Chapter 1259 - The End Of The Hunt
Plan C!
It looks like he would have to pull that card off if he wanted to leave it intact.
Jonah also saw his expression and decided to see what other tricks he had in store for them.
Scarface gritted his teeth, fighting back the pain, while squarely looking at Jonah dead in the eye.
"You think you've won? How foolish do you think we are? Because your weak empire rejects people from entering the entering with weapons, then shouldn't we take precautions when coming in here?"
"You mean poisons?" Jonah asked playfully.
Of course, he knew that the chances of one entering with poisons was low because of the Chemical detecting devices that could detect several harmful substances based on onerous factors.
But even at that, there was always a possibility that one day, a criminal might be able to miraculously bypass the system.
Humans were an ever-evolving and intelligent species.
So one day, it might be possible.
Well, if he were back on earth and had watched the {Now, you see me, now you don't} movie, then he would fully understand why Landon always wanted them to stay sharp and not rely on machines all the time.
For now, ever since the various detectors got made, they hadn't had someone get in with poison.
But that didn't mean that they would lax their guards down.
No. They still treated death ȧssassins or other ȧssigns the same too.
Because even though they managed to stop these people from people in arrows, seasoned weapons and psions, these people still managed to make do with what was already within Baymard.
After all, he wasn't about to let this guy kill himself after successfully catching him.
So what was their Plan C?
.
Jonah decided to play the frightened card.
And seeing his anxious look, Scarface grinned amidst his pain as though he had already won.
"For an inferior species, you're good. Heh... Do you think that I would infiltrate this zone without any form of collateral?"
"You... what did you do?"
"Bahahahaha! Now you know fear? I tell you this! If you don't take me out of here, then you can kiss the hostage goodbye!"
Eh? Hostage?
Hmhm.
The police had long suspected that this might be the case. So they had long begun their search across Baymard.
But because his communicator was off, he hadn't heard any feedback from them.
Then... Did they find the hostages? Were they safe, injured or already killed off?
Jonah quickly turned on his Walkie Talkie and immediately called his Commander amidst Scarface's evil laughter.
.
"Hostage situation confirmed. Intruder requests to leave in one piece in exchange for information about hostage whereabouts. Commander, we must agree to the intruder's plans, or the hostage will be in danger!... And lastly... This is a Code Black Swan."
[Archangel, what are you... Eh?... Code Black Swan?]
"Yes, Commander. Code Black Swan."
[Then in that case, I think you're right. For the hostage, we must give the intruder what he wants. But first, give me some time to talk with those above.]
"Not a problem Commander, I will Stand by for further instructions."
Tut...
The communicator went off again, but Scarface wasn't worried.
Hahahahhaha!
He heard the talk between both sides and felt mighty calm even though his pain was a nightmare!
Good Scarface.
He inwardly patted himself on the back for his quick thinking.
The weaknesses of these bastards were their people.
They valued the lives of lowly peasants so much that they would risk their very lives over such worms.
However, for their enemies, it was the perfect leverage that he wouldn't mind taking advantage of.
To him, they would soon let them go. So why should he be bothered?
.
Jonah hastily placed his walkie-talkie away and looked at Scarface with an anxious expression on his face.
"Those people are innocent. So why harm them? Look? We will surely let you pass. So why not just tell us where they are?"
"Tell you where they are? What the hell do you take me for? Stupid? I'll only tell you after you've sent me to the nearest pirate ship! Now, listen to my conditions: …blah, blah, blah, blah… And finally, I want only 1 ship to escort me over. Not the big ships, but the little ones I saw running about the place."
The Coast Guard patrolling ships?
Jonah tried his best not to roll his eyes while still maintaining his anxious look.
At the same time, he also began first aid treatment, cutting a few leaves around Bushy Valley and taking out a few first aid patches and items that he always carried around... Especially during training.
"Ahhhh~~~... Damn you! What the hell are you doing?"
Jonah quickly worked, distracting Scarface with the pain of his injury, as well as the hostage situation.
And sure enough, his Walkie Talkie came to life yet again.
Of course, the moment he heard his commander's voice, he already knew the outcome of it all.
For sure, the Hostage had been found.
Situation controlled!
.
What?!!
Scarface's entire body went numb from shock when he heard the words from the person on the other end.
How? How did they find the hostage so fast?
He just told them about the hostage situation a few minutes ago.
So even if they could fly? How could they find every possible information in such a short time?
Impossible! Impossible!
Jonah looked at the crazed Jonah and chuckled lightly before taking up his Walkie Talkie again.
"Airforce 3... You're free to land."
[Roger that. Pick up in 4 minutes!]
With that, the hunt was officially over!
