Chapter 246: What are you Waiting For?
Hmm... He was not wrong.
“My people failed to capture that fat man,” The middle-aged man stared at Jiang Cheng, “He is... very agile.”
“Exceptionally agile.”
“However, you might not realise how much he cares about you even though you only treat him like a tool.” The middle-aged man turned to the young man beside him. The young man spoke up, “After we realised the fat man had escaped from the market, he sneaked back to this place. He is currently hiding in the rooftop of the building opposite here to observe the situation in this office.” The young man pointed at an old residential building. It had been abandoned for a while already. It was a good vantage spot.
However, Fatty, who didn’t have anti-recon experience, didn’t realise such great vantage spots would expose him easily. He probably wouldn’t be able to escape. After all, while he was slippery, he was useless in a fight. Since he was exposed, it was only a matter of time until he was caught.
“Therefore... do you plan to murder us both?” Jiang Cheng looked at the man.
The middle-aged man looked back at him, “Why do you say that?”
Jiang Cheng turned to the young man who spoke earlier. “There is a unique smell on him. It’s chlorine mixed with disinfectant. You are not familiar with this place. Therefore, after you kill us, you’ll take our bodies away. However, the journey is long. To prevent our bodies from reeking, you’ve prepared the disinfectant cocktail to cover the smell.”
The middle-aged man’s eyes glowed slightly. He didn’t deny it. “Continue.”
“I believe your best solution is to strangle us with ropes.” He paused, “That will make the crime scene cleaner. It will be easier for you to make it look like we have disappeared. However, I’m curious about one thing. This place doesn’t have that many cameras, but they are still there. Plus, there are private cameras set up by local shops. How can you be sure the police won’t be on your tail? You drove here in more than one car. Hiding your presence will be a big problem,” He lifted his head to ask, “How do you plan to solve all these problems?”
Jiang Cheng slowly extended his finger to press the phone on the other side of the table. The message on the screen popped into the middle-aged man’s sight. “Hang on. We’ve confirmed your location. We’ll be there in ten minutes.” That message was received ten minutes ago.
The middle-aged man’s pupils trembled.
The next second, the office door was kicked down. Police officers rushed in. One of them had a sharp ponytail. She waved her gun around and shouted, “Put down your weapons!” The two young men were knocked over. Chen Xiaomeng was female, so she was treated better, but she was detained too.
Even her phone fell to the ground.
“Cough... Cough...” Jiang Cheng struggled with his hands on the rope. The veins popped on his forehead. His pupils rolled like a flopping fish. He slammed into his chair.
“Stop!” The policewoman aimed her gun at the middle-aged man. “Release him... Or I’ll shoot!”
A police officer slowly moved through the suspect’s blind spot.
“Save me... Cough...”
Jiang Cheng gripped the rope. He played the role of a poor victim to perfection. The awkward thing was that the middle-aged man had already raised both his hands in surrender, but Jiang Cheng was still acting.
