After hearing the whole story, Lu Yuan's brows furrowed even deeper.
"Why the hell are you messing with other people's plants? Don't you know it's dangerous?"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, the other person lowered their head.
Normally, he would definitely choose to refute, but what's the point of refusing now? It's more important to save his life than to be quick to speak.
After Lu Yuan finally sighed, he looked at Xiao Shan beside him.
The other person nodded slightly, seemingly helping Lu Yuan make a very important decision.
"Alright, you can't leave this place for now. I'll help you find a place to settle down first. We'll find another place when we need your help. You know what to do, right?"
The man in the black market looked astonished after hearing this.
He quickly nodded in agreement; if he didn't agree at this point, he would be out of his mind.
Although Lu Yuan had previously said he would help him leave, it was merely a temporary measure.
Lu Yuan now says he will take him somewhere to settle down first and obtain more information.
What else could he not say? It was practically the best chance to save his life.
While the military and police were still besieging the building, Lu Yuan immediately steered the boat with the man towards the villa.
The military and police forces are still stationed in the direction of the villa. Although there are all kinds of sirens outside, they still haven't taken any action, which means they are aware of the scale of this operation.
When he saw the military and police forces in the distance, Lu Yuan frowned slightly.
At this point, the man cannot come directly back to the villa with her, firstly because his safety cannot be guaranteed.
Secondly, his going in will also bring him considerable trouble.
Lu Yuan moored the boat a few hundred meters away from his residence and looked around the side streets.
There is a small hotel not far away.
The sight of the hotel instantly reminded Lu Yuan of the hotel where Zhao Dazhu had stayed in Jinling.
Those hotels basically offer no safety whatsoever.
However, it is precisely because of these kinds of places that they don't attract much attention; the most dangerous place is the safest place.
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and walked into the hotel. He saw the hotel owner dozing off. Hearing the noise outside, he quickly wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.
Turning around, I saw a young man in his twenties, so I quickly greeted him and asked if he needed a room.
Lu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and pointed directly to the standard room on the wall.
How much per night?
The other person wiped their glasses and took a closer look at Lu Yuan's attire.
"As you know, things haven't been peaceful lately, so the price..."
Hearing the other person's tone, Lu Yuan instantly understood.
This person must have thought I was dressed well, so they wanted to rip me off.
However, Lu Yuan had absolutely no interest in such petty people. He reached into his pocket and took out a hundred-yuan bill.
He waved the hundred-yuan bill in front of the other person, his mouth agape with delight. He nodded quickly and then pointed to the price of the deluxe standard room.
"Then I'll give it to you according to the standard of a deluxe standard room!"
After saying that, the other party reached out to take the money, but Lu Yuan feigned an attack and took the money back.
"That's not what I meant. Here's a hundred yuan, but no one can disturb me inside. I need someone to provide me with three meals a day, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I'll stay here for half a month!"
After hearing this, the other person's eyes darted around, and they immediately understood what it meant.
However, just as he was about to try and extort more money from Lu Yuan, he discovered that Lu Yuan had somehow pulled out a dagger and was picking at his nails.
The shop owner immediately understood that this kind of person was definitely not someone he should mess with.
So he quickly grabbed a bunch of keys and headed upstairs.
Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, then turned and nodded to the black market man on the ship.
The other person immediately understood Lu Yuan's meaning and followed Lu Yuan towards the hotel.
The shop owner didn't dare turn his head and led him all the way to the third floor.
The house has only three floors, and there is only one narrow passageway on each side of the passageway, making a total of eight rooms.
Lu Yuan glanced at it and realized that almost no one had ever lived in the room. It was obvious that the boss, who loved to rip people off, wasn't doing well, and no one here was willing to take care of his business.
The shop owner, with a humble expression, pointed to the far end of the street.
"There's a TV in here, a seat by the window, and an indoor bathroom! This is the best room I have here. Do you think it's worth a hundred dollars?"
Lu Yuan gently pushed open the door and glanced inside.
Although the room was clean and tidy, it always had a musty smell, which was unavoidable. Even his presidential suite had this faint musty smell.
The main reason is that the room is surrounded by rivers, which makes the air humid all day long.
However, Lu Yuan wasn't concerned about the environment; he was more interested in whether there was a better escape route in the room. He glanced towards the window.
The security bars were installed properly. Lu Yuan reached out and pushed the security bars; they were quite sturdy.
So Lu Yuan turned to the shop owner and said, "My friend has a strange condition; he doesn't like being locked up in places with security bars. Remove the security bars, and I'll give you another hundred!"
Upon hearing this, the shop owner immediately picked up a hundred yuan without saying a word, turned around, and went back downstairs.
He picked up the toolbox and started tightening the screws on the security window.
In just a few minutes, the security bars were removed, and the shop owner's face was beaming with joy.
"Brother, is there anything else you need? If you have it, I can get it for you right away!"
Lu Yuan shook his head. The house was just so-so. As long as it included food and lodging, it was enough to save this person's life.
What he urgently needs to do now is to participate in the quarterfinals immediately, then rescue Zhou Tong, and see if he can bring Jiang Wenguang out with him as well.
However, it seems that there is a dangerous atmosphere in the camp, making Lu Yuan feel as if something is about to happen.
After settling the man in, Lu Yuan took Xiao Shan back to his residence.
After returning home, he sensed something was amiss.
