Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

"An Xiaohai, where are you now?" Xu Congzhou's voice came from the phone. This time, his tone was very special, cold and devoid of any emotion.

"I'm in the city, in Baoshan District."

"Could you please visit the tea plantation?"

"When?"

"Now."

"No, I need at least two more hours. There's one last thing I need to confirm about this operation."

"Come to the tea shop at 3 p.m., we'll be waiting for you here."

"OK."

An Xiaohai hung up the phone. Judging from Xu Congzhou's tone, he was probably not the only one waiting for him at the tea house. He probably had something to announce before taking action.

A figure flashed ahead, and An Xiaohai looked up to see Xie Dan walking out of a building, nodding slightly in his direction as if unconsciously.

This building is the headquarters of Huben Security Escort Company in Baoshan District. The layout and structure of Huben Security Escort Company in Daxiali are almost identical to those of Shuitian Building in Shuitian Village.

The underground parking garage also has two levels. Tiger Security Escort Company has a separate, enclosed area on the second basement level. If you look closely from there, you can see security personnel with shotguns behind the entrance doors.

The building also has a public vault, but it's not on the basement level of the underground parking garage; it's on the second floor of the building's podium.

After understanding Xie Dan's hint, An Xiaohai took a deep breath, crossed the road, and entered a nearby building. Pan Zhuangzhuang and Kunji, seeing An Xiaohai begin to act, also entered a nearby building.

About half an hour later, the three of them left the building separately, wandered around the neighborhood for a while, and finally met up in a small alley in a nearby urban village.

"Did you find it?" An Xiaohai asked in a low voice.

"Found it, it's in the building I went to, in the southeast corner of the basement. I've already changed the map," Pan Zhuangzhuang replied softly.

"Okay, now that we've confirmed two companies, let's head to Fuhai District to finalize things there too," An Xiaohai said, nodding slightly.

"Big brother, why don't you not go? Just leave it to me and Zhuangzhuang," Kunji said with some concern. An Xiaohai looked a bit unwell, with both of his eyes red.

"No, this matter is very important. I must go and confirm it myself. Otherwise, if something goes wrong during the operation, it will be a huge problem. If these things go wrong, we won't be able to continue."

"Okay, let's go quickly then, I'll go get the car!" Kunji ran off to get the car, which he had gotten from Yan Hong.

"Boss!"

As soon as An Xiaohai stepped out of the alley, Wang Bulai, along with Ali and Xie Dan, surrounded him.

"Are you all ready?"

"Don't worry, boss, we're all ready."

"Do you know how to use the communicator?"

"I've got it, but boss, could you give me a different code name? My current code name is just... just too girly!" Wang Bulai was almost in tears.

An Xiaohai gave him a code name, "The Crying Concubine," saying it suited him perfectly. Wang Bulai was racking his brains trying to figure out what was so special about the code name.

"We can't change it, we'll use this one. Ah Lai, the code name should be as different from your personality as possible, so that people won't be able to figure out who you are. Otherwise, what's the point of having a code name? We might as well just call you by your name."

"I know, but..."

"No buts, it's settled! Gillian, come here!"

An Xiaohai shouted at a few people not far away. Xu Tianyou rolled his eyes and staggered over.

"The men are in your hands now. You need to train them quickly, teach them how to deal with the Sea Hawks' men, and how to use guns, with them taking the lead in using guns," An Xiaohai pointed at Xie Dan.

Xu Tianyou tossed his hair, then hooked his arm around An Xiaohai's neck and pulled him aside: "Hey Hai-ge, I want to change my code name too."

"No, just call me Ah Jiao. Stop arguing. It's for your own good."

"Could you tell me what your codename is?"

My code name is Wind.

Hey!

"Let's switch."

"Okay, then you take charge."

"Never mind then, Gillian is fine, I... sigh, whatever!" Xu Tianyou sighed, looking up at the sky. "But where did you get this communication device? It's so high-tech!"

"It was Master Xu who did it."

"This guy really went all out. After this job is done, can you get me one of these too? I think this is pretty awesome."

"It's probably going to be difficult, and I'm worried they might have a backup plan. We'll see what happens then."

"Okay, to be honest, why make it so complicated? We're just doing a robbery, and we're even using code names. It's like a police operation."

"That's right, the police were involved."

"Seriously? You can even handle the police?"

"What's so strange about that? I'm an undercover cop, taking care of the police is a piece of cake for me."

"Hehehehe...hahaha!" Xu Tianyou laughed so hard he could barely stand up straight. If An Xiaohai hadn't been holding him back, he probably would have collapsed to the ground.

"Hey guys, what are you chatting about that's making you so happy?" Ah Kun asked curiously as he walked over.

"Hahaha, Brother Hai, Brother Hai says he's an undercover agent, hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha..." Ah Kun laughed along with him.

An Xiaohai laughed too, laughing so hard that tears almost came out.

"Alright, alright, enough joking around. These code names you've come up with are a bit complicated. What was Pan Zhuangzhuang's real name again?"

"Sarl".

"What about Kun Kee?"

"hooligan."

"Wait, wait, wait, I'm a little confused!"

"Don't worry about it!" An Xiaohai grabbed Xu Tianyou's shoulder. "You don't need to care about other people's code names. You just need to remember that your name is Ajiao."

Once the operation begins, even if you hear my instructions to others, ignore them and just focus on yourself, understand?

"Understood!" Xu Tianyou took a deep breath and nodded.

An Xiaohai also breathed a sigh of relief and whispered in Xu Tianyou's ear, "The police really cooperated in this operation. I bribed them. When they chase you, if they don't shoot, you should try not to shoot either."

"What if they open fire?"

"Distinguish whether they're faking it or really fighting. If they're faking it, you should also fake it."

"What if they actually do it?"

An Xiaohai straightened up and smiled slightly at Xu Tianyou: "Then don't suffer any losses!"

"Got it!" Xu Tianyou laughed, patting An Xiaohai's arm heavily. "You better watch out!"

"It's more dangerous over here, so you'd better watch your step!"

"Then let's all be careful! Don't worry, I'll take care of them," Xu Tianyou shrugged and turned to leave, hooking his arm around Wang Bulai's neck while waving to An Xiaohai.

An Xiaohai smiled slightly, watching them disappear around the corner of the alley before turning around and getting into the car that Kunji had driven. Kunji stepped on the gas, and the car sped off towards Fuhai District.

An hour and a half later, the car drove from Fuhai District to Luotian District and finally stopped outside Xu Congzhou's tea shop.

An Xiaohai got out of the car, nodded slightly to Kunji, and Kunji drove away.

Upon entering the tea shop, the receptionist didn't say anything, but gestured for An Xiaohai to enter before turning around and leading the way. An Xiaohai quickly followed.

The receptionist didn't lead An Xiaohai to the tea room from last time. She led him through the entire building, through a small door into another building, and after wandering around in an extremely complicated corridor for a while, she finally pushed open a door and gestured for him to enter again.

An Xiaohai raised an eyebrow, turned around and stepped into the doorway. The scene behind the door surprised him.
