Chapter 938: The Cunning Rabbit's Temporary Plan
Cunning Rabbit stood on the edge of the high-rise rooftop, his clothes lifted by the evening breeze, his binoculars fixed firmly on the car moving at a steady pace in the distance. Gu Nan's profile was faintly visible through the lens, and a smug smile played at the corner of his mouth. He turned to Zhang Du beside him and said, "Look, it's so simple. Can't we just take care of Gu Nan? Why bother looking for Ran Qiuye? It's just a waste of time."
Zhang Du's brows furrowed, his fingertips unconsciously scratching the concrete edge of the rooftop. Hesitantly, he asked, "Are we being too reckless? After all, this is completely different from the plan I made with Xiao Bao. If we change the steps without authorization and something goes wrong... I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to Xiao Bao."
Cunning Rabbit sneered and put the telescope into his arms, his tone full of disapproval: "What do you know? This is Dragon Country, and the control of weapons is stricter than anyone else. The longer we delay, the easier it is to be exposed. If we don't resolve this quickly, by the time they react and set up a tight net, it will be difficult for us to leave. Anyway, after we're done, you can stay here and continue to live your life, but I don't have the time to waste - I've had enough of living in this place for one day. The food and accommodation all smell of earth and it's miserable." As he spoke, a hint of eagerness flashed in his eyes, and his fingers touched the fake ID card that he had prepared long ago in his trouser pocket, as if he had already planned more than three escape routes.
Zhang Du was tempted to refuse, but when she thought about how, after this matter was over, she might finally be able to live a peaceful life with Xiao Bao, no longer risking her life in such a life-or-death situation, her hesitation faded like smoke on the wind. She gritted her teeth and didn't argue, tacitly agreeing with Cunning Rabbit's idea.
In the car, Gu Nan leaned back, eyes closed, resting, his fingertips tapping lightly on his knees. He had sensed something was amiss since the driver's sudden change of direction. The car finally stopped at the door of an abandoned warehouse. Just as the driver was about to push open the door and "invite" Gu Nan inside, Gu Nan suddenly opened his eyes and, with lightning-fast elbow, struck the driver in the back of the neck. The driver collapsed without a single grunt.
Gu Nan opened the car door, glanced at the pale-faced employee in the passenger seat, and said coldly, "Tell me, what's going on? Don't wait for me to do anything."
The employee burst into tears, his whole body shaking like a sieve. "Deputy Director Gu, I really don't want to do this! But...but they've taken my wife and children away. They said if I don't do what they say, then...I won't be able to see my family again! I really don't know this driver. They just sent me here at short notice!"
Gu Nan wanted to ask more, but the employee seemed to be frightened. His eyes went dark and he fainted.
Gu Nan paid him no mind. His gaze swept across the rusted warehouse door, and he knew in his heart—those people were definitely waiting inside. He bent down and dragged the unconscious driver out, dragging him like a sack, step by step towards the depths of the warehouse. He couldn't guess their intentions for the time being, but he was certain that there must be many people hiding inside. This drama had just begun.
Gu Nan was quite confident in his abilities—after all, he had undergone a comprehensive system transformation, and his reaction speed and judgment were far superior to those of ordinary people. He stood outside the abandoned warehouse, squinting at the rusty iron door, his fingertips tapping lightly in his pocket, and he had already formed a preliminary plan in his mind.
Inside the warehouse, Cunning Rabbit was staring outside through a hidden observation hole. Seeing Gu Nan lingering at the door but not rushing in, a sneer appeared on his lips. "Alright, I didn't expect this Gu Nan to be quite capable. He actually noticed something was amiss. Humph, if he dares to come in, there's no need to leave him alive. Just finish him off."
Upon hearing this, the men immediately took their positions. Some tightly grasped the guns hidden behind their backs, while others crouched and hid behind wooden boxes, waiting for Gu Nan to step into the trap.
Gu Nan, however, had no intention of going in first. He glanced at the trembling driver beside him—the man they had sent to "pick him up" earlier, and now he was in great need. He suddenly raised his foot and pushed the driver towards the warehouse door.
"Bang!" The moment the iron door was knocked open, several gunshots rang out in the warehouse, bullets whizzing through the air. The driver didn't even realize what was happening. His body swayed, and then he fell straight down, blood quickly soaking his clothes.
Gu Nan's pupils shrank. He hadn't expected these people to actually carry guns, and to be so ruthless. It seemed he couldn't just fight head-on. He had to think of a countermeasure.
Seeing that there was no movement at the door, the cunning rabbit in the warehouse signaled one of his men to go over and check: "Go and see if it's Gu Nan? Don't hit the wrong person." He was far away just now and didn't see clearly who was pushed in.
The man stepped forward and just as he reached the body, he was hit on the back of the head by a rock thrown from the side by Gu Nan, causing him to fall to the ground with a muffled groan. Gu Nan had already circled to the side of the warehouse by then, but he didn't leave. After all, these men were armed with guns. If they were allowed to escape, there was no guarantee they wouldn't attack his family. He had to deal with this hidden danger here.
Another blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner came over and saw that the dead person on the ground was one of his own. His face darkened and he immediately looked up at the second floor of the warehouse and made a gesture that said "the target is not here".
Cunning Rabbit could see clearly from upstairs, frowned, and turned to Zhang Du beside him and said, "I didn't expect this guy to be so cunning, actually using a substitute to test us. Tell the brothers to go down and search, floor by floor, and dig three feet deep to find him!"
Zhang Du hesitated, a look of reluctance on his face. "Isn't this too rash? Gu Nan can remain calm in this situation. He's obviously not easy to deal with. If we disperse our forces like this, if he defeats us one by one, we'll be in a passive position."
Cunning Rabbit, however, didn't take it seriously and waved his hand: "What are you afraid of? My men are all professionally trained and are more than capable of dealing with Gu Nan. Even if there are casualties, it's their own fault. No one else can be blamed."
Seeing his firm attitude, Zhang Du didn't say anything more, but a hint of worry flashed across his eyes.
Gu Nan took the opportunity to sneak into the warehouse. It was indeed a mess—old wooden boxes were piled everywhere, rust and broken glass were scattered on the ground, and the dim light gave him a chance to hide. This chaotic environment actually became his cover.
After all, this place is very big. Gu Nan believes that even if he hides here, they won’t be able to find him. Let’s talk about it later.
Gu Nan stuck to a pillar and called out in his mind, "System, can you give me a topographical map of this warehouse? Including all the passages and hiding spots?"
