Chapter 1840: Both Individuals Are Trapped
On the other side, Felix, in order to rescue Vicki as soon as possible, discussed a detailed plan with Mr.
Ball.
They were concerned that Cloud might move their base and that Athena might join forces with Cloud,
making it even more difficult to rescue Vicki. Felix set the plan in motion for tonight at midnight.
To avoid alerting anyone prematurely, the total number of people involved in the operation was limited
to eight. Apart from Felix and Mr. Ball, there were six elite individuals, each with exceptional skills,
comparable to top special forces. According to the blueprints, they had concealed themselves in the
vicinity of the semi-basement in advance.
The night was silent, except for the occasional chirping of insects, engulfing the surroundings in
stillness.
Although it was a semi-basement, there was no trace of light inside.
Waiting anxiously, Felix couldn't help but feel impatient. "Are you sure Vicki is here? Nothing around
here seems quite right. Most importantly, there are no lights, it doesn't look like someone is living here."
Mr. Ball explained, "Mr. Saunders, don't worry. I've had people investigate for a long time and confirmed
that it is indeed inhabitable. It's just that the place is well-hidden, so it's hard to notice. You're right, it
does appear to lack lights. However, there's a special film that, when applied, makes it impossible to
see inside even if the lights are on. Sometimes, even my own hideouts use this method."
Felix nodded, "Alright, I understand."
At that moment, a figure in black suddenly emerged from the semi-basement, followed closely by
another. The two individuals cautiously made their way out, looking left and right to ensure no one wasnovelbin
around before entering the alley. They were carrying bags, obviously intending to dispose of
something.
Felix quickly hid behind a wall to avoid exposing himself. Mr. Ball even pulled him further into the alley.
At the same time, Felix made a "shh" gesture, signaling the others not to move.
This was a rare opportunity. Someone came out, and soon someone else would go in, making it less
likely to attract attention.
Felix carefully observed the two individuals in black. They were fully armed, even wearing black head
coverings, only revealing their eyes. It was impossible to know who was beneath the masks.
He nudged Mr. Ball and whispered in his ear, "I have an idea. Let's follow these two individuals in black.
Once we've knocked them out and tied them up, we can disguise ourselves as them and infiltrate."
Mr. Ball was somewhat surprised, "Isn't that too dangerous? What if we get trapped by the people
inside? The ones outside won't be able to rescue us. Both of us would be compromised."
Felix tapped Mr. Ball's head, "Are you afraid of death?"
Mr. Ball's eyes widened, "I'm not afraid of death. I'm just stating the facts. Right now, everyone is
relying on the two of us to lead. If both of us get caught at the same time, what do you think will
happen? Or how about this, I'll go in with someone else while you stay outside. Isn't that better? It's not
like I'm afraid of death."
Felix pondered for a moment and thought Mr. Ball had a point.
"Alright, let's bring Wu Hao, who is the most skilled among the people we brought. You stay outside. If
there's any trouble, I'll send you a signal through Bluetooth. But if I don't send a signal within half an
hour, you bring the others in. How about that?" Felix suggested.
Mr. Ball shook his head, "No, it should be me going in. Mr. Saunders, if you get caught, things will
escalate. Your sister-in-law is not here, and neither are you. The whole Saunders family will be in
chaos. As for me, it won't matter if they capture me. I'll find a way to escape on my own."
Felix frowned, "I've already made up my mind. Don't argue anymore. If you waste more time, those two
will leave. I must see Vicki as soon as possible; otherwise, I won't be at ease."
"Alright, alright. I can't persuade you." Mr. Ball had no choice but to agree.
As they spoke, the two of them had quietly approached behind the individuals in black.
The two individuals in black were beside a secluded trash bin, disposing of the garbage they had
brought out from inside. Their goal was to eliminate any evidence of their presence in the basement.
They whispered to each other.
"What's the relationship between that woman and the boss? It seems like the boss treats her very
well."
"More than just well, it's unbelievable. You don't know, that day I saw her almost kill theboss. She held
a pen to his jugular vein, with a professional posture and technique. That move could have been fatal.
But the boss didn't even flinch."
"So why does the boss keep her? And why does he provide her with good food and drink every day?
It's risky. I heard there are many people looking for her outside. Having her with us could expose us at
any moment."
"Obviously, the boss likes that woman. We better not meddle in matters above us. Let's focus on our
own tasks. Otherwise, if we anger those above us, we're as good as dead."
"Yeah, who can argue with that?"
The two of them chatted quietly, unaware of the danger closing in behind them.
Suddenly, Mr. Ball and Felix swiftly took action. With two consecutive thuds, the two individuals in black
rolled their eyes, unable to utter a sound before falling heavily to the ground, unconscious.
Mr. Ball and Felix exchanged glances.
At that moment, Wu Hao caught up with them.
Mr. Ball skillfully removed the clothes from the two individuals, then covered their mouths with duct tape
and tied their hands and feet together, rendering them immobile. They dragged the two individuals
deep into the alley, hiding them away.
Meanwhile, Felix and Wu Hao quickly changed into the clothes of the individuals in black.
After the change, only their eyes were visible, making it impossible to discern their identities.
They nodded at each other, silently communicating.
Mr. Ball approached them, lowering his voice, "The woman they mentioned earlier is likely your sister-
in-law. So my judgment was correct. She is indeed here. Tonight, no matter what, we must rescue her."
Wu Hao solemnly nodded.
When the two individuals in black mentioned Vicki earlier, Felix felt slightly relieved. At least Vicki
wasn't in immediate danger. Moreover, he heard them mention Vicki's actions against Cloud, which
indicated that she didn't deceive him as ruthlessly as she claimed. He firmly believed that they had
feelings for each other.
Just as Felix and Wu Hao were about to turn and leave.
Mr. Ball suddenly grabbed their arms.
"What now? Do you have something else to say?" Felix furrowed his brow. Time was running out, and
Mr. Ball kept delaying.
"I just remembered something. The signal in this semi-basement will be blocked. What if you two go in
later and can't contact me? What should we do?" Mr. Ball expressed his concern.
