Chapter 208 The Night of the Decisive Battle
So that's what happened. Several people finally understood why Li Meng had disappeared in the past two days. It turned out that he had gone to carry out a mission in secret. Everyone else felt that there was nothing wrong with Gu Nankai's behavior at this moment, but Wu Qingluan felt it was a bit abrupt for no reason.
Just when she was becoming more confused, the phone in her hand vibrated, causing her body to tremble slightly. She opened the phone suspiciously, only to find a message from Gu Nankai.
Soon, she frowned slightly and looked at Gu Nankai quickly, but he just glanced at her indifferently, no different from usual.
After reading his message, Wu Qingluan's doubts were somewhat relieved. She quickly and naturally responded to Gu Nankai's arrangement: " In this case, let's get ready and go to our respective posts immediately."
Except for Gu Nankai, Cao Cang and the others nodded quickly, but Shang Lu raised another question at this time: "Boss, we are all leaving, what are you doing?"
Gu Nankai was stunned for a moment, then he quickly laughed: "Of course I'm going to support our comrade Li Meng. He's been through a lot these past two days."
Shang Lu finally realized it and laughed, "I almost forgot."
"Hey, Shang Lu, if our Li Meng knew that you had forgotten his existence, he would be so sad."
Gao Yuan patted Shang Lu on the head, smiled and said as he packed up and left with Cao Cang.
“Too much!”
Shang Lu had a slight anger on his face as he shouted at Gao Yuan's departing back, but there was no disgust in his eyes, only the kind of small emotion that one would find in a playful relationship between familiar friends.
But then, she was a little dazed and thought, Li Meng hasn't contacted her in the past two days. Thinking about it carefully, she felt a little lost. No wonder she was always absent-minded in the past two days. Could it be because of Li Meng?
The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became, so she simply shook her head and stopped thinking about it. She packed up and went to find Chen An Ning.
"Let your own people keep an eye on Li Tianbao, aren't you afraid of breaking the rules?"
As there was still some time, Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan were not in a hurry. After everyone had left, Wu Qingluan, who had been packing up slowly, said something to Gu Nankai.
Because the message on her phone just now was sent by Gu Nankai, which briefly told her that the people sent to keep an eye on Li Tianbao were the men she met at Mr. Huo Jiu's place, that is, Gu Nankai's good brothers. Gu Nankai told her in that way, obviously he didn't want this matter to be known by everyone, so he didn't make it public just now. Now that everyone has left, she finally had the mind to tease Gu Nankai.
"I can't help it. We only have so many people. If I withdraw more, I won't trust the others. Li Tianbao must be very alert now. If someone you don't trust goes there, it will only cause trouble. I can only trouble a few friends. When you go there later, at least you can take charge of the situation. Otherwise, they will have no reason to do anything to Li Tianbao."
Gu Nankai just smiled softly and said to Wu Qingluan.
Wu Qingluan shrugged to show that she didn't care. The two didn't say anything more. As time passed, everyone had arrived at their respective locations, and Gu Nankai also met with Li Meng quietly.
"How is it going?"
At this time, Gu Nankai was wearing a white coat and a mask on his face, looking like a doctor who had just finished an operation. He quietly appeared in the ward where Li Meng was, quickly took off the mask on his face and asked Li Meng.
At this time, Li Meng was lying on the bed in a patient gown, but his eyes were staring at the surveillance in front of him sharply. If you look closely, there are many surveillance directions in the surveillance video in front of Li Meng. One can imagine how detailed the surveillance was made by Gu Nankai and him, and the directions pointed by all the surveillance were exactly the ward and surroundings where Wu Songyuan and Zhang Haiyuan were.
They were waiting, waiting for someone to come to their door in person.
Seeing Gu Nankai coming, Li Meng, who had been holding back for two days, finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Boss, you're finally here. I was almost suffocating to death!"
Gu Nankai laughed and comforted him: "Don't worry, it will be over soon."
As he spoke, he moved closer and saw that Li Meng had not touched the food beside him. It should be something that Zhang Liang had secretly brought to him. Li Meng must have been too busy watching the surveillance camera to eat. For the foodie in the serious crime squad, this was simply torture for Li Meng. He did not even move his mouth, which showed that this guy was also stubborn when he was working.
"Okay, go eat something, I'll keep an eye on this. It's still early, we can relax a little." Gu Nankai said, replaced Li Meng, and sat down next to the computer to follow the developments in the surveillance.
After hearing what Gu Nankai said, Li Meng realized that he was on the verge of starvation. When it came time to eat, his stomach had already started to feel hungry. He smiled sheepishly, walked over and started to eat voraciously.
After filling his stomach for a few mouthfuls, he slowed down his movements and reported the details to Gu Nankai: "Boss, Wu Songyuan may wake up today. Zhang Liang has spread the news. I estimate that Li Tianbao's people will take action tonight, so we can't relax now."
Gu Nankai stared at the surveillance camera and replied to Li Meng: "Yes, tonight is their last hope. That mysterious man will definitely appear again. It's up to you to deal with him. Eat more and have a good rest to prepare for tonight's mission."
To be honest, Gu Nankai was not in the hospital these two days, and Li Meng was watching over him alone. Occasionally, Zhang Liang came to bring him food and keep an eye on him, but in order not to arouse other people's suspicion, Zhang Liang did not dare to stay long. Li Meng was exhausted from holding on until now. Others at least slept for a while, but he was different. Fortunately, he got used to it when he was a special forces soldier, otherwise others might not be able to hold on.
After Gu Nankai finished speaking, Li Meng did not refuse and fell asleep after a while. It seemed that he was really tired. Gu Nankai glanced at the person who was snoring softly, chuckled softly, and then kept his attention on the surveillance.
The time soon came to around ten o'clock in the evening, and Gu Nankai's spirits were obviously lifted at this time. Li Meng had also woken up at this time, and he was full of energy after waking up from a nap.
"Boss, success or failure depends on this one move!"
He seemed a little excited. This feeling of waiting for the enemy to take the bait seemed to be something he remembered from when he was a special forces soldier a long time ago. Since he was injured and transferred to the serious crime team, this seemed to be the first time he had carried out such a mission. This made Li Meng feel a little different from before.
"Are you ready?"
The atmosphere was a bit stuffy and tense. Gu Nankai asked Li Meng a question, and Li Meng grinned: "Of course, Boss, to be honest, I haven't felt this way for a long time. If I hadn't been injured and was no longer suitable to be a special forces soldier, I think I would still be carrying out the mission at this time. Although the current mission is not as difficult as before, I am a little nervous."
Gu Nankai could understand his feelings and patted him on the shoulder: "You can definitely do it, don't be nervous, it's just catching someone."
Li Meng chuckled twice, with a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face.
Time passed by minute by minute. Gu Nankai looked at the time in the upper right corner of the monitor. It was already 10:41, but there was still no movement in the monitor. Li Meng asked softly, "Boss, is he not going to come?"
Gu Nankai stared at the screen solemnly and shook his head gently: "Impossible, Wu Songyuan must be dead, otherwise there is no point in them doing so much."
