In fact, Yu Yuan's guess was absolutely right.
The newspaper not only introduced Terence and his Spring Light Hotel, it also introduced his family, with particular focus on the brothers Loris and Fries.
Whether Terence paid the reporter or not, the space devoted to Loris and Fries was no less than his own. The article emphasized how promising they were, becoming official East District police officers in their twenties.
It went on at length.
After confirming Loris’s identity, Yu Yuan skimd the rest.
"The Spring Light Hotel is actually Loris and Fries' family property—no wonder..."
Since the Spring Light Hotel was a business built by their father, setting up a safe house there would be a piece of cake!
Once he realized that, Yu Yuan's heart suddenly sped up.
He had coveted Fries' safe house for a long ti. Now that he had a lead, how could he not go check it out? Besides, Thug Prison would be launching an attack on Loris tonight...
Yu Yuan checked the ti. It was already 6:30 a.m. He quickly organized his thoughts.
"District 6 borders District 1. The Thug Prison operatives sneaking over won't be that many, and they only attack at night. Now that it's daylight, even if they enter District 6, they'll definitely find a place to hide."
"Carn only discovered yesterday that Loris' target was the Spring Light Hotel. Thug Prison doesn't know that. They'll focus their ambush efforts on Film Avenue."
The virtual map had already been deployed. On District 6, Film Avenue and the Spring Light Hotel were highlighted by Yu Yuan, flashing red.
Seeing the marked points on the map, a gleam of determination lit Yu Yuan's eyes. He still had a chance!
Film Avenue runs from west to east through District 1, cutting across the entire sixth district into District 7.
The Financial Center Tower sits on Film Avenue, while the Spring Light Hotel is on Helen Comrcial Street.
Helen Comrcial Street intersects Film Avenue to the north and leads straight into District 5 to the south.
The Spring Light Hotel sits mid-block on the comrcial street, less than a kiloter from Film Avenue.
But right now it's dayti. Rushing over to scout would be extrely risky!
Yu Yuan turned to another newspaper, hoping to find information related to tonight's attack.
The first item was still the masthead weather forecast: rain tonight, light rain turning moderate around eleven, lasting about three hours.
Yu Yuan guessed the masthead might beco a fixed intelligence source for the Greenwood City Daily in the future, and he was naturally pleased about that.
The second item reported a scavenger murdered in District 10; the victim’s throat had been slit and their body posed in a kneeling, contrite posture.
Yu Yuan felt his eye twitch. This killer was ruthless!
The remaining two reports were particularly interesting.

At 4 a.m. today, the first group of the Burning Fortress' Fla Knights secretly entered Greenwood City. So hid in the northern city while others covertly entered District 6, where they rendezvoused with Thug Prison mbers at Dawn Bar to plan the operation against Loris tonight.
According to informants, the assault will include five slave suicide squad mbers, two Burning Fortress burning knights, more than twenty raiders, and five Fla Knights.
Thug Prison and the Burning Fortress are determined to succeed in this operation.
Their initial plan is to carry out a precise vehicle-bombing attack on Loris on Film Avenue...
------------------------------
Yu Yuan hadn't expected the Burning Fortress to be involved tonight as well.
He was curious about the burning knights — what were they?
A new unit type?
"If that's the case, then tonight is the best chance to scout the Spring Light Hotel."
Yu Yuan narrowed his eyes and considered the situation.
With Thug Prison and the Burning Fortress both preparing an ambush for Loris, there was bound to be a lot of commotion.
If they managed to kill Loris, they'd imdiately flee.
If they failed to kill him or if the Black Shield Police Departnt arrived quickly, Loris wouldn't choose to enter the Spring Light Hotel tonight, to avoid drawing more attention to the place.
"Looks like I should head to District 6 early today!"
6:00 p.m., inside the shelter.
Yu Yuan closed the Sniper Training Notes in his hands and rubbed his eyes.
He looked up at the shelter's roof, where the upgraded and optimized Ventilation Level 3 — Geothermal Ventilation Ductwork had been completed, and felt satisfied.
He had woken at 2:00 p.m., by then the Level 3 ductwork he built in the morning had already finished upgrading, and he had imdiately begun optimizing it.
Two hours earlier, with the geothermal ventilation ductwork optimization completed, he could distinctly feel the shelter's temperature dropping rapidly. It was no longer stuffy; it felt unusually fresh.
He could even sense a faint airflow moving through the air.

Quality: Rare
Function: Safety Rating 5, Comfort Rating 3, Indoor-outdoor air exchange speed 40%; indoor constant temperature 10°C–25°C (outdoor temperature -20°C–40°C); when indoor air is expelled, all odors are removed.
"No wonder it's a rare-tier facility."
And this was only the base version of the geothermal ventilation ductwork. Later, Yu Yuan could install low-speed fans, humidity controllers, and other devices to add auxiliary effects.
That would bring a revolutionary change to the shelter's ventilation.
"Too bad I still didn't comprehend any skills, but so sniping techniques can be directly applied in regular combat."
Yu Yuan returned the Sniper Training Notes and the Low-Altitude Parachuting Operation Guide to the magazine display stand.
Since waking this afternoon, he had been reading these two books. Although the chance of comprehending a skill was low, he figured mastering so practical techniques was better than knowing nothing.
And he had indeed learned so knowledge from reading.
He decided to read these two books more whenever he had ti, hoping to comprehend a skill soon.
After checking the ti, Yu Yuan began gearing up, his eyes flashing with eagerness.
"It's ti to head to District 6..."
