Chapter 378 Don’t Move Yet
Su Ming did not rush to catch up, but first went around to the other side of the warehouse to observe the surrounding terrain. He found that the warehouse had only one main entrance and no obvious back door, but most of the windows were dilapidated, so it was easy to enter.
This kind of place is obviously not an ordinary cargo storage point...the things hidden inside must be extraordinary.
He quickly climbed onto a low windowsill and carefully climbed in. He lowered his body as much as possible, hiding behind the abandoned shelves, and observed the situation inside the warehouse through the gap.
A few dim lights lit the warehouse, and several sealed metal boxes lay on the floor. A man in black stood over one of the boxes, seemingly inspecting its contents. He pulled out a cell phone and dialed a number. "The shipment has been confirmed. You can come pick it up."
Su Ming's brow furrowed slightly, his eyes fixed on the boxes of goods. His intuition told him that these things might be closely related to Lin Feng's plan.
Suddenly, a car sounded outside the warehouse. Su Ming quickly hid, his eyes sharpening. He knew this drama had just begun, and he had to find the most crucial breakthrough point.
The warehouse door was pushed open, and several men filed in. Their eyes fell on the boxes of goods. One of them walked forward and asked coldly, "Have you checked the items?"
"We've checked everything, everything is normal." The man in black nodded in response.
"Very good, then let's carry out the plan." After the leading man finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced around, his eyes revealing a hint of sharpness.
Su Ming's breathing became lighter, and cold sweat trickled down his forehead. Alarm bells rang in his heart, knowing that if he wasn't careful at this moment, he would be exposed to these dangerous people.
What should I do next? Continue to observe, or... take action? Su Ming's mind quickly weighed the pros and cons, his thoughts flashing like lightning.
Just as he was hesitating, the leading man suddenly raised his hand and waved: "Check the surroundings to make sure there are no outsiders."
**Oh no!** Su Ming cried out inwardly, and quickly retreated, trying to find a safer hiding place, but the layout of the warehouse severely limited his movements.
As footsteps approached, his hand slowly reached for the gun at his waist, his gaze cold and focused. A silent standoff filled the air, the danger hanging like a taut string, ready to snap at any moment.
Su Ming's fingers tightened around the gun, their knuckles turning slightly white. His gaze fixed intently on the approaching man in black, his mind racing with multiple options. He knew he was like a cheetah crouching in the shadows, every muscle tense, waiting for the right moment.
The black-clad figure's footsteps grew clearer as he edged closer to the shelf where Su Ming was hiding. Su Ming could feel his heartbeat pounding against his chest, like a steady and powerful metronome. He slowly adjusted his breathing, trying to remain calm. He couldn't panic. At this moment, losing his composure would ruin all his efforts.
"There seems to be no one here," the man in black whispered, but his words showed no sign of relaxation. His flashlight swept across every corner, the beam like a cold tentacle, quickly passing over Su Ming's position.
Just as the beam was about to reach him, Su Ming slid swiftly and silently behind another shelf. As he completed the action, his heart relaxed a little, but his eyes grew fiercer. He had always been confident in his ability to conceal himself, and this time was no exception.
"Make sure it's safe here. Come and help move the boxes." Another voice of a man in black came, obviously giving the order to end the search.
"Understood." The man in black who was searching stopped searching and turned to walk towards the goods.
Su Ming poked his head out from the shadows and surveyed the situation. He quickly determined that the contents of these boxes were extremely important, possibly even directly related to Lin Feng's plans. He absolutely could not miss out on such valuable intelligence.
**But how can I get the contents of these boxes without alerting the enemy?** Su Ming pondered in his heart. He knew that he couldn't expose himself rashly, and he couldn't act rashly. There were so many people here, and if he made a mistake, the consequences would be unbearable.
At this moment, a slight noise suddenly came from the other end of the warehouse. All the men in black subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
"Who is it?" the leading man asked in a low voice, his weapon already clenched. His eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to pierce the darkness.
Su Ming's brows twitched slightly. He wasn't sure where the sound came from, but he realized this was a perfect opportunity. Taking advantage of the moment when the man in black was distracted, he quietly moved to a more advantageous position.
Using the shelves as cover, he locked his sights on the metal boxes. He quickly scanned the locks and discovered they used high-end electronic locks, impenetrable by brute force. It seemed his only option was to wait until they were opened and find an opportunity.
At this moment, the main door of the warehouse was pushed open again, and a slender figure slowly walked in. Su Ming's eyes narrowed for a moment, and then his heart sank suddenly - it was Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's appearance complicated Su Ming's thoughts. He knew that Lin Feng was the central figure in this plan, and all clues would eventually lead to him. However, Lin Feng's vigilance and dangerousness were also well known. The slightest carelessness could lead to fatal consequences.
"What's going on?" Lin Feng's voice was low and majestic. His eyes swept over everyone, and his tone was unquestionable.
"There seemed to be someone there just now." The leading man reported quickly, but was obviously not sure about the situation.
"Continue checking." Lin Feng waved his hand, signaling everyone to remain vigilant. He then walked towards the metal boxes, glanced at them coldly, and then turned to the leading man and said, "Once you've confirmed everything is correct, move on immediately. Don't waste time here."
"Yes." The leading man nodded and then gave his men an order, "Speed up."
As Su Ming watched them begin to move, a sense of urgency surged within him. He knew he had to act before the crate was moved, or the mission would become even more difficult. His hand unconsciously reached for the communicator at his waist and quickly sent a code message.
A few seconds later, a deep voice came from the headset: "Need support?"
Su Ming frowned slightly and replied in a low voice: "Don't move yet, I will observe for a while."
The support team was clearly ready, but Su Ming preferred to solve the problem alone. An overly high-profile action might alert the enemy and even ruin the mission. His goal was always to gather intelligence, not to create chaos.
