“Don’t fret,” Vinson reassured her, “I will definitely recapture favonovel.com for you.”
Arielle nodded as a sense of dread began to creep into her.
After assuaging Arielle’s fears, Vinson got the bodyguard to send the man from the Specialized Forces in.
Usually, when members of the Specialized Forces appear at a company, it would mean that the company was done for. Therefore, to avoid any trouble, the Specialized Forces came in civilian clothing.
After the bodyguard left, there were only three people left in the room.
The member of the Specialized Forces bowed in respect before greeting fearfully, “Captain Nightshire.”
The address caught Arielle by surprise as favonovel.com turned to look at Vinson.
“You’re the Captain of the Specialized Forces?”
Vinson spread his arms helplessly. “I wasn’t keen but they forced me into taking up this position.”
Arielle shrugged. “Do you know how many people are dying for this position? And yet, you couldn’t care less about it.”
Vinson explained candidly, “Others desire it for the benefits that it would bring them. However, the Nightshire Group has never broken any rules. That‘s why I don‘t need it.”
He then turned to his subordinate. “Tell me in detail what happened.”
“Yes, sir!” The man recounted the incident remorsefully. However, the contents were similar to what the bodyguard had just reported.
After pondering for a moment, Vinson asked, “Did anyone in particular visit today?”
“Yes,” the subordinate replied. “However, they were previously caught for money laundering via a shell company. They came by to turn themselves in.”
“Turn themselves in?” Vinson squinted his eyes. “Given how serious their crimes are, there‘s no way they’re not aware of the consequences. Even if they turned themselves in, it would barely lighten their sentence.”
“It really is strange indeed.” The subordinate explained, “Furthermore, other than the money launderers, an owner of a chain of bars have also turned himself in. He confessed that his bars had been used for drug trafficking.”
“All these guys picked today on purpose…” Vinson ordered with a solemn voice, “Go and find out who these two groups of men have met recently. Also, have you checked the surveillance cameras at the detention area?”
“I have. However, the cameras are out of order.”
“Just as expected. This isn‘t a coincidence but a plot. The enemies have reacted so quickly that even I didn‘t expect them to rescue Cindy, let alone you.” Taking a deep breath, Vinson ordered, “Check all the other surveillance cameras nearby. Also, set up roadblocks on all routes that lead out of Jadeborough regardless of whether they‘re by air, sea, or land. We absolutely cannot allow Cindy to escape the city.”
“Yes, sir! I‘ll get it done right away.” The subordinate left without another word.
Watching his leaving silhouette, Arielle asked Vinson, “Can there be a mole?”
Vinson shook his head. “A possibility for other organizations, but not for the Specialized Forces. Every member has been trained since they were young and have a very strong bond with each other. Also, all of them are orphans. Hence, familial interest doesn‘t exist for them.”
Arielle lamented, “In that case, it only shows how powerful our enemy is.”
“Mmm–hmm,” Vinson nodded. “For the time being, I‘ll get Blake and Sasha to protect you as a precaution.”
Arielle didn‘t protest. After a brief silence, favonovel.com suggested, “Can I go over to the Specialized Forces‘ base? Perhaps, I can restore the surveillance cameras.”
“Sure, I‘ll take you there right away.”
“Don‘t!” Arielle stopped Vinson and explained, “I can see how busy you are. You should finish your work first. If it makes you feel better, you can get Rayson to send me.”
