Closer to Revealing My True Self-Chapter 795 - 506 Shake People_2

The young man was knocked out. Tied up with a rope.

Inside, Jia saw the telescope here, the destroyed phone, and something that looked like a remote control.

In a temporarily suspended building site without running water or electricity, there was actually someone hiding in this room, equipped with such gear. Claiming it was just a temporary stay, no one would believe that!

Beside, the noisy construction site.

Not only were passersby filming, but some of the construction workers were also using their cell phones to shoot footage of the scene.

And those who didn’t understand what was happening, went by the principle of gathering first, crowding together right away.

Except for those too busy to stop, others paused their work, discussing with voices high and low. The chat groups were even more active with pictures and texts, and private and group chats were buzzing.

Even if the site rules said not to talk about incidents immediately, it was always possible to have an internal discussion, right?

[So curious, what exactly happened?]

[Was it an accident? A construction operation incident?]

[Could someone have abandoned their post?]

Workers with a good view of the site were live broadcasting to their colleagues:

[That crane looks really expensive! It got scratched! [Image]]

[It also damaged the road surface, too dangerous. Thankfully, no one was killed.]

[It almost hit people inside the barriers too. A few folks downstairs were almost smashed and are still cursing.]

[How will we calculate the financial losses this time?]

[Curious about who’s in that car? They must be someone important.]

[Who did the tying? Who did the lifting? Who was in charge? Who supervised? Where’s the team leader? Why are they silent after the incident?]

[Did they all run away?]

[Why run? This kind of construction accident might not necessarily be their fault.]

[[Voice message] No, they didn’t run... Oh shit, damned hell! One ran away! The crane operator ran away!]

The other workers in the group: ?!!

What the hell, why run?

Could it actually be the crane operator’s fault?

The people in charge of command and coordination, as well as the team leaders, were notifying workers in all the large and small groups to be on the lookout, and even shared photos of the crane operator.

There’s usually little traffic here, and not many pedestrians, but supervising personnel had not been lax; they had been watching the lifting operation seriously. Who could have foreseen an accident!

Just about to investigate, they turned around, and holy moly! The driver was gone!

The supervisor was so angry that he threw his safety helmet and had to go back to pick it up and put it on again. He saw someone from that car coming toward the site.

"This won’t be easy to handle!"

After giving orders and making a few phone calls, he steeled himself to negotiate with the approaching man in black, hoping the issue could be downplayed, although it seemed unlikely at this point.

Sigh!

The other personnel on the site didn’t have the same anxious thoughts as the supervisor. The older workers had seen many accidents on sites and were fairly calm.

The responsibility was not theirs; they were relatively relaxed, with the mood of spectators at a show.

"At least there were no fatalities. Let’s see if we can settle it privately."

"If it were an ordinary person, it would probably be easier to deal with, but the car that was almost hit below looks very expensive, and the owner doesn’t seem easy to mess with. They probably aren’t short on money. Besides, there might be some plot behind this!"

"It sounds like the crane operator made an operational error and ran because of a guilty conscience, but what if it was deliberate?"

Normally, they were very much in solidarity, but at a time like this, after assessing the situation, their minds started to ponder.

Some glanced down and saw A’que’s tall, robust figure, clad in black, his demeanor fierce and cool.

"Anyway, it’s not our responsibility; don’t get involved."

"This will probably be hard to settle privately. When accountability is sought, none of those above us will be able to escape."

"Does that mean our bonuses for this phase of the project are gone?"

"..."

Suddenly, the mood for watching the excitement was gone!

Below, A’que walked quickly toward the construction building, removing his sunglasses and putting them in his pocket.

Those eyes, seemingly devoid of warmth, swept over the workers who had crowded around.

It sent a chill down their spines, giving off an intimidating aura.

For a moment, no one dared to step forward to block him.

In the hesitation, A’que had already strode into the site.

Several supervisors wanted to stop A’que to discuss a few words first but were ignored by him.

He first went to the tower crane.

The tower crane operator had run off, but his scent lingered.

He did not possess as keen a sense for scents as Feng Yi, but it was stronger than that of an average person.

Without any hesitation, he followed the scent quickly, not wasting any time.

Inside the building, a worker with a safety helmet, his face smeared with dust, was unrecognizable. Taking advantage of the moment when everyone’s attention was diverted, he tried to leave the construction site through some unattended construction spots, blind spots in the field of vision, and darker corners.

The ground floor and the area on the construction site were under close watch, so he planned to leave through the annex building’s side.

That side was unfinished, and it was not possible to pass through directly. He had to go up another floor before leaping across.

He avoided the gazes of all the workers, navigating the area with skill, all the while remaining vigilant.

He had not noticed anyone following him, and it seemed there were no other sounds or suspicious movements nearby.

The window ahead was getting closer, and as it was yet to be fitted with glass, the large empty space already provided a view of a suitable landing spot on the annex building.

He picked up his pace and started to run, stepping at the window and leaping toward the annex building!

His body arced through the air...

No, only a part of the arc was completed before he was snatched away by a dark figure that suddenly emerged from the window on the wall’s other side!

Mid-air interception! ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Like a bird of prey sweeping over the water, its talons firmly clamping down on its quarry!

And like a snake lying in ambush, striking at the most opportune moment!

Quick as lightning, full of power.

It seemed as easy as taking something out of a pocket, effortlessly.

Some workers witnessed this scene, their eyes wide with astonishment.

Brutal and graceful.

It was indeed absurd to use the word "graceful" for someone who seemed like a beast, but that moment felt just as absurd!

It was unbelievable!

As other workers gathered, this strongly built man in black held a worker, whose condition was unknown, in one hand, and walked out of the annex building.

Throughout the process, they did not hear a sound from the worker—no screams, no moans, nothing!

Having lost his safety helmet, it was only then that everyone realized that the caught man was the escaped tower crane operator.

A’que held the man and walked directly out of the construction site until he reached the car where Feng Yi was.

The person in charge of the site wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a few steps toward the car, intending to negotiate with the people inside.

The accident had already been reported to the police, and he hoped to have a preliminary discussion with the people in the car to determine their stance before the police arrived, so he could properly report to his superiors.

A few steps out, two more cars arrived and stopped next to the vehicle in front.

From one of the newly arrived cars, five burly men in black emerged. Although they weren’t as imposing as the man who had stormed the construction site earlier, they were still not to be trifled with.

Five others stepped out of the second car, dressed in suits and polished shoes—sophisticated and professional, exuding an air of humble caution mixed with ruthless resolve.

Both were the kind of people he disliked and did not wish to confront.

The muscle, the lawyers.

One for brawn, one for brains.

And then, the police cars that had just arrived.

Just perfect, all here.

The person in charge felt dizzy and his forehead was beaded with sweat.

With this turnout, the situation clearly wasn’t something that could be brushed aside.

And...

The person in charge’s gaze swept over the two people who had been caught.

There was a high probability this wasn’t an accident, but was orchestrated with deliberate intent!

As he continued to approach and looked into the car,

Feng Yi, wearing sunglasses, stood out as a person of recent high profile on the internet, recognizable despite the disguise.

The person in charge recognized Feng Yi and his heart sank even more. He also silently cursed the crane operator and his accomplices eight hundred times over!

Why the hell would you cause trouble on my construction site?!

I can’t handle this mess; I don’t have the clout—this requires the big bosses to be present!

He picked up the phone in a hurry: Boss, get here quick! It’s your turn!

Meanwhile, inside the car.

Feng Yi looked at the ten individuals who had just arrived and asked Jia, "Didn’t you say you only called two?"

Jia also paused, then replied, "On the phone, I told the butler two. This... um... indeed, only two have come."

Two vehicles, that’s also two.
