Ye Jian’s searching speed was neither slow nor hurried. She walked along the long corridor covered with thick carpet as if she was taking a stroll in a park. Step by step, she walked until she saw a small crack open in the room about five steps away from her.

The other party was a little cautious too. Although there was a small crack on the door, the safety chain inside was fastened to allow him to close the door immediately if anything happened.

Smiling slightly, Ye Jian continued using the square-faced man’s accent to contact the other side of the phone. She instructed the other party to take down the safety chain.

Although the man on the other side of the phone didn’t see his friend, he didn’t suspect anything when he heard the familiar voice. He even said, “You’re finally here. I’m sweating.”

The sound of someone approaching the door came from the room. Then, there was the sound of the safety chain being taken off. Ye Jian, who had been waiting for this moment, appeared from the side and closed the door. The entire process took around 30 seconds.

In the room, a small and skinny man who was around 1.65 meters tall and around 25 or 26 years old widened his eyes and stared at the uninvited guest. “You! Who are you? What are you doing?”

He was knocked down by Ye Jian. Fortunately, the hotel room was covered with carpet. The man who didn’t hurt much got up as he spoke. “What are you doing? You came to the wrong room.”

Ye Jian was a young lady who had exquisite and beautiful features. She was dressed in a professional suit. No matter how you looked at her, the young man felt that she was harmless. He didn’t feel any danger.

“Contact Mr. Charlie and tell him about the plan.” Ye Jian rushed in and held the silver wire that hadn’t been wrapped around her wrist for a long time. She turned on the heater in the room and walked past the young man who was only wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt. “Ask how to set the fire at 1:00 AM.”

At this moment, the young man realized that something was amiss. When he saw the girl’s expression, he felt even more puzzled.

Ye Jian was too calm. It was as if she was chatting with someone she knew. Besides using some strength when she knocked on the door and entered the room, she spoke calmly after entering the room. For a moment, the young man was confused.

When he heard her mention “Mr. Charlie” and setting the fire at one o’clock in the morning, the young man’s expression changed. He blurted out, “How did you know?”

“I know a lot. We still need to keep an eye on the director-general.” Ye Jian looked around and confirmed that he was the only one in the room. She didn’t carry any dangerous weapons, so she sat on the lounge chair leaning against the hotel’s window. Her gaze was cold as she looked at the young man with a stern look in her eyes. “If the director-general comes on time, you can set the hotel on fire. If he doesn’t come, you should ask Mr. Charlie what to do.”

The young man didn’t seem like a habitual offender. Ye Jian’s words were filled with truth and lies. Coupled with the aura of a strategist, the young man, who felt that it was strange, seemed to have found his backbone. He quickly sat on another round chair and sized up Ye Jian. After a while, he said, “Who are you? Why haven’t I seen you before?”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but straighten his body. With vigilance in his eyes, he questioned without much confidence, “Tell me who you are first!”

“The Grand Commissioner has arranged for someone else to help your people at any time. If not, how would I know your plan? The car accident plan during the day has failed. Hence, this time, as long as the target appears, we must succeed! We must not fail!”
