Wang Xin nodded his head, “Correct! A week before this happened, we took part in the seizure of the prostitution ring at the nightclub; Maya International. The club was run by people in Blood Scythes and so that same day, 4 officers that were involved in the raid were killed in their homes by bullets through their hearts.”
Every single officer there was horrified.
With a neutral expression, Wang Xin continued, “Don’t be so amazed over this, the battle between Blood Scythes and us isn’t something that happened in 1 or 2 days. The fact that they are asking for ransom for a merchant’s son this time means that they are directly provoking the entire SWAT team of Hangzhou!”
After saying that, Wang Xin clenched his hands and growled, “They treat human lives as grass. Since they are provoking us, then we’ll give them our response tonight. The mountains in the southern part of the city are where the transaction will take place. We won’t bring a single penny to them; instead, we’ll bring 25 SWAT officers armed to the teeth! Today’s orders are simple: shoot dead any evildoer you see!”
All of the SWAT members were moved emotionally, each person was raring to fight the injustice that was happening within their beloved city.
Wang Xin then said, “If the information I received is right, then they are already at the cliffside ready for an ambush. Therefore, we will have 4 teams ready to snipe them from afar. Li Xiao Yao, you will lead a team and scout out the area.”
I nodded, “Yes sir.”
“Good, I’ll say the rest on the road. Go to the warehouse to get your weapons and prepare to leave!”
……
At the weapons warehouse, all sorts of sniper rifles were laid bare. One of them was the AWSM and as well as the German G22 model with a night vision scope attachment. This was the rifle I had used while in the army for long ranged assignments. Inspecting the magazines, I loaded the rifle onto my back, and then inspected a M9 pistol. Finally, two army knives slid into their holsters by my legs.

At 7 pm, we took off right. Three ordinary cars rode off under the cover of the night.
My team had five members. Besides me, there were two scouts and two snipers. I was in charge of the long range killing as well as the close combat defense. In case the gang members get close, I would be the only one who could take them on.
Sitting in the car, my heart began beating slightly irregularly. The Blood Scythes had angered the police, meaning that they were prepared for a fight.
“If I were the gang members, I would have planted a bomb by the cliffsides, just in case the police got close…” A police officer smiled nervously.
Another officer narrowed his eyes, “Don’t worry, with our observational scans, we didn’t see any sort of explosive materials, you can feel safe about that.”
“Then why did they provoke us into action? In terms of our current technology, they don’t hold any advantages at all.”
“I don’t know…”
The two SWAT members stared at me, “Leader, what do you think?”
I stared outside the window and gave a small smile, “Even I don’t know. But whatever happens tonight, we’ll know. You guys…just have to be extremely careful…”
“Understood…”
……
At 8 at night, the car stopped by the mountain ridge and a few SWAT members climbed out. We secretly slipped into the darkness of the night; we all had to enter the cliffside without a single sound.
In the distance, an abandoned factory that didn’t have a single ray of light emitting from it. It only had the illuminations of the night sky, leaving the ground deathly pale in color.
Breathing deeply, a group of officers all crawled into the patches of grass before the small sound from Wang Xin came from our radios, “Have everyone scatter. The first group will charge in from the front, the second from the south, the third from the east, and the fourth group from the west…”
I nodded to myself and looked at the 5 people behind me, “Look for cover every 50 meters we advance and make sure you’re completely hidden!”
“Yes sir!”
Leaped into a bush 50 meters ahead. At the same time, a SWAT member held his hand out as he surveyed the area, “The infrared scans show no signs of activity…”
Without pausing, I moved forward 50 meters again. I was getting close now, there was only 300 meters left to go. From the direction of the broken wall, the cold air howled; it was the optimal time to strike at this moment.
“Still no sign of any life…” The lookout frowned. “What happened, were we just stood up?”
“It won’t happen, look there…”
Like a statue, a body lay within the desolate factory, dressed in a green shirt. If we were not wrong, it should be the son of the south city merchant. However, this body was obviously bait.
“How can there be no signs of life?” The observer clenched his teeth: “Could our infrared equipment be broken?”
“No!”
