Chapter 62: Chapter 62 The Assassination at Bogota Airport
In the city center of Bogota, they found an ordinary hotel to stay in. It wasn't because they couldn't afford a luxury hotel, rather, this type of hotel didn't require identification upon check in and wouldn't leave any trace.
The next day,
The two of them got up and hailed a taxi on the street.
They bought some tools at a hardware store.
Then they arrived at Bogota Airport. The car was parked in the parking lot, and they carefully surveyed the area inside the airport.
According to their intelligence,
Dani would be on tonight's flight.
They also knew the flight number.
It wouldn't be difficult for Henry and Matthew to kill Dani, but to silently eliminate him as instructed by Boss Hardy and obtain the check, that would be challenging.
They didn't know if the Colombians would come to pick him up, how many would come, or which hotel he would stay at. Therefore, they could only play it by ear for now.
Dani was sitting on the plane.
He was somewhat overweight, and the conditions of airplanes back then were a bit harsh. During the flight, the plane encountered strong turbulence, causing Dani to feel nauseous.
Fortunately, he wasn't the only one throwing up.
Nausea combined with fatigue made Dani feel a headache. He took out painkillers and swallowed two tablets, then managed to get some relief after sleeping for half an hour.
Damn it,
If it weren't for helping the gang's business, I wouldn't endure this suffering.
Thinking about the gang,
He thought of several other gangs in Los Angeles. Because of his instigation some time ago, the Austrian gang and the Irish had been in turmoil for a while.
Both suffered considerable losses.
The Austrian gang's casino was robbed, several bars and nightclubs were attacked, and smuggled liquor was seized by customs.
The Irish dog track was poisoned and closed, their business was attacked, and a few leaders were taken out by the Austrians .
The two gangs were already on the brink of conflict.
He just watched from the sidelines.
Reaping the benefits.
At that time, Dani had thought about letting the two gangs exhaust themselves in battle while he secretly developed in the background. When he had accumulated enough strength, he would then confront the largest gang in Los Angeles.
But for some reason, during this period, his own gang had been repeatedly attacked. Casinos were robbed, drug deals were interrupted, causing him enormous losses.
Especially the cocaine business with Colombia, which was his most important business. Even though he was also a victim, he had to raise funds to come to Colombia to find General Gustavo, hoping to continue their cooperation.
Damn it, after all this trouble, Dani found that the Austrian gang and the Irish were still strong, while his Spanish gang suffered the most losses.
Could it be that the Austrian gang was secretly plotting against him? Or was it the Irish?
Although he had temporarily allied with the Irish, who could trust alliances in gangs business?
His intention weren't pure to began with and it didn't take a genius to figure out his true intentions. It's normal for them to secretly target him and weaken his gang.
This time he brought cash checks to find General Gustavo. He was very confident about this transaction. Once he got this batch of goods back, at the current market price, he could quickly cover the funding gap.
He believed that with sufficient funds,
Business would soon return to normal.
By then, he would have the strength to deal with the other two gangs again. During this time, the Irish and the Austrians seemed to be cooling down, which he couldn't accept.
At 9:50 in the evening.
The plane finally landed.
Dani found it difficult to get up. The bodyguard helped him off the plane. Beforehand, he had telegraphically contacted General Gustavo, informing him of his arrival time. However, there was no response, meaning Gustavo had no intention of sending someone to meet him.
He knew this was Gustavo's way of asserting dominance.
But it didn't matter.
Dani was a flexible and adaptable guy, knowing that Gustavo agreed to meet him was enough.
The bodyguard supported Dani and walked outside. Dani saw a restroom ahead and said to the bodyguard, "I'm going to the restroom. Wait for me here."
"Okay, boss."
The bodyguard stayed outside the restroom to keep watch over the luggage.
At that moment, two white youths entered the restroom, each carrying a travel bag. The bodyguard instinctively glanced at them but assumed they were just passengers who had disembarked from the plane and didn't pay much attention.
Inside the restroom.
Dani finished attending to his personal hygiene and was washing his hands when the two white youths entered. Dani glanced at them in the mirror but continued washing his hands without much thought.
But in the instant he lowered his head, a rope tightened fiercely around his neck, and Dani's eyes widened instantly.
He tried to shout, but the person beside him covered his mouth tightly.
"Mmm!"
Dani could only emit a weak sound.
Unable to breathe, he subconsciously tried to grab the rope, but it was already deeply embedded in his neck and unreachable.
Suffocation set in. Dani felt death closing in on him.
He struggled desperately. His legs kicked involuntarily.
After two to three minutes,
Dani completely lost consciousness.
Matthew released the rope, and Henry felt Dani's neck for a pulse. It was no longer beating.
"Matthew, go call Dani's bodyguard in."
Matthew stepped out.
Dani's bodyguard was standing by the luggage. When Matthew saw him, he said urgently, "There's a middle aged fat man collapsed on the ground inside. Is he with you? Come and take a look."
The bodyguard hurriedly followed him inside.
Inside the restroom.
Dani lay on the ground with bulging eyes.
The bodyguard instinctively rushed over, but suddenly a rope appeared behind him and looped tightly around his neck. The bodyguard's reaction was much faster than Dani's, he instinctively tried to break free, but at that moment, someone punched him hard in the temple.
Bang!
The bodyguard immediately felt dizzy.
Then came a strong feeling of suffocation, and before long, he was choked to death.
This was the ground floor. Earlier, Henry and Matthew had surveyed the area. Opening the restroom window revealed an area of the airport outside, but they needed to enter the airport to reach this spot.
They opened the back window, threw Dani and the bodyguard's bodies out, tossed the luggage out as well, then jumped out themselves. They closed the window, and everything returned to normal. No one could tell that a murder had just occurred here.
"Matthew, go steal a car from the airport," Henry said.
"No problem, wait for me."
For someone who used to be a truck driver, stealing a car was no big deal for Matthew. He circled around the airport twice and settled on a ground service maintenance pickup.
In a few minutes, they had started the car and pulled up next to the bodies.
The two of them placed Dani and the bodyguard's bodies in the back of the pickup truck, covered them with a tarp, tossed the luggage in the cab, and drove towards the gate.
"Beep, beep!"
The gatekeeper saw the ground service vehicle and simply opened the gate without even checking.
Henry and Matthew smoothly left the airport.
They drove to a wilderness area outside the city center of Bogota. It was pitch black all around. The pickup truck stopped, and Henry and Matthew both turned to look at the dead fat man, Dani, in the back seat.
"Henry, do you think the check is still on him?"
"Stop guessing, let's search him!"
The two of them thoroughly searched Dani. Finally, in Dani's briefcase, they found the paper they were looking for. They huddled together and examined it carefully with a flashlight.
300 000$ anonymous cash check.
Henry and Matthew grinned together.
"Haha, we're going to be rich now," Matthew exclaimed excitedly.
Henry took the check and stuffed it into his bag, then patted the still excited Matthew. "Let's get to work. The boss said to make sure Dani disappears without a trace. We need to dig a deeper hole to ensure he's never found."
