"This…! This is information about the victims who were killed!" Caspian voiced out his shock as he skimmed through the documents.
Not only was there an entire biography about the victims, they even managed to get information on the victim's schedules, work, personal life, studies, and much more.
He put down the documents with a sigh as he rummaged through the drawers and found some packets of drugs which he just left there.
Caspian took photos of every document that he saw and arranged them properly before he left the room.
As he left, he saw Abby who also just finished scanning the details on the rooms on her side. She then said, "There's an interrogation room here, but there's blood all over the room. If this is not a criminal organization, I don't know what is."
"Oh, and backup should arrive in 15-20 minutes," Abby added as she stretched her limbs, emphasizing her curves.
However, Caspian didn't have the time to admire curves as he said, "I found some documents containing evidence of money laundering from big business groups in this city and them having a contract with the people here to not expose their crimes for 50% of their business' profits."
"Not only that, but they also had hit contracts and many more," Caspian added.
Abby's eyes furrowed as she said, "So this place is the den of a large criminal organization within the city then…? But how did the renovation here become unnoticed?"
"A person of power is probably supporting them, most likely a politician…. We just don't know who and why…."
Caspian then tapped his foot while saying, "One more important thing. I found a folder with a large 'eliminated' stamp on it and when I opened it, it contained personal information of the recent murder victims, from Delia, to the latest one."
Abby's expression staggered as she became a lot more solemn, "That means they are the ones who killed those people…."
"Yeah. Scarlet and I discussed the possibility of multiple murderers instead of one. Now it seems that it's true."
They were about to continue their conversation but they heard voices heading straight to where they were.
Caspian and Abby then glanced at each other and nodded their heads as they hid in one of the cabinets. It was tucked in the corner of the hallway, so it was barely noticeable.
They then shut their mouths and breathed slowly so they wouldn't be heard. Abby peeked lightly out the small gap in the cabinet doors.
As the people passed by, she noticed that those people were armed. Abby beckoned Caspian that they were armed and Caspian nodded but he saw Abby quietly sighing in relief.
Abby and Caspian then started to listen in to those armed men's conversations.
"Last night, there was this police bitch, she looked really fucking cute, so me and Jeff kidnapped her," One of the voices said.
Another one then spoke, "Yeah! Bitch had a tight little pussy! You know what's funny, we actually livestreamed the whole thing! Haha, people thought that she was just a porn actress!"
"Damn! I knew I should've joined you guys!"
Abby and Caspian were furious as they heard that. Not only were they killers and extortionists, but they were also rapists. Just as furious expressions were etched on their faces those people left the spot they were in.
But suddenly, one of the voices spoke, "Ah, shit! I left my towel in the cabinet. You guys go on ahead."
Footsteps then got closer to where Caspian and Abby were hiding and it stopped just outside the door. The person who approached then opened the door and saw Abby and Caspian pointing their gun at him.
"Ahh!" The man couldn't help but scream as he fell down with his hands up.
"Dude, why the fuck did you scream! Fucking hurts the ears."
Caspian then lightly swiveled his gun, beckoning the man to reply. With a frightened expression, the man replied in haste, "Ah, I'm fine! A fucking cockroach jumped on my face."
"Damn, you got scared of a fucking cockroach? Kinda shows how much of a little bitch you are."
"Shut the fuck up!"
Caspian then turned to look at Abby, causing Abby to move immediately as he tied the man's arms and feet using the clothes he wore.
Caspian then crouched as he said in a threatening tone, "Don't make a noise, or I will shoot, do you understand, you rapist bastard?"
The man nodded his head frantically as he bit his lip. He didn't think he'd end up in this state as he was usually the one who did this to other people.
Caspian then asked Abby in a quiet tone, "When will backup arrive?"
Abby quickly glanced at her watch as she said, "In about ten minutes."
"We can't keep this guy forever. We have to subdue the others."
"That would be suicide! When I peeked earlier, there were only a few of them but what if more arrives?" Abby exclaimed quietly.
"That's a possibility… but if we don't do anything, they might still find out. Let's just capture them and hope for the best."
Abby sighed as she nodded. She then turned toward the man they captured and asked him, "Where are the others?"
"T-they're in the bathroom."
Just as Abby was about to just head straight on, Caspian suggested, "We should get better equipment in their weapon storage. Just in case more arrive we can have a chance to fight back."
Abby agreed as Caspian pulled the man up while pointing his gun at the back of his head while whispering, "Stay quiet."
They then headed toward the weapon storage and quietly entered it. As they entered, the each picked up one rifle that the criminal organization smuggled like the Galil and got multiple magazines.
As Caspian looked around, he couldn't help but whisper, "They even have bulletproof vests here…."
He then looked at the man who guarded by Abby and asked, "How did you smuggle these guns here?"
The man didn't answer, and Abby pushed the gun on his head, letting him feel the cold barrel. He shivered from the thought of his head exploding so he hurriedly said quietly, "I don't know, I'm only a worker here! They don't provide us any information aside from missions!"
Caspian sighed as he knew that they couldn't get any more information from that bastard.
Caspian then rummaged through the room thoroughly and got some duct tape which he used to cover the man's mouth. He replaced the cloth they used to tie him up and used rope.
They left the man in the weapon storage as they prepared to subdue his companions. Just then, one of the men in the bathroom shouted, "Hey, Jeff! Where the fuck are you? Boss is gonna be mad if we're late!"
Hearing that, Caspian opened the door and saw the two men showering. Hearing the door open, one of them said, "For fuck's sake, Jeff. Your slow ass is gonna get us in trouble—"
When the man turned around, he saw a barrel pointed at his face. Caspian and Abby then said simultaneously, "Hands up! Don't resist, or we will shoot."
The men afraid of getting killed did as they were told. Abby and Caspian then started tying them up with the rope they found and led them to the weapon storage.
Just as they reached the outside of the storage room, a voice suddenly sounded out, "My, some rats managed to enter my den, how surprising. Good thing they didn't see the cameras I set up outside."
Just as the voice was heard, the men shouted, "Boss! Help us, please!"
Caspian and Abby turned around immediately and prepared themselves for the worst. They saw a somewhat fat man wearing a full suit tucking his coat. That man then said, "Shoot."
The two men that Abby and Caspian captured paled since they were in front of them. The person's men then shot, immediately ending the life of the two men.
"Fuck!" Caspian shouted as he pushed Abby into the room, causing his leg to get shot.
He then grabbed his radio transmitter and shouted loudly, "*Static* Code 131 in the abandoned factory building 308 in Elm street! Backup needed ASAP! It's in the underground are of the facility! It's hidden behind some stacked machinery! *Static*"
Just as he said that, the radio transmitter sounded, "*Static* Roger, we're on the way. We'll arrive there in about two minutes. *Static*"
"Shit, we need to hold out for two more minutes!" Caspian exclaimed as he winced from the pain of getting shot.
Abby worriedly looked at him as she said, "Just stay down! I'll handle them!"
Caspian gritted his teeth as he grabbed the cloth that he got and wrapped it around his leg to stop the bleeding. "Don't worry; I'll help!"
Caspian peeked and saw that there were about twenty armed people or more slowly approaching them.
Just as they noticed Caspian, they shot, causing him to jump back. "There are about twenty them and they're slowly approaching."
Abby nodded her head at the information as she peeked lightly and immediately shot.
There was a thud signifying that Abby managed to eliminate one of the threats. The other armed people shot back, but fortunately, Abby had already retreated.
"Your aim is really one of the best," Caspian smiled despite the dangerous situation they were in.
"Thanks for the compliment! I might just treat you to some more booze if we manage to get out of here alive," Abby replied, a smirk on her face as she peeked out again, but the enemies immediately shot the moment something moved so Abby unfortunately didn't hit anyone.
Caspian pulled his radio transmitter as he said, "*Static* Status on the backup? There are about twenty people here. We got one, but they are slowly approaching us, and we're trapped. *Static*"
"*Static* We're almost there! Sit tight; we have more than enough people! *Static*"
Caspian then tried out his skill as he peeked and pulled the trigger immediately, a short "URgh!" sounded as a thud was heard before an immediate barrage of bullets.
"Get out of there, you fucks!" The man who wore a suit replied with a loud, angry voice. "Did that retard send you here? Unfortunately your gang can't compare to us!"
Hearing that, Caspian and Abby looked at each other with confusion apparent on their faces.
"They think we're a part of their enemy gang? Haha!" Abby couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Caspian.
Caspian also chuckled lightly as he whispered, "They wouldn't expect us to be cops anyway. After all, you aren't wearing your uniform."
Just as Caspian laughed, he felt the pain on his leg worsen as he forcefully stood up with a bullet lodged in his leg.
Seeing his pained expression, Abby worriedly said, "Are you alright?"
"Yeah I'm fine, don't worry," Caspian forced a smile.
Just as they closed in the doorway, there was a loud shout from the other side of the hallway, "Freeze! Drop your weapons and raise your hands up! If you move, we will shoot!"
Caspian who was kneeling on the ground couldn't help but sigh in relief as he said, "About time they showed up."
"Fuck!" The man wearing the suit cursed as he turned around and saw tons of officers pointing their guns at them.
One of the officers shot the man's leg as he saw him move and he immediately fell down.
Seeing that their boss was on the ground, they dropped their weapons and raised their hands.
Just then, Caspian and Abby got out of the weapon storage. Caspian was limping slightly due to being shot in his leg and hung his arm around Abby to have enough support for him to stand up.
The man wearing the suit got out and angrily shouted, "You called the cops!? You fucking gang bastards actually called the fucking cops!?"
"What the fuck are you talking about, fatso. We are cops."
