Ning Zhiheng and Tong Huahan finished their dinner quickly. They discussed the details and agreed to go back and make preparations for the inspection the next night.
Ning Zhiheng had a rickshaw take Tong Huahan home. Watching his departing figure, he turned to Nie Tianming, the third action team leader beside him, and said, "Keep a close watch on him and see if he makes any unusual moves tonight. If he tries to escape, arrest him immediately!"
Nie Tianming nodded and accepted the order, then led his men to follow.
At this moment, Wang Shucheng appeared behind him and reported, "Team leader, the application from the telecommunications department has been processed. They have also set up a wiretapping system for Tong Huahan's phone. As soon as he contacts the outside world, they will be able to find out his phone number very quickly!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded. This was a precautionary measure, even though the intelligence department's data showed that Tong Huahan was fine, and he was very confident in his judgment that Tong Huahan was safe.
However, being cautious and suspicious by nature, he had to make several arrangements. In case Tong Huahan really had a problem and had fooled everyone with his outstanding acting skills, he would definitely raise the alarm immediately upon learning that Yong'an Bank had been exposed to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department. Only if he could get through tonight's ordeal could Ning Zhiheng truly relax and proceed with the next step!
He rushed back to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department and reported the details to Zhao Ziliang. Zhao Ziliang said that the preparations were complete and the eight accounting staff of the Military Intelligence Investigation Department were in place.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly that night. Tong Huahan did not exhibit any unusual behavior and went to work as usual. Under Nie Tianming's supervision, he entered Yong'an Bank, which put Ning Zhiheng at ease.
At 6:30 p.m. that evening, everyone in the Yong'an Bank office building gradually left for home, except for Tong Huahan, who remained in his office.
The night shift guard had just finished handing over his duties to the day shift guard and began checking the door locks of each room and the windows on each floor. He came to the chief accountant's office and found that the door was not closed properly. He tried to push it, and the door opened.
He peeked out and saw that the chief accountant, Tong Huahan, was still working in his office. He quickly said, "Mr. Tong, you haven't left work yet?"
Tong Huahan looked up at the guard and said with a smile, "It's Chen Guang! Are you on duty tonight? I have a lot of work to do today, so I need to work the night shift! You go ahead and do your work, don't worry about me."
The guard, Chen Guang, said with a smile, "Mr. Tong, you've really worked hard. Alright, I'll go take a walk somewhere else. If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll be there in a minute!"
Tong Huahan smiled and nodded, then buried himself in his work until Chen Guang turned and left. Only then did he go to the door to take a closer look, glancing at his watch, and waited anxiously.
Time passed quickly; an hour later, Tong Huahan checked the time, left his office, and went to the guard room, pushing open the door.
"Mr. Tong, is there something you need from me?" Chen Guang quickly stood up and asked.
Tong Huahan pulled out two banknotes and said with a smile, "Chen Guang, I have too much work to do and I'll probably have to stay up all night. But I didn't bring enough cigarettes today. Without them to keep me awake, I really can't get through this. Could you please go out and buy me two packs of Hademen cigarettes?"
"Okay, okay! I'll go buy it right away, Mr. Tong, please wait a moment!" Chen Guang said. In Yong'an Bank, apart from the general manager and assistant manager, the only other person who was good at this was Chief Accountant Tong. Of course, he had to make a point of currying favor with him and getting him to do so. Chen Guang quickly agreed.
Watching him quickly walk out the door, Tong Huahan breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a paper packet from his pocket, opened it to reveal a pinch of white powder, which was the sleeping pills that Ning Zhiheng had prepared for him.
He unscrewed the teacup on the table, poured in the powdered sleeping pills, and gently shook it until the powder disappeared and dissolved in the water. Then he put down the teacup, took out a handkerchief, wiped up any water spilled on the table, carefully checked to make sure there were no flaws, and then left the guard room.
About ten minutes later, Chen Guang arrived at Tong Huahan's office, panting, and handed Tong Huahan two boxes of Hademen cigarettes with both hands.
"You've worked hard, Chen Guang!" Tong Huahan said with a smile. "I'm a heavy smoker, I really can't do without it!"
"You should also take care of yourself and not stay up too late! Just call me if you need anything!" Chen Guang said respectfully before leaving the office.
Back in his guardhouse, Chen Guang sat for a while, picked up his water cup and drank a few sips of tea. Then he got up and checked all the door locks and windows again. Back in his guardhouse, he felt a little sleepy.
He shook his head, feeling increasingly heavy. He quickly drank half a cup of tea. He liked to drink strong tea to stay awake when he was on night shift, but for some reason today, he felt increasingly unable to keep his eyes open, and he couldn't resist the drowsiness. He couldn't hold on any longer, so he quickly lay down on the bed to rest. As soon as his head touched the pillow, overwhelming sleepiness carried him into a dream.
It was already 10 p.m. Tong Huahan, who was anxiously waiting in his office, checked the time and estimated that the sleeping pills should have started to take effect!
He got up and left the office, tiptoed to the guard room, and gently knocked twice on the door. There was no response from inside. He pushed the door open and entered, only to see that the guard Chen Guang was already lying on the bed fully clothed, fast asleep, occasionally emitting soft snores.
Tong Huahan was secretly delighted, it seemed that things were going very smoothly. He stepped forward to Chen Guang, gently pushed him twice, and called out, "Chen Guang, Chen Guang!"
