Redeeming The Golden Ticket To Life

Chapter 56: Planning The Trap



[POV Feling]

"Hello, Feling. It's good to see you."

"It's good to be on the mainland again. I was getting nauseous of the sea breeze for some time now," I replied.

I have been on the mainland for a few days now. Today, I got to meet the elusive general of the East Military Division.

"Feling, it is always a pleasure to meet you. So, what brings you to the land?" The General asked anyway, though we are fully aware of our objectives.

"Nothing too serious, just the regular drills," I replied nonchalantly.

"So who is our target this time?" He asked while looking for a lighter.

"Someone interesting," I replied as I brought a lighter from my pocket.

"Thanks," he replied as he brought a cigar from his breast pocket and lit it. 

"How is your preparation?" he asked.

"Not bad."

"Do you have a source there?" he asked while releasing a big puff of smoke.

"Something along the line."

"Deep source?" he asked persistently.

"Don't care," I replied while remaining tight-lipped about the details.

"Fine, I'll not press you for any more details. You do what you have to do Feling but keep in mind this is the mainland and capital city at that, do not go overboard. It's not your sea that will help you bury your sins."He said his piece while puffing out rings of smoke.

He showed no interest to continue any conversation. So, I quietly took my leave.

I left the general's office. 

'This is going to be quite fun.'

(I dialled a number.)

[Rrring.. Ring Rrring ..Ring]

After some time, the other side picked up the call.

"Took your time huh.."

"Speak," the voice on the other side said.

"Anything I need to be aware of?" I asked. It is good to be through.

"Like?" 

"Like, any pressure points to explore, or any hidden threats," I hinted to the person on the other side of the call.

"It is too airtight and on a personal visit, didn't come across anything suspicious." The other side replied.

Then…

[Beep… Beep… ]

The other side hanged the call.

It sure is frustrating to not know your targets in and outs.

'Interesting'

'Ms Shui Bai Chang, let the game begin.'

I walked out of the military compound and moved to my next destination.

******

After making a few necessary stops I walk towards my safe house.

There are rows after rows of monitors adorning the wall. They all were showing some places under surveillance. I moved towards a particular monitor on the top right corner.

"So, how do you do, Mr Hu?"

"Are you preparing for the bid?"

"Good, because I will take that opportunity to ruin you."

I moved to the open kitchen in the left corner of the room and poured myself a glass of whiskey.

'Bai Chang, what are you doing now? Do you remember me?'
