Jungkook and his team were later than usual because of some dealings that they had to finalize in the underworld.
There was just one last thing to do and that would be the buy-and-bust operation, which was to be carried out by the joint forces of the Special Ops of the Military and the Anti-Narcotics Police squad.
This operation was the finale of their mission, in which they would capture Old Man's Skull's group, together with Mr. Big, while they were entrapped in the middle of a huge drug deal. This drug bust would provide the law enforcers with a very clear evidence which would unquestionably get the criminals a life sentence or even a death penalty...
Ryu would be left out of this operation because of his civilian status. It would be enacted directly by Jungkook's team under his command. It was not an easy operation as they were aware of the interweaving web of corruption at the top of the government which was directly connected with the people from the underworld.
Jungkook looked at Ryu who was fidgeting anxiously as he was in a hurry to attend Arya's grand banquet that would be held that night.
He laughed seeing Ryu's edgy state as the latter kept looking at his wrist watch.
"Don't worry, you will reach there soon… at least before the event ends…" he remarked in jest that made the group laugh.
"Hmm, so our Hawk here could also be afraid, eh…? I mean, he had never shown fear all those times we had to face off against those notorious gangsters in the underworld for our mission. But now look at him, so nervous at the thought of his shining star wife getting disappointed if he missed her grand event…" said Snake, teasing him more.
Ryu massaged his nape and smiled with embarrassment because Snake had definitely hit the right spot. It was true that he was not afraid of anyone but Arya.
When Jungkook and his team was about to drop Ryu off at their safe house, Ryu's phone beeped.
"Fuck!" Jungkook heard Ryu curse as he quickly instructed Torin to follow Arya's tracking device. He started to make a call to everyone who could immediately go to Arya's rescue.
Ryu looked so uptight and overwrought inside their van. Jungkook instructed Dumbo to drive at the highest speed. It is imperative that they reach there in time...
He understood Ryu's feeling very well…
Nothing was scarier than losing the one you love without being able to do a thing to prevent it yourself.
After a few minutes, Jungkook received a call and it was from Mr. Big.
"He wanted to finish the deal now. We have to go back… Call the Military Base and inform them that we will bring Mr. Big down tonight," Jungkook instructed and looked at Ryu who understood the situation and called his men to pick him up halfway.
"But it's all too sudden… We're not prepared enough!" commented Torin.
Jungkook sighed as he explained, "Yeah I know but we don't have a choice… After tonight's incident, it would be hard to get another opportunity."
The underworld would indeed be greatly alarmed after tonight's incident. Their existence was broadcast widely and that was probably why Mr. Big wanted their deal to be done and closed as quickly as possible, much earlier than initially planned.
"Call everyone and get the men ready…" instructed Jungkook with a straight face and his team immediately followed his order.
They then dropped Ryu off at the roadside where his men were already there waiting for him.
