Chapter 577: Chapter 481: Quick-frozen Dumplings

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ning didn’t just stay put, waiting for doom.

She quietly slipped down the hill to the back of the pig farm and moved along the wall.

Jiang Ning’s movements were light, but with a bit of attention, one could notice that her pace was not slow. Although it was her first time here, she moved as if she knew the place like the back of her hand.

It wasn’t until she reached a corner of the wall that Jiang Ning suddenly halted.

At this moment, it wasn’t just Jiang Ning who heard the noise from the room, Qi Xingzhou, who had been following her, also heard it.

Jiang Ning tugged at Qi Xingzhou’s sleeve and gestured for him to come closer.

Qi Xingzhou obeyed and bent forward slightly, bowing his head.

"Inside there, there are probably more than ten people gambling. You watch here; I’ll go check the abandoned factory in front," Jiang Ning whispered.

According to the System’s location information, besides the ten or so criminals here, there were another ten or so in the abandoned factory up ahead.

Jiang Ning wanted to handle both situations, by positioning herself and Qi Xingzhou at separate locations to guide Zhang Lang and his team.

In this way, it would be as if she and Qi Xingzhou personally led the criminals right to Zhang Lang and others.

Qi Xingzhou didn’t know what Jiang Ning was thinking; he only felt that facing so many enemies with just the two of them was somewhat dangerous.

Qi Xingzhou wasn’t willing to split up with Jiang Ning, "I’ll call Snake Snake to stand guard here."

That way, he could join Jiang Ning in heading to the front.

"No, Zhang Lang and the others will arrive soon; it’s not good to be seen by others," Jiang Ning reassured Qi Xingzhou for a few moments, "Don’t worry, it’ll be fine."

After thinking for a while, she couldn’t help but add a few words of caution, "If you are discovered before Zhang Lang and the others arrive, then you run immediately. Your safety is the most important thing, got it?"

Qi Xingzhou looked down and stared at Jiang Ning seriously for a few seconds. Just when Jiang Ning thought he would disagree, Qi Xingzhou nodded.

Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief, clenched her fist, and lightly bumped it against Qi Xingzhou’s, then with agile motions like a cat, she disappeared from view, using the cover provided by other obstacles nearby.

Qi Xingzhou stood in place, holding a smooth and shiny flat-bottomed pan, utterly incongruous with his overall demeanor, and watched as Jiang Ning left.

By the time Jiang Ning arrived at the abandoned factory ahead, she just managed to see several military police vehicles appearing on the concrete road not far away.

Jiang Ning was delighted and hurriedly waved to the vehicles.

The military police vehicle in front seemed to have noticed Jiang Ning and silently turned on the vehicle’s lights in response.

Seeing this, Jiang Ning hurriedly followed the System’s navigation towards the direction where the criminals were located.

After some thought, she intentionally circled to the rear.

This abandoned factory was, in earlier years, actually an abandoned brick factory.

The brick factory covered a large area and had been bustling for a few years before closing down due to poor management by the heir.

More than ten people gathered within two of the small rooms.

Inside the rooms, there was a haze of smoke and white fog, with the loud and rough voices of men.

"Big! Bet on big!"

"Big? It’s definitely going to be small!"

"Damn it! Wang Lao Er, how come it’s always you, the bastard, winning!"

"..."

The men fixed their gazes on the gambling table, eyes bloodshot.

Two skinny men were squinting their eyes, sitting in a passageway connecting the two rooms, puffing out smoke.

Suddenly, either they heard something or not, one of the men put down what he was holding, stood up with a wary look, and both glanced at each other before looking out the window.

Several police cars appeared in their line of sight!

The police car at the front even left the concrete road and was turning towards them!

At the sight of the police cars, Zhao An and Zhao Quan snapped out of their stupor.

"Fuck! Police cars!"

"The cops are here!"

The two men instinctively yelled out and started running towards the back door!

At this moment, they couldn’t even consider why the police had suddenly appeared, nor why Skinny Wang and Hei Mazi, who had been keeping watch on the hill, had not warned them.

The only thing on their minds was to run, and quickly!

Their shout startled everyone playing enthusiastically in the other two rooms.

Those with quick reactions threw whatever they held and immediately followed behind Zhao An and Zhao Quan to escape.

Some slower responders, noticing everyone fleeing, realized there was trouble while not knowing what it was, panicked and scrambled to run with the group.

And a few fixated on the scattered money on and under the table, gripped by greed, squatted down to pick up the cash before thinking of fleeing...

At the back door, Jiang Ning was hiding in the shadows, waiting for her prey.

When the first person burst out, Jiang Ning suddenly appeared, brandishing the flat-bottomed pan in her hands and fiercely banged on them!

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"..."

It was like dropping frozen dumplings into a pot.
