Chapter 662 - 0664: Dragon Head Boss
The surroundings were pitch black and silent. Even the bodyguards patrolling the hallway moved lightly, not making a sound.
Shao Gang’s room was also dark. From the window, it looked like he was already asleep. Inside, the thick blackout curtains had been pulled shut by Shao Gang, who was crouching under the desk with a small candle lit. The candle did not illuminate much, but it was enough for Shao Gang.
Beneath the candle, there was a white cloth spread out, not very big, just about the size of a hand. On the cloth, there were several dried herbs, which Shao Gang was crushing into a powder.
Soon, he finished preparing the powder. It was his unique secret formula. Previously, to help Mr. Nangong relax, he had burned incense in Mr. Nangong’s room. His plan now was to sneak into Mr. Nangong’s room and mix this powder into the incense so that Mr. Nangong would keep sleeping, regardless of the noise Shao Gang might make, unless the effects of the medicine wore off.
Shao Gang carefully wrapped the powder in paper, patiently waiting by his door.
He wore a watch on his wrist, the hands ticking away. Suddenly, it was midnight, the time when the bodyguards outside change shifts.
Carefully, he opened the door without making a sound in the quiet night. He looked around and saw no sign of the bodyguards.
Feeling his way along the wall, Shao Gang quickly slipped toward Old Master Nangong’s room. Fortunately, his room was close to Old Master Nangong’s, and he soon arrived.
Gently turning the doorknob, Shao Gang slid in quickly like an eel, closed the door, and then patted his chest. Being a thief really made one feel guilty.
Standing just inside the door, Shao Gang could hear Old Master Nangong snoring. Old Master Nangong had some breathing issues, which always caused him to snore. This also meant that his sleep was particularly unstable, often suffering from insomnia. That was why Shao Gang had previously burned incense for him, which was meant to be calming.
