Chapter 197 - 196: Please Enter the Car
Why did Yang Yi leave the mall only to return to the parking lot? Because ultimately he wasn’t satisfied just with his own escape. Since he intended to act as a safety valve, and now that he had a car, of course he had to go back to the parking lot and drive it. That way, he might be able to save Brian and the others at a critical moment.
Of course, the likelihood that he could get in the car and then pick up Brian and the others was very slim, but as long as there was a possibility, Yang Yi was determined to be prepared.
Yang Yi took the elevator to the second floor. He exited the elevator and began walking towards the parking spot of the middle-aged man.
Yang Yi had only walked a few steps when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from the emergency stairwell; someone was running up to the second floor.
Putting the car keys back into his pocket, Yang Yi crouched down next to the car. He worried that the person running towards him was either the man he had stolen the car keys from or possibly the police. If it were the police, it would be easier to handle, but if it was the person who had lost their keys, then he wouldn’t be able to drive the car.
Soon, Yang Yi realized that the approaching person was neither a police officer nor the key loser, but a man with a vigilant face and a gun in his hand. Although the gun was hidden under his coat, his expression clearly showed he was looking for someone.
"I’ve arrived, but the target has disappeared in the parking lot. They shouldn’t have gone far, but the operation is a complete failure. Yes, sir, yes, I understand."
The man who had come up was also making a call. Although he kept his voice very low, Yang Yi could still vaguely hear him.
Sir could mean mister, teacher, or perhaps a superior officer, or it could have other meanings, like boss.
