Chapter 692 - 0694: Action Plan
In a remote suburb of the Imperial Capital, the scenery was pleasant, with uniform villas dotting the hills, clearly the creations of the wealthy.
At this moment, a black sedan slowly made its way from the bottom of the hill to the top, and because of its geographical location, the higher up the villas were, the more expensive they were.
Someone living halfway up the hill looked out from their balcony and saw a plain sedan, whose market price was just over a hundred thousand. Yet now it was headed towards the top of the hill. The onlooker couldn’t help but curl their lip—could the driver have taken the wrong turn? After all, just on the mountaintop, the price of a toilet alone was enough to buy three of these cars.
Despite the doubts of others, the black car kept climbing higher. Anyway, the person sitting inside had no idea. A closer look would reveal that the driver was wearing a mask. If Chu Ge were here, he would have been astonished, because this was none other than the masked man who had been gathering information for Jian Chunqiu these past few days.
The masked man wore a mask, obscuring his expression, but those eyes still conveyed utter indifference, devoid of any emotion.
He parked the car in front of a villa at the top of the hill, opened the door, and walked straight towards the villa. There were no guards at the entrance, but there was a keypad. He extended a hand to swipe it, and the villa’s grand doors swung open.
Upon entering, the villa’s interior could be seen. The garden flowers and plants were freshly trimmed, the fountain water crystal clear, suggesting frequent occupancy. However, once inside, the vast villa was inhabited by just one person.
The villa’s interior was lavishly decorated, with living room ornaments worth a small fortune—any one of them could buy a luxury car. Yet the masked man seemed oblivious to this.
"What’s the hurry calling me over here?"
He pushed the door and entered without even lifting his eyes, as if talking to a ghost. But no sooner had he spoken than a voice came from behind the bar.
