Chapter 275
“I don’t think it is the police.” Felix wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. “Jetstar Logistics only 20 kilometers away from the airport. It is normal for planes and helicopters to pass by occasionally. You don’t have to worry about it, Young Master.”
Tyler visibly relaxed after hearing that, and he comforted himself, “Yeah, logistics parks are usually close to airports or highways. The plane must have only been passing by.”
As he spoke, the helicopters above gradually flew away.
It suddenly fell silent there, and only their tense and heavy breathing remained.
“Ha! They really were just passing by.” Tyler patted his chest and let out a long sigh of relief before he started cursing. “F*ck, why is it so hard to earn money? I almost f*cking died!”
What they didn’t know was that the four helicopters from earlier were the scouting party dispatched by Hades!
At the same time, Lancer, who was outside Warehouse 8, had received a report.
“The other party has a box truck and six vans. The estimated number of people is around 30. They are currently hiding in Warehouse 15, which is about three kilometers away from Warehouse 8.”
After listening to Hades’ report, Kingsley smirked and said, “Let’s go, Lancer. There is less than 30 minutes left. Let’s not make them wait too long.”
“Alright, Ares!” Lancer briefly responded, and was about to get in the car when his backup phone went off.
Lancer glanced at his phone. “Ares, it is from the Spearhead Group. They are probably calling to inform us to move to a new location.”
“Take the call. We will see what else they have planned!”
Hearing that, Lancer accepted the call.
“Hello? Is this Mr. Houston?” Felix’s voice rang out.
“Speaking. I am already at Warehouse 8.” Lancer looked around and faked a disgruntled tone. “There are only 20 minutes left before the time we promised on. Why are you not here yet? Don’t tell me you are standing me up.”
“Of course not!” Felix blurted out. “The Spearhead Group’s reputation is our top priority. We would never stand our client up. Please understand where we are coming from, Mr. Houston. After all, explosives are different from regular items. We have to be careful about it.”
“So?” Lancer asked nonchalantly. “When are you going to be here?”
Felix, with his phone in his hand at Warehouse 15, looked at Tyler before he replied in a low voice, “How about you head to Warehouse 26 now, Mr. Houston? That is where our men are all at. We will meet there!”
Immediately, Lancer’s cool voice came from over the line. “Fine. See you.”
After hanging up the call, Tyler rubbed his hands together and inquired, “Are our men at Warehouse 26 in position?”
“They are all safely hidden!” Felix smiled confidently. “The trade will only formally begin once we have ensured they are not playing tricks on us.”
Upon hearing that, Tyler threw an arm around Felix’s shoulder and cheered excitedly, “How thoughtful of you, Mr. Smith! I will make sure I promote you as the general manager when I take over the group in the future”
“Thank you, Young Master!” Felix had a happy look on his face as he buttered up to Tyler. “Ever since we got into the arms trade a while ago, we have received two big orders in a row! I firmly believe that it will not be long before you inherit the company, Young Master!”
“Haha! Even God is helping me! As long as I keep this lucrative business going, that little b*stard will never be my opponent!” Tyler boasted.
“Indeed! You are favored by God, Young Master!”
“Hahaha!”
Just as Tyler and Felix were both chortling joyfully, they suddenly heard the faint sounds of a car driving in their direction.
Like a deer caught in headlights, Tyler instantly froze and he whispered nervously, “Did you hear the sound of a car, Mr. Smith? Is someone here?”
“It is probably someone from another warehouse who came to order goods.” Felix reassured him, “Don’t be nervous. We have our line of defense at Warehouse 26. We are safe—”
He was interrupted mid-sentence when a gray jeep quickly came into view and stopped at the door of Warehouse 15.
The next moment, Lancer opened the car door and slowly got out.
Tyler couldn’t help but get the shock of his life when he peered at Lancer’s mountain-like and burly physique. “W-Who are you?!” he squeaked.
