After Chapter 12, Gu Sheng, who was packing his things, was at his computer...
Afterwards, while tidying up, Gu Sheng found a small drawer next to the computer, which contained a bunch of gadgets.
Gu Sheng didn't recognize those things, but he inexplicably knew what they were used for.
Thinking that he might need them in the future, he took those things out.
Then he put the rest of the items back in their original places.
After that, Gu Sheng went to sleep.
He thought he would have trouble sleeping because of what happened today, but he fell asleep soon after lying down and had surprisingly good sleep quality.
The next day, after a simple breakfast, Gu Sheng took out his phone and searched for "No. 32, Xiyang Street".
It wasn't very far from Gu Sheng, but it wasn't exactly close either.
He checked the route and decided to go and investigate in person first.
An hour later, Gu Sheng stood in front of No. 32 Xieyang Street, a business building. He went inside, walked around the lobby, and only found a takeout locker; there were no lockers at all.
Did that man lie to him?
However, although he didn't find a locker, Gu Sheng did see other things.
Gu Sheng walked to the street and looked across. Directly opposite No. 32 Xieyang Street was a coffee shop called "Yaoyuan".
He walked into the coffee shop and found a seat.
This coffee shop looks ordinary; there's nothing particularly noteworthy about it.
Could this be the coffee shop Jiang Yuan mentioned?
As soon as Gu Sheng sat down, a waiter came over with a menu.
The waiter placed the menu in front of Gu Sheng and asked, "Sir, what would you like to order?"
Gu Sheng doesn't usually drink coffee, but he casually ordered one: "Cappuccino, please. Can you add more sugar?" He can't stand bitter things.
The shop assistant wrote down Gu Sheng's request in a notebook, then leaned down and whispered in Gu Sheng's ear, "It's not time yet, what are you doing here?"
Gu Sheng's relaxed body tensed up instantly.
Is this Jiang Yuan?
Gu Sheng sized up the shop assistant in front of him. He was a tall, T-shaped man with an ordinary face, and he would be hard to spot in a crowd.
Gu Sheng noticed that he had calluses on his hands, and the muscle lines could be vaguely seen under his loose uniform.
He can use a gun and a knife, probably a short knife. He has explosive power and great wrist strength, but he can't beat me.
These thoughts flashed through Gu Sheng's mind in an instant.
Realizing what he was thinking, Gu Sheng looked at the man's exposed wrist. "Can't beat me? I feel like he could take on several of me at once."
Gu Sheng stared at the man expressionlessly without saying a word.
The man took a step back, a business-like smile on his face: "Don't make such a scary face. I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that my brother didn't come today."
Gu Sheng was puzzled. Was his expression terrifying? He was just spacing out.
However, it seems that the man in front of him is not Jiang Yuan; the older brother he mentioned should be the one.
None of that matters. What matters is that the coffee shop originally belonged to Jiang Yuan.
unwise.
He should have realized earlier that they were meeting on each other's territory.
Moreover, he must have seen his action of going to the other side just now.
Just as Gu Sheng was pondering, the man spoke again: "Are you going to the other side to look for something?"
He did see it.
Luckily, he didn't find anything on the other side. If he had found something, he wouldn't be able to explain it now.
However, Gu Sheng disliked the man's aggressive attitude. After all, he was now the BOSS of the organization, although no one knew it except the organization's leader.
Gu Sheng looked at the man and said in a calm yet somewhat cold tone, "Are you questioning me?"
The man stiffened for a moment, his eyes flickered, and he instinctively straightened up, saying, "How dare I question you? You can do whatever you want, but now is not the day to meet."
Despite her best efforts to conceal it, Gu Sheng still noticed that the man seemed somewhat afraid of her.
Being afraid is good; if you're afraid, you won't dare to ask too many questions, and Gu Sheng won't have to rack his brains to think of an answer.
However, after listening to the man's words, Gu Sheng suddenly had an idea.
He said, "Change the time."
The man slightly widened his eyes and said, "My brother didn't say..."
He stopped before he could finish speaking. Gu Sheng unconsciously tapped the table with his fingers. The sound wasn't loud in the noisy coffee shop, but the man felt as if each tap was hitting him directly.
Previously, it was always the men who directly interacted with Gu Sheng. His impression of Gu Sheng was only twofold: mysterious and aloof.
Within the organization, Gu Sheng was in charge of stealing, while Jiang Yuan was in charge of transporting the stolen goods.
However, the organization stipulated that its members were not allowed to meet directly, which led to the creation of this coffee shop.
Although Jiang Yuan and Gu Sheng never met in person, they frequently communicated by phone.
The man remembered Jiang Yuan saying: In the organization, the boss's word is law, but Raven can say three things.
When the man asked what the sentence meant, Jiang Yuan replied: "What I mean is, becoming Gu Sheng's enemy, even if you're the boss, will surely lead to your death."
The man wondered, if Gu Sheng was so dangerous, why not nip the danger in the bud?
Jiang Yuan didn't answer, but just laughed, as if he were laughing at the man, or perhaps at himself.
The man understood the meaning of that smile; it was a laugh at his overestimation of his abilities.
Gu Sheng is very strong, there is no doubt about that, you can tell just by looking at what he has done.
Any one of the things Gu Sheng stole could shock the world, and the places where he stored them were all said to be watertight.
But none of that could stop Gu Sheng.
After a while, the man started to have the illusion that the security in those places was so-so, and that he could have sex with them too.
I know he visited a certain piece of the collection.
24-hour continuous security patrols.
360-degree surveillance with no blind spots.
Multiple identity checks are required for entry and exit.
He couldn't imagine how he could take things out quietly under such a level of security.
But Gu Sheng did it, and many times, without ever failing.
With such skills, the man believed that if Gu Sheng were to target him, he would definitely die silently.
Although Gu Sheng was aloof, he did not come across as abrupt; in fact, he was quite polite.
In addition, Gu Sheng always got the most money in each mission, which made Jiang Yuan quite unhappy, so he often complained to the man.
As Jiang Yuan's most trusted confidant and considering himself Jiang Yuan's best friend, the man also harbored some dissatisfaction with Gu Sheng.
However, he would only speak with a bit of emotion; he would absolutely not dare to do anything in reality.
If he displeases Gu Sheng, he will immediately slide to his knees.
Gu Sheng was unaware of the man's inner thoughts; he was simply trying to figure out how to say it without letting the other person know that he didn't know the specific time of the appointment.
The man swallowed hard, his tone becoming much more serious, and asked, "Which day do you want to reschedule?"
Gu Sheng placed his fingers interlaced on the table and said, "The time will be postponed; he will decide."
The man paused for a moment, then immediately said, "I'll talk to my older brother, but I'm not sure he'll agree."
Gu Sheng didn't answer the man, but stood up and said, "No need for coffee."
After saying that, he left the coffee shop.
After reaching a spot out of sight of the coffee shop, he turned and walked into a dark alley.
He squatted down as he walked into the alley.
He was terrified just now.
Gu Sheng took out his phone and opened an inconspicuous app.
He didn't know when, but a bunch of unfamiliar apps suddenly appeared on his phone.
He initially thought these were all junk software, so he deleted some and left the rest untouched.
Now he suddenly knows what these software programs are for.
He left some local specialties on the coffee shop employee earlier.
It was one of the gadgets he took out of the drawer on his computer; it was a location listening device.
He hadn't actually planned to do that at first, but before leaving, his hand involuntarily stuck to the shop assistant.
The listening device was stuck to the clerk's shirt collar; the shirt was probably his own and wouldn't be changed anytime soon.
Next, he wanted to hear what the shop assistant would say to Jiang Yuan.
I opened the app, put on my Bluetooth headphones, and listened to the noisy voices inside. The man was still in the coffee shop and probably wouldn't leave anytime soon.
Just treat it as white noise.
Wearing headphones, Gu Sheng thought of something else.
The leader of the Ouroboros organization couldn't possibly not know that the coffee shop belonged to Jiang Yuan, so why would he send Gu Sheng to pick up something from across the street from the coffee shop?
The coffee shop is full of Jiang Yuan's people; if they notice anything unusual, they'll definitely tell Jiang Yuan.
Gu Sheng stood up, then bypassed the surveillance cameras and went around to the other side of the office building.
This place, across a block from the other side, is also a trouble spot. There's a door here that looks exactly like the one on the other side.
Gu Sheng walked in and found that in addition to the takeout lockers, there was also a storage locker in the lobby.
I found locker number five, entered the password, and the locker opened, but it was empty.
So this is where it was?
The Ouroboros leader probably didn't explain clearly because he thought Gu Sheng could guess what he meant.
As a result, Gu Sheng didn't understand what he meant at all.
Now that the coffee shop staff have seen Gu Sheng's actions, will they become suspicious?
Gu Sheng wasn't sure if his actions would arouse suspicion, but since the gem was now in his hands, even if they had doubts, they would still have to meet with him.
Let's leave those aside for now.
Gu Sheng looked up at the corner of the wall and saw a surveillance camera flashing red light pointing in their direction.
He secured the locker and left to go home.
After getting home, he took out the computer he had sworn never to touch again yesterday, and then, as if making a wish, kept repeating, "No. 32, Xieyang Street, No. 32, Xieyang Street..."
Leave the rest to your body's instincts.
His hands flew across the keyboard, and windows lit up one after another on the screen. After a while, the windows disappeared, and the surveillance footage was displayed in their place.
All the surveillance cameras are located at No. 32 Xieyang Street.
He found the security camera facing the locker and connected the footage to his phone so he could check it anytime.
Since there's nothing in the locker right now, it means the person who put it there hasn't arrived yet. Gu Sheng wanted to see who would deliver it.
Meanwhile, Gu Sheng connected the bugging device to his computer and played it aloud, but his ears hurt from wearing headphones all the time.
On the other end of the listening device, the noisy voices from the coffee shop continued. The clerk seemed very dedicated; it looked like he wouldn't leave until the end of his shift.
There's nothing Gu Sheng can do now but wait.
