Chapter 119 Mad Ivan
Chapter 119 Mad Ivan
"There's no one in the yard anymore, take your time. There's a ladder, follow me!" Ah Da led the girls out of the demolished house and to the ladder. "Hold on tight, hurry up, there are people waiting outside."
Although the girls were weak, climbing a ladder wasn't a big problem for them.
Soon, the girls climbed the ladder one by one. When they reached the top of the wall, there was another small ladder outside. The wall was less than 3 meters high, so they didn't need a long ladder. One team member stood on the ladder, grabbed the girl's legs, and slowly lowered her down, telling her to climb onto his back. He would then slowly lower her down and go up to catch the next girl. In just a few minutes, he had caught 5 girls, and it went very smoothly.
The girl was stuffed into the car, three were crammed into the back seat, one into the trunk, and one into the passenger seat. One team member drove off first.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the Japanese quarter, Ivan Petrov (Artem Ignatiev), wearing a trench coat, hurried toward the Kagurazaka Izakaya with four time bombs hidden in his briefcase.
His eyes were serious. The person he wanted to save was a Soviet female intelligence agent who had worked with him. She had been kidnapped by the Japanese army and disappeared after that. He had finally confirmed her whereabouts, and he was determined to take her out, even if it meant destroying the entire clubhouse.
In the shadows, Xiaomi and Su Peiyao were secretly following them.
Su Peiyao, dressed in an elegant cheongsam and carrying a musical instrument case, disguised herself as a Chinese artist returning home late. Her Malaysian citizenship certificate was already prepared, enough to deal with any unexpected checks.
"Sister Su, Ivan is 300 meters away from the club. The bomb's timer is set to detonate in ten minutes."
Mimi reports in a low voice through a hidden earpiece, while her eye camera transmits Ivan's movements in real time.
Su Peiyao nodded slightly, her gaze falling on the instrument case, inside which, besides the violin, was a silenced pistol.
"As ordered by the captain, we'll act after he plants the bombs, and then throw the bodies into the incinerator. If he brings anyone out, I'll go and meet them. If we can turn them into traitors, we'll do so; if not, we'll silence them."
Inside the courtyard, Huang Mo watched the car drive away and said in a deep voice, "The rest of you, come with me. Go rescue our compatriots in the kitchen and the front yard. Be quick, Ivan could arrive at any moment!"
The group immediately composed themselves, gripped their weapons, and made their way towards the guest rooms in the front yard.
Upon reaching the guest room corridor, a waiter suddenly appeared, seemingly having just served the dishes. Ah Da quickly pulled his teammate aside and hid around the corner. Luckily, they were almost seen.
As soon as the waiter turned the corner, Ah Da suddenly struck and snapped his neck.
After placing the waiter's body in the empty room, Huang Mo arrived. After assessing the situation, he said, "Ah Da, you're in charge of this floor. I'll go up to the second floor and check! Don't alert the ronin in the front yard!"
"Okay!" Ah Da said, taking out a silenced Browning, checking the bullets and safety, and then gesturing to his teammates behind him, "I'll go to the left, and you two go to the right."
The team members nodded, and A-Da led one of them to the room on the left.
The building only has two floors, and no one has paid attention to the basement. They don't know if it exists. Just to be on the safe side, Huang Mo left two people to go down to the front yard and check, without alerting the ronin. If all else fails, they can give up checking the basement.
Fortunately, the guys downstairs came back and said that since there were no doors or other dark places, there probably wasn't a basement.
"That's good. Try not to miss anyone! Let's get to work!" Huang Mo led the way to the left side of the second floor, while the remaining two teammates went to the right side.
Huang Mo quickly opened a sliding door to a room. This dilapidated Japanese-style door could be pulled open with a single push. Locks and other such methods were simply laughable to these skilled martial artists.
The room wasn't big. Inside was a tatami mat, where a man and two women, one black and one white, were having sex. When Huang Mo came in, the man immediately went limp and plopped down on the black woman.
Huang Mo opened and closed the door in a second. As soon as the door closed, the squeals of the two girls reached his ears.
"Ah~!~"
"Seriously!" Huang Mo fired directly, killing the man between the eyebrows—a very accurate shot.
The woman in black and white quickly covered her mouth, and the room fell silent. However, the sight of the two naked people gave Huang Mo a rather stimulating experience, leaving him stunned. "Get dressed! Shut up!"
"..." The two girls, Black and White, didn't understand Chinese, and Huang Mo didn't understand English or Russian, but they were clever enough to understand Huang Mo's gestures. They quickly shut up and got dressed.
Under Huang Mo's guidance, the two got dressed and quietly followed him downstairs. When they arrived at the backyard, they climbed the wall and went upstairs with the help of their teammates.
A-Da and the other team members followed suit, operating in the same manner. The entire process proceeded quietly without any messy mistakes.
Until he saw a Russian girl tied up, surrounded by several Japanese officers circling and whipping her—a truly grotesque scene that disgusted Ah Da. These sights severely polluted his mind. He immediately opened and closed the door, sat by the doorway, and breathed heavily, muttering, "What the hell?"
Ah Da, completely confused, shook his head, quickly got up, grabbed his gun, crouched down, and went to the stairwell. Seeing his teammates approaching but no one behind them, he asked, "Where is everyone?"
"That's all, the houses in the back are empty!"
"Let's go!" Ah Da told the team members to go first, while he guarded the stairwell and waited for Huang Mo to come down.
Less than a minute later, Huang Mo came down, followed by three women. "Let's go!"
Huang Mo also indicated that there was no one behind them. The three girls were followed by three teammates who came down from the second floor.
The group nimbly climbed over the wall and left, getting into four cars and quickly driving away.
Ivan arrived less than five minutes after Huang Mo and the others left.
Ivan walked halfway around the courtyard wall, not daring to make too much of a show of it. As he walked, he planted explosives at the corners of the wall, intending to blow it up so he could go in and rescue the people.
He adjusted the timing of the explosives to about 3 minutes. After blowing up the wall, he would go inside, find his comrades within 3 minutes, and then throw the remaining explosives to cut off their retreat and prevent others from catching up with them.
According to his plan, when those ronin chased him, they would easily gather in groups. By setting the time on the explosives, he could maximize the probability of killing a large number of ronin.
However, he made a mistake. Ronin are living people, and if they really want to chase him, they can run away. Even if he had tried his best to adjust the timing, things in this world often don't go as you expect.
Ivan planted the explosives, not a large amount, and detonated them directionally. The sound was not loud, but it left a hole in the wall.
Clearly, Ivan was well-educated; the explosives he made were precise and exactly what he wanted, producing the effect he desired.
Ivan was very satisfied and quickly went inside, heading towards the small building.
The ronin in the front yard was startled awake and got up noisily to get dressed, since it was already past October and quite cold outside.
When the ronin came out dressed, the courtyard was in a mess, especially the backyard, which was filled with smoke and had a hole in the wall, clearly indicating that someone had broken in.
The ronin quickly called out to each other and surrounded the guest rooms. Several of them went up to the second floor and began to check each room.
When they checked the last room on the second floor, the ronin saw Ivan standing in the center of the room where the bound Russian girl was, his face streaked with tears. Next to him lay the bodies of several officers, all with gunshot wounds to their foreheads and bodies, including the Russian girl's naked body, which, in addition to the gunshot wounds, had many whip marks and candle wax marks.
Apart from Ivan and a few ronin who came in to surround him, there was no one alive in the room.
Just as the ronin were about to ask a question, three loud noises suddenly rang out.
Ivan detonated the remaining explosives in his hand.
The small building collapsed in the explosion, a corner was blown off, and half of the building was reduced to ruins in an instant. Ivan and several ronin were buried under the rubble, and their remains were never found.
