Chapter 261 Found the hideout
Chapter 261 Found the hideout
In the car, the mermaid captain called the headquarters, reported the situation and asked for police assistance. The Water City was so big that it would be difficult for them to search it with just a few people.
The people above agreed instantly after hearing this.
After hanging up, the captain looked at the speeding SUV in front of him, and while telling the driver to follow closely, he anxiously called Sifos, fearing that the two men would act impulsively and without regard for the consequences.
"Hey."
"Mr. Sifos, you must stay calm! Wait for us to act together, don't rush in rashly! We don't know what's going on inside, and you might get hurt!"
"I am calm and will not rush in."
But your speed is totally different!!! And you just ran a red light!!!
"If you have nothing else, hang up."
After saying that, Seaforth took the initiative to end the call, and then said to McQueen without looking away: "Fold down the back seat and pull it forward. There is a buckle at the bottom. Push it down to connect to the trunk. Lift up the plate in the middle and take out the things inside."
McQueen took a long step from the passenger seat to the back, and followed the instructions of Seaforth, and saw the trunk full of guns and equipment in a staggered manner. The cold light on it exuded a fascinating cold atmosphere.
McQueen took out a laser pistol and put it on his body, installed two replacement energy boxes, put a dagger on his leg, and finally assembled the only EL03 rapid-fire laser gun in advance.
McQueen also carried one each of other disabling weapons such as smoke bombs, tear gas bombs, and flash bombs.
"Are you wearing the damping vest?" Sifos asked, glancing in the rearview mirror.
McQueen took a quick glance and picked up the small cube wrapped in a black nylon bag next to him. He took out a silver-black vest from it. It was very light, only 0.2cm thick. It was the latest protective gear developed by the military. In addition to metal shell bullets, it could also resist lasers and electric shocks. Unfortunately, there was only one.
"You wear it. You are the father of four children. It will be more useful if you wear it. Besides, I have all the equipment. It will be troublesome to wear this."
Sifos mercilessly exposed his excuses: "What's the trouble? Just put it outside. Hurry up and stop talking nonsense. I don't need you to worry about me. You, a businessman, have no reason to give in to a soldier like me."
"Who are you looking down on? I am a graduate of the Combat Command Department of Dawn University! Before taking over the family business, I also trained in the army. If the old man hadn't insisted on me taking over, I might not be in a lower position than you now!" McQueen said arrogantly.
Sifos sighed, "Put it on. How am I going to explain to your sister if anything happens to you?"
McQueen was suddenly speechless by this sudden conciliatory policy. He didn't know what to say, and finally put it on awkwardly.
The SUV stopped across the street from the Water City. It was already 10 o'clock in the evening.
The streets were deserted, and all the surrounding shops selling luxury goods had closed for the day. Only the neon lights on the exterior of the buildings were still working tirelessly, telling of its prosperity.
The two of them got out of the car and looked at the five-story building of Water City with deep eyes. After knowing his tricks, they now felt that there were problems everywhere.
The doors of other shops were locked and it was dark inside, but only the first floor of this shop had lights on and there was a security guard standing guard at the door.
Are you afraid that someone will come and rob you, or are you afraid that the "cargo" will run away?
The two walked straight in through the main door, and one of the security guards stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stop them: "Excuse me, sir, we are closed. If you want to buy something, please come back tomorrow."
"Really? But I can't wait until tomorrow. I have to take her away today. What should I do?" McQueen had a cynical smile on his face and his eyes casually swept across the other's waist.
"There is nothing we can do about it. Please understand our..."
Before he could finish his words, McQueen suddenly attacked, grabbed the opponent's arm, threw him to the ground with a back throw, and then quickly twisted the opponent's hands behind his back.
Another man picked up the walkie-talkie and tried to tip off the person, but Sifos quickly kicked the device out of his hand and subdued him before he even had a chance to draw his gun.
"Someone, um...!"
With a teeth-grinding sound, the security guard's jaw was removed and saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth to the ground.
The other security guard didn't try to make any noise because McQueen had his gun drawn and was pressing it against the back of his head.
"Tell me the truth, where do you keep all the mermaids you captured?"
The security guard's forehead was covered with sweat, but he still insisted: "I don't know what you are talking about... We are a legitimate shopping mall..."
After Sifos removed the man's arms, he stood up, walked to him, squatted down, looked him in the eyes and asked, "Are you willing to speak? If you are, blink twice."
The man looked like he would rather die than surrender, with a look of resentment in his eyes, as if he was accusing the atrocities of Sifos and the other man as an innocent victim.
Sifos also pulled out a pistol from his waist, weighed it in his hand and said, "SIG Sauer P220 pistol... It's old. I have a more interesting one here, do you want to take a look?"
Sifos took out his laser gun and pointed it at the man's forehead. "I'll give you one more chance. Count to three and nod if you want to talk. One... two..."
The man's eyes gradually turned into one of terror, and his Adam's apple kept rolling up and down. When Sifos was about to count to three, his psychological defenses finally gave way, and he began to nod frantically, not even feeling the pain when his chin hit the floor.
With a light "whoosh" sound, a beam of red laser shot out and hit right in the center of his eyebrows.
"You answer too late. I don't have the patience to count to three." Sifos stared at the man lying on the ground with cold eyes, as if the god of death had arrived.
The light in the man's eyes gradually faded, and in his final expression, there was fear of death, but more of it was astonishment. He had never thought that his death would be so easy and sudden.
Sifos turned to the security guard on the other side, "Are you willing to talk now?"
"I'm telling you! Don't kill me... They are all at the bottom of this building. We need to take a special elevator to get down..."
Sifos grabbed the man by the collar and said, "Take us over there."
The security guard led the two people tremblingly through many turns until they came to a dead end. He then pointed at the wall in front of them and said, "This is the elevator door. You have to swipe your card to get in."
"Where's the card?"
"It's hanging on my waist... hanging with the bunch of keys is..."
With the experience of his colleague as a lesson, the man became extremely honest, fearing that he would make a wrong move or say a wrong word and get the same punishment as his colleague.
McQueen took off the keychain and asked him, "Where to swipe?"
The security guard pointed to a peeling spot on the wall. Sivers took the keychain and pressed the card in. The elevator door disguised as a wall opened to both sides.
The two of them were in a heavy mood watching this scene. The people behind the scenes had put a lot of thought into it. If they hadn't forced the questioning, they would probably have had a hard time finding this place.
Entering the elevator, Sifos found that there were five buttons, from -1 to -5, which meant there were five floors underground.
"What's the situation on each floor? Are there other guards here? Think carefully before answering. If you lie, you will be the first one to take the blame for us." Sifos threatened.
The man swallowed and explained, "Each level below holds different types of mermaids. Some are young and still need to grow, while others are fully grown and can...can have their scales removed..."
The man became more and more frightened as he spoke, and cold sweat broke out on his back, for he was afraid that the other party would not be able to hold back and would collapse.
"What else? Keep going."
"And, there are places dedicated to breeding mermaids... to pair them up... and then there are places for infants and the elderly, that's all... that's all..."
Hearing the security guard's words, the two could not help but feel shocked. The truth was even more absurd than they thought. The mastermind behind this wanted to achieve true "self-sufficiency". The entire fifth underground floor was equivalent to a simple life cycle.
"Where are the guards? Who are they?" McQueen poked the security guard's back with his gun.
"Oh, I forgot. There's only one person watching over the floors with children and the elderly. There are three people on duty on each of the other floors. They're all equipped with guns."
"Which floor are the children held on?"
"Fourth floor underground."
Sifos pressed the button for the -4th floor, and the elevator began to descend. The security guard took a quick look and wondered if they had caught some mermaid with a great background without knowing it. This was really a tough call... No, this was a direct call to the King of Hell...
As soon as the three of them went down, dozens of police cars rushed up from behind. As soon as they entered the door, they received the "gift" left for them by Sifos. It was still warm, brand new, with only a few flaws.
The mermaid captain collapsed and held his head in his hands: "I said we should wait until we arrive before taking action! This is too chaotic! Go find where they ran to, be careful where you go, and stay hidden!"
"Yes!"
The elevator was running very fast, but Sifos still felt that these few seconds were long and torturous. He was afraid of seeing a scene that he could not accept.
With a "bell" sound, the elevator reached the fourth underground floor.
The security guard walked in front at gunpoint, with Seaforth and McQueen carefully hiding behind him.
After exiting the elevator, they were faced with a dim corridor. At the end of the corridor stood an iron door with light coming from behind it. The three of them approached the light source cautiously.
The security guard was struggling over what to do next. Should he alert his accomplices? How should he alert them? Or should he help the two people behind him to conceal the truth? After he concealed the truth, would they let him go?
Seaforth and McQueen were also in a state of anxiety. Just thinking about the torture that Wei'er might have suffered was enough to make them feel heartbroken.
Finally reaching the end, the security guard suddenly froze in place, his whole body stiff.
The two looked at each other, both puzzled: Hadn't they already given him the key? What was he standing there in a daze?
Sifos decisively dodged behind the security guard, the muzzle of the gun exposed from his shoulder, ready to shoot at any time. But a glance made him freeze in place, his pupils constricted, as if he saw something unacceptable.
Seeing everyone like this, McQueen could no longer hold back and walked to the front. Through the iron gate, he saw a scene that he would never forget.
Half an hour ago——
Xu Weiwei waited anxiously. She didn't know whether the mermaid's drug would work on humans, how effective it would be, and whether the drug's effectiveness would be greatly reduced if three people drank it...
I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until I saw the three people collapse one by one and fall on the table. Maybe the alcohol played a role as well.
Xu Weiwei did not go out immediately, but asked Haisang to make some noise to observe the reactions of the three people to see if they were really asleep.
As a result, the moment the noise was heard, the tall man turned over and grumbled in his throat. The fat man and the other man did not react.
Xu Weiwei felt heavy-hearted.
Perhaps due to his good physical condition and the fact that the fat man drank most of the bottle of whiskey, the tall man did not completely lose consciousness.
Then her next move would be very dangerous. From stepping out of the cell door, getting the keys and elevator cards from them, to taking the elevator up. During the whole process, no matter when the tall man woke up, it would be fatal to her.
Even if she ran away, she might still face pursuit and hunting by these people. She was not familiar with this place and she had no chance of winning if she played hide-and-seek with these people.
Unless... unless he is made to lose the ability to chase me first, for example, by making him faint more thoroughly, then the threat will be greatly reduced.
There are 720 acupuncture points around the human body, 36 of which are death points, which are divided into four categories: soft and numb, dizzy, light and heavy.
There is a rhyme: "If Baihui falls to the ground, the tailbone will not return home. If Zhangmen is hit, nine out of ten people will die. If Taiyang and Yamen are hit, they will definitely meet the King of Hell. If the spine is broken and cannot be reconnected, the body will die immediately below the knees."
According to the literal meaning, if some of these acupoints are hit, the person will fall unconscious.
Xu Weiwei was confident in her skills, but she only had a pack of pearl needles used for tailoring, not the acupuncture needles, fire needles, plum blossom needles, etc. that she was used to.
If it is not handled properly, it will not be as simple as fainting, it may very likely be fatal.
Xu Weiwei's heart beat irregularly, her palms began to sweat, and her ears began to buzz. She swallowed some saliva to moisten her throat, and then said to Haisang, "Help me open the door."
Hai Sang looked at her deeply and went over to enter the password. The door made a light click and automatically popped open after being unlocked. He quickly raised his head to look at the three people over there, fearing that they would wake up.
He had never felt that this movement was so big.
Xu Weiwei held three needles in her hand and held the dagger at the same time.
"You stay here and don't move. If I manage to escape, I will bring people back to rescue you. If not... someone will definitely come looking for you."
"Anyway, let's stay here for now." Xu Weiwei said, looking into Haisang's eyes.
After saying that, Xu Weiwei walked out and pushed the door closed.
