Chapter 37 - Cat and Mouse Game, Face to Face with K

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Everyone in the meeting room was silent. Apart from thinking about K’s provocation, they did not have any other thoughts for the time being.
“What is the purpose of this game she set up?”
Guan Feng was still the person who was most enthusiastic in the discussion. When everyone was silent, he was the one who broke the silence.
“And she even restricted the time. Who were the three tycoons she captured?”
Zhang Zhi immediately questioned. He was not good at case analysis since data analysis was what he was best at.
“According to the time limit stated in the letter, the game will end at six in the afternoon. When should we start our operation?”
Zhou Zhan maintained his usual style. If he could take action, he wouldn’t just sit in the office and wait.
“What should we even do? I still have no idea…”
Ong softly questioned when he heard the other party’s words. Usually, when it came to case analysis, he would not have his own thoughts and would just listen to the arrangements.
“Aiya, my head is about to explode. Han Ning, tell me, what should we do next?”
Everyone spoke one round, and Ya Cai still did not have any clues after listening to everyone’s opinions. After yesterday’s failure, he still had not recovered and was afraid to make a decision.
Han Ning sighed. He didn’t know what to do next. He could only take the warning letter from K again and read the game rules over and over again.
The letter did not contain specific information about the three games she had mentioned. It only asked the special investigation team to go to the King’s Road first and find clues to the next game among the parade . Another thing was that they could not use their police identities to participate in the game. This meant that they would have to lose the convenience brought by their police identities.
“Zhang Zhi, stay in the office. No matter what method you use, find out the owner of the villa next to Ke Qing’s.”
After thinking for a long time, Han Ning finally began to make arrangements.
“Zhou Zhan and Guan Feng, the two of you will act in pairs. Ya Cai, you can pair up with Ong. The remaining two will stay behind to help Zhang Zhi investigate. Try your best to find out K’s true identity.”
“I think there must be a lot of information we leaked from the surveillance cameras. We can only hope that there are clues to K’s movements…”
After Han Ning finished setting up, everyone now had a direction and were no longer dispirited.
“Everyone, put on your earphones. Those who are going out, don’t be rash when you encounter enemies. Report to each other in time. Let’s move!”
“Yes!”
The discussion lasted for a long time. There were only five hours left until the end of the game. The members of the special investigation team left the police station without even eating lunch and began to work separately.
Han Ning acted alone and was more mobile. He was prepared to support the other teams at any time.
When the five people who went out arrived at King’s Road, they realized that today was the annual Loy Krathong Festival of Thailand. There was a celebration on the street, and it was extremely lively. There were too many people gathered, which was extremely disadvantageous for Han Ning and the others to search.
“Guan Feng, Ya Cai, did you guys find anything?”
Han Ning walked through the crowd and asked through his earpiece. He was eager to find out if the four people who had squeezed into the crowd from two other directions had noticed anything.
“Not yet. We’re almost approaching the Buddha statue in the middle.”
Zhou Zhan and Guan Feng walked from the end of the road to the middle. They were about to reach the place where they had agreed to meet.
“I’ve already arrived at the Buddha statue. I didn’t discover anything.”
Han Ning frowned. He walked around the entire parade but did not find anything.
Five minutes later, the five people in three groups met under the Buddha statue.
“This shouldn’t be the case. According to the notification, we should have already arrived. Why isn’t there anything…” Ya Cai guessed.
Han Ning was also very puzzled as he carefully observed the Buddha statue in front of him.
“Han Ning, look at it. Is there a piece of paper stuck to it?!”
Zhou Zhan’s observational ability was indeed the strongest. No one noticed the A4 paper stuck to the back of the Buddha statue’s head. Only he saw it.
“That’s the one. Take it off.”
After spending some effort to take down the piece of paper, they found out that it was indeed K’s hint. The next step was to split the team and continue the game in three directions.
Han Ning frowned. How did the other party know that they were split into three groups?
“Ong and I will go to this bomb shelter. That place is somewhat remote. It’ll be difficult for you to find it.”
After looking at three places, Ya Cai chose the furthest and most remote place.
“Then Zhou Zhan and I will go to this Muay Thai Boxing Club. We should be able to find it.”
After saying this, Guan Feng looked at Han Ning and waited for his permission.
“Then that’s it. I’ll go to the Four-faced Buddha Temple. Everyone must be careful. I keep feeling that something is wrong. K will definitely not play games with us obediently.”
After Han Ning finished speaking, the group parted again. On the way to the agreed-upon location, the more he thought about it, the more Han Ning felt that something was wrong.
After turning the car around, Han Ning went straight to The Bamboo Bar. Han Ning realized that this so-called game was nothing more than a trap set by K. Even if all three games were won, it was very likely that no one would be saved.
“Zhou Zhan, Ya Cai, where are you guys?!”
“We’re at the entrance of the Muay Thai Boxing Club. What happened to Han Ning?”
“We’re still a short distance away.”
The news of the other two teams came through the earpiece. Han Ning heaved a sigh of relief. He had finally caught up and hurriedly said.
“Don’t go. The game is K’s trap. I don’t know what’s waiting for you inside, but it’s definitely not a good thing. All of you should come to The Bamboo Bar right now. I’m rushing over!”

After informing the others, Han Ning arrived at the street where The Bamboo Bar was located. All the other bars nearby were normal, except for this one. Compared to usual, besides being cold and cheerless, it seemed a little bleak.
After staring at the door of the bar for a while on the opposite street, he decided to go in and take a look. He had to take a look at the tiger’s den. After all, it was hard to say what was going on inside.
Han Ning pushed open the door. The Bamboo Bar was indeed very cold and empty despite it being a 5’o clock. In the past, it would be lively at this time, but today, there were no guests at all.
Only a long-haired woman in a red dress was sitting at the bar. Ann was sitting in a chair in the corner, and the bartender was shivering beside her. Behind the two of them stood a burly man with a gun in his hand.
Taking in the situation in the room, Han Ning was about to make his next move when he felt a hard pillar-like thing touch the back of his head. He knew what it was.
To show that he was harmless, he raised his hands to the left and right of his head.
The man behind him searched his body and confirmed that he indeed did not have any weapons on him. Then, the man pushed his gun towards Han Ning’s shoulder forward and motioned him to move forward.
He could see eight armed bodyguards in the bar, but he wasn’t sure if there were any others that were hidden. Moreover, the other party had a hostage. Han Ning realized that he really couldn’t escape, so he could only listen to what the other party wanted to do first.
“Officer Han, come and sit. There’s no need to be so formal.”
“Ah Da, leave. Officer Han is harmless now.”
The woman sensed Han Ning coming behind her and said softly.
