The people on the ground kept quiet.
All of them were professional mercenaries, so they definitely weren't allowed to reveal their employer. Besides, they had only taken the job for money; to be honest, they might not even know their employer's true identity themselves.
Nora pressed the muzzle against the leader's chin and jabbed him with it. She said, "You'd best think this through. Will you talk or not?"
The leader looked at the woman in front of him.
He sneered and said, "I will never say anything even if you kill me! We are all people with professional ethics!"
"Is that so?"
Nora countered. She grabbed the leader by the collar and brought him straight into the lounge next to the toll booth.
As soon as they entered, Nora saw the staff members, who were originally working there, all tied up and left by themselves inside.
Nora quickly untied them and asked, "Can I borrow this room for a while?"
Everyone:"..."
Yes, of course!
The mercenaries who had tied them up were awfully fierce, yet that man didn't even dare to make a peep in front of the woman right now. How would the staff members possibly dare to refuse her request?
As a result, everyone went out the door obediently.
Thud!
The door closed.
The staff then heard Nora's low voice coming from the room. "Will you talk?"
"No..."
Bam!
Thud!
Clang!
Thump!
Boom!
After a series of thumps came from the room, the leader wept weakly and said, "I'll talk, boohoo..."
The woman was simply terrifying. Her torture methods were so cruel that they were inhumane!
Was there anything these mercenaries hadn't seen? Yet he had been browbeaten into talking!
The sniveling leader said, "I-it's an organization that calls themselves the 'mysterious organization'. They gave me money! They wanted me to kidnap that woman named Queenie and take her to them!"
The mysterious organization...
Nora clapped her hands together. "Mm, I thought so."
... Then why are you still asking me about it? The leader thought to himself.
As Nora exited the lounge, she saw Queenie with a frown on her face. She walked over and found that Queenie's cell phone was ringing. Queenie looked at it— it was a string of numbers.
