The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective
Chapter 148 - Captured
"Are you sure I am the one you are looking for? This must be a mistaken identity. I am not rich. I am only a cashier at a Cafe."
"Haha, you have so many questions. If you want to live just follow me quietly."
"Oh, by the way, I have not mistaken your identity. I am a hundred percent sure that you are the right target." the man assured her.
After hearing his response, Elle thought that it would be a waste of time to continue talking to this man.
Actually, she was waiting for his accomplices to come but she already felt bored. She did not want to drag this for long.
So Elle decided to move. When she already conditioned her mind and was about to attack the guy, they heard someone else's voice from behind.
"Hey Elle, what are you doing here?" the newcomer said with his delighted voice.
The moment she saw the person Elle's head seemed to swell like she was having a headache.
'What the hell is he doing here at a time like this? A wrong timing man... a bad timing.' She was cursing the man in front of her.
Instead of her assailant, Elle had the urge to punch this person and knock some senses at him.
'James Arison you are really one of the causes of my headache. You never fail to get on my nerves.' she was now gritting her teeth.
The man with a gun immediately moved at Elle's back and grabbed her while pointing a gun at her head.
"Don't move or else I will kill this woman." He threatened James. Elle could feel that her assailant was a little bit nervous right now.
She could easily disarm him since he was really close to her but she rejected that thought since James was in front of them.
The smile of James's face immediately disappeared as soon as he saw the scene.
He was too late to notice that the man who was facing Elle a while ago was holding a gun.
He did not see the gun since the man's back was facing him and besides, he was very focused on Elle.
He thought they were just having a casual conversation and he decided to interrupt them by greeting Elle.
James was on his way to Falcon's Cafe when he noticed Elle's familiar figure, walking on the street.
He decided to follow her. When she turned in a corner, he parked his car, before he continued to follow her.
He did not expect to witness this kind of scene.
'F*ck, I should have brought my gun with me.' He thought to himself.
"Wait. I am not planning to do anything here. Do you want money? I can give you that. Just don't hurt her." James was trying to negotiate with the man.
"Name your price. I can give you a million so that you can release her," he added.
Elle just rolled her eyes. It seemed like her plan was ruined because of this guy. So she decided to keep quiet and let him do the talk.
She was also confident that her assailant won't shoot. She confirmed that this man was an amateur. She could feel that he was trembling and very tense right now.
The man just laughed at his offer. A light flashed his eyes when he saw the two figures approaching them.
"I think you are really rich and can afford to spend any amount for ransom. So it is better to invite you as well to tag along with us."
The man gave him a meaningful look as he surveyed James. He was wearing his black suit so the man knew that he was not an ordinary guy base on his business-like clothing.
"After I deal with this beautiful lady, then we can talk about your offer," he added as he smirked at him.
James frowned with his reply. He hated the tone of this man.
'What is he planning to do with Elle?' he was now fuming in rage.
"Don't you ever think of hurting her or even touch a single strand of her hair," James said with his stern authoritative voice. He shot him a cold sharp glare.
"Haha... you don't have a say with this. You are not the man in control here but I am." The man said to him mockingly.
Seconds later, James felt that someone grabbed him from behind. He turned only to see that there was also a gun aiming at him.
One guy was restraining him from moving while the other guy was pointing the gun at him.
In the end, both James and Elle were held captive by those three men. They tied their hands, covered their eyes using blindfolds and brought them inside the white van.
"Hey, are you alright?" James asked Elle softly. They were sitting in the middle while the two men were sitting in the next seats on their back.
'I was doing fine before you arrived.' Elle wanted to rant at him but she controlled herself.
Elle just stayed silent and ignored him.
"Hey, why are you ignoring me, are you upset? Are you not happy that I accompany you here? I am trying to save you here." James frowned at her when he was ignored by her.
'I don't need to be saved!! I can handle them myself if you did not come!!' She was in the blink of breaking her patience because of the man seated beside her.
"Saving my a*s you fool!? If you are trying to save me, why are you being tied here with me?" she spat back at him.
"Are you blind and deaf? Did you not see his gun and heard our conversation? Why are you suddenly appearing out of nowhere?" she could not help herself but rant on him.
"En... I just got excited when I saw you there." He said, feeling so guilty.
"Shhhh... can both of you be quiet or else we will have to tape your mouths." the chubby man warned them.
Elle and James just stayed silent and no one spoke again. Being tied and blindfolded were enough for them, they did not want those guys to seal their mouths.
The silence helped Elle to come up with her new plan.
'I wonder where they are bringing us. Should I ask Master Phantom and Charles for help since I can not fight them while James is here with me?'
"Haha, you have so many questions. If you want to live just follow me quietly."
"Oh, by the way, I have not mistaken your identity. I am a hundred percent sure that you are the right target." the man assured her.
