Summer sunlight spilled over the rippling canal, making the water shimmer with golden light. A speedboat suddenly shot down the waterway with a whoosh, kicking up trails of white spray.
Yu Hai turned slightly and looked back, his gaze fixed on the speedboat growing farther away. Leaning close to A Long's ear, he lowered his voice. "A Long, keep an eye on those two women who just passed by."
"Those two aren't simple. They're famous female thieves in the underworld, ranked first on the thieves' list." Yu Hai spoke sternly as he continued, "They have all kinds of advanced high-tech surveillance equipment. They're ruthless, vicious, and utterly without moral limits..."
