Chapter 837: Chapter 0837: The True Purpose
Did the security guard here actually die?
And Zhao Ruxue didn’t even know yet. When she took out her phone to call the City Police Bureau to inquire, it was indeed like that; the body had already been sent to the morgue of a nearby hospital, ready for an autopsy.
After Zhao Ruxue got the details, she was prepared to go and check on the security guard’s situation.
After she asked a few more questions and then left with Ye Qiu, once they got into the car, Zhao Ruxue said, "Let’s go to the hospital first and check on that security guard."
Ye Qiu thought the guard was only injured.
Unexpectedly, when he drove to the nearby hospital and got out of the car with Zhao Ruxue, and Zhao Ruxue went to find the person in charge, Ye Qiu found out that the security guard had already died. The body was now being kept frozen in the morgue, awaiting an autopsy.
Ye Qiu followed along, and now it was already night. Just as they got outside the morgue, a chill swept over Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue.
The temperature in the morgue is maintained at minus eight degrees Celsius all year round, and because of the difference with the outside temperature, stepping inside made the chill feel even more biting, along with a sinister atmosphere.
Ye Qiu accompanied Zhao Ruxue inside, and the staff in the morgue brought out the guard’s body. When Zhao Ruxue went over to look, the guard appeared to be in his forties, with obvious head trauma. It was clear that the guard was first severely ambushed on the head and then had his neck broken.
...
When they left the hospital’s morgue, it was already past nine at night.
The investigation this time didn’t yield much for Zhao Ruxue.
"Did you discover anything?"
Zhao Ruxue asked.
"No,"
Ye Qiu replied.
Zhao Ruxue felt it was a pity, but Ye Qiu noticed that her face looked even more ominous, indicating she might indeed be in some kind of trouble.
Recalling the last time Zhao Rubing was attacked by that living corpse at the Norwegian Forest Bar and almost lost her life, Ye Qiu felt even more that he needed to stay with her these days.
"Let’s go eat first!"
Ye Qiu said.
Seeing that Ye Qiu had been accompanying her for several hours without even having eaten, Zhao Ruxue knew they should eat first.
Working during work hours and eating during meal times was something Ye Qiu always advocated for, otherwise, what’s the point of working oneself to death?
"Drop me at the Zhao Family Courtyard, or we can have dinner there."
Ye Qiu had visited the Zhao Family Courtyard with Zhao Ruxue once before, but he always felt that the people there were somewhat odd.
"Then I will drop you off."
Ye Qiu drove to the gate of the Zhao Family Courtyard, and when he stopped the car, he said, "I won’t go in, you go ahead."
Ye Qiu didn’t want to enter the Zhao Family Courtyard, which covers over ten thousand square meters and is actually similar to a medium-sized community.
"Then I’ll go in first."
Zhao Ruxue went inside alone, while Ye Qiu waited in the car.
About twenty minutes later, Zhao Ruxue came out having changed out of her police uniform into her regular clothes, then got back into Ye Qiu’s car.
"My mom wanted me to have dinner at home just now. Since you don’t want to eat there, we’ll eat out."
Ye Qiu drove away from the Zhao Family Courtyard toward a Jiangnan cuisine restaurant.
Arriving at the Jiangnan cuisine restaurant, Ye Qiu parked the car and went inside with Zhao Ruxue. After finding a seat and sitting down, Ye Qiu said, "I’ll stay with you these days!"
"Why? Don’t you have any military training?"
"I’ll be your temporary bodyguard!"
Ye Qiu said.
Zhao Ruxue might have guessed it was because her face looked ominous, and Ye Qiu was worried something might happen to her.
However, there had been a few dangerous incidents before, like that time she got shot, and it was Ye Qiu who healed her in the end.
Of course, she was very grateful to Ye Qiu, and having him by her side also made her feel safer.
...
In a standalone house in the suburbs of Jiangnan, there were eight people inside, with two guarding the front and back doors.
Originally, this house was home to two local elderly people, who were now dead and stuffed under the bed in one of the rooms by this group.
"Boss, what exactly is our purpose for coming here this time?"
A man with dark skin, triangular eyes, yet very strong limbs, asked in English.
"It’s to rescue old number nine and the others!"
The man who spoke did not appear strong or tall, but he was very imposing.
"Then why did we rob jewelry stores these past two nights?"
The dark-skinned man continued to ask.
Clearly, their purpose for coming from Southeast Asia was to rescue the nine brothers who had previously robbed a bank, got caught by the police and were awaiting trial and imprisonment.
Their goal was clear, to rescue the nine brothers before they were sent to prison after their trial.
And now there were only two ways to rescue these nine brothers.
One was to exchange hostages to get the nine brothers back, and the other was to ambush the transport vehicle when the nine brothers were being taken to court, thus rescuing them.
However, what others hadn’t expected was that the boss had been in Jinling for quite a while, and these past two nights they had been robbing jewelry stores.
They felt it made things more complicated, and might even make rescuing the nine brothers more difficult.
"Those jewels were so easy to grab, don’t you want them?"
The man called Boss said.
"But Boss, our real purpose here is to rescue old number nine and the others!"
The man continued to argue.
"Of course, we will rescue them, but we want the money too. After all, such money would be difficult to make even if we went back to Southeast Asia."
"With so much jewelry, how do we take it back?"
Now they had robbed about ten jewelry stores over the past two nights, and combined, the jewels filled a whole sack.
It was all stored in a room, and most of it was pure gold jewelry.
Now they were worried because there was so much.
If it were just one bag, they could easily divide it.
"We’ll bury these jewels somewhere no one knows, then rescue the brothers. After we rescue old number nine and the others, and safely return to Southeast Asia, we’ll have someone come to retrieve the jewels later."
"Boss, but we’ve been hitting stores for two nights in a row, the police are already onto us!"
The dark-skinned man asked worriedly.
"That’s intentional. Only by diverting the police’s attention to the jewel cases can we have a chance to successfully rescue old number nine and the others."
The other members suddenly felt their boss had thought of something indeed different and such a clever plan.
Moreover, since the jewels were so easily acquired, how could they not take advantage? Even if they couldn’t rescue the brothers this time, it wouldn’t be a wasted trip!
