(Yesterday was Sunday, and the lazy old man took a break, making dumplings with family. Ashamed, today he continues to work hard!)
For many, tonight is an ordinary evening, but for some, tonight is anything but peaceful.
Without needing to watch the surveillance footage, Li Yan can guess Julian is definitely staying in the room, while his bodyguards are on high alert, like facing a major threat, even to the point of being jumpy and seeing threats everywhere. Yet he insists on his judgment, believing there will be probing tonight, but definitely no large-scale assassination.
On his way down, he found the hotel security had already increased compared to last night. Perhaps because the restaurant across the street had an incident, making the hotel more focused on safety. The news hasn't spread widely, clearly, the SIA's actions have received governmental approval through diplomatic relations, so local government is also suppressing the matter. Obviously, this is an enemy with strict gun control, any shooting incident would be controlled to varying degrees by secrecy. However, with the proximity, when things happened in the afternoon, some people must still be aware.
However, Julian and his team didn't flee back hastily from the front but left from behind, taking a car back. Of course, the hotel wouldn't suspect this matter is related to their guests, even though the security increased slightly, it didn't reach a strict level.
Li Yan didn't go to the hotel restaurant but left the hotel, wanting to feel the surrounding atmosphere. Just like Yue Yao would arrange Shi Jian'en, Liu Xi, and Feng Wuqing to station separately near the hotel, just like Li Jie, who came to assist, would find a small motel nearby to stay, other assassins and Si Country agents would surely also strive for the advantageous terrain, now perhaps there are undercurrents inside the hotel, while the surroundings must be even shrouded in dense clouds!
King's invincibility depends not just on confidence, nor just prior analysis, but also on caution and the ability to adjust plan details at any time! He trusts his analysis but still wants to understand the situation personally to feel assured.
He has already familiarized himself with the surroundings in advance, even walked around a section of street in detail this afternoon, and of course, knows where the drugstore is. Leaving the hotel, he seemed to casually walk along the roadside towards a drugstore, without needing to look, he understood that different directions might have different people observing here through binoculars.
He walked at a slow pace, like a normal person strolling, after walking a section, he crossed the street and entered a restaurant. Li Yan ordered some dishes and paid in advance, instructing the waiter to pack them, saying he would come by later to pick them up.
After coming out again, it didn't take much time, he then headed towards a drugstore dozens of meters away. Before going to the drugstore, Li Yan went to a convenience store and bought a pack of cigarettes.
He strolled leisurely, after buying emergency contraceptive pills from the drugstore, Li Yan lit a cigarette roadside, not in a hurry to return to the restaurant to wait.
From the moment he left until now, he has basically determined he hasn't been followed. Because appearing at the hotel entrance, on the road, he might be monitored from a distance with binoculars, but after passing through three different types of stores, he moved beyond the binoculars' view range, if someone were following him, whether walking or driving, they would hurry over. At least they'd pass outside, ensuring he was in the store, not leaving through a back door.
Restaurant, convenience store, drugstore, besides buying different items, he also confirmed no one was following. This further confirmed two things: first, he blended in with ordinary guests appearing at the restaurant, not receiving special attention; second, he was tracked in the evening, still due to Li Chengfeng, the tracker aims to kill Li Chengfeng, it was after arriving at the cinema they temporarily decided to eliminate Li Yan and Li Jie together. Now, it seems that young man and foreigner, only they knew, perhaps that foreigner's arrogance, didn't report to their organization.
And this whole observation made Li Yan feel it's still peaceful, with winds but no waves tonight, maybe it will be a time when agents planted among hotel guests showcase their skills, while the perimeter won't have large-scale actions.
After smoking for a while, Li Yan slowly headed back, walking towards the restaurant dozens of meters away.
Just then, his phone rang!
This phone number is unknown to most people; contacting him now would be one of the two people, either Guan Ziyi or Yue Yao!
No matter who it is, it must be crucial information, Li Yan immediately answered the call.
"King! Something's happened…" A somewhat hurried voice of Yue Yao came from the phone.
"Speak slowly." Li Yan said calmly.
"The three of them advanced recklessly, seizing a good opportunity at night, confirming a lone Si Country agent. So Liu Xi lured that person to a downtown park, while contacting Feng Wuqing and Shi Jian'en to prepare to surround and eliminate that agent…"
Listening to Yue Yao's narration, Li Yan didn't need to hear the rest, coldly said: "He knows to call for help, doesn't the other side know? Ends up more people came!"
"That's right, now those three are trapped in the downtown park…"
"Told them to wait, disobedience is deservedly punished!" Li Yan was indeed somewhat furious.
Last time, hit by the Clover Organization's Silver Bullet offensive, it dispersed a part, forcing him to clean up, resulting in the loss of several subordinates, including good hands like Peng Duandao and Liu Yunqing. Now those three count as the 'elite core' of their organization, generally, with three A-Class assassins united, he would feel assured. But now the opponent isn't ordinary people, isn't a syndicate or a family. This is the world's top intelligence agency SIA's agents, and they even combined with Si Country Ministry of Defense, might include assassination elites drawn from the Marine Corps, claiming a team of over a hundred!
