Listening to his big brother's tone, which basically amounted to looking down on him, Vodka couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He obviously knew exactly how much his own ability was worth, and had desperately refused when he received the mission back then. But the problem was, his superior and his big brother back then forced him to come...
"Big Brother, then are the two of us just here to be decorations? Even us, couldn't we still execute some missions?"
Vodka was a bit unwilling; was his impression in the department just that of a third-rate agent who couldn't do anything right? This was a blow to him, who had been loyal to Ursus for so many years, just like a pot of cold water extinguishing his passionate heart.
"You are not completely devoid of value; your loyalty to the country is also obvious to all of us here. It is precisely because I trust you will not betray that I can hand this mission to you."
Seemingly hearing Vodka's low spirits, the hoarse voice also comforted him slightly. And he expressed a highly appreciative tone for the loyalty he had maintained for so many years. In other words, the degree of emphasis on loyalty for this mission was more important than working ability. And these two people, lacking in professional ability but always having high loyalty, were perfect subordinates.
"Then what do we do next, Big Brother? Now those nobles' subordinates definitely already know we discovered the listening device; isn't our situation a bit dangerous?"
At a time like this, Vodka did not have time to care about these small details. Anyway, looking at the current situation, it was good enough that the country he was loyal to had not abandoned him. As long as there was this point, then other things could be negotiated. And the current situation was, if he was late, the lives of himself and these subordinates would be in danger!
"Don't worry about this matter; tell those people under you not to go out for a period of time recently! Regardless of what happens within this, do not act on your own without my notification."
Regarding the matter of someone coming here to assassinate them, which Vodka was worried about, the person on the other end of the phone was also a bit speechless at this moment. Who would come here for no reason specifically to clean up a group of harmless fellows? If you acted like that, besides alerting the enemy, there was simply no benefit at all. How could those people do such meaningless things? So what if they discovered the listening device? Could it be you can still command the LGD to pursue and capture them?
"You people just honestly stay inside that company; besides cooperating with the LGD to do what should be done, other things will wait until I go there!"
After finishing, the hoarse voice directly hung up the phone, without giving him the slightest opportunity to say another word, leaving only this burly Ursus man staring blankly at his phone. He was also worried that the house Vodka was currently in was still under the opponent's surveillance, so his trip to Lungmen absolutely could not let that idiot casually speak of it. Just as he said, the organization believed in his loyalty to Ursus, but the organization did not believe in this bear's brains. This action also proved that he was still considered excellent as a thug, but letting him lead a team himself was simply a disaster.
On the other side, Vodka, who was considered brain-deficient by his big brother, also understood what his big brother meant by hanging up the phone. After he went out, besides telling everyone to maintain the status quo and not go out, he gave no other instructions. Even if it was Pangolin asking him questions, he did not say anything else. As for the two people sent by the Emperor whom his big brother did not mention, Vodka could only silently pray they could solve their own trouble; anyway, they currently had no capability to help them.
Outside the company, Jeanne and Lemuen got into the car, preparing to leave this place. After coming out, Jeanne scanned the surroundings for a long while and also checked their car to see if anyone had planted a bomb. She clearly remembered that those smuggling fellows should have bombs in their hands; what if they planted one under the car when they weren't paying attention? Jeanne could guarantee her own safety, but she could not guarantee that Lemuen, who was caught in the blast, would also be safe and sound. And this kind of method for people in the dark might not have such high technical difficulty; at a time like this, it was better to be cautious.
Fortunately, after feeling around for a while, Jeanne and Lemuen did not discover any strange things installed on the car.
"Lemuen, take out all those guns you have hidden now! I feel that the road back might not be as safe as when we came."
After getting in the car, Jeanne instructed Lemuen, who was sitting in the back, preparing to face potential battles ahead, in case it was too late to prepare when the time came. Jeanne had a premonition that these people would likely intercept her, a character who discovered listening devices in a short time, on the halfway, taking advantage of Lungmen not being very peaceful recently to make them close their mouths forever.
"Alrighty, I also plan to test the power of the new revolver I got. But should I use rubber bullets or live ammo?"
Regarding potential battles, Lemuen also hoped for their arrival. You must know, since she got this revolver, she hadn't experienced a single real combat yet! However, she also knew that using live ammo in Lungmen, although the power was good, would inevitably result in being caught by the LGD and eating a jail meal later... At that time, she didn't know what the LGD would say about them. But use rubber bullets? Lemuen, thinking that the bullets fired in the first battle of her brand new revolver were actually rubber bullets, felt unwilling no matter what.
Because of this hesitation, Lemuen finally decided to let Jeanne, whom she was supposed to protect closely, make the decision. After all, this revolver was obtained for protecting her.
"Use live ammo! The other party might truly be aiming for our lives this time; if you use rubber bullets, the power might not be enough. It seems I can only apologize to Ch'en later..."
After pondering for a while, Jeanne, seeing Lemuen's eyes almost shining while looking at those live rounds, also made a decision for her. Just didn't know if the things she speculated actually happened in a moment, and after the battle ended and they reported to the LGD, could Ch'en reduce some punishment for the sake of being acquaintances?
Jeanne thought while concentrating on observing the surroundings. Fortunately, for now, no special situation appeared; everything currently looked very normal.
"Alrighty! Then I'll use the other guns in my hand loaded with rubber bullets to shoot first; anyway, the magazines in my hand are considered relatively well-prepared. I'll use the live ammo after the situation deteriorates."
After hearing what Jeanne said, Lemuen, sitting in the back row, enthusiastically loaded her guns with corresponding bullets, and placed the magazines and firearms on the seat, ready at all times. Now on the back seat of the car, there were several firearms loaded with live or rubber bullets, and a revolver with enough live ammo, and a large number of magazines and bullets around it. This situation looked less like preparing for a gunfight and more like an arms dealer displaying weapons here. You must know, if this was placed in some places, this pile of weapons could already launch a small war.
Seeing this, Jeanne also couldn't help but observe a moment of silence for three seconds for the potential enemies ahead. This pile of weapons placed here was simply fully prepared for saturated fire. However, if the Lungmen LGD caught them red-handed, I reckon if the two of them had no backing, they could only sing to the sky with tears while holding iron bars for the rest of their lives.
"Jeanne, turn left at the next intersection, then accelerate forward."
Lemuen, who was observing the vehicles behind, suddenly spoke, making Jeanne, who was observing the surroundings, unable to react for a moment. But she was currently on the road for turning right; wasn't it a bit too late to say it now?
"Forget it, whatever."
Jeanne pressed the accelerator, rushing past quickly while there was still gap on the road beside, and soon arrived on the road for turning right.
"How is it, any discoveries?"
After following Lemuen's words, Jeanne, who continued driving, also asked Lemuen, who was observing the specific situation in the back, about any changes.
"There really is; you might not have noticed anything in front, but there are a few cars just like a relay race following closely behind us, and they did the same just now when you changed lanes. Looking at it this way, it seems we really have a tough battle that needs to be fought."
