Chapter 35 - The Problem

Among the many agents sitting in the conference room,there was one who was not paying attention to the slide.This was because he already knew everything there was to know about him.Of course nobody not even the handler was aware of their connection or he wouldn't have been chosen for this mission.Once he had entered the room and seen the slide he had understood what they were going to ask of them.The higher ups needed to eliminate Long Ah Hai not because he was a threat to the nation but because he was a threat to them and their deep pockets.Just then the lights came on and the handler came out in the front.In an enigmatic voice,he said,"A weapon does not see whom it is attacking.It listens to the orders of only it's holder.As you have all seen,Long Ah Hai was the perfect weapon.But this weapon's master has now changed."This statement resulted in a collective in drawn breath.They were high caliber agents who understood what the handler was trying hinting at.The handler smiled and pointed at the screen behind him and continued,"As you all can see,he was discharged from active duty last year and the very first thing he did after that was save the life of the President of Country A.For which he was even bestowed indemnity by the country.That means that,should we ever need to bring Knight back forcefully,country A will not be treated as an ally.Now all of you know why you have gathered here.In his short duration of service,Knight has completed many confidential and dangerous missions gathering much sensitive data.Such data is now in the hands of Country A.Though we are not in a state of war with that country we cannot risk this data landing in the wrong hands.Thus your mission is to finish the threat that means finish Long Ah Hai."

"If you think this task is easy and there is no need for so many of you then you are in for a shock.You have seen the military background of this man,now let me show you his real background. Long AH Hai just happens to belong to one of the top financial families in the country.His eldest brother is the most powerful man in the business world and can ruin this country's economy single handedly.His sister in law has her hands in various businesses in many of our friendly countries thus making us wary of harming their family.Long Ah Hai's second brother is soon set to be the youngest Judge in the country and has a network of informants almost as powerful as ours.Combined this with Long Ah Hai he is veritable untouchable in this country so we have to attack him covertly."

The agents looked down at the information they had written and still one wondered out loud,"Sir,even if the man is such a big threat,we can send a few agents to kill him.Why do you need so many of us?"

The handler smiled in iront and said,"This picture you see is an older one though the article is new.The interviewer failed to mention that this was a telephonic interview.So though we can guess his location,we are unable to trace his exact location.Because we do not know what he currently looks like or his current location we cannot kill him.To kill him we will have to identify him.And that is where the multiple agents come in.You will all undergo training together so that you can find him and then eliminate him."
