“Mr. Miller, Brent has given the signal. We’ll commence the operation. You just have to wait here
while we capture him.”
Kelvin led the charge into the abandoned warehouse in excitement.
For some reason, Ethan started to feel uneasy even though the operation had been planned
carefully. He felt regret as he watched Kelvin rush in excitedly. He reached out to try and stop
Kelvin reflexively.
Cyril had hurt his leg a few months ago. Although he was recovering, he still wasn’t in good
enough shape to take part in the operation.
He looked at Ethan curiously and asked, “What’s wrong, Mr. Miller?”
“I have a bad feeling about this.”

The operation should be flawless. Besides, the target is alone.”
Ethan frowned. “Didn’t he lead Brent around the downtown area for quite some time before
coming here? What if he was making preparations for an ambush?”
“You mean we’re the ones that are being fooled?”
Ethan scanned the area and felt like something was wrong.
“It’s possible. Signal for Brent to retreat.”
Ethan’s intuition had saved him countless times in the past. It was telling him that they were in
danger.
Cyril didn’t doubt Ethan’s judgment. He immediately contacted Brent and Kelvin and told them to
retreat.
Just as the text was sent, explosions could be heard coming from the abandoned warehouse.
Kelvin, who hadn’t even gotten to the warehouse, was surrounded by the flames.
He lay on the ground and called out toward the warehouse, “Brent!”
No one knew what happened, but one thing was clear. Ethan was right. They had been tricked!

The fire started to spread, and chain explosions were set off.
“It’s an ambush. Run, Mr. Miller.” Cyril yelled as he ran toward Kelvin.
Kelvin was always an emotional person. The sudden explosions made Kelvin lose his mind.
His first reaction wasn’t to get away from danger but to run toward Brent.
Cyril reacted just in time to grab him.
“You have to get away. This is an abandoned factory site. The explosions would carry toxic
substances with them.
Tears were streaming down Kelvin’s face. He bellowed, “Brent! Brent is still in there!”

blown to pieces.
“Even if he survived the explosion, the fire would’ve gotten to him. You should’ve been prepared
for this eventuality in this line of work.”
“I’m not afraid of death, but I’m afraid of my brother dying.”
“Your brother wouldn’t want anything to happen to you, too. Listen to me. Get away from here. It’s
not safe.”
Cyril had to drag Kelvin away as the explosions intensified. Dark clouds rose into the sky. Toxic
gasses and fire started to spread in the area.
Ethan finally understood what the person was doing while he was leading Brent around. They
pretended to fall for his trap, but he was also doing the same.
The person was too alert. He probably noticed Brent quickly.
It was too late for regrets. Ethan calmed himself down and analyzed the situation.

So, it was just the beginning.
As he thought about that, a beam of infrared light cut through the smoke, aimed at his forehead
