Chapter 865: Chapter 866 Very Cunning
Since you want us to follow the thod and route you specified to deliver the intelligence, I’ll have to do so tracking.
So, Lin Yifan wrote the so-called “intelligence” and then contacted the intelligence organization’s contact by phone, asking them to direct him on how to deliver the intelligence.
After learning that Lin Yifan had written the intelligence, the intelligence organization’s contact ordered Lin Yifan to go to the bus stop on Yinghua Fifth Road.
Lin Yifan parted ways with Ding Laoda, asking Ding Laoda to watch everything secretly.
Alone, Lin Yifan arrived at the bus stop on Yinghua Fifth Road and called the intelligence organization’s contact again to receive further instructions.
After observing that Lin Yifan was alone and not being followed, the contact ordered Lin Yifan to walk fifty ters along the road to the left.
Lin Yifan walked according to the route specified by the contact.
After advancing fifty ters, Lin Yifan asked the contact what to do next.
The contact ordered him to throw the “intelligence” into the nearby trash can, then return to the bus stop and take the bus to leave.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yifan threw the “intelligence” into the nearby trash can.
Since Ding Laoda was observing secretly, he wasn’t worried about losing track.
After that, he returned to the bus stop and took the bus to leave.
Not long after he left, an old scavenger carrying a burlap bag ca to the garbage can where “intelligence” was thrown and started rummaging through the trash.
Ding Laoda knew this was just a façade, so he closely watched what the old scavenger took from the trash can.
He saw the old scavenger put all the trash he found into the burlap bag, whether it was scraps of paper or useless glass bottles.
After finishing, the old scavenger hunched over and moved forward slowly.
Ding Laoda followed closely in secret.
This old scavenger was too suspicious, possibly being the intelligence organization’s contact or soone sent to retrieve the “intelligence.”
He guessed the contact did this to prevent being tracked.
No matter who caught this old scavenger, they might not get any useful clues.
So, this was the cunningness of the intelligence organization’s contact.
After eighty ters, the old scavenger left Yinghua Fifth Road and turned into Huanhai Road, then threw the burlap bag onto a pickup truck and walked away nonchalantly.
The pickup truck started and left imdiately.
Ding Laoda cursed silently. To catch up with this pickup truck, he would have to use Qinggong; but performing Qinggong in the busy city would attract the citizens’ attention, and he might be recognized.
After considering for a mont, he decided to discuss it with Lin Yifan.
After three bus stops, Lin Yifan, just getting off the bus, received a call from Ding Laoda.
Learning that the “intelligence” was taken away by a pickup truck, he imdiately asked Ding Laoda which direction the pickup truck was heading.
Ding Laoda answered without hesitation, “The pickup truck headed towards Dongfang Road.”
Lin Yifan imdiately opened the map app to check his location and the location of Dongfang Road.
Finding that it was only a few streets away, he set off at once, taking shortcuts to track.
On the other side, Ding Laoda made every effort to follow the pickup truck and continuously reported its location to Lin Yifan.
After a while of tracking, he found he really couldn’t keep up, so he let Lin Yifan track it alone.
Believing it was his destiny, Lin Yifan dared not delay, deploying his fastest speed to catch up with the pickup truck.
Finally, at an intersection, he saw the red pickup truck.
The pickup truck turned left and continued forward.
Without hesitation, Lin Yifan followed.
After a short while, seeing a taxi parked by the roadside, he got in and asked the taxi driver to follow the red pickup truck ahead.
The taxi driver, without thinking, imdiately started the car to give chase.
As long as the passenger could pay, he would do anything.
The pickup truck driver had no idea he was being watched, but he was simply following orders, responsible for delivering the burlap bag to the specified location; whether he was tracked didn’t concern him.
Driving all the way to a secluded seaside, he tied the burlap bag tightly and threw it into the sea.
Finishing this, he drove away without looking back.
Lin Yifan didn’t understand why the pickup truck driver did this. Didn’t he know that burlap bags easily let water in? What if the “intelligence” inside got blurred by seawater?
There must be a reason for all this; he thought the burlap bag might not be an ordinary burlap bag.
In this remote area, it wasn’t convenient for him to get off the taxi because he didn’t know if the intelligence organization’s contact was around; if he appeared rashly, it would disrupt the whole plan.
Luckily, there was a small village not far away, so he got off there.
After getting off, he hid in the woods, secretly observing the spot where the pickup truck driver had thrown the burlap bag, watching for anyone to appear.
Besides that, he also looked down the cliff to see if the burlap bag was still there.
Seeing the burlap bag still floating on the sea, he felt relieved.
As expected, the burlap bag was modified to be waterproof.
Lin Yifan thought the intelligence organization’s contact would soon retrieve the floating burlap bag, but he waited and waited until dusk without seeing anyone appear.
As dusk fell, he felt increasingly uneasy.
If the contact acted at night, he would be at a disadvantage, as he wouldn’t be able to see when the burlap bag was retrieved.
To prevent this undesirable situation, he had to sneak closer to the nearest bush to the burlap bag and wait in ambush.
Despite getting as close as he could, he was still fifty ters away from the burlap bag.
Fifty ters, in the pitch-black night, was a distance with low visibility; he wasn’t sure if he could keep a constant eye on the burlap bag.
Besides, he had already sent a ssage to Ding Laoda, asking him to monitor the area within a few miles to hold the upper hand.
It was like the mantis stalking the cicada while unaware of the oriole behind.
Lin Yifan didn’t take his eyes off the burlap bag floating on the sea, not daring to be distracted for a mont.
He waited like this until dawn, still not seeing anyone appear.
After staring for almost an entire night without blinking, Lin Yifan was both physically and ntally exhausted; fortunately, he had his Cultivation Power to support him, otherwise, he didn’t know if he could have persisted.
After keeping watch all night without success, he began to doubt whether the “intelligence” had been taken by the contact of the intelligence organization.
So, he sent a ssage to Ding Laoda, asking if there were any mistakes during tracking.
Ding Laoda truthfully replied there were none.
This was strange. If there were no mistakes, why hadn’t the contact co to retrieve the “intelligence”?
