[Black Rose?]
Mary heard the code name again.
[It can be related to Black Rose. Could it be that the goods they are talking about are smuggled cultural relics? 】
"Humph."
Harry snorted coldly when he heard this.
"This has nothing to do with me. I only know that the agreement we made before was that I paid the money and you delivered the goods. I don't care about anything else. Now the goods are gone, and you can't just talk about it!"
"Of course I know this, Harry, please don't worry, I have asked people from MI to take action regarding that batch of goods, and I believe there will be results soon.
Rather than that, let's talk about the 'legacy' first. After all, this is our 'main course' today, right? "
[MI6?!]
Mary never expected that she would actually hear this word from the mouth of this British smuggler?
What is this person's identity?
Judging from his tone, he seems to be able to command the MI6 agents?!
In a state of excitement, Mary subconsciously exerted a little more force on the hand that was holding the large wooden box, and crushed an old and rotten wooden board on it.
"Crack!"
A crisp breaking sound was heard, not loud, but just loud enough for the people in the warehouse to hear.
"Who is it?!" Harry turned around suddenly and shouted.
【Oops! 】
Mary was startled and quickly shrank back behind the wooden box.
"Go over and have a look!"
Several mafia members in the warehouse drew their pistols and approached the wooden box where Mary was hiding.
Among them, the fat businessman Andrew had a puzzled expression on his face. He seemed to have thought of something. He took a few steps back and deliberately left the mafia's protection circle alone and moved closer to the corner of the warehouse.
"Who is it? Come out quickly!"
Harry shouted again and waved to the mafia members around him to come closer.
The crisis was approaching, but at this critical moment, Mary remained calm. She took out the pistol from her body and quickly looked around.
This glance made her notice Andrew who was approaching alone.
【Have the opportunity! 】
If she took this man hostage, perhaps she could escape from this warehouse.
"Boom!"
Gunshots rang out and Mary quickly planned an assault route in her mind. She did what she said and rushed out quickly. During this time, bullets continued to hit the walls and wooden boxes around her.
Wood chips flew everywhere. Under the extreme stimulation of adrenaline, Mary jumped over the wooden boxes on the assault route at a speed that surprised even herself. She crossed the distance of more than ten meters in a very thrilling way and sprinted in front of the fat businessman Andrew.
"Stop her!"
【Success! 】
Amid Harry's shouting behind her, Mary rushed straight towards Andrew, who looked frightened.
However, at this moment, the obese businessman who looked pot-bellied suddenly pulled out the shaft of his cane at an extremely fast speed, revealing the black muzzle of the gun hidden in the cane.
"Oh, the poor little white rabbit has taken the bait..."
Mary's pupils suddenly shrank, and the shock on her face was clearly visible. Andrew raised the pistol hidden in his cane and smiled cruelly.
"Bah!"
Blood splattered with the sound of gunfire.
"I can't get through..."
In the apartment on the other side, after trying every possible way, Bai Heqing put down the landline phone on the bedside table and sighed softly.
It seems that this landline phone can only make calls within France and cannot make calls to Japan at all.
Some regrets.
He was just thinking that maybe he could give Huizi a call...
Leaving the bedroom and returning to the living room, he turned his head and looked at the sky outside.
The sky was getting a little dim, it was almost evening, and Mary should be back soon...
"Boom boom boom!"
Just when Baihe Qing had this thought in his mind, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the apartment.
【Not Mary.】
Being alert, Bai Heqing did not respond, but quietly approached the door and looked outside through the peephole.
There was a woman standing outside the door with an anxious look on her face. Seeing that Bai Heqing inside did not respond, she knocked on the door anxiously a few more times.
"Hey! East Asian man, you're still in there, right?! Come out quickly! Your blonde girlfriend has been captured!"
Chapter 407 You all must die here!
In the abandoned dock warehouse, Mary was lying unconscious on the ground with her hands tied behind her back. Blood was oozing out from the bullet wound on her left shoulder, staining the ground below her red.
"Who is this woman?"
In front of Mary, Mafia boss Harry put his hands in his pockets and looked coldly at the fat businessman Andrew beside him.
Obviously, he thought that Mary's appearance was related to Andrew, and that it was Andrew who leaked the information about their meeting.
"Harry, don't look at me like that."
After reassembling his mechanical cane, Andrew shook the fat on his face and said innocently:
"You saw it too. This woman's target just now was me. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would be the one lying on the ground now..."
"Humph!" Harry sneered and asked, "So what? You want to say you are innocent? This woman's appearance here has nothing to do with you?"
"Don't be so quick to pass the buck, Harry. I never said anything like that."
Compared with the mafia boss, the fat businessman is obviously more shrewd.
"This woman's target is obviously us. Oh~ Think carefully about how she dodged my bullet before. I was clearly aiming at her heart, but she still managed to avoid it at such a close distance. This kind of physical reaction ability is not something that ordinary people can have.
Therefore, she must have received special training. Although I don't want to admit it, since she is here, it means that someone must have leaked our meeting.
Now, what we should do is not to blame each other, but to find ways to investigate each other and find out where the problem lies.
Only in this way can we ensure that our next batch of 'heritage' transactions can proceed smoothly, isn't it? "
Having said that, Andrew straightened his suit, took off his hat and saluted towards Harry.
"Then, Harry, this woman is left to you. Please allow me to take my leave now. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter.
I also suggest that you leave here as soon as possible. After all, this place is definitely not safe anymore..."
After he finished speaking, Andrew left the warehouse with his servants, got into the car parked outside, and drove away.
[That woman, with that kind of skill, is definitely not an ordinary person...]
The car started, and Andrew looked through the window again at Mary who had fainted on the ground in the warehouse.
[If the person who leaked the information about this meeting was not someone from Harry's side, but mine...]
The car drove out of the dock. Andrew sat in the middle of the back seat, his hands on his crutches and his eyes closed.
[Could it be... MI6? Could it be that London has already set its sights on me? ]
[If this is the case, then this is a really terrible situation. We cannot investigate, or we will be caught by London.]
[Forget it. After the transaction of the 'inheritance' is completed, I will almost be able to step down. What will I have to worry about then? As for that woman...]
"Humph."
The car stopped at a traffic light, and Andrew suddenly sneered.
Isn't he still familiar with the working habits of the French mafia?
That woman will definitely not survive today.
The green light turned on and the car started again. Andrew, who had planned everything in his mind, finally opened his eyes.
Just then, he saw an East Asian man running hurriedly on the sidewalk next to him, as if he had something urgent to do.
Although it was just a quick glance, Andrew still saw the face of this East Asian man clearly.
[It's really rare to see an East Asian living in Paris... huh? ]
Andrew sighed in his heart and suddenly realized that the pupils of the East Asian man’s eyes... seemed to be purple?
[Wait! That East Asian male?!]
Suddenly, relying on the professional qualities he had cultivated over the past few decades, Andrew instantly recalled the name of the East Asian man.
Bai Heqing!
He remembered that last night in London, the director specifically ordered him to contact the relevant authorities to expedite the processing of two visas. One of the visas was for the East Asian man who had just run over!
There was a look of disbelief in Andrew's shrewd little eyes.
He wouldn't be mistaken, the East Asian man's appearance and the eye-catching purple pupils were exactly the same as the photo of Shirakawa Kiyoshi in his memory!
That was why he also remembered the photo of the other person in the two visas that the director had asked him to apply for.
It was the blonde woman who was beaten by him in the warehouse!
[Director, MI6... Is it true that London has already set its sights on him? ]
Realizing this possibility, Andrew showed a look of panic on his face.
[No! Regardless of whether these two people are here to investigate me or not, we must not let them live! Absolutely!]
He soon thought of a solution, and the panic on Andrew's face gradually turned into hideousness.
The East Asian man should have been heading towards the dock. He must have realized that something had happened to his companion...
