A hotel opposite Yunling Hospital, a slightly shabby double bed room. At first glance, the white sheets and pillows can't stand up to scrutiny. Upon closer inspection, you'll find yellowish marks that can't be washed off, which makes you want to vomit.
Lao Gu, who was used to staying in five-star hotels, had never stayed in such a shabby hotel before. He had originally thought that he would stay there for two nights for the mission and leave after the task was completed. However, after A Jiang and his companions had sneaked into the hospital for a whole day, they had made no progress.
He stood in the room, walking back and forth, and looking at his watch every two minutes...it was extremely painful.
"What's wrong with Ajiang...no response at all..." Lao Gu muttered to himself in frustration.
Of course, he didn't dare to call A Jiang rashly. If A Jiang was exposed, calling him would be tantamount to walking into a trap.
At this moment, there was a knock on his door without warning.
Lao Gu's heart tightened. He came to the door cautiously and looked out through the peephole. Seeing that the person was the other kid who sneaked into the hospital with A Jiang, he heaved a sigh of relief and opened the door.
As soon as the boy entered the house, he couldn't wait to tell the old man about A Jiang's plan, saying that it was to use the fire to create chaos to "lure the snake out of its hole."
After hearing this, Lao Gu couldn't help but frown. He leaned on the long table, crossed his arms, smoked silently, and questioned, "We want to kill Lao Gui alone, not the doctors and patients in the entire building... Setting fire? Are you crazy?"
The visitor laughed and explained, "Brother Jiang said that it would only create a little smoke, and would not produce open flames, nor would it threaten the entire building..."
"Oh...that's good." Lao Gu nodded as if he suddenly realized something. He thought that as long as the single kill did not turn into a team wipe, the case would be under control and he would be able to extricate himself.
If the whole building suffered, and one life turned into dozens or hundreds of lives... then the nature of the incident would change, and it would definitely alarm the top leaders in Yanjing. Then, even Lu Chengze would find it difficult to escape sanctions, let alone him, a small follower who followed Lu Chengze to run errands.
"So, you agree with Brother Jiang's idea?" the visitor asked.
Lao Gu nodded and replied, "Agreed, do you need external support?"
The man said, "Brother Jiang told us to pretend to be patients or family members and create chaos on both floors of the old ghost building. The louder the better, to attract the attention of the police."
"Very good, A Jiang has thought it through very carefully... I will call and make the arrangements right away, and you go back immediately to inform A Jiang to start preparing... This matter cannot be delayed any longer, let's act tonight!" Lao Gu ordered with a serious expression.
"Yes, I'll go back and tell Brother Jiang right away." The man nodded in agreement with the same seriousness.
After the visitor left.
Lao Gu arranged the rest of the matters.
Then he called the driver and said, "Get ready. We will return to the provincial capital in the evening."
As long as A Jiang takes action, the police will be alerted. No matter whether A Jiang can complete the task or get away with it... the matter ends here!
He couldn't just wait in the hotel foolishly. If A Jiang and his team failed in their mission, he would fall into the hands of the police.
According to Lu Chengze's style of doing things, not only would he not come forward to save himself, he would also find a way to eliminate this threat to himself.
As long as he leaves Yunling first, even if Ajiang and the others are exposed, he will have enough time to escape back to Yanjing.
As an old hand at the game, the so-called code of conduct only flashed through his mind for two seconds before disappearing without a trace.
"Ah Jiang... I have to go first... I'm sorry for you! I will give you every penny of the money I promised to give you, as long as you are still alive!"
Lao Gu faced the Yunling Hospital through the window and murmured to himself with shame in his heart.
...
That night.
Wu Xiongfei and his men did not relax their vigilance and continued to stay outside Lao Gui's ward.
"Captain Wu, go and have a rest. You'll be fine with us two here. You haven't slept for two days and one night. If you continue like this, you'll get sick." The comrades from Shannan advised the listless Wu Xiongfei.
They had performed the task of guarding serious criminals before, but they had never seen anyone work so hard, keeping a close eye on them for days without rest. Even an overloaded machine needs a break, let alone a human!
But they could not understand Wu Xiongfei's feelings. This is a person's fulfillment of his promise and an unwavering and responsible attitude.
Wu Xiongfei forced himself to smile and said to his colleague, "Stay up one more night, tonight is very important...If nothing happens after tonight, you really need to have a good rest tomorrow."
"Well... Captain Wu, besides the three of us, there are five or six comrades from Yunling. With so many people watching overtly or covertly, there will be no mistakes..."
"Wait a little longer. I always feel uneasy."
Wu Xiongfei rubbed his face, trying to stay awake, and said stubbornly.
Look at the time, it's almost twelve o'clock...
Apart from the occasional movement of medical staff and the occasional beeping of medical equipment, there was no other sound in the hospital.
Just as the three were preparing to take turns to rest, Wu Xiongfei suddenly smelled a burning smell. He immediately became alert, stood up and looked at his colleagues, exclaiming, "Oh no, where is the fire?!"
Colleagues were also frightened by Wu Xiongfei's words. This is a hospital, the corridors are long and narrow and crowded. If there is a fire, people will rush out and it will be a mess!
The three of them stood up and looked around, trying to find the source of the fire. Before they had any clue, the smoke alarm above their heads made a shrill sound.
Billowing black smoke floated out from all directions, making it impossible to tell where the fire was.
