Chapter 88 - sign language

*BANG* *BANG*

With approximately sixteen people inside the aging concrete establishment, the air suddenly turned pressing and suffocating. The broken small windows for ventilation above shakes as a strong breeze tries to crash the remaining fragments intact. Some disgusting used c_o_n_d_o_ms loitered along with the pieces of broken bottles scattered on the floor and visible heavy spiderwebs clung at every corner of the hair strand crack vandalized walls.

As two deafening gunshots were fired randomly by Mike, they were all obliged to shut their mouth as they held their breath -- shrinking their presence.

As soon as the flat line cadence split their ears, the smell of gun powders waffled inside the abandoned warehouse. One did not dare to speak a word as their big boss's right-in-command fired another two consecutive warning shots -- the fifth one would definitely land to any one of them.

Apparently, Victor Wang was oblivious about this unspoken rule, thus, his ever truckling voice was the first to speak.

"Hehe. Boss Mike, don't be mad. I know you have moral codes and stuff but this… I can do this. Since I'm a close associate for years, let me do this. Just this one? Alright?" persuading him with all his might, he tries once again with his request. After all, he cannot get over to the humiliation and his sudden bankruptcy just like that.

Mike squinted his eyes suspiciously towards this disheveled man's appearance. Since the day he claimed he allegedly escaped, he starts acting out of character little by little. It seemed that he was losing his contemptuous mind. He couldn't even properly take care of himself now, so how can he entrust this matter to someone outside the family?

"This is family matters. We will get your money back." Though Mike was displeased by his constant insisting, Victor Wang is still an important associate, thus, even if he wanted to knock him out to stop his non-stop blabbering; he wouldn't.

"Boss Mike, I need to get even with her! You don't know how she tortured me when I was on her hand because I don't want to rat you all out! Even if I am not part of your family, I treated you all and Don Tuna as important as my family!" Victor Wang sounded hurt and passionate about his speech, yet, Mike was unmoved because he knew him better than anyone present. After all, Mike constantly deals with him every now and then.

'This heartless bastard is shameless indeed.' Mike thought internally as he watch his pitiful act of dismay unfolding in front of him.

He sighs after a moment of pondering, however, before Mike could answer his agreement, a melodious giggle resonated across the abandoned warehouse. It was beautiful yet the sinister vibe it also gave off broke the imaginary scenery of an innocent girl's chuckle.

It sounded more like the demon queen resurrected and successfully infiltrated earth ready to annihilate the whole humanity.

Turning their attention to its source, the original tied girl is now unexpectedly released.

Although she was still perched at her original spot, the only difference is she is sitting with her legs crossed and her hands freely propped in her head --she seemed unthreatened being surrounded by them. The desperate girl while being kidnapped was gone, all they see now is someone who looks apathetic about her current situation.

Seeing her laid back manner as her other hand compasses leisurely with its own rhythm, no one dared to say anything. Seeing her swinging fingers, Mike and his gang knitted their eyebrows in confusion.

'How did she know this?' They thought in unison.

That symbolic sign language was familiar or rather too familiar with them as they used it to passed secret messages, alas, she does it with no apparent meaning and just randomly shows letters.

Seraphina arc her brows seeing their unmoving figures and just mindlessly staring at her hand. 'What a bunch of idiots.' she thought. Since her patience is running thin and she had her excited heart at bay, she spoke breaking the silence.

"How naive of me thinking that I would meet Tuna boy." she sighs disheartened by the outcome of her miscalculations. However, it was expected as people don't tend to show themselves without any reason. She continues,

"How should I punish him for not disciplining my grandkids well?" Just as she finished her piece, Mike abruptly raised his pistol aiming straight at her head, with a 'bang' he shot her. Alas, it only grazed some of her hair strands falling as she effortlessly tilted her head like she knew where it will go, even before Mike pulled the trigger.

After a brief contemplation, Mike assumed that this girl diverted their attention with their sign language and probably just buying time for her escape. Alas, before he could pull the trigger the second time, an abrupt huge screeching sound of the abandoned warehouse entrance busted open from a loud powerful giant kick -- revealing two men; one tall guy and a giant.

"Yo, yo! SURPRISE M*THERF*CK*ERS!"
