William said, "This house belonged to an old friend of mine. After they moved away, this house was left empty. Coincidentally, you said that you needed a basement, so I bought this place."
I'll take care of the basement renovation.
Looking around, Shi Yu nodded. The basement was about the same size as the current one, but there were some old furniture and children's toys. Shi Yu touched an old chair and blew at the dust on his fingers.
"William, if there's anything useful in here, leave it. If it isn't, we'll deal with it again."
Hearing Shi Yu's words, William was a little stunned. Wouldn't it be better to throw all these away and replace them with new ones?
But as the boss's arrangement, William could only nod and agree.
After looking at the house, William also returned to the company to deal with the documents. His notes had been on edge for the past few days. He had just taken over the company and did not manage it much. Now that he was free, he naturally had to put in more effort.
Meanwhile, Shi Yu was also happy to be free when he did not receive any missions.
When he returned home, he looked at a clean and tidy letter on the table, and his face slowly became severe.
There were only a few words on the letter. Henry, a British food merchant from city Y, a retired Marine officer, had paid five million in advance to get five million.
The photo was of a tall and muscular man with tied-up long hair.
Shi Yu began to throw everything into the furnace to burn, along with a photo of William.
Looking at the gradually burning letter, Shi Yu's heart seemed to return to the calm, ruthless killer.
After calling William and telling him that he had to go out, Shi Yu asked him to arrange for some bodyguard protection, and he began to prepare for the mission.
He got a fake ID and booked a plane ticket to Y city.
After bringing a few clothes, Shi Yu carried his bag and boarded the plane. The journey was only two to three hours.
On the plane, Shi Yu was bored to death as he played with the cards in his hand. At this time, a black man came to his side. The black man greeted him politely. Shi Yu nodded and looked at the window.
He watched as the sun went down bit by bit, a sight that seemed to be particularly charming.
Time crept by slowly.
He knew that the flight attendant's voice came from the cabin, indicating that the plane had already landed in City Y.
Shi Yu carried his bag and left the airport. The first thing he had to do now was to find a place to stay and then investigate the news of Henry. Since he was a businessman, then Henry would definitely appear on television.
So now, Shi Yu was not in a hurry. After he found a random hotel to stay in, his stomach started to growl.
He picked up the poker card and went out.
Strolling leisurely on the street, the poker card that Shi Yu was pointing at attracted the attention of passersby.
In order to not attract attention, Shi Yu put away the poker card and walked into a shop. After ordering some food, he asked the waiter if he knew the food merchant, Henry.
The waiter was shocked. Apparently, there were still people who did not know Henry. Thus, he explained to Shi Yu. Henry was a very conscientious businessman. Every year, he would donate a large amount of money to the poor, and his own food company would also send large amounts of food overseas every year for the poor.
Listening to the waiter's explanation, Shi Yu nodded. It seemed that Henry had a good reputation here.
But there was nothing he could do. The person he wanted to kill was him. After eating and returning to the hotel, Shi Yu searched for information about Henry on the internet. It was precisely as the waiter said. Henry was indeed a good person.
Then, he found the address of Henry's company. That night, Shi Yu disguised himself as a repairman and came to Henry's company.
Just as he was about to enter the company, he was stopped by the front desk.
"Why are you, a repairman, so late?"
Listening to the words of the front desk, Shi Yu could only make up a lie. "Ah, it's like this. There's a problem with the air conditioner, and the weather is quite cold now. I was supposed to come back tomorrow, but in this weather, the earlier you fix it, the less cold you'll feel."
At the words of Shi Yu, the repairman, the front desk seemed to have a reason to let him in.
When he walked to the elevator, Shi Yu noticed cameras in the corner and inside the elevator. While waiting for the elevator, he consciously avoided the cameras. When he reached the 20th floor, he walked out of the elevator. If he went further up, he would need an employee card to swipe it.
Shi Yu wanted to find someone to ask about the situation. He walked into the bathroom and waited for the employee to come over. Not long after, an employee walked in. Shi Yu quietly walked behind him. He pressed his hand against his waist and shouted, "Don't move. Tell me which floor Henry's office is on, and I'll let you go."
The employee had never experienced this before, so he blurted it all out. Then, Shi Yu hit him with a hand knife and knocked him unconscious. He dragged him onto the toilet and went out.
Hearing the employee say that Henry's office was on the top floor of the 30th floor, Shi Yu headed there.
Ding!
He walked out of the elevator. Seeing that the floor was lit and empty, he frowned. Was there no one in the upper management of a large company at the office at night?
Shi Yu walked to the room with the CEO's office hanging on the sign with questions in his mind. It was exactly the same inside, empty!
He looked at the desk opposite the room in front of him. On the desk was a computer and some folders. On the side were some couch and tea sets, and on the right were some books that were a little dusty.
Then, Shi Yu started to look through the folders on the desk, but they were all documents about the company.
He opened the drawer, and there were only some documents.
He looked through them when suddenly, he found a photo in the bottom drawer. It was a photo of Henry and a man. The background was still on the cliff, and they were wearing climbing equipment. Shi Yu guessed that it was probably Henry's good friend or something.
At that moment, he heard footsteps approaching. It was possible that someone was coming, but looking at this room, there was no place for him to hide.
With the sound of the door opening, the door was opened.
A man walked into the room,
"Strange, did I leave the window open?"
The wind from the wide-open windows blew on the fluttering curtains.
The man closed a window, left a small gap for air, and then sat in front of his desk.
At that moment, Shi Yu was climbing up the air-conditioner through the window. The frigid wind hit his bones, and soft snow fell on his body.
He stretched his arms to touch the wall as much as possible to maintain his balance. The air-conditioner outside the window was full of snow, so Shi Yu did not dare to move a single step.
If he were not careful, it would be a fall from the 30th floor.
The man in the room dialed a number, and a person came in. Shi Yu, who was standing in the air conditioner, heard a female voice.
However, the wind outside the window severely interfered with his hearing, so he could not hear the conversation in the room.
