Chapter 200, Target 1: Gao Zhanlong
Chapter 200: The First Target - Gao Zhanlong
Kuitou Street is located south of Jinling High School.
As night fell, Ye Shaohong brought Li Yunlong and Chi Tiecheng to this place.
Instead of wandering around the neighborhood, they went straight into a small teahouse at the entrance of the alley and sat down in a private room by the window on the second floor.
After ordering a pot of Biluochun tea and two plates of dried fruit, the three of them stopped talking and began to observe their surroundings.
Seven or eight minutes later, Li Yunlong was the first to look away.
"Team leader, we've got a general idea of the situation."
"Gao Zhanlong's residence is at the deepest part of this street. There are three high points nearby, two of which are residential houses. Only the water tower on the west side can be used as a sniping point." Li Yunlong is a descendant of the Northern Flying Thieves Swallow Gate. Although he has not received formal military training, he has his own unique insights into terrain and topography, given his years of experience on the streets and his business of breaking and entering.
Upon hearing Li Yunlong's words, Ye Shaohong did not rush to make a judgment, but instead turned to look at Chi Tiecheng.
Chi Tiecheng was also observing the water tower on the west side. He stretched out his right fist, raised a thumb, and closed one eye to calculate the distance.
He was still muttering to himself.
After a moment, Chi Tiecheng nodded.
"More than 130 meters, the distance is just right, but I don't know what the terrain is like nearby."
"We need to investigate further at a closer distance!"
Compared to Li Yunlong, Chi Tiecheng's sniping talent was innate. As the future leader of the Jellyfish Assassination Group, he definitely had the authority to speak on the art of sniping. Ye Shaohong also valued his opinion.
"If the terrain nearby is suitable, how confident are you in carrying out this sniping mission?"
Ye Shaohong picked up the teacup on the table, took a small sip, and asked a question in a calm and indifferent manner.
"If the terrain and the weapon are suitable, I am absolutely confident in carrying out a sniping mission at this distance."
It has to be said, Chi Tiecheng is truly arrogant.
Even though he hasn't fully matured yet, his arrogance is already showing, and he doesn't even try to hide it when facing his superior, Ye Shaohong.
"interesting."
"Alright, let's go take a look together later."
"There's no rush. Let's wait and see. According to the intelligence I've received, Gao Zhanlong hasn't left work yet."
"If nothing unexpected happens, he should be back soon. We don't have any recent photos of him. If we want to lock onto him without him noticing, we can only wait here."
Setting down his teacup, Ye Shaohong grabbed a handful of melon seeds, cracking them open as he looked at Li Yunlong and Chi Tiecheng.
"You guys should eat too."
"Even though this is in a private room, I'm just eating and drinking by myself. If other people saw me, they would get suspicious."
Li Yunlong and Chi Tiecheng exchanged a glance. Of course, they dared not refuse Ye Shaohong, so they could only pick up the dried fruits and snacks and eat them carefully.
"Yunlong".
"Did you check the home addresses of the people on the list I gave you yesterday?"
"How many people have been confirmed?"
This operation involved a large number of people, so Ye Shaohong delegated some of the tasks to ensure a safe operation. Of course, he didn't have many people he could trust right now, only a few trusted subordinates.
As for the allocation of other personnel, it is being arranged in an orderly manner, and there is no rush for the time being.
"Of the five targets, including Gao Zhanlong, only three have been confirmed so far."
"Team leader, give me two more days, and I'm sure I can find out all the family information for the remaining two people."
When Ye Shaohong asked him about work matters, Li Yunlong quickly put down the dried fruit in his hand, stood up, and answered cautiously, while secretly observing Ye Shaohong's expression.
Seeing Ye Shaohong frown slightly, Li Yunlong's heart immediately jumped.
"The speed is a bit slow."
"This isn't like you at all."
"I need to get all their family information by tomorrow evening. Don't let me down..."
Before Ye Shaohong could finish speaking, the roar of a car engine came from the direction of the entrance to Kuitou Alley, and Ye Shaohong immediately perked up.
He turned to the side and his gaze fell on the car's license plate.
Ye Shaohong immediately smiled.
"Looks like we're in luck. Gao Zhanlong is back just as we get here."
"Yunlong and Tiecheng, you two are the main executors of this mission. You must confirm the target's identity."
As he spoke, Ye Shaohong had already walked to the window of the private room. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag.
As soon as he made his move, two rickshaw pullers downstairs at the teahouse immediately sprang into action.
They pulled their rickshaws together and ran towards the street corner. After running only a dozen meters, the rickshaws they were pulling got mixed up. Then the two men stopped running and stood at the scene of the accident, cursing each other.
As they continued arguing, the two started fighting again.
This immediately attracted the attention of passersby. The Chinese people have a long-standing tradition of watching exciting events.
Soon, a dozen or so onlookers gathered around the two rickshaw pullers.
They kept pointing and whispering, seemingly oblivious to the chaos, and before they knew it, they had blocked the road. Just then, Gao Zhanlong's vehicle arrived.
They were blocked at the entrance of the alley by the crowd.
At first, Gao Zhanlong was very patient and did not rush to urge the people in front.
Three or four minutes passed, but the two rickshaw pullers fighting ahead showed no sign of stopping, and Gao Zhanlong inside the rickshaw grew anxious. He honked the horn forcefully.
They wanted to disperse the onlookers and also get the two rickshaw pullers to stop.
But these two rickshaw pullers were specially arranged by Ye Shaohong. Before they could complete Ye Shaohong's orders, they would fight until they were bruised and exhausted, but they dared not back down.
This infuriated Gao Zhanlong, who was inside the car.
He honked the car horn again, but seeing that it still had no effect, he opened the car door and got out.
Perhaps to increase his intimidation factor, he pulled out a handgun from his waistband as he walked, and when he reached the crowd, he simply pushed them aside with his hand.
Then he raised his gun and pointed the dark muzzle at the heads of the two rickshaw pullers who were fighting.
With the gun pointed at them, the two rickshaw pullers who had been ordered to block the road dared not make a move.
They stopped what they were doing, cursing and swearing, and each pulled their bikes away, splitting up and leaving the alley. The crowd, seeing there was no more excitement to see, also shook their heads and dispersed.
Meanwhile, inside the teahouse, at the window, Li Yunlong and Chi Tiecheng also smiled.
"It shouldn't be wrong."
"According to the information we have, the person in front of us is similar in build and appearance to Gao Zhanlong, so he should be our target."
"Team leader, let's go to the water tower now and scout out the surrounding terrain."
"If there are no problems, we can start tomorrow!"
