Chapter 1553: Counter-Tracking
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The expressionless Lin Yi put Schubert under immense pressure.
He felt that this man was even more terrifying than Ning Che.
“My time is limited and I don’t really want to listen to nonsense. I hope you can tell me everything you know about the auction.”
Lin Yi’s voice was low. To Schubert, it was like the god of death whispering in his ear.
“1 really don’t know anything. The reason why we held this auction was because Jeffrey took the initiative to look for us. He said that he had a total of four pieces of jewelry made of Bass ores and wanted to use us as a middleman to auction them. That’s why we cooperated.”
“But up until now, you haven’t ever seen that batch of goods. Why did you publicize this auction so much? Is he really that credible?”
“We know a little about Jeffrey. He’s very famous overseas, so we chose to believe him.”
As he spoke, Schubert trembled, not daring to hide anything.
“The original plan was that he’d tell me the location of the four items last night, and someone from the Fuseby Auction House would pick them up. But it was also last night that we found out the woman had put a tracker on me. Jeffrey didn’t say anything, just to be on the safe side.”
“That’s why you set up today’s game, right?”
“Yes,” Schubert replied noncommittally, saying:
“According to the plan, Jeffrey would tell me where the items were after we captured the woman, but 1 didn’t expect another accident. 1 no longer know if the auction tonight will proceed as planned.”
“You can try to contact him and fight for a chance.”
Although Lin Yi didn’t have much hope in this matter, he had nothing else to do anyway. There was nothing wrong with letting Schubert try his luck.
“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll call him now.”
Lin Yi didn’t say anything else. He placed his feet on the coffee table and rested his head with one hand.
Schubert spent the next few minutes on the phone to Jeffrey.
Although he didn’t know what the other party said, he could guess the result from Schubert’s expression and tone.
Jeffrey refused his request as if there was no room for negotiation.
Tonight’s auction would likely not proceed.
Unless he used something else to fool the bidders.
But once that happens, the credibility of the Fuseby Auction House would be in tatters.
However, Lin Yi didn’t care about this. It wouldn’t affect him anyway. He would let them deal with it themselves.
“Jeffrey didn’t agree to my request. After the commotion, he no longer trusts anyone. He might have already escaped from Doora.”
Lin Yi nodded. Jeffrey would indeed do this.
“I’ve told you everything I know. Can you let me go?”
“Sure. You’re no longer useful to me,” Lin Yi said.
“But you’d better learn to be smart and cooperate when I need you. Otherwise, I’ll send your entire family to meet God.”
“I’ll definitely cooperate with you. I hope you won’t attack my family.”
“That depends on your performance.” Lin Yi raised his head. “Let’s go.”
“Yes, yes, yes. i’ll leave now.”
Schubert’s face was pale, as if he had been pardoned, and he fled the room in a panic.
Facing Lin Yi alone was even more terrifying than facing the Grim Reaper.
After Schubert left, the room fell silent. The sound of waves could be heard by the window.
Lin Yi supported his head with one hand and sat on the sofa without moving.
The reason why he let Schubert go was because this person no longer had any value to him.
The center of all the commotion was Jeffrey.
Now that his lead had disappeared, there was no point in staying in Doora.
The man in black would not appear in front of without a reason.
It can be said that at this moment, people of all kinds with different intentions were all played by Jeffrey.
Ring ring ring!
Just as Lin Yi was deep in thought, his phone rang. It was a call from Ji Qingyan.
“What are you doing, Mr. Lin?”
Ji Qingyan said sweetly over the phone. It was obvious that she was having a good time shopping.
“I’m looking at the scenery by the sea.”
Lin Yi gave her a random excuse.
He had already maxed out his ability to lie through his teeth.
The words came out without any flaws.
“I’m done shopping with Auntie. Stop wandering around the beach and come join us for dinner.”
Lin Yi looked at his watch and realized that it was already past five in the evening. It was indeed time for dinner.
“Send me the location. I’ll go look for you now.”
“The sixth floor of Dooramall. We’re eating here today.”
“Aren’t you sick of it? Why don’t you go somewhere else?”
“If we eat here, we can shop a little longer, so it doesn’t matter what we eat”
Lin Yi rubbed his temples. He felt that he would have to spend tens of millions again today.
After hanging up, Lin Yi packed up and drove to Dooramall.
Jeffrey was already missing. It was impossible to find him again.
This also meant that the Bass ore accessories would not appear, and the man in black would not appear in front of him again.
What he needed to do next was to accompany Ji Qingyan to have fun.
In the villa on Palm Island, Jeffrey and his men gathered around.
But everyone was busy, as if there was something urgent was happening.
Jeffrey had a cigar in his mouth as he sat on the sofa with a gloomy expression. It seemed like he had no intention of leaving Doora.
“Boss, we’ve tracked Schubert’s movements,” one of the men in black said.
“First to the airport, then to the Sailboat Hotel.”
Jeffrey’s men were able to track Schubert’s movements and analyze these things because last night, after discovering that Schubert was being followed, they had also placed a tracker on Schubert without the other party’s knowledge.
That was why after the incident, they immediately locked onto his movements and deduced Lin Yi and Ning Che’s whereabouts.
“The airport? The Sailboat Hotel?”
“We haven’t figured out yet why they went to the airport. We speculate that Schubert was taken to the Sailboat Hotel by those two. Our people are already guarding the entrance, and they will track his movements throughout.”
“Tell whoever’s following to be careful. Those two aren’t simple. They’ll be easily spotted,” Jeffrey advised.
“This matter is very important to me. We can’t let anything go wrong.”
“I’ll let them know.”
“Gather everyone. Bring all the guys. Failure is not an option this time. I want to take both of them away!”
His current situation was directly related to the Central Guards Brigade, so Jeffrey would not give up easily!
This hatred!
He had to take revenge!
