The delivery man looked at his vehicle and moved ahead.
The person was about to leave the compound when, suddenly, a loud and piercing scream rang through the client’s house.
Bai Anan immediately snapped to attention and sprang to her feet. She spoke into the walkie-talkie, “Hurry up! Go and see what’s happening!!”
Ever since Traceless had held her hostage, she had not dared to involve herself in the action and just gave instructions from a distance.
She couldn’t possibly risk her own life to fight Traceless. In case Traceless made her a scapegoat, even in her last moment before death, it wasn’t worth it.
But right now, Bai Anan was extremely anxious and truly wanted to go and see the situation for herself.
At this point, one of the team members spoke, “Team Leader Bai, it’s- it’s—”
“What is it?!”
“That package, there was a dead rat inside! And- and in its mouth… the gemstone!”
The gemstone in its mouth.
This meant that the gemstone had been placed into the rat’s mouth.
Bai Anan’s pupils shrank back and she turned her head around to look at Liang Liang. He was looking at the delivery man, who was about to leave the compound.
His expression was shocked and confused, but there was also happiness and gratitude.
She was alive.
But it was also this expression that led Bai Anan to understand…
That the delivery man was Traceless!
“Arrest that delivery man! Snipers get ready! Shoot at the delivery man!” Bai Anan shouted immediately.
Liang Liang snapped to attention upon hearing those instructions. He turned to look at Bai Anan and asked, “What did you say? Snipers?!”
He lifted his gaze and looked around.
Indeed, not far from where they were, he saw a hidden sniping point.
Liang Liang was livid at once and demanded, “Bai Anan, what is this?! Don’t you know this is a residential area! You could hurt a civilian by doing this!”
Bai Anan smirked and said, “It’s not the civilians you’re worried about, it’s Traceless, isn’t it? Brother Liang, I’m telling you now, even if she has wings, she’s not going to get out of here today!”
On this note, Bai Anan shoved Liang Liang aside, dashed out and shouted, “Snipers get ready!”
“No!”
Liang Liang followed her closely.
–
The corners of Qiao Yiyi’s mouth curved into a smile.
Did they think she was a fool?!
The other night, even if Lu Nanze was cunning enough to find out she was going to the Li family, how could Bai Anan and Liang Liang have known about it too? It had to be her client who had given it away.
The client could no longer be trusted.
But she had to come today because her place in the world of organized crime as Traceless, the professional thief, must remain unshaken.
She had to maintain her reputation as a professional thief.
Hence, it was necessary to make the delivery to the client. And she didn’t want to merely deliver the item, she wanted to give the client a big gift.
The dead rat was a warning to the world of organized crime that she, Traceless, was not an easy pushover.
Under the watchful eyes of the police, she could come and go without a trace, and even give her client a warning. Thus, if a future client even thought of betraying her, he wouldn’t just get a dead rat.
Qiao Yiyi quickened her steps at this thought.
As a sharp person, she soon realized that there was a sniper aiming at her. In a flash, she jumped out of the delivery vehicle and rolled on the ground. After getting on her feet, she ran away like a lightning bolt.
