Gao Guang came to Dubai alone this time, because he was meeting Tom, not to snatch someone or to fight, but to discuss a business deal, a secret one at that.
Dubai was hot, the kind of heat that left you breathless; Gao Guang experienced nearly fifty degrees Celsius, coupled with humidity above ninety percent, recognizing the formidable power of such weather.
But the discomfort was brief because Dubai was not Baghdad; here, one could stay in air-conditioned comfort the whole time. As long as you had money, even the hottest weather wouldn't affect Gao Guang.
Gao Guang traveled light, not even bringing a suitcase. Aside from carrying three phones, he only had a wallet on him, but strangely, in Dubai, not carrying a gun didn't make him feel insecure.
He knocked on the door, which promptly opened. Tom peeked out and, seeing Gao Guang alone, stepped aside to let him in.
