( 23 April )
Location: Xuang Hou Museum, Beijing, China.
Before late evening reaches LA, the squad was ready to fly to China with their small luggage except for the girls.
Grace was very concerned about her makeup and dress. She cants even let it all left in Edwin's house.
"Hey, Aaron look!" Leonardo shouted from afar. He was wearing a beautiful hat and giving Aaron a blown kiss from the souvenir shop at the airport.
"Damn you Leo stop acting like a kid and come here!" Edwin shouted. For him, the younger's priority and safety came first before himself. That's why he tends to mad at them most of the time.
[ Skipped time lapse ]
They finally arrived safely at the National Airport of Beijing and Nanami stretches her body as soon as they landed her feet on the airport.
A fine figured Chinese man waving at them as a sign that he's here to pick them up. Harry introduced them to Wang, the Chinese man.
He's one of the Tiger's support unit in China which make their day easier than Edwin expected.
Wang's house was not close yet not so far either from the airport but they could see the shiny large museum standing proud in the middle of the city.
After they arrived, the boys took every luggage out from Wang's car and put it in their room.
Despite the size of Wang's house, the girls have to share one room and so do the boys.
[ Late evening ]
Frost was staring at Edwin who's busy working on a black lace fan on a table in the middle of the living room.
Edwin looks at his right, and call Frost to sit beside him.
Edwin casually fans Frost lightly and suddenly move instantly in horizontal movement with a blade at the end of the fan.
Frost was amazed at how they disguise the weapon very well.
"The girls' stuff was perfectly designed so they could act in an instant while manage to get the victim off guard," Edwin explained to Frost as he shows Angeline's lipstick which he invented specially for the girls.
Frost took it and push a small button which suddenly makes a one-metre red laser flash from the lipstick.
"It may look like a fancy lipstick yet it's actually a weapon that could cut through most of the metal in one slash" Edwin took it back from Frost's hand.
Though he knew Frost is used to weapon yet he didn't trust him to take good care his circumstance.
Natsumi has a special weapon and that's her hair stick. "It acts similar to the electrocution and zapped using the tip. When she removed the end of the stick, there's also a hidden dagger in it."
Edwin shows him Natsumi's hair stick which has a small red Pheonix-liked decoration at the of the orange small jewel.
The pair of black hair stick was beautifully created by Edwin to fit Natsumi cuisine and habit as sometime she likes to tie her hair in a bun instead of a ponytail.
Edwin really had a hard time communicating with Frost as he doesn't like to talk much. Luckily Grace came and asked Frost to get some rest before the gala.
Approximately about 1 hour and 30 minutes, Edwin knocked at the girls' room to check at their condition. "Is everyone doing alright?" he asked Grace.
They already busy doing their nails and prepare their fancy dress for tonight. "Here," he handed the fixed item.
"Thanks, Edwin" Grace gave him a kiss. He smiled and close back the door. "So when will I get to be an auntie?" Natsumi joked as she shouted from the corner of the room.
Their relationship started about 3 years ago and they love each other. Grace's tried to hide her face with her black and the girls giggled looking at her.
In about 30 minutes left, Angeline was busy finding her blue ice crystal necklace which Frost gave her back then.
I can't find it she searched every pocket in her luggage and couldn't find it. "You mean this?" He stands in front of the open door and Angeline blew a sigh.
"I swear I bring it along with me" She stands up. "Bring along? You left it in my room some time ago" He flicked her forehead.
"Did I?" She asked and he simply nodded. "Go inside and get ready" He pushed her in.
"Curious...." Lucy stared at Frost.
Night falls at China and the squad began their operation smoothly as they wanted.
"Everyone's set?" Edwin's voice clearly could be heard through the mini devices.
Some of them replied with a nod and some of them told Edwin that they're ready in position.
Aaron was busy hacking the CCTV system using his mobile phone so it Harry could eye the position of the target from outside.
The gala was fulled by billionaires and they wear such an elegant dress with a fancy mask covering their face.
The smells of expensive perfume were smelled every corner of the hall making Frost's nose uncomfortable.
They were ready with their partner.
Edwin with Grace
Frost with Angeline
Aaron with Lucy
Leonardo with Natsumi
While Benjamin and George were ordered to roam the place and act like a stranger to each other.
"You look pretty as always" Frost compliment her as he looks at her in a beautiful navy blue dress.
Though her beauty was hidden under the navy blue Venetian luxury metal eye, her eyes are enough to seduce someone to death.
"You look very handsome too" She smiled.
Both of them wore the same clour and Frost wear a navy blue necktie to match his partner.
After about 20 minutes enjoying their glass of wine, an announcement was made to tell everyone that the bidding session started in 5 minutes left.
The price starts with 30,000 dollars. Minutes pass and they throw up the price to 100,000 dollars.
"The price lit. but I'm not gonna lose it." Leonardo chuckled and shouted out the price.
"300,000 ¥" He smiled. Edwin and the other shocked looking at him. "Dammit Leo, we didn't come here to bid" Edwin cursed.
"600,000 ¥" Aaron raise his hand after another higher price was said by a random billionaire.
"Aaron not you too" He facepalm. The price was increasing before they notice and a woman's voice shouted from the back row.
"1,000,000 ¥," Lucy said.
"3,000,000 ¥" Followed by Natsumi.
"Any price higher than that?" The man on the stage asked the crowd of people.
"10,000,000 ¥" Angeline shouted from the centre of the second row.
Edwin gasped as he looked at Grace. "Look what they've done. They influenced the youngest. The general must be wondering where his money gone" Edwin gasped.
"Wait...did anyone hear something?" Lucy asked them. The squad began to keep quiet and focused their surrounding.
"I didn't hear anything..." Frost spoke and a loud sound of a missile came from his front left.
Boom!!!
The left wall of the museum was broke by a missile from the enemies' weapon.
Angeline used her teleportation power to teleport the innocence to the safe place.
Her magic was mostly sealed and she had a major problem in using it in the meantime.
"Rosy, " Frost catches her from falling on her knee. Her left rib was hurt and Jay told her to rest yet she was too stubborn to hear a thing.
"Don't mind me, Frost" She slightly pushed him. She tried to hide her pain away by pointing at the innocence who tried to escape.
"Help them" She ran towards the gem in her dress and snatch it before their enemy reaches it first.
"We meet again...Rose"
