Chapter 1975: Figure discrimination

“Your level is higher than hers and you’re more experienced than her. Why did you send her in?” Lin Yi asked casually.
“We originally went together, but I wasn’t hired, she was,” Yu Siying said.
“What do they mean by that? Do they look down on Sister Ying?” Zhao Yunhu said.
“Right, their looks and figures are almost the same, how come Sister Ying got left out?” Shao Jianfeng added.
“Hey, hey, hey, I believe their looks are similar, but one is a B and the other is a D. Their figures are worlds apart, so it’s only natural Ying didn’t get selected,” Zhang Chaoyue said.
“Damn it, Zhang Chaoyue, I’ll kill you!”
Xiao Bing shrugged. “If I had known, I would’ve gone too. Maybe I could’ve been selected.”
Yu Siying, “…”
“Alright, stop rubbing salt in her wounds,” Lin Yi said.
Yu Siying, “…”
“You guys are too much.”
“Come on, let’s get back to business.”
Lin Yi looked at Yu Siying and said,
“Although boxing culture is popular in Shianggang, it shouldn’t be enough to attract someone like Fang Shihong.”
“Boss, you don’t know the truth,” Yu Siying said.
“A new piece of land has come up in Shianggang, and all three major groups want it. They decided to settle it through a boxing match. So, this boxing match is just a cover; the real goal is to seize the land.”
Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully. “So that’s how it is.”
Because Ji Qingyan was in the real estate business, Lin Yi had some understanding of this field.
Although the land prices in Yanjing and Zhonghai were also sky-high, they were nothing compared to Shianggang.
He remembered reading a news article recently about a parking space in a luxury neighborhood being auctioned for 10 million yuan.
Lin Yi was astonished by this.
A parking space for 10 million yuan? Such places were clearly out of reach for ordinary people.
“Boss, should we sneak in and help Hongmen win the match? We can use the opportunity to get close to them.” Shao Jianfeng suggested.
“No need. Leave that to Qiu Yuluo and her team.”
Qiu Yuluo was an intelligence expert for the Central Guards Brigade. At this moment, Lin Yi didn’t trust anyone else to investigate Hongmen except her.
“By the way, besides the three major organizations, is anyone else participating in this boxing match?” Lin Yi asked.
“The rest are just individual participants, essentially there to entertain. The real competition is between the three main groups,” Yu Siying explained.
“I think if Fang Shihong shows up at this match, it could be a real opportunity.”
“But the problem is, there will definitely be skilled bodyguards around Fang Shihong. It won’t be easy to get close to him,” Xiao Bing said.
“As long as we find their base of operations, I don’t think it will be an issue,” Zhao Yunhu said.
“The biggest problem now is we haven’t figured out their whereabouts. Otherwise, we could go straight for the heart.”
“This isn’t something that can be done overnight. You all get ready and go check it out tonight,” Lin Yi said, standing up.
“Fang Shihong’s fate will be decided tonight.”
Leaving the hotel, Xiao Bing rented a minivan with a Shianggang license plate. Though it was a bit old, it was still functional, and they headed towards Keiloon.
Keiloon in Shianggang was well-known to many because of various movies and comics.
However, there was once a place here that everyone knew. It was the Keiloon Walled City!
In the past, Keiloon Walled City was an ancient city located in Keiloon District. Just like modern Middle Eastern cities, it was filled with violence, crime, and the trade and sale of contraband.
Although it had been demolished and rebuilt, the legends and customs here did not fade at all. It even seemed to be getting more and more intense. It was just that it was not as blatant as before and was carried out in secret.
Shiangangang Wanli Hotel was located on the ruins of Keiloon Walled City. It was an out-and-out five-star hotel.
Wanli Hotel was famous because it inherited all the properties of Keiloon Walled City from the past.
During the day, this place was glamorous, but at night, any dirty deal might be discovered here.
There were once people who wanted to stamp out the chaos in Wanli Hotel, but a car accident happened the next day. From then on, no one dared to say anything about investigating Wanli Hotel.
After all, this was a big cake. Whoever dared to touch it would die.
About an hour later, Lin Yi and the others drove to Wanli Hotel.
Wanli Hotel was not very tall, but it occupied a huge area.
The entire area was about the size of a football field.
It gave off a heavy and domineering feeling.
The group parked the car in an inconspicuous place and observed every move at the door.
Due to the boxing competition, many luxury cars were parked at the entrance of the hotel. The people in the cars were walking into the hotel one after another.
However, other than those glamorous people, there were also ordinary-looking people walking towards the hotel.
However, the two types of people walked through different doors. They were divided into three, six, and nine levels.
Lin Yi looked out of the window, even though there were many rich people around.
However, these people did not seem to have anything to do with Fang Shihong. The target did not appear.
“Ask Luo Qi about her situation.”
Xiao Bing took out her phone and sent a message to Luo Qi.
But after a long time, Luo Qi’s message came.
“Boss, Qiqi said she saw Fang Shihong in the hotel!” Xiao Bing said in surprise.
Hearing this news, the people in the car were a little excited.
The target had already appeared. All that was left was to think of a way to carry out the mission.
“Where is he?” Lin Yi asked softly.
“We don’t know the details yet, but Qiqi guessed that he would be on the second floor,” Xiao Bing said.
“From the looks of it, they should have arrived long ago.”
Lin Yi nodded. “Tell her to be careful. This information is sufficient. She has to ensure her own safety.”
“Got it.”
After Xiao Bing replied, the few of them gathered together again.
“I’ll assign tasks.” Lin Yi said.
“Siying, you and Zhang Chao are in Team 1. Sneak into the arena and make some noise. You just have to stop the competition. You don’t have to do anything else.”
“Understood!” The two of them replied in unison.
“Go now, tell me when you are ready, and follow my instructions on when exactly to act.”
“Understood!”
The two of them responded again, then opened the car door and got out. They walked towards the hotel.
After the two left, Lin Yi looked at Zhao Yunhu and said,
“Yunhu, follow me in. Find the hotel’s equipment room and confirm the location of the main power switch. Then, wait for my order.”
“Understood!”
