Chapter 122: Old Customer
After Caroline left the villa area, she hailed a taxi and went to an old neighborhood. Then, she changed her route a few times and finally stopped in front of a house.
The time was now half past twelve. Caroline had been waiting there for more than fifteen minutes before the target finally appeared.
The tall man, who reeked of alcohol, was a little weak. He opened the door with his key and was about to close the door when a hand suddenly patted his shoulder from behind.
The man was so frightened that he shrieked. The helmet in his hand quickly slipped back. Fortunately, Caroline knew that he was not an honest person, so she was prepared. She grabbed his hand and twisted it. Then, she pushed him into the house and closed the door with her leg.
The man was pushed to the entrance and could not move. A voice came from behind him, “Hey, Will Sr. Long time no see.”
The man was pushed to the entrance and could not move. A voice came from behind him, “Hey, Will Sr. Long time no see.”
The familiar movements and voice brought him back to that afternoon. Will Sr.’s pupils shrank for a moment before he blurted out, “It’s L, you witch!”
“It seems like your brain hasn’t been completely eaten by alcohol?” Caroline released her grip and took a few steps back to lean against the wall. She was in a position where she could attack or retreat at will.
Will Sr., who had regained his freedom, shook his numb hand and muttered a few words in dissatisfaction, “After all, it’s my first time meeting such a tough woman like you. I can’t forget you even if I want to.”
The lights in the room were off. Even though the switch was in will Sr.’s hand, he didn’t dare to reach out to turn it on. The only light in the room was from the street lamp outside. Caroline was hiding behind the light.
So when will Sr. looked up, he could only see a vague outline.
Caroline’s sudden appearance in his house made will Sr. wary. He touched the shoe cabinet at the entrance with one hand. He had hidden a gun there, and he only hoped that if the witch in front of him wanted to do something to him, he would still have time to take out the gun to save himself.
Before that, he couldn’t act rashly before Caroline showed more hostility. However, it didn’t mean that he would allow Caroline to break into his house at will. Thus, even though he was afraid, he still warned her, “L, you have crossed the line today.”
His trading place had always been in the store. He was only responsible for making and selling these guns. He never cared what those people did with the guns after they bought them. No customers had ever come to his house.
After Caroline heard it, she apologized perfunctorily. “I’m sorry, it’s a little urgent. I can’t show my face in the shop now, so I can only come to visit you in the middle of the night.”
Her words didn’t make will Sr. relax. Instead, he became even more nervous. “If you want to place an order, you can send me a message directly. You don’t have to come all the way here.” He didn’t want to get involved in this inexplicable matter.
However, things did not go as he wished. Caroline made the trip here not to buy more weapons. “Old Will, it’s too late. I don’t want to beat around the bush with you. I’m here today because I have a collaboration to discuss with you. You should still have some orders, right?”
Will Sr.’s pupils contracted for a moment, then he played dumb and said, “I, Will Sr., have some reputation, so I naturally have a lot of orders on hand.”
Caroline looked at him with a half-smile and said, “Old Will, a straightforward person does not resort to insinuations. You know that the contract I’m talking about and the contract you’re talking about are not the same.”
Will Sr. still didn’t want to admit it, but Caroline immediately reported a series of numbers. He panicked for a moment and immediately grabbed the gun at the entrance and pointed it at Caroline. His voice was a little nervous. “As expected of the famous hacker, L. You can even capture such secret information. Tell me, why did you come to find me today?”
Even with a gun pointed at her, Caroline was still very calm. She didn’t even move. “I’ve already said that I have something to cooperate with you on.” After she said this, she paused and added, “And you better put away your gun. I hate it when people point their guns at me.”
Will Sr. gritted his teeth and sized Caroline up for a while. After confirming that she had no ill intentions, he put down his gun unwillingly. “First of all, I don’t know why you came to me, but this can only be considered as a part-time job. I might not be able to meet your requirements.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Caroline shrugged. “Because I’m in need of money now.”.
