Chapter 176 Observation and Attack
It wasn’t a big deal to kill thirty people in neuf trois. That place was an illegal brothel anyway.
However, his target tonight was a villa in the suburbs, and it would be tricky if he caused a fuss. He had to make sure that he didn’t leave any direct evidence behind.
It would be tricky if he was caught on camera.
So, he had to disguise himself when he went around preparing and making backup plans during the day.
The people that Luke traded with were all Mr. Nobodies in the dark corners of the city. It was impossible for anyone to track him down through them, unless they had a super ability like Sharp Nose.
Luke then created several gadgets in an empty house he found, and by six in the evening, he was ready to go.
Everything was set. He would save Kim tonight.
Night fell once more.
It had been drizzling in Paris the entire day, so it got dark earlier than usual.
Luke observed his target from the top of a building a kilometer away with a telescope.
After seven o’clock, several luxury cars entered the villa one by one, and several groups of people of varying ethnicities got out. Each group had a boss and two to four bodyguards.
It was thus very easy for Luke to figure out the number of people in the villa.
There were five groups of people. Including the bodyguards, there were 21 people in total.
The villa had more than ten security guards. There were also five guards on the lookout outside, and a couple of their partners came out at one point to talk to them.
In conclusion, there might be around forty enemies in the villa.
The good news was that the 21 people who had arrived by car were clearly guests. The security guards were very courteous toward them.
The bad news was that the security guards would be more difficult to deal with since they were more professional than the gangsters that Luke had eliminated before.
However, there weren’t a lot of them.
If there had been more than thirty security guards, Luke would have to be extra careful.
But since there weren’t many of them, Luke could easily wipe them out first.
Were they innocent? How could they be innocent when they protected people who kidnapped and sold girls?
Seeing that everybody had entered the villa except for the few security guards who were on watch outside, Luke made his move.
Under the cover of night, he quickly approached the villa.
He ran silently and at an astonishing speed as he passed the flowers, grass and trees.
When he was five hundred meters away from the villa, Luke pressed a button and activated the interference device in his backpack.
It only had a radius of around a hundred meters, but could cover most of the villa and cause most of the electronic equipment within range to malfunction.
Naturally, it would alert the enemy, but it was the easiest approach that Luke could think of. He had to stop these people from contacting the outside world.
After activating the interference device, Luke sped up.
Luke was headed for the main villa building, which was only thirty meters away from the pier next to the river.
Luke avoided the cameras with an anti-detection device and pressed forward quickly.
It only took him thirty seconds to reach the main building after he activated the interference device.
Once he was close enough, Luke flung out a rope with a hook on one end and the other end wrapped around his wrist.
The moment the hook caught and held, Luke sprang up with the momentum from his charge forward.
In less than five seconds, he landed on the edge of the roof of the four-story villa.
Luke grabbed a windowsill on the fourth floor and loosened his grip on the rope.
Then, he exerted his strength and broke the lock of the window to open it.
After he climbed into the room, he took out two black pieces of plastic-looking equipment.
He connected one to an electric socket and the other to a telephone wire in the room. Then, he pressed a button.
The lights in the villa flashed, before they all went out.
Several seconds later, the emergency lights came on and lit up most parts of the house.
But that was fine for Luke.
The emergency lights were vastly different from regular lights, and half the villa was still dark.
The rest of the place wasn’t as bright as usual, either.
For Luke, who was becoming more and more familiar with Sharp Nose, the dark was his best asset.
He stood up and grabbed the M1911 at his waist, before he left the room.
Activating Sharp Nose, he went downstairs without any hesitation.
Those people wouldn’t come upstairs anytime soon. They were too few of them to search all four floors of the villa all at once.
When Luke reached the bottom floor, he took two daggers off his belt and flung them out when he turned a corner.
In the dim emergency light, a security guard who had been in a hurry was hit in the face with the daggers.
He died with a serious expression still on his face.
One of the daggers pierced his nose, and the other went through his eye. He was killed instantly!
Luke braced the man’s body with his leg before letting it hit the floor.
He put his own gun back at his waist and searched the body. He found a pistol and a magazine.
It was a Glock 17, one of the guns that Luke was most familiar with!
Leaving the body behind, Luke moved on.
At a corner, Luke stopped and pressed up against the wall.
In the next moment, two security guards rushed past.
The first security guard hadn’t noticed him yet, and Luke kicked the second security guard in his groin at the turn. He felt something explode under his foot as the security guard was lifted twenty centimeters off the floor.
Pushing off of the floor, Luke hit the back of the first security guard who had run past.
There was the sound of bones breaking. The security guard froze, and he started bleeding from his eyes, nose and mouth a moment later.
Finally, Luke kicked the second security guard, who had collapsed after his first attack, in the back of the head.
Searching their bodies, Luke found a Beretta 92F and a P226. He put both of them in his pockets.
Since he was going on a killing spree here, he couldn’t use guns from the illegal brothel that would now be on file, or people might link the case here with the one in neuf trois.
