Capítulo 27: Infiltration
Dawn was coming. Birds were chirping outside the windows, giving a peaceful feeling.
Rei looked at his reflection on the mirror. A young man standing straight with buttoned up t-shirt and black pants, accentuated his slim body.
He smirked.
<Host, are you ready?>
Rei glanced at his watch. It showed 5.00 am. The distance between his apartment to District-X only around 30 minutes by car. He planned to get on the scene earlier to prepare everything.
<I am.>
He walked towards the living room. Watching the empty space, he dazed.

"Why are you playing in the club? You should go for treatments!" Alden yanked him from some woman's embraced. They were enjoying the music on the dance floor before Alden came.
"It's not your business! I'm going to die, anyway! So why couldn't I have some funs before I depart this life?"
Rei was furious. His pent up anger was directed to the teenager before him. The commotion caused some people around them stopped and stared.
"Fine." With trembled lips and reddened eyes, Alden leaved the club.
.

<Host?> The System knocked on his consciousness.
<I'm sorry. Let's go.>
He stepped out of the apartment, looked at the inside one last time, before closed and locked the door. He walked passed some other's rooms to the lift. Rei then descended into the parking lots. He walked towards his usual parking place and found his black mini cooper.
<What a nice babe.> He stroked the bumper with envy.
<I can't afford this one in my reality. What a nice life this owner has.>
<Host, this owner has his father in jail.>
<Right. Wealthy comes with a high cost.> He sighed.
Rei opened the door and got in. He then turned the engine on, and started the car. Swiftly he drove the car out of the parking building into the highway. The road was nearly empty, since it's still early in the morning. With ease, he stepped on the gas.
<To the X-District we go!>

From a distance, he watched an empty street in front of TV-N Station. He saw some black cars parked in front of the station. There were around 7 cars parked in a row. Rei laughed.
'I see. They tried to be as inconspicuous as they can.'
Rei glanced at his watch. 6.00 am. He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Chen. Yes, I've been on my spot." He listened for awhile.
"Yes, there were many hiding policeman around the target. But the plan should go on. Make sure to make as much ruckus as you could at 7.00 sharp."
Rei then disconnected the call.
<Host, what should we do now?>
<What else? We just need to sit comfortably and enjoy the show that's about to roll out.>
Rei pulled out his chips and stuffed it down. His hand stopped when he saw someone familiar. He used his binocular and directed it towards the person.
"What's Levin doing in here? Is he commanded to secure this place, too?"
He then directed his gaze towards the person beside him.
"That's the police chief. Why he walked beside that person? Aren't their relationship bad?"
He pulled down his binocular. His mind deep in thought.
Just as he resumed munching his chips, he saw a mob of gangsters get off from five trucks. The gang number reached hundreds.
<Is it your people? Why they appear now?>
<No. That's X-District gang members. I was the one that called them here to join the show.>
<What? How?>
<I asked one of my subordinate who disguised and infiltrated the gang to tell their boss that the police and our people are planning to ambush them. I just need to share the recording and asked my person to tell the leader that the police has knew about their crime.>
<Host, you're brilliant!>
Rei showed his smug face.
<Do you know that their quarter is not far from here?>
<That's why Host chooses this TV station?>
<Yes. I see that they got no patience there.>
Rei said as the mob readily ran towards the police who already formed barricade. A voice warned the gang using speaker.
"Back off and surrender before we reserved with violence!"
The mob did not listen to the warning. They kept their advances.
The police officer aimed his gun towards the sky and gave a warning shot. The mob halted.
"Surrender now!" The voice shouted once again.
Suddenly a shot was heard, and it hit one of the gang members.
"What are you doing?" the officer leader asked in anger towards the one policeman who accidentally throwed the shot.
Seeing one of their members fell and bleeding, they were furious. They ran towards the barricade. Some of them pulled out their gun and started shooting. The place now in a chaos.
Rei pulled out his phone and ordered his people to stay low and hide. They should wait for his further instruction.
<Luck is on our side. Things escalated quickly without us being involved directly.>
He sipped his coffee.
<It's our time to move. Let's go!>
