Godzilla kicked the door of Hans’s room and shouted for Hans. A flustered and exasperated Hans came out of his room and said, ”What’s up with all of you? I’m f*cking busy right now!”
”Harris from the Comanche Casino is here as well,” said Li Du. ”Lil’ Rick said that he’s gonna teach us a lesson. I want to know what they’re up to.”
Hans smiled bitterly. ”I wanna know too. But we can’t read their minds, so how can we know?”
Li Du beckoned and Ah Meow showed himself, fully equipped.
Hans immediately understood. ”Agent Meow! You’re going to have Ah Meow spy on them?”
Li Du snapped his fingers and said, ”Correct.”
They needed Hans’s connections to find out the room number of the Ricks. Therefore, they needed to get him out of the room.
Hans made a phone call. ”They’re just next to our hotel, room number 0211,” said Hans. ”Follow me.”
The hotels around the town were practically motels; they looked simple and a little dilapidated. Air conditioners were hanging from outside the windows. If the room windows were open, one could see right into them.
As it was already dark now, the four of them snuck around and found the window of room 0211. He gestured for Ah Meow to climb up to the room.
They were lucky that the window of room 0211 was open. Agent Meow slipped in without any obstacle.
The view from the camera was clear on the tablet. Nobody was inside the room.
Li Du had already briefed Ah Meow on what to do. When he went inside, he crept and stayed under the sofa, concealing himself nicely.
Big Quinn felt amazed and exclaimed in wonder, ”Boss, why is Ah Meow so intelligent?”
Hans yawned and said, ”Yeah, Ah Meow’s really intelligent. Your boss is a strange man, and everything around him is strange.”
Li Du didn’t want to talk about this and diverted the topic. ”Frank’s here. Did you know about this?”
”Yeah I know,” Hans nodded. ”York’s here too. They got themselves something good yesterday. I guess they’re here to flaunt their achievement.”
”They found something good?” asked Li Du. ”What is it?”
Hans heaved a sigh of frustration. ”D*mn, I really didn’t want to talk about this. Since you asked, I can tell you. It’s a guaranteed minimum amount of 500,000 dollars worth of silver armor.”
Li Du was surprised. ”They found a silver mine?”
The price of silver was low, about 17 dollars for an ounce. An ounce of silver weighed around 30 grams. Something that could sell for 500,000 dollars required around 30,000 ounces of silver, which was close to one ton!
Hans shrugged. ”That’s all I know. It seems to be a complete set of precious silver armor, not just simple silver.”
”Okay then, I must admit they’re pretty good,” Li Du remarked casually. ”It’s such a pity that we missed this storage unit.”
There were a lot of valuable storage units in the United States; it was impossible to get each and every one of them.
Although it was a just a casual remark by Li Du, Hans took it seriously. ”God was not on our side for this one,” he said dejectedly. ”Looks like I haven’t been devout enough.”
Li Du rolled his eyes. ”Let’s not talk about God. Let’s talk about this auction tomorrow. Frank and York are here. The Ricks are here. We’re facing fierce competition this time.”
”Frank and York may not be here for the mahogany furniture,” said Hans. ”Wait, let me make a call to find out more.”
He made a few phone calls. After he hung up the phone, he frowned. ”You’re right. We are facing intense competition this time.”
”What’s wrong?”
