Chapter 2749: Chapter 2750: Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun
“The way they’re coming out so brazenly, could it be a trap? Even if they were leaving, it should have been at dawn.”
The speaker was a Black man, muscular and with a weathered face.
His na was Zachary, forrly a mber of the Ghost Squad.
During a previous mission in Japan, he was also part of the team responsible for capturing Lin Yi.
Now, with Morici dead at Lin Yi’s hands, he’s been promoted to captain, leading the remaining 14 mbers to continue the fight.
“Share your thoughts.”
Campbell, with a cigarette in hand, confidently sat in his chair, looking at Zachary and said.
“Back when we were in Japan, we crossed paths, and I have so understanding of this person nad Lin Yi. He’s very smart and skilled, he wouldn’t show such a significant flaw,” Zachary said.
“We should be cautious, if another mistake happens, the people in Congress might lose it.”
“Haha…”
Campbell chuckled confidently, as if victory was within grasp: “What if he’s dead?”
“Dead?” Zachary was a bit surprised.
“On the day Gerard died, from the surveillance, we could see he was being taken to the embassy. And his state at the ti, as you saw, was completely unconscious.”
Flicking the ash off his cigarette, Campbell continued,
“You know the situation at the cri scene very well. Gerard’s Alaskan Whale Harpoon was covered in blood, and his DNA was found on it, so he at least got stabbed once.”
“Additionally, from the guns of the other two deceased, a bullet was missing. Coupled with the wound on his chest, it must have been a gunshot wound. In such a case, what do you think his chances of survival are?”
With Campbell putting it this way, Zachary fell into deep contemplation.
For people like them, their bodies are different from ordinary people.
If a knife is used and it doesn’t hit a vital spot, death is unlikely to occur easily.
But a gunshot wound to the chest is different.
Not just for him, even for A-level or S-Class, they wouldn’t fare well against firearms.
Especially since the injury is to the chest!
“It is possible.”
Zachary said,
“I know Gerard’s skills very well. Even if the opponent had help, it wouldn’t be easy for them. His chances of survival aren’t high.”
“So, what’s left is just a bunch of small fry. What good plan could they co up with?” Campbell said confidently,
“To think of such a plan is already quite impressive.”
Zachary nodded, saying: “I think they’ve already…”
The knocking sound interrupted Zachary’s words.
“Co in.”
The door was pushed open, and Campbell’s secretary walked in from outside.
“Mr. Campbell, the security team discovered that a body was just carried out from within the embassy!”
“A body!”
Hearing this word, both of them looked a bit surprised, then quickly regained their calm deanor.
“What was the situation at the ti?”
“The body was carried out by four people, very cautiously. It’s estimated that the dead person was soone important.”
Hearing the secretary’s words, the corner of Campbell’s mouth curled into a smile.
“It seems our speculation was correct, he’s truly dead. The reason he held on for so many days was probably due to rescue attempts. Now that the person is dead, they’re starting to evacuate.”
Zachary also visibly relaxed, sitting on the sofa, he said,
“But there’s one thing I can’t figure out, why would they choose to leave during the day? That doesn’t make sense.”
“The reason is simple, because they are innocent.”
Campbell said,
“Everything was done by Lin Yi alone, it has nothing to do with the others. We have no reason to capture them. I’m sure the Central Guards Brigade is well aware of this, so when they leave doesn’t matter to them.”
“If they think that way, they’re being too naive,” Zachary said.
Campbell squinted his eyes and said, “Tell our people to follow closely, don’t let any of them slip away.”
“What about the body? Should we investigate it?”
“If possible, go ahead. If they don’t cooperate and strongly oppose, then let it be.”
Campbell crossed his legs, completely at ease.
“Anyhow, the person is dead, intercepting them is aningless.”
“I understand.”
After responding, the female secretary left, while Zachary said,
“If Joker finds out about this, will he take retaliatory action?”
“This was all Gerard’s doing, it has nothing to do with us. If he really wants revenge, we can just give him Gerard’s body,”
Campbell said,
“The primary task now is to find the statue.”
“The statue situation is a bit complicated,” Zachary said,
“It’s hard to say where exactly it is, but it’s certain that it will eventually end up with the Central Guards Brigade.”
“So we can’t afford to be careless, we must capture all those people to use as bargaining chips.”
“But all these recent events were caused by the statue. If we do it again, would it create a bigger commotion?”
“No,” Campbell resolutely replied,
“The reason such a terrible thing happened is because of that fool Gerard. If he didn’t attack the Central Guards Brigade’s team, none of this would have happened.”
Lighting another cigarette casually, Campbell said,
“Once we capture them, we must treat the hostages well, and I’ll personally negotiate with Liang Xianghe. He definitely won’t refuse.”
“That’s indeed a good idea.”
“You should prepare as well, the more people we capture, the more bargaining chips we have, don’t give them any chance.”
“Understood!”
After saying this, Campbell stood up, took his coat, and walked out of the office, looking very satisfied.
…
anwhile, the more than ten vehicles were divided into four groups, heading in different directions.
Following all these vehicles, people were tailing them closely.
Even if the vehicles dispersed, the people trailing them could easily keep up.
For the people in the security bureau, this was not a difficult task.
“Did the higher-ups say when to take action?”
In one of the Buick cars, the person in the passenger seat asked.
His na was Wright, a team leader under the security bureau, and the commander for this mission.
“Mr. Zachary said there are too many people here, it’s easy to cause a violent conflict, so we’re to find a place with fewer people to act.”
Wright’s mouth curved into a smile, “These people are very special, in one-on-one fights we might not be their match, but as long as we have guns, even if a hundred of them co, I’m not scared.”
Stretching and loosening his joints, Wright said to the others in the car,
“Inform the other mbers of the team, prepare the equipnt, follow my orders, and be ready to act at any ti.”
“Yes!”
