James reported, "We have nothing to go on. The mastermind was very cautious."
It was certainly worrying that they could not uncover the mastermind—it meant a time bomb was lurking in the shadows and going to blow up at any moment, catching them completely off guard!
Isaac was scowling—he was worried too.
"Why don't we try to lure them out too?" James suggested.
Since the mastermind's target was Irene, they just had to let Irene appear isolated while Eagle kept an eye on her from the shadows.
That just might lure the mastermind out of hiding and they could set up an ambush to grab them in one swift stroke!
While it was certainly an idea, there was no assurance that it would all go according to plan, and Isaac would never risk Irene.
"Let me think about it." Isaac needed a perfect plan, and James understood that too.
Naturally, all that was left was to handle what was right in front of him for now, and he glanced nearby at the group of scumbags.
Although he felt that it was beneath him to even look their way, he had to do it despite his disgust.
He must personally see to it that they wish they were dead, and none of them were getting away from the inhuman torture waiting for them!
They would not only be punished, but they would also be denied their own manhoods!
…
It was not until three hours later that they were done with the gang, and James had his man load them into a truck like livestock and send them to the nearest precinct.
They were all career criminals, and they would be punished by law.
James would also be pulling some strings, so ensuring that they would be jailed for life was very easy.
As the cops took in the men and found them bruised and battered, even hanging by a thread, one of them asked, "What happened to them?"
"They weren't submitting," James replied nonchalantly. "We had to get a little rough with them."
"Oh."
James made sure to settle everything before rendezvousing with Isaac.
