Fu Huai 'an propped one hand on the desk and nodded.
"So, I'm thinking that if they leave before our team makes a move, then we'll make our move at Mathews's place. We have detailed information on Mathews's place, so it'll be very convenient!"
Fu Huai 'an nodded, indicating for Little Lu to continue.
"If Mathews and May Myint Yady are on their way to the FFID Building at that time …" Little Lu unfolded the city's traffic map and drew circles on a few routes with a pen. "We might make our move on these few routes! We're also very clear about the situation on these routes from Mathews's place to the FFID Building!"
Little Lu put down the pen, stood up, and continued, "But if it's at the FFID Building, you'll be in the dark if you go in alone. So, I'm thinking that if we're going to make our move in the FFID Building, then I can go in and figure out the situation inside first before you take action. You'll be safer this way!"
Little Lu then looked at the silent Fu Huai 'an, feeling uneasy. "Sir, do you think my plan will work?"
"Does time allow for the plan you're talking about? If time allows for you to go in, but you're stumbled by a sudden accident and can't come out on time to exchange information with me, you'll also be trapped inside when I take action. Then, when everything is over and I leave, are you confident that you'll be able to escape with me?" Fu Huai 'an asked slowly.
Little Lu couldn't answer.
Fu Huai 'an's deep gaze landed on Little Lu's face. Seeing Little Lu's stiff expression, Fu Huai' an pulled up his sleeves and glanced at his watch. "9: 40 am, meet me downstairs at the FFID Building!"
Fu Huai 'an's words were decisive.
Little Lu nodded. It was better than letting him stay in the hotel.
Actually, how could Little Lu not understand that Fu Huai 'an was worried about his safety? Even Little Lu himself felt that if he went, he might cause trouble for Fu Huai' an and become his burden.
"I'll make the arrangements!" Little Lu said.
Fu Huai 'an nodded and retracted his gaze from Little Lu's face. "Paste the information I prepared in my suitcase on the wall!"
When Little Lu took out the documents from Fu Huai 'an's suitcase, he discovered that Fu Huai' an had already prepared a blueprint of the FFID Building. It was more detailed than what Little Lu had prepared, and there was a large amount of Fu Huai 'an's handwriting on it. Fu Huai' an must have prepared all this on the plane.
Little Lu's ears turned a little red. He pasted the documents on the wall one by one, feeling that he and Fu Huai 'an still had a lot to learn.
From the information Fu Huai 'an had prepared, Fu Huai' an was the same as before. He planned to handle the matter in a low-profile manner, treating it as an accident within the scope of his control.
On the afternoon of the ball, Fu Huai 'an's wristwatch showed that it was 7: 17 pm. Marius and May Myint Yady hadn't left the house yet, so Fu Huai' an predicted that they would make their move on the way or at the FFID Building. He picked out the weapons he needed to use that night and placed them in his backpack when Little Lu suddenly pushed open the door and entered in a flustered manner.
"Sir, our informant said that May Myint Yady and Marius are out!"
Fu Huai 'an raised his hand and glanced at his wristwatch. 7: 25 am
Fu Huai 'an calculated that it would take 35 to 40 minutes to get from Marius's residence to the FFID Building. This meant that the action would take place at the FFID Building.
Fu Huai 'an knelt on the ground, wearing the uniform of an air-conditioning repair company. He slung a backpack over his shoulders and hung the wall-piercing grappling hook launcher and zipline behind his waist. He then put on his goggles and said to Little Lu, "There are people watching us downstairs. How are we going to leave without anyone noticing and meet me downstairs at the FFID Building? Think of a way yourself!"
Little Lu's heartbeat suddenly sped up, and he nodded solemnly. "Sir, don't worry."
Fu Huai 'an walked to the French windows and used a suction cup to move away the reinforced glass that had its tape cut off. The cold wind blew in, and the tie in front of Little Lu's chest fluttered in the wind and landed on his face. He narrowed his eyes and saw Fu Huai' an grab the edge of the French windows with one hand and nimbly disappear into Mexico's brightly lit night view. He immediately put down the phone in his hand and jogged over to move the glass back to its original position.
Fu Huai 'an inserted the clip into the metallic seam of the reinforced glass amidst the cold wind, then climbed up to the top bare-handed without any protective measures.
Thankfully, the floor Fu Huai 'an lived on wasn't far from the top, so Fu Huai' an managed to climb up to the top very quickly.
However, May Myint Yady was prepared and had arranged for two people to guard the top floor. After all, the top floor was a large platform, and it wasn't easy for someone to hide there.
After Fu Huai 'an inserted the clip into the metallic seam, he tugged at it to make sure there was no problem. Only then did he connect the safety lock and clip at his waist. He then picked up the grappling hook launcher hanging behind his waist, stepped on it, and aimed at the elevator engine room on the opposite building's balcony. He pulled the trigger, and the zipline behind Fu Huai' an rapidly decreased in number.
After tugging at the rope and making sure that the grappling hook had penetrated through the walls of the elevator engine room, Fu Huai 'an secured one end of the zipline, unlocked the safety lock, and released his grip on the zipline. He then quickly slid down the zipline towards the slightly shorter building.
Once he reached the top floor, Fu Huai 'an swiftly put away all his equipment, grabbed his backpack, opened the door to the balcony, and walked downstairs.
Fu Huai 'an openly walked out of the building opposite the hotel with his backpack in hand. No one noticed him, and he quietly got into an air-conditioning repair company car and drove away.
Little Lu put down the glass. Seeing that Fu Huai 'an had already left, he started to think of a solution.
Actually, it wasn't that Little Lu didn't know that, given Fu Huai 'an's capabilities, it would be a piece of cake for him to leave the FFID building by himself after everything was over. The mission of receiving him downstairs should be a test that Fu Huai' an was giving him.
Little Lu's heart was beating very quickly. He forced himself to calm down, then took out his phone and dialed the number of the World Bank's vice president's secretary, Alyssa, who was in charge of press releases.
The call connected very quickly.
Alyssa, who had just returned to the hotel and put down her backpack, seemed very surprised that Little Lu would call her. After all, she had repeatedly expressed her goodwill to Little Lu previously, but he had always smiled politely and didn't reply.
Moreover, if it were official business, Little Lu had the vice president's special assistant's number. No matter what, he shouldn't have called her.
After hesitating for a moment, Alyssa still picked up Little Lu's call. "Hi, Lu! Why did you think of calling me?"
Alyssa tried to sound as casual as possible. She walked to the water bar, grabbed a cup, twisted open the mineral water bottle, and poured herself a cup of water.
"Sorry, Alyssa, to call you so late at night. Sir wants to rest early tonight, so my time is free. I wonder if you have time? Let's have dinner together!"
