Chapter 602 - Arrival

Chapter 602 - Arrival

Li Huowang looked nervous. He was sitting on the plastic seat of a public bus and was biting the back of his hand with his teeth.

His mind replayed everything that he had gone through recently as he stared at the streets outside.

He was wearing a white mask to cover the scars on his face and to make sure that he wouldn't get recognized.

After some hesitation, he took out Wu Cheng’s phone and dialed a phone number that he had memorized.

“...Hello? Who is this?” Yang Na’s soft voice sounded over the phone.

Li Huowang’s heart trembled upon hearing her voice. It had been a very long time since he heard her voice.

”Hello? Who is this?”

Li Huowang quickly regained his composure. He pinched his throat and deliberately lowered his voice, “Hello, is this ID Good Rabbit? There are two parcels for you here. Can you please come out of school to pick them up? They’re large, and it’s not convenient for me to leave them at a storage unit.”

“What? Parcels? I haven’t bought anything, though...”

“Perhaps someone sent them to you. Please come out and sign the delivery forms.”

“Sorry, I’m not available right now. I’m not at school today, too. If you can't leave them in a storage unit, then just return them.”

Li Huowang was reassured upon hearing that. It seemed that Yi Donglai had conveyed his message to Yang Na.

Regardless of where Yang Na was hiding, it was much better than staying in one place.

They just needed to hold on until he reached Beihai Port. Once Xu Shou was no more, Yang Na would be safe.

“...Huowang?” Yang Na asked, sounding hesitant.

Li Huowang’s heart trembled, but he forcibly calmed himself down and said, “What? Anyway, all right. I’ll go and bring these two parcels back to the hub. I still have other parcels to deliver."

With that, Li Huowang ended the call and blocked the number.

Li Huowang covered his mouth with his hand and closed his eyes in pain. He really wanted to meet Yang Na, but this wasn’t the right time.

She was in danger, and he had to ensure her safety before anything else.

Moreover, Li Huowang reckoned that Yang Na would only feel worried about him if he were to meet her right now.

“What.. what do you want?” Old Liu asked with an ashen look.

“There’s no one at home. My... my son is at work, and my grandson is in school.”

“I’m not going to do anything; I just need to make sure that you won't call the police once I've left you alone!”

“I really won’t call the police, Little Li. Please spare me. I really was just sick at the time; I didn’t mean to hurt your girlfriend.”

Unfortunately, Old Liu’s words didn't convince Li Huowang nor weaken his determination.

They soon arrived at Old Liu’s home. It was a second-floor apart in a small residential area, and there was no one inside. Old Liu hadn't lied.

However, Li Huowang was still dissatisfied, so he decided to tape Old Liu to the toilet. He did it tightly so that Old Liu would find it difficult to break free.

He ignored Old Liu’s pleas, but he didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he went into the kitchen to select a handy tool.

A little saw wouldn't be enough to handle his opponent. He needed a handier and more powerful weapon.

“Little Li, I beg you, I really won’t call the police!” Old Liu exclaimed. The crisp sound of metal scraping against metal echoed from the kitchen, and it made Old Liu shudder.

Li Huowang picked up a long-handled boning knife and returned to the bathroom.

“Little Li, you can kill me, but can you spare my grandson?” Old Liu pleaded in despair.

Li Huowang frowned deeply and said, “How many times must I tell you? I've recovered!”

“Yes, yes, you’ve recovered, you’ve recovered crazy,” Old Liu said, nodding repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.

Li Huowang gagged Old Liu and even sealed it with tape to ensure that Old Liu wouldn't be able to make any noises. “Sorry, you've recognized me, so I have no choice but to do this."

Having resolved the unexpected danger, Li Huowang pushed the door open and walked out of the apartment.

Li Huowang went down the stairs and returned to the bus stop at the entrance of the residential area. He hopped onto a bus that was heading to Beihai Port.

As the number of people on the bus dwindled, the frown on Li Huowang's face became tighter.

Soon, they arrived at the port, and the stacked shipping containers made him feel oppressed.

Li Huowang was in a dilemma. How could he infiltrate the place?
