Chapter 540 - Final Arc Part XII
"What are we going to do?" Seven's voice had a hint of shakiness in it as he looked at One.
But One didn't respond to his comrade. Instead, he grabbed Davi and got out of the car, roughly dragging her along and pointed a gun to her head. When all else fails, that was what a hostage is useful for. An evil grin spread across One's face, knowing that this woman was a valuable thing.
Sei was in the front line, with Kir and other soldiers on his side.
"Let us through, or else this woman dies." One demanded as he shook a limp Davi, gun still pointed at her head.
Sei calmly approached, with his hands lifted, palms facing forward.
"Stop right there! And don't even waste your time negotiating. I'm not very patient." One snarled at Sei's approach.
Sei stopped. Holding his breath. He could see blood flowing from the side of Davi's head. His wife was injured!
"Alright. What do you want me to do?" Sei forced himself to keep his voice calm and even. To the observers at the side, he was the picture of calm and collected. Only Sei himself knew how much he was panicking and dying to tear One to pieces with his bȧrė hands for hurting the love of his life. He would never forgive this person. Once he catches him, he'd tear him apart alive! He swore to himself.
"I need that helicopter. Now!" One barked out, nodding towards one of the helicopters that was hovering somewhere behind Sei and his men. Not a single moment did One let the gun relax from its position on Davi's head. He knew how important this woman was to the people in front of him. She was his golden bargaining chip!
Sei nodded at his men and the helicopter slowly descended after some instructions were given through a walkie talkie.
"Now, you have got what you want. Give me the woman." Sei said. His voice was still the epitome of calmness.
"No. If we give this woman to you, I am certain this helicopter will blow up the moment it goes up in the air. Don't you go taking me for a fool."
Sei knew that it will be over if he allowed these men… no, these terrorists leave with his wife. But how could he and his men deal with this? One was not even a normal human who could feel pressure! Nor could he even be persuaded. A person like him is at best, a cold-blooded killer who enjoys doing what he does. At worst…? Sei did not even want to think that far ahead. But Sei had already foreseen this scenario. He knew that a terrorist like them with a hostage would ask for another escape plan when their escape route was block. Meaning, they'd definitely ask for a helicopter to escape!
Sei's eyes fell on the helicopter. And something in his eyes gleamed. His men who saw that glint in his eyes all knew the meaning of that. Their boss was not only talented and smart, but one of the most gifted young minds in the global circles right now. He must have already found a solution to get through this big problem they are facing right now. Some of them were amazed at how fast his mind had worked out a solution – and all on his own too.
His men already knew how capable boss Sei is. But seeing him directly in action was truly awe inspiring and made them swear in their own hearts that they would follow this remarkable man their whole lives.
"Alright." Sei pretended to relent. Even his acting skills were top notch and managed to fool One.
After Sei's men made way, the trio then cautiously proceeded to move towards their escape vehicle. All the while, One made sure that his grip on Davi was tight and ruthless. He did not even remove the gun that was harshly shoved against her temple, though it was obvious that she was totally unconscious and could in no way fight back or wrestle her way to escape his grasp. All of them – hostage included – successfully entered the helicopter, with One being the last one entering and dragging Davi inside after him. Even as he did that, he took precautions in having Davi placed in front of him as he backed up into the helicopter just to ensure that no one tried to shoot at him right at the last second.
As soon as the helicopter's door was closed, One pointed his gun at the pilot.
"Let's go!" he barked out and as soon as they were in the sky, One suddenly moved his gun. He was intending to shoot the pilot and get rid of evidence, then take over the helicopter on his own. Dead people cannot be good witnesses. But before he could pull the trigger, the pilot's hand shot out and clamped down on his arm. The pilot was Zaki!
"F*ck!" One and company were cursing but their bad news was not over yet as the co-pilot turned out to be Juu.
While all these was happening, those on the ground were keeping their eyes on the escape helicopter and at extreme attention, ready to react when needed. Once they saw a parachute descending from the helicopter, a cheer rippled through the crowd.. Sei was exceptionally relieved when he saw the red and yellow parachute descending, knowing that the rescue mission was successful.
