168: Chapter 168: You fatso!

Courting death!

Scanning the surroundings.

In the airport’s waiting hall, people bustled to and fro.

On rows and rows of seats, there were groups of three or five chatting, entire families traveling, heads buried in their phones.

All kinds of people were present, but it was unknown who among them was the assassin.

Whether male or female, tall or short, fat or thin, how to find them?

Exiting the smoking area, Wu Jie focused on the fellow travelers.

Since they were to follow to Tianyuan, they must be aboard the same flight.

To start with, the elderly and children were ruled out, followed by laughing and joking groups of ladies.

Finally, there were those on group tours.

After all, an assassin organization wouldn’t send too many people to follow someone; the costs would be prohibitive.

“The assassin definitely must be young, a very high chance it’s someone alone!”

“The more harmless they look, the more threatening they are!”

Wu Jie looked around and spotted six people who seemed suspicious.

One of them dressed like a college student, with a backpack on, constantly chatting and laughing with earphones on.

Seemingly on a call, his eyes wandering in all directions, glancing over Wu Jie several times.

Was it him?

The next second, he stood up, first took out near-sighted glasses from his pocket, put them on, and then walked to the restroom carrying a handful of local specialties.

Damn it!

Could it be that the assassin wasn’t waiting here at all?

Hiding elsewhere?

“What are you looking for?”

Tang Xiao, after returning from the restroom, walked by Wu Jie and asked.

“The one before pissed me off and left; I reckon there’s one or two more, but who could they be?”

Wu Jie frowned deeply in thought, his gaze constantly scanning the surroundings.

“They’re professionally trained.

If you could tell, wouldn’t that be something?”

Tang Xiao scoffed lightly and went back to her seat to chat with Zhu Cui.

Wu Jie grew weary of looking; the other party surely wouldn’t expose themselves easily.

As soon as he sat back down, Tang Xiao asked with a smirk, “Why did you stop looking?”

“Sigh!

After all that searching, none were as pretty as you!” Wu Jie replied offhand.

Tang Xiao gave Wu Jie a disdainful glance and snorted coldly, “Can you stop joking around when I’m talking about something serious?”

“We’ve got to live this nonsensical life with a freestyle spirit!”

Raising his hand towards the surroundings, Wu Jie asked with a smirk, “Didn’t you receive all kinds of training?

Help me look, who seems most like an assassin?”

“It doesn’t matter who resembles one.

The key is for you not to be so childish, all right?”

“Am I that childish?”

“Who says you’re not?

Where else would you find someone who goes looking for an assassin like you do, even asking ‘Wanna meet up?’ Are you crazy?”

Tang Xiao hummed disdainfully, “And your standard of beauty is just too low, don’t you think?

With her looks, could you even?”

“Err…”

Wu Jie broke into a sweat, then replied with an awkward laugh:

“I’m just bored out of my mind, teasing her, that’s all.

You think I’d eat anything?”

Tang Xiao snorted derisively, “Isn’t there a saying, ‘bachelors for three and a half years find even sows as beautiful as Diaochan?'”

“Ha-ha!

Do you think our men’s hands are just for show?” Wu Jie said with a lecherous gaze, chuckling, “And if we don’t like using our hands, can’t we just eat chicken?”

“Sleazeball!”

Tang Xiao turned her head away, preferring to listen to Zhu Cui’s awkward chatter.

Time slowly ticked by.

His father called, announcing they had landed safely, and after a long wait, they finally began boarding.

Tang Xiao was right; the assassin surely wouldn’t make a move at the airport or on the plane.

Their journey was smooth, landing safely at Tianyuan Airport.

As the plane was about to connect with the jet bridge, Tang Xiao whispered a reminder:

“From now on, you can pay attention to who stays close and follows quickly, they’re most likely to be the assassin!”

“Of course!

If I don’t keep a close eye, it’d be easy to lose them!”

Wu Jie smiled knowingly.

As soon as the airplane came to a stop, he stood up, grabbed his bag, and smoothly checked the darts hidden in his sleeves.

The more expensive business class not only offered better service from flight attendants but also gave priority in boarding and disembarking.

By the time Wu Jie and his two companions were almost out of the jet bridge, passengers from economy class were just starting to leave the plane.

The thing most to be avoided in surveillance is losing visual contact.

Therefore, Wu Jie believed that at this moment the assassin must be in a state of panic, definitely rushing to catch up.

Tang Xiao and Zhu Cui walked leisurely ahead, while Wu Jie deliberately slowed his pace to watch who would come chasing after them first.

A bratty kid holding a model airplane?

Unlikely.

A couple dragging luggage and rushing behind?

Impossible.

Three young men and women walking together, laughing and taking photos for their social circles?

Even less likely.

…

Suddenly.

A bulky fat man came into Wu Jie’s line of sight.

This guy, carrying a laptop bag, looked like a programmer, but his thick legs moved surprisingly fast.

And as he walked, he was on the phone; the moment his eyes met Wu Jie’s, he subconsciously paused.

Wasn’t this the classic sign of a guilty conscience?

Wu Jie smiled faintly, turned his head back, and quickly caught up with Tang Xiao and the other.

“I’ll get off the car halfway, you take Cui to Grandpa’s house first!” he said.

Tang Xiao glanced sideways, “Found out who it is?”

“Pretty much!” Wu Jie replied with a devilish smile.

They took a cab from the airport to the city.

On the way, Wu Jie kept an eye on the rear.

The fat man’s taxi was surprisingly following them at a steady pace.

“What does that person look like exactly?” Tang Xiao asked curiously.

“A dead fatty, looks like a programmer!” Wu Jie replied casually: “I’m convinced it’s him!”

Tang Xiao nodded with a half-smile, saying nothing more.

Both cars left the airport expressway, and after several intersections, the pursuit continued.

Wu Jie felt even more certain.

“Driver, please pull over up ahead.

Cui, you go on with my sister-in-law.

I’ll come by car later!”

Getting out of the car, Wu Jie immediately noticed that the dead fatty’s taxi had stopped not far behind.

“Damn!

So bold?

Watch me end you with one dart!”

Wu Jie reached his right hand into the left sleeve, took out a dart, and hid it in his palm, walking up without haste.

However…

As the fat man got out and closed the door, he saw Wu Jie approaching and immediately started wailing, “Director Wu, I was wrong!”

Saying that, the fat man pulled out the work pass from his pocket.

“I’m Yu Lianping, the deputy manager of the South American Kent project.

I came back specifically to confess.

I’ve committed embezzlement and bribery.

I am guilty, but I don’t want to be sent to jail.

Please, spare me!”

His speech was extremely fast and his demeanor was frantic.

Yu Lianping seemed almost on the verge of crying.

Wu Jie, however, became instantly furious.

Fuck!

Are you playing with me?

“Fucker!

Since you recognized me early on, why didn’t you come to me on the plane to confess?”

“I…

I’m afraid of President Tang!

If her temper flares up, I would be sent straight to prison!”

Yu Lianping pleaded with a mournful face, “Yu Hui said you were more reasonable than President Tang; maybe you would let me off the hook.

So I tried to follow you, hoping for a chance to talk to you alone!

I didn’t expect you to get off midway, so I just…”

Wu Jie massaged his forehead and shook his head, grinding his teeth:

“Fuck, I thought you were…”

He didn’t finish his sentence.

Suddenly!

There was a sharp screech of brakes.

A black sedan raced over and came to a sudden stop.

On the passenger side, a pretty woman actually raised her hand, preparing to shoot.

In that moment of danger!

Wu Jie abruptly dove forward, tackling Yu Lianping to the ground.

Simultaneously, he flung the dart…
