Chapter 117 The Style of Mercenaries
Joe Ga and his team carried their bags as they burst through checkpoints and ran roughly a kilometer, skillfully twisting and turning through the streets and alleys of Catania to avoid surveillance. They then took a taxi to switch cars and bags around the city, only to return to the cabin on Mount Tauro in the evening.
As Joe Ga pushed the door open and entered the cabin, his first move was to lie down on the couch. While letting out a sigh of relief, he said to Antar, "Call Elephant and tell him to hurry up and meet with us.
I don't know if Leather Head will target us or not, we need to make some preparations."
Nis took out her G29, loaded a new magazine, and then leaned the gun against the wall at the corner of the dining room.

Placing it there would allow her to grab the gun quickly should any problems arise, ready to launch an attack on the lawn outside the dining room.
Karman brought down two boxes from the second floor, filled six AK magazines with bullets, bound them with tape on opposite sides, and stuffed them into his tactical vest, then he tucked the tactical vest and the AKM under the couch.
Seeing both his teammates readying their main weapons, Joe Ga began preparing his own pistol magazines. He reluctantly prepared six HK416 magazines, four SVD magazines, and four M9 pistol magazines for himself as well.
While working, Joe Ga also said, "Actually, there's no need to be too nervous; Leather Head's first targets definitely aren't us."
Upon hearing this, Karman hesitated, then looked at Joe Ga and said, "Boss, you can let me handle the cleanup next time. Killing them when we leave is the best option."
Joe Ga firmly shook his head and replied, "Killing them is pointless. Not to mention whether any passersby noticed us, our bullets are also different from those of the gunmen.
If the Italian police are worth their salt, they could deduce from the crime scene that there was another group involved.
We are still safe for now, because the Italians would definitely chase after those mercenaries first.
I hope those guys can hold the Italians off for as long as possible, so when we go to take out the remaining members of the Mori Family, it might even be a bit easier."
As he spoke, Joe Ga frowned in thought and said, "Does anyone remember any distinctive features of those mercenaries?
Even though their faces were covered, I think those people were still recognizable.
I saw one guy with a terrible scar on his neck...
These guys are madmen; if we ever run into them, it would be best to shoot first."
After Joe Ga finished asking, Antar put away his phone and said, "I've made contact with Elephant. He says the highway has been blocked, and he needs to take a detour into Catania. It will probably take him another two hours to get here."
As he spoke, Antar began to sort out his weapons and ammunition, then said, "One of them had a cobra tattoo on his arm, and there was another very thin guy with a slight disability on his left leg, definitely not a recent injury."
Nis got her FN57 pistol magazines ready, inserted the pistol into its holster, and then said, "One of the guys had an inverted cross tattoo on the left side of his neck."
Joe Ga took meticulous notes, then asked, "Does anyone remember how many of them got away?"
"7!"
Karman decisively said, "I saw two machine gunners and five riflemen.
Not all of their men died; these guys left their own wounded on the highway.
This is standard mercenary style; they don't have backup, and when their comrades are wounded, they can only choose to leave them behind."
Upon hearing this, Joe Ga said with contempt, "These people have no loyalty; they're probably not any remarkable mercenaries."
Upon hearing this, Karman shook his head and said, "Those injured are all in critical condition; they were deliberately left behind. Otherwise, they would have likely been silenced already."
"What do you mean? They leave their comrades for the Italian police willingly, and they're not afraid of being betrayed?"
As he spoke, Joe Ga looked at Karman's meaningful expression, and then he suddenly realized and said, "You mean they might attack the hospital?
They deliberately left the injured behind so they could receive medical treatment, and once their conditions stabilize, those guys will..."
Karman nodded and said, "I don't know about Europa, but in Africa, if those left behind aren't killed or don't kill themselves, they're certain that their comrades will come to rescue them.
The people we met today were quite formidable; had that one missile not gone astray, we wouldn't have had the upper hand.
But these people have nothing to do with us. Boss, shouldn't we change our location?"
While Joe Ga was contemplating Karman's suggestion, Nis suddenly picked up a letter from the ground, glanced at the text, and handed it to Joe Ga, saying, "If possible, we really should leave Catania. In fact, we could leave the Elephant here and take a boat to Tunisia.
There happens to be a young girl there who seems very eager to see you."
With a frown, Joe Ga tore open the envelope, glanced at the letter, and then stuffed it back to Nis, saying, "Don't talk nonsense, coming on to minors is against the law. Anna wants to see all of us."
Saying this, Joe Ga stood up, poured a glass of water, took a sip, and walked to the living room's floor-to-ceiling window to gaze at the distant sea. After a moment of thought, he said, "We'll wait for news from the Elephant. He's the local bigwig here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Joe Ga seemed to remember something, leaned over to grab the remote, and turned on the television.
He flipped through several channels, and as expected, all were broadcasting the terror attack on the outskirts of Catania City's highway.
Joe Ga tuned into an English channel and watched as the host spoke with a mournful tone: "Today, a terror attack occurred on the Catania freeway, resulting in the death of 13 civilians.
An entire GIS squad was nearly wiped out; however, they valiantly held off the terrorists from continuing their slaughter and killed four of their number, injuring three.
The three injured terrorists have been taken to a hospital in downtown Catania for emergency treatment, and our police force is waiting for the outcome of the rescue efforts, hoping to get clues from the injured terrorists and capture all those who fled."
As the host spoke, he took a slip of paper handed to him by someone beside him,read it, and then, with an excited expression, said, "Members of the Italian National Security Department, accompanied by two GIS detachments, have arrived in Catania; their spokesperson is currently holding a press conference on the scene.
Let's switch to the scene to see what the Department of Security has to say about this."
The camera in the TV switched to the scene on the highway.
Before Joe Ga could make anything out, several gunshots rang out from the TV, and then several tall bodyguards protected a middle-aged, short, and stout bald man, evacuating him from the press conference scene.
From this moment, all of Catania descended into chaos!
......
Standing in front of his office's floor-to-ceiling window, the second son of the Mori family watched the large numbers of police cars below and uttered a frustrated roar. While marching out, he said to his subordinates, "Notify the people from 'Blood Spider' to lay low for a while.
Contact 'Gunfire'; we need more manpower, and this time I'll pay double.
Bring me the lawyer; we're in trouble!"
