Chapter 409 Chapter 406 Someone Comes in, Someone Goes Out
Zhuang Xuteng explained his action plan to Ge Gongdao and others, and after obtaining their consent, he began to follow and track. He changed his appearance and clothes, and went to Assassin Property Company for investigation the next morning.
Because the company was small and had to consider the actual operating costs, Assassin Property did not purchase its own office building, but instead took six rooms, which was considered a quarter floor, in an office building in the upper city that specialized in renting offices. They had a large office, two reception rooms and conference rooms, a finance room, a manager's office, and another room for equipment and storage.
As long as you share space with others, your security capabilities will have an upper limit. Zhuang Xuteng could easily get to the same floor of Assassin Property through the other three companies. Based on the terrain of other floors with the same settings, he could easily determine the security boundary of the property company. After that, as long as he turned around carefully and cautiously, kept stealth, and remained vigilant, he soon found out the monitoring range and access control methods of the property company.
Climb up to the ceiling from the bathroom in the corridor, use the ceiling space and ventilation ducts to move, and slowly move to a position where you can see the door of the property company. Zhuang Xuteng took out an expansion bolt from the tool kit and replaced one of the connections between the suspended ceiling and the ceiling to increase its load-bearing capacity. He then used this bolt to stay in the suspended ceiling space to monitor the property company.
Most suspended ceilings in office buildings cannot bear the weight of a normal person, unless the stalker knows how to disperse his weight and move in the right way. However, moving is moving, and the frame structure of the suspended ceiling cannot bear this extra weight for a long time. The only way is to strengthen its load-bearing capacity. Zhuang Xuteng is now very grateful for these skills taught by Professor Prince, and levitation is also an important factor in allowing him to maintain his position.
Another secret of stealth surveillance is not to use cameras, but to use the naked eye. Prince told Zhuang Xuteng that preventing cameras does have many convenient places, including allowing the stalker to return to a safe area and record the content for repeated viewing. But cameras are always made of glass, and they must have a reflection angle. No matter how to evade, the light will not turn, and the moving light source and the moving observer will always have a probability of seeing the reflection of the camera, thereby exposing the entire monitoring operation.
Human eyes also reflect light, but people are more proactive than cameras. They can avoid being observed to reflect light by closing their eyes or squinting. Therefore, Prince believes that cameras should only be used when the observation distance can be extended. The closer to the observed target, the more people need to exert their own abilities.
Considering Abu Asan's former identity as PCPD and his fairly good assassination ability, Zhuang Xuteng monitored him in the safest way, starting from the periphery of the company and approaching his core work circle step by step. It took Zhuang Xuteng three days to find a way to avoid the security of Assassin Property Company and let him directly reach the top of Abu Asan's desk. And he also found out Abu Asan's schedule here: Tomorrow night, Abu Asan will go to the Night Wanderer Nightclub to meet a friend.
"I don't know what kind of friend it will be-it would be great if it was the two who acted together that day." Zhuang Xuteng left the hiding place after getting this information, and went home to stretch his muscles first, fortunately, he showed his best condition at the Night Wanderer Nightclub.
It's the Night Wanderer again. Is Abu Asan related to the Canghuo Gang? This possibility cannot be ruled out, and it cannot be taken for granted. Every nightclub and bar in Peicheng that can be put on the stage, except for a few "guest houses" directly operated by the company, are all related to gangs. It is impossible to become a gang member just by going to these places, right?
Zhuang Xuteng is ready to attack again in the form of "Dr. Sen". Think carefully, this identity has many advantages. Everyone needs an implant doctor, so it is reasonable for an implant doctor to appear in any occasion. If it is managed well, it can be used as a perfect cover for reconnaissance and infiltration, and it is also a very good means of withdrawal.
There are three means of withdrawal in the mission: running fast, pretending well, and hiding deep. Running fast is the first choice. If you grab the time, you grab the opportunity. If you can't run, pretending well is a higher priority than hiding deeply. Mercenaries usually pretend to be wounded, PCPD, passers-by, etc. according to the situation. Zhuang Xuteng has one more choice than them: implant doctor.
With a good memory, he would not be exposed in terms of theoretical knowledge; with the necromancy of the spirit system, he would not have any problems in practical operation. Zhuang Xuteng took the opportunity of going to the Night Walker again to think about it. He decided to completely establish the character of Dr. Mori and let him move from paper to reality.
Zhuang Xuteng did it as soon as he thought of it. He immediately called for help, and the first choice was Nightingale and Rock Bird. However, the two were called away by Lucy for something, and they were in the process of information gathering and intelligence sorting, so they could not get away. So Zhuang Xuteng could only settle for the second best and call Dao Ge to discuss it.
Dao Ge could always make time for Zhuang Xuteng, and he also agreed with Zhuang Xuteng's plan very much, and asked directly, "How do you want to proceed?"
"Open a private clinic and only accept specific customers, that is, potential targets that can make us money." Zhuang Xuteng had already thought about these details in his mind, and said, "All customers can only come if they have made an appointment, so that it will not interfere with the mercenary mission. I thought that this clinic should be separated from our implant maintenance store, the farther the better, so that no one can connect the two places."
Ge Gongdao nodded. If Zhuang Xuteng didn't say it, he would have reminded him to pay attention to this point. "Since you have thought about it, and now you have a lot of free time, just do it! What do you need me to do?"
"I don't know how to open this kind of clinic." Zhuang Xuteng said: "Before I was hired as a mercenary, I only worked on the assembly line in the factory and had no knowledge in this area. Later, I was also a hands-off manager in the store and didn't learn anything. Now I think about it and I regret it. I should have learned more."
"Haha, you already know enough! For such unimportant things, you can just spend money to solve them, and you don't need to do it yourself. I'll ask someone to ask you what procedures and qualifications are required. These days, as long as you give some money to the city government, gangs can open a barber shop to sell blue savages, and clinics should be easier."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Zhuang Xuteng sighed and said: "I originally thought of finding two sisters and asking them to help check it online, but they were all dragged to work."
"Indeed, the two of them have bad implants and are under great pressure in life, so they can only work hard." Dao Brother thought for a moment and said, "What have you been doing these past two days? Have you really been stalking?"
"Yes, stalking. It's a good opportunity to practice stalking skills." Zhuang Xuteng admitted generously, and then said, "Brother Dao, you can't just be busy with the affairs of the Moat Company. Are you going to practice martial arts? Do you want to practice the Seven Flashes? If you stop moving forward, your nervous system will degenerate, and your skills will also decline!"
"Indeed, I'm having a headache now! Moat is very busy here, and there is not enough time to rest. I can only squeeze out time to maintain my physical condition and hope that I won't decline. I really want to find you to practice my skills now. If I don't work harder, I'll be rusty."
"Then come!"
"Not now, but take a day off this weekend! Damn, I'm a senior director, not a hard worker. I can't do everything! I have to deal with a few people, slap them in the face, and let them take up the work!" Engineer Ge Dao became more and more angry and soon ended the call. Fortunately, he was not so angry that he forgot to ask someone about opening a clinic. He caught the lawyers in the company and asked them to prepare the materials, which was also an opportunity for them to make extra money.
The matter was settled, but it was impossible to succeed immediately. Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao both knew that this "Dr. Sen" was just a fake identity. To make it real, it was equivalent to not only creating something out of nothing, but also making this "something" blossom and bear fruit. The lawyers could only prepare various procedures under normal conditions, and there must be a lot of fake work in addition. The fake part cannot be separated from the help of information spies, so we have to wait until Nightingale and Rock Sparrow can spare time.
Without a clinic, Dr. Sen will not be delayed from going to the bar. Zhuang Xuteng prepared and went to the Night Tour God Nightclub early, tipped the waiter, and booked a booth on the first floor. In order to better conceal his tracks, he found two companions, a man and a woman, and asked them to stay in the booth first in the name of "waiting for friends". Anyway, if the tip is enough, you can do anything, so Zhuang Xuteng asked the two people to sit and wait, and not to bother him.
This situation is quite common in night walkers, mainly when asking for favors or inviting people to dinner. You can't start playing before the invited person arrives or the business is discussed, right?
"When someone comes, you should serve him well. I don't need him." Zhuang Xuteng didn't make an appointment with anyone, and these instructions were just part of the disguise. "Don't be idle here, you two, introduce me to the above ways of playing. You have to learn about it when you invite people here in the future. I heard that if you don't go to the third floor, it's like coming for nothing? Is that true?"
Seeing that Zhuang Xuteng was willing to spend more, the two "companion" staff thought that they could get a commission from the introduction fee, so they introduced it enthusiastically. Zhuang Xuteng listened with one ear, and stared at the venue with the other ear and two eyes, waiting for Abu Asan to appear.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Abu Asan came in alone from the main entrance. After he came in, he seemed a little cramped, his head kept turning left and right, his eyes scanned up and down, showing that he was very unfamiliar with this place. He was also very unskilled when dealing with the waiter, frowning from time to time. Zhuang Xuteng activated enhanced listening and captured their conversation in a targeted manner. It turned out that the waiter was talking to him about tonight's activities and the charges for various services. Abu Asan was worried about the latter.
No money? Is that guy short of money? Zhuang Xuteng thought about it and felt that it was reasonable. Abu Asan worked in PCPD before. As a senior detective, although he would never be short of money, he certainly could not afford the high consumption of the night walker. After he joined Assassin Property Company, he had shares in his hands, and his income would definitely be much higher than that of the PCPD period, but the time was still short, the accumulation was insufficient, and the consumption habits could not be changed.
Abu Asan hesitated for a moment and thought that the second floor was still too expensive. It was painful to suddenly become a member, so he decided to find a booth on the first floor. The night activities had not started yet, and there were many empty booths, so the waiter asked him which one he liked. Abu Asan looked at the scene and measured the view and safety of each booth. He first took a fancy to Zhuang Xuteng's, but it was a pity that it was already occupied. So he slapped his forehead and chose the one next to Zhuang Xuteng.
Isn't this a coincidence? Zhuang Xuteng held up the drink to cover his mouth, so that no one could see his smile. After just one sip, the filter implant gave a warning that the drink was mixed with a low dose of safe blue powder. Alas, this night wanderer has not changed his bad habits, and it seems that he will go down this path to the end.
"There is safety blue in it. I have exceeded the amount recommended by the doctor today and cannot use it anymore. Can you replace it with one without additives?" Zhuang Xuteng said to the two "partners": "These don't need to be returned, bring me some decent drinks, such as alcohol and water."
The conversation between him and his "partner" was also heard by Abu Asan, and there was no flaw in this conversation. Abu Asan felt more cramped after entering the booth, and felt that the sofa here was uncomfortable no matter what posture he used. At this time, Zhuang Xuteng was already asking about the service function of the VIP membership card. After learning that he could register for the "safety blue-free habit", he decided to apply for one.
A membership card costs 150,000 euros, which is just a deposit, and consumption is not included. Zhuang Xuteng considered that in order to make the character of "Dr. Sen" more complete, he had to design entertainment activities for him. In comparison, he was more familiar with the environment of the Night Wanderer, and the route of entry and exit was in his mind, and Dr. Sen had already appeared here, so although this place is expensive, it is still the best choice.
Abu Asan was somewhat envious when he heard the man next door throw out 150,000 yuan with just a wave of his hand. At the same time, he also believed that he could do the same in a while. His only purpose in coming to Assassin Properties was money, and he made no secret of it. Here, he could get in touch with higher-end customers, touch a larger cash flow, and have the opportunity to share a piece of the pie. As for PCPD, that was in the past.
Someone comes in and someone goes out, Abu Asan has always believed so. Ever since Abu Asan encountered an explosion at the swearing-in ceremony and luckily escaped, he knew that his fate with PCPD was over and he should get out. He was not afraid of death, and an explosion could not scare him. But he was afraid of dying worthlessly and without benefit. No matter how many people attended his funeral, stood guard and bowed to him, and made speeches for him in tears, his widow would not get much money, and he was still gone. This was not appropriate, very inappropriate.
After the explosion, his psychological counseling services were downgraded, and the price level of medical rehabilitation was lower than expected. He thought it was all Chief Pace's fault. That bastard who couldn't die must have asked for the pension, condolence money and treatment funds. Especially after asking his colleague's widow about the amount of the pension, he was more convinced of this. Therefore, no matter how the PCPD promised him a promotion, he insisted on leaving, no matter what.
It was easy to leave, but it was difficult to find a place to take him in. Fortunately, he still knew some friends. As long as he could show enough sincerity, he would have the opportunity to work at Assassin Properties. Abu Asan showed his determination and ability, seized this opportunity, and got the results he was satisfied with. Shares, positions, income, he got what he was promised before, and he also saw more and better.
Who doesn't want more and better? Abu Asan's treat here today is all to pave the way for the future. Since joining Assassin Properties, he knew that there was not much development in this company's property, and he wanted to get involved in business outside of property.
