Dominic didn’t waste any time on small talk. “Let’s go.” The two in-laws immediately got into the backseat of the Toyota, which turned around and rushed toward Rio.
After the black Mustang crossed the bridge and entered Niteroi, Luke pulled over on a quiet road and dragged the man in gray out of the trunk.
Taking off the man’s hood and mask, Luke sighed after seeing the man’s face. “Yeah, you really are too hideous to look at.”
That being said, he didn’t cover the man’s face again.
The man grunted angrily, but couldn’t utter a word with the towel stuffed in his mouth.
His face was extremely ugly. His skin was gray and black, like a lizard’s, and had bumps on it, which didn’t make him look human.
Luke couldn’t care less about his fury. He took out a knife and slashed the man’s shoulder a few times.
Looking at the blunt tip of the knife and the white marks on the man’s shoulder, Luke nodded. “You really have great defensive abilities. Not just getting hit by a car, even sharp weapons can barely pierce you. You do have great physical protection.” As Luke studied the edge of the knife, a trace of excitement appeared in the eyes of the man in gray. A tiny gray thorn pushed out of the man’s forehead and grew to five centimeters in less than three seconds.
“Wu! Wu! Wu!” The man in gray gave a muffled roar.
The gray thorn shot out at Luke’s head in a gray streak.
“Hehe.” Chuckling, Luke raised his right hand unhurriedly and caught the thorn with two fingers in front of his forehead.
The man in gray was stunned.
Luke turned the object over between his fingers and observed it with great interest.
Against his black gloves, the gray thorn glinted with a faint metallic sheen.
“So, this is why you’re called Hedgehog,” Luke murmured, before he flicked his wrist.
Swoosh!
There was still shock in the man’s left eye, before the light in it gradually dimmed, while his right eye had turned into a hole.
Luke had returned the gray thorn to its rightful owner – deep in the man’s head.
Looking at the system notification, Luke snorted and drove away.
At the same time, Dominic and Brian met up with everybody else and returned to the abandoned factory. Everybody gathered at the factory.
After examining her brother and her husband, Mia smiled. “Thank god. None of the injuries are serious.” After a long silence, everybody finally sighed with relief.
If something happened to Dominic and Brian, their leaders, it would have been too high a price to pay for this operation even though it had succeeded.
Thankfully, while their lives had been in danger many times, they had managed to return safe and sound.
Dominic grinned happily as he watched his sister hug his brother-in-law. He shouted, “Okay, let’s unload the loot first.”
On the side was a huge freight truck with an extended container.
Hearing Dominic’s words, Roman, the tall black guy, dashed into the truck. “Let me do
it.”
The container opened up and slanted downward. Then, an armored truck slowly reversed out of the container to land on the ground.
In the back of the truck was an enormous safe. Vanessa had used the same ploy in New York. It was still useful this time. Brian, who had been driving the real armored truck carrying the safe they stole from the police station, had entered the freight truck that was on the roadside just before crossing the sea bridge. Vanessa had been behind the wheel of the freight truck.
A fake armored truck had already been waiting in front of the freight truck, and Dominic drove it out onto the bridge.
By the time the police cars approached the bridge, the back of the freight truck was shut and it was driving along at a sedate speed. At that time, the police cars, who had lost sight of the armored pickup earlier, didn’t notice the switcheroo at all.
The reason magic tricks never got old was because the same principles of deception could be implemented in different ways.
They took advantage of most people’s preconceptions.
That was why Dominic, who clearly could have escaped, took the risk in turning around and charging straight toward the police cars and Hernan’s car.
Apart from getting revenge on Hernan, it was also because the armored truck which fell into the sea had only been carrying a fake safe which didn’t contain any money at all.
It had just been a prop to distract everybody.
After this incident, the attention of the police and whoever else was interested in the two hundred million dollars would be completely focused on the armored truck that had fallen into the sea.
As to how these people were going to fish out the empty safe that was dozens of meters down at the bottom, that had nothing to do with Dominic.
“Taji, you’re up.” Dominic patted the shoulder of a short black man nearby.
Taji nodded and picked up a bunch of tools.
Connecting his laptop to the safe via a data cable, he was busy for a while before he took out a translucent film sheet with Hernan’s palm print on it. He took a deep breath and said, “Come on, baby, don’t give me a hard time.”
If they had Hernan’s hands, it would be very easy to pass the palm print test.
This palm print had been copied onto the film, and there was a chance that the test might fail.
Watching Taji place the film over the recognition screen and press his hand on it, everybody held their breaths.
Blue light scanned the film on the screen.
Deng!
With a sound, the red indicator on one side of the screen turned green.
Everybody got goosebumps and shuddered a little.
Taji sighed explosively. He looked back at everybody and lifted his hand to turn the wheel on the door of the safe. With a light click, it slowly opened.
The moment the door opened, piles of cash poured out in a tide.
The weight in everybody’s hearts was lifted. It was like something exploding abruptly with a bang as everybody was filled with indescribable joy.Unless you experienced it for yourself, it was hard to imagine what the thrill of seeing several cubic meters of cash in front of you was like, especially when the money belonged to you.
Roman, the tall black man, clenched his fists and yelled in excitement. Taji wiped his cold sweat. The two Latino brothers bumped their fists in celebration.
Han and Vanessa were each standing in a corner with big smiles as well.
Brian and Mia were also hugging and kissing passionately.
Despite his usual calm, Dominic’s lips were also twitching as he tried to hold back his urge to laugh.
Lastly, there was also Vincent, who was wiping his tears and sweat as he yelled to himself, I finally have money to feed my children and my wife!
A moment later, the abandoned factory was filled with cheers and laughter.
The atmosphere on Luke’s end, however, wasn’t nearly as jolly.
