The next whole day was spent in the preparation of the Joint Task Force and Catseye's Team. Elle and Erick were both separated from each other in the meantime.
As they had agreed, they would just see each other tomorrow evening at the meeting place which was set by the Azumi Twins. Elle's team would infiltrate the M.V Athena first.
Once Erick received her go signal then Erick's team would also take their moves according to their plan.
Since the negotiation would happen in a ship and in the middle of the sea, it was expected that they would need diving gears for them to conceal the other members' presence. Fortunately, the mission would happen during night time.
This was a secret mission of the Joint Task Force. Their Unit Chief and superiors had no idea about this. The Azumi Twins had warned Erick not to bring back-up nor inform the police authorities about this negotiation.
