At dawn, the owner who was behind the cashier of the small inn was still in a state of drowsiness. Jimmy cast a glance at him and gestured with his hand, motioning for his team to be light in their movements and go around him to look for people.
The squad went upstairs in an orderly manner, without making a sound.
Ariah didn't expect so many of them to be able to move without making a sound; she couldn't hear even the slightest sound of footsteps.
Bending over, she followed behind them, feeling nervous and excited.
After entering the elevator, Ariah let out a sigh of relief.
There were many people in the elevator. Jimmy protected Ariah in the corner and used his body to block her, giving her a small space.
Ariah curled up in front of Jimmy's chest. His tall and straight figure protected her. Due to the narrow space, the two of them were very close to each other, and she felt his constant breathing above her head.
As soon as she looked up, she saw his prominent Adam's bobbing sexily.
As she turned his eyes, she could still see his well-defined chin.
Ariah's eyes were fixed on it.
Jimmy lowered his voice and raised his hand to press her head. "Look elsewhere!"
Ariah was speechless.
The elevator door dinged and opened. Jimmy let go of her. Opening his mouth again-this time his voice was not as hoarse as before - he calmly said, "David, take two people, you too Ben! The rest of you follow me."
"Yes sir!"
The three small teams moved out separately.
Ariah followed Jimmy closely by his side. She suddenly thought of something and tugged at his clothes. "There! That's the room. It seems like the owner of the hotel has been keeping it for Ricco. As long as he comes, he'll stay there."
Jimmy narrowed his eyes. He remembered the last time when he found this place. It seemed to be the room not far away.
"Then let's go take a look at that room!"
Jimmy was fast. Soon, he came to the room with his men. The door was closed, so they couldn't see what was going on inside.
"Explosive Team, get ready!" Jimmy said to the
walkie-talkie in a low voice.
Ariah covered her ears and hid to one side.
With a loud bang, the door was blasted open. Jimmy was the first to enter the room. Obviously, the people in the room didn't expect that someone would break in.
Ariah looked out of the door and let out a sigh of relief.
They've found them.
Ricco stood behind the chair, on which Kevin sat. Kevin's hands and feet were tied together, and he couldn't move.
Holding a gun in hand, Ricco pointed it directly at Kevin.
Ariah was dumbfounded. What did this mean? Didn't Ricco let Kevin go? Why did it seem like Ricco was about to kill him now?
In the meantime, Kevin, who was sitting on the chair, had blood at the corner of his mouth and bruises on his face. It was obvious he was beaten by someone.
Was it Ricco who hit him?
Ariah had questions in her head. What was going on?
Surprised, Ricco raised his eyebrows. "How did you know I was here?"
Ariah walked in and said, "Felipe told us." "Felipe?" Ricco was stunned for a moment and then shook his head. "It's impossible. I know Felipe well. He is not a double agent. If he had promised not to betray me, he would not snitch."
After a pause, he frowned. "Did you beat the kid into a pulp?"
Ariah immediately replied, "Are we that kind of people? He really said it himself. If you don't believe me, you can ask him yourself when you get back."
Ricco smiled. "Do you want me to put down my gun?"
Ariah nodded her head, "Put down the gun, or you'll be going to hell."
"I'll drag him with me if I have to go to hell."
