184 Why I Became A Contractor: Part 22 (2/2)
”Acknowledged.” I ran to the nearest elevator to get to the 18th floor quicker. The target should be in the room. I pushed myself to the elevator and pressed the button of the elevator as hard as I could.
The elevator went down from the 30th floor. The elevator wasn't quick, but it was decent enough for me to wait while being shot by bunches of special force soldiers.
The elevator door opened and I entered the elevator. There was this one civilian on the elevator that immediately pissed himself off once bullets were fired at me.
However, I didn't have time to care about a man pissing his pants. Right now, the target was my priority. I pressed the 18th-floor button and the door of the elevator immediately closed. The number on top of the door went up gradually from 15-18. Once the door of the elevator rang and opened, I rushed outside of the elevator.
I expected the Spetsnaz to be there and I was glad that I was wrong. The sorts as wasn't there yet and I would have a lot of time to search for the VIP who was hiding on that floor. I turned left to the hallway of the apartment and read the numbers in front of the door one by one.
The first room number was 801. It meant that there would be eight rooms before I got to the room number 809. I immediately ran while reading those numbers loudly.
I finally arrived in front of a wooden door with number 809. I didn't want to panic him, I knocked on the door first although the urgency should disallow that action. I knocked on the door multiple times, but there was no response.
I was impatient, I kicked the door and gained entry to that room forcefully. I saw a man inside that bedroom with a woman. There were packing their things inside of a suitcase. The guesses were right, they were the VIP that I was looking for.
”Ma'am, sir, we have to leave immediately. The Spetsnaz wants you dead.” I carried those suitcases in my hands and all of us walked to the elevator.
As we walked in the hallway, I prayed that none of the Spetsnaz found the note and searched for us on this floor. I was immediately stunned when I reached the elevator safely. I pressed the button and the elevator door was immediately opened since nobody was using it besides me.
All of us entered the elevator and I pressed the button to enter the basement of the building where there were lots of cars that could be used for escaping.
”Echo, go to the basement with your car. I'm with the VIP, ETA is two minutes.” The elevator went down to the basement.
The VIP was a couple judging from how their relations were. They might be a spy, but asking their occupation wasn't my job nor I wanted to do it. The elevator arrived in the basement and the door opened.
We would wait for a Chevrolet to enter the basement and pick us up. The echo would be there in two minutes and we would get out.
He fulfilled his promise and he came to the basement with his car that was badly shot by the Spetsnaz. We entered the car and I put the suitcases inside the back of the car.
I entered the passenger seat and echo hit the gas as hard as he could. He drove through the barricade that the Spetsnaz placed and we got out of that apartment complex. The mission would be a success if we brought them to a hangar located at the airport.
However, as far as I was concerned, the hard part was over. I put my back on the chair of the car and relaxed as Echo drove the car to the airport. The couple seemed ok to me since none of them were hurt. The mission was a success.
