Chương 79: KISSUS MY A**IUS
(Santos' group)
The mini van drove into tunnel, and soon appeared on the other side.
"There, stop them!" yelled Bryan.
Team Raptor operators stepped hard on the accelerators, quickly catching up. At Bryan's orders, the lead armoured vehicle manned by Artemis 6 "Liu Zhong" performed a PIT maneuver, in which he did a controlled collision by tapping a side of the vehicle, causing it to spin and come to a halt.
The remaining 2 armoured vehicles in the convoy soon pulled up beside, Team Raptor operators disembarking, guns raised.
Flanked by Cameron and Meari with their QBZ-192 and KAC KS-1s raised, Bryan slowly approached the vehicle, keeping his QBZ-192 raised.
"End of the line comrades!" yelled Meari. "Step out with your hands raised!" she fired a few warning shots.
2 French men shakily stepped out, hands raised.
"Please, don't shoot! We are innocent!" they pleaded in French.
Shocked, Bryan asked them who they are.
"We are just university students! 3 Americans and 1 Chinese paid us to drive this van out of the tunnel!" exclaimed a man.
Cameron immediately turned to the horde of vehicles leaving the tunnel from another exit.
"SH*T..." she cursed.
(On a blue SUV far out from the tunnel)
"Oh that was close," muttered Xu Qing.
"Too close," concurred Santos.
He turned to Sean and Frederica on the front passenger and driver seats. "Glad you 2 made it on time!"
"Thank Xiao Tian for his 50 different escape plans," smiled Sean. He and Frederica immediately converged to them after receiving a SOS from Santos.
To prepare for any unforeseen troubles, Xiao Tian had planned 50 different escape routes and methods they can take after getting Sir Campbell, ranging from boats to cars to public transport, and even on foot.
"Yeah, who'd have thought that baiting some university kids with a 700 Euro quick job would be so effective as a plan?" mused Jay.
"How was the trip here?" asked James.
Sean sighed, recounting the mess it took for them to get to the blue SUV and then coming over.
"Not fun," he said.
(Near the Effiel Tower)
"Oh sh*t, Maia is back on our a**!" exclaimed Louis, seeing 2 armoured touring vehicles belonging to Team Ion catching up on them.
Xiao Tian looked at the map, where he had marked out contingency plans. Seeing that he has a backup sedan located in an underground car park nearby, he turned rightwards, charging for it.
He then explained his intentions to Nanami and Louis.
After driving for 10 minutes, in the process invoking multiple charges that will get his driver's license revoked for sure, they arrived at a mall.
"Alright, now!" said Xiao Tian, driving into an underground car park.
Nanami and Louis disembarked, grabbing the still unconscious Sir Campbell from the trunk, loading him onto another sedan parked beside. The 2 got in, while Xiao Tian drove off.
Nanami looked at the UNSSD vehicles that stormed past them, chasing after Xiao Tian, oblivious to them. Once the UNSSD vehicles left, Nanami started the electric motor, driving off from another exit.
Xiao Tian looked at the UNSSD armoured touring vehicles chasing after him, gulping. The touring vehicles are faster than the SUV he is driving, meaning that if he simply just drive in a straight line, it will simply be a matter of time before he is caught.
Looking at the map, he found that he is close to a metro station, which is also part of his plans.
He made a turn at another intersection, driving out from another exit. Once he is out, he immediately drove onto the opposite lane, trying to use the incoming traffic to fend off his pursuers.
Seeing that it's working, he sped up, arriving at another intersection. He immediately drove back onto the correct lane, speeding forward at full speed.
Just then, a sight in front of him stunned him.
Aya is standing in the middle of the road, behind her is an UNSSD roadblock manned by Team Phantom.
Aya has her rifle raised, one finger on the trigger, but the safety is still on.
She stared hard into Xiao Tian's eyes, a mixture of relief and pain. Relief that her boyfriend is alright, pain that she has to arrest, or kill him for treason.
Xiao Tian did not hesitate, keeping his foot on the accelerator, charging straight at Aya.
Alarmed, she raised her rifle at the last moment, deliberately missing the shots which punched holes in the windshield glass around Xiao Tian. The other Team Phantom operators opened fire, and Xiao Tian quickly ducked, hiding his head behind the steering wheel.
The SUV then collided into Aya, ramming her, she rolled over the SUV before falling onto the road, landing with a thud.
Xiao Tian then drifted, avoiding the tire spikes and the vehicle disable shots fired from the Team Phantom members, charging out of the roadblock.
The 2 Team Ion armoured touring vehicle stopped to check on Aya, who is painfully standing up from the road. Even though she is barely hurt physically apart from the pain, she is still hurt deeply, emotionally.
"HOW CAN HE JUST RAM INTO ME LIKE THAT?!" she bawled, breaking down.
Xiao Tian than stopped the SUV by the roadside, disembarking quickly while grabbing a backpack underneath the front passenger seat, walking into a corner in the street.
He took out its contents: some fake moustaches and a pair of spectacles. He turned his checkered shirt inside out,, turning it into a formal white shirt and buttoning it on. He then applied the moustache on his face all without a mirror, and wore the spectacles, assuming his disguise as an ordinary French white collar worker of Asian descent.
He blended into the metro station, and soon boarded a train, heading in the direction of the safe house.
(Night, at the safe house)
"I have said everything," retorted Sir Campbell in Latin, tied up on a chair. He only replied in Latin throughout the interrogation, as a way of protesting. The Team Zero operators did not dare to use the "ungentlemanly way" on him, for fear that his body was also jinxed like the Becketts, and they would consequently lose the intel.
Hence, Sean, being the only one among them who can understand Latin given how it is not included in the universal translation software in their headsets, is forced to be the main interrogator.
"How long have we been doing this?" yawned Sean.
"Since 4 hours ago," replied Phineas, looking at the time. "Man, I really should paid more attention during interrogation training," he cursed internally.
"Still nothing?" asked Nanami, walking in, talking in Chinese to make sure Sir Campbell does not understand what they are saying. She is carrying a tablet with her.
"Nah, this guy's mouth is frozen solid like frozen fish," replied Phineas.
"Why don't you 2 defrost him then?" she chuckled. "How about being warmer?" she asked.
Sean and Phineas looked at each other, deciding its a viable strategy.
"What's your full name?" asked Phineas, then Sean repeated after him in Latin, trying to lead him into a more comfortable topic and slowly find a weakness.
"I am "Futue te ipsum" (Go f*** yourself)!. " replied Sir Campbell smugly.
"What did he say?" asked Phineas.
"He said he's Futue te ipsum?" replied Sean. His Latin vocabulary is still limited, not understanding it.
"What's that?" asked Phineas.
"I don't know, maybe it's the Latin name for the House of Campbell," replied Sean.
"Ok, let's ask something else," said Phineas.
Sir Campbell looked at the 2 young men and young girl in front of him, perplexed at why are they not angry.
"Where are you from?" asked Phineas. Sean translated the question again.
"I am from "Futue te ipsum"!" replied Sir Campbell in Latin.
"He said he's from "Futue te ipsum"," replied Sean.
"Where's that? A place in the UK?" asked Nanami.
"I guess so, probably Scotland," replied Sean.
"Now that's interesting, a "Futue te ipsum" from Futue te ipsum," laughed Nanami, and the 3 snickered.
Sir Campbell grew more and more perplexed at their reactions.
"Now listen, "Futue te ipsum"," said Nanami
"Listen, go f*** yourself!" said Sean in Latin, stunning Sir Campbell with the sudden use of vulgarities from him.
"If you still want to see your daughter, "Futue te ipsum"," smiled Nanami.
"If you still want to see your daughter go f*** yourself," said Sean in Latin.
"If you, "Futue te ipsum" still want to eat your Shepherd pie," continued Nanami.
"If you go f*** yourself still want to eat your Shepherd pie," said Sean.
"Then let's be friends, "Futue te ipsum", and tell us what are you all and Archangel are up to, and you, "Futue te ipsum", can walk out of here as if nothing happened," finished Nanami.
"Uh..." Sean mumbled, the amount of information he needs to tell Sir Campbell is already too much for his limited command of Latin to handle, so he started talking nonsense.
"You and Archangel, f*** you..." mumbled Sean, essentially saying the Latin word for "f***" over and over again unknowingly.
"GO F*** YOURSELF!!" roared Sir Campbell in English, talking with a heavy Scottish accent, finally having enough of being the receiving end of a barrage of vulgarities.
"My, my, why so angry?" asked Nanami, oblivious to how Sean had insulted him.
She then opened the tablet.
"I guess we have to use this then," she smiled, keying a few commands.
A bank account screen appeared on the holographic projector, shocking Sir Campbell.
"That's the Campbell family trust fund," he exclaimed. "How did you have access?"
"Not to hard to buy personal information these days, daddy~" replied Nanami, moving her fingers across his face.
"Now, now, for you ultra rich, capitalism have provided avenues to avert your tax responsibilities, how sly~" she whispered into his ear. "Like this little trust fund, which reduces your taxable income~"
"Then also the amount of capital tied up in the stock markets," she added, showing another screen.
"Now, what would happen if I just, transfer them away with a blink of an eye?" she asked.
"Heh, so what if you all hacked the accounts, it's not like you all can authenticate without..." Sir Campbell muttered in shock, realising what they want to do.
"Facial recognition, retinal scan and fingerprints are all here in 1 package," smiled Nanami.
"I don't know, but if generations of wealth suddenly just disappeared in my lifetime, I'd rather be dead," laughed Phineas.
"Motherf***ers..." cursed Sir Campbell. Not wanting his family fortune to be wiped out overnight, he decided to cooperate.
