The Black Swan Behind (Beauty of Fire)-Chapter 243

243 Car Intercept

“Roger!” Emma’s friends answered.

At the same time, the sound of the engines that had started growled in the basement of an abandoned building where they kept all their vehicles.

“They’re moving,” Cecil said as soon as the black van containing the kidnapped girls moved away.

Then Cecil stepped back from her peeking position. She pressed the button connected to the microphone attached to the mouthpiece on her mask. “AB, they’re coming towards you,” she said as she ran to the next post.

“Got it,” The girl named Abigail Bernard answered. She and her friend were in front of the house that Cecil was spying on.

AB took a black flat round object with a diameter of seven centimetres from her pocket. Then she gave a signal to her colleague who was on a motorbike that rode on the other side of the road, right at the intersection.

Before long, a van appeared. As soon as the car was about to pass through an intersection that had been secretly guarded, suddenly a motorbike appeared from that direction and cut the car’s way.

Startled, the car driver stepped on the brake and pressed the horn furiously.

“Asshole!” The driver exclaimed while opening the window.

.....

The girl in all black just laughed as she drove her motorbike away.

“F*cking biker!” The driver moaned again, couldn’t stand his way suddenly being cut like that.

“Don’t mind him. He’s just a reckless teenager. Just get back on the road quickly. Don’t let us be late.” His colleague, who was sitting next to him, said.

“Tsk! If I see him again, I’ll hit that idiot!” The driver muttered to himself as he moved his car back.

But everyone in the car didn’t realize that while they were stopping, there was a girl who had quickly attached a tracking object to the back of their car.

“Okay, everyone!” Kathy smiled when she saw the flickering yellow dot start to run.

On one of her three computer screens, a road map of Handway City was displayed. The GPS device was already installed on their targeted car and now Kathy could track it easily.

“They’re moving to Neem I Road,” Kathy said through her communication device that lined to Emma’s.

“Got it!” Emma said as she rode her motorbike around the road.

“Neem III,” Kathy said again, focusing on the computer screen.

Previously, Kathy had already marked the approximate location of the Beast Empire’s kidnapping warehouses. She got the information from Britney and Ava, who had often been brought to the warehouses.

Unfortunately, just like the other captives, Britney and Ava were also always blindfolded when they were in the process of being transferred, so they couldn’t see the way. 𝑓𝒓e𝑒w𝑒𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃ℯ𝙡. c𝚘m

However, in the ugly building were several windows whose wooden planks shutters have started to crack so there were some gaps that could be peeked through. From all the clues that Britney and Ava remembered, Kathy and two other IT members look for a road that shared similar characteristics.

Although they could not find the specific location, they did find two road locations that most closely matched the characteristics mentioned by Britney and Ava. And this was the right time to see which location was the real location of the human warehouse.

From the way taken by the black van, the computer could immediately predict where the car was headed. A notification popped up on Kathy’s computer screen that said ‘Location B’.

“They’re heading to location B!” Kathy said excitedly. The program that she and her two juniors made turned out to be working well.

“All right. We’re moving to location B now. Please show us where to intercept them.” Emma answered while riding her motorbike.

On the same seat, Emma brought one of her members who were ready to accept her order to hand-code their friends, which now numbered three motorbikes after another motorbike joined.

“They’re going down Krone Road. It’s very empty.” Said a girl who was sitting in front of her laptop next to Kathy.

Kathy nodded, then pressed her device. “Stop them on Krone Road. Daisy will show the way,”

“Daisy’s talking,” Another Kathy junior came into the conversation line and started pointing the way like a GPS guiding robot.

Meanwhile, Kathy was in charge of monitoring everything and giving orders to the other two girls who were her juniors in the team.

As predicted by the computer, the van carrying the five kidnapped girls headed towards Krone Road. It was because they used the fastest route they used to take. And that route history was the route they got from the online GPS when they first started the journey to transfer prisoners from the shabby-looking house to the human warehouse.

Automatically, the program in the application that Kathy made could read these habits easily just based on a few kilometres of the initial route that the van had passed.

As soon as the car arrived at Krone Road, which was very empty with minimal light, suddenly a group of motorbikes stopped them.

“W-What is this?!” The driver exclaimed as looked to the right and left at the two motorbikes that were already on both sides of his car.

“Who are they?” The man in the front passenger seat asked. “Keep going! Don’t stop!”

If their car stopped, the biker gang would easily hijack their car.

“What happened?” Asked another guy who was in the back seat to look after the girls.

However, as the question had not been answered yet, the passenger who was in the seat of the motorbike that was riding beside the door of the car’s driver seat, hit the window with a window breaker until it shattered. It was also followed by the same actions for the window on the front passenger door.

The broken windows made the driver panic. “What do you want?!” he exclaimed.

“Stop the car!” Rachel, who was beside the driver’s door, exclaimed.

“You wish!” The man replied before spitting out the window.

The two motorbikes following on the right and left of the car immediately slowed down their motorbikes until they were left behind the van.

“Haha! Eat that you, crap..”

BAM!

The driver instantly lost control of his car because the two front tires suddenly burst after crushing the barbed wire trap that Emma and her friends had put across the front way when the two men in the car were busy serving Rachel and her friends who were tasked to distract them from the start.

The sound of squeaking tires of a car that continued to slide on the asphalt sounded shrill. Luckily, the driver was good enough to control the car so it wouldn’t roll over because of losing control.

The car stopped in a cross position in the middle of the road with a little smoke around the tires. There was the sound of the girls’ stifled screams from inside the car.

“Let’s finish them off,” Emma said as she walked with her friends by her sides.

The car was surrounded by eight girls wearing all-black clothes and black helmets that were used to cover their identities and disguised themselves as a group of men.

The men in the car immediately got out and tried to fight off the eight robbers. But they were easily defeated, and knocked down on the cold asphalt.

Then a black jeep came and stopped beside the ill-fated van. The jeep’s window opened and revealed a masked person behind the steering wheel,

“Hello ..” Britney greeted.

Emma smiled. “You’re fast,”

“I tried the NOS just now. It’s okay, isn’t it?” She asked while thinking.

“Well.. actually, it was installed for emergencies. But, it’s okay for this time. At least you know how to use it, right?” Emma chuckled.

“Yeah, just think of it as practice,” Britney also laughed a little. Then she looked back. “Are they done?”

Emma turned to look at the black van that was being robbed by the rest of her friends. Then Rachel exited the back door of the car with the kidnapped girls following.

“Is anyone hurt?” Emma asked, taking a step closer to them.

The girls shook their heads. They still didn’t know that it was women who were helping or -perhaps- arresting them now. They were like a group of kidnap victims being transferred to another criminal. The reason was that the group of short-statured men had scary costumes and voices.

“We can’t break the chains. They’ll be transported straight to the base.” Rachel said.

Emma nodded. “That will save time.” Then she turned to the girls who still seemed to be crying. “The journey might be a bit uncomfortable because the chains haven’t been opened yet. However, I hope you girls can work together so that everything goes smoothly.”

“Y-yes.” The girls answered, trying to believe that the men were telling the truth that they had come to help.

“Come on, everyone. We don’t have much time,” Rachel said to the girls as she helped them to get into the jeep.

Emma walked over to the black van and looked inside. “Take everything that looks important. We need to get out of here before the police or their men come.”

“We’re going first,” Britney said from the window.

Beside her, Rachel got into the front passenger seat to accompany Britney on the way home.

After the jeep drove away, Emma immediately got back on her motorbike. She waited until all her friends got on their motorbikes and left, so she was the last person to leave the location to make sure everything was okay.

Britney parked her car in an empty building behind the Black Swan headquarters. Then, she and Rachel escorted the girls into the ballet studio through the back door.

Before long, Emma also arrived at the base. Even though it was two am, the situation inside the Black Swan headquarters seemed very crowded because several of its members were gathering after completing their mission.
