610 The Secret About the Past 228 (1/2)
The problem was, how was she going to enter?
The route she adopted previously was definitely a no-go.
She could not alarm anyone else before she made her way in. Otherwise, should she get caught, she would probably lose her life before she could even find out the truth she wanted to know.
Since she had already decided to sneak in at night, she made all the necessary preparations.
An Xiaoning did not choose to climb the wall because she had already observed the circumstances.
For every ten steps she took, there would be a guard on duty, leaving her with no chance at all.
Thus, she chose an unexpected path.
The trees around the mansion would be her greatest tool.
An Xiaoning climbed up a tall tree and latched her rope onto a thick branch.
She was rather agile and nimble since she did not weigh much, making it easier for her to move about.
It was an extremely dangerous act to leap from one tree to another using the rope, especially at night. However, it was a far safer option compared to trying to make it past the bunch of guards on duty below the trees.
Courage and bravery were indeed necessary to carry out such a dangerous act.
The guards below the tree merely thought that the trees were swaying in the wind. It had never occurred to them that a woman would have such audacity to commit something so dangerous.
By the time An Xiaoning reached the roof of the third floor, her legs had already turned to jelly.
She retracted her rope and sat on the ground, panting heavily in exhaustion.
She had already expected there to be guards at the stairwell of the third floor.
An Xiaoning was dressed in black from head to toe; her head was wrapped with a black cloth, and she was wearing a black-colored surgical mask and a pair of shades.
She retrieved a pencil-thin steel wire from her waist in an unhurried manner. The moment she cut the power circuit to switch off all the lights, she swiftly looped the wire around the guard's neck in godlike speed.
He was killed instantly.
She dragged him onto the rooftop and took away the gun attached to him.
An Xiaoning headed to the master control on the second floor and whipped out a small bottle of fuel she had prepared beforehand. She then poured the fuel onto the plastic box of the master switch and set it on fire with a lighter, causing the box to go up in flames instantly.
The entire area became pitch dark all of a sudden.
She removed her shades and put on the night vision goggles before zooming toward the first floor while holding her shoes in hand.
An Xiaoning swiftly ducked below the stairwell when she caught sight of a bunch of bodyguards rushing up the stairs with handheld lamps.
After waiting for them to go upstairs, she quickly took the chance to zoom toward another corner, only to see Shi Xiaoyu exiting her room with bodyguards.
It was a godsend opportunity for her.
It had always been her agenda to enter Shi Xiaoyu's bedroom again.
She finally had the chance to do so again after a great deal of painstaking effort.
She opened the closet and began fumbling about in an attempt to find the switch from which the ringing sound came about.
However, she heard footsteps approaching the room again before she had even managed to find it.
An Xiaoning again hurried to hide.
Being inside the room was already advantageous for her.
Once Shi Xiaoyu falls asleep, An Xiaoning can then begin to hypnotize her and find out everything she wanted.
Unfortunately, Shi Xiaoyu clearly did not have any intentions to sleep.
Instead, she was leaning against the headboard of the bed while holding her mobile phone in hand.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
”Come in.”
