On hearing Francis's words Bloodwork could not resist those three magical words which sprouted from his mouth.
"What the fuck"
Both of them on both liness who spoke, breaking the awkward silence which was threating to continue.
"Aren't you getting a little too informal with me,... Bloodwork"
He spoke, his voice not pleased at all. Yes he definitely did not mind someone like Bloodwork who had been working for him for years to use a few informal words with him but this was going out of those boundries.
"Oh.... Sorry... It is just that I was a little startled by your ... " Exclusive information"
Bloodwork replied, his tone hid away if ge sid this as an sari astic remark or if it was an affirmation.
Taking a deep breath Francis choose to ignore this as well as he continued.
"Yes, The CCD squad 2 would be present there..... What else did you think huh, that i would pay you millions of dollars just to steal some child's toy... "
Now it was Francis who spoke, not bothering to hide the sarcasm in his words. Why should he anyways, he was the boss after all.
"Now listen...and don't you dare cut me off in between or you could say goodbye to the money..... "
Bloodwork cursed Francis's whole dynasty in his head and remained silent, if there was anything that he loved more than his life in this mortal world then that would be money, oh how dearly he wanted it.
Taking bloodwork's silence as an indication of his approval Francis continued.
"So..... As I was saying the squad 2 will be present at the HQ. They have come to pick the laptop up. I would have given you this task sooner but it took me some time to get the info.... Now as for your task. .. All you have to do is just get inside the base and come outside with the laptop. I don't know how you will do it... but know that you have to bring that laptop with you..... "
"What is in that laptop anyway"
Bloodworlk, forgetting Francis's words from a minute ago intureppted. It was not that he had any hope that Francis would tell him anything, he never had till now after all. But still he asked.
"Sigh........ You don't need to know that... And don't you speak in between you asshole."
This time bloodwork shut his mouth, there were not many times that Francis has called him an asshole after all.
"Ah yes... So as I was saying, you need to bring the laptop out. And after you do that.....you will just need to come to this hospital I am sending you the address of"
Waiting a few seconds in case Francis gad something else to say, Bloodwork said decided to speak up the doubt which had been bubbling up in his mind during the talk.
"But how am I even supposed to do that. Even if I manage to get hold of that laptop of yours there is no guarantee that i could be able to scape from the CCD. It is the famous squad second after all. I would be dead before I know it and the laptop you so desire would be back in it's place. They would definitely chase me to hell, my face has been pretty popular among there bureau..thanks to you"
As if he was expecting this Francis replied without taking any time.
"You for once have to not worry about that. The squad six would be absent from it's position for some time. You have to get the laptop during that interval. Also don't leave any evidence of your presence there, no one must know where the laptop went... it is important for me and for them as well. You would have already guessed anyway. The whole Squad 2 would never be send to guard an ordinary laptop"
Bloodwork sighted... He had his doubts regarding the matter which he wanted to voice out but decided not to. He loved money too much to turn back an opportunity like this one.
Sitting on the soft bed he gently touched the blue velvet bedsheet...
"...... Are you sure that the squad will gone for some time. I am not doubting you, but i am also not underestimating them. Wouldn't they suspect anything..... And what would you even do for the whole squad to leave their positions anyway. Every one of their member is enough to handle a high ranked villian..... "
Francis sighted. It annoyed him that he needed to answer so many questions. But still he decided to comply. Bloodwork always tried to get all the information about the place and the people he would target and that was the thing that made him his one of the most valuable chess pieces.
"Don't worry... I assure that the whole squad would be gone... They would have no other choice but to come... They might be the famous squad 2 but.... even they have their limits, they are after all, humans just like us....."
Bloodwork squinted his eyebrows. Francis's voice on the phone has changed a little. It was not a little.... how should he out it....the most suitable word might be disturbing..... He even sounded a little.... excited.
Noticing this change he could not help but ask out...
"What would be happening......Francis.."
For a few seconds he could oy head Francis's deep breaths on the phone..... The guy must have putted the mic too close to his mouth, that Or he must be breathing loud like hell.
"This time around... I thought that I should not send someone as I usually do..... Insted this time..... I would be attending the ceremony myself...... "
Bloodwork squinted his eyebrows a little more. Some wrinkles formed on his forehead..... Did he heard that right..... Francis... His anonymous boss would be comming here himself.
His train of thoughts was crashed before it could catch much speed as Francis completed his sentence.
"And..... Please refrain from calling me by my name..... That is boss for you"
