Novel Full 301 301. Sid you are funny
“Sid??” A man said, surprised to see Markus crawl out from a bed in their room.
“Hello.” Markus said in a weak and embarrassed voice, something totally opposite to his actual behaviour.
“What are you doing here?” Another one asked.
“Guess I fell asleep over here.” Markus said while scratching his head.
“Pfft. Sid, you are so funny.” A man said while laughing hard, while others followed the suit.
“Now go quickly. We all are late. It’s 5 am already.” The first man said while looking at the wall clock again.
“Yes. Yes. I’ll go now.” Markus said hurriedly before fleeing away, making them laugh once again.
‘Good. Now I made them laugh at myself. Great Markus!’ Markus thought while entering his room.
He patiently waited for the next four days, doing his regular job to not let anyone suspect him.
Meanwhile he also paid attention to chats between other people, just in case he could find some useful information. He even befriended one of the guards leading his group.
Another week and he was completely ready for executing his plan. The reason why he had been waiting this long was to make sure that he was well prepared.
He had secretly observed all the nearby places around him during nights. One could say that he had already drawn a mental map of the entire place and knew all the areas through and through.
He knew that this was not some random match where he could get another chance. He had to give it his all to make sure that it was a one strike attack without giving much time to the opponents.
Thus finally on his 46th day, he was more than ready to kill that grandpa and then leave this place at once.
As usual he had random talk with the other four men from room no 4, had a meal with them and like last time, he mixed a little of valerian root for them to fall asleep.
After almost half an hour, those four men were already sleepy. Markus waited patiently for them to sleep while the other two roommates were still away, eating in the area they were allotted.
Once he was sure, he quickly went towards the bed, sliding beneath it before opening the lid.
‘Little lamb, wait for me a little more.’ Markus thought before climbing down, knowing he had no time to waste.
Unlike last time, he was now fully prepared. Wearing a black outfit, with headlight and weapons, Markus started his journey down the tunnel.
Thanks to his duty as a bodyguard, access to weapons and other devices like headlights, body armour became way too easy for him.
He was quick to climb down, crawl and climb up as well. Once near the lid, he took a deep breath, closing his eyes for a second.
He knew what awaited next. Little time, and a lot to do. And he couldn’t even afford to make any minute mistake or waste even half a minute.
‘Kizy, always remember – I love you.’ Markus thought about Kizy one last time before eventually opening his eyes, slowly pushing the lid a little to peak outside.
Fortunately there was no one seen in front of him, plus with the pitch black darkness, unlike last time’s little dawn glow, Markus couldn’t be anymore thankful to his lady luck.
He slowly lifted the lid from other sides as well, observing all four sides in full alert mode. And he could see two men walking away from him while one on the right side was walking towards his direction.
Markus immediately got rid of the cover before climbing out of the tunnel and running towards the window.
“Hey you! Stop right there.” The guard who was walking towards his direction yelled, gathering the attention of all other guards as well.
But Markus definitely was not going to stop now. He kept running while keeping a watch on his back, to make sure that no one could attack him from behind.
He was running his fastest, completely breathless, covered in cold sweat, his heart beating erratically, to reach the window in front of him.
He slightly turned around, only to see all those guards following him, while a few were removing their guns, a bad situation for Markus.
He instantly turned ahead, watching the window which was hardly ten metres away. Just when he was five metres away, he jumped in the air, entering the room with a loud crash, breaking the window glass while doing so.
Simultaneously, a gunshot was heard, both the sounds alerting everyone.
After a microsecond of silence, everything was back to action, like that of a movie.
Markus, who had bent down after the crash, got up, directly running towards the door on the left side, knowing this must be the adjacent room.
Within 5 seconds, he was already inside the room, finding the main switch. He could clearly hear the hurried approaching footsteps, along with a few more gunshots to scare him, though that was completely unnecessary and useless.
Once he found the main switch, he was quick to turn it off. He instantly took out his blade, cutting a few more wires, buying himself more time.
And before anyone could spot him in this room for the light connection, he left the room, running a little before pausing in track to not make any noise.
He started walking with light steps, relaxing a little after turning the switch off. He looked around, wearing the goggles which were given to them for training at night time, easily watching everything around him.
Right now, he was in the hall, standing behind a pillar safely, while inspecting the whole area.
‘That seems like dining room. There are three more doors. One must be grandpa’s room and after all this chaos, he would most probably come out of his room. Should I wait here patiently or search for him by myself?’ Markus was still thinking when he suddenly felt a cold and sharp object at his back.
