Chapter 848: Chapter 371: Thievery_3

"Hmm?"

The man said, "I’m Snake Skin, mengmeng’s informant. She contacted me to have me drive the car away. She said you, this idiot, definitely didn’t think it through. The keys."

Lin Wu hurriedly pulled out the keys and handed them to the man with the name ’Snake Skin’ above his head, who then left. Lin Wu closed the door, turned to the bedroom window, and looked outside. He saw Snake Skin get into the car parked downstairs and quickly drive away.

How could Blood Meng contact her own informant? And how could she trust her own informant? The answer was the envelope, which outlined her information and network connections. This thing is extremely important; it could maximize her resources within a 24-hour period. But it’s also unimportant because, by tomorrow, it would be worthless.

Lost in his wild thoughts, Lin Wu dozed off for a while. He was awakened from his sleep by a knock on the door. Blood Meng’s voice came through, "Open up."

Lin Wu hurriedly opened the door and let Blood Meng in. As soon as she entered, she checked the weapons but was not very satisfied, "Too few."

"It’s good enough as it is."

"I guess I imagined the plan to be too perfect," Blood Meng said. "Come with me."

"Where to?"

"Across the hall."

Blood Meng walked to the door of the residence opposite in the two-apartment building and rang the doorbell, maintaining a smile on her face so that the owner could read her goodwill through the peephole.

The door quickly opened, and a woman said, "Officer Blood Meng, hello, aren’t you working today?"

"No." Blood Meng swiftly chopped the woman’s neck with the side of her hand. The woman stepped back, hands to her throat, unable to make any sound. Blood Meng stepped forward, turned behind the woman, one hand covering her mouth, the other pressing on the back of her head, and with both hands, twisted the woman’s neck, breaking it.

Blood Meng held the woman’s body and dragged it inside, seeing Lin Wu standing dumbfounded at the door, she said, "Come in and close the door."

Lin Wu closed the door, and mumbled, "Sister, you really killed someone. I mean, your moves are real killing techniques. You get what I mean."

"I get it," Blood Meng glanced at Lin Wu. "Don’t forget, I’m a legitimate Fortress Agent."

"Killing is not right." But what can you say, huh... Forget it. Lin Wu asked, "Why not stay in your own apartment?"

Blood Meng asked, "Do you know who Bodde is?"

"A little bit," Lin Wu replied.

Blood Meng said, "I received a message at the hospital that Bodde has put a bounty on you, one million alive, five hundred thousand dead. Let me explain Day After Tomorrow City to you first—it’s a developed city but also a metropolis filled with criminal interests."

Lin Wu said, "Why not just give me the envelope directly? I can read it myself."

"No rush," Blood Meng said. "The police aren’t too keen on you because Bodde has put pressure on the police department through the mayor, telling them to stay out of this. But the whole city, from the criminals to the underworld, is looking for you."

Lin Wu asked, "What exactly did I do?"

"I don’t have a lot of information," Blood Meng said. "But I guess you stole a box of Gold. This box was originally for the mayor to smooth over a scandal for Bodde. I was puzzled because a box of gold isn’t worth a million dollars until I found out after investigating that Bodde had manipulated the gold to control the mayor, recording conversations between the mayor and the scandal’s key figure."

"The police upper echelon is thrilled to learn of the situation, hoping to take out Bodde and the mayor through you. Although they’ve arrested you first, you genuinely don’t know anything. Hence, Bodde has put out the bounty to avoid the gold and evidence falling into police hands."

"I didn’t realize this was such a thorny issue. I got greedy and got involved; I really should have shot you dead." Regret was written all over Blood Meng’s face. "At nine this morning, I’ve arranged a helicopter through my connections, and I’ve had supplies added to it. In the end, I shouldn’t have gotten to know you."

Lin Wu forced a laugh, "I’m innocent too."

"Now there’s no other way; I have to be your accomplice. Otherwise, when we get back to Earth, how can I face you, my little ’brother’?" Blood Meng said. "My plan is to blend in here until seven tomorrow morning. After I check into my house, I’ll take you to a hotel, and then we’re both on our own."
