“We were surprised about the fact that they chose Avenport, but we figured out afterward that they
probably wanted to pack the Alpha radioactive gas in separate containers and take them away. Or
perhaps, they have more than just one buyer in the first ce. Coincidentally, there are a few chemical
nts at the juncture of Avenport and its neighboring state, and one of them is abandoned. We suspect
that they will be packing the Alpha radioactive gas in one of those chemical nts. The nts belong
to Fairchild Corporation and Gand Group, which was why we asked you toe here today to help
us. Although we could step in and evacuate the staff, this would surely alert the terrorists. Worse, they
might even be provoked. So, we hope you cooperate with us and find a way to evacuate the workers in
the chemical nts. As for the losses you will incur, I will talk to my higher-ups and request—”“There’s
no need for that,” Xavier interjected before James could finish his words. “We’ll cooperate with you, and
we will shoulder the losses that will ur from this.”This was the decision Xavier and Winnie made
unanimously after exchanging nces.It was their responsibility as good citizens to contribute to the
maintenance of public order.Evacuating the workers was a basic act of respect toward life. In the face
of human lives, mary losses were insignificant.“All right.” James nodded at Winnie and Xavier.
“Thank you for making sacrifices for the greater good. Well, I’m done talking. Can you tell me what’s
going on with your side currently?”With his brows scrunched, David piped up, “Let me update you on
that. This is what happened.”Then, he summarized that day’s incidents for James.After listening to
David, James remarked, “The Special Task Force already set off in the morning. ording to what you
told me, Harold personally went to Gand Group this morning to deliver something. In that case, it
would be impossible for him to track Ms. Marsh unless he had put a tracker on her in advance.
However, before the Special Task Force members left, we did a thorough inspection of the equipment
they had on them. If Ms. Marsh really had a special electronic device on her, we would have
intercepted it. But as of now, I haven’t received any reports on it.”Winnie knitted her eyebrows and
raised a question. “But what if… what if the person who delivered the package was someone else and
not Harold?” She went on, “Harold may have undergone stic surgery, so we don’t even know what
he looks like at the moment. If the person who went to Gand Group this morning is not Harold, then
thetter might have been keeping his eye on Lisanne sincest night. He has earned quite a fortune in
the past few years and gathered a big group of subordinates, and there are lots of fearless guys willing
to risk their lives for him. Besides, he has always been hiding in the dark. We have no idea who his
informant is. The Special Task Force deals with all kinds of vicious terrorists, so they are constantly in
danger. As if that weren’t enough, they now have Harold, who’s waiting to pounce on them. I’m really
worried about my friend. It isn’t an exaggeration to say that she is powerless.”“What you said makes
sense. However, this is a crucial moment where one single step can trigger severe consequences. It’s
impossible for us to make the Special Task Force return. Judging from the current situation, the only
thing we can do is send a backup to capture Harold as soon as possible. We hope you understand,”
James uttered with a serious expression. Winnie nodded. “We do.”“All right.” After casting Winnie
another nce, James added, “By the way, I hope you don’t involve yourselves in this. It’s very
dangerous, after all.”Winnie immediately agreed, “Okay. We’ll take care of the matters rted to the
chemical nts. Officer rk, I’ll put my trust in you and leave the rest of the matter in your
hands.”Since she was not a professional in dealing with criminals, Winnie did not wish to create trouble
for the police.“Okay, thank you for your cooperation. Just leave the rest to us.” With that, James stood
up and shook hands with Winnie and Xavier. “I have to arrange a new n immediately, so I won’t be
seeing you out. I will notify you right away once we ensure Ms. Marsh’s safety.”With that, Winnie,
Xavier, and David bade James goodbye. Right when they walked out of James’ office, Winnie received
a text.Upon reading its contents, she furrowed her brows and stopped in her tracks, catching David’s
attention.He turned around and inquired, “What’s wrong?”“Harold has taken the initiative to contact
me.” While Winnie said that, she passed her phone to David.At the sight of the way of address at the
beginning of the text message, David frowned.“Dear Winnie?” He read the two words aloud, feeling
puzzled. “Ms. Gand, are you sure this message is from Harold? This number seems to be a virtual
number from the inte. Besides, why would he address you this way?”“It’s a long story. I put up an
act in front of him back then to gain his trust. I’m sure this text is from him,” Winnie insisted.“If that is
true, then this is bad. Let’s go back and talk to Officer rk.”In no time, they knocked on James’ door
again.When they entered, he had just finished talking to someone on the phone.“What happened?” he
questioned upon seeing everyone’s stern expressions.Winnie exined, “Harold asked me to get a
GPS from the science academy. He told me to follow the route he ced in there and go somewhere,
or he’ll detonate the bomb. I have twenty minutes to do that.”“This is outrageous!” James mmed the
table. “It takes around fifteen minutes to get to the science academy from here. It would be best if you
left now. I’ll ask the technical team to follow you.”As they had little time, Winnie and the two men
headed straight to the science academy without saying anything else.She followed Harold’s
instructions in the text and soon found a GPS in the bushes near the science academy’s fence
wall.Soon after Winnie turned on the device, Harold’s message arrived: You’re quite fast. It seems like
my first bomb is useless now. Now, drive and follow the route I nned. I can track your location, so
don’t think of pulling any tricks on me.Winnie clutched the GPS tightly and got into the car.However,
she did not leave immediately. After a few minutes, James showed up with his colleagues from the
technical team.They checked the GPS, but unfortunately, they could not figure out the location of the
person controlling the device.The only thing they could do now was to follow Winnie and monitor her
movements.
