Chapter 113 - 112: Loser Treats to a Meal
Ling Chen raised an eyebrow and glanced at Tang Yuan. The person on the phone was speaking fluent English, the same person who had contacted the mercenaries before.
"What do you want?" Although his identity was exposed, Ling Chen still remained calm, showing no sign of panic.
"Mr. Ling, asking that question is pointless, but you have indeed piqued my interest. If I’m not mistaken, you have quite the background. Unfortunately, no matter how significant your background is, you’re destined not to leave here alive tonight."
Ling Chen listened closely to the man’s voice, feeling that it sounded familiar, but he couldn’t immediately recall where he had heard it.
"How did you know we would come here?" He was puzzled; while he was monitoring the mercenaries contacting the other party, those mercenaries definitely hadn’t leaked any information about their capture. So he was curious about how the other party had found out.
"Actually, it’s simple." The man on the phone chuckled proudly, "I indeed gave them contact numbers, but not just one, I gave them two. If the mission was completed successfully, they would call one number. Should they get caught, they would reveal the other number to inform me of the mission failure."
So that was it!
This guy was indeed cunning, preparing for all contingencies.
"Mr. Ling... oh, and that unknown gentleman, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t chat with you any longer. I hope you like the arrangements I’ve made for you, hahaha!" With a loud laugh, the other party hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Ling Chen also heard a ’beep’ from within the car. Almost instantly, Ling Chen and Tang Yuan reacted, hurling themselves to either side of the Mercedes-Benz.
