Those on the ground were silent.
They were all professional mercenaries, so they couldnât reveal their employer. Besides, they had only accepted the job for money; to be honest, they might not even know the true identity of their employer themselves.
Nora pressed the muzzle of the cannon against the leaderâs chin and prodded him with it. She said, âYouâd better think this over, are you going to talk or not?â
The leader looked at the woman in front of him.
She scoffed and said, âIâll never say anything even if they kill me! We are all people with professional ethics.â
âIs that so?â replied Nora. She grabbed the leader by the collar and led him straight to the room next to the toll booth.
As soon as they entered, Nora saw the staff members, who originally worked there, all tied up and left inside.
G aln ove ls . com has stories youâll love Nora quickly untied them and asked, âMay I borrow this room for a while?â.
All: ââ¦â
Yes, of course. The mercenaries who had tied them up were terribly fierce, but that man didnât even dare to make a gesture in front of the woman right now. How could the staff members dare to refuse her request? As a result, they all obediently walked out the door.
Thump!
The door closed.
The staff then heard Noraâs deep voice coming from the room. âDo you want to talk?â
âNoâ¦â
Bam!
Thud!
Clang!
Thump!
Boom!
After a series of blows, the leader cried faintly and said, âIâll talk, boohooâ¦â
The woman was simply terrifying. Her methods of torture were so cruel as to be inhuman.
Was there anything these mercenaries hadnât seen? Yet they had intimidated him into talking!
The weeping leader said, âItâs an organization that calls itself a âmysterious organizationâ. They gave me money. They wanted me to kidnap that woman named Queenie and take her with them.â
The mysterious organizationâ¦.
Nora clapped her hands. âMm, I figured as much.
â⦠So, why am I wondering?â the leader thought to himself.
As Nora left the room, she saw Queenie with a frown on her face. She walked over and found that Queenieâs phone was ringing. Queenie looked at it: it was a string of numbers.
Although Queenie didnât recognize the string of numbers, it looked familiar to Nora. Something occurred to her and she raised her eyebrows. âPick up, Aunt Queenie.â
Queenie picked up the call, to which Truemanâs voice was heard from the other end. âHeh, I know youâve eliminated the people I sent. Now Iâm going to give you an address. You go over there with the V16. Iâll send someone to pick you up.â
Then Trueman added, âYou canât get in touch with Nora, otherwise I wonât mind sending you a gift while I wait. For example, how does your sisterâs hand sound? If Iâm not mistaken, she has beautiful handsâ¦â.
Queenie clenched her fists. âIâll do whatever you tell me. Donât do anything rash.â
âNo problem.â After Trueman gave her an address, she hung up.
Nora was about to get into the car when suddenly her phone rang. When she pulled it out and looked at it, she discovered that it was Trueman, who had just gotten off the phone with Queenie, calling her.
Nora: â?â
She looked at Queenie and then answered the phone. Instantly, she heard Truemanâs deep chuckle as he said, âHow are you feeling now? I told you to be careful with Queenie, didnât I? So the two V16s are already gone, right? You still want to save Xander? My offer still stands: if you accept me as your master, Iâll consider giving you one of the V16s.â
Nora: ââ¦â
The corners of her lips tightened and she hung up.
Then, she looked at the mercenary leader and ordered, âYou, tie them up.â
As a resultâ¦
When Brenda led the SWAT team out half an hour later, they saw the staff members standing outside, shaking like leaves.
All of the mercenaries had been securely strapped down and were squatting on the floor of the room. When Brenda arrived, the group felt they had just seen their savior.
Brenda found their leader and immediately asked, âTell me, whatâs going on?â
The leader, who was crying, replied, âWe just took a job to kidnap Queenie Schmidt, but a woman in a black mask beat us up and then trapped us here. A man also came after her and beat us again. Boohooâ¦â
She had even lost quite a few teeth!
Brenda was surprised by what he said. She asked, âAre you saying that, in addition to Queenie Schmidtâs bodyguards, another man had come? Who was it?â
The leader continued to cry as he replied, âI donât know either. You only asked me where Queenie Schmidt and the others had gone? I didnât know where they had gone, so he hit meâ¦â
The leader felt terribly aggrieved!
Because he really didnât know the answer!
Brenda frowned.
She was aware that Queenie had stolen the V16 and absconded with it because the incident had caused such a stir in the underworld. Of course, the people in the underworld didnât know it was the V16 she had stolen; they only knew it was something valuable.
However, Brenda was perceptive enough to realize that she must have stolen the V16. In that case, since she had sought out black market mercenaries to protect and escort her, Barbarian would undoubtedly find out.
Barbarian would undoubtedly come after her.
Therefore, Brenda had immediately directed her men to search for Queenie in the city.
At first, they had no information, but someone had made a police report about an armed conflict involving several parties at the highway tollbooth. When he got the news, he immediately realized what was going on and rushed over.
But the problem was: who was the man who had appeared after Queenie and her group left, the one who had interrogated the mercenary leader afterwards?
Was it Barbarian?
