Volume 10 – Chapter 29: Stray Fishes To Be Caught (Part 1)
Munic.i.p.al Theater, side street, modified vehicle command center.
“Minister, the trojan has successfully entered the concert hall. We’re checking the number, ident.i.ty, and hidden location of the thugs.” The technician quickly reported.
Naturally, the minister couldn’t be idle either. It had now become a race against time. They had to rescue the hostages before the thugs went into a frenzy and harmed the hostages.
Not to mention that the hostages were either rich or influential; even if the hostages were ordinary people, it would bring great turmoil to the government. It would be like the terrorist attack that happened in the greatest country more than ten years ago. But to divert domestic public opinion, they even launched wars against other countries.
But they couldn’t help it! Roger was a felon in this country. His name had always been on the wanted list!
However, if a government compromised with these thugs, it was undoubtedly a disaster for the current government! Their fading political credibility would drop much more significantly!
“I hope this Trojan horse can help us resolve this crisis…” The Minister of Security rubbed his forehead.
Among the four prisoners sent in, they persuaded one of them to mix in as a spy and cooperate with the rescue operation of the police.
Would that guy be obedient and choose to cooperate with the government?
Hope so…
The Minister sighed and cast his eyes on the screen in front of the podium again, watching the situation in the concert hall.
…
Bucky thought that his judgment was flawless.
Although he and Batu had only two people on their side with opponents encompa.s.sing six people, Batu was fully armed, and he had at least a dagger in his hand.
What about the opponent?
Two women in evening gowns, a lousy old man, and the other three men were defenseless! This was simply how it felt when the proficient jungler (typically in MOBA games) met a rookie!
So Bucky was confident with his judgment!
But how could this happen?
Why was Batu’s weapon already in the opponent’s hand? Why was he pressed to the ground by this woman in a red evening gown?
I’m the Legendary Villain!
“Bucky Barton Balkas, I recognize you.”
Song Haoran looked at this opponent with interest at this time, “‘The former senior cadre of Capital’s Military Command Center. You’re rumored to be incapable but have great luck. You’re the lucky mascot. You usually complete the mission out of sheer luck without knowing what you did. But in fact, some people say that you are an unfathomable man. Is that true?”
Bucky opened his mouth and glanced at Batu suddenly. At this moment, he found that Batu had been knocked down on the ground, apparently in a coma.
“You… Who are you?”
At this point, Lluvia had let go of Bucky but took a pistol from O’Neill’s and pressed it behind Bucky’s back. He had to raise his hands, indicating that he didn’t intend to resist.
“In this situation, of course, we are your enemies.” Song Haoran smiled slightly, “In addition, I’m more baffled that aren’t you supposed to be in prison? When did you escape from prison?”
Song Haoran was baffled that when he used ‘Sun G.o.d Emblem’ not long ago, he didn’t detect Bucky at all. Did new changes happen recently?
Song Haoran couldn’t activate the ‘Sun G.o.d Emblem’s’ perception skill all the time. It seemed that there was still a shortcoming in this gift.
“I didn’t escape from prison…”
Bucky swallowed his saliva. He found that he would often encounter events of having a gun pointed at his back. So, he knew very well what he would need to do if he wanted to protect his life. He had to cooperate with them as much as possible.
But…
How can these guys take down Batu and me empty-handed? This is not real.
“Oh? Is that one of Roger’s conditions to the government?” Song Haoran nodded, keenly capturing a trace of Roger’s thoughts, “Who else besides you?”
Bucky had no choice but to report to what he knew directly. He was surprised by Song Haoran’s keen intuition. Is this guy using a game cheat?
Song Haoran muttered in his heart. As the mercenary group active in the dark world of South America, ‘Iris’ has done a lot of business. Starting from father, the Iris leader, it has been a long journey. In the past, ‘Iris’ has cooperated with ‘Capital’s Military Command Center before.
These guys that Roger got out of prison this time are all influential.
Although they were arrested and imprisoned, they secretly controlled a lot of a.s.sets. Although ‘UPP’ has suppressed many slums, it does not mean that the previous forces of this country have disappeared so quickly.
They just hibernate, waiting for the day they return.
Song Haoran suddenly said at this time, “It will be a disaster to let you flee. This is undoubtedly a misstep for our government. To satisfy the public, please die here! Afterward, we can utilize the rhetoric ‘accidentally killed during a fight with the criminal.’”
Bucky suddenly broke into a cold sweat. He naturally killed many people, so he knew very well the look in the eyes of the murderer. Unfortunately, the opponent had this type of gaze!
So, why did you let me out?
Isn’t it better to stay in jail?
There is excellent food, great entertainment, and female prison guards to have fun with. When I have the time, I get to play Texas Hold’em with the warden. Also, I don’t have to worry about the enemy’s a.s.sa.s.sination! Apart from being unable to leave the prison, it is no different from a vacation!
Wait, wait!
What did he just say… Our government? Is he government personnel?
“Wait! Don’t kill me!” Bucky said hurriedly, “Don’t do it yet! I came in with a special mission this time! I… I… I am…”
“You are?” Song Haoran narrowed his eyes and then chuckled lightly, “You want to say that you have an agreement with the government to get in here and get a grasp of the situation here. Then, you would cooperate with the forces outside.”
“How do you know?” Bucky was taken aback, looking at Song Haoran in amazement. How could this guy figure out what’s in my mind?
Song Haoran narrowed his eyes imperceptibly and suddenly said, “Ah Qiang, monitor this guy, don’t let him escape.”
