Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Encirclement and Pursuit

Lu Ah had been hiding in the slums for several days, and although many people were searching for him outside, he had bought plenty of food to stay indoors, so nobody could find him immediately.

His hideout was a rental property, where the landlord only cared about collecting money and never bothered about who rented the house; he didn’t know that Lu Ah was the "walking vault" everyone outside was looking for.

Hamlin had dispatched over three hundred people to search, nearly turning the entire slum upside down, but still didn’t find any trace of Lu Ah, which made him furious, "What’s wrong with you people? Can’t you even find one person and still dare to call yourselves the strongest mercenaries in Tai Country?"

A woman with a left-side fringe spread her hands helplessly, "Mr. Hamlin, I do have a way to find Lu Ah immediately, but it’s a bit too conspicuous and might attract government attention..."

"Stop the nonsense and speak!" Hamlin huffed, "Whether it works or not, I decide!"

"Alright, Mr. Hamlin." The woman said, "Notify everyone in the slums to leave, give them some money, and they will surely cooperate. Once they are cleared out, our people can bring in hunting dogs and it will then be much easier to find him."

"That’s a minor issue." Hamlin said, "Do as you said!"

The woman chuckled, "The money spent to make those poor people leave..."

"Is one million US Dollars enough?" Hamlin’s eyes were bloodshot, "If that’s enough, then get moving now!"

"Okay, Mr. Hamlin." The woman snapped her fingers and left with an air of triumph.

An hour later.

"What? They want us to evacuate the slum?" Wang Han realized as soon as he heard the news that this was Hamlin’s people using their ultimate move, "Once everyone leaves, they’ll find Lu Ah quickly! What should we do?"

A petite woman wearing strong prescription glasses said, "Boss, don’t worry, I’ll have drones keep an eye on them. As soon as they find Mr. Lu Ah, I can control the drones to attack them and help Mr. Lu Ah escape."

This woman was Tina, a member recruited by Wang Han at a high cost in Tai Country, a computer expert proficient in controlling drone warfare.

Now that it was the era of high technology, having a few experts well-versed in modernized combat within the team was essential.

"We’ll just have to do that for now." Wang Han waved his hand decisively, "Move out, we’re withdrawing too."

Hearing they could earn a hundred US Dollars for one day’s evacuation, everyone in the slums ran faster than anyone else.

The big boss was distributing money on the spot; anyone who didn’t run was a fool.

In less than half an hour, the entire slum had turned into a deserted mini-city.

Aside from various animals, hardly any human noises could be heard.

"Enter the village." The fringe-wearing woman waved her hand, and over three hundred people immediately rushed into the slum with hunting dogs to search for the man.

Wang Han and his thirty or so people hid in a nearby house, monitoring every corner of the slum.

Over the past few days, Tina had installed cameras at every street corner of the slum, with their locations being extremely well-concealed, practically unnoticed by anyone.

These cameras used a local wireless network, with the main server located in this house.

Purchasing this equipment had cost them several hundred thousand, and initially, Wang Han had felt quite distressed about it, but now he found it to be incredibly worthwhile.

The actions of those three hundred plus people were completely visible, and they could even see when someone was picking their nose.

Even so, Wang Han still felt uneasy inside: "When exactly will Mr. Yang’s people arrive?"

They had only thirty people, whereas the opposition had over three hundred, who could call for reinforcements at any time.

If it came to a confrontation, they had no chance of winning.

Yang Yu’s backup had better arrive soon; otherwise, once Lu Ah was discovered and the battle commenced... Wang Han didn’t know what to do anymore.

"Woof, woof, woof!" Several hounds began barking at once, and a twenty-person search squad immediately prepared to rush into the dilapidated house in front of them.

Wang Han knew if he didn’t act now, it would be too late. He immediately gave the order, "Tina, start bombing!"

"What was that?" The search squad heard an unusual noise, looked up, and a bomb fell from the sky.

Boom!

The ground burst open instantly, screams were immediately drowned out by the explosion, and limbs and body parts were scattered everywhere!

"There’s noise over there!"

"Hurry up!"

The search team immediately moved towards the site of the explosion. In command outside, Ms. Liu frowned, "Lu Ah is just a boxer; what’s with the explosion? Could it be... he has backup!"

Ms. Liu immediately informed her subordinates, "Lu Ah might have backup, everyone be careful!"

Boom, boom, boom...

Several more explosions occurred within the slums, causing Ms. Liu to lose dozens of people, infuriating her so much that she glared fiercely, "Which mercenaries dare wreak havoc on my Takala turf!"

"Big sister, it’s a drone!" A dying subordinate provided crucial information, and Takala immediately raised an eyebrow, "A drone? Heh, they must be hiding nearby, right?"

Takala took out her phone and made a call, "Dior, immediately find a strong wireless network signal within a few hundred meters from my location."

"Okay, big sister." The sound of computer keyboards being rapidly typed filled the phone, and Takala didn’t hang up, waiting for a reply.

About a minute later, Dior replied, "Big sister, it’s two hundred meters west of you, a very strong wireless network signal."

"Okay, received." Takala casually picked up a rocket launcher and quietly approached Wang Han and his team’s location.

A subordinate stood on the rooftop keeping watch until Takala was only fifty meters away when he finally noticed and yelled in fear, "Boss, retreat quickly, they’ve found us! That woman has a rocket launcher..."

Boom!

Takala fired a rocket at the second-floor window, and the whole house immediately exploded into flames!

"Cough, cough..." The smoke choked everyone, who were all in disarray.

Fortunately, the subordinate cautioned in time, and everyone immediately dove for cover or hid nearby. A few were injured, but luckily, no one died.

"Retreat!" With no other choice, Wang Han ordered a retreat.

Over three hundred people were searching in the slums, and Takala still had more than a hundred people by her side. They couldn’t fight that!

Takala was about to fire another round when suddenly, a dangerous feeling made her shiver, and she rolled on the spot in fear.

Bang!

A sniper bullet hit where she had been standing just moments before; had she not dodged, the bullet would have penetrated her head!

Takala looked around; there was nowhere nearby that a sniper could hide. Where was the sniper?

Needless to say, the bullet must have been shot from a kilometer away, because that’s where a sniper could have been hidden!
