Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 260 Sophia's Revenge
Early the next morning, Shanying and his friends drove away from the villa, and soon he found that after circling Moscow for a few times, he was back near Red Square.

Watching Sophia direct the van into a parking lot, and then asking Shanying to follow her alone to the restaurant opposite the Four Seasons Hotel.

Shanying and the butcher looked at each other, motioned them to stay, then quickly chased after Sophia, and said in disbelief, "Is this the 'key restaurant' you mentioned?"

Sophia nodded slightly and said, "This restaurant was opened by an old friend of my grandfather. It was about to close down ten years ago, and I paid for him to continue running it.

Every killer who accepts a mission will come here to order a special set meal, and then they will get a contract and a deposit.

I wasn't really trying to protect myself from anyone, but I was paying commissions through restaurants in the downtown area to be more friendly to the killers."

Shanying nodded and said, "That's right. A compensation agreement was attached to the killer contract, saying that they had a stomachache after eating in the restaurant. The killers didn't even have to go through the money laundering procedures.

FUCK, no wonder the food in the restaurant is so greasy..."

Sophia was stunned for a moment, then shook her head slightly and said, "The chef of this restaurant spent 15 years in prison eating boiled potatoes, so no matter what he cooks, he likes to put a lot of butter in it."

Shanying nodded in understanding, and when Sophia pushed the door and entered the restaurant, he asked curiously, "Did you know that Xuehu is also familiar with this restaurant?"

Sophia shook her head and said, "I only saw a blood fox once or twice when I was very young. I don't remember what it looks like anymore."

While Sophia was talking, Shanying saw an old man in a wheelchair appear at the door...

The old guy has no hair anymore, but his complexion is still good. The bulging muscles on his exposed arms show that he must have been very strong in the past.

Sophia took the initiative to lean forward and hug the old man, saying: "Give us some breakfast..."

Shanying had never seen this old man before, and didn't know whether he should go up and say hello. However, the old man took the initiative to extend his hand to Shanying...

"Good job, kid!"

Shanying felt the strength on his palm and said with a smile: "Thank you!"

Generally, people with leg disabilities have very strong hands.

The old man clenched his palms tightly. Seeing that Shanying didn't feel anything at all, he sighed a little sadly and said, "I'm old. That bastard Xuehu is lucky..."

Shanying looked at the smiling face of the old man. He looked around the empty restaurant and asked carefully, "Arctic Fox?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, I don't deserve it. I'm a deserter!"

Shanying didn't ask any more questions. He looked at the empty restaurant, looked at Sophia curiously, and said, "What are you going to do next?"

Sophia did not answer Shanying's question, but looked at the old man and said, "Any news?"

The old man nodded and said, "The contract was sent out last night, and there will be news soon."

The old man turned the wheel and waved towards the kitchen, then said to Sophia, "Please sit anywhere. Breakfast will be here soon. By the time you finish eating, the person you are looking for will probably be here too."

Shanying was used to the big and bold way, and was really not used to Sofia's way. When he sat down and waited for breakfast, he looked at Sofia and said, "What are you going to do?"

After Sophia thanked the chef who poured her coffee, she looked at Shanying and said, "I made an appointment with the owner of a British equipment company. He provided the equipment and raw materials for Mario to build the methamphetamine factory."

Shanying frowned and said, "The boss of this so-called equipment company is from the British MI6?"

Sofia shook her head and said, "No, he is at most an informant, helping MI6 to collect some commercial intelligence from Moscow, and also helping to smuggle some contraband, such as arms..."

Shanying touched his chin and said, "You want to find the MI6 person through him?

How do you know he'll come here?"

Sophia took a sip of the coffee without sugar or milk and said expressionlessly, "Because his wife and three children are in my hands, he has to come to see me."

Shanying nodded suddenly. Mario ran away, so it was impossible for the MI6 agent not to run away after offending the top Russian dignitaries.

It is impossible to find them through conventional channels at this time, so the only option is to find someone who knows them.

After taking a look at the old man who had returned to the cashier counter, Shanying asked curiously, "The 'contracts sent out' you just mentioned are for the target's family members?"

Sophia nodded, then shook her head and said, "Some of them are, and some are directed at a few 'old friends' who brought Mario into the drug circle..."

Shanying was not used to Sofia's way of doing things. If it were him, he would definitely take a gun and find those people in person to vent his anger.

But he had to admit that Sofia's personality and way of doing things were very efficient, and she was particularly suitable for taking over the list in his hand.

Just as Shanying was thinking about things, the kitchen brought in two greasy breakfasts...

Shanying was indeed a little hungry. He finished the breakfast in front of him in big mouthfuls. Just when he was about to ask for a glass of water to relieve the greasiness, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit, with his shirt disheveled outside and a slightly bald head, pushed the door and entered the restaurant.

The moment he saw Sophia, the middle-aged man walked up to her with an angry look on his face...

Shanying turned his head to look at the middle-aged man who was breathing heavily. He pushed the plate in front of him aside, stood up and changed his seat, and asked for a glass of water.

"What on earth do you want, you crazy woman? Where are my wife and children?"

Sophia slowly used a knife and fork to cut the greasy butter potatoes on the plate, without even looking at the middle-aged man...

"They are very good. If you are willing to cooperate, they may not even know what happened." The middle-aged man sat opposite Sofia, holding his head in his hands for a few seconds, and said, "Sophia, I just made a few deals with Mario, I don't know what happened between you!
Why did you come to me? "

Sophia looked up at the middle-aged man with an innocent expression, and said expressionlessly: "David, do you want me to remind you who you work for?
When in the past have you been in the business of meth manufacturing equipment?

Give me some names, I need to know who are the people who destroyed the Milosevic family?"

After hearing this, the middle-aged man David said with a stiff expression: "Since you know who I work for, you should know that you can't afford to offend those people.

Sophia, I am willing to compensate you for your losses. I can refund you the money Mario spent on the equipment.

Please, leave my family alone and don’t let things get out of hand!”

Sophia looked into David's eyes with her green eyes, and only after he avoided her gaze unnaturally did she say, "Give me a few names..."

Sophia took out her phone and pulled out a photo to show David...

The photo showed a woman and three children sleeping in a car that was parked on a track.

As David looked at the photo with sweat on his forehead, Sophia said without any emotion: "The train will pass in 3 minutes. Give me a few names..."

David covered his face in pain and said, "Sophia, don't do this, we will all die!"

Sofia said coldly: "Sofia Milosevic is dead, you have 2 minutes..."

Sophia didn't scream, but David began to tremble all over...

He clasped his hands together and tried hard to control himself, but his body was completely out of control.

"One more minute..."

David heard this and suddenly shouted, "Let them go, let them go, I tell you..."

"45 seconds left..."

David collapsed, holding his head and yelling, "Please, let them leave..."

"30 seconds..."

David tore his hair hard and shouted loudly: "Aisha Hodel, codename Banshee, Edward Miller, codename Locksmith...

Let them go, let them go, please!!”

Sophia nodded slightly, slowly pulled up another photo, and said, "They are safe for now, and now I need more information.

Their height, their looks, their accents, their features, you know…”

Once David's psychological defenses were broken, he no longer had any ability to resist.

In response to Sofia's question, he said, "I don't know if the names they told me were real names, I only know that they used these two names when booking the hotel.

But their code names are definitely real!

The 'Banshee' is a pretty woman with black hair and brown eyes, about 30 years old, and speaks with a slight East London accent.

The 'locksmith' is of Irish descent, red-haired, about 35 years old, oh, there is a scar at the corner of his eye..."

David stood up, supported his hands on the table, looked down at Sofia, and growled, "I've told you everything I know. Let my family go."

Sofia ignored David's roar. She looked into his eyes calmly and said, "Which hotel did they stay in Moscow?"

David held the edge of the table tightly with both hands and cried out in despair: "They stayed at the Moscow Metropolitan Hotel for two nights a month ago. That's all I know. Is that enough?"

Sophia nodded slightly and said, "You can go now..."

David was stunned for a moment, then he said loudly: "Where are my family?"

Sophia glanced at her watch and said calmly, "They will probably wake up in the garage at home in 30 minutes..."

David heard this and said through gritted teeth: "Sophia, don't lie to me, or you will regret it!"

Sophia shook her head indifferently and said, "You definitely can't see it..."

David was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a strong arm around his neck...

The head chef, who had personally recommended the specialty dishes to Shanying, held David's neck with his strong arms. After just a dozen seconds, David fainted with a purple face.

Then a young man in chef's uniform came over pushing a trash can on wheels and helped the chef stuff David into the trash can.

When closing the lid, the young man did not forget to cut David's carotid artery with a knife.

I watched the young man put the sharp kitchen knife into his pocket, and then he and the chef pushed the trash can to the kitchen...

Shanying shook his head and said, "I will never come to eat again!"
