Trust yourself

Chapter 13

Li Chi went quickly to the street where his apartment is, called a restaurant, and ordered food for two, then gave the address of Mandolin's apartment. But ten minutes later, he called the restaurant again, telling them that he had left the apartment and was waiting on the corner to get his food, and then requested that they send the delivery person quickly and specify exactly where he would meet him. Li Chi paid for the food when he met the delivery man on the street and informed him that he was the one who had called, after which he asked the delivery person to lend him the uniform because he thinks that his girlfriend is cheating on him and he wants to catch her. He said that he would go now and check on her and return the clothes to him in a few minutes. Then Li Chi tempted the worker with a large amount of money, so the man agreed, took off his jacket, and gave him the thermal bag. Then Li Chi went to the building where Mandolin lives and gave the door guard the food receipt. The guard called Mandolin on the intercom. She replied and told him that she had not ordered anything. The guard informed Li Chi about this. But Li Chi insisted.

"Please make her ask her boyfriend first." "It might've been him who requested food."

The guard answered him after he ended the call with Mandolin.

"There is no man in this apartment; there is only a woman who lives alone."

Li Chi insisted,

"But the one who called us was a man, and he gave us this address." "Brother, please check again for me! The building is big. Maybe you got confused. If I go back to the restaurant and then he calls again and asks about his food, I'll be in trouble. Help me; I do not want to lose my job. "

The guard called out to two people who came out of an adjacent room and told them the number of Mandolin's apartment, then asked them:

"Is there a man in this apartment?" "Does the foreign woman have a boyfriend who lives with her?"

One man replied,

"No, she lives alone."

The guard commented,

"Do you believe me now?"

Li Chi noticed that one of the two men was the man he saw in Mandolin's apartment, so he kept looking at him, and the man spoke after the guard explained the situation to him. So the man said,

"Brother, make sure there is no man at this address." "I was there myself yesterday to investigate the water leakage problem, and there was no man there, neither a visitor nor a resident. We register visitors, and no one enters without registering, and this apartment has never registered a visitor. "I am sure that the address you have is wrong."

Li Chi thanked the guards and left. Then he went to the delivery person, gave him back the jacket and the thermal bag, took the food, and returned home happily. He sat down to eat with an appetite, and afterwards he slept with peace of mind.

In the morning, he got an email telling him that there was a job for him. Then the client sent him information about the target, a photo, and some money as a deposit for seriousness. They also inquired as to how much he wished to be paid to complete the job. and informed him that they were awaiting his response.

Li Chi went to see the target and followed him for a while. He was a man in his forties who seemed to be a visitor to the city because he lives in a hotel and frequents nightclubs and public places. After Li Chi knew everything he wanted about the man, he determined the appropriate place to carry out the mission.

Li Chi returned to his apartment and sat down to watch the camera recording as usual. When he was reviewing the camera footage of Mandolin's window, he paused the recording when she appeared in front of it and continued to look at Mandolin's image on the screen, then sent his reply to the client, telling him that he would be unable to carry out this job because he was busy now and returning the money to him, and then he refused the next message that was attempting to persuade him to execute it. After that, he went to sleep, saying "I will stop for a while and try something new".
