Anderson was not surprised at all when he heard this. This was because he knew that these people who lived on the edge would not care about anything otherthan money. Therefore, Anderson did not refute them but went along with them.
“That makes sense. I can help you apply to the higher authorities. But then again, I’m also about to give you an ultimatum. There is an important event tomorrow and you can’t let Geena attend it… Tonight is your deadline!”
Kerrick was also filled with anger at this moment, so he nodded. “You don’t need to remind me of this. If this guy manages to escape twice in a row, I won’t be merciful in the future. Otherwise, how can my boys and I show our faces next time?”
“That’s good. The deadline is at dawn tomorrow. I’ll wait for your good news.”
When Kerrick heard the other party hanging up the phone, he called everyone back.
Everyone dared not ask questions when they saw Kerrick’s gloomy expression.
“You can tell, right? The employer has issued an ultimatum. We must catch Geena before dawn tomorrow. He must not be in Bashra tomorrow!”
“So, we have to go all out tonight.”
Some people on the team thought they were making a fuss out of nothing.
Since the establishment of the assassination team, there had been no record of them going out in full force. However, they shut up when they thought of how Geena escaped them twice in a row.
“It seems that you have no objections, right? Then pack up your things and go!”
This time, Kerrick led the team himself. He refused to believe that Geena would escape from death again this time!
***
At midnight, fewer and fewer pedestrians were on the street and a black van appeared at the end of the street.
The largest building on the street was the hotel under Geena’s name. These staff members were still working hard, completely unaware that a group of assassins was approaching outside.
Kerrick came to the front desk unceremoniously and went straight to the manager.
