THE CHAPTER 8 HAD A BIG UPDATE!!!
──────────────────
We drove to the Nationals security base. They had interrogation rooms and way more tech for this case. Soap got hit and we yet don't know where he got taken. We got accompanied by the armed forces, they lead us through the building to the rest of our people.
Price approached, his face serious but satisfied. "Good work, team. Let's see what we can learn from these scumbags. Each take a room, you will be accompanied by the ministry of defense agents, they have been also working on this."
I walked around a little looking trough the one sided mirrors till I saw a familiar face. Rafael Martinez, known as El Cazador (The Hunter), a high ranking member. I stood in a small room with my arms crossed on my chest, looking at him trough the mirror, memories flooding back. My thoughts were interruped by an agent who approached me.
"Seems like you already picked yours" she said. I turned to look at her, she's so stunning, I couldn't help but stare.
"Helloooo" she smiled at me.
"Ahh yes yes hi" I replied, streching my arm out for a shake. "Y/n Sova y/l, call me y/n"
She chuckled and shook my hand, "Well nice to meet you y/n, I'm agent Bennett, call me Lily"
"Nice to meet you too", she was so gorgeous I couldn't stop eating her up with my eyes. Her dark brown hair tied in a sleek mid height ponytail, her smile is so charming. Small frame and such innocent looking. The formal black buttonup shirt hugging her form all the right ways.
"You recognize him?" she said softly, her voice is angelic.
"Uhh yeah. Rafael Martinez, known as El Cazador was a high ranking member, a hitman for the Black Scorpions."
"Was?" she asked.
"Mhm, we found him riding the shipment, upper rank are not involved with low rank runner task. Did I asnwer?
"Haha yes, continue, please" she replied.
"Alright, so. His father was a low level smuggler, got killed in a police raid when Rafael was ten. At fifteen, Rafael was recruited by the Black Scorpions and quickly rised through the ranks due to his ruthless efficiency. He earned his nickname 'El Cazador' for his methodical approach to hunting down enemies and targets. He was suspected of negotiations with corrupt officials and other criminal organizations. He was one of the most feared and respected members of the cartel. I don't know what happened to him now"
"Well, let's go have a chat with him then." she remarked and left the room. I followed, we walked around the corner and entered the room. His head lift up and his eyes instantly landed on me.
"Natalie Brooks" he said in his low snake-like tone. Lily shot me a glance full of confusion. I just looked back and we sat down in the chairs infront of him. She put her papers down and tried to concentrate and begin the interrogation but he continued. "How's your son doing? Still going to football practices?" he smirked as he said.
"Haven't heard about you in a while, how did you drop ranks this fast?" I answered sarcastically. Then turned to Lily "I used to work undecover under the name of Natalie Brooks. He was my target, I had a made up son and picking him up from football practices would be my excuse to leave", she noded in understanding, making sense of it all. We then proceeded with the interrogation.
──────────────────
"Thanks for the help, I would've digged myself a grave if I had to go alone in there." I remarked as me and Lily left the interrogation room.
"The pleasure's mine, couldn't have done this without you" she said, we stopped and she hummed for a second and then said "Hey, whathu doing after this?"
"Probably find Price and wait for his instructions, why?"
"You got anywhere to stay for the time? Sorry, this is cause they told me this might take a couple of days till they send 141 home and I was kinda wondering" she talked so fast and was so nervours I couldn't help but crack a smile.
"Nope, matter of fact I have literally nothing and my guns and gear is also somewhere" I replied and we both chuckled.
"Wellll, I get off in about 30 minutes anddd im hungry and I knowww that you're hungry and how about I keep you overnight" she said bitting her lip and looking up at me. God what is this woman doing to me.
"Hmm hmm hmm" I put on a little act, "You know, I'm also kinda wanting a drink"
"There's a great bar near here, I also have a fancy bottle of whiskey back home. Which one it'll be?" she replied.
"Your place" I replied.
She joyfully smilled and with eagerness said, "Ok so, you go find your Lieutenant and I'll meet you in the parking lot in 30"
"Copy that" I replied and she rushed to clock out. But now I have to find Price or anybody of my team in this terribly enormous building, and where the fuck is Soap. And with that I began my search.
I keep glancing at the clock, 8 minutes have passed and I finally found Price. "Hey" I said while approaching. And before I could say anything he rushed to say what he had to. "Gaz is stuck with agents, Ghost went to hunt down Soap. If you're done for today fetch yourself a place and keep your phone close by. We'll talk about everything tommorow or I may call you today late at night. Our gear is taken for the case files evidence something and won't be given back till tommorow minimum." He said, handed me my phone and dissapeared into the crowded corridor.
With no rush I made my way outside to the parking lot. Fetched myself a cigarette and waited for Lily to clock out. We rode out for the mission around 9 pm, now it's 4 in the morning. The exhaustion has been washed away by the adrenaline and sleep was nowhere to be found.
She finally walked out and looked around searching for me. She jumped when she saw me creepily leaning on the wall.
"You scared me" she said while chuckling "Did you find Price and your stuff?"
"Yeah, he gave me my phone back. The rest of my gear is in the evidence thing till tommorow."
"Bummer. Shall we go?" She replied. I nodded in agreement and followed her to her car. The ride there was quite silent, I kept looking out the window. We stopped and got take out. We were both starving so we ate in the car. I fed her while she was driving and we laughed how she would shove the last bite as quickly as she can at the red light.
She parked and we made our way to this very tall building in the centre of the town. We got into the lift and she pressed the button for the 16th floor.
"Fancy," I said.
"Wait till you see my apartment". As she unlocked her door.
My jaw nealy dropped, full glass wall, offering a beautiful sight into the city, the sunrises and sunsets should be wonderful here. The kitchen was on a step and connected with the living room.
"You need clothes" she said to herself and went to look trough her closet. She came back with a towel, sweats and a tshirt. Pointed me towards the bathroom and instructed me to shove my uniform into her laundry machine.
