One day.
Two days.
Three days.
That afternoon.
Outside Bar Street, the car came to a stop.
Inside were Shen Xiaoyan, Shen Xiaomei, Dong Xuebin, and Zhang Longjuan. Today was the day they would board the ship, and all four had made thorough preparations.
"We're here," Shen Xiaomei said. "It's up ahead."
Zhang Longjuan looked at the sisters. "Your weapons?"
Shen Xiaoyan nodded. "We removed them all. We didn't bring anything, or we wouldn't get through their security check."
"Good." Zhang Longjuan turned to Dong Xuebin beside her. "Once we go in, it'll be too late to back out. Little Dong, you came all this way to protect me, and I'm very grateful. Honestly, I don't want you taking this risk either. This mission has nothing to do with you, and it carries a certain degree of danger." It was the same thing she had said before, and Zhang Longjuan repeated it again today. "Let me ask you one last time. Are you really going?"
Dong Xuebin smiled. "It's not that I want to go. I have to go."
"Then I won't say any more. Shall we go?"
"Yeah." Dong Xuebin looked at her. "Just don't get more than three hundred meters away from me."
Shen Xiaomei froze for a moment. "Why... three hundred meters?"
Dong Xuebin explained, "If anything happens within that range, I can handle it. Any farther away, and it'll be difficult."
Shen Xiaomei gave an awkward little sound. After a long silence, she finally managed, "Oh, I see."
If any other bodyguard heard Dong Xuebin say that, they would probably laugh at him for being an amateur—the purest kind of amateur. Three hundred meters? Forget that distance. Even thirty meters away from the person under protection, there would be no way to reach them in time
