Chapter 13 Night Devil
"I understand!" John nodded. No wonder they had to help. It turned out that in addition to rescuing hostages, they also had to kill people.
"What is the nature of the mission?" John was experienced. If it was a simple kidnapping case, it would be fine. But if this kidnapping involved competition between chaebols, he would have to consider it carefully.
Although his Buffalo Squad were all elites, if they rashly got involved in the war between the consortiums, it would still be like hitting a rock with an egg!
After all, the real masters of America are those high-ranking chaebol capitalists. If they are pissed off, they can turn the table at any time, and even classify them as terrorists and send troops to encircle and suppress them!
"Kidnapping!" Lucero also knew what John meant, so he nodded affirmatively, indicating that this mission was to rescue the company's eldest daughter.
"Last night, no, to be more precise, early this morning, a massacre occurred in an underground bar in Monroe City. As many as 100 people died, and no one survived the scene. Miss Elena was arrested in that bar!"
Lucero said, taking the cowhide bag handed over by the bodyguard and pouring out a stack of photos from it. When several people saw it, they saw that the photos were all corpses with various miserable deaths, some were chopped up, and some were crushed into meat paste. It was bloody and cruel.
"A big case with hundreds of deaths? This happened in Monroe City early this morning?" Sander said in disbelief, "Why didn't I hear a word of it!"
"Because it was too cruel, the case was directly taken over by the FBI and CTU and was completely blocked and confidential. Basically, all the police and witnesses who knew about it are currently under centralized control to prevent the news from leaking out and causing panic among the people!" Lucero shrugged, showing the group company's powerful information channels.
CTU, or Counter-Terrorism Unit, is an elite organization affiliated with the Central Intelligence Agency. It is located in major cities in the United States. Its duty is to monitor the actions of American or foreign terrorists in the United States and prevent terrorist attacks. This shows how serious the case is.
"It seems that there will be news of natural gas explosions in a few days, causing hundreds of deaths!" John threw the photo in his hand with a mocking face.
"I took a rough look. The deaths in the photos were almost all caused by various cold weapons or this modified press. There were no hot weapons." Talia looked through the bloody and terrifying photos carefully, and soon found suspicious points.
To kill people in this way, the other party is either a pervert or a lunatic with an abnormal mind!
Levi took the photo without saying anything. From the middle photo, he found a body that was crushed and only had a head left. It was Elena's best friend Jenny!
The girl who was still alive and kicking the day before yesterday, full of expectations for the future, has now become a pile of meat paste in the photo!
"There is another question!" Levi, who was used to seeing life and death, did not feel angry, but felt a little regretful.
"Please speak!" Lucero was very calm.
"How did you know that Miss Elena was taken away?" Levi put away the photo in his hand, "Excuse me, the fact that you can find us means that you have found the gangster who committed the massacre. How did Mr. Lucero do it?"
"In fact, several similar cases have occurred in several cities around in the past year, but the number of casualties is not as exaggerated as this time." Lucero revealed some information, "If you watch TV, you will know that the gangster is called the Night Demon by the people. After each crime, the other party will take one person away from the scene, and almost all of them are missing!"
"Just based on this point, it is too arbitrary to conclude that Miss Elena was taken away by the Night Demon?" John frowned. What he hated most was dealing with those perverts.
"We are very sure! Because I found the only witness, and also the only survivor who escaped from the Night Demon!" Lucero nodded, and at the same time pulled off the hood of the man next to him, revealing a pale face covered with scars.
The bodyguard behind Lucero took out a small bottle from his arms, opened it and put it under the man's nose. A few seconds later, the man woke up from his coma.
"Ahem!" Ajin opened his eyes and coughed a few times, his eyes were confused and he had no idea how he got here from the hospital.
It's just that everyone in this room looks very difficult to mess with, so Ajin wisely chose to wait and see in silence.
"His name is Ajin, he is a habitual thief, he witnessed Miss Elena being captured by the Night Demon! Through him, I believe I can find the Night Demon's lair and rescue Miss Elena!"
"No! No! No! I won't go back!" But when he heard that these people actually wanted to find the Night Demon through him, Ajin was immediately scared and wanted to stand up and run away, but he was pressed on the chair by the bodyguard behind him and couldn't move.
"You don't know the horror of the Night Demon. He is a demon! Going to him is courting death!" Ajin yelled, "Please, I finally escaped from that hellish place. I don't want to go back!"
"Pah!" Hearing Ajin's yell, Lucero stood up, took out a pistol and put it against Ajin's forehead, which immediately made him quiet down.
"Listen to me, Ajin. You know Night Devil better than any of us, so you should know that he will never let you go, even if you run to the ends of the earth!" Lucero leaned close to Ajin's ear and whispered, "Think about your wife and the baby in her belly. Do you want Night Devil to cut them into pieces?"
After hearing Lucero's words, Ajin fell silent. He didn't dare to bet whether he would be found by Night Devil, and he didn't dare to think about what a miserable end he and his wife would have if they were found!
"In fact, there is only one way in front of you now. Cooperate with us to completely solve the Night Demon and get rid of that nightmare forever!" Lucero put away his pistol, "And the matter of killing the Night Demon will be done by professionals, you just need to lead the way!"
"Are you just a few of you?" After a moment of silence, Ajin finally raised his head, glanced around and shook his head, "There are too few people, that is a real demon, we must kill him once and for all!"
"You don't need to worry about these! Those are top mercenaries who have experienced hundreds of battles. Killing the Night Demon is definitely not a problem!" Lucero investigated the origins and information of several people in the Bison Team and was quite confident in them.
After all, in his opinion, no matter how perverted and cruel the Night Demon is, he is just a flesh and blood person. Under the concentrated fire of modern thermal weapons, he will only end up dead!
Lucero took out a check from his pocket and pushed it to the middle of the table. "I know your rules. The deposit is 500,000 US dollars. After completing the mission, the other half of the balance will be paid!"
Completing a rescue mission will earn one million US dollars. If the five people share it equally, each person can get 200,000 US dollars. He is extremely generous, worthy of being a capitalist worth billions of US dollars.
"I will go if you agree to one of my requests!" Ajin looked at the check on the table and suddenly said, "Deposit 200,000 US dollars to my wife's card! Now!"
"Deal!"
