"And that’s four," Haji muttered under his breath as he knocked another guy out. For the past few minutes, he felt a tad bit nervous since he felt like he was running a military operation all by himself. And there was sothing about the eerie atmosphere of the house that sent chills up and down his spine. However, after knocking out the fourth guy he encountered as soon as he entered the place, he felt like he could do it.
Haji pocketed another taser he got from the fourth guy, and that makes three tasers at his disposal. He had no idea why he needed three tasers in the first place but for now, he was just hoarding as much as he could.
His instinctive movents made him as quiet as a mouse. And the people who were lingering inside the residence couldn’t even sense him. Of course, they’re bound to find out soon enough that Haji had escaped, but as long as no alerts were sounded, they wouldn’t.
The infiltration had a couple of hiccups here and there, but Haji managed to root himself inside the house and no one had seen him. At this rate, he’d be able to rescue gumi and more. Balancing a taser, he proceeded to hunt the next guy.
Right now, he was in so sort of a huge living room with plenty of hiding spaces behind the circle of couches in the middle. However, there were a lot of corridors that branched out of this particular room, making it harder for Haji to watch his six at all tis.
Without wasting any second, he proceeded to walk into one of the corridors as quickly as he could while holding the taser in front of him. He was holding it with both hands as if wielding a sword— albeit unnecessary, it gave him reassurance since he was holding so sort of weapon.
Upon reaching the corridor, Haji ca face to face with two guards who were casually walking around. Haji flinched, almost dropping the taser in his hand, but he was able to maintain his composure. In one swift motion, Haji crouched impulsively after seeing the guard reach for his gun (for so reason, this particular guard had a gun with him). He then pressed the taser on his thigh.
At the sa ti, Haji reached into his pockets and grabbed a taser. For a mont, he thought that he’d fumble but fortunately, his left hand didn’t betray him. With another taser in hand, Haji made a stabbing motion, aiming for the second guard’s neck.
Their dance of electrocution was certainly amusing, but Haji didn’t have the luxury to watch them suffer. After knocking the two of them, he started running deeper into the house. He knew that it was only a matter of ti before other guards found them.
The reason why he didn’t bother hiding their bodies was that there was nowhere to hide them. Adding to that, it would only be a waste of ti if he were to drag the two of them to the living room. The long corridor is also an open space. If another guard found him, he’d surely be held at gunpoint and there would be no escape for him. This thought process occurred in Haji’s mind as soon as he t the two guards. That’s why he was able to move without hesitation after knocking both of them.
Haji sprinted until he reached a corner, and then he proceeded to head blindly down another corridor. He figured that if he were to go in every corridor, he’d be able to locate where gumi was in no ti. All this ti, though, he started muttering a silent prayer, hoping that the mastermind wouldn’t find him before he gets to gumi.
That’s where he was mistaken though.
At the very mont he entered the premises, the mastermind himself was already notified of his presence. Haji was too focused on his enemies that he didn’t even notice the hidden caras littered around the place. But then again, it would be hard to see them since they were tucked in corners, and their size is incomparably small compared to other regular CCTV caras.
But why were the guards unaware of his presence? That was because the n monitoring the caras decided not to raise an alarm. Or rather, they were ordered by Ricardo Basilio himself.
...
anwhile,
"Then... if my dad gives you the money, are you going to let go of us?" gumi asked. She knew that criminals who can go as far as to kidnap soone has a few loose screws in the head. Even without asking the obvious, she was well aware that the man in front of her has no intention of letting her go, much less Haji.
A sinister smile appeared on Ricardo Basilio’s face. "Of course... why would I let you go? I can demand much more than money from your dad if that were to happen. Besides, you’re our one-way ticket out of here."
A guard slowly approached Ricardo Basilio, whispering sothing in his ear. Sohow, his smile got even wider. "Thanks, I’ll deal with him myself." He muttered before he stood up.
Jerking his thumb towards gumi, he ordered his n to watch over her, reminding them that he didn’t want any ’funny business’ happening. The n smiled as they nodded toward him. Obviously, they were planning to do sothing behind his back. It was already a given when he left her on their watch.
gumi’s pupils dilated as she watched Ricardo Basilio sauntering away. There was no way she’d call out to him, but that’d be a better option than being left with the guards who were lecherously looking at her.
Slam!
Before Ricardo could open the door in front of him, it suddenly slamd open, causing him to step back. On the other side of the door was Haji, who had carelessly revealed himself to the mastermind as well as the rest of his underlings.
"Shoot!" Haji almost let out a bad word in his mouth as he impulsively brought the taser on Ricardo’s hips. It was a clean hit, and Ricardo was brought to his knees as the electricity got the better of him.
Nevertheless, the surprise attack wasn’t enough to knock him unconscious. Before Haji could celebrate in his mind, Ricardo pulled out a knife and stabbed Haji with it.
