Chapter 1249: Money Moves People’s Hearts
The temple was very small, and just as Dorman said, there were basically no people.
Standing at the window, Shi Lei could see everything inside the temple wall. He looked for more than ten minutes, but he didn't see even a single monk.
Looking at the time, Dorman said he would arrive in about forty minutes, and now it was nearly half an hour.
At this time, Shi Lei finally saw people moving around in the temple. An older monk walked out of a room barefoot, stood by a large vat in the yard, scooped a bucket of water and drank a sip.
Then, he looked up and looked at the sky, as if to judge the time.
Shi Lei then realized that the monk was already very old. Judging from the wrinkles on his face, he was at least sixty or seventy years old.
It seemed that the old monk called out, and two middle-aged monks appeared in the yard, also barefoot.
After the three exchanged a few words, the two middle-aged monks left the temple, and the old monk knelt on the gravel in the yard, motionless, as if petrified.
Not long after, Shi Lei saw a very old car parked at the entrance of the temple. A man in his thirties walked out of it, walked up the steps quickly, and pushed open the door of the temple.
After the man entered the door, the old monk turned around. The man seemed to say something to the old monk, and then left the temple again.
Standing at the entrance of the temple, the man looked around, as if looking for someone.
Then, the man took out his mobile phone, and Shi Lei also took out his mobile phone and muted it.
When the man put the phone to his ear, the picture of Dorman calling in also appeared on Shi Lei's mobile phone.
"Mr. Shi, didn't you find the temple?" Dorman asked anxiously as soon as the call was connected.
Shi Lei said calmly: "We have been looking for a long time, but we couldn't find the temple you said. Now it is in a grocery store."
He told Dorman the name of the grocery store where he bought the mask just now. Dorman said that he would look for them. Then Shi Lei hung up the phone and continued to stand at the window to observe.
Dorman got into the car and started to search along the street. The car drove very slowly. When the car went a little further, Shi Lei saw that there were obviously two people sitting in the back seat of the car.
Shi Lei's heart sank slightly. He knew that Dorman was unreliable.
The grocery store was not far from the temple, and Dorman found it quickly.
The car stopped, but Dorman did not get out of the car. Instead, the two people in the back seat got out from both sides of the car.
As soon as the two people got out of the car, they took out their pistols and guarded the door of the grocery store on the left and right.
Then, Shi Lei saw several police cars coming out from a corner without sirens. Soon, these police cars surrounded the grocery store.
Shi Lei made a prompt decision, closed the window, went downstairs to pull Xu Zhida up, and left the house and walked in the opposite direction.
"What happened?"
"That guy called the police and is leading the police to siege us."
"Fuck! You really predicted it!"
Shi Lei didn't say much, just lowered his head and kept walking forward with Xu Zhida, and the screen of the mobile phone in his hand was lit up again.
"Doman, it seems that you have given up the possibility of returning to Myanmar."
Shi Lei said directly.
Doman also knew that the matter was exposed. He said in a gloomy voice: "Don't blame me. The police have offered a reward of one million US dollars for you. With this money, I will never have to go back to Myanmar again."
Shi Lei sneered and said: "But now it seems that you can't get the one million reward, and you have completely offended General Kense. Next, you will inevitably face his endless pursuit, even if your sister is his wife."
Throwing the mobile phone directly on the side of the road, Shi Lei and Xu Zhida went into a market next to them, asked for a car, and quickly left the place.
On the way, Shi Lei bought another mobile phone and called General Kense. General Kense was furious when he heard that Doman had called the police.
He immediately said to Shi Lei: "Mr. Shi, I'm so sorry, I didn't expect Dorman to be so bold. Don't worry, I will deal with this matter soon. Dorman, this bastard, I will make him pay the price. So, you find a place to hide first, and I will arrange someone to pick you up."
Shi Lei no longer dared to believe the people sent by General Kense. The police offered him a reward of one million US dollars. There is no doubt that this money was paid by the ferryman's consortium. With such a large reward, anyone may be tempted.
So he said: "No, General Kense, I have complete trust in you, but for your men...Excuse me, the Indian police offered me a reward of one million US dollars, such a large sum of money, and your men here have been away from you for a long time, this is not safe."
General Kense pondered for a while, he knew that Shi Lei was telling the truth. If it was in Myanmar, these people would definitely not dare to betray him in any way, but this is India. If those people can get that one million, they don't have to go back at all. This is really hard to control.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Mr. Shi, there is only one way left. You wait for me in New Delhi. This time I will personally take people to pick you up." Shi Lei said, "General Kense, where are you going to take me out of the country?" "Calcutta, from there we can enter the Bay of Bengal, then go back to Myanmar by sea, and finally send you back to China from the Mekong River."
Shi Lei did not hesitate and said directly: "Then, let's meet in Kolkata. I will find a way to get to Kolkata from New Delhi."
General Kense thought about it and felt that this was a good idea, so he said: "Okay, let's meet in Kolkata. I will take people out now."
Shi Lei hung up the phone, but told the driver to stop the car and got off with Xu Zhida.
Xu Zhida was puzzled and asked: "Why are we getting off the car? Aren't we going to Kolkata?"
Shi Lei said: "The police can't find us, they will definitely search nearby, and there must be chaos over there. And that Doman knew that the matter was exposed, and he would never dare to stay any longer. He must know that we are monitoring nearby, so he knew that he brought the police. He wants to leave, this is the most likely way for him to go, we will wait for him on the side of the road."
The two found a place to squat on the side of the road, and as Shi Lei expected, he soon saw Doman's car.
Picking up a stone, Shi Lei threw it towards the car, and the stone accurately hit the car window glass, smashing the car window glass into pieces.
This is the old-fashioned car, the window glass is not tempered glass, otherwise Shi Lei would not have been able to smash the glass.
Dorman in the car was so scared that he stepped on the brakes immediately.
Shi Lei rushed up immediately, without giving Dorman any chance to react, he reached his hand through the broken glass window, opened the car door, and then crouched down and got in.
A gun was against Dorman's head, and Shi Lei smiled and said, "Mr. Dorman, hello."
Xu Zhida was still in a daze, but he quickly reacted, rushed to the car, opened the back door and got in.
Dorman's face had already turned pale, and he certainly knew that the man in front of him with a gun pointed at his head was undoubtedly Shi Lei.
Shi Lei skillfully searched Dorman's body, found a pistol from him, and handed it to Xu Zhida.
"Mr. Dorman, drive." Shi Lei said leisurely.
And Duoman trembled and said repeatedly: "Mr. Shi, I really didn't mean it, I... I..."
Shi Lei hit Duoman's head with the butt of the gun and scolded him harshly: "Stop talking nonsense! Drive!"
