Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 3196 What A Wonderful Feeling

However, Gerald did not expect that he would have to carry out the mission before his body had fully recovered.

What Gerald also never imagined was that his mission would be successful.

He was in excruciating pain that caused him to tremble uncontrollably in bed. The men outside found him too noisy and gagged him.

Yet, he was overwhelmed with excitement right now. It was an excitement he could not contain!

He had succeeded, and moreover, he had survived.

He did not know that killing someone could be so simple!

Before carrying out the mission, Gerald was afraid, and he was worried about what might happen to him. He was also afraid that Amul might kill him while they were halfway there before getting rid of Jacob and Harold himself.

Furthermore, he had always thought that murdering a person was a difficult task.

Now, all Gerald could think about was how killing someone could feel like this. What he had thought was so difficult turned out to be so simple!

This was what it felt like to murder someone.

Gerald slightly narrowed his eyes. The excitement caused his body to release adrenaline, making him feel like the pain was not as intense at the moment.

What a wonderful feeling.

If only his mouth was not gagged, Gerald would surely be laughing instead of groaning in pain.

Suddenly, Gerald felt a newfound craving for carrying out such missions.

He now wanted to continue and experience that rush again when others were avoiding it.

Gerald’s body slightly twitched at the thought of this. Previously, he regretted joining the Island of Despair, but now, he felt that he made the right choice. He even thought that the missions the Island of Despair assigned were tailor-made for him.

At this moment, Gerald had already forgotten that his success was partly due to Amur's assistance.

He attributed the success of the mission to his natural talent in this area.

He also forgot that he might be under police surveillance.

All of these things slipped his mind.

...

The following day, everyone in A City was focused on one thing.

Today, Matysh was to be escorted to court for trial.

This case had been closely followed by the public. Therefore, the court decided to livestream the proceedings on its official website considering the high level of interest.

While such livestreams had occurred before, they usually garnered little attention. Only law students would watch them, as well as swho watched the replays.

However, it was different this time. Even before Matysh arrived at court, the livestream rooms of major media outlets were already packed with people, and there were crowds gathered outside the courthouse.

Seven joked that if they could throw rotten eggs and vegetables at Matysh, they would certainly do so.

However, such actions were no longer allowed. They could only express their anger by watching and hurling insults.

Luke sat in the car, listening through the microphone.

He heard his subordinates at the scene mentioning that there were many onlookers. Luke could not help but furrow his brows. Having so many people watching could be advantageous for Matysh.

It was also beneficial for the mercenaries as they could easily create chaos and then abduct their target.

However, in situations like these, once chaos broke out, casualties could easily occur—especially since the mercenaries were armed. The consequences could be unimaginable.

"Tell the escort team to use the back door," instructed Luke.

"Got it."

They did not know when Ethan's men would strike. If they were to strike at the courthouse entrance, it would definitely cause a commotion.

Even though they were not police officers, as A City citizens, they were responsible for ensuring Matysh's safe delivery and the security of the public.

Hence, they could not possibly chase the crowds away when there were so many people at the courthouse entrance. They had to use the back door.

Hopefully, the back door was not as crowded.

Luke's men had connections with the police department. They generously provided their intelligence to the police to make them believe that Matysh had planned an abduction.

Consequently, both the police and the court personnel took it very seriously. Even the entire judicial system's relevant staff were mobilized.

How dare the other party defy the city's judicial system?! They were about to learn the hard way!

Therefore, when conveying Luke's instructions, the court had no objections and maintained personnel at the main entrance primarily to maintain order.

Meanwhile, Luke's men quietly made preparations at the back door.

"Boss, suspicious vehicles spotted." Gale’s voice cthrough the earpiece.

Luke glanced at the screen displaying a small red dot.

The red dot indicated Gale's location. Each of their team members was equipped with a tracker for precise monitoring.

Luke let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the vehicles were still sdistance from the courthouse. It seemed that they would not strike at the courthouse entrance.

These mercenaries were not foolish either. They knew that causing harm to ordinary citizens during their operation would provoke anger domestically.

Also, they would have to face condemnation internationally.

A City was not an entity they could mess with! If it were not for the hefty payment, the mercenaries would not have taken on missions in A City.

“Stay alert. They're unlikely to make a move at the courthouse entrance,” reminded Luke.

“Don't worry, Boss. Rain and I have got this under control,” reassured Gordan with a hint of laziness in his voice.

Even though Gordan sounded relaxed, Luke knew he was closely monitoring the mercenaries' every move.

"Ha, how shameless. I'm here too!" Gale chimed in.

Gordan's eyes were sharp as an eagle's, firmly fixed on the suspicious vehicles. He did not argue when he heard Gale. He noticed something unusual about the vehicles.

“Heads up.”

“Heads up.”

Both Gordan and Gale said simultaneously.

Gordan continued, "The suspicious vehicles are approaching the van."

Gale followed up, "Stand by."

As their words trailed off, two vehicles intercepted the van.

With a loud bang, the prisoner transport van unavoidably collided with the vehicle that intercepted it. Immediately after, another two clashing sounds were heard as eight mercenaries stepped out of the vehicles and began shooting at the van.

The prisoner transport van was fitted with bulletproof glass and stainless steel. It would not be penetrated immediately. The guards inside promptly exited the vehicle.

Gale saw this and immediately floored the accelerator, crashing into another vehicle.

The mercenaries did not expect another vehicle to ram into them, leaving them dumbfounded for a moment.

Gale quickly ducked down. As a legal civilian, he had no firearms and could only wait for the guards from the prisoner transport van and Gordan to engage the mercenaries.

During the split second of the mercenaries' confusion, police officers got out of the prisoner transport van and opened fire directly at them.

The mercenaries, seasoned from battle, reacted swiftly. They used the vehicles as cover and returned fire at the police.

The exchange of gunfire was intense, and neither side dared to advance. They used their ammunition to suppress the other while seeking a breakthrough.

Gale lay low inside the car, feeling frustrated.

This was originally a task meant for Gordan, who could arm himself and fight the mercenaries.

However, Gordan adamantly refused and insisted on taking on another task.

Now, Gale could only wait inside the vehicle and wait for their next move.
