Chapter 50: Chapter 50 Starting the Battle
Mountain Eagle and Tessa had dinner near the Dan Nen Sha Duo Water Market before Tessa took him to an unknown small temple...
Mountain Eagle was pulled by Tessa to kneel in front of a Buddha statue. After kneeling, Mountain Eagle, thinking since he was already here, pulled out some cash to look for the Merit Box, only to find out that this small temple surprisingly did not accept money.
That’s unreasonable!
Stubbornly, Mountain Eagle stuffed the cash into the hands of a novice monk whose eyebrows were shaved off, forcefully getting a blessing in return...
Seeing Mountain Eagle’s satisfied expression, Tessa with a peculiar expression pulled him towards the temple’s Water Tower, climbed to the top with the help of a stairway, and started to surveil the nearby roads and the situation at Adakuan Manor a few kilometers away.
Mountain Eagle sitting on top of the Water Tower, looked at Tessa beside him who couldn’t stop laughing and clutching her stomach, he asked baffledly, "Are you out of your mind?"
Tessa looked at Mountain Eagle and sat up while rubbing her stomach, said: "Do you know what he just said?"
Mountain Eagle spread his hands and said, "How would I know? But since he took my money, he must say a few nice words to bless our operation today..."
Hearing this, Tessa covered her face and laughed, saying: "He said, um, he said you are a foolish outsider, haha..."
Hearing this, Mountain Eagle shook his head and laughed, "Took my money and can’t even say something nice, the monks here don’t understand manners and lack business sense."
Tessa said while laughing: "It’s you who doesn’t understand manners. If that was a real monk just now, we would have been kicked out already.
How come I never noticed you were such a jerk before?
Are you even Thai?"
Mountain Eagle was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed: "Of course, I am Thai, just haven’t lived here much.
It’s just that I’ve been hurt by some greedy temples before, so I have a bit of an overreaction."
Speaking of which, Mountain Eagle remembered the situations he had seen recently in Thailand...
Last week he saw a family sending off a young man to become a monk, and the next week the same family celebrating the young man’s return to lay-life, at the time he thought the Thai temples were not serious...
However, it’s true that Thai monks don’t ask for money when they go out for alms. People they pass by offer them love donations, basically some food and small daily necessities, in exchange for blessings.
The items don’t need to be expensive, and it’s not that strict; whatever you eat, you give to the monks, package it in a plastic bag for them, and you’ll receive a few words of blessing and thanks.
There’s also something called making merit for oneself, similar to the Catholic confession; if you feel uneasy, just grab a passing monk, kneel down, reveal your inner sins, and let the monk comfort you with a few words.
Thai monks are very cordial: you provide me food, I listen to your complaints, and finally, I bless you and counsel you.
While it may look weird, it’s genuinely quite nice.
Mountain Eagle wasn’t upset about the novice monk cursing him; he cheerfully handled the binoculars, keeping an eye on the road conditions around while adjusting the atmosphere to keep Tessa’s emotions from getting too high...
Mountain Eagle can take risks himself, but this young lady certainly can’t be in trouble!
He must soothe her well, so during the operation, she stays at the back and supports properly.
Mountain Eagle is a Lone Wolf; he’s more used to being on his own!
The two waited on top of the Water Tower until midnight, then things moved towards the direction that Mountain Eagle anticipated.
First, several motorcycles appeared, followed by several pickups, then scattered suspicious individuals started appearing on the nearby village roads...
These people didn’t know each other, and when they faced each other, the atmosphere started to become a bit restless.
As time ticked away, just when Mountain Eagle wondered why those people hadn’t taken any action, the lights of Adakuan’s manor a few kilometers away were turned on.
Mountain Eagle, who had been frustrated with not being able to see the manor’s conditions, immediately raised his binoculars...
Adakuan’s manor was located near a village in Ratchaburi...
The people living in the village are relatively concentrated, a row of white two-story buildings indicates that their standard of living is pretty good.
After exiting the highway and passing through the village via the clean road, following the river road leads directly to the base of a small mountain, where Adakuan’s manor is located.
In the past, apart from visiting some royal gardens, Mountain Eagle had never really seen a real manor.
Now, having seen the real thing, Mountain Eagle suddenly realized that landowners in Thailand really have it good!
With mountains behind and water in front, it’s like spring all year round!
Calling it a manor, in fact, there is only one huge main house and two smaller buildings probably for servants, the rest of the area has been transformed into gardens.
Mountain Eagle doesn’t know much about architectural design, but Adakuan’s garden is definitely much larger than any he had seen in Suzhou.
The garden of the manor does not have winding paths, but rather neat clusters of flowers that were clearly tended to by gardeners for a long time.
The garden looks great when lit up, but the presence of numerous armed security personnel around the manor makes the atmosphere very tense.
Mountain Eagle carefully reviewed the security situation within his line of sight through the telescope, first realizing that Basong using his daughter as a condition for surrender was effective...
The presence of armed security in the manor demonstrated that Adakuan, who received the news, was very nervous.
Once a person has something to fear, they tend to act more cautiously and leave room for maneuver.
The bright lights of the manor indicate that something was definitely noticed inside...
Scanning with his moving telescope at those suspicious individuals who weren’t moving, Mountain Eagle realized it was time to act; without someone lighting a fire, those low-level gang gunmen might not dare to charge at a Congressman’s manor under such complex circumstances...
Mountain Eagle patted Tessa’s shoulder and said, "Stay here and keep watch until I notify you..."
Tessa dissatisfiedly said, "You want to leave me here alone..."
Mountain Eagle pointed to a sedan parked outside the temple, smiling as he said, "How could you possibly be alone?
You stay here to provide me with support. Once I find Basong’s daughter, you’ll have to find a way to cover me.
This is the best plan; the Special Forces 191 should be almost in place, but since I’m not familiar with them, how could I be at ease without you coordinating from the rear?"
Saying this, Mountain Eagle shook Tessa’s shoulder holding her seriously, "Listen to me, once the manor battles begin, go and join the people protecting you.
If possible, it’s best to head to the Special Forces 191 command vehicle and seek some authority; you can play a bigger role there..."
After finishing, Mountain Eagle didn’t give Tessa a chance to refuse, and directly slid down the ladder of the water tower, heading to the temple entrance to retrieve his gear from a police car...
Hiking boots, cowboy jeans, white T-shirt, bullet-proof vest, CZ75 Phantom handgun, Benelli M2 shotgun...
Mountain Eagle inserted four handgun magazines respectively into the tactical belt and bulletproof vest mag pouches, adjusted his quick-draw holsters, and attached a shotgun shells-filled ammo pack, with a quick-access shell holder for the M2 on the right side of his bullet-proof vest...
Not armed to the teeth, but in Mountain Eagle’s view, it should be enough to handle the Thais gangs and ordinary security.
After getting ready, Mountain Eagle put on a backpack, started a temporarily purchased off-road motorcycle, and slowly rode towards a black Honda sedan nearby, knocking on the window on the driver’s side...
After the window rolled down, Mountain Eagle nodded to a scarred, fully-armed, mature man in the driver’s seat, then bent down to greet two similarly fully-armed acquaintances, Suka and Jelate, in the back seat with a smile...
"Tessa received a tip-off that someone wants to attack Councilman Adakuan’s manor, I’m going to check the situation, Tessa will soon come over to join you..."
Saying this, Mountain Eagle slapped his head, looked at the scar-faced man and said, "Do you have shock bombs and smoke bombs? Lend me a few..."
The scar-faced man carefully examined Mountain Eagle’s equipment and hesitated for a moment before making a gesture to Suka in the back seat...
"Our mission is to eliminate all the gang gunmen, be careful!
The stuff you want is in the trunk, take it and use it..."
