Chapter 414: An Unexpected Discovery
The man in the room was chatting happily with a curly-haired beauty while watching TV.
Suddenly, the room door burst open with a loud bang, startling him.
He quickly shouted, "Who are you guys? What do you want?"
After receiving Lin Tian’s orders, the eight soldiers didn’t waste any words with him. They went straight up and used handkerchiefs to knock out the three women, then looked at the man menacingly.
Lin Tian smiled and also walked in.
"Tie him up, we’ll take him away later."
As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, the man pulled out a pitch-black pistol from under the pillow.
Unfortunately, before he could aim the pistol, a soldier kicked him in the face, knocking him off the bed and unconscious.
Following Lin Tian’s instructions, the man was tied up and then dragged away.
Then, Lin Tian went to the second floor. The team, which had just dispersed, quickly regrouped. No one was injured, and the enemies in the villa were all knocked out, unconscious.
"Let’s go check the basement."
The group walked unimpeded to the basement and immediately saw those forty-something conspicuous boxes.
The brothers pried open all the boxes and presented them in front of Lin Tian. Lin Tian squinted as he took a look. Wow!
Everyone gasped; these were heavy weapons.
Lin Tian stepped forward, picked up a pistol, and began inspecting it. He pulled the safety and tested it; by the feel alone, he knew these guns couldn’t be compared to the Security Management Institute’s equipment.
But they were pretty refined, and Lin Tian and everyone knew they hit it big this time.
With joy, Lin Tian asked everyone to pack up these things and take them away. Just as he was about to leave, Wu Yong discovered something new.
Wu Yong was carrying a bag of white stuff and ran to Lin Tian, "Tian, I found several boxes like this in the corner of the basement, all filled with these things. Isn’t this powder?"
Lin Tian took the bag of powder from him and examined it.
Lin Tian handed the bag back to Wu Yong and said, "Get a few guys to put those boxes of powder in a conspicuous position, and then retreat immediately. We can’t stay here long."
Then Lin Tian walked out of the basement and stood at the villa’s entrance, dialed a phone number.
The noisy ringtone woke Xu Ning’an from her sleep. She groggily picked up the phone, hung up without checking the caller ID, and went back to sleep.
Looking at the hung-up phone, Lin Tian was speechless and dialed again.
Woken up again, Xu Ning’an was angry. She answered the phone and shouted, "Who are you? Crazy, calling in the middle of the night!"
Lin Tian stood there dazed, then shook his head with a bitter smile, "Miss Xu, it’s me. I’m calling you at this hour to report a case."
Xu Ning’an recognized Lin Tian’s voice, and her mind instantly became clearer, "What case are you reporting?"
"I discovered a large number of contraband hidden in a villa in the northwest of the city, so I called you first. With so much contraband, your boss should give you a big commendation." Lin Tian said with a smile.
Xu Ning’an suddenly sat up from the bed, sweeping away the sleepiness with a surge of joy.
The northwest villa was a place she had mentioned to Lin Tian herself. Now Lin Tian was calling, obviously he made his move, and now she’s left to handle the aftermath.
She hadn’t expected there to be contraband inside.
"Alright, I won’t chat with you, I’m about to dispatch here. By the way, how are the people inside?"
"Don’t worry, they’re fine, just unconscious."
"That’s good, we’re coming over right away, you better leave there soon."
"I’m leaving now, I’ll treat you to dinner in a couple of days." Lin Tian said, then hung up the phone, smiling unwittingly. Du Dahai is in for a rough time this time.
After loading the forty-plus large boxes, Lin Tian and his team returned smoothly to Black Gold Security Company.
After placing those large boxes in a secure location, Wu Yong and the retired soldiers seemed very excited.
The reason was simple, Wu Yong, this country bumpkin, had never handled a real gun before, now there were so many. How could he not be excited? As for those retired soldiers, seeing the guns was like seeing their dear old dad, wanting to hug them to sleep at night.
But no matter how excited they were, Lin Tian forbid anyone from touching those things. If you want guns, buy them from the black market separately.
After all, these were stolen goods. If they were discovered by Du Dahai, it would directly provoke a fallout, leading to a straight-up battle, and that’s no joke.
Although Du Dahai is an enemy of Lin Tian, their feud hasn’t escalated to a full-scale gang war.
But if these weapons were discovered, it would be different, likely serving as a catalyst for conflict.
If Lin Tian and Du Dahai went to war, Bai Shishi would surely get dragged in, disrupting the underground balance that has existed in Kanyue City for decades.
Moreover, Black Gold Security Company currently lacks the strength to confront Du Dahai, and other gangs, big and small, would also intervene.
Though Kanyue City seems peaceful, it’s already a turbulent undercurrent.
These weapons not only can’t be used temporarily, this matter must be kept secret, as if it never happened.
Wu Yong and everyone understood the severity of the matter, though disappointed, it was only momentarily, because they can still buy some equipment from the black market, but the bought ones are surely not as refined as those snatched tonight.
"Where’s the guy we kidnapped tonight?" Lin Tian asked.
"In a room, let me take you there to see." Wu Yong said, then led the way.
The two walked into the room where the man was held, entering they saw a shirtless man, with only a white towel covering his legs. Oh, and a smelly sock stuffed in his mouth. He looked extremely pathetic, as if he’d been roughed up dozens of times.
When the man saw Wu Yong come in, he struggled up from the chair, and mumbled incessantly, as if he had something to say.
