The Blacklist

Chapter 48 Kill the enemy, save people and lead the team away

Leaving Alam, who had little fighting ability, outside the entrance, Carrie and the other two sneaked into the third underground floor and immediately dispersed to both sides, Gina and Elizabeth in one group, and Carrie in another group, and began to observe the situation on the scene.

More than 40 people led by Cooper were captured by Garrick. All of them had their hands tied behind their backs with restraints and were forced to kneel in the middle of the hall. In addition to the base personnel, there were Dembe and Zeng Luli; while Reddington and the injured Donald hid in the "box".

Seven mercenaries stood guard around the area, and Garrick, who looked nasty, stood in front of the box with a pistol in hand, cursing loudly! At this time, he had lost his patience, reached out and grabbed a man from the group of captives, pointed the gun at the back of his head, and shouted, "Reddington, if you don't open the door and come out, I will start killing one a minute!"

Reddington, who had just bandaged Donald's wound and performed an autologous blood transfusion, stood in front of the door inside the "box" and looked at the scene outside through the bulletproof glass. When he saw the person caught by Garrick, his heart immediately jumped. It was his loyal assistant, accountant Zeng Luli! But he knew that as soon as he went out, Garrick would definitely take him away immediately. How could he fail when it was obvious that reinforcements had already attacked?
"I'll count to three. If you don't come out, this is the first one!" Garrick shouted frantically, "One, two..."

At this moment, two low "chi chi" sounds of silenced weapons were heard, and Garrick's right wrist holding the gun was directly broken by two consecutive bullets - in order to save people, Carey specially replaced it with a modified FN57 with an extended barrel, equipped with SS190-B explosive bullets, which were specifically designed for soft targets, with amazing effects.

This ammunition was also specially customized by him. It uses a copper-armored hollow point bullet and contains a 1.5-gram lead core. When fired from a special FN6 with a 57-inch barrel, the initial velocity reaches 550 meters per second. After using a silencer, it will slow down to 420 meters per second. The penetration power of the special bullet is very low, only half of that of the standard SS190 bullet, but after hitting the target, the outer armor of the bullet will burst under the action of the high-temperature melted lead liquid inside, and its lethality to soft targets is considerable.

Garrick, whose wrist was broken, was stunned for a moment, then he howled loudly, staggered back two steps, sat down on the ground, grabbed his bleeding wrist with his left hand, and was in so much pain that he couldn't speak...

Everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment. Before the seven mercenaries could react, they were covered by a hail of bullets from three P90s that came one after another. They didn't even have time to fire back before they were shot to pieces!
Just when everyone was not able to react, three cool figures wearing tactical helmets and long black leather windbreakers walked into the hall. The P90s in their hands seemed to still be emitting light smoke!

Two of them were obviously women. They stepped forward quickly, took out tactical pliers and cut the restraints of the people one by one. The other man walked to the control console of the "box" and started operating it... The "box" that Garrick had tried so hard to open before actually opened with a "click" sound!
Reddington was the calmest one. He rushed out without caring about others. He went to Garrick, kicked him unconscious, squatted down, took out a restraint from his waist, and stabbed it hard on his broken arm to stop the bleeding. Then he calmed down, pulled out the first aid kit from his tactical vest, and bandaged him.

Everyone now understood what he was doing. He was afraid that Garrick would die, so he wanted to spare his life! At this time, they saw the man in the windbreaker quickly walked into the "box", checked Donald's injuries, took out something like a medicine bottle, opened it, poured the contents into Donald's mouth, and then quickly came out.

Cooper then reacted and asked, "Who are you?" In fact, he and everyone else had an answer in their hearts, but no one said it directly.

The man in the windbreaker turned to him, as if looking at him, raised his hand and made an "OK" gesture, then stepped forward and grabbed Garrick, whose wrist was bandaged, turned and left, and the other two women in windbreakers immediately followed; Reddington made a gesture, and Dembe and Zeng Luli came over immediately, and the three of them followed, and the group quickly walked out!
Then, the lights on the ceiling of the hall lit up one after another...

Then, Alam ran in with a laptop and shouted, "Glad that you are all okay! I have repaired the backup power, and the communication system is also restarting..." Everyone looked at him with a strange expression, not knowing what to say!
Mira rushed into the "box" to check on Donald's condition. Cooper arranged for the service department to count the losses, report to the headquarters, and contact the hospital. He then pulled Aram aside and whispered, "Are they Kerry, Gina, and Elizabeth?"

"I don't know!" Alam said immediately, "I was hiding in the machine room to repair the communication equipment. They came in and took me to the door here. They didn't say a word to me the whole time... I don't know who they are!"

Cooper glared at him but said nothing. He knew why he said that, but didn't know what to say. He could only let him go for the time being and let him go to work.
-
Carrie led everyone to the underground parking lot and left the post office in two SUVs. Gina drove a car in front with Elizabeth and Zeng Luli in the car; Dembe followed in a car with Carrie and Reddington sitting in the back seat, and the unconscious Garrick was stuffed in the trunk.

Carrie, who had put away his helmet, looked at Reddington and said with a smile, "How about it, Old Red, do you think I saved your life this time?"

"Forget it!" Reddington let out a long sigh, "Although I can finally hold on in the 'box', Zeng Luli, Dembe and the others are in danger... Oh, and Cooper and the others!"

In fact, Carrie knew that the old man was not telling the truth. With his character, as long as Elizabeth was not in danger, he would not open the door even if Zeng Luli, Dumby, Cooper and others died in front of him! In other words, because he had changed the plot before, as long as Elizabeth did not enter the post office, he would be fine.

Of course, if he could save someone, he would still do so, like Donald, so he still had to praise him, "Old Lei, I didn't expect you to be such a good person. You saved Donald and gave him a blood transfusion. Very good! Here, give him a drink first..." As he said that, he took out a large box of fresh milk and handed it over.

Reddington didn't hesitate and took the shot and drank it. He transfused 500cc of blood to Donald, who really felt a little weak.

"Demby, let me give you a bottle of water first. I'll treat you to a drink when I'm done." Carrie opened another bottle of mineral water and handed it to the front.

"Thank you!" Dumby took it and said.
