Chapter 498: Act Together
Her words made Ye Jian curve her lips as she said, “Alright, I’ll try my best.” She’ll do her best, though not now. After all, Petty had never been trained professionally. If someone found out that she had a gun on her, the consequences would be disastrous.
She patted Petty’s shoulder lightly and stated again, “Sit down and rest for a while. If the kids start crying, please try to console them. Please trust me, Miss Petty, we’ll leave safe and sound. We’ll also take the children to leave safely.”
Ye Jian’s words calmed Petty down because she felt that there was also someone who would think of a way to protect the young children like she did. She, herself, had to muster up the courage to stand up tall and defend her people.
“Jian, please rest assured. Even though I don’t have a gun with me, I’ve been learning a lot from the guards. I could at least fight a bit.” After saying so, Petty lowered her head, her voice filled with self-reproach, “I’m terribly sorry for not being good at fighting.”
Two ghostly figures sneaked into the orphanage from outside and found the room that Ye Jian was currently in.
Just as Ye Jian was about to approach the door that was locking her in, before two minutes had passed, she heard a dull sound coming from the other side. There was some kind of noise of someone dragging something substantial, which was scraping against the ground. Ye Jian immediately knew that the two Al-Qaeda guards outside must have been taken care of.
“Q-King, the staking has been settled.” Someone’s compressed voice could be heard, the news of the assassination was transmitted through the earpiece.
On the other side, Xia Jinyuan sneaked under a bus like a cheetah. After he rammed a thumbtack directly into the tire, he could hear his comrade-in-arms’ voice from the earpiece. He smiled slightly and said, “Everything is going well. Tell Ye Jian that she should get prepared.”
The infiltration of the Elite Platoon represented the full implementation of the rescue operation. As for Pabel’s three demands, the President of Pakistan had met them, and they would do things as soon as possible.
The first thing to do as soon as possible was to release Cheti Vonokof from prison. At the same time, it’s time for the Chinese soldiers to sneak into the orphanage.
It was Pabell who had confirmed that Syed Warakaf had been rescued from the prison and was on his way to Jiyang.
It was around that time when the two members of the Elite Platoon had successfully sneaked into the room where Ye Jian was. Both of them cooperated with each other strictly. What they’re doing must be in sync. Their movements mustn’t differ even just by a single second!
The members of the Elite Platoon who came to meet Ye Jian were not Xia Jinyuan and his team of four; instead, they were two soldiers who spoke Urdu. They knew that there was a girl who was accompanying the leader of the protection team who was the representative of students from the two countries.
Ye Jian heard a gentle knock from outside. She responded by putting her hands gently on the door. After being confirmed, she said softly, “No fighting using shooting guns. There are several gas barrels in the room. There are also four children whose bodies were drenched in gasoline. If you fight using shooting guns, it will cause an explosion. There are 32 hostages in total; 16 of them were under the age of six. The oldest one is twelve years old.”
After the chaotic war, many children couldn’t grow properly because of long-term malnutrition. Even a twelve-year-old boy looked like he was only ten years old.
Upon listening to her accurate reports, the two Elite Platoon members, who were disguised in grey robes outside, exchanged a quick glance. They knew just by listening to the voice that this was the Ye Jian they were looking for, the one who had helped Q-King accomplish his missions many times.
She was really calm. Not a trace of fear could be seen on her face.
“Roger that. The President had agreed to their demands. They will be releasing the first batch of hostages at 10 o’clock tonight.” An altogether unfamiliar and calm voice came through the panel. “I’m V8. The other member is T6, and now we’re inside the Al-Qaeda group, fully disguised.”
