Chapter 48: Risking Life Alone
Looking at the background of Lu Yang leaving, Yang Ning sighed softly: "Alas."
Then he quickly called Junlan's cell phone.
"The things you asked me to do have been done. The rest is up to you."
Junlan hung up the phone and immediately carried out the second step of her plan, which she thought was perfect.
She put on her headphones again.
It’s a pity that no sound came out of the headphones this time.
She had clearly followed the instructions in the manual, and the batteries and everything were new, so why was there no sound? How could this thousand-yuan monitoring device be worse than that five-hundred-yuan cell phone monitoring device? It was heartbreaking. Time was so tight, and she deeply regretted asking Yang Ning for help before debugging it.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she had no choice but to go to the electronics store to ask the owner who sold her the things for help.
When Junlan returned to the store, she found the door closed.
She knocked on the rolling shutter door desperately and shouted, "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?" After shouting several times and no one answered, Jun Lan kicked the gate angrily.
"Oh my god, it hurts so much!" Jun Lan rubbed her sore foot and yelled, "Where the hell are we going if we close down now? Are we rushing to be reincarnated?"
At this time, the owner of the shop next door heard the noise and stuck his head out to ask, "Little girl, were you also cheated by this shop?"
Jun Lan: "Ah? Uncle, what are you talking about? Scam?"
Boss: "Don't you know, little girl? You've been cheated by this store."
Jun Lan was stunned: "Ah? What's going on?"
The boss said, "You don't know this, but this shop has only been open for a few days and all we sell are low-quality counterfeit goods. These days, victims have been coming to our door one after another to demand an explanation. But we can't find them anywhere. They've all run away. Every day, they come and bang on our door, ruining the business of several small shops nearby. They're really cowards. If you want to vent your anger, please go away. We can't afford this small business to suffer."
Jun Lan was about to kick the rolling shutter and the door again, but when she heard the boss say this, she had to hold back.
It's really pitiful. Other people's shops are crowded with people, but these few are deserted and can only swat flies.
Jun Lan could only curse at the shop fiercely: "You bastard, you dare to cheat me out of my money? I'll deal with you when I finish my business and come back."
Jun Lan returned to Room 610, feeling so sad that she could not even cry. There were so many problems. How could she find evidence of their guilt?
She quickly called the guy who helped Lu Yang repair his phone.
"Hey, you know who I am, right? I'm the woman who asked you to fix her phone and install a wiretap last time. I want to ask, besides installing a wiretap and stealing phone data, do you also have access to her phone's location?"
"Luckily you called me earlier. I still have that idiot's phone information. Otherwise, even the gods wouldn't be able to help if you were a little later."
"Tell me, how much more money do you want this time?"
"Regarding you as a regular customer, I'll charge you 500."
"Why is it another five hundred? You really don't know each other well enough to kill!"
"Do you want to locate me or not? If not, I'll hang up!"
"Five hundred is five hundred." After hanging up the phone, Jun Lan transferred five hundred via WeChat.
After a while, she received a real-time location via WeChat.
The address is in a remote suburb of City Z.
Junlan looked at her watch and it was 19:55.
She quickly called a taxi and rushed there.
The closer you get to your destination, the more remote it becomes.
The driver couldn't help but ask, "Girl, no one dares to come here during the day. It's not because they're afraid of ghosts, but because no one lives here and the security is bad, so robbers and drug addicts often hide here. I saw that you don't look like a bad guy, so I drove you here. To be honest, why did you, an unarmed and weak woman, come here?"
Jun Lan: "It's all about finding someone. You're right. Ghosts aren't that scary these days. People are much scarier than ghosts."
Driver: "Girl, to be honest, I can only take you as far as the front and then turn around. I really don't dare to go any further."
Jun Lan: "How could you do this? Why are you letting me down when we haven't even reached our destination? I could complain to you."
The driver said, "At worst, I'll just let you go for free. If you want to complain, go ahead! I have elderly parents and young children to support, and I really don't dare to go any further."
After saying that, he stopped the car.
Jun Lan thought to herself, "If I drive too close to them, I'll definitely be discovered. I'd better get out and walk around!"
After getting out of the car, she stuffed a hundred yuan into the driver's hand and said, "Take it! No need to change."
The driver's eyes welled up with tears as he thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, sister, thank you!"
Only after the taxi drove away did Jun Lan feel a little scared.
"Oh no! In this desolate mountain area, someone might rape and kill her without anyone noticing. This is what I'm trying to do."
The only solution she could think of was to call for help.
I called Situ first, but no one answered.
Jun Lan stamped her feet in anger: "Damn it, why does he always fail at the critical moment?"
What about the boss, Nangong? He's rarely in City Z all year round, and he doesn't even answer my calls. Meizhu and Li Yu both say that carless people have no way to save themselves.
In the end, the only person she thought of was Yang Ning.
"Beep, beep, beep"
Jun Lan kept praying in her heart: "Yang Ning, please answer the phone quickly, please answer the phone quickly!"
At this moment: "Hello"
Jun Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank God, you finally answered the phone."
"Where are you now? Why does your voice sound wrong?"
"I'm in a desolate mountain area right now. I'm not sure where I am. I'll send you my location. Please drive over to pick me up!"
"Okay, stay where you are and wait for me. Don't leave. I'll be there soon."
Junlan squatted down and began a long wait in the dark wilderness with the help of the dim light from her cell phone flashlight.
With the dim light of her cell phone's flashlight, she saw a familiar, dilapidated little house in the distance.
She thought about it for a long time before she realized that it was a photo that appeared in Lu Yang's mobile phone.
"Could it be that they are all hiding over there and talking about secrets?"
Junlan decided to find out.
The further you go, the brighter the light becomes, like the light from car headlights.
Junlan used the grass as tall as a person as cover and approached the light source step by step.
At this time, she finally discovered that there were two people in the middle of the light source, Lu Yang and Ke Chenzhi.
Lu Yang: "Manager Ke, I'm short of money recently. Can you lend me one million?"
Ke Chenzhi: "Lu Yang, are you kidding me? I just gave you five million a few days ago and you spent it all so quickly."
"Manager, don't get excited. Consider this a loan of one million yuan from me. When the time comes, I will pay you back without missing a cent."
Ke Chenzhi: "What can I give you to pay you back? If you can believe what gamblers say, even pigs can climb trees."
"Manager, what you said is wrong. Why do you look down on gamblers? If I, a gambler, hadn't made great contributions to you, would you be able to sit in your current position?"
"How dare you mention your great achievements to me? Wang Dafu woke up in the hospital!"
