Chapter 72
Alex got home and as planned his motorcycle was ready, and a maid carrying a briefcase and a bag was waiting for him .
"Did you inform my dad about the current situation?" Alex took the bag, and started to change his clothes in front of the maid without shame . He was still inside the premise of the mansion so no one but the maid could see him .
Alex had no shame as he removed his clothes, and put on the new ones prepared for him . The maid in question didn"t have any reaction to it as well . She simply answered Alex"s question while he was changing .
"Yes I have informed the Master about the current situation . He has given the young master the green light to use extreme lethal force . He also said if the young master wants, he can treat this like a rescue mission, plus an annihilation mission . "
Alex was done changing and had double checked the equipment he was going to use . Before putting on his helmet Alex spoke, in a deep serious tone . "Roger that . " After Alex said his acknowledgement he put on his helmet and darted off into the distance using his personal customized motorcycle .
. . .
In Carlo"s room he was looking at his window, seeing Alex dash off in his bike, Carlo sighed . "It seems like getting you to have a normal life is getting harder and harder . . . Still seeing you move without me giving you an order, and to actually worry about someone else, you surely are maturing . . . Still those people that kidnapped Evangeline Kain . . . Obviously someone is using them as p.a.w.ns, making use of minor gangs, and having a few elites placed here and there . I wonder if this is related to that guy who claims, Berdonia is the greatest . . . "
Carlo started to think that the events that where happening was related to the incident awhile back . He didn"t like the feeling he was getting, so he started to contact some of the more veteran mercs in his old unit .
. . .
Eva woke up in a dimly lit room, she didn"t panic like a normal person would, instead the first thing she did was sigh . She then proceeded to check if she was able to move . It seems like the kidnappers didn"t bother restraining her movements . Well it was not like she could do anything in her current situation even if she didn"t have restraints .
Eva then proceeded to inspect the room she placed in . It was little room, with a barred window, a locked metal door, a dimly lit light and one chair . Aside from that there was nothing else in the room, it was actually unusually clean . Eva started to check if there was a way to bypa.s.s the barred window, but as she expected with only the few things in the room, there was no possible way to escape .
Eva then sat on the chair which was the only furniture in the room . She breathed deeply and exhaled, "once again I"ve been kidnapped . "
"I wonder what those guys want with me? It doesn"t seem like their the normal sort of thugs any of the rival companies will send to hara.s.s the family . This could also be a plot by Uncle, wanting to force my father to relinquish his position as patriarch . . . No that can"t be it, my uncle isn"t smart nor ruthless enough to hire someone to kidnap the baby of my driver, and threaten him . Hmm still that move does give rise to the question of security for the families of our employees . "
Eva started thinking of ways to improve the security for the families of their employees . Since Eva didn"t know what the kidnappers want, nor can she escape, she decided it was more meaningful to think of future steps once she gets out .
Eva wasn"t scared that she wouldn"t be able to leave, since if the kidnappers wanted to kill her, they would"ve done so by now . But since they kept her alive, that must mean that they need something from her .
Eva has been trained by her family to deal with this kinds of situations, so no matter what Eva faced she wouldn"t panic . The only time Eva ever panicked in a kidnapping situation was back then, when she first met Alex . The kidnappers back then where a terrorist group, and they didn"t want anything from Eva, they simply used her as a human s.h.i.+eld . Since they didn"t want anything, Eva and her family was unable to negotiate with them . That situation was the first time Eva had seen people who didn"t do things with logic at mind, they simply where doing things based on their feelings .
In her family most of the people moved based on logic, it didn"t matter if they were part of the same family, to them everything was simply business . The only ones who truly cared about Eva were her father, mother, and her older cousin . Aside from those people everyone else was simply wearing facades .
Eva then started to reminisce on how she first met, Alex . Actually the situation she was in, seem kinda similar .
"I wonder if Alex noticed that I"m missing? . . . Heh, obviously he wouldn"t notice . To Alex the only thing important to him is Rachel"s safety . I"m nothing more than a person that he can easily forget . . . Still it would be great, if Alex storms in and rescues me, just like that one time . . . Who am I kidding, in truth . . . I guess that would be impossible . "
Eva silently lamented that her first love, was in no way interested in her . Little did she know, that Alex who she thought couldn"t be bother by her, was now actually racing towards her area now .
. . .
Alex finally reached the shoe factory, and was now at a neighboring building, observing the place using binoculars .
The images shown in the camera in his leather suite was being relayed to the surveillance team .
"So tell me, what do you know about this shoe factory?" Alex asked the maid in charge of communicating with him .
"The shoe factory is a simple cover up, and with access to all the information given by Mr . Luke, we now know that the factory is used for genetic experimentation . "
"Genetic experimentation? What would this guys want with Eva?"
"So are there any civilians inside the factory?"
"There are none, young master . Everyone inside is either a mercenary, an a.s.sa.s.sin, or part of the local gangs . "
"That"s all I need to know, send me the layout of the building . I want to know every nook and cranny, of that building . "
"Affirmative young master . "
While Alex was waiting for the maids to send him the layout of the building, Alex started to hype himself up, like he used too back in the battlefield . Back then he did a certain ritual, before he started any dangerous mission .
"The mission objective is to rescue Evangeline Kain . I need to infiltrate the enemy building without being spotted, once the target has been acquired I can proceed to phase 2 . Annihilate all enemy forces . "
He confirms the mission objectives, and tries to visualize himself doing it . This was one of the ways Alex used to do, to make him even more focused .
Right now the kidnappers are blissfully unaware of the danger that is coming . Today these kidnappers will learn why Alex had gained the moniker "Silent Flash . "
