The situation suddenly became complicated, and Gao Guang felt that his brain was not enough. He might be a little clever and come up with good ideas in emergencies, but when it comes to reasoning with rich experience and meticulous thinking, he feels inadequate.

In the end, it is easier to take action than to use your brain.

The four people in the office were at a loss and didn't know what to do.

To investigate or not, and how to investigate if they decide to do so.

"John, what do you think?"

John shrugged and said helplessly, "How would I know."

"But you noticed something unusual."

"That's because I was very excited and happy after killing someone I wanted to kill. When I told the employer that the task was completed, I wouldn't mention where the body was placed, let alone which hospital it was sent to. Even if I had to say it, it would only be after the employer asked. How could I say it voluntarily?"

That's the way it is, but without clarifying Ryan's life or death, they couldn't proceed to the next step. What if Ronnie and Ryan were working together?

Fishing can sometimes backfire, and they can't take it lightly.

"Well..."

Francisco spoke up, and the three of them looked at him.

Francisco seemed a little uneasy and whispered, "I don't know what to do, but usually in this kind of situation, um, we would send someone directly to the hospital to check."

Gao Guang was stunned and said, "Right, why do we have to ask someone else to check? Isn't it better to go to the hospital ourselves?"

John sneered and said, "You've never been to a hospital, have you? You rarely have anything to do with hospitals."

"Huh?"

"Patient and deceased information is private. Can you see it if you want to? Can you find it if you want to search for it?"

Looking at the three of them with disdain, John proudly said, "Based on my extensive hospital experience, it is impossible for you to go to Los Angeles Medical Center to check the information of a deceased person. First of all, you don't even know where the morgue is, let alone the fact that Ryan is unlikely to be directly sent to the morgue. What if he needs an autopsy? Where would the autopsy be conducted?"

Gao Guang felt that it was so difficult to verify whether a person was alive or dead.

Mike suddenly said, "Just ask Ronnie! Or find him directly and beat him half to death, force him to tell us what conspiracy he has, why did he tell us which hospital Ryan was sent to!"

Mike may be crazy, but he is not stupid. However, what he said didn't sound very clever. It's like seeking help from the enemy, or acting out of desperation.

Gao Guang disdainfully said, "You better think twice. Isn't it walking into a trap to meet Ronnie without understanding his intentions?"

To meet him is to be afraid of falling into a trap, not to meet him is to not understand Ronnie's intentions. Even if they don't need to go to the hospital, Linda should be able to get the news through normal channels. It's just a matter of time.

But now, feeling afraid and helpless, Gao Guang felt very uncomfortable.

Wait a minute, thinking of the words "tiger and wolf," Gao Guang suddenly remembered an idiom.

Driving away tigers and swallowing wolves, Ronnie has always done this. When he made demands to Gao Guang, the first condition was to have the forces behind Gao Guang help him deal with Ryan. Isn't this the strategy of driving away tigers and swallowing wolves?

However, Gao Guang had already clearly refused Ronnie and told him that it was impossible for the forces behind him to help Ronnie before Ryan died. But after refusing, can't Ronnie find a way to drive away tigers and swallow wolves again?

If Ronnie is still using the strategy of driving away tigers and swallowing wolves, then his actions are easy to understand.

Scenario one, Ronnie didn't kill Ryan at all, but worked with Ryan to fish. He told Gao Guang that Ryan was dead and sent to Los Angeles Medical Center. Whoever goes to the hospital to check the news will be on Gao Guang's side.

Ryan is an FBI agent, and with his resources, it is very simple for him to carry out this fishing plan. As John said, not everyone can go to the hospital to check patient or deceased information. Ronnie knows that the power behind Gao Guang comes from the Los Angeles Police Department. In this case, they are likely to deliberately use the hospital as a special place to fish.

Scenario two, Ronnie did want to kill Ryan, but failed. Then Ryan went to the hospital, so it is possible that Ryan's subordinates or colleagues are killing Ryan's killers all over the world. At this time, whoever goes to the hospital to check the news will naturally fall into Ryan's sight. If Ronnie has not been exposed yet, he can also take advantage of the situation and divert Ryan's suspicion to Gao Guang and the others.

This move is too vicious. Whether Gao Guang goes to the hospital to check or Linda goes to check, there will be some clues. At that time, Ronnie can naturally shift the focus, and even if he is eventually exposed, he can buy himself time and have a chance to escape.

Scenario three, Ronnie has already killed Ryan, but left some traces that were discovered by Ryan's accomplices, who are now looking for the killer's whereabouts. If Gao Guang and his group go to the hospital to check the news, it will fall into the eyes of Ryan's accomplices, and in the end, they will have to fight to the death with Ryan's accomplices.

Gao Guang felt that all three possibilities were highly likely, but in the end, it was still the strategy of driving away tigers and swallowing wolves. Whether Ryan was dead or alive, he would eventually step out from behind the scenes and take the bullet for Ronnie, sharing most of the pressure for him.

Gao Guang wanted to sit back and watch the tigers fight, wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman, but who knows if Ronnie had this plan.

"Damn! I understand!"

Gao Guang felt that he had found the problem, and he was very excited because he had doubted his intelligence just now, but now he felt that he was indeed very clever.

Taking out his phone, Gao Guang urgently said, "I figured out how Ronnie thinks. Now I have to tell Walton."John and the other two looked very anxious, but Gao Guang still called Walton first to confirm if it was convenient to talk. He told Walton everything he had in mind.

After hearing Gao Guang's words, Walton cautiously said, "I understand. Don't do anything now. We won't have any problems if we don't do anything. But if we act too hastily, we might get involved. So, wait. You don't need to worry about anything. I will inform you immediately if there is any news."

Wait, wait, and wait again. Gao Guang was annoyed by the word "wait" now, but there was no choice. Given the current situation, waiting was necessary.

It was already past 8 o'clock in the evening, and Gao Guang felt that if they continued to wait, they would probably have to wait until the next day for any news.

After conveying Walton's instructions to the other three, Gao Guang said seriously, "Don't go home tonight. We need to be prepared for any trouble. Prepare all the equipment, walkie-talkies, night vision goggles, and whatever else. Keep the rifles close at hand. If someone breaks in, don't hesitate. If you need to go out, Mike, Francisco, bring your handguns."

They were now fully prepared. The main concern was Ronnie's intentions, and they couldn't take it lightly. It was better to be alert than caught off guard.

Suddenly, John asked, "What if it's the FBI coming for us?"

"If it's the FBI, don't resist. We haven't done anything. Understand? We haven't done anything at all!"

Thinking about it, Gao Guang and the others really hadn't done anything to Ryan. That was the advantage of being a bystander throughout.

John nodded and got up to bring out all the equipment they would need. It was a night vision goggles, four walkie-talkies with headphones, and the remaining were rifles and bullets. As for the handguns, Gao Guang always kept one on him.

They were now fully prepared for battle. Gao Guang had wanted to call Ronnie, but he suppressed the thought, remembering Walton's instructions not to do anything.

But while Gao Guang could wait patiently, Ronnie could take the initiative to call.

When the dedicated phone suddenly rang, Gao Guang's heart skipped a beat and he said, "It's Ronnie calling!"

John was also nervous and whispered, "Answer it, listen to what he has to say."

Gao Guang took a deep breath, answered the call, and calmly said, "Hello, what's up?"

"Have you found out? I've been waiting for your call, but you never called me."

Ronnie's voice sounded impatient. Gao Guang sighed and then said, almost as if possessed, "Ronnie, I know what you're thinking, but have you ever thought about the consequences of being too clever?"

If Ronnie's voice hadn't sounded so urgent, Gao Guang might not have said that, but Ronnie sounded a bit annoyed, so there was a problem.

A ruthless person who could remain calm even when being strangled would not become impatient at a time like this if he had succeeded. Ronnie seemed puzzled, paused for a moment, and then said in a puzzled tone, "What am I thinking? I just want to resolve this matter as soon as possible. You asked me to wait for your news, but it's been a long time. Can't you confirm Ryan's death sooner?"

Gao Guang whispered, "Hospital. When you mentioned the hospital, Ronnie, you exposed your thoughts. I don't want to say anything unnecessary. Since you... um, there's nothing more to say. You continue to wait for the news."

It was better to say only half of the words, leaving the rest to Ronnie's imagination. The smarter a person was, the more they would think, and the more complicated their thoughts would become, scaring themselves.

This time, Ronnie remained silent for a long time, and then he finally said, "Okay, I admit it. I don't know if Ryan is already dead, and I don't know how the killer is doing now, but I can't go check now! I can't! If I show up, I'm dead! It's time for you guys to take action!"

Ronnie was anxious now, definitely anxious. But the situation he described didn't seem to match the previous three situations. That is, he had no idea about Ryan's life or death, so what should they do in this fourth situation?
