Chapter 28 Mission (3)

  Kim Jee-joon peered through the scope of his sniper rifle at the abandoned factory down on the slope, while I kept watch beside him. The whole factory and its surroundings were eerily quiet, with not a soul in sight on the nearly deserted highway nearby.

  After observing for a while, Kim Ji-joon put away his gun and said to me, "There's no one here, we can go in."

  I nodded and crouched down with him, slipping into the factory, and soon found the warehouse used for trading.

  Just like the photos in the data, the walls and ceiling that had been broken for a long time were full of large holes everywhere. In the spacious factory, some abandoned machines and wooden boxes were scattered all over the place, covered with dust. In the middle, there was also a considerable empty space, which was perfect for trading. After observing the surroundings, I and Kim Ji-hoon came to the middle of the empty space, took off the backpack on my shoulder, and pulled out everything inside.

  "Is this what you brought back?" Kim Ji-hoon curiously picked up the two plastic boxes I had placed on the floor.

  I reached out and opened both plastic boxes, inside which were two rows of paper boxes. I casually opened one box, took out a vial of medicine inside, and said: "This box contains high-strength anesthetics, don't underestimate them, it's said to be specially made, in the past it was poured into food wells on the battlefield, knocking down hundreds of enemies with this one vial. This can knock out a group of adult elephants within 10 seconds. Here is a large plastic box containing ten paper boxes, each containing five vials of medicine, if poured into the city's water supply pipes, half the people in the city will have a good sleep."

  "Whoa!" Kim Ji-joon widened his eyes and shook his head, saying: "You little brat are too vicious!"

  I chuckled and said, "This one is even more toxic! The other box contains a highly toxic substance made from the venom of a Brazilian snake. I took a look at the manual when I picked it up, damn, this stuff is too deadly! It's said that if just a tiny bit of this snake's venom gets into your bloodstream, you'll lose consciousness in one minute, and even God can't save you after half an hour! Unfortunately, snake venom is mostly composed of peptides, proteins, and enzymes, so fresh snake venom will spoil and become smelly after 24 hours at room temperature. Even if stored in the refrigerator, it can only be kept for 2-4 weeks. But after processing, dried snake venom can be preserved for decades. So, snake venom must be made into a dry product to be saved for a long time. However, this specially prepared toxin is different, the manual says it can remain active at room temperature for 4 hours, and it's deadly upon contact! I originally snuck into the biological research lab in the base thinking of only taking anesthetics, but there wasn't enough. Luckily, I found this box too. Hehe, so I just took it with me!"

  "It's not my fault, they're just unlucky!" I chuckled and seemed to be comforting myself, saying: "You say they're really something, what are they doing selling poison for no reason? And we're risking our lives to deal with them, right?"

  Kim Ji-joon shook his head in frustration: "This is a very profound topic, I don't plan to discuss it with you...... but what I don't understand is how this stuff ended up in the base?"

  "Not surprising at all! Think about it, the government is originally a dark shadow under the sunlight, using this thing to carry out an assassination would be much more convenient."

  I took out a few military uniforms and a roll of flame retardant fabric from my backpack and threw them to the ground, then dumped everything else in the backpack out. Several paper-wrapped boxes and rolls of tape fell to the ground, scattering several nails of various sizes. I ordered Kim Jee-joon to tear the military uniforms and flame retardant fabric into pieces, while I emptied the plastic boxes and poured the anesthetic and toxic agents into two separate plastic boxes.

  I swayed the two less-than-half-boxes, and a gloomy smile involuntarily appeared on my face: Hehe, you little ones, enough for you to drink a pot!

  Smirking, he tore open the packaging box of nails and poured out a pile of unevenly-sized nails onto the ground. He then grabbed a handful and placed them in two plastic boxes, casually picking up a small wooden stick to stir them around for a bit. Once all the nails were soaked in anesthetic and poison, he fished out another stick and scooped out the nails, spreading them evenly onto the tattered fabric that had been torn into pieces and laid on the ground. Next, he grabbed another large handful of nails and tossed them into the plastic box, continuing to stir while instructing Jin-woo, who was busily ripping apart military uniforms.

  "Hey, where's the bomb you're supposed to have?"

  "Ah? Oh, here it is." Kim Ji-hoon threw away the broken military uniform in his hand and pulled over a backpack next to him, taking out the bombs one by one that were inside: "As you said, they're all small-scale micro remote-controlled bombs, I packed an entire bag of them!"

  "Alright, you activate all the bombs first and wrap them in fireproof cotton, then put them on the cloth, and bundle them together with nails. Make sure to wrap them evenly, and finally tie them up tightly with tape! You'd better be careful not to prick your hand, this thing is deadly if it gets stuck on you even a little bit! In this desolate wilderness, once it sticks to you, just wait for death!"

  "No problem." Kim Ji-joon nodded, carefully activating the bombs one by one, wrapping each one up according to my requirements, and securing them with tape. He even intentionally tied a knot in it, making it easy to carry by hand.

  After more than half an hour of busy work, a pile of freshly baked special nail bombs was piled up in front of us! Each round package was wrapped in torn military uniform fabric, and the flame-retardant cotton inside was tightly packed to maximize protection for the nails on the outside. Under the heat generated by the explosion of the bomb, it is not enough to burn the toxic liquid on the nails!

  Looking at this big pile, I have a sense of accomplishment.

  My goal is to hide all these bombs around the factory beforehand, although there are many of them, but they are all very small, each with only the power of two firecrackers used during Chinese New Year. Moreover, they are scattered all over the place, even if all the bombs were to explode at the same time, in such an empty factory, it would absolutely not destroy this place and the money we need. The real killer is the nails wrapped around the bombs with toxic liquid, the exploding bombs can't destroy the toxic liquid on top, but will scatter these nails everywhere, and those who get infected with these terrifying **, how can they resist?

  "Alright, the medicine is all used up!" I patted my hands together and wrapped the remaining nails and a few grenades in one bundle, tossing them to the ground: "Now we must hurry to set up these grenades, they must be hidden well and can't be discovered. Also, remember to take care of footprints and other marks, try to keep things as they were."

  Kim Joon nodded and said it was okay, then he and I started setting up these nail bombs everywhere. We buried them in piles of dirt, placed them among the weeds, stuffed them into broken pipes of machines, hid them in trash heaps, and if there was nowhere to hide them, we'd move a rotten wooden box, tear off a piece of rusty iron sheeting, and throw two or three bombs on top.

  It's already been more than an hour since I finished all the work.

  Finally, Kim Ji-hoon and I kindly moved a large wooden box to the center of the empty space. Cash transaction, you have to count the money and all that! We put the last big one inside, and then disguised all the places we had been to as their original appearance!

  Satisfied with looking around, there is no sign that more than a dozen bombs have been set up here, and they are all seasoned!

  "Hide!" I shouted, searching for the most suitable ambush location. The abnormal military training allowed us to quickly find the most suitable hiding spot. As an assault hand, I chose a hiding spot about ten meters outside the warehouse, in a pile of weeds. I dug a small pit on the ground, sprinkled chemical drying agent and hid myself inside, covering myself with the grass skin that had been reserved beforehand. If you don't look carefully, no one will find that there is a fully armed soldier hidden in this clump of weeds. After thinking about it again, I moved two large stones to pile them up in front of me, and then lay down in the small pit, hiding behind the stone crevice to observe the surrounding situation.

  Who knows if there will be nails flying up to ten or more meters and piercing my body? Moving stones to hit your own feet, by then you'll probably regret it but it's too late!

  Kim Jee-joon climbed up a large chimney on the opposite side of the factory building after changing places several times, and through the broken walls and roof of the factory, he could clearly see the situation inside. I used the optical sight on my rifle to take a closer look at the top of the chimney overgrown with weeds, but didn't find him there. This group of drug dealers encountered Kim Jee-joon, a shooting genius, and they probably won't even know how they die.

  We hid in a hiding place and reported back to headquarters, then quietly lay there waiting.

  Because we don't know what situation will occur, the drug traffickers may send someone to scout out the place first. We'll remain hidden in our respective positions until the moment of the transaction and then launch a surprise attack.

  What we didn't know was that in the command center of a US military base and on a small island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean, satellite images of the abandoned factory were displayed on the large screen. From the big and small holes on the roof of the workshop, after two people set up everything and found a suitable hiding place, the abandoned factory looked no different at all, and the personnel present couldn't help but show admiration on their faces.
