Su Jianyu’s attitude and methods were harsh, not giving Gao Fengshan any room to maneuver. If Gao continued like this, he would be letting the gangster torture the hostages. As a member of the national ESU team, he could not, and would not let this happen.

So Gao Fengshan had to ask his colleagues to speed up. Not long after, they got the car and the cash. However, this car naturally could not be given for free. Gao Fengshan had someone install a tracking device on it. Of course, planting a bomb on it was out of the question. After all, there would be hostages inside. After the car arrived, Gao Fengshan immediately started to contact Su Jianyu through the walkie-talkie in his hand.

“The car and cash you wanted are ready. They’re just outside the building.”

At this moment, Gao Fengshan’s mind was constantly calculating and rehearsing the scene coming up next. He had analyzed Su Jianyu’s ability through the previous scene report. He knew well that Su Jianyu had an extremely strong anti-reconnaissance awareness. Even an extremely concealed and stealthy tactic like the hypnotic gas was discovered by Su Jianyu.

After all, when an ordinary person realized they had breathed in the hypnotic gas, their body would have gone stiff. If someone could discover the hypnotic gas before it took effect, one could imagine how sensitive they were. He had reason to believe that Su Jianyu’s anti-detection awareness was extremely strong. Following that logic, Su Jianyu would definitely have guessed that there was a tracking device in the car that was arranged for him.

Gao Fengshan was certain of that, but that was exactly what he wanted to happen. One of his plans was to have Su Jianyu check for the tracker. That way, he would be exposed. He would be able to let his teammates ambush Su Jianyu and catch him off guard. Of course, this was only one of the possibilities. Gao Fengshan was never someone who would rely on a single plan to defeat his opponent.

He had also considered another possibility, which was that when Su Jianyu was driving, his hands would be occupied. Gao Fengshan could use that opening. At the same time, he also discussed and analyzed the situation with his team members. He knew all the possible routes Su Jianyu could use to drive away. Basically, that was foolproof. He and his team members had full confidence. They were determined to capture Su Jianyu in this operation no matter what!

On the other side, after Gao Fengshan informed Su Jianyu that the things had arrived, Su Jianyu immediately began to analyze the possibilities in his mind. Notwithstanding that Su Jianyu was a new ESU member, he was also an extremely intelligent person.

The car that the police prepared for the gangsters would definitely not be unprepared. At the minimum, there would be a tracker! If he wanted to successfully escape from the pursuit, he had to remove the tracker. However, he definitely could not go up to the car and check for it himself!

That would leave him open. Under the seat, under the dashboard, not to mention under the car itself, all needed to be checked with his head lowered. If he went to check it himself, he might be able to avoid the sniper. However, there would definitely be ESU emergency service members who would ambush him from his blind spots. This was a perfect opportunity for the opponent to subdue him. He could possibly use the hostage to check it out, right? That way, he would definitely be exposed to the sniper’s scope. After all, the car door and the seat were so small. If the two of them squeezed in together, one of them would definitely be exposed.

If he wanted to escort the hostage, he could only do it by using the hostage as cover. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to use much force to retaliate. Even if he told the police about the tracker and asked them to help remove it, they would definitely leave something behind. They would leave the car clean. This part could only be put aside for now. Other than the tracker, Su Jianyu could not be the one driving. When he drove, there would definitely be the police chasing him, and he could not divert his attention away from driving. If he could not do that, there was a possibility that he would not be able to control the hostage. Not to mention that the hostage that he had taken was the deliveryman and officer Yan. These two people were the cream of the crop in the police force. They were not easy to deal with.

Initially, when Su Jianyu had asked for the car, he had thought Yan Tingyun was the only hostage. He could still deal with that, but now, there were two people. That was a little out of his depth at the moment.

Therefore, driving himself made for a good opportunity for the police. However, if he stayed in the building, there was no other way for him to escape. It was impossible for him to be perpetually stuck in a standoff, right? Just as Su Jianyu was thinking of an escape plan in his mind, ding! The system sent him another set pf choices.

[ Host, please choose from the following options. ]

[ Option 1: ride in the vehicle provided by the police. ]

[ reward: stealth ability enhancement, structural engineering knowledge, top-level disguise skills, anti-tracking skills. ]

[ option 2: Do not ride in the vehicle provided by the police. ]

[ reward: Top-level rifle shooting skills, increase in heart and lung endurance, 100,000 yuan, and a car worth 200,000 yuan. ]

Faced with the two options, Su Jianyu looked thoughtful. No matter which option, the rewards were great for Su Jianyu’s current and future missions in the city. Comparing the two, option two’s rewards were less enticing. A stronger heart and lungs were useful. On the other hand, top-notch rifle shooting skills were almost useless in the city. 100,000 was not much cash and a car was nice, but there would definitely be more options in the future. Considering that, the first option was better.

“I choose option 1.”

Su Jianyu muttered in his heart.

[ Congratulations, host, for successfully making a choice. ]

[ The rewards have been distributed. ]

As the system’s voice faded away, all sorts of anti-detection and anti-tracking techniques flooded Su Jianyu’s mind. Following that were a myriad of disguise skills. Su Jianyu felt that with enough tools, he could even completely disguise himself as another person.

Finally, a hologram of various building structures appeared in front of him, allowing him to easily observe and guess the various arrangements of the buildings whenever he needed to. It could be said that the current Su Jianyu could figure out the general floor plan of an entire building with just a glance.

With the rewards in place, it was naturally time to start putting things into action. However, Su Jianyu did not intend to board the police car just like that. He had already thought of a rough idea just now, picking up the walkie-talkie and saying to the other side,

“Go and find me a driver!”

After saying that, Su Jianyu escorted Yan Tingyun and the deliveryman to the door of the building. On the other side, when Gao Fengshan and his teammates heard Su Jianyu’s request, they were shocked! ‘He wants a driver?’ Such a request was indeed beyond their expectations as this was practically giving them an opportunity!

Yet, since Su Jianyu had suggested this method, Gao Fengshan naturally happily played along. He was even a little excited at this moment because this might be a good chance to subdue Su Jianyu.

“Deyi, go play the role of the driver.”

Gao Fengshan called over one of his capable subordinates. Deyi had a lot of achievements in combat. He was also quick-witted and very adaptable.

“Deyi, while you’re driving, see if you can find an opportunity.”

“Remember, make sure you kill him in one hit!”

“Understood, Boss!”

Deyi nodded vigorously, obviously full of confidence.
