Chapter 732: Chapter 328: Business Negotiations

While speaking, Gu Ji didn’t forget to gesture with his hands to indicate the vehicle’s shapes and positions.

"If the crisis cannot be resolved quickly, proceed with the VIP transfer. Car No. 3, you need to move to the side of Car No. 2 with a single vehicle’s space between you. At this point, Li Yanan, your Team 2 must at all costs, transfer the leader and protected personnel safely and swiftly. Then, with Car No. 3, make a quick escape. Gao Bo and I will distract and divert the threat. Understand?"

Li Yanan nodded.

Only then did everyone understand why Gu Ji chose three cars.

It turns out they were for emergencies.

After all, once they are carrying VIPs, their combat strategy would fundamentally change.

They couldn’t possibly bring a forty-something leader to face pipe-wielding bikers or firework attacks like they did in the morning, and charge through with fearless bravado.

Not to mention the leader’s safety issues, but simply because of Sun Zhengxian’s high blood pressure. If he were to have an episode, the next few days’ commercial negotiations might not continue, and this arms trade would be finished.

That would definitely count as a mission failure.

At that moment, Gao Bo finally understood why Gu Ji said VIP protection missions are extremely challenging.

Because it’s like fighting with shackles, the presence of a VIP consistently limits your performance and causes concern.

"I will soon designate the specific action route based on information provided by Xv Guangpeng. What you need to pay attention to is making sure to stay with the convoy. Do not let other vehicles cut you off. I will also ask Gao Bo to slow down appropriately. Okay, meeting adjourned!"

After discussing the action plan, Gu Ji led everyone back into the suite.

After lunch, Sun Zhengxian had his room swapped with his subordinates as per the arrangement, while Director Pang Yuan stayed next door.

At 2 PM, Secretary Wu Bin finally found the third vehicle, a black assault vehicle that could accommodate 9 people.

Gu Ji took Gao Bo to inspect the vehicle in the hotel parking lot, mainly to ensure there were no mechanical issues and nothing had been tampered with.

During the inspection of the chassis,

he suddenly remembered the police dog beside Yasen and instinctively thought of the Sting left far away back home.

To be honest, after just experiencing the Pakistan earthquake checkpoint, Gu Ji had become accustomed to operating with a canine partner.

With a police dog by your side, it easily detects if the vehicle has explosives or other dangerous substances, saving time and potentially saving lives in critical moments.

Gu Ji clapped his hand, wondering how he forgot to bring the dog along originally.

So he quickly took out his phone.

Calculating the time difference, it was around midnight back home, a difference of 11 hours between the two countries. Thus, he left a WeChat message for Zhang Wenjun, asking him to help arrange the shipment of the Sting.

Unbelievably,

just after sending the message, Zhang Wenjun called, mainly to check if something went wrong on their end.

After explaining with difficulty, Gao Bo couldn’t help but grin at the side, "You, why do you provoke Zhang Zhong for no reason? Is the Sting so important?"

"Extremely important, you’ll understand when the Sting arrives!"

"Tsk! So mysterious."

...

Approaching the pre-arranged dinner time of 5:30 PM,

Gu Ji first took two bulletproof vests for the two leaders to wear under their shirts.

Sun Zhengxian was fine since he was quite thin, but Pang Yuan, having come from the sales department with years of socializing and drinking, had a large beer belly and felt uncomfortable wearing it.

"Is this necessary? If they really have guns, won’t we still die without weapons to retaliate?"

"Director Pang, wearing it is better than not wearing it. Just follow the officer’s arrangements!"

Seeing Pang Yuan’s reluctance, Sun Zhengxian spoke to appease him.

Perhaps afraid of leaving a bad impression on the leader, Pang Yuan quickly changed his tone with a smile, "Mr. Sun, I didn’t mean anything. It’s just that wearing a bulletproof vest might make the shirt look too bulky, affecting the image of our Puli Group, haha!"

Gu Ji remained silent throughout.

Once the two dressed properly, they began escorting the four of them down the elevator.

"Please wait a moment."

Reaching the hotel’s back door, Gu Ji held back the four, letting Gao Bo, Li Yanan, and Zhou Yu get into the car first. After another round of inspections to ensure there were no issues, he signaled, "All clear, the two leaders please board Car No. 2!"

Inside the car, Gu Ji put on a tactical headset and tested the radio signal.

"All good, Gao Bo, let’s go!"

"Alright."

With the order, Gao Bo started the engine. Li Yanan and Zhou Yu followed one after another, and the three vehicles slowly drove out of the hotel, heading into the city’s central streets.

The CBD commercial district was the busiest at dusk.

But there was also a time limit issue; after dinner, the streets would quickly become deserted as people feared running into rioters or gangsters if they went home too late.

Fortunately, tonight’s dining location was near the government area, north of the city.

The route Gu Ji chose was based on the Brazilian Federal Police’s patrol distribution map acquired through Yasen, crafting a path with the most patrol vehicles.

Throughout, his eyes kept glancing out of the window.

Like two radar systems, constantly scanning the surrounding streets, vehicles, pedestrians, and various intersections.

Sitting in the back, Secretary Wu Bin saw this and seemed to want to ease the tense atmosphere, "Officer Gu, with so many Brazilian police on the streets, shouldn’t there be a problem?"

"Hard to say."

Without turning to face him, Gu Ji’s eyes lowered and he noticed a black SUV parked across the street, abruptly turning and heading their way, "Everyone, be alert! 11 o’clock, black SUV, suspicious route!"
