Luca’s POV
As expected, there were no footage of the kidnapping scene in the cameras, and so that left us to scanning the plate number and following it, in hopes of catching up with the kidnappers. It wasn’t long that we got the car if the plate number, and began to follow it. I knew it was going to ne way too easy if we end up finding Armani this way, all because we looked for the plate number.
As expected, the plate number led us to a dead end. It wasn’t like a dead end completely, it was an end that made it sink in that all what was currently happening was way more serious than I expected.
The supposed car which we had traced down to this very spot, was in complete shambles. The car was completely ruined with bullets and there was blood everywhere. I didn’t need to be told that a fight had occurred here, and from how warm the dead bodies in the car was, it was very obvious that it hadn’t been long since the men were killed.
“Fuck… just fuck.” James cursed from the other side of the car, he was also surveying everywhere, and checking if any of the people in the car were still alive, but I knew that was impossible. The now dead people were dressed in black and also still had masks on, it was very obvious that these were the people who had kidnapped Armani, telling from what Sofia had described to me, and they were also there in numbers.
What was also obvious here was that, these people were ambushed by some other people, who killed them and took Armani to God knows where.
“Armani isn’t here, the people who cornered these people definitely has him.” James finally announced the same thing that I had just silently concluded on. I ran my fingers through my hair and angrily kicked the dead body beside my feet.
This was not good, it wasn’t good at all. We are more or less at a dead end right now.
“Who are these people?” I asked as I gestured at the messy scene we were both currently standing in. We had guards with us right now, who were making sure nothing takes up by surprise here, by watching everywhere and being at alert.
“I already took pictures of them, we’d find out who they are soon, I don’t recognize any of them, but I have a feeling they knew who we are, and also knew who Armani was.” James stated as he came around to stand beside me.
“Or what if someone asked them to do the kidnapping and just showed them a list? And those set of people had broken the deal and killed the kidnappers without paying them for kidnapping Armani?” I asked after a few moments while still regarding the dead body which I had kicked some moments ago.
James hummed as he crouched and pulled off the mask of the body at our feet, as he regarded his face.
“Now that you’ve said that, they don’t even look like Italians all that much, but then we can’t be so sure.” He murmured as he pushed himself to his feet once again.
“If I was indeed right, that means someone was definitely behind all these, someone who knew that Armani had arrived here in Italy last night.” I stated as I shoved my hands into my pockets.
“There’s definitely a rat in our midst.” James hummed out after a few moments and I couldn’t agree more because that was already glaringly obvious, it was what I had concluded on even before I had left the house a few hours ago.
