Chapter 4456 - 4456 The Other Side 425
4456 The Other Side 425
The three hostages were in danger!
Before Gong Jie could react, the mercenaries behind him pinned him to the ground and covered him with their bodies.
On the other side, Jim’s mercenaries immediately raised their guns!
Tututututu…
!!Tatata…
Sparks flew in all directions! From time to time, the sound of bullets piercing through flesh could be heard.
Gong Jie groaned as he felt a bullet in his back.
Amidst the sparks, the close combat lasted for a minute. In just a minute, the mercenaries on Jim’s side were completely annihilated under the fierce attack of Gong Jie’s mercenaries. In the blink of an eye, the port was drenched in blood. They could not withstand a single blow!
Gong Jie stood up and heaved a sigh of relief. He took off his bulletproof vest, pulled out a bullet casing from the back, and threw it on the ground. Because of the protection of the bulletproof vest, he suffered only an abrasion. Jim had been mowed to the ground.
As Gong Jie walked towards Jim, he said, “Do a headcount.”
He walked over to Jim and stepped on him with his military boots. Expressionless, he snatched the satellite phone from his hand and hung up without hesitation.
“Reporting to Young Master Jie, we did a headcount. No team members died, but two members were injured.”
“Is it serious?”
“It’s not serious!”
Gong Jie grabbed his headset and called out to the Vermillion Bird. Soon, Vermillion Bird responded.
“Vermillion Bird, how’s the progress?”
“Young Master Jie, we’ve already secured the three hostages. They’re on their way back.”
“Did everything go well?”
“Considerably so. No team members were lost, but… a few team members and I are injured.”
“Is it serious?”
“No fatal injuries. What about you?”
“It went considerably well.”
It was a heart-palpitating success. The whole thing had gone too smoothly. In fact, it had gone unbelievably smoothly.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Jim, who was pinned to the ground. A sly smile gradually spread across the heretic’s face, and his temples throbbed violently. For some reason, such a smile was rather frightening and made people feel uneasy.
He grabbed Jim and went straight to the point. “You’re not Jim! Who the hell are you!?”
“Why? Young Master Jie, didn’t I hear that your subordinates are bringing the hostages back safely? However, I have to remind you that you seem to have miscalculated! The Sect Master had long expected that a smooth transaction would be beyond you.”
“Who the hell are you!?” Gong Jie was getting angrier.
Even though the other party reported that they had already evacuated safely with the three hostages and were on the way back, he felt that things were not that simple.
“Hehehe!” Jim’s smile became even more of an eyesore.
Gong Jie was certain that this man was definitely not Jim! He grabbed the man by the collar and demanded coldly, “Who are you?!”
Before Jim could say anything, the satellite phone he was carrying suddenly rang. Staring at the satellite phone in his hand, Gong Jie felt a boundless chill seep into his body. His limbs instantly turned cold and his scalp went numb.
“Answer it. Why aren’t you taking the call?” Jim egged him on.
Gong Jie picked up the call, and a middle-aged man’s gloomy voice came from the other end. “Young Master Jie, how have you been?”
“Jim!?”
Was that the real Jim on the other end of the line?
And this man called “Jim” in front of him was just a decoy?!
