Chapter 269 - El Sandrios (1/2)

Suyin looked at the blonde woman warily, her hands reached for the poisonous dagger inside her knee-length boots.

Before coming here she had transformed herself completely. There's no way someone could recognize her in this avatar.

She had shaved her long hair, supporting a bald head. The spiked shoes, multiple piercings, and the hideous dragon tattoo peeking from the collar of her black shirt ending on her cheek made her look like the type of person parents advise their kids to stay away from.

Her overcoat and trousers were baggy to hide her voluminous b.r.e.a.s.t and feminine figure. She had ditched her contacts, replacing them with the geekiest and widest glasses found on the shelf. Her lips chapped. Her natural complexion covered under dark shade of foundation, and her eyes baggy. Well.... the bags under were natural. Curtsey sleeplessness.

When you are sneaking inside a country that belongs to your enemy and with no doc.u.ments, you get to change your looks.

”I'm sure you don't need that.” The woman said pausing in her steps. ”Whatever that thing is in your boots. You don't have to use it on me. I'm harmless.”

Suyin curled her fingers around the dagger, not trusting the woman who had look through her facade.

The woman smiled, ”You have his eyes and features. How can I not recognize you? He had once shown me a picture of his kids.”

”Ma Roma?”

”It is,” Suyin withdrew her hand from the dagger, scooting uncomfortably as the woman joined her on the floor. ”Sorry we couldn't meet before. I was busy with the crew.”

The ship Suyin was using as a medium to cross the border belongs to this blonde woman and her four sons. It was her eldest son who had received Suyin while boarding it.

Zhao Shu was somehow acquainted with Ma Roma and asked her to help Suyin cross the border. To him, the woman was trustworthy and can prove to be a great asset at the time of need. Though Suyin doesn't know how this woman can help her?

”We are about to reach. My son will help you in the city--”

”No need. I'll manage.”

”You can't young lady. Trust me. Though I don't know what reason you have to enter El Sandrios secretly, you must know the country is anything but safe. There's a constant clash between militias for the power over the country.”

(El Sandrios is the name of the fictional country I created)

As if Suyin doesn't know. Since El Sandrios' independence in 2005, the country is in chaos because of two militia groups headed by different leaders (who took part in the independence movement) seeking control over the nation.

Instead of getting a bright future after overthrowing and killing its oppressive dictator, the country's situation turned worse after independence in the absence of an organized military and government.

But who cares? Suyin had no interest in this politics but only care about the man named Alpha running a secret organ trafficking racket from there. Let's leave politics to the politicians.

”No need to be concerned. You are not my mother.”

”I'm not. But had something happened to you in my presence, I won't be able to face Shu.”
