Chapter 169: Be Spider-Man For Once

The bodyguards quickly charged into the other two cars and started chasing their boss’s car.

Chen Zhao looked at the person beside him, “Where do I go now?”

“Wait here.”

Indeed, in less than three minutes, the car that carried Phillip Quinn returned and it had already lost the bodyguards’ cars.

Chen Zhao could not help but admire the importance of professionalism.

The kidnap looked just like a movie scene. All the routes and timings had been planned perfectly.

“I don’t understand why you didn’t do this on Fickley Street directly.”

“The road on Fickley Street is wider. Even if we created an accident to block the road, it would soon be cleared. Also, there are cameras along that road which would capture everything, but no cameras on this road,” the person beside Chen Zhao replied.

“Then why did you burst that fire hydrant? I can’t figure out its purpose.”

“To obstruct the driver’s view. In order for our people to replace the driver, we would need to get close to the car. Phillip’s driver is a professional bodyguard too. If we went near the car under normal circumstances, we would have certainly drawn his attention. Therefore, we must block his view before we could appear before the car unnoticed and then replace him.”

The person beside Chen Zhao paused and patted his shoulder. “You can enter the car now. Phillip is in there.”

Chen Zhao boarded the car. In the car, there was an unconscious old man, but it was not Phillip Quinn!

Chen Zhao’s expression changed. “Why is he not Phillip?”

The driver turned his head and asked in puzzlement, “He’s not Phillip?”

“No.” Chen Zhao shook his head.

“It’s a trap. He’s a substitute.” The driver’s face also darkened. “Let’s go. He must have a tracker on his body. Don’t stay in the car.”

The driver left the car with Chen Zhao and then glanced at him. “I’m Captain Lloyd Werde.”

“In my plan, I didn’t even think about whether there might be a substitute. Phillip has no record of using a substitute before, so it’s our mistake. According to our agreement, we only take half the price. Even if you want to continue with this mission, we will still only charge you half the original price.”

“No need.” Chen Zhao shook his head, feeling rather stressed. “I’ll transfer you the money. We won’t owe each other anything.”

Captain Lloyd Werde glanced at Chen Zhao, looking as if he wanted to say something. In the end, however, he still remained silent

Chen Zhao turned around and walked away. He could feel a fire burning intensely in his body.

Just then, Lloyd caught up with him again. “Do you plan to act alone? You won’t succeed. Gaia has told me that you’re a very strong individual, but Phillip’s bodyguards are professional too. This time, it was a secret plot, but now, he will definitely be more alert. If you act harshly, I’m afraid you’ll almost surely face a terrible death.”

“Can I ask you something?”

“What?”

“Can you get CL Building’s security information?”

“You want to intrude into CL Building directly?”

“If you can give me the security information, I’ll appreciate it a lot. At least I’ll feel that I didn’t waste my money.”

“I’ve studied CL Building before. Phillip owns the top three floors. He lives on the 129th floor, his bodyguards live on the 130th floor, while the 128th floor is their activity area. It’s completely impossible to sneak into his level from the main gate. You need an access card to enter CL Building in the first place. If you attempt to take the elevator to the 128th floor, there’ll be manual identification. Once they mark you as an intruder, the 129th floor will be entirely sealed off.”

“What if I enter from the sky?”

“You mean helicopter or parachuting? That’s basically impossible as well. Although there’s a helipad on the rooftop, there’s also 24-hour security.”

“So it’s almost impossible to intrude into CL Building?”

“The reality isn’t a movie. The various miracles in movies are nearly impossible to achieve in reality,” Lloyd said. “CL Building has a perfect security system. You won’t be able to enter it successfully unless you destroy the building with strong firepower or you find Spider-Man and ask him to climb up the outer walls.”

“Climb up the outer walls?”

“Don’t even think about it. CL Building has 130 floors. Nobody can climb 129 floors.”

“What tools do I need to climb CL Building?” Chen Zhao asked.

“Are you mad? I said it’s impossible. Nobody can be that strong.”

“Do you have the tools?”

“Are you serious?” Lloyd gazed at Chen Zhao.

“Do I look like I’m joking with you?” Chen Zhao said with a straight face.

“Do you have rock climbing experience?”

“No.”

“How about building climbing experience?”

“No.”

“…” Lloyd felt that Chen Zhao was merely looking for a way to kill himself.

Lloyd stared at Chen Zhao. “Is your hatred towards Phillip really so intense?”

“I need to make up for my mistake.”

“What did you do wrong?”

“I gave him health. It’s time for me to take it back.”

As a mercenary, Lloyd obviously knew about Phillip’s various crimes.

After some silence, Lloyd offered, “I can give you a set of Spider-Man gear, and also provide you with some help as an individual.”

…

8pm at night.

Lloyd sat in an official car, looking at CL Building with an infrared telescope.

Then, he took out his walkie-talkie. “Try the four suction cups now and see if they’re working.”

“Yes. Everything’s normal.”

“I can’t see you yet. Try to climb twenty meters up,” Lloyd instructed.

Very soon, Chen Zhao climbed twenty meters up the south wall of CL Building with the help of the suction cups. Wearing a tight Spider-Man outfit, he was literally cosplaying Spider-Man.

To be honest, when Chen Zhao looked down from twenty meters high, he already felt pretty dizzy.

Climbing up the outer wall was scarier than he had imagined. Just then, he heard Lloyd from his headset, “How do you feel? You can still give up now.”

“I’ll continue,” Chen Zhao said, trying to control his fear.

“Then from now on, I’ll try to speak with you as little as possible. You won’t have to spend too much energy talking.”

“No, continue to speak with me. It can distract me from my fear,” Chen Zhao said.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes,” Chen Zhao confirmed.

“Tell me what happened between you and Phillip.”

“Actually, I’ve only met him once…”

Lloyd quietly listened to Chen Zhao’s story. To be honest, he had the same feeling as Chen Zhao. This kind of scumbag should have died in jail.

From a moral perspective, Chen Zhao was not wrong when he healed Phillip. Therefore, Lloyd could also understand why Chen Zhao wanted to kill Phillip so badly.

“Tell me your current position.”

“My indicator shows I’m 135 meters above the ground.”

“Do you think you can still continue?”

“Yes. I’m actually no longer afraid of heights now.”

“Can you tell me your breathing rate?”

“38 times per minute.”
