Chapter Summary
If they had known it would turn out like this, they wouldn't have accepted the mission. When they were first approached, the offer was 80 billion yen, and the mission was very simple: just escort Dr. In this situation, no one was thinking about the money anymore, because they all knew perfectly well that preserving their lives was the most important thing.
Hearing this from below, the team members became extremely nervous. If they had known it would turn out like this, they wouldn't have accepted the mission. When they were first approached, the offer was 80 billion yen, and the mission was very simple: just escort Dr. Ito out of the city. As long as they could deliver him to the designated city, the money would be theirs. The offer had also given them a very high deposit—10 billion yen. So these people were immediately tempted. In fact, they were very clear that this mission was extremely dangerous. If they weren't paid enough, they would never complete it. Just like now, even though they were already in danger, they would never abandon Dr. Ito, because this old man was worth 80 billion yen. If they abandoned him, how could they earn that much money? If they had to hunt ferocious beasts in the wild, who knows when that would take.
Actually, some members of the team are now regretting their decision. In their eyes, this is tantamount to suicide. Putting aside what others are thinking, the best thing they should do in this situation is to abandon the old man to save their own lives. But if they continue to take the old man, they might all lose their lives here. Moreover, they now understand very well that the people who gave them this mission are no ordinary people. They realized that someone who can come up with 80 billion yuan at once is no ordinary person. And those people dare to go against the Human Investigation Bureau, so they are definitely not ordinary people. Therefore, these people must be some kind of extremist forces in society. Some people even opposed taking the job, but the problem is that they are a small team and have never earned so much money before. If you are afraid, you can't let others lose this money. There is no such logic in the world.
Moreover, according to their rules, if you know this information, you have to obediently join in. If you don't, you'll lose your head. Everyone knows that in this situation, if they don't take your head, they can't do this. Everyone understands that once the secret is leaked, forget about making money; it's a pure loss-making business. They don't know if you'll reveal the secret. So, those who heard about it knew that unless they all quit the business, if one or two wanted to retreat, they would only be leaving with their corpses. Now, things have turned out badly. Not only did they not make any money, but most of the team died. They also felt that this matter had to succeed. If it failed, their team would be ruined, and they would never be able to do anything like before.
While they were chatting, the leader suddenly looked warily into the distance. It turned out that while they were talking, patrols had begun to arrive. Before, no one had come to patrol, which meant they hadn't been discovered. But now that patrols were coming, it meant someone had found them. So they were all very nervous. If they were really discovered, there was nothing more to say. In this situation, they could only fight for their lives because they had no other choice. They were extremely nervous, thinking they had been discovered. In fact, it was just a routine check. It was just that they felt guilty. Actually, at their level, very few people weren't guilty.
"You two go out and see what's going on. We'll try to stay within this area. As long as we don't get caught, we're capable of anything. We must leave no survivors. But let me be clear: although I love money, if we really can't escape, we'll just have to leave this old man here. We can't die with him. Most of us have murder cases on our hands. If we get caught, it won't be 10 or 20 years before we get out. We could all be humanely killed. I'm not kidding. So you all need to understand this before you speak. If anyone is still worried about the money at the end, don't blame me for being ruthless. You have to be alive to spend the money you want."
The leader decisively gave the order, and the others nodded in agreement. In this situation, no one was thinking about the money anymore, because they all knew perfectly well that preserving their lives was the most important thing. Perhaps they shouldn't have taken the case in the first place. Just now, these people were determined to rush out and get the money, but now no one had that thought anymore. The most important thing was to save their own lives. Asking for the money when their lives were in danger was just ridiculous. So there was nothing more to say about the current situation. As long as they could get out of here, that would be a great relief for everyone. They didn't even want to think about anything else; they didn't have the life for it.
Dr. Ito, observing from the sidelines, had a clear view of the situation. Having spent so much time in the martial arts school, what kind of people hadn't he seen? Judging from their expressions, they seemed to want to give up on him. But even so, there was nothing to say. He was well-prepared. Did they really think they could handle everything? Of course not. If that were the case, he might as well give up. He was quick-witted and resourceful. He thought he could outmaneuver him? He wasn't capable. Don't be fooled by his appearance; just because he looked like an old man didn't mean he was. In this state, he could handle most things, including the beautiful ladies.
