Mercenary’s War Chapter 1609: 1588: Bear the Consequences

Chapter 1609: Chapter 1588: Bear the Consequences

After consulting with Murphy, Gao Yang didn’t adopt the thod of first hiring the clean-up crew and then having Murphy take over. That’s because Murphy said that when dealing with the clean-up crew, it’s best for both parties to remain honest with each other.

If you lie to the clean-up crew, you might lose the chance to work with them forever. So, Gao Yang honestly dialed the clean-up crew’s number and followed the procedure step by step.

After repeated contacts and negotiations, the clean-up crew and Gao Yang went through a process of affirming and denying various things, coupled with internal applications, consents, and rejections on their part, which took an entire day. But in the end, Gao Yang finally got Antonio’s phone number.

To get Antonio’s phone number, Gao Yang paid five million US dollars. That’s the cost he paid to hire soone through the clean-up crew. It might not even take five million to have them do sothing, but hiring soone through them starts at five million US dollars.

This situation arises because, like Number Thirteen, Antonio’s relationship with the clean-up crew is that of a collaborator, not a subordinate. So, if you want to invite Antonio to Kiev, the clean-up crew only provided the phone number. Gao Yang still had to persuade Antonio.

If Antonio agrees to Gao Yang’s terms and is willing to co to Kiev to open a safe, Gao Yang has to pay the clean-up crew five million US dollars. If Antonio refuses to co, then Gao Yang doesn’t have to pay.

Gao Yang would rather spend the money to get Antonio to co, no matter how much it costs.

Watching Gao Yang hang up the phone, Taylor asked nervously, “How was it?”

Gao Yang made an OK gesture and smiled, “It’s settled. Antonio is coming soon. He’s already on his way to the airport.”

Taylor sighed with relief and clapped his hands, “That’s great! How much did it cost to hire him?”

Gao Yang shrugged and smiled, “One million US dollars. Everything in the safe belongs to us, and if there’s cash, it’s his.”

Taylor said in amazent, “Why so cheap? One million US dollars! He’s willing to open a president’s safe for a million? Even if he takes the cash, how could there be cash in Poloneshenko’s safe!”

Number Thirteen said solemnly, “For a thief who enjoys cracking safes, being able to open a safe is enough; money is secondary. And you must understand, opening a major drug lord’s safe in xico is far more dangerous than opening a president’s safe in Ukraine.”

Gao Yang laughed, “That’s right, I think even if we didn’t pay Antonio, he’d still co. When he heard there were six of the world’s top safes waiting for him to open, Antonio was already thrilled, I could tell.”

Number Thirteen frowned, “Six safes? Isn’t it two? Only two are for the guns.”

Gao Yang embarrassingly lowered his head and said, “I said there were six safes. He needed to open two of them, but Antonio automatically thought he had to open all six. After I corrected him, Antonio only gave one condition, which is we must give him ti to open all six safes. That’s his condition for coming.”

Taylor thought for a mont and cautiously said, “That shouldn’t be too hard, right? I think although there are six safes, the passwords should be the sa. Opening one is like opening them all. All my bank cards have the sa password; having so many passwords is just asking for trouble. What if you forget?”

Number Thirteen frowned, “That’s you. For important people, luxury items are secondary. Those property proofs or confidential docunts are the most important. Such people almost never set all passwords the sa.”

Gao Yang laughed, “Whatever, we’ll first let Antonio open the gun safes. If he can’t open the rest, so be it. Also, Antonio is a very professional thief—no, a professional burglar. When it cos to stealing things, he’s very skilled. La Azaro is just trash in front of Antonio, not even worthy of carrying his shoes. We’ll just let Antonio handle the issues.”

Number Thirteen said solemnly, “What about hiring Kiev’s clean-up crew to erase traces? Did you succeed?”

Gao Yang shook his head in frustration, “No, the clean-up crew directly refused the business. They do have a crew in Kiev, but asking them to target soone who is about to beco Ukraine’s president, the crew in Kiev thinks the risk is too high, so they refused. You know, the clean-up crew won’t force their branches to do anything.”

Number Thirteen shrugged, “Alright, refusal is refusal. We’ll just be more careful and there’s no need to involve the crew. So, what shall we do next?”

Gao Yang laughed, “Little Donnie and Karima will arrive in Kiev soon, tonight in fact. We’re preparing to go to the airport to welco them.”

Number Thirteen imdiately frowned, looking a bit annoyed, “Karima is coming? Why is she coming back!”

Gao Yang shrugged, “You asked to call her. After seriously thinking it over, I agreed with your reasoning, so I called her. It is indeed a bit dangerous here, but if we are careful, it should be fine.”

Number Thirteen shouted angrily, “Why did you call her? You! I, never mind…”

Gao Yang chuckled lightly and cautiously asked, “Is there any difference now compared to before?”

Number Thirteen said with a grim face, “Now there’s Osa!”

Gao Yang spread his hands, “Although you’re spending a lot of ti with Osa now, that shouldn’t be a problem, right? I think Karima would be happy to accept that she might have a sister-in-law?”

Number Thirteen gritted his teeth and said, “You bastard! You did this on purpose! You called Karima just to stop from killing Osa!”

Gao Yang chuckled, “You’re overthinking.”

Number Thirteen said coldly, “I don’t mind showing my perverted side in front of you, but I don’t want Karima to think I’m a pervert. If there’s anyone who makes conceal my intentions, it’s Karima. You’ve succeeded; now that Karima’s coming, I certainly won’t kill Osa anymore, although I’ve been planning how to create the scene when I do for days.”

Number Thirteen rolled his wheelchair away, but stopped shortly after and said to Gao Yang, “If I killed Osa, I wouldn’t have any issues for the entire next year. I’d be normal, but since you forcibly stopped , if I have any psychological issues in the future, you’ll be responsible.” (To be continued.
