31st January, 3 pm.
Ye Feng was alone, pretending to be a drug smuggler as he walked along the streets of Kappa Town.
His mission was to familiarize himself with the terrain of Kappa Town and observe Wang Jianxiao's movements.
Shi Lei's plan was to kidnap Wang Jianxiao and lure the drug lord, Sand King Gao Boyang, out of his lair.
The prerequisite for this plan to succeed was to capture Wang Jianxiao and successfully leave Kappa Town.
It was not easy to leave Kappa Town. Kappa Town was Sand King Gao Boyang's lair. In Kappa Town, he could pull out hundreds of Gao Boyang's henchmen at any time.
Ye Feng walked into a shop. The shop did not have a name, but in an inconspicuous place at the entrance, there was a small tuft of something that looked like withered grass hanging there.
However, it was definitely not withered grass. It was the dried stalk of a ripe poppy flower after it was harvested.
The stalk of a poppy flower hanging at the entrance indicated that this shop sold poppy flower products. In other words, it sold drugs.
In the Yellow Triangle area, there were many such shops hidden.
Not only did one need to know the hidden signs at the entrance, but one also needed to know where to go to buy the drugs they needed.
Inside the shop, a middle-aged man in his forties was sitting on a recliner, half-asleep. A TV show was playing on the television.
Although the middle-aged man saw Ye Feng walk in, he did not seem to want to greet him. In fact, he only glanced at Ye Feng and did not look at him again.
On the shelves around the shop, there were some small handicrafts with corresponding prices.
Of course, these were all disguises. If one did not know the trade, they would really think that they had walked into a handicrafts shop.
Ye Feng coughed softly and said, "Boss, the things you have here are a little cheap!" As he spoke, Ye Feng pointed at the handicrafts around him.
The middle-aged man in his forties replied listlessly, "I am not a profiteer. Of course, the price is cheap."
"Boss, I want to buy something more expensive. I wonder if you have any?" Ye Feng said, cutting to the chase.
Ye Feng had once participated in an anti-drug operation, so he knew a little about the language used by drug dealers.
The first thing he said was that the handicrafts around the shop were cheap, and the second thing he said was that he wanted something more expensive. He was testing the shop owner to see if there were any drugs for sale.
Under normal circumstances, if there was stock, the boss would introduce it.
However, the middle-aged man in his forties was still uninterested. He said, "Little brother, you don't look familiar. Is this your first time in Kappa Town?"
Ye Feng wasn't nervous. He said calmly, "Yes, that's right.
They came from the neighboring Deken Town.
He wasn't satisfied with the price over there, so he came over to take a look.
I just don't know if Kappa Town has any good stuff. "
The middle-aged man finally showed some interest. He got up from the recliner and took out a list of prices that looked like a menu. He handed it to Ye Feng and said, "Look at it yourself!"
After Ye Feng saw the price, he immediately frowned. "Boss, you're not being honest!
Is there a discount? "
"No!" The middle-aged man shook his head firmly.
Ye Feng didn't say anything else. He turned around and left.
The middle-aged man didn't stop him. Instead, he smiled at Ye Feng's back and said, "Little brother, my price is definitely the cheapest in Kappa Town.
If you don't believe me, you can go out and look around.
If you can't find anything cheaper, you're welcome to come back. "
Ye Feng ignored him. He turned around and walked out of the shop. Then, he continued to pretend to be an ordinary drug dealer and haggled over the price.
In fact, Ye Feng was using this behavior to determine the location of the shops that sold drugs in Kappa Town. From there, he could deduce where Gao Boyang's henchmen might be hiding.
At the same time, he also quickly memorized the traffic situation in Kappa Town.
By six o 'clock in the evening, Ye Feng had basically figured out the situation in Kappa Town.
Kappa Town wasn't big to begin with. In addition, Ye Feng had a lot of experience and a good memory. It only took him three hours to figure out the situation.
In order to make his identity stand up to scrutiny, Ye Feng returned to the first shop.
In the shop, the middle-aged man looked at Ye Feng with a smile. Obviously, he still remembered Ye Feng.
Kappa Town only had Sand King Gao Boyang's faction. An unfamiliar face like Ye Feng couldn't help but attract attention.
In just three hours, Ye Feng went to all the drug outlets in Kappa Town. He knew that he had attracted the attention of Sand King Gao Boyang's faction. If he didn't act normal, something unfriendly might happen.
Ye Feng looked at the middle-aged shop owner and snorted softly. "Boss, don't tell me all the sales channels in Kappa Town are in cahoots with each other?
I heard that Kappa Town seems to be very united. "
Sand King Gao Boyang controlled Kappa Town. Although this news wasn't public, it wasn't something that everyone knew either.
Ye Feng acted as if he didn't know that Sand King Gao Boyang controlled Kappa Town.
The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head. "Little brother, what do you think?"
Ye Feng pretended to be a hoodlum and said, "Give me a 20% discount on your offer.
If the price is higher, I'd rather go to another place. "
The price Ye Feng offered was just a little lower than the price of drugs in Deken Town. It was a relatively normal market price.
If he didn't ask and directly bought the other party's drugs at a high price, there would be problems!
The middle-aged man's eyes revealed a hint of satisfaction, as if he had acknowledged Ye Feng's identity. He nodded and said, "Little brother, I can agree to your price.
But how much are you going to buy? "
Although the middle-aged man had acknowledged Ye Feng, he immediately set up another trap to test Ye Feng.
If one didn't have any real ability to survive in the Yellow Triangle, it would be easy for Interpol to get rid of them.
Sand King Gao Boyang wouldn't easily go against Interpol either.
Ye Feng naturally knew the other party's test. He sneered in his heart and then snorted softly. "Boss, you're not thinking of taking advantage of me, are you?
Take out 10 grams of each of your goods. I need to bring them back for inspection.
If the quality of your goods meets our requirements, I'll bring my brothers over tomorrow and we'll trade again. We'll exchange the money and the goods at the same time. "
Ye Feng's cautious answer was completely in line with the steps of a drug smuggling transaction for the first time.
Drug smuggling was a very dangerous business. Whether it was the buyer or the seller, there was always the possibility of being taken advantage of.
When the middle-aged man heard Shi Lei's answer, he wasn't angry. Instead, he laughed a few times and addressed him in a more intimate manner. "Little brother, don't worry. Our shop has been operating in Kappa Town for more than ten years. We're definitely a reputable shop.
As for the goods you need to inspect, we have a total of five kinds of goods in our shop. I'll give you 10 grams of each. You can inspect them however you want. "
Ye Feng nodded and took out a stack of hundred-dollar bills from his pocket and placed them on the counter.
Although the middle-aged man didn't mention the cost of the sample goods, Ye Feng knew that this was still a test.
In the drug smuggling business, there was no such thing as a free sample for inspection.
The kind of test where you could casually dip your finger and lick it to taste the purity was definitely a scam from movies.
How could you casually try drugs?
Wouldn't that mean you wanted to get high on the spot?
Especially in movies and TV series, the police actually used the method of tasting drugs. This was definitely a huge scam.
To truly test the purity of drugs, you would need to do a chemical experiment to be able to detect it.
Ye Feng's request for samples for inspection was very much in line with the requirements of the first transaction.
Moreover, he had paid for the samples, which showed that he was very knowledgeable.
"Boss, is that enough money?
If you don't mind, can you give me an isolation box? "Ye Feng said very professionally.
The so-called isolation box was a wooden box specially made in the Yellow Triangle area. It could isolate the smell of drugs and prevent detection dogs from smelling it.
Of course, the isolation box wasn't effective for a long time. It was usually only effective for about a day.
In other words, the effect was quite obvious within twenty-four hours from the time the drugs were put in.
The middle-aged man nodded and took out a black wooden box.
The wooden box exuded a faint fragrance. It was unknown what it was, but it was this smell that offset the smell of drugs and prevented detection dogs from smelling it.
"Little brother, I hope we have a chance to cooperate." The middle-aged man stretched out his hand.
Ye Feng didn't stretch out his hand. This was the last test. There was no handshake in cooperation between drug dealers.
In normal business dealings, handshakes were out of courtesy.
But in a drug deal, handshakes represented close contact and a sign of danger.
Ye Feng picked up the isolation box and said coldly, "Boss, your goods are good and the price is cheap. Naturally, there is a possibility of cooperation.
I'll go back and test it first. When the results are out, we'll talk about it in detail tomorrow! "
Seeing that Ye Feng didn't stretch out his hand, the middle-aged man finally relaxed.
Ordinary Interpol officers, even if they understood the rules at the beginning, would usually stretch out their hand subconsciously at the last stage.
After all, they weren't real drug dealers. It was easy for the police to reveal flaws.
"Little brother, don't worry. There is absolutely no problem with our goods," the middle-aged man said confidently.
Ye Feng took the isolation box and left hurriedly, rushing back to Deken Town.
Back in Deken Town, Ye Feng passed the drug samples to Zheng San Pao.
Zheng San Pao was an explosives expert who could make plastic bombs by himself. He was quite proficient in chemistry. He took the drugs that Ye Feng brought back and started to test them.
As the saying went, if you wanted to put on a show, you had to do it to the end. The details determined success or failure.
Tomorrow, they would pretend to be drug dealers and go to Kapa Town to do the deal. It was best to test today's samples to prevent any accidents from happening tomorrow.
Ye Feng reported the situation to Shi Lei. "Boss, this is the basic situation."
Shi Lei wore a wireless headset and communicated with Ye Feng through the encrypted voice channel set up by Izur.
"Very good!
Ye Feng, everything is going according to plan.
This time, we can only succeed. Failure is not an option! "
Ye Feng hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Boss, Sand King Gao Boyang's influence is really strong.
This operation is too rushed. Our success rate isn't high! "
