in advance.
Unfortunately, with me there, their defenses will most likely fall apart...
"Hmm, after all, it's a one-of-a-kind sapphire in the world, so it's normal for the Xing family to be on guard. You need to be even more careful. After all, you're the only one on the plane this time, all alone. I can only offer you some assistance remotely."
"But there might be one oversight on the part of the Xing family... That private vault uses an independent power supply. In that case, I can buy you three minutes of power outage time to temporarily turn off the infrared detection. It turns out that Xing Zhicheng, that old fox, made a mistake despite his meticulous planning. If his private vault had used the same power supply as his private jet, I wouldn't have chosen to cut off the power for safety reasons. The risk is too great; you might even get caught up in it."
"But now... this old man has given us a chance."
The female voice in the earpiece seemed unable to suppress a laugh, and Cao Ying also couldn't help but smile. Everyone said that Xing Zhicheng of the Xing family was cunning and shrewd, but no one expected him to make such a low-level mistake.
That's fine too; that one-of-a-kind sapphire is destined to benefit me.
"I've arrived, let's begin, Yellow Rose..."
While the two were exchanging information, Cao Ying had already climbed to the top of the private vault. From her angle, she could see the armed security guards moving back and forth below through the gaps in the ventilation window.
As Huang Meigui had gathered, every member of the security team was fully armed, their vigilant gazes constantly sweeping across the small private vault. Each person was looking in a different direction, their eyes meeting each other's, ensuring there were no blind spots.
"Good luck, for...our master."
Huang Meigui paused.
Before their operation, the Four-Colored Roses had formulated a slogan to boost morale before the battle. However, this slogan was originally for the Xia family. After Xia Che was abandoned in the country by someone, the Four-Colored Roses changed their slogan.
—The Xia family has abandoned their master, so they are not worthy of loyalty. Each of these four women lives for Xia Che.
The Yan Yun Gang is a subordinate force of the Xia family, but the Four-Colored Roses are not.
"clear."
Cao Ying's expression was solemn. She let out a deep breath and then grabbed the ventilation window in front of her.
Huang Meigui acted quickly; in just a few seconds, the private vault, which had been brightly lit with no blind spots, was plunged into complete darkness.
Clang!
Almost simultaneously, Cao Ying pulled open the ventilation window, her nimble figure leaping down and disappearing into the darkness.
"Who? Who is it?!"
The security team was thrown into chaos instantly.
Cao Ying chose the perfect time; it was just before the auction was about to begin. No matter how vigilant the security guards were, they would inevitably relax their guard a little when they were about to complete their mission.
What Cao Ying was targeting was that moment of relaxation in her mind.
Once the human eye is accustomed to light, it takes time to adjust if it is suddenly plunged into darkness in order to see clearly in the dark.
Cao Ying will not give them time.
From the moment she climbed into the ventilation duct, she only had a small flashlight for illumination. Her eyes had long since adapted to the darkness, so the sudden power outage did not affect her vision.
Almost the instant she cried out in surprise, Cao Ying moved.
When people are frightened, they will subconsciously make some noise, such as screaming, brandishing a gun, or running around.
At this moment, Cao Ying transformed into a lone wolf shrouded in the night, and every security guard who made a sound became her prey.
These voices, in Cao Ying's eyes, were like being exposed to the sunlight, becoming the best help for her to lock onto her target.
For a moment, muffled groans could be heard from inside the private vault.
Although each of these security guards was a martial artist, their skills were simply not up to par in the eyes of Four-Colored Rose. In just one exchange, after a brief encounter, they all lost consciousness and had no ability to fight back at all.
A three-minute power outage?
For most people, it might be a very short time, just a few words exchanged.
But it was enough for Cao Ying to disarm all the security personnel and calmly take away the priceless "Tear of Atlantis".
