Chapter 282 Recalling previous intelligence and various details
Hours passed, and Su Ming remained lurking in the shadows of the warehouse, changing positions several times to avoid being spotted by the patrolling security guards. Although the long wait had left him somewhat exhausted, his mind remained highly focused.
Finally, Yang Cheng and the man in the black suit walked out of the office building. They headed straight for the parking lot, and Su Ming took the opportunity to quietly follow them. He had to figure out their next move; it was crucial for his next move.
In the parking lot, Yang Cheng's car started slowly, and Su Ming quickly got in his own car and followed them. In order not to arouse suspicion, he kept a reasonable distance, and from time to time disguised himself as part of other vehicles to avoid letting others notice his intention to follow.
The car drove out of the city and headed towards a remote industrial area. The buildings were dilapidated, there were few pedestrians around, and the air was filled with the smell of industrial waste. Su Ming's brow furrowed slightly. He was not familiar with this area, but he was certain that the other party's choice of such a remote place was no accident.
The car finally stopped in front of an abandoned factory. Yang Cheng and the man in the black suit got out, looked around, and then walked into the factory. Su Ming waited for a moment, and after confirming that no one else was there, he quickly got out of the car and quietly approached the factory.
The factory was dimly lit, its walls mottled, and clearly abandoned for years. The footsteps of Yang Cheng and the man in the black suit echoed in the empty corridor. Su Ming followed them, using the shadows of the walls for cover and trying not to make any noise.
"We are ready. What remains is the information you provide." The voice of the man in the black suit sounded in the empty space, echoing a little unclearly, but Su Ming could still hear the key part.
"The intelligence is still being processed." Yang Cheng's voice was slightly indifferent, "But your people must first ensure the safe transfer of funds."
"Don't worry, the funding issue has been resolved. Now, the most important thing is to make sure no one interferes with us." The man in the black suit continued, with an unquestionable threat in his tone.
Su Ming's heart tightened. This transaction obviously involved extremely sensitive information, and Yang Cheng and the man in the black suit were just the tip of the iceberg. The power hidden behind them was far more complicated than he had imagined.
He knew he couldn't act rashly, but this tracking had already given him a lot of key information. He quickly retreated outside the factory, preparing to leave temporarily to organize his thoughts and find a better way out.
Back in the car, Su Ming leaned back in his seat, his thoughts flooding in. He had to find a way to expose a flaw in Yang Cheng or the man in the black suit in order to pursue this clue to the end. But the most difficult question now was how powerful the organization behind them was. If this information leaked, the consequences would be disastrous.
After thinking for a moment, Su Ming decided not to go back for the time being. He called Han Jie and said in a low voice, "I need you to help me arrange a raid. The target is Yang Cheng. I have confirmed the location. Try to arrange it before their next transaction."
Han Jie on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then said: "I will take care of it. But you have to make sure you don't get exposed."
"Don't worry, I know my limits." Su Ming replied with a firm look in his eyes.
After hanging up the phone, Su Ming didn't leave, but chose to stay nearby and continue observing. He knew that things were not over yet, and the real battle had just begun. He had to make sure to grasp every detail in the next action and find the key point to break the situation.
Su Ming closed his eyes, leaned back in the driver's seat, and tried to calm his thoughts. Although he appeared calm on the surface, his inner anxiety and tension surged like an undercurrent. He knew that time was running out and Yang Cheng's actions could not be delayed any longer. Every minute of delay would allow the enemy's plan to advance further.
"We must find Yang Cheng's weakness as soon as possible." Su Ming repeated this sentence in his mind, tapping the steering wheel lightly with his fingers, his eyes scanning the abandoned factory in front of him, and quickly organizing the next steps in his mind.
He didn't want to simply stalk him anymore. He had to lure him into revealing more flaws, not just wait and observe from behind. The forces behind Yang Cheng were too mysterious, and the intelligence at hand wasn't enough to shake this massive organization. He had to use bait, a trap that would lure him into even greater trouble.
The phone vibrated again, and the screen showed an incoming call from Han Jie.
"Su Ming, the raid is scheduled for tomorrow morning." There was a hint of oppression in Han Jie's voice, as if the tension on the other end was no less than Su Ming's.
"It's too early." Su Ming frowned. "Tomorrow morning won't work. They haven't revealed enough flaws yet. Taking action now will only make them aware of us."
"But we don't have many choices anymore." Han Jie lowered his voice a bit, with a hint of dissatisfaction. "The higher-ups are already pushing us. There are too many things involved behind Yang Cheng. We can't take any more risks."
"I understand." Su Ming paused, his voice calming. "But this time I have a better plan. We can let them expose themselves instead of passively waiting for the opportunity. I have a way to make Yang Cheng take the initiative."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and Han Jie finally compromised: "Okay, but you have to make sure this plan doesn't go wrong."
"I will." Su Ming hung up the phone and put it down. His thoughts gradually became clearer. He knew that he had to take the initiative to control the situation in order to truly tear apart this intricate network.
As the night deepened, the city lights flickered in the distance. Su Ming's car, parked in the shadows of the industrial zone, seemed unusually quiet. He sat in the car, staring at the factory ahead, his mind rapidly recalling the previous intelligence and various details.
He decided to adopt a more radical strategy—creating an accident to catch Yang Cheng off guard. This would reveal more of Yang Cheng's connections, allowing him to exploit them. However, for this operation to succeed, Su Ming had to ensure that no one would suspect him, and all operations had to be extremely secretive.
Su Ming began to plot. He would set a small trap, one that would attract Yang Cheng's attention, tricking him into thinking he had information that would benefit him and lead him to act. And Su Ming would observe all this from the shadows until Yang Cheng revealed his true weakness.
"Yang Cheng, you will walk into the net I set." He whispered to himself, as if he had already seen Yang Cheng struggling in the trap.
