July 20, 20X2 (Midnight to Dawn)
Upper Docks
While the Zhao Manor was slowly being drenched in blood, at the small place where Yang and his friends hid, a whirl of hurried movements built a hurricane. Men were strapping guns to their holsters, hiding knives, ammunition, and other dangerous gadgets that Chang Min had given them.
Hao Ren was tasked to stay in the apartment, as he had no experience or means of surviving this level of threat. Although he wasn't making the killing, doesn't mean he had a lesser task. In fact, without him, this operation would probably take longer, and they'd have lesser manpower. Through him, they had eyes, ears, and connection even when they separate.
Seeing everyone standing before him with backs straight and jaws clenched in forced determination, Hao Ren handed them their communicators while he asked, "Are you all ready?"
Everyone nodded.
