The moment the stun grenade exploded, Claire arrived outside the building.
There were more than thirty soldiers in this team. Naturally, it was impossible for all of them to squeeze into the room on the third floor where Wade was hiding.
Many of them split up to control the streets and stairs in front and behind the building to prevent Wade from escaping through the windows and stairs.
The sound of the stun grenade also attracted the attention of these soldiers.
Claire didn't stop. She swung directly above the two soldiers who were guarding outside the building.
In the air, two grayish-black whips popped out, and the tips instantly turned into small hammers.
Duang! Duang!
The two soldiers felt a pain in the back of their heads, and they passed out.
Claire landed silently, and the grayish-black hammers turned into whips. She rolled up the soldiers' submachine guns and gave them to her.
"Go." Claire put away her guns. When she looked up, two grayish-black threads shot out from behind her and stuck to a window on the third floor. She immediately flew up.
The moment she left the ground, the grayish-black whips hooked the pistols and magazines of the two unconscious men and retracted them behind her. They attached to her waist and became holsters and magazines.
Following the guidance of Gold Nugget in her head, Claire jumped into the window on the third floor and silently used the black threads to open the latch. After she got in, she walked through the pitch-black living room.
There was already the sound of someone getting up in the bedroom, but before anyone could come out, she opened the door and dashed out, not forgetting to close the door behind her.
When she came out, she was faced with a bunch of soldiers who were still shaking their heads and vomiting.
While she was still pulling the door open with her left hand, she had already raised the submachine gun in her right hand and fired from a crouching position.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Pa! With a stable shooting posture and a target no more than fifteen meters away, Claire's hit rate was extremely high, and she had already confirmed the number of targets and their distribution.
Shooting at half-body targets at close range was a compulsory course for her every vacation at Luke's villa.
It wasn't to train her aim, but purely to maintain her sense of the gun and avoid feeling unfamiliar with it after not touching it for a long time.
After the submachine gun finished firing, the dozen or so soldiers on both sides of the door were all shot in the lower half of their bodies and screamed.
Claire smashed the submachine gun against the wall to destroy the gun and charged over.
All the soldiers who were screaming on the ground were kicked in the head, ensuring that they wouldn't be able to move for ten minutes.
She then removed the magazine from their guns and pinched the magazine with her fingers, causing it to be slightly deformed and unable to be inserted into the magazine.
Very quickly, she was done. The soldiers who were blocking the way below had already noticed that something was wrong and had come up.
Claire had wanted to fight the other party head-on, but Gold Nugget's words made her change her mind. She jumped out of the window, and with a swing of the black thread, she crawled back through the window on the second floor.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, she finally opened the door and came out from another room. The two combat squads had already gone up to the third floor.
Her figure flashed, and she followed behind them.
The first group was checking the unconscious people on the ground, while the last two members of the second group vigilantly turned around to guard the staircase.
Their vision darkened as two fists the size of sandbags smashed into their faces.
Claire blocked the two men in front of her and raised her remaining submachine gun.
With a series of gunshots, the eight people who had just come up fell again.
Claire didn't forget to shoot the legs of the two men she had knocked out.
Gold Nugget had said that this was a tranquilizer gun, which could ensure that they wouldn't cause trouble without killing anyone.
Claire didn't want to kill anyone. She was a big star, and was satisfied as long as she could stop a crime.
After destroying these people's weapons, at Gold Nugget's reminder, she stuffed the two pistols and the submachine gun into the hole in the door, then turned around and left.
She found it odd. "Aren't we going to save the people inside?"
Gold Nugget said, "Ignore him. That guy isn't human. Hm, he's not a normal person. He'll be alive and kicking in a few minutes. I'm hungry. After we clean up the rest of them, we'll go home and have a bath and supper. "
Claire was still curious. "Who's that guy? Do you hate him that much? "
Gold Nugget said, "I don't hate him, but not many people like him. He's a troublemaker. You'll meet him sooner or later. "
As they chatted, they went downstairs to clean up the rest of the people.
On the New York side, Luke said, "Have you cleaned up the fingerprints? Carol, take Lorna and leave through the window immediately. Then, go to the location I gave you. Remember, don't let Lorna expose her abilities, got it? "
In an apartment only one room away from Wade's, Carol nodded and said in a low voice, "Got it."
She then grabbed Lorna and jumped out of the window, not forgetting to close it with her toes.
Carol was very agile. Even with Lorna on her back, she easily climbed from the third floor to the second floor and then jumped down.
After they landed, the two women ran in the alley.
Wade, however, found the guns that had been shoved in through the door strange. "Huh? They surrendered after just one stun grenade? This year's mercenaries aren't good enough. "
Vanessa, however, quickly came out of the kitchen and gave him her phone. "Your friend called."
Wade asked, "Did he ask me to pay him back?"
Vanessa rolled her eyes. "No."
Wade then took the phone with his left hand. Before he could say anything, he heard a familiar low British accent. "I've found someone to take care of the people outside for you. Hurry up and leave. Go to this address. Don't let anyone target you again. I can't save your wife every time. "
Wade was stunned. "I don't need you … Ugh."
The phone had already been hung up.
Vanessa looked at him. "What? Is there a problem? "
Wade said unconcernedly, "Let's go. We can leave now."
Vanessa asked, "Are the people outside still here?"
Wade said, "Hehe, my friend took care of them."
Even so, he still walked to the door, picked up the two pistols and magazines, and held them in his hands before opening the door.
He poked his head out and looked around. Then, he walked out with a surprised look on his face. "You really solved it? Could it be … that guy has a crush on me, so he's been watching my every move? Hm, wait, could it be Vanessa … "
Vanessa also came out from behind him. "What's wrong?"
Wade said, "It's fine. Let's go. Hm, I think I was shot in the crotch. Help me up. "
Vanessa looked disgusted, but she still helped him down the stairs quickly.
She didn't know that someone was muttering to himself, Perhaps V is still plotting against Vanessa? Otherwise, why would he mention saving her again? Also, last time, he actually knew that I wanted to watch him take a shower in the bathroom. He's definitely a peeping tom, isn't he?
No, no, no. What if V's trying to use Vanessa to arouse my jealousy and make me fall in love with him? Yes, that must be it. Wade let his imagination run wild as he was helped out of the apartment building by Vanessa.
