Chapter 594: There Are No Foolproof Plans

Chen Zhao furrowed his brows. In the darkness, Pamela was also looking at him.
“You can see me?” Pamela watched him. “You aren’t afraid of me?”
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. He waved his hand and turned to leave.
Laurent was very disappointed that he couldn’t see Pamela again.
He’d gathered his courage to return to this place.
But he couldn’t do anything. Pamela wasn’t willing to appear before him.
Even if she did, Laurent wouldn’t be able to see her.
“Let’s go.”
“How about we wait a bit more?”
“If you keep waiting, then I’ll call Winnip,” Chen Zhao threatened.
Chen Zhao was so done with him.
How old was he and he was still thinking about his crush?
He was afraid that Laurent would divorce Winnip and come harass him and Fali.
He just wanted to live peacefully with Fali.
Chen Zhao was already imagining things in his mind.
In the end, Laurent left with Chen Zhao.
“Where are we going now?”
“Home.”
“And then?”
“Sleep.”
After a pause, Laurent couldn’t help but ask, “Nothing else?”
“How about we mess with each other?”
Laurent turned his head. He didn’t want to tell Chen Zhao that he’d already messed with Chen Zhao yesterday.
But it didn’t seem to have been effective.
As expected, using supernatural forces for a prank wasn’t reliable.
Chen Zhao looked at Laurent. “Are you hiding something from me?”
“No… Didn’t you say you’ll help treat Asand?”
“Not in the mood. I’ll go when I’m in a better mood.”
Just then, Chen Zhao’s phone rang.
“Hey, Rasfa.”
“Chen, do you want an invitation to the auction at Hilda Hotel on the seventh?”
Hearing that there was an auction, Laurent immediately cut in, “Yes. Prepare more than one.”
“Chen, is that your friend?”
“Fali’s dad.”
“Okay, sir. How many?”
“Seven people.”
Chen Zhao was speechless.
“No problem. I’ll have Paul bring it to your house later?”
“Okay.”
Chen Zhao was feeling worse. He hung up and shot a resentful look at Laurent.
“You’re going to stay until the seventh?”
“You hate me this much?”
“You already know the answer. And what seven people do we have?”
“You, me, Fali, Karim, Kane, Howard, and Asand.”
“Then you’re in charge of pushing the wheelchair. I’m not going to care about you.”
Chen Zhao knew that Laurent was just causing trouble for him.
…
Hilda Hotel
A piercing alarm rang through the lobby. Many of the guests there were frightened.
The guards and lobby manager hurried over. The manager went to the front desk. “What happened? Who set off the alarm?”
“Manager, the alarm is broken. It goes off randomly.”
“Which company installed the security system?”
“Higg Security Company,” the front desk staff said.
“Call them and have them come check.”
Twenty minutes later, a few uniformed men came to the front desk.
“Are you the repairmen from Higg?”
“Yes. What is the problem?”
“The alarm went off for no reason. Can you check what’s wrong with it?”
The manager led the repairmen to the security room.
The workers started checking the circuits, but there was something wrong with their gazes.
But the manager didn’t notice their subtle movements.
“We fixed it. It was just a short-circuit.”
The manager led them out of the security room.
After the repairmen left the hotel, they ducked right into a car.
“Boss, we finished the deployment. On the day of the mission, you just need to press a button and the hotel’s security system and surveillance equipment will all be shut off.”
“Good. After this job, all of us will be able to retire.” The DK boss nodded in satisfaction. “Right, how’s Quincy?”
“Quincy’s arms went through special treatment. He’ll be able to work tomorrow.”
“That’s good. If he can’t participate, then we’ll have to change plans.”
“Boss, Quincy keeps yelling about revenge.”
“I already warned all of you before our mission to stay low-key. I thought that he’d know that if I let him lead the mission. But ten days after the Engineer landed in L.A., he was already arrested. Then Quincy got beaten up and sent to the hospital. Do you think the DK is already strong enough to straight up against the police?”
The DK boss continued coldly, “Let me repeat myself. I’ll naturally think of a way to help him take revenge after this mission, but if he dares to mess around beforehand, I’ll toss him down from the top of Hilda Hotel. I’m not a sentimental person.”
…
“Chen, I found some things.” Kate was calling Chen Zhao.
“Oh? What did you find out?”
“I started investigating the guy called Engineer,” Kate said. “His alias is Phero Kirk and he works at an electricity company as a repairman. In the beginning, I thought that they had an ulterior motive related to the company. But then I realized that in the ten days after he started working there, he’d gone out on five jobs. Three were to the same place.”
“Where?”
“Hilda Hotel.”
Chen Zhao was shocked. “Hilda Hotel?”
“The person who called him is the front desk receptionist of Hilda Hotel, Lina Hather. She called them for repairs all three times. She also arrived at L.A. by plane a few days ago and went to an interview at Hilda Hotel on the second day. She got the job the day of. The one who interviewed her was the lobby manager. He’d been revealed to harass interviewers before.”
“Wait, let me get this straight. First, that Lina Hather had sex with the manager and became the receptionist of Hilda Hotel. Then she’s able to cooperate with Phero and do unknown things to the electricity system of the hotel?”
“Yes, that should be it.”
Chen Zhao couldn’t help but be impressed. Kate’s professionalism wasn’t any weaker than an experienced police investigator.
She was able to discover so much information from clues that others wouldn’t be able to think of.
“I also saw that Hilda Hotel’s repair reports in the past three months were more than in the last three years. It’s not just electricity. There were also many repairs for the alarm and sewage system.”
“So, not only did Lina infiltrate the hotel, many other members of DK have gotten in too? And they’re secretly damaging all sorts of infrastructure while deploying things?”
“Yes.”
