Chapter 1354: Chapter 1354
The warden’s home was just an ordinary apartment. To the Conquerors, it was as defenseless as a sheet of frail paper, easy to infiltrate without encountering any resistance.
"Grab the hostages!" Tang Zheng stood in the living room, surveying his surroundings, and casually picked up the family photo on the tea table. "Don’t forget, there might be a daughter."
Qin Yan led the assault team upstairs and, in less than a minute, had brought down two women without making a sound.
The woman in front was in her forties, well-maintained, dressed in silk underwear, her coarse and somewhat short thighs and bare feet visible, her face filled with panic. Ruan Feifei was behind her, grabbing the seventeen-year-old daughter, who was dressed not in pajamas but in underwear. Although her mouth was gagged with cloth, she was still struggling violently.
"Quiet down!" The female anchor raised her hand and slapped the girl’s cheek.
Tang Zheng turned a blind eye to this, he had already taken the hostages’ situation into consideration; otherwise, he would have assigned the Old Soldier to handle it, which would have been even more brutal.
"Confirm the target!" Shen Qingshuang checked the photo, nodded to indicate there was no problem, "Do we need to invade the homeowner’s personal computer in the study?"
"No need, just put hoods over their heads." Tang Zheng extended his index finger, lifting the woman’s chin, and looking into her eyes, which resembled those of an injured animal, he curled the corner of his mouth, "Don’t worry, as long as your husband cooperates, you won’t be harmed."
Bai Guo took out two black cloth bags, attempting to put one on the girl, but she twisted and turned, uncooperative, even glaring fiercely at Natural Stupid, leaving her somewhat flustered.
"I’ll do it!" Gu Xueqi, though not old, definitely had an adaptability that outshone most of her teammates. Calmly taking the hood, she grabbed the girl’s hair and put it on.
The prison was built in a sparsely populated suburb, twenty kilometers from the city, which conveniently facilitated Warhammer Team’s operation without fear of being encircled.
"What if the warden doesn’t cooperate?" Dong Zixuan considered herself a good police officer and thought any government official would put the interests of the state before personal gain, just like she would.
"We’ll force our way in!" Little Lolita, polishing the White Ivory, was eager for combat, desperate for a release after almost going crazy from being sick.
"Find the target, eliminate on sight, then evacuate. Kill all the riff-raff blocking the way." Tang Zheng had no time to fuss over or consider these Natives, "Just cause chaos and buy some time."
Out of the city, the American West scenery was clearly visible. A lizard paused by the highway, attempting to cross. Under the scorching sunlight, it looked like a piece of dry wood, constantly lifting its legs, swapping them to avoid burning on the hot ground.
The bus roared past, narrowly avoiding crushing the lizard. None of the people here had been abroad, but they had no time to appreciate such exotic landscapes, worry etched on every face.
With no buildings near the prison, as soon as the bus came into view, Tang Zheng noted that the watchtower’s armed guards had spotted it and he used the walkie-talkie to notify his colleagues.
"The defenses are tight!" The Old Soldier, peering through a telescope, observed the exterior of the prison.
"Did you remember what I’ve told you? If you mess up, you can just wait to die!" Mu Nianqi threatened the mother and daughter. "Tang Zheng, have you chosen your men? With so many people, it’s impossible for everyone to go in!"
"Choose the strongest combatants." As the bus stopped near the prison, the Old Soldier suddenly swore, "This car is a giveaway!"
"The prison guards would never expect someone to dare to raid the prison. Let’s move quickly." Mu Nianqi, with her arm around the middle-aged woman as if she were a relative, headed towards the prison.
"Let’s play it by ear!" Tang Zheng instructed his companions before jumping off the bus. With formidable strength backing him, playing conspiracy games seemed pointless.
The woman negotiated with the prison guards, and her identity indeed came in handy. Although the guards were puzzled, they did not obstruct her.
"Did you see that? I don’t believe such departments abide strictly by the rules. They will compromise when faced with power," Pang Meiqin mocked the justice system. In fact, it didn’t matter if the woman was detained; as long as they could summon the warden, they would succeed. They could simply abduct him as a hostage to enter the prison.
"A flimsy excuse." The woman used the reason that her daughter was ill to see her husband in order to enter the prison. Although it was Mu Nianqi’s idea, she was already dissatisfied, feeling it should have been more perfect.
Tang Zheng’s team comprised six people in total, and the prison guards were skeptical, but after the woman sternly retorted, they prudently stopped asking.
"You can leave now!" Tang Zheng gave a symbolic knock on the office door and waited for the prison guard leading the way to leave. Lin Weiguo grasped the door handle, his Ability activating, dissolving the lock.
The team pushed the door open and entered.
A middle-aged man in police uniform was flirting with a blonde girl.
"What are you doing?" The warden’s wife was stunned, then filled with boundless rage, she roared and charged at her husband.
Pang Meiqin reached out to hold her back.
Gu Xueqi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, clearly disliking the scene, and she took the initiative to step out and guard the door. Bai Guo blushed and lowered her head.
"What are you people? Get out!" the prison warden’s face turned pale, thinking they were there to plead with him, there was no way he was going to show them any good expression, "Wife, listen to my explanation."
"What’s to explain? Who is she?" The woman was like a crazed mother cat, defending her own territory.
"She’s my personal lawyer. This isn’t what you think!" The warden was desperate.
The female lawyer wasn’t at all concerned about her wardrobe malfunction; she even threw a coquettish look at the handsome Tang Zheng.
Pang Meiqin glanced at Tang Zheng, and with a swift chop of her hand, she knocked over the middle-aged woman who was ready to rush out and fight.
The warden and his mistress were stunned, as several guns were aimed at them, filled with murderous intent.
"Take them away!" As soon as Tang Zheng’s words fell, Qin Yan had already pounced, her wrist flipping out a military knife, which she placed at the warden’s throat, silencing his cry for help.
Pang Meiqin charged at the female lawyer, chopped her neck with her hand, and knocked her out cold.
"Take us to find the red-haired prisoner who was locked up yesterday!" Lin Weiguo knew they didn’t have much time, the prison guards would soon discover something was wrong, and even though everyone was wearing black suits, which could temporarily pass them off as men in black, it wouldn’t delay for long.
The warden’s principle, under the threat of Qin Yan’s military knife, was thrown into complete disarray without even a moment’s hesitation.
On the way to Cell Block No. 2, several prison guards they ran into had already become suspicious, with the more diligent ones already using walkie-talkies to inform the watchtower to strengthen their guard.
The cell door opened, and Tang Zheng led the team inside, immediately a noisy wave of sound hit their eardrums.
It was an ’L’-shaped corridor, with cells on both sides, three stories high in total. Seeing strangers come in, the inmates clothed in prison uniforms crowded at the door, banging against the bars, making a blur of crudeness and noise.
These guys were hard-core prisoners, difficult to manage. In the past, the prison guards would have responded by swinging their batons, but since no one did that today, they were even more unruly.
On the gray concrete floor, dull blood stains were scattered, the unlucky victim of some prisoner who had angered the guards and gotten beaten up.
Tang Zheng took a few steps and frowned. In one of the left-side cells, a burly black man pressed down on his prison buddy, gorging himself on him. Tang Zheng felt so disgusted he almost vomited his bile.
Bai Guo was not used to this environment and quietly moved closer to Qin Yan.
"It’s a woman!" A prisoner shouted, and the inmates got even more frenzied, all squeezing toward the bars to catch a glimpse of Qin Yan and the others. Content originally comes from ⓝovelFire.net
These hardened criminals, at the very least, had been locked up for three years. Even wanting a poster of a woman would take a lot of effort, so now they all looked like rutting wild boars, howling loudly with a torrent of filthy words.
Tang Zheng lifted his foot and kicked out; the bars bent, ricocheting the inmate clinging to them back into his cell. Instead of becoming quieter, the prisoners laughed even harder.
"Hey, beauty, look this way!"
One black man teased with a laugh, only to anger Pang Meiqin. The Beautiful Leg Stewardess walked toward him.
"Wow, that feels good!" The black man fixed his eyes on Pang Meiqin’s enticing curves and had just spat out two words when his expression froze, as the dark muzzle of a gun crossed his forehead.
"No, don’t... ah!" The black man didn’t finish yelling before a gunshot rang out, followed by his shrill scream.
Bang, the black man’s lower half was completely shattered, and blood splattered everywhere. The prisoners who witnessed this scene were collectively silenced, but there were still some who cheered the violence.
Pang Meiqin snorted coldly, moving on to the next cell, lifting the muzzle of her gun.
"Don’t, I didn’t do anything!" The prisoner hurriedly raised his hands to beg for mercy.
"Sorry, you’re too ugly." Pang Meiqin shot him, turning his head into a bloody mess, then moved to the next cell.
Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and continued with the warden to find their target.
"With that, the world is a cleaner place!" Mu Nianqi clearly wasn’t a fujoshi, as she watched the two inmates stacked on top of each other, firing her gun and blowing their heads apart.
