Chapter 931: Lin Fanpeng Captured
The third squad changed into plain clothes and swaggered into the building's corridor.
Then Gu Qiaoqiao sharply noticed that there were a few more snipers on the opposite rooftop. If not for her keen eyesight, she couldn't have seen them, or perhaps it was because Gu Qiaoqiao understood the situation well, she was able to notice it immediately.
Gu Qiaoqiao believed this operation was bound to succeed.
At that moment, the image in her mind was still vivid; Lin Fanpeng had gone nowhere and was still lingering in that room.
About ten minutes later, a sudden gunshot shattered the night's silence.
Some people froze, looking around in panic, while others paid no mind, thinking it was some naughty kid setting off firecrackers.
Even though the New Year had passed, it wasn't the second day of February yet.
According to Chinese New Year customs, there was still a round of firecrackers to set off, so at this time, kids playing with firecrackers would not be uncommon.
However, the downtown area had banned fireworks this year, so why would kids break the rules to set off firecrackers? Truly unruly children, in dire need of discipline.
After the gunshot, silence fell again.
People on the street quickly forgot about the sound.
Gu Qiaoqiao sat somewhat tensely in the jeep, eyes fixed unblinkingly on the entrance.
Meanwhile, Lin Fanpeng was leisurely sipping his herbal tea on a Red Sandalwood chair in the restaurant, never anticipating the suddenness of the upcoming surprise.
He was caught off guard.
Even this old fox, accustomed to planning ahead, was suddenly thrown into disarray.
When the officers burst through the door, he was stunned, and at that split second, the glass facing south and north shattered...
Like divine soldiers descending from heaven, the combined forces of guards and officers flew in through the windows, quickly surrounding the place.
This top floor used to have four households, but Lin Fanpeng had bought them all.
Originally, two of them were his properties, and two were purchased at a high price for easier management, with all the rooms connected. He had two assistants and five mercenaries here.
They rarely ventured out.
They responded swiftly at that moment, but despite that, they were caught off guard.
Furthermore, they were facing a joint operation of military and police forces, led by a team that criminals feared by the mere mention of its captain.
And another team, the Leopard Unit, which struck terror into both domestic and foreign drug lords and mercenaries.
Under the leadership of these two, all of them were unsurprisingly captured.
Regarding Lin Fanpeng, Qin Yize had long since anticipated.
He knew that as long as they captured Lin Fanpeng, they would definitely find guns and ammunition at his residence.
Because no matter how cunning and cautious the old fellow was, he would definitely have these life-saving items at his side.
Indeed, in this house exceeding four hundred square meters, a large stash of guns and ammunition was found. With both testimonials and physical evidence in hand, Lin Fanpeng seemed yet to comprehend...
He stared blankly at Qin Yize, moments later, let out a slight sigh.
His complexion was ashen, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
"Victory is king, defeat is thief,"—the principle he understood well.
And he knew, now that he was caught, there was no chance of surviving.
Because no one was more aware than him of what was stored in his house.
