1645 Someone Extraordinary
Meng Jue nodded. “Uh huh. This is a restricted area since the Weapons Bureau’s warehouse facility is located here. Outsiders can’t access it. That’s why I asked if your friend works there.”
Huo Yao’s mind drifted away as she turned off the virtual screen. From the looks of it, he was still busy.
“Is that where you want to go? We can wait outside,” asked Meng Jue again.
Huo Yao especially checked the GPS location, so it was no ordinary place.
She was a little curious.
While she pondered, Meng Jue got ready to turn the car around.
Huo Yao glanced at Meng Jue. “I’m going back to the hotel.”
“Okay.”
Curiosity would kill the cat one day. Meng Jue had just turned on the signal light, but he turned it off.
10 minutes later, the car pulled up in front of the hotel entrance. Huo Yao waved to Meng Jue and opened the car to get off.
After the car left, she turned to enter the hotel.
Huo Yao took a bath after returning to the suite. She came out with her hair dripping but did not dry it properly. Instead, she took her phone from the coffee table.
There were no missed calls or text messages.
It was late at night. Did he really have so much work?
Huo Yao did not feel sleepy, so she decided to take the remote control and turned on the television as she sat on the couch casually.

Meanwhile, the intense gunfire finally came to a halt. With the dark night skies in the background, it went quiet again as it should at this hour of the night.
“Boss, Minister Lin’s men are all under control.” Yang Yi reeked of blood, dressed in black. The moment he saw his boss’s arm, he looked worried. “You’re hurt.”
Min Yu simply raised his arm looking completely calm. He did not care about the injuries. “I’m fine. What time is it?”
Yang Yi heaved a sigh of relief. He hurriedly checked the watch. “It’s nearly midnight.”
“Is it already so late?” Min Yu frowned. He removed his gloves and tossed them to Yang Yi as he walked out of the warehouse. “You handle the rest. I have to go.”
Yang Yi watched in surprise as he took the gloves and watched as his boss left hurriedly.
When Zhuo Yun came over to rendezvous with them, he noticed that Yang Yi was there alone. He raised his head and looked around. “Where’s the boss?”
Yang Yi had already veered his eyes. “He left.”
“Huh? Already? His arm was grazed by a bullet. I wonder if it was serious.” Zhuo Yun touched his nose and spoke in concern.
“I don’t think so.” Yang Yi only took a quick glance at the injury, but it did not seem serious. He said, “Make an inventory count of the warehouse. I’m taking men to Minister Lin’s place now.”
“Sure.” Zhuo Yun nodded without any objections.
…
After getting into the car, Min Yu casually bandaged the injury on his arm before he took the phone from the box in the car.
Since the signals were blocked in the area, he had to drive outside of the signal jammer’s range before he got any signal.
When the signal recovered, he could hear his WeChat notifications going off.
The coldness in Min Yu’s eyes promptly disappeared when he saw the text message. However, he did not reply to them. Instead, he stepped on the gas hard.
It usually took over an hour to get to the hotel, but he got there in roughly 40 minutes.
Min Yu got off the car, took some spare clothes from the backseat, and put them on. Also, he took the gift Zhuo Yun had prepared for him and proceeded to enter the hotel.
It was already 1:00 am. Other than the hotel staff, no one else was in the lobby.
The lift did not stop on its way up to the top floor. Huo Yao had given Min Yu a keycard for the room, so he simply swiped the card to enter the room.
