ORGÁNOSI I: Broken Mask

ANTECEDENT: CHAPTER 29

ANTECEDENT: CHAPTER 29

MIDNIGHT FELT like his leadership skill had gone to the next level because of his new "amazing" team in London. He even felt like his team was deliberately assembled to be this "amazing" to test him. He didn't believe that the Orgánosi had so many idiot members, but every mission was like proving his conjecture wrong.

"Boss, are we still pushing our Wales schedule?" Love asked Midnight while Midnight was doing paper works that would be sent to Parisi for approval. "Based on the schedule sent by Parisi's tracker, you are free tomorrow until ten PM. There would be a raid, so we had to go back around three PM to prepare."

"How long is the travel time from here to Wales?" Midnight asked, while still focused on the documents in front of him.

"Around three hours."

"Do we know Lockridge's location?"

"I have his flat address."

"Alright. Let's go early tomorrow."

Midnight waited for Love's response when he heard nothing but silent. He moved his gaze away from the document he was holding and turn his head to Love.

The guy was sleeping.

Midnight frowned but understood that this was Love's condition. Good thing Love could always find a suitable position to fall asleep in, which was a good thing. Could Love feel it when he's about to fall asleep?

He hadn't asked Love for his medical condition, and he only knew what Love had told him. He didn't want to pry because it's a personal thing, just like how his mental problem was also personal.

Taking a deep breath, he went back to work and would sometimes chat with Parisi about what to do with the documents he was unfamiliar with.

Fortunately, this time, Love woke up after three hours and Midnight was still working. The two acted like nothing happened and continued their conversation about their plan to travel to Wales tomorrow.

The next morning, they left around seven in the morning for Wales.

Midnight pulled out his phone from his front pocket and read Atticus Lockridge's profile again.

His job orientation stated that the Orgánosi would provide him with an Ultor after his training; however, he could also recruit and train someone else. Ultors were usually continental bosses' right-hand men, someone who would do confidential things on their behalf, so seamless cooperation and absolute trust were necessary.

Since Dominick recommended Atticus Lockridge, then he might have a potential, but the most important thing to him was not skills since that could be taught. It's how they'll get along that was most important to him.

"Boss, what if Lockridge disagreed with your offer?" Love, who was driving, asked his boss in the passenger seat.

Midnight shrugged. "We'll see then."

Over three hours later, they reached Cardiff. They spent another half hour getting to Atticus Lockridge's flat.

Love knocked on the door while Midnight surveyed the surrounding environment with his eyes.

As the door swung open, Midnight's gaze instantly fixed upon the individual who had opened the door. Observing the man's body language and the way his body was positioned behind the door, Midnight subtly nudged Love aside to shield him from potential danger.

"We're here to offer a job." As Midnight looked into Atticus' cautious eyes, a smile touched his lips; then, his eyes flickered towards the door panel. "Mind putting your gun down?"
