Chapter 183: A monster underneath the human skin

White Moon's chest was pierced by a hand, destroying the ribcage and her rupturing the lungs while the heart was captured by Scarlet's right hand.

She has a wide smile on her face as she pressed Koharu's heart.

At that moment, Koharu saw the shadow of a devil behind her and realized she f****d up.

"Who… *Cough* are … You…" These are the last words she was able to speak before the hand crushed the heart and Scarlet spoke in a cold tone, looking at a dead body, "let's just say, I'm a monster."

She pulled out her hand that's filled with blood and casually wiped it off with Koharu's jacket.

Then, as the image of her husband and her words appeared in her mind, she mumbled with a frown, "Nicholson? Looks like Scott is hiding something from me."

*Beep*Beep*

She took the walkie-talkie from the ground and pressed the button.

"White Moon, did you send the address? Over." Shin asked her for confirmation.

"No, I'm thinking of changing it to some other place," Scarlet replied to him in Koharu's place, mimicking her tone perfectly.

As expected, Shin didn't realize it and thought she was changing the place, just because they had an argument, a moment ago.

"But, the entire police department is out there on the roads. That ba****d Ravens went all out to rescue his mother. It's impossible to shift her to somewhere else. This is the safest place," Shin tried to reason with her.

'Hmm, it looks like I still have a chance to connect with Wil…' It's the first thing that popped up in her mind, after hearing about the police.

"No, the hostage will stay here," Scarlet replied with a firm tone. "Listen carefully. You will meet Nicholson at the bar on Evergreen Street. It's a hidden location operated by the Viper gang.

Go to the first floor with a password, 'the snake's strongest power isn't poison but the ability to slip away.' Don't say it but type it in the mobile phone and show it to the guards."

Shin felt something amiss as the supposed Koharu called Scarlet as the hostage, instead of the package but he quickly threw it in the back of his mind as Scarlet continued to tell her plan. 

"Book any private room there. No one cares what you do, there whether it's torture, murder, rape, etc… They'll clean up, afterward as long as you pay a hundred thousand dollars.

But, remember. First, money. After that, you are free to do as you wish.

We'll do the same with Ravens. Except that you'll take a C4 with you and install it in the same room, instead of here.

As soon as they enter the bar, boom…. Hahaha…" 

She even imitated the way White Moon laughs and completely convinced Shin.

He didn't ask what to do with Scarlet, since he knew his rival never leaves the hostages alive even after the deal is done.

Disconnecting the call, Scarlet searched Koharu's pockets and took out the mobile phone and a remote, "this girl is really rotten to the core. Even thinking of betraying her partner after the job is done. Don't worry, I'll send your partner to you."

"No one messes with my family and live longer…"

Meanwhile, General Daniel Cooper and Wil are in a video call.

After hearing out Wil's reason for asking the army, General Daniel said, "You wish to wipe them out, right? I can send a special unit. They have the highest success rate in rescue operations with an outstanding 96% in the past ten years.

After rescuing her, trust me, none of them will make out alive."

Upon hearing him, especially the last part made even Silver shudder for a moment as he sensed the killing intent even though his words are completely calm.

Only a person who killed a lot of people has this kind of effect despite not talking to them in person.

Of course, only a person who had taken a lot of lives can sense it.

On the other hand, he also thought Wil was incredible to deal with this kind of situation in calmness.

Whether it's because it's his nature or it's because he doesn't have an emotional connection with Scarlet, it's unclear.

Since the party is his future son-in-law and the other party is a Mafia, General Daniel Cooper didn't feel necessary to offer negotiation.

Wil shook his head in response, "that won't do, General."

"Why?" An immediate rejection made him frown.

"It's because I'm a businessman and a gamer, not a killer." Wil reminded him that he wasn't his dad and they were no longer Mafia anymore. "We'll just overwhelm with the numbers and give them a chance to surrender to the police and return her."

"What if they don't?"

Wil shakes his head and replies, "Only heroes in movies risks their life and fight the impossible battle. If you want to crush someone, crush with all the strength so that they won't dare to stand up against us. If they still wish to be foolish, then, it's on them."

After finishing the video call, Daniel sighed in relief, "this boy isn't like the Mafia Lord."

Dialing a number, he mumbled, "My eldest always thinks the best… It's been a while since I last saw them. I wonder if I should make a trip to Ares City."

He doesn't know that he might be sending a battalion for nothing.

Meanwhile, Wil sighed in relief, after receiving the promise from his future father-in-law.

As there's nothing else he can do, Wil stayed in the hotel room and watched the news channel that was already been escalated by the media.

None of the police is willing to open their mouths to the media following the orders from their superiors who received a severe warning from Walter Rodin, the Police Chief while he passed the orders.

The City council is bombarding questions upon the Mayor while the city commissioner isn't willing to tell him the reason, just putting the blame on Rodin.

"Silver, call the City commissioner that he should inform the news channels that a group of terrorists entered the city and the police are searching for them.

It also gives a perfect reason for us to surround the Viper gang in the name of sheltering the terrorists. 

After the matter is finished, blast some abandoned building with a C-4, and tell everyone that the terrorists are dead. Even Ashes aren't found.

Inform this to Uncle Rodin, General Cooper, and as well as Ms. Kiyumi so that they won't be confused by the news later."

"Understood, Young Master," Silver nodded, once again getting amazed by Wil's wits.

Wil thought everything was set into motion and waited for the final step.

And that moment finally arrives 15 minutes, later.

Silver gets a call from HQ.

"What! You found the location? Where? Okay, send the image, now." Silver's words made Wil stood up from the sofa and turned towards him.

As Silver disconnected the call, he said, "Our boys found her."

Opening the messaging app, he showed the picture to Wil, "this image was captured, an hour ago. After that, there was no picture of her, again."

Two unfamiliar people are carrying Scarlet.

"What's this place?" Wil asked about the location.

Silver replied, "It's the old district of Eran. The earthquake back in 2007 left it in the ruins and most of the buildings are abandoned. They chose a perfect place to hide her."

"It doesn't seem like Viper Gang is involved, does it?" Wil raised a certain point.
