Chapter 996 She was killed

Hawk, this name has the meaning of "eagle" and also "swindler." Many people use this term to describe a predator.

With the thought of this name, Huston's expression darkened. Regardless of who he was, if he fell into Huston's hands, he would make sure to inflict upon him the pain he had inflicted on Evelyn, multiplied a thousandfold, even ten thousandfold!

"Mr. Lloyd, we'll be there in five kilometers." The driver took the initiative to report to Huston. Maybe he had noticed Huston was too depressed.

Huston nodded. "I see."

He raised his head and gently closed his eyes but did not let go of his hands hanging on his knees for a moment.

Evelyn, wait for me. You must wait for me!

Fifteen minutes later, the car stopped at a location behind a hilltop. Other cars also came to a halt behind him. Shortly after, police officers dressed in tactical gear emerged from the vehicles one by one in the darkness.

They were professionally trained, moving so silently that even at close range, unless one listened carefully, their presence would go unnoticed, let alone from a slightly farther distance.

Each team arrived at their designated positions according to the deployment plan, but as they got closer, they discovered that the poppy field they expected to find was nothing more than bare, empty soil! At that moment, frontline special police officers relayed intelligence, saying, "The flower field is gone. All the flowers have disappeared!"

Huston could overhear their conversation inside the car, and his already tense heart became even more unbearable. Cold sweat started to form in his palms, making them damp and moist.

"Continue to move!"

"Got it."

The night breeze swept over the barren land without the cover of poppy flowers. Everyone had to be even more cautious and careful. The team responsible for the frontal breakout did not rush forward but followed the plan, waiting for the other teams to reach their positions before releasing the riot dogs.

These highly trained dogs could guide everyone to avoid the landmines under their feet, and their coordination with metal detectors was highly precise.

The initial estimation was that it would take twenty minutes to complete the formation and deployment of the teams, but everything was ready in less than fifteen minutes.

The experienced team leader furrowed his brow, his expression unusually sharp behind the safety mask. He had a lingering sense that something was off but couldn't quite put his finger on it. Everything was going too smoothly, so smoothly that it almost seemed deliberate on the other side.

However... as he glanced at the pitch-black mansion looming overhead, there was no time for further contemplation. He issued a command without hesitation, "Move out!"

The quiet air was shattered. Through the night vision goggles, even without the lights on, the mansion's structure was clearly visible. As soon as they entered, a shot rang out from behind the corner of the living room staircase.

Normally, seasoned criminals like the ones they were up against would use silenced handguns. However, this time, their ears were met with loud gunshots, real and thunderous. Even sitting in the car, Huston could hear it clearly. As soon as the police entered, the other party immediately opened fire. This was a level of extreme wickedness and brutality.

His already cold face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost upon hearing the gunfire. Evelyn was so close to him, yet he couldn't do anything while she was in danger.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense as all the tactical teams moved around the various floors of the mansion. Whenever they encountered any criminals, they swiftly apprehended them. Time was ticking away, and the vast mansion was quickly taken over by the polices. However, despite searching every room, there was no sign of either Evelyn or Hawk.

"Continue searching!"

Footsteps sounded again. They didn't let go of any corner. They almost pried the floor open to look, but they still couldn't find Evelyn.

There was only one explanation for the disappearance of the hostage at this time...

The team leader looked at the four apprehended criminals kneeling on the ground and sternly asked, "Where is the hostage?"

The four men were all locals of Yazton, and three of them couldn't understand what he was saying. Only one man, who looked pale and thin with a small stature, could comprehend. He smirked and, accompanied by a sinister smile, softly uttered three words, "She was killed."
