Chapter 548: The Safe House Isn't Safe

Inside a Chinese Restaurant, a group of men in black were holding the Restaurant owner's entire family hostage.

Including the Restaurant owner, Xiao Jiang, everyone was covered in cold sweat.

Because these people all had guns in their hands; one look and it was clear they were the desperate, outlaw type.

At this moment, a lackey in charge of equipment said to the leading man, "Big Brother, the call lasted twenty-seven seconds. We can lock onto the city block!"

The leading man immediately revealed a smile and patted the Restaurant owner on the shoulder!

Meanwhile, on Xiao Ma's side, he suddenly felt that something was wrong: "He kept saying his Restaurant business was booming, but it's mealtime right now, so why is it so quiet?"

Xiao Ma pondered for a moment, then took his daughter, Chu Yi, and walked out of the room.

As he walked, Xiao Ma muttered to himself, analyzing: "The call with him took twenty-seven seconds; if I go down now, I'll run right into them."

Thinking of this, Xiao Ma searched the hotel with his daughter.

He spent money to buy some bottled fuel, gas canisters, and a dilapidated microwave, then returned to the room.

Afterward, Xiao Ma turned on the gas canister, lit it, and hung two bottles of solid fuel on the door handle.

He checked his watch to time it, then threw the other two bottles into the microwave.

Finally, he tied bedsheets together and threw them down from the balcony.

After finishing all this, he carried his daughter into the bathroom and waited quietly for the pursuers to arrive.

At the same time, the pursuers had already arrived downstairs at the hotel.

Leading them was that man who looked like a Xiaomianhu.

He issued orders to his subordinates: "Search it floor by floor!"

But at this moment, a cold-faced woman followed up.

Xiaomianhu said directly, "You don't need to go up."

The woman said coldly, "I have no need to take orders from you!"

Xiaomianhu shook his head: "If it weren't for Ms. Cangjing doting on you so much, you wouldn't be this presumptuous, would you? Huh? I don't buy that act of yours!"

"Your junior fellow apprentice, Guiyan, can't even beat Shi Yijian's disciple, so I don't think you're necessarily any better!" The woman spoke up and exposed Xiaomianhu's weakness directly.

A flash of murderous intent crossed Xiaomianhu's eyes, but it quickly faded, and he continued smiling as he said, "If you weren't a woman, you'd be dead by now! You stay here, we're going up!"

Having said that, he couldn't be bothered to waste words with her and led his men up to the hotel floor.

Xiaomianhu searched floor by floor and soon arrived at the door of Xiao Ma's room.

The moment his subordinates opened the door, the bottles of solid fuel had already been deformed by the heat of the gas canister's flames.

As two lackeys pulled at it, an explosion occurred instantly.

And the explosion of the solid fuel triggered the explosion of the gas canister.

In an instant, like a bomb of terrifying power, the flames shattered the door and the two people at the entrance.

It also swept through the entire room.

Such an explosion left Xiaomianhu's subordinates shaken.

But Xiaomianhu roared with an ugly expression: "What are you looking at? Get in there!"

The subordinates had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush inside.

The room was filled with smoke; the subordinates searched for a moment and found the bedsheets that had fallen to the floor on the balcony.

At this moment, they happened to see a father and daughter riding a motorcycle, quickly leaving the hotel area.

"Boss, they've run away!" the subordinate said to Xiaomianhu while clutching the bedsheets.

But before they could finish speaking, the solid fuel inside the microwave also expanded to its limit and triggered a small explosion on the spot.

The two people standing on the balcony were blown right off the floor.

Xiaomianhu let out a cold snort and immediately took his men to pursue them downstairs.

By this time, the cold-faced woman from before had already caught up to the father and daughter on her own motorcycle.

Unfortunately, the people she found were not Xiao Ma and his daughter.

Because Xiao Ma and his daughter were wearing the most popular parent-child outfits in Siam, just to keep a low profile.

In a fit of rage, the woman opened fire on the father and daughter.

After drawing all the pursuers away, Xiao Ma quickly evacuated with his daughter.

For an accountant to be able to do this much, it could already be considered quite impressive.

Unfortunately, as soon as they got downstairs, the father and daughter were surrounded by a group of people.

And stepping out of the vehicles was a group of Interpol agents.

"Interpol. For your safety, Mr. Ma, come with us!" the lead Interpol agent said to Xiao Ma.

Since they were already blocked, Xiao Ma got into the car quite readily.

Afterward, the vehicles sped away from the city and arrived at a Zhuangyuan beside a river.

This Zhuangyuan was very luxurious, but it had no owner, because it was an Interpol contact point.

After Interpol found Xiao Ma, they immediately began the interrogation.

And the one interrogating was actually an acquaintance: Shi Yijian's disciple, Xiao Leng.

"What are you doing in Siam?" Xiao Leng looked down at Xiao Ma and said.

Xiao Ma said with an indifferent expression: "Traveling! Just having fun!"

"So many people are taking guns to have fun with you?" Xiao Leng didn't believe it at all and continued to press him.

"Maybe it's because I'm handsome!"

Xiao Leng decided not to beat around the bush with him anymore and said directly: "D. O. A. Chief Accountant, in control of 15 billion US dollars, Mr. Gao is your cousin, right?"

"I'm just an accountant," Xiao Ma said, lowering his head.

"Where is the 15 billion?" Xiao Leng asked. This was Xiao Ma's protective talisman, so naturally, he wouldn't hand it over easily; instead, he gave an irrelevant answer: "15 billion, how many zeros are there?"

Xiao Leng pressed both hands against the table and said with a cold expression, "I'm telling you, don't try any tricks with me! We know everything!"

At this moment, Xiao Ma suddenly began to convulse all over, and then white foam kept spilling from his mouth.

It looked just like an epileptic seizure.

This gave the other Interpol officers a fright, and they immediately rushed into the room, intending to provide emergency aid to Xiao Ma.

"Should we send him to the hospital?" an Interpol officer asked.

Xiao Leng sneered and said, "He just wants to go to the hospital!"

As he spoke, Xiao Leng walked to Xiao Ma's side and also collapsed, convulsing all over; the white foam spraying from the corners of his mouth was even more than Xiao Ma's!

Xiao Ma was instantly stunned and could only stand up helplessly.

Xiao Leng wiped the foam from the corners of his mouth and said unhappily, "If you weren't an accountant, you could really be a movie star!"

Acting clearly wasn't working, and Xiao Leng couldn't bring himself to force a confession through torture, so he could only control Xiao Ma for now.

Xiao Ma wandered around the Safe House, looking everywhere, and then said to the Interpol team leader Yang Pengyun, "So this is the Safe House?"

"That's right!" Yang Pengyun nodded.

But Xiao Ma said with a look of disdain, "It doesn't look safe at all!"

Yang Pengyun was instantly angered to the point of laughter: "We have the most advanced communication equipment and surveillance systems here, with over a dozen heavily armed guards inside and out. Our walls have been reinforced, there's a bunker, and the facilities are this complete—is this still not enough?"

Xiao Ma said while eating instant noodles, "It should be fine against ordinary criminals, but D. O. A is an international criminal organization, and they recently bought a lot of military equipment! The firepower of some of their firearms can pierce twenty-inch-thick titanium plates; you have to treat them like the U. S. military to stand a chance!"

Xiao Leng was very annoyed by Xiao Ma's tone: "What exactly did you come to Siam for?"

Xiao Ma replied, "To find my old classmate."

Yang Pengyun said in a deep voice, "Today in Patpong, a restaurant owner and his family of four, plus the staff, were all killed. The boss's surname was Jiang."

Xiao Ma said in a somewhat low tone, "It was me who implicated him!" "What is your purpose in coming here?" Xiao Leng continued to ask: "It won't do you any good if you don't say!"

Xiao Ma also got a bit angry: "Good? You only gave me instant noodles; what kind of good do you want? And as for me, I have fifteen billion U. S. dollars!"

"Do you have the life to spend it?" Xiao Leng retorted.

"Are you trying to scare me?" Xiao Ma said unhappily: "Within three hours, they will definitely take action; you guys better hold out first before saying anything else!"

After saying this, Xiao Ma went to see his daughter.

……

At this time, outside the Safe House.

Xiaomianhu and the others led a large group of troops to infiltrate the perimeter of the Safe House, and subsequently, a large quantity of arms was transported over.

Although they had been played by Xiao Ma, they did not intend to give up.

Even if Interpol had caught Xiao Ma, it was the same.

After all, it wasn't as if D. O. A hadn't dealt with Interpol before.

They had no law enforcement authority in Siam and even needed to rely on the assistance of local Siamese police.

As for the local Siamese police? They were simply a joke.

Xiaomianhu checked his watch, ready to act at any moment.

It was just that they hadn't discovered that another group of people was following them.

That's right, the people who came were the boss of Guojun Security Company, Ya Qi! After Ya Qi received the order from Chen Jiajun, he followed the D. O. A people all the way.

He didn't expect that they would actually find Xiao Ma.

However, Ya Qi did not act rashly, as this guy Xiao Ma didn't look honest at all.

Ya Qi had seen with his own eyes how he had toyed with the D. O. A people back at the Bangkok hotel.

This kind of person wouldn't trust anyone but himself; even if they caught Xiao Ma, it wasn't certain they could gain his trust.

So Ya Qi was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the moment when Xiao Ma was at his most desperate to step in and help.

In this way, it would be much easier for both sides to talk.

"Boss, these guys' equipment is quite decent!" a minor demon slave said to Ya Qi: "It's all standard-issue U. S. military gear!"

Ya Qi smiled and said, "What's the use of good equipment? It still depends on the person! Even if you give them an Artifact, they won't be able to make much of a splash!"

The minor demon slave nodded and chuckled, "And this is also delivering equipment to us! This standard-issue U. S. military gear isn't cheap!"

A moment later, under the command of Xiaomianhu.

This group of mercenaries began to move.

After these guys observed the surveillance equipment of the Safe House, they slowly waded into the river water.

They waded across step by step, aiming to quietly approach within the opponent's defensive line.

Only by infiltrating the Interpol's defensive line could they prevent the target from escaping through the emergency exit.

After a mercenary wearing camouflage uniform went ashore, he first used a silenced Handgun to take out the Interpol's visible and hidden sentries.

Seeing their nimble movements, they were clearly not ordinary people.

Once they infiltrated the interior of the Zhuangyuan, the snipers in the distance finally opened fire.

They shot and killed the sentries at high positions that the mercenary squad couldn't handle.

Since the shots had been fired, the mercenaries no longer needed to hide; they kicked open the gate of the Zhuangyuan and rushed in. Whenever they saw someone, they would fire a burst.

In just a moment, the inside of the Zhuangyuan was filled with the sound of gunfire.

Only after the mercenaries shot out all the cameras did the Interpol officers inside the Zhuangyuan react.

"We have a situation!" the Interpol officer in charge of the monitoring equipment shouted loudly and pressed the emergency button.

Instantly, the alarm sounds and red lights inside the Zhuangyuan intertwined.

Xiao Ma realized something was wrong and immediately found his daughter, preparing to evacuate with the Interpol officers.

And at this time, the mercenaries had completely abandoned all caution, even using RPGs.

A rocket trailing smoke directly hit the house inside the Zhuangyuan, instantly blasting out a large Tai Hang.

The mercenaries who followed behind filed in one after another, picking off the fully armed Interpol officers one by one.

Seeing that the interior of the Zhuangyuan was already in the heat of battle, Ya Qi took a pair of binoculars to observe for a moment, then said to the Information Officer under his command: "Have you found out where the bunker inside the Zhuangyuan leads to?"

The Information Officer tapped away at the keyboard continuously, and soon a blueprint was pulled up.

After observing it for a moment, he pointed to a spot on the river and said: "They have an underground passage that leads directly over there!"

Ya Qi nodded and said with a smile: "Alright, let's start our operation too!"

The members of Guojun Security Company were not numerous, numbering only a dozen or so.

But facing these ordinary mercenaries, it was already more than enough.

Ya Qi and the others moved with the speed of flying, and soon arrived at the entrance the Information Officer had found.

"Everyone look around and see where their entrance is!" Ya Qi waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to start searching.

But not long after, Ya Qi's ears suddenly twitched: "Wait, everyone come back!"

"Boss, what's wrong?" a Young Demon Slave said to Ya Qi.

Ya Qi led his subordinates to retreat quickly into the dense forest, then whispered: "Someone is coming!"

Just as Ya Qi's voice fell, Xiaomianhu walked over with his subordinates.

They held the blueprints in their hands and quickly found the entrance to the tunnel.

After prying open a sewage outlet, Xiaomianhu shot the person who had led the way for them, then took a few subordinates into the bunker.

"Heh heh, that really saved us the trouble of looking!" Ya Qi said with a cold laugh.

……

On the other side, the mercenaries had invaded the main rooms of the Zhuangyuan.

The powerful firepower made it impossible for the Interpol officers to even lift their heads.

It confirmed Xiao Ma's words exactly; these mercenaries were practically on par with United States troops.

The Police Constables under his command were simply no match for these mercenaries.

With no other choice, Yang Pengyun and Xiao Leng could only take Xiao Ma and his daughter into the bunker.

The bunker stored quite a lot of equipment and supplies.

These Interpol officers immediately put them on, and even Xiao Ma found a few bulletproof vests for himself and his daughter to wear.

After getting all this done, Xiao Leng handed over a Bujiang.

But Xiao Ma shook his head: "I don't know how to use a gun!"

However, Xiao Ma's gaze soon landed on the crates of explosives nearby, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

He packed up some explosives and said to Xiao Leng: "Where do we go now?"

Xiao Leng said hurriedly: "Once we go through the tunnel, we'll be at the woods!"

"How far is it?"

"About one thousand meters!"

"One thousand meters? The range of an M96 is already one thousand five hundred meters; this is a recipe for suicide! We might as well walk out the front gate and negotiate with them!" After hearing this, Xiao Ma's face immediately fell, and he said to Xiao Leng. (End of chapter)
