Atlas of Heaven and Man

Chen Chuan had no questions about Wei Changan's arrangements and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Brother Wei."

Seeing that Wei Changan seemed to have more to say to Cai Si, he said, "Brother Wei, I'll go down and familiarize myself with the surroundings first, and I'll be back in a while."

Wei Changan said, "Okay, be careful."

After he left, Cai Si said to Wei Changan, "Brother Wei, this Junior Brother Chen is not bad."

Generally speaking, newcomers like Chen Chuan, especially those with skills, love to show off and don't like being assigned to the rear.

But because they lack experience, they can easily mess things up. He had been through that himself, so he generally didn't like newcomers joining.

However, Chen Chuan was the one who provided the clue and was also the main participant, so it was impossible to leave him out.

Fortunately, Chen Chuan was very self-aware, which made things much easier.

Sometimes they are not afraid of danger, but afraid of their own people holding them back.

Wei Changan said, "Don't underestimate him. Although he's two years younger than us, the last time we were assigned a mission, I was supposed to lead him, but Guo Fatty played tricks and I almost crashed.

It was thanks to him that the person was caught. This junior brother is skilled and acts decisively. If he gets a year or two of experience, most of us will be inferior to him."

"Really?" Cai Si said in surprise, "He's quite capable."

Wei Changan said, "Let's not talk about him. You all need to be careful this time.

Our current information is all obtained from that 'Brother Tian'. Due to time constraints and various limitations, we don't have the ability to verify everything one by one, so we can only choose to believe it.

But the specific situation is difficult to predict, and nothing can be foolproof, so we must be vigilant."

But if we can succeed and follow this lead to find Fang Dawei and his gang, with this experience, everyone will have a chance to be promoted to senior commissioner in the future, and then we will have the opportunity to work independently, so we must give it our all."

Cai Si nodded silently.

He thought for a moment and said softly, "Brother Wei, I have to remind you that now, apart from our own brothers and classmates, most of the others are sent by the company.

I'm afraid there are people inside who will try to sabotage us. You know, it's difficult to succeed, but it's very easy to ruin things."

Wei Changan said, "I know, so key positions can only be given to our own brothers.

Speaking of which, Junior Brother Chen is trustworthy. You can trust him at critical moments."

Cai Si said with a smile, "It seems that you put him in that position not just to take care of him, Brother Wei. Okay, I understand."

Chen Chuan had already arrived downstairs at this time. Knowing that there was something going on today, he didn't wear his student uniform and specifically changed into an ordinary jacket.

He first walked around the trade market. The front part mainly sells daily necessities and clothing, and the main business should be wholesale.

There are many tricycles coming and going, and not far away there is also a vegetable market and a fruit market.

Walking on the road in the middle of the market, looking back, you can see a row of windows facing here on the building through the large characters on the signboard above the market.

The intersection that Wei Changan asked him to guard later was in the front section, with shops selling daily groceries and food on both sides.

After taking a turn, he bought a bag of apples and three bottles of soda, and walked back along the street.

However, when he turned the corner, he glanced at the building and saw a woman walking out from there. He couldn't help but pay a few more glances.

This was because although the other party was a middle-aged woman, judging from the rhythm of her walking, she seemed to have practiced martial arts.

However, there were many people who had practiced martial arts in this era, so he just glanced at her and withdrew his gaze.

He returned to Wei Changan and the others' base all the way, put the apples on the table, and handed two bottles of soda to the two of them respectively.

Cai Si took it with a smile and said, "Junior brother, you even brought things. You're so polite. Okay, Fourth Brother will definitely take care of you later."

Wei Changan took it but didn't drink it. He just washed an apple and ate it. Then he went to change his clothes.

After coming out, he looked at his watch and said, "There's still an hour and a half. We need to prepare first. I'll arrange you first, and then go and keep an eye on things one by one. Come with me."

He took the two of them to the section of the road in front of the trade market, walked into a grain and oil shop located on the side of the street, greeted the boss, walked inside, and handed a piece of paper to Chen Chuan, instructing:

"Junior brother, according to the plan, we'll take action at ten o'clock. At ten fifteen, the personnel will gather in batches on the roof. Around ten twenty, firecrackers will go off, which may be delayed a little.

We'll take action half a minute after the firecrackers go off, so at ten o'clock, you call this number and ask them to cut the phone line."

This was to prevent any hidden informants from calling Scarface when they took action.

Although Scarface's informants might not use the phone to notify him, the possibility was extremely small, and it was better to do it than not to do it.

Chen Chuan looked at the number and said okay.

Wei Changan looked at Cai Si again and said, "Keep an eye on things."

Cai Si nodded solemnly.

After Wei Changan left, the two of them waited patiently there, occasionally chatting a few words.

Cai Si told Chen Chuan that there were not only the two of them here, but also some helpers who were responsible for assisting.

For example, the owner of this shop was one of their own, and if there was anything that needed to be done, they could let them come forward.

While waiting patiently, more than an hour passed, and it was soon ten o'clock.

Cai Si had been paying attention to the time, and at this time he looked up and said, "Junior brother, Brother Wei should have started going upstairs. It's time to make the call!"

Chen Chuan was guarding next to the telephone. Hearing this, he didn't have any questions. He immediately picked up the telephone receiver, and then dialed a number.

After the call was connected, he said according to the prompt on the note, "This is the capture team, requesting to cut off the telephone line immediately."

The other side said, "Understood, execute immediately."

Chen Chuan put down the phone and nodded to Cai Si, who then walked to the side of the shop, looked up at the top, and occasionally looked at his watch.

About five or six minutes later, suddenly, the street of the trade market behind them became noisy, followed by a burst of clamor and footsteps running.

Someone shouted, "A fight broke out, a fight broke out."

Cai Si was stunned, looked back at the upstairs, and muttered, "It seems like there's some trouble."

At this moment, Wei Changan and five others had already sneaked onto the roof.

They came up one by one from the predetermined location, so no one noticed.

However, the number of people who should have arrived was still half short at this time.

They were not in a hurry. There were still seven or eight minutes before the scheduled time, which was enough.

But at this moment, they suddenly heard a commotion in the market to the north, as if something had gone wrong.

Someone poked his head out and looked and said, "Brother Wei, there's a situation."

Wei Changan frowned. It was common for trouble to occur in this trade market, but this timing made them a little uncomfortable.

It was very easy to attract Scarface's attention to that side.

Moreover, the riot was too coincidental at this time. He instinctively felt that he couldn't wait any longer and immediately said, "The situation is not right. Something may have changed. We must take action immediately!"

Someone reminded, "But Brother Wei, the people haven't arrived yet."

Wei Changan said, "We'll take action first and hold them back. They'll know what to do when they come up!"

"Wait a minute."

One person grabbed him and said seriously, "Commissioner Wei, now we can't be sure whether Scarface has noticed that side.

In that case, we should simply choose to break through from the south first, and the people who arrive later will enter from the north. Wouldn't the chance be greater with a two-sided encirclement?"

Everyone couldn't help but look at Wei Changan, waiting for him to make a decision.

Wei Changan thought for a moment. This plan was just to change the original order of breaking through from north to south, so he decisively said, "Okay, let's do it this way. Don't wait any longer, take action immediately!"

Wei Changan and the others carefully moved to the south side here, trying not to make any noise under their feet.

Then three of them grabbed one end of the rope, and the other three grabbed the rope and jumped out, using the force of the pull to hit the old window.

With a crash, the window shattered. Wei Changan rolled and got up after crashing in, but saw that the easternmost room was empty, and the sounds of shouting and fighting came from the other rooms.

He immediately rushed into the door of another room.

As soon as he pushed the door open, a gust of fist wind rushed towards him. He tilted his head to avoid it, stretched out his hand and pushed, and the other side also kicked over.

Amidst the bursting of strength, the two people shook at the same time. He didn't retreat half a step, but that person fell back, glanced at him, and scrambled up.

Without thinking, he jumped out of the window opened to the north.

Wei Changan ignored him and rushed into the inner room. He saw a teammate entangled with a person and shouted at him, "Scarface is next door!"

Wei Changan immediately ran to the last room, but only ran halfway when with a bang, the wall opposite was broken, and a teammate flew out with the bricks and stones.

He quickly raised his hand to cover himself and took a few steps back.

After patting away the dust, he saw a burly man wearing a gray-blue overalls, with thick legs and a scar on his face, standing there, holding a large machete in one hand and a construction hammer in the other.

His expression became solemn, and he shouted, "Scarface!"
