Chapter 242 - 241: Tracking
Therefore, Cold Face and Bao naturally located Wei Li and his group’s position. Chen Tianlong turned on the GPS, tracking Wei Li’s movements, sprinting all the way.
Around four o’clock that day, Tang Xiao could no longer sit still, not knowing what the real situation was like, so he led a large group of people and rushed over.
When Chen Tianlong and the other three arrived, they discovered it was a small forest area, and in the middle of the forest, a big road led straight to the entrance, marking the secret base of the Celestial Wolf Gang.
This discovery was undoubtedly of great use to Chen Tianlong in the future. Unless they relocated, they could be wiped out in one go later.
"Wei Li, you two enter from the left, Bao and I will go from the right!" commanded Chen Tianlong.
Wei Li nodded, as the Little Master, his word was an order. The Assassin Group adhered to the philosophy of always obeying commands, much like the military. Without strict discipline, nothing can achieve great results.
The two quickly scaled the wall, and although Chen Tianlong was the weakest among the four, climbing walls was not a challenging task for him.
It wasn’t long before the four appeared inside the Celestial Wolf Gang’s secret base.
Chen Tianlong knew Tang Xiao couldn’t stay at home for long and would soon arrive. As the overall person in charge of the Celestial Wolf Gang, seeing that note couldn’t keep him calm.
After all, it stated that there was an insider in the gang rescuing the hostage.
The two teams quickly entered the base, searching separately. They had to be fast; otherwise, with a large number of people arriving, rescuing the hostage would be a difficult task.
Inside, there were many factory buildings and various artificial dormitory buildings, but among them, a building about six or seven stories high stood out clearly.
Chen Tianlong directly ran toward the building; it was undoubtedly the most suspicious place.
If this was the headquarters building of the Celestial Wolf Gang, the hostage wasn’t inside, but being in such a secluded mountain building, there was no need to hide people so meticulously.
Sure enough, upon entering the building, the two quickly found a room with a line of people standing at the door. Chen Tianlong took a glance—there were about six or seven people.
And indeed, it didn’t look like abuse but rather hospitality; it was clearly a luxurious house.
"Bao, you handle those on the right, and I’ll take care of those on the left... but before we take action, break the surveillance cameras in the corridors on both sides, understood?" ordered Chen Tianlong.
Breaking the cameras was not a pressure for Chen Tianlong, but who knew what Bao’s situation was.
"No problem!"
Bao replied coldly, only saying a word.
Chen Tianlong grinned wryly but didn’t delay further. Time was now critical to their success. The two nodded simultaneously, and two minutes later, they stood at both ends of the corridor, hidden in the corner of the wall.
Suddenly, Chen Tianlong waved his hand. The two rushed out simultaneously, then turned swiftly, throwing a dagger, and quickly charged forward like leopards hunting prey.
Chen Tianlong delivered a mid-air kick, while Bao did a whirlwind sweep, leaving no time for the seven people to react before they were all knocked unconscious on the ground.
Bao quickly pulled out a wire, fiddled with the lock for a moment, and with a click, the door opened.
But as they pushed the door open, two guns were pointed at them, leaving the two in an awkward position.
"Haha, I knew you would come, luckily I was smart and stayed inside watching the hostage, otherwise I’d have fallen for your trap," laughed Gu Yan, the third-in-command coldly.
"Hmph, you dare to kidnap, aren’t you afraid of getting caught by the police?"
Chen Tianlong was just stalling for time with this nonsense. They had four people; while two were controlled now, there were still two experts remaining.
Chen Tianlong took the opportunity to glance into the room, spotting a girl about twenty years old sitting on the bed, her eyes red and swollen, seemingly having cried recently.
"Are you Gu Mei?"
Chen Tianlong needed to confirm it, or it would have been a waste to rescue the wrong person.
"Yes, please, rescue me,"
Seeing Chen Tianlong, Gu Mei knew they were here to save her, and she couldn’t care less about the current situation, speaking with a quiver in her voice.
"Shut up!"
Gu Yan felt a bit speechless; was this girl an idiot, asking for help even when the rescuers were under his control? Did she think he was air?
Indeed, Gu Mei shut up in fright after such a yell.
After all, Gu Yan was holding a black handgun; if displeased and fired, she wouldn’t want to die. Life was too precious, and she hadn’t enjoyed enough of it yet.
She had been in the dream-like life at Capital City University yesterday, and now she was in a desolate place, held captive, feeling genuinely frustrated.
Now, she had longed for a savior day after day, but as soon as one arrived, they were held at gunpoint. Gu Mei felt quite desperate.
"There’s no need to be so harsh on a woman, and don’t think that just because you have a gun, I’m afraid of you."
Chen Tianlong was incredibly calm, not panicking. In this situation, this person wouldn’t dare shoot lightly, since they didn’t know his background. Firing recklessly could lead to major trouble.
If the secret base had been exposed in advance, a large force could be following, or perhaps these two were undercover police officers. Killing them, the police could use this as enough evidence to arrest everyone here.
The consequences were too severe for Gu Yan to act rashly, needing to wait till his big brother Tang Xiao arrived for a decision.
"Raise your hands and turn around!"
Another subordinate shouted at Cold Face Bao.
Bao didn’t speak, instead turning slowly as ordered. But at that moment, Bao moved, astonishing even Chen Tianlong. The speed was akin to lightning.
Before the subordinate could react, Bao had a gun in hand, while the gun from the nearby subordinate was suddenly gone.
"What?"
The subordinate was already scared stiff. In the blink of an eye, how had the tables turned, and now someone else was pointing a gun at him?
But before he could finish saying "What?", he felt his vision black out and fainted. Bao’s gun was now pointed at Gu Yan’s head.
"Drop your gun, or I’ll shoot!" Bao’s voice was chilling, cold enough to make even Gu Yan, the cold-blooded third commander, shiver slightly.
"Why should I drop my gun and not you?"
Gu Yan suddenly remembered he still had a hostage.
"Hehe, you can kill me, but my partner can kill you too. In that case, the hostage will still be rescued, and though we’re just ordinary assassins, you’re a high-ranking member of the Celestial Wolf Gang; see if it’s worth it."
At this moment, Chen Tianlong began employing psychological tactics.
