Chapter 273 - TOO FRUSTRATING (1/2)
The helicopter descended on a small airstrip outside the coastal area. Zhong Feng and Kaito did not know where to look first. While they had the clue about Rocky Dock, they could not go there after arrival and hope the best.
Moreover, if they were too early in their arrival, they would raise suspicions, and the other party might disappear before they could get anything.
After all, a low-level mercenary would not be able to get from the city to the coast except in a car.
Currently, they had no way to determine the location or identity of the ship which they theorised was waiting for Hu Lei.
”Are we going to search for Hu Lei in a two-man team?” Kaito asked sceptically after they stepped out of the chopper.
Zhong Feng smiled. ”Of course not. We will have help.”
They walked across the large open area before Zhong Feng led Kaito to a closed hangar. He knocked on the door three times before stepping back.
There was no response for a while. Then, the large door opened.
What happened next was not within their expectations. The ten or so people in the room turned to the pair and pointed guns at Kaito.
”Put your hands in the air. Do not resist, or I swear, I will shoot.” The tall man with deep blue eyes spoke while looking at Kaito.
Kaito looked at Zhong Feng to determine if he had betrayed him, but his cold eyes showed that he had nothing to do with this turn of event.
However, he was the one who had led them to this place. He had to know something about this matter.
”If it is not my old friend Kristian...” Kaito put away his doubts and smiled at the man.
”I have been looking for you, and you have delivered yourself to my door.” Kristian laughed coldly.
”You must Agent Kristian Larsen.” Zhong Feng said.
The people in the converted hangar finally looked at the other man.
”Mr Zhong, I apologise for this turn of events, but this man must be apprehended.” The agent had an unyielding look in his eyes.
”Agent Larsen, I am sure that you have been briefed by your superior about the importance and urgency of the situation. Moreover, Kaito is not to be touched before my wife is safely back. And as far as I know, Kaito is only on a watch list. There is no outstanding warrant for arrest.” Zhong Feng had a sharp look in his eyes.
As an Interpol agent, Kristian had met all kinds of people, but he knew those that should not be messed with. And this man was one of them.
Of course, he had been briefed about the situation with Zhong Feng's wife, but he could not get over seeing Kaito walking around freely like there was not a worry in the world. How could he calm down and work with a criminal?
However, he also remembered that it was not easy to become a member of the special task force in Interpol. He had been a simple police officer in Halden, and he had caught the eye of the brass in Interpol.
He loved his hometown, but now, he had seen more of the world.
He was not willing to go back to the perfect life in Norway. He wanted more.
