"You're right. Young Hero Lin has thought it through thoroughly," Tor Rijue said with a nod. "Very well, Young Hero Lin, I'll await your signal. If you run into danger, we'll charge in at once!"
"Then I thank you, Old Clan Chief Tor!" Wei Zhao nodded.
"What kind of talk is that? It's only what I ought to do!" Tor Rijue shook his head with a smile.
"Mm. Then I'll make my preparations," Wei Zhao said with satisfaction.
"Mr. Lin, shall I come with you?" Yu Dake asked.
"Not for now. Wait for my signal; I'll be in touch with you all," Wei Zhao said, making a gesture of holding a phone.
"Very well, Mr. Lin. Do be careful," Tor Rijue said. Though he had no idea how Wei Zhao intended to investigate, he could hardly press him further—asking too much would make it seem as though he meant to tip off Lou Qitian. In truth, he had no such intention; he was simply concerned for Wei Zhao.
After dining with the Poli clan that evening, Wei Zhao asked for directions to the poison-refining base and set out alone.
The poison-refining base lay deep within the boundless desert. Without exact coordinates, it would truly be hard to find; relying on satellite positioning, Wei Zhao located it quickly.
It was a place resembling a prison: towering walls, grim iron gates, and no markers or buildings around it. Even viewed from a distance, one might have taken it for a mirage.
Wei Zhao parked the car behind a small sand dune some distance away, recorded the coordinates, and only then got out. He put on the Thousand-Silk Mask and walked toward the grim poison-refining base.
Wei Zhao appeared at the gate of the poison-refining base with utter brazenness. He reached out and pounded on the iron gate—clang, clang, clang...
In fact, even had Wei Zhao not knocked, the people inside had already seen his arrival at the gate through their surveillance.
Two burly men in denim jackets soon appeared inside the iron gate. They were clearly baffled by Wei Zhao's sudden appearance—what in the world was this fellow up to?
"I hear this is an illegal poison-refining base?" Wei Zhao said, slapping the iron gate carelessly.
"Who are you? Where did you come from? What's your business here?" The two men were wary of Wei Zhao's questions and neither confirmed nor denied them.
"Where I come from is none of your concern. People call me the Great Bandit. I've come here to make myself a bit of money," Wei Zhao said with a cold sneer, kicking at the iron gate in a stance of arrogant ease.
"The Great Bandit?" The two men were taken aback for a moment before it dawned on them! So this fellow had heard from somewhere that there was a poison-refining base here and had come to shake them down!
