It wasn't yet dawn when Leo and Sha Qing left the wilderness and approached the hilltop clubhouse. They lurked in the grass to observe for a while and found that the guards around the clubhouse walls were indeed much slacker, with only one mobile post almost every twenty minutes, and the number of people had been reduced. Yavre could not find them in the North Island, so he assumed that they have escaped to the South Island. He instructed his men to use a patrol boat to block the strait between the two islands, a set up likened to that to catching fish in a jar.
The clubhouse wall was nearly four meters high, but this could not hinder the well-trained agent and killer. Leo stood at the base of the wall, his arms padded together then Sha Qing leaped upon his palm, stomping on the wall with his toes and leaping up the wall in the blink of an eye. He took off his clothes and wrapped them around his arms, rolled a channel through the barbed wire fence, and held out his hand toward Leo below: "Come."
The two scaled the fence and landed on the garden lawn dotted with Fir trees.
"I'm going to go to the villa where I lived before." Leo whispered, "I have something hidden there."
"Is it Mr. Bond's secret weapon?" Sha Qing chuckled, "Then let's go to the villa area first so we can determine whether the remaining members are there."
Leo glared at him and made a gesture of "I'll keep an eye on you".
They approached the villa area lightly, bypassing the sparse guards along the way, and entered the villa where Leo had lived before.
"- Wait!" As they walked into the master bedroom, Sha Qing suddenly pulled Leo's arm and warned in a very faint voice, "There's someone in the room."
There was no light in the villa, and it was dark and silent, but after Leo listened intently, he really heard some subtle movement- it was a sleeping person's snuff, and it seemed to come from the depths of the big bed.
Sha Qing silently walked over towards the bed, then strangled the stranger's throat, his other hand covering the latter's mouth and nose.
The sudden sneak attack stunned him for a short second or two, but he reacted with uncanny speed, grabbing the hand on his throat with a death grip, while pulling out a sharp dagger from under the pillow and stabbed it towards the person who was choking him.
Sha Qing had to let go of the hand covering the figure's mouth and nose to clutch the wrist holding the murder weapon. He twisted their hands, and the tip of the blade changed direction, now pressing into his opponent's chest.
In the tug of war between the two arms, the blade moved inch by inch toward the chest of the man on the bed, and just as it was about to pierce the flesh, Leo rushed forward and grabbed their wrists separately and pulled them apart. In a standard police takedown move, he pinned the man on the bed face down in three or two strokes, twisted his arms behind his waist, and bellowed to Sha Qing: "Go get a tie!"
Sha Qing grunted and got up to go to the closet to pick up a tie.
The man who was pinned to the sheet and could barely breathe screamed at the sound: "...... Let go! It's me, it's me!"
Sha Qing was stunned: "--Daniel?"
Leo let go, and the blonde-haired, green-eyed man jumped up from the bed, his angry eyes full of vicious malice, hidden by the shadowy light.
He really is alive! That idiot, punk, sissy! Daniel cursed Yavre angrily in his heart, but his face was only filled with astonishment as he asked, "Sha Qing, Leo, what are you doing here?"
