Chapter 163 Unbelievable Audacity

On a rainy day, the village roads were muddy and difficult to travel. By the time the car arrived at Chu's house, it was already dark, later than expected.

Perhaps due to the heavy rain, the Chu family's gate remained tightly shut.

Meng Youyou opened her umbrella, got out of the car, and went up to knock on the door.

Liu Xiue opened the door and, seeing that it was Meng Youyou, greeted her with a smile and warmly invited her to come in and sit down.

Meng Youyou politely declined, saying, "I'm getting wet, so I won't go in. I don't want to make the house dirty."

Liu Xiu'e called out, "It's alright, it's alright, come in and sit down. You've come all this way, dinner is already cooked, eat something while it's hot before you leave."

Meng Youyou insisted: "Auntie, did Chu Yao go to the hospital today? The application should be finished by now, right? And did you get Grandma's medical certificate?"
Just give me these, I'll take them home tonight and hand them in early.

Meng Youyou turned to the side and pointed to a gray sedan with its low beams on a few meters away, explaining with a smile, "My colleague is still waiting for me in the car, so I won't go in."

"Okay, okay, I've got everything. I'll go call Chu Yao's brother."

A minute later, Chu Yaozu handed over a stack of papers, explaining, "This is a medical certificate issued by the attending physician at the city hospital. Below is a statement of my sister's condition and an application for extension of leave."

Meng Youyou looked down and flipped through the items in her hands one by one, nodding slightly in cooperation, until she saw the last blank sheet of paper.

His gaze froze instantly, his eyes darkening slightly, and he stared for a little longer than usual.

Upon seeing this, Chu Yaozu, who was standing opposite, immediately reminded him: "Comrade Meng, this is the frostbite cream you want. My sister said it's a foreign brand, and she told you to buy the brand with this logo. No other one is as good as this one."

I can't understand the foreign words above either, but you're an educated person, so you should be able to understand them, right?

Meng Youyou nodded calmly, then slowly rolled the stack of papers in her hand into a bundle and replied, "Okay, I'll hand in the application when I get back. Tell your aunt not to worry. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. You can go back now."

Meng Youyou unbuttoned her coat, stuffed the roll of materials she was holding inside to cover herself up, afraid of getting wet from the raindrops, and then opened her umbrella and jogged back to her car.

As the car smoothly passed the village entrance, Meng Youyou suddenly spoke up: "Xiao Li, let's not go back to the team yet."

……

In the western suburbs, there is a light industrial factory area, with rows of low-rise factory buildings arranged in a neat and orderly fashion.

The factory buildings with red brick walls have moss growing rampant between the bricks; the corrugated iron factory area has a more modern and angular design; and in the peripheral areas, there are a few small workshops with roofs, which are on the verge of collapse under the ravages of wind and rain, like products about to be eliminated by the times.

Jiang Zheng went deep into the factory area and walked all the way to the very end, where he finally saw Xu Penggang's men, led by Li Yasong, waiting at the factory gate.

A medium-sized, blue corrugated iron factory building sits among many surrounding factories; it is the most ordinary and inconspicuous of them all.

Jiang Zheng was genuinely surprised; he hadn't expected Xu Penggang to have his trump card hidden in such an ordinary and visible place.

This factory area is well-known locally, a mixed bag of people, with a large number of factory workers, business partners, and workers' families coming and going, resulting in a significant daily flow of people.

That's incredibly audacious!
But as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. This move, though risky, is not without reason.

Before this, Jiang Zheng had never doubted that it would be in this location.

In addition, there is no need to conceal the purchase and sale of goods; there is a legitimate excuse.

Jiang Zheng was about to walk inside when Li Yasong stretched out a hand to stop him. Jiang Zheng raised an eyebrow and asked with interest.

Li Yasong nodded slightly and explained, "The boss means that he will invite you in for a visit after you successfully complete the transaction with this batch of goods."

Jiang Zheng glanced inside. The lighting wasn't very bright, and there were busy figures moving around the operating machines. Then he looked around the doorway and asked, "Where's the goods?"

Li Yasong raised his hand to indicate the left, "The loading is complete. One truck is full of auto parts, and the other is full of tires."

Jiang Zheng looked in the direction the other was pointing and saw two large trucks, their cargo compartments packed full.

Judging by appearance, the "main character" mixed in weighs at least three tons, which is a chilling number. Once the goods in these two vehicles are released, it means how many families will be torn apart.
Children will lose their parents' companionship and love, growing up in long periods of loneliness and fear; the elderly will watch helplessly as their children are consumed by drugs, feeling powerless and heartbroken.

Countless lives will be distorted or even destroyed by them.

Jiang Zheng looked away, his tone nonchalant: "Where's the bomb?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yasong glanced at both sides, took two steps forward, and whispered in the man's ear, "As the boss instructed, a bomb has been placed in the middle of the cargo in each of the two carriages."

Jiang Zheng just smiled: "Only two? Aren't the other two cars in front and behind?" The smile in the man's eyes sent chills down one's spine.

He was referring to the two vans at the very front and back of the cargo truck, which were used for carrying people.

Li Yasong was silent for a few seconds before slowly replying, "Brother Zheng, you know what's going on. The boss is prepared to burn his bridges this time. If the deal fails, then we'll have to wipe him out completely."

Jiang Zheng reacted indifferently to this, as if he had expected it.

After a long pause, Li Yasong said, "I personally led the people to plant the bombs. I confirmed that all four bombs were connected to the detonator you have."

So the initiative is still in your own hands, Zheng Ge.

It was very quiet, yet meaningful.

……

The sky was extremely dark, and the moon was completely hidden by the dark clouds.

The vehicles traveled at a steady speed through the torrential rain, maintaining a proper distance from each other. Jiang Zheng sat in the passenger seat of the first vehicle.

Just after midnight, the vehicle arrived at a large farm located on the border between Panju City and Ximing City.

The buyer has been waiting here for a long time.

The car stopped, and Jiang Zheng got out first. Someone quickly got out of the back seat and held an umbrella for him.

A simple brick and tile shed was crowded with about a dozen people standing inside, and cigarette butts littered the ground.

Jiang Zheng stepped in, and the only middle-aged man sitting in the awning immediately stood up and extended his hand to him, "Young Master Zheng, I've long admired your name!"

Jiang Zheng reached out and shook hands with him, "Mr. Feng, it's a pleasure to meet you."

The roads were slippery due to the rain, which caused a slight delay. Sorry for the long wait.

"It's alright," Boss Feng said with a smile, withdrawing his hand. "Seeing is believing. I never expected that the famous Young Master Zheng would be so handsome. It's truly unexpected."
