Chapter 198: Why bother?
He was not sure who is going upstairs.
But if it’s Lao Dao… he couldn’t beat Wu Chen, and he couldn’t escape from such a close distance!
Wu Chen watched.
Soon, the sound of heavy and messy footsteps approached. A tall and thick middle-aged man staggered to the fourth and a half floors. He was dressed in ordinary clothes, his clothes were a little greasy, his hair was messy, and he was a little fat.
He was obviously drunk, so he staggered upstairs holding on to the railing.
Wu Chen stopped looking, turned around and opened the door with the key.
Of course that person was not Lao Dao. He was just an alcoholic renting a room in this building.
Wu Chen opened the door and entered Room 501.
The house was not big, with a standard two bedrooms and one living room, six to seventy square meters, and all kinds of “household furnishings” were available!
It’s very clean and even had a cozy feel… The house was cleaned regularly, and even the “owner” occasionally came back to stay for two days.
Although this house had never been used by the people arranged by Ding Ruilong, it was precisely because it was not used that it was necessary to make this house active. Otherwise, a house that had not been lived in for many years and suddenly became active one day was very suspicious.
Wu Chen closed the door and walked in, looking at the living room and scanning.
He spent the next few minutes walking up and down the house, looking and observing all the rooms, and opening the wardrobe in the bedroom.
He was looking for something!
Because this place had “never been used” and there was no precedent, of course Wu Chen would not know where “something” would be hidden.
However, Wu Chen, who had experienced thousands of reincarnations, learned almost everything.
As long as there was one, he couldfind it, and it would only take a short time!
Wu Chen turned around and returned to the living room again.
He sat on the sofa, thought for a while, stood up again, and walked around to the back of the sofa. This was a fabric sofa. The sofa leather could be peeled off for cleaning. There was a zipper behind the sofa.
Wu Chen looked at the zipper and stopped for a while, then raised his hand and opened the zipper.
He pulled horizontally first and then vertically to form a triangular opening.
Wu Chen looked into the triangle opening and smiled, because he saw something… The back of the sofa was hollowed out, and there was a silver-gray metal box inside. There was something!
Lao Dao would definitely come here!
Wu Chen took out the box, carried it to the front of the sofa, sat down, and put the box on the coffee table.
The box was heavy and had a password.
Wu Chen thought about it again. Everything was handled by Jiang Chuan. He might have placed this box in advance. Then… he might have a habit of using repeated passwords, especially for unimportant things.
The box itself was important, but the password was not.
Because… If an outsider really got the box, would it matter whether there was a password or not? A brick could break the lock open!
Wu Chen turned the wheel and entered “336”.
He then flipped the switch again.
With a click, it opened!
Wu Chen opened the box completely and checked the contents inside. There were various medicines for emergency trauma, gauze, needles and disinfectant, etc. These were not important. What was important was the certificate.
Fake ID cards, fake driver’s licenses, fake passports… the photos on these certificates were all Lao Dao! There were 50,000 yuan in cash, three bank cards, a phone card, a mobile phone, and other things needed for escape and communication in the box.
In addition, there were two pistols and a box of ammunition in the box.
Lao Dao would definitely come here!
Wu Chen checked everything, didn’t move anything, and closed the box.
He got up and left the room again, went outside, put the key back to the original position, then entered the room again, closed the door…
He pulled a chair, went to the balcony, sat down and raised his legs, and took the key again. He then took out and flipped through the phone while looking out the window from the corner of the eye.
This house was not seen from north to south.
The window faced west, and he could see the entrance of the West Alley outside diagonally.
The reason why Wu Chen didn’t wear a coat and wore a peaked cap was because he might arrive at the same time as Lao Dao, and if he ran into him in the alley and if Lao Dao saw him from a distance, he could still run…
Putting on a peaked cap, his face would be somewhat obscured, so it was impossible for someone to recognize him from a distance.
More than ten minutes later…
Wu Chen, who was flipping over his mobile phone, suddenly turned his head and looked at the entrance of the alley, which he could barely see through the window.
He saw a taxi parked on the main road outside the alley entrance. A man got out of the taxi and took out a hundred yuan in cash from his pink wallet and paid.
This man was wearing a cap, a mask, and a black trench coat. He looked a little bloated, but he didn’t feel like he was fat.
Lao Dao!
Although he didn’t see the face, Wu Chen was sure it was Lao Dao!
Height and habitual walking pace couldn’t be mistaken.
Moreover, his “features” were obvious. He did not allow people to see his face, and his body was bloated because he wore a lot of clothes. The wound mighthave collapsed. He was afraid that the blood would be seen, so he wore more than one jacket. Even his wallet was a dazzling pink color…
When Lao Dao escaped from the hospital, he should have only been wearing a hospital gown and nothing else.
The wallet was naturally stolen!
The taxi driver might have noticed something was wrong with him too. A grown man using a lady’s purse, but no one would mind other’s business!
Lao Dao walked a few steps into the alley and suddenly staggered. He pressed his hand on his heart, covered it, and walked a few steps with force.
He then stood up straight again, and his steps became normal again.
After that, Wu Chen couldn’t see him anymore. The angle of view was blocked.
Wu Chen stood up and quickly dialed a number.
“Hey, brother-in-law! Have you found him?!”
He called Li Ruotai, who picked up right away!
Not long after he talked to his sister Li Ruobing, Li Ruobing called him again and told him that his brother-in-law Wu Chen knew where Lao Dao was and went to look for him.
Li Ruotai was shocked and excited at the time and told his sister that he was going to call his brother-in-law to ask about the situation, but was scolded by Li Ruobing!
She just made him wait for the phone call!
Don’t make a mess!
So Li Ruotai had been waiting for Wu Chen to call him.
“Ask the hospital to send an ambulance to the west of the city…” Wu Chen told Li Ruotai the detailed address, then hung up!
Of course the ambulance was called for Lao Dao. It would arrive in about thirty minutes. These thirty minutes were enough for Wu Chen to get everything done!
It was originally agreed that Li Ruotai would be allowed to observe, but Li Ruotai acted on his own, so he missed the opportunity.
A few minutes later.
Click, click! Someone opened the door with the key of 501.
It opened immediately.
The man wearing a mask and peaked cap staggered into the door, then slammed the door shut, took off the mask, and cursed heavily, “Shit!”
It hurt, but he didn’t dare to make noise.
After taking a few steps into the living room, Lao Dao suddenly felt something was wrong.
Jiang Chuan had told him long ago that the box was on the sofa.
But at the moment, the box was on the coffee table.
Also, there was a chair on the balcony, which conflicted with the cleanliness of the whole living room. It seemed that someone had been here recently, sat on the balcony, and left without putting the chair back?
“Why are you doing this?” A man’s voice suddenly came from behind.
Lao Dao turned around sharply. The moment he turned around, he pulled out a sharp knife. It looked like a kitchen knife that could easily be bought.
He moved fast and fiercely. Although he was seriously injured, his movements did not stop. He turned around, took a step forward, and slashed at Wu Chen’s neck with the knife!
