Chapter 180 - 168: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind
The airplane had started to circle.
They could already see the runway of Baghdad Airport.
Gao Yi was quite relaxed because what he needed to do was really simple - just land the plane and hand over Abdulla to Shaman’s men.
The plane aligned with the runway, landed, and glided along until the end of the tarmac. Then, instead of heading to the terminal, it followed a guide vehicle directly to one end of the airport—
away from the terminal building and near a few hangars.
This area was quiet and discreet, the kind where even a switch of hostages wouldn’t be detected.
At the end of the runway, there was a set of mobile airstairs parked alongside three other vehicles, with a few people standing by them.
When the plane stopped, Gao Yi didn’t rush to act, but patiently waited for the phone to ring.
Soon after, the phone rang.
"Below the plane are my men; they can board the plane to take the person and leave. If you need refueling or to check the plane, the staff at Baghdad Airport will provide," the voice on the phone said. "Additionally, you can rest in Baghdad. I certainly won’t trouble you any further."
