Chapter 544: Chapter 532: No Such Person Exists
Brian and Paul had no choice but to join the tracking as well, because even if Yang Yi and Anton took turns at surveillance, there was a considerable risk of being detected.
Five people, four vehicles, and after two vehicle changes, they at last managed to tail Park Ji-yi to the exterior of an innocuous-looking house.
Park Ji-yi drove into the house, while Yang Yi and the others immediately spread out to commence the final stage.
Just tracking was meaningless, the crux was to know who Park Ji-yi was meeting and what was being said.
Yang Yi and Xiao Ran set up a microwave eavesdropping device, while Brian and Paul were operating a laser surveillance device.
Sound waves could create a faint resonance effect on glass or metal objects, which in turn could reflect microwaves. Yang Yi controlled a directional microwave emitter aimed at the windowpane; if there was speaking inside, the device could capture and reconstruct the content of the conversation.
The principle of the laser eavesdropping device was similar, only switching microwaves with laser. When the laser shone on the window, the sound waves from the conversation caused minuscule vibrations in the glass. Once the laser reflected back and was received and amplified, a clear conversation could be obtained.
"Thanks for your hard work."
"You’re too polite."
Yang Yi was the first to receive the audio signal, and immediately said into the walkie-talkie, "Target is in the house on the sunny side, second window to the left, engaged in conversation."
The two distant eavesdropping devices were to prevent equipment failure or poor eavesdropping performance, so as soon as Yang Yi located the target, he immediately informed Brian to eavesdrop together.
The conversation inside the room continued.
"Are you ready?"
"Ready. The captain and crew have all been replaced by our own people. We can proceed as long as the weather permits, and the weather forecast does indicate good weather. If nothing unexpected happens, we can act on schedule."
"He is also paying close attention to this matter. You must get it done perfectly."
"Yes, I’ll do my best."
"Not your best, you must do it well!"
"Yes, but Anderson seems to have noticed our plan. During our last meeting, he even mentioned cryptically that I shouldn’t do anything too excessive, and they asked to meet with me again today."
"Ignore them, CA Information Resources Company is reaching too far."
"CA?"
"Anderson is just a branch office set up by CA here. Do these people think they can control everything? Enough, you don’t need to know this. Just do your job."
"I understand."
"Go now, meet with the people from the Anderson Research Association. If they make any unreasonable demands, just ignore them. Our plans cannot be thwarted by anyone, be careful not to be seen, and we await your good news."
"Understood."
With the conversation between the two over, Yang Yi instantly said into the walkie-talkie, "Attention, they are coming out. Ghost, continue to follow Park Ji-yi, and we’ll stay to see who the other person is."
Anton said solemnly, "Understood."
Yang Yi took out his phone and made a call to Kate, then said in a grave tone, "Get Tang Guo to check on CA Information Resources Company immediately."
After waiting for Yang Yi to hang up the phone, Xiao Ran spoke softly, "We’ve certainly snagged a big fish. What do you think they’re up to?"
Yang Yi shook his head and said, "I don’t know, but I believe if we continue our investigation, we’ll get results. First, we need to figure out the identity of the other person who met with Park Ji-yi."
Meeting in person, and secretly at that, to discuss something indicates that the matter must be very important and confidential.
Yang Yi was very excited; he now knew that there was another company behind the Anderson Research Association, which was already a significant breakthrough.
A while later, Park Ji-yi left alone in his car, but Yang Yi and Brian did not. Compared to Park Ji-yi, the person whose identity was still unknown was clearly more important.
Yang Yi hoped to continue eavesdropping on something important after Park Ji-yi left, but for a long time after his departure, he heard nothing.
Yang Yi said into the walkie-talkie in a deep voice, "Owl, find an opportunity to take pictures of the people inside."
"Understood, I need to get to a higher position to take them."
Brian would take pictures of the people inside, while Yang Yi and Xiao Ran continued surveillance from afar. Half an hour later, Yang Yi saw a luxury sedan leaving the yard.
He noted the house number, making it easier to investigate who the property belonged to later, and then Yang Yi followed the luxury sedan from a distance in his car.
"Owl, did you get the shot?"
"I got a profile shot; my angle wasn’t very good."
After pondering for a moment, Yang Yi spoke softly, "That’s enough; I’ll keep following. Holy Water, report your position."
"I’m ahead of their car, over."
"Received, be ready to switch positions at any time, over."
The ultimate result of the surveillance was that the luxury sedan entered a villa with a large courtyard, and Yang Yi and his team were forced to give up the tail because they left the busy roads and couldn’t continue the follow-up on the villa’s dedicated access road.
Apart from the vehicle’s license plate number, and that the luxury sedan had arrived at a villa area, they also had a profile photo of a person.
The pursuit could not continue, and Yang Yi said over the walkie-talkie, "My car is stolen; I must park it somewhere far away now. I’m leaving."
Paul also spoke softly, "I have the same problem. If someone discovers the stolen car nearby, it might raise the suspicions of interested parties. I must also park further away; it looks like we need to buy some cars."
"Let’s temporarily give up surveillance, get ready, and come back, over."
Ending the call, Yang Yi turned to Xiao Ran and said, "I’ll find a place to ditch the car; you rush back and sort out the information we’ve obtained."
After letting Xiao Ran out of the car, Yang Yi drove a long distance away, eventually abandoning the car in a place without cameras. He then took a circuitous route on the subway, removed his disguise far from the hotel, and only then returned to the hotel.
As soon as he returned, Yang Yi couldn’t wait to ask, "How’s it going?"
With a serious face, Xiao Ran said, "CA Information Resources Company is a small company headquartered in London, United Kingdom, very small—no findings yet. Additionally, we’ve hooked a big fish, a super shark."
Excited, Yang Yi exclaimed, "Oh, let’s hear it."
Xiao Ran exhaled, handed Yang Yi a printout of a profile shot, and said gravely, "This person, after comparison, has been confirmed to be Bu Cunzai."
Yang Yi took the photo and said, "Oh, is this person significant? A public figure? An official?"
Xiao Ran shook her head and said, "He’s not an official, but he’s a good friend of the current president of Korea, Mei Zheren. So yes, he is a significant figure."
