Erad's heart was beating wildly. He knew that things were not going well. He subconsciously reached his hand to his waist, only to remember that he had handed over all his weapons at the door.
Erad quickly stepped back. He was standing at the door of the conference room. As long as he stepped back, he could reach the corridor outside and hide in the blind spot of the bullets. He also had a chance to grab his pistol from the bodyguard.
However, before he could take a step, he felt a gun pointed at the back of his head. The cold muzzle made his heart feel cold.
It was the two bodyguards at the door who were pointing their guns at him.
Manino had already planned this. The moment Erad walked into the conference room, the ending was already decided.
Manino said coldly, "Erad, take two steps forward, and then slowly raise your hands above your head! I know you're good at fighting, so you'd better not play any tricks. Otherwise, I'll shoot immediately! "
Manino saw that the bodyguards behind Erad were too close to him and was worried that an accident might happen. If Erad managed to snatch a gun, his men would be in trouble.
Erad's face was gloomy. He took two steps forward and slowly raised his hand according to Manino's request.
He said angrily, "Mr. Manino, what are you doing?"
Manino's muzzle was still pointed at Erad. He shrugged and said, "I'm just following Mr. Goodman's orders!"
"That's impossible! I didn't do anything wrong to the Gulf Group. Why would Mr. Goodman suddenly ask you to deal with me? "Erad cried." You must be using this incident to eliminate your dissidents! Manino, you're jealous that I have more room for development in the group than you! You're afraid that I'll climb over you in the future, right? "
"Erad, I'm not as dirty as you think!" Manino said calmly, "Your development has nothing to do with me. As long as you work hard for me, I won't embarrass you on purpose. Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just following my orders. I hope you won't blame me!" Manino said calmly.
"Humph! Are you lying to me? " Erad sneered. "After I took charge of the business in the state of Veracruz, my performance has been booming. Soon, I'll be one of the best in the Northeast Region. You're afraid that I'll threaten your position, so you're trying to suppress me! I want to talk to Mr. Goodman! I must expose your shameless lies! "
Seeing that Erad still didn't understand the situation, Monino couldn't help but feel a little sad for him.
However, Erad was not one of his men from the beginning to the end. The two of them only had a working relationship. Hence, Monino was not interested in explaining too much to Erad.
He gestured directly to a bodyguard behind him. The bodyguard immediately nodded and took out a handheld camera from his bag. He turned it on and stood aside to start recording.
Seeing this, Erade could not help but widen his eyes in disbelief.
He knew very well what the bodyguard's action meant. He had done it more than once.
Every time he wanted to kill someone, when he needed to record the video for the higher-ups, he would get someone to record the entire process.
The Gulf Group ran amok in Mexico, and they didn't worry about the video being circulated as evidence of murder.
Of course, the internal management of the Gulf Group itself was very strict, and this kind of information was of a very high level of confidentiality. The possibility of it being leaked was very small.
"You … What are you doing?" Erad finally started to panic.
Even when Monino pointed a gun at him, Erad did not think that the group would carry out an internal cleansing. He thought that the most serious situation would be nothing more than being imprisoned by Monino. He might even be tortured to a certain extent so that Monino could get a confession that was not beneficial to him.
It wasn't until the bodyguard took out the camera and started recording that Erad realized that Monino was going to kill him directly.
Monino pulled the trigger and loaded the pistol, then said, "Erad, I've said it. I'm just following Mr. Goodman's orders! I don't know anything about it. It's useless to ask me! "
"No! Wait! " Erad screamed in fear as he faced the shadow of death. "Monino, how dare you falsify Mr. Goodman's orders! Do you know what kind of consequences you'll bring to yourself if you kill me without permission? Don't do anything stupid! "
"Whether you believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me. I've told you, this is Mr. Goodman's direct order." Monino raised the pistol and aimed at Erad's heart. "I'm not telling you this to falsify Mr. Goodman's orders. I just hope you don't blame me. Of course, there's nothing you can do if you don't believe me. Whatever grievances you have, wait until you see Satan! "
"No …" Erad screamed. "I want to talk to Mr. Goodman! Even if he wants me to die! Let me die knowing what's going on! I want to ask … "
"Sorry, I'm afraid Mr. Goodman is not available to talk to you," Monino said.
His finger was already on the trigger, and he was slowly pulling it back. Erad was trembling in fear, and his heart was filled with despair.
Just then, Monino's cell phone rang. He glanced at Erad, thought for a moment, and handed the pistol to another bodyguard. He said, "Keep an eye on him. Don't even blink. If he does anything strange, don't hesitate to shoot him!"
"Yes! Mr. Monino! "The bodyguard hurriedly said.
Only then did Monino pick up his phone. He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Goodman calling. He hurriedly picked it up and said, "Mr. Goodman!"
Goodman asked impatiently over the phone, "How's it going?"
Monino hurriedly said, "We have him under control. We were just about to execute it!"
When Erad heard Monino's words, he knew that it was Goodman calling. He hurriedly shouted, "Mr. Goodman! Mr. Goodman! I'm Erad! Monino, you ordered him to kill me! This must be a misunderstanding! It must be a misunderstanding! "
Erad's strong desire to live made him want to make a final struggle. However, he was also afraid that the bodyguard would really shoot him. So, although he shouted loudly, his body did not move. He still stood there with his hands raised.
Goodman said unhappily, "Monino, hurry up and finish him off! Then send me the video and photos! "
"Yes, Mr. Goodman!" Monino replied.
Just as Monino was about to hang up, Goodman hesitated for a moment and said, "I won't talk to Erad anymore. Tell him that he has offended someone he shouldn't have offended. He must use his life to appease the other party's anger! However, considering that he has risked his life for the company all these years, this matter will end here after he dies. His family will not be implicated. "
"Understood!" Monino said, "Mr. Goodman, you are too kind!"
"Hurry up and execute it!" Goodman said, and then hung up.
Monino casually threw the cell phone on the conference table, then took the pistol from the bodyguard. He shrugged and said to Erad, "As you can see, Mr. Goodman doesn't want to talk to you. However, he asked me to pass on a message to you … "
Erad looked like he was grasping at straws. He hurriedly asked, "What is it about Mr. Goodman? Did he order you to detain me first? "
Monino looked at Erad with a trace of pity and said, "Stop dreaming … Listen carefully, Mr. Goodman's original words are: This time you have offended someone you shouldn't have offended. You must use your life to appease the other party's anger. However, considering that you have risked your life for the company all these years, this matter will end here after you die. Your family will not be implicated! "
After hearing this, Erad's body went limp. His eyes were lifeless as he murmured, "Why? Why is this happening? "
Erad could not accept such an ending. This morning, he had come to Quachacoalcos in high spirits to inspect the situation. He had also wanted to help Medel trample on the weak Huaxia people while he was at it. He did not expect that he would first be humiliated by the Huaxia people, and then the company would carry out an internal cleansing. He would even lose his life in Quachacoalcos.
When Erad set off today, he would never have thought that he had embarked on a path of no return.
Monino did not say anything more to Erad. He raised his gun again, stood a few meters away, and aimed at Erad's heart. Under Erad's eyes that were intertwined with fear, pleading, and despair, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang!
Erad's eyes suddenly widened. He clutched his chest and slowly fell to the ground. Then, he twitched a few times and completely stopped breathing.
Under his body, a pool of blood was silently spreading rapidly …
Monino held the gun with one hand and walked to Erad's front. He reached out and touched his neck. Then, he opened his eyelids and observed his pupils. Finally, he was sure that Erad was completely dead. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Erad's mobility was very strong. Although Monino was very confident in his marksmanship, he was still afraid that something might go wrong.
Normally, he would not do this kind of thing himself. A gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall! However, today's internal cleansing mission was recorded and Goodman was waiting to watch it. Therefore, he had to complete the entire process himself. Even if there was a certain amount of danger, he had to do it himself.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened.
Monino stood up and casually threw the gun to a bodyguard. Then, he took out a silk handkerchief from his suit pocket and elegantly wiped his hands. He said to the bodyguard who was recording the video, "Go and take a few photos. Then, upload the video and photos immediately!"
"Yes! Mr. Monino! "
The bodyguard hurriedly went to Erad's body and took a few photos from different angles. Then, he uploaded the video that he had just taken from the camera and saved it on his laptop.
Monino took the laptop and hesitated for a moment. Initially, he wanted to edit the video when Goodman called, but on second thought, he felt that the video should not have any traces of editing. It had to be original. Even if it was to be edited, it had to be Goodman's decision.
So, he compressed the photos and videos and sent them to Goodman through one of the internal email accounts of the Bay Area Group.
After sending the email, Monino immediately gave Goodman a call. He respectfully reported the situation on his end and told Goodman that he had already sent the video and photos to him.
Goodman heard this and said, "Very good! Monino, you stay in Kuacacoalcos to clean up the mess. Also, you must ensure the safety of the Chinese shipping company! "
"Understood! Mr. Goodman! "Monino hurriedly said.
After hanging up, Monino quickly called Medel and asked him to recall all the armed men he had sent out. He also asked him to rush back to the Kuacacoalcos branch for questioning.
Medel was only a leader of the Gulf Corporation. After receiving a direct order from Monino, the head of the Northeast region, how could he dare to be negligent? Although this order conflicted with the one given to him by Erad, he did not dare to question it. He hurriedly carried it out.
Medel dismissed all the armed men who participated in the operation. Then, he quickly rushed back to the Kuacacoalcos branch in a car with a few followers.
The branch had already been taken over by armed men from other regions. The moment Medel entered the building, he was disarmed and brought to the conference room.
Medel trembled as he walked in. The first thing he saw was Erad's body lying on the ground. He was so scared that his legs went weak and he collapsed on the floor.
It was much easier to deal with Medel. Monino did not feel as pressured as when he faced Erad just now.
Under his interrogation, Medel quickly spilled the beans from a bamboo tube. Once Monino understood the whole story, he quickly called Goodman to report.
When Goodman heard that a city leader had almost caused the destruction of the Gulf Corporation, and that he had been forced to execute Erad, who he admired very much, he could not help but be furious. He immediately ordered Monino to eliminate all the people involved.
Thus, Monino began a massacre in Kuacacoalcos. Not a single one of Erad's bodyguards escaped, including Medel and Erad.
Juan, the head of Erad's bodyguards, had already been ordered to deal with the bodyguards. However, just as he finished dealing with them, the armed men sent by Monino arrived. Juan realized that the situation was not good. He immediately took out his pistol and retreated, hoping to escape.
However, he was alone, and it was hard for him to do anything alone. Monino's men finally managed to kill Juan after paying the price of a few lives.
This was the first time Monino had suffered a loss since he was ordered to carry out the mission. However, the loss was not big, and Monino did not care too much.
Then, Monino personally led the elimination of the local politicians who followed Erad to the Huafeng Ship. In the next few days, these politicians were all assassinated.
These were all stories for later. After Goodman, who was far away in Faye Manor on the Caribbean Sea, figured out everything, he personally recorded a video. Then, he edited the video of Monino eliminating Erad. Finally, he packaged the two videos together with the photo of Erad's body.
After doing all this, Goodman nervously dialed the satellite phone number that Charlie Koch left him.
