Chapter 16: Seal off the Residential Area

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Everyone, wait a minute. Please open the door for us to enter. After that, please leave immediately.”

Just as Smith got out of the car and was about to enter the residential area, he was stopped by a person.

“Who are you people? Why aren’t you letting us in?” said the leader of the construction area unhappily.

“You have no right to know my identity. Now, please open the door.”

The special personnel was very tough.

After hearing the special personnel refusing to disclose their identities, no one said anything further.

After all, they were not fools. They were only two kinds of people who dared to speak in such a manner. The first was people who knew fools and wanted to exert their dominance.

If they were caught, they would definitely be taken to the police station.

The second type of people were those with power and belonged to a special department.

The result would be very tragic if they still chose to force their way in after encountering such people.

Therefore, the situation was at a stalemate. They could not just leave because of the other party.

At the same time, the leader of the investigators rushed over.

They did not understand what was going on either.

To be honest, when the investigators obtained the map of the area the night before, they had already known of the existence of the transfer housing complex.

However, no one paid any attention to it. They had completely ignored the existence of the estate.

If it was not for Smith, no one would know how long they might have overlooked this area.

“This place has been taken over by the special department. You guys should leave quickly,” the leader gave the order. He had no time for nonsense.

“Yes, yes, yes. We’ll leave now.”

The regional leader’s forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Even a fool would know that something big was happening there.

If they did not run at that moment, when would they run?

Aside from Smith, the convoy that arrived earlier had all left.

The borders of the residential area had also been put up. The special personnel entered the residential area to check the situation.

They wanted to see if the group of mercenaries were still in the residential area.

After a while, the special personnel returned and indicated that the eight mercenaries were still inside.

Once they found the people, the other matters would be easier to handle.

Since there were no ordinary people in the residential area, they could just proceed with the ambush without any worries.

Within five minutes, the entire residential area was surrounded and was impenetrable.

The snipers, battle teams, and assault teams were all in position.

“Citizens, please leave immediately. A battle drill is about to begin! In order to avoid any accidental injuries, please leave immediately! Please don’t stand around and watch!”

The security personnel set up a quarantine zone in the neighborhood.

They also evacuated the surrounding crowd.

Smith who was also a bystander, was chased away.

“Keep Smith here because this place was built by his company. He should be very familiar with the situation inside,” said the leader of the investigation team.

Smith looked at the leader of the investigation team.

He did not understand why the leader wanted to keep him there.

It was not possible to deceive Smith. He knew that there was going to be a fight. 

The residential area had not been triggered yet.

However, with such a large formation, a fight was bound to occur.

“Smith, please come with us.”

Smith had a helpless look on his face when he was invited by the two special personnel to tag along. He was the only ordinary person in the command car. The others were all-powerful people.

They were not interested in Smith. After they located the eight mercenaries, they began to arrange people to prepare for the ambush.

“Commander, according to the infrared scan, we confirm that there are no other people in the building. There are only the eight mercenaries.”

“Very good. Start the ambush immediately.”

There was nothing more to say after they learned that no one else was in the building. They charged in directly.

The plan was carried out quickly. The special team entered the building and waited for the next command to attack.

“Sniper No. 1 has locked onto the target!”

“Sniper No. 2 has locked onto the target!”

“Sniper No. 3 has locked onto the target!”

The 3 snipers each locked onto a mercenary. They were waiting for the order to fire.

“The special team is ready. They are outside the room. They are ready to attack at any time.”

The commander looked at his watch and said, “Countdown: 10 seconds, 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1! Fire!”

“Bang!”

The guns were fired at the same time.

As the shots were synchronized, it sounded like only one gun was fired.

At the same time, the special team kicked the door, and the people behind rushed in.

The next second, everyone was stunned.

The three bullets hit the glass and bounced off.

On the other side, they kicked the door hard, but the door did not open.

The ambush failed!

“Report! The rooms are made up of super-high-strength bulletproof glass! The plan has failed!”

“Report! The doors of their rooms are all top-notch security doors! The special team can’t break them open! I hope the other team can help!”

In the command car, Smith was very embarrassed.

“Damn it! Why is the glass of an ordinary residential area bulletproof? Which developer developed this?” said the commander in exasperation.

Smith looked up into the sky. He did not know what to say.

“Mr. Smith, was the building in this residential area built by your company? Can I know how strong the glass is?” asked the leader of the investigation team.

As the building was built by Smith, he knew that it must be very strange.

However, he did not expect that the building was so strange that bulletproof glass would be installed.

“I can’t say for sure, but the glass would be impenetrable if a gun was used,” said Smith. He was embarrassed.

“Then what should we use?”

“C-4 bomb? If it doesn’t work, you can try a missile?” said Smith whilst smiling.
