Chapter 657 The Cave

“We found a spot that looks like it might be the enemies’ hideout, but I suspect that something bad

might have happened to Cole,” Tony said. Nicholas’ gaze darkened as he opened the map and

questioned the other man. “Where’s the hideout?”

“It’s somewhere here.” Tony pointed at a spot on the map. “I think we can send a large group of people

in for a rescue mission,” he said.

“Have you checked the grounds? Would the rescue mission have a high chance of success?” Nicholas

glared at the other man as he tried to think of tactics that could help in rescuing Cole.

“The hideout is on high grounds, so it’s hard for a large group to charge in. However, we can sneak in

from the fences beside their hideout.” Tony proceeded to describe the location of the hideout. Nicholas

thought that a rescue mission could work, so he made a quick decision. “Let’s stick to this plan. We’ll

gather some men, put them into groups and get them to sneak in.”

Tony nodded and left to handle the logistics. That night, once they gathered all their men, Nicholas and

Tony entered the mountains, leading their teams in from two different pathways. They trailed along the

planned routes, using the moon’s dim light to guide their footsteps. Finally, they found the enemy’s den

on a small hill. However, Nicholas halted his footsteps before they could go any nearer. “Aren’t we

going over there, Chief Sawyer?” one of the members whispered.

Nicholas didn’t respond immediately—he merely looked up to check the den’s entrance. Unfortunately,

the opening was just a large cave, and there was only a dim light that made it hard for one to see what

was going on inside. Nicholas was more puzzled by the fact that there wasn’t a single person keeping

watch at the entrance. He narrowed his eyes and seemed to realize something then. “I want everyone

to take 50 steps back.” Many of his team members were confused but stuck to Nicholas’ orders and

stepped back. Once they were done, one of the members couldn’t help but question Nicholas. “Why did

we have to take a step back, Chief Sawyer? Since we found the den, we should focus on getting Cole

out.

Nicholas looked at their surroundings before speaking in a whisper. “If this is the enemy’s den, then

why isn’t there anyone keeping watch at the front entrance?” The rest of the members came to a

realization after hearing Nicholas’ words. “Could the enemies know that we’re coming?” one asked.

“It doesn’t seem like it. Chief Sawyer asked us to take 50 steps back, so I suspect CCTVs are watching

us from somewhere,” another one said. A look of approval surfaced on Nicholas’ face upon hearing

this. “That’s right. We were really close to the zone where the enemies would be able to see us just

now,” Nicholas uttered. “Is there a technician here?”

“Yeah!” Two voices piped up in unison. Nicholas nodded before giving his orders. “You guys can work

together. One of you needs to focus on obfuscating the cameras while the other will guide a drone to

enter the mountains and assess the grounds there. The rest of the men can wait here for my orders.

“Got it!” Everyone started on their missions. Soon enough, one of the technicians controlled a tiny

drone and brought it into the mountains. But what they saw next came as a complete shock to them.

They found out that there was a completely different scenery waiting for them within the cave. The cave

had obviously been refurbished, but what was shocking was the number of prohibited items that were

stacked up against the walls of the cave.

Right then, another one of the technicians reported his findings as well. “I’ve shut down all the CCTVs,

Chief Sawyer.”

“That’s great. I want everyone to follow me. You can continue monitoring the insides of the cave.” His

last sentence was meant for the technician who was controlling the drone. The rest of the men entered

the cave. They were just about to enter the central area of the cave when an accident occurred. They

had slowed down at a turning when they bumped into a few men patrolling the area. Nicholas and his

people didn’t have anywhere to hide.

“Guys! Guys! Some cops are sneaking in.” The enemies had clearly assumed that Nicholas and the

rest were policemen, so they shouted at the top of their lungs while they ran back to the base.

Nicholas had no choice but to give up on his original plan at that point. “Get them!” he hollered.
