Elliot raised his head and gazed at the chair, which was only a meter away. He had no idea what it was made of and could only see it shining silver in the dim light. The chair's back was covered in colorful wiring, and two tubes connected to a large bucket on the right.
His eyes widened with surprise, and he asked, "Ah! What are you doing?!"
"We're going to torture you, of course."
Saying that, Gabe frowned, grabbed Elliot's collar, and dragged him to. that chair.
‘•Let go of me!" Elliot began to scream and struggled furiously. The sack and rope, however, had wrapped around him like a cocoon, making it nearly impossible for him to move. And Gabe started dragging him and took a few steps.
In terror, Elliot yelled, his voice echoing in the basement, "I'll tell you! I'll tell you right now! It's Richard! Richard asked me to drive a truck and stage a car accident to kill Anna. He promised me that he would help me pay my debt if | make it.”
Hearing that, Gabe frowned and looked back at Wayne. Of course, they knew what Richard's purpose was: he wanted to take over Gabriel Group but Anna refused to let him do so, which was why he wanted to kill Anna.
Under the dim light, Wayne looked more irritated.
"You f*****g piece of s**t! How dared you try to kill my girlfriend!" he said as he took two steps forward and stomped on Elliot's face. 320 Enemies
‘•Let me go, please! | didn't want to do thi:
in the first place.”
Fearing that Wayne would beat Elliot to death, Gabe immediately mediated, "We already know what's going on, Mr. Wright. So, maybe we should let him go now."
Wayne paused and said, "You don't need to do it, Gabe. Leave him to those two out there, and they know what to do.”
Gabe sighed, feeling relieved that he wouldn't have to deal with Elliot himself. He didn't care what happened to Elliot because that guy deserved it anyway.
They let the two thugs in after they came out of the basement. After a While, Elliot cried out loud in pain but his cries eventually faded away.
Gabe shuddered as he imagined what the two thugs had done to Elliot. In the rearview mirror, he noticed Wayne's cold expression. He asked Wayne, "What should we do now?".
"We'll settle the score with Richard later,” Wayne said slowly.
Wayne turned a blind eye to the horrible things that Richard did for the sake of Peter. Also, Wayne was busy these days, so he didn't have time to manage the group. So, he thought it would be good to let Richard do his job for a while.
However, by messing with Anna, Richard made a huge mistake. And Wayne would not let him o this time.
The New Year was approaching, and practical exercise training was about to begin at the Military Academy in Birmingham.
After getting his number plate, Ryan carefully pinned it to his uniform.
"Hey there, loser," Emily said as she stood behind him. 320 Enemies
Before turning around, Ryan felt a powerful arm slap him on the shoulder. Emily smacked him so hard that he nearly coughed up blood.
Meanwhile, Emily didn't notice his reaction and said to him, "Just stay
behind me after we leave the military zone later. Ill protect you."
"You cannot go there on your own! I'm going to tell our school about this!"
Ryan tugged Emily's arm and said, "No, don't! Emily, | can handle it myself. Please. "
Emily gave him a stern look and said, "Are you insane?! Our operation is merely a drill, and the crime dens are all set up by our school. Remember, we don't have any real bullets in our guns! What can we do if something unexpected happens? There are more than just the two of us in our group. What if they truly believe it's a fake one?"
Ryan said thoughtfully, "That's why | asked you to put me in charge of that area! They won't enter my area as long as we each set our own. Trust me, I'm confident I'll catch their boss. I'm not doing this to take credit, Emily; I'm doing it to completely eliminate them." 320 Enemies
Emily went entirely still. She felt that whenever Ryan spoke seriously, his ideas always impressed her. Ryan first caught her eye when he gave his speech at the start of the school year as the delegate of his department.
Emily frowned and said, "Okay, | can promise you that. But you also have to promise me one thing."
"What? Really?"
Ryan's eyes glowed. Emily was the group's commander. So, if she agreed to this request, his plan would be half-completed. He hadn't expected Emily to be so easily persuaded.
"I'm going there with you."
Hearing that, Ryan froze, not knowing what to say.
Emily continued, "And once we arrive there, you'll have to ask my permission for everything you do. You must obey my orders because | am your commander.”
Ryan smirked. He was hesitant but had no choice but to comply with this request.
After the drill began, the students dispersed in groups. Emily asked two more students to accompany her and Ryan to the east of the city after dividing the areas for the group.
