Chapter 825: Chapter 825: Caught
The person did listen to reason, so he stopped grumbling.
However, as time went by and when it was completely dark without any sign of the convoy, the boss directly swore: "Damn it, who the hell gave out the information?"
Someone tentatively asked, "Big Brother, should we keep waiting?"
The man shouted, with a hint of venting, "What else can we do if we don’t wait? What if they come at this time, and we miss out on the opportunity?"
But they didn’t know they would be stuck here for a whole day, with only a meal’s worth of food, and now everyone’s so hungry their stomachs are growling.
The man called "Big Brother" could only comfort everyone: "Hold on a little longer, once we get this done, you can feast on whatever you like in the future."
Hearing this, everyone’s spirits rose again.
But they waited until the moon was high in the sky, and still, the convoy didn’t show up. One by one, they were so hungry they looked like withered eggplants, drooping and listless.
In contrast, He Jinxuan and his team had dinner and conducted a routine check on the vehicles by lamplight, changed several worn-out tires, left someone on night watch, and the rest went to rest.
That night, He Jinxuan stayed awake, constantly observing the situation outside from the second-floor window.
Until the sky began to lighten, just when he thought there would be no action, he saw someone sneaking out of the hotel, and he quickly followed.
Because the sky was still dim, he couldn’t see the person’s face and had to rely on guesswork.
He saw the person find a conspicuous place and used a brush dipped in paint to draw something there.
He Jinxuan knew without looking that the person was leaving marks for others, so once they saw the marks, they’d know they had left that place.
Unfortunately, the person miscalculated. As soon as he left, He Jinxuan destroyed those marks.
When He Jinxuan followed the person back to the parking lot, he saw him using a specially-made tool to sabotage, clearly intending to delay their convoy’s journey.
Just as He Jinxuan was about to do something to interrupt him, he realized that the person had already succeeded.
The person looked around and then stealthily returned to the hotel.
At that moment, with the faint light from the hotel lobby, He Jinxuan saw clearly who it was.
After entering the room, He Jinxuan approached the two night watchmen’s vehicle, seeing that both were asleep, his expression immediately turned cold.
When he opened the door and pushed a few times without waking them, he realized something was wrong. The two had been sabotaged.
He remembered that earlier that night, the person who went out was among those on night watch, so he figured that during the shift change, something was done to them.
Fortunately, he had prepared. Xinyan had given him something before, he took out the small bottle and placed it under their noses, and sure enough, they slowly woke up.
One of them shivered when he saw He Jinxuan’s face: "Captain, why are you here?"
He Jinxuan put a finger to his lips, making a ’shh’ gesture.
The person immediately became cautious, observed the surroundings, and whispered, "How did we fall asleep?"
He Jinxuan lowered his voice, briefly explaining the situation to them, but he did not reveal who the person was, fearing they might not control their expressions and alert the person.
