The Killer Queen (Noella Briony)

"The Baker Syndicate is surrounded!"

"Give it up!"

Bailey's face went ashen.

"Since when did Interpol have such a disregard for boundaries? Since when do they dare to meddle in the affairs of the Baker Syndicate?"

Jasper smirked coldly.

"Just because they didn't before, doesn't mean they're afraid of you."

Those informants buried alive were set up by Interpol!

Fury blazed in Jasper's eyes.

"Do you have any idea how painful being buried alive is? Those were real, living people! They had families, bright futures, not to be suffocated beneath the earth!"

"By showing their badges, you've directly challenged Interpol!"

Arguing about righteousness with the Baker Syndicate is like talking to a brick wall!

Bailey stepped back.

"So what if they've come? They're just here to scare us, they can't actually do anything."

"Besides, their arrival won't bring any good to you either! We're all in the same shady business, who's to say who's darker?"

They were used to being arrogant, with big backers, never taking Interpol seriously.

In front of Interpol, Noella and her team wouldn't fare any better!

Noella added, "Oh, I conveniently sent them your syndicate's defense layout."

"What? Are you insane? If they catch us, you're going down too!"

Millie shrugged.

"So, we get locked up in Alcatraz, then what?"

Then what?

Locked in prison, what else could happen?

Bailey's eyes widened in realization!

They had come from Alcatraz! Being sent back there was like going home...

But could it really be the same?

"Interpol won't let you off! Better to join forces with us now!"

Noella admired, "Ms. Baker, always so adaptable, quickly turning foes into friends."

But she had already said she wanted the entire Baker Syndicate!

"Your people have us surrounded, where are they?"

Bailey turned abruptly!

The men she had arranged were now unconscious on the ground, foaming at the mouth!

The agents from Starlight stood at the corner, waving at Bailey.

"Hello there, beauty."

"You... When did you sneak in?"

"The Baker Syndicate's firewall is just pathetic."Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

And they thought they could trap them with that?

On the other side, Erek and Annie, along with hitmen from Abyssal and Obelisk, gave Bailey the finger!

"The Baker Syndicate's famed femme fatale, not so impressive!"

"Better than their boss who's too scared to show up, probably already fled?"

Surrounded by Interpol, the Baker Syndicate was in complete chaos!

Many were looking to escape amidst the confusion!

Bailey took the chance to run towards the syndicate's interior, fearing she'd be caught by Interpol if she delayed any longer.

The helicopter slowly descended, landing in front of Noella.

The detective nodded at Noella.

"Thanks to the info you sent, the Baker Syndicate has crossed the line! We've had enough!"

"Business as usual."

"Right!"

Signaling to the people from Starlight and Obelisk, Noella looked at Millie.

"Jasper's in your hands now."

"Master, I want to come too! You didn't take me on the last mission!"

Jasper looked around, still confused about what was happening, when a sniper rifle was thrust into his hands.

Noella said solemnly, "Jasper, part of the Baker Syndicate is working with Toxic Kingpins on smuggling routes. Can you trace them?" The Baker Syndicate had remained unassailable at the border because they partly operated underground labs for drug production! "Sure, but it's too dangerous. You should go back to Uncle!"

All Jasper cared about was Noella's safety.

This place wasn't meant for his delicate sister!

How could Palmer bring his sweet sister here? This wasn't a place for a gentle girl!

Noella patted Jasper's shoulder.

Pushing him towards the cooperating detectives, "Please ensure my brother's safety."

"Don't worry!"

Watching Noella and Palmer, followed by Millie, head into the Baker Syndicate, Jasper's lips quivered!

"Officer, my sister won't be in trouble, right?"

The officer laughed.

"I can't say about your sister, but Wise Fool will be fine!"

Wise Fool? Wasn't that the leader of the top assassin organization in the deep web?

Surely, they weren't talking about his Noella!

Jasper felt his mind exploding!

Feeling Jasper's gaze, Noella turned and silently gestured a secret between them.

Jasper's heart trembled as he hurriedly followed the officers towards the underground lab, asking, "My sister hasn't been a bother, has she?"

"No bother at all. Thanks to her,

we've had many successful operations. If she hadn't mentioned her family wanting her back, we

would've invited her ted

Jasper's heart raced.

His eyes began to water.

The officer continued, "Your sister is incredible!"

Using herself as bait to help Interpol crack cases, she couldn't be bad!

"Did she... suffer a lot?"

"Of course this is the frontier! Any hardship you can and can't imagine exists here! Wise Fool even said she'd come back to help us if her

family wasn't good to her. Luckily, you've treated her well!"

They were friends with Noella, and at that moment, they even gave Jasper a friendly slap on the back.

It seemed they were genuinely happy for Noella's well-being!

As the international police went ahead to scout the road, Jasper stood footed to the spot, his emotions a complex whirlwind that was hard to articulate.

He never imagined his sister could be so formidable!

But even more unexpected were the unseen hardships and her pure heart!

After a moment, in a place where no one could see, Jasper discreetly wiped the corner of his eye.

"My sister is awesome."

"Jasper won't be the one to hold you back!"

He decided not to share this with the Schnabel family.

This was his sister's secret, her contingency plan for herself!

But Jasper wouldn't let this contingency become a reality. The role of her safety, after all, belonged to him, her brother!

Stepping forward, Jasper had already composed himself, shedding his usual carefree façade for a demeanor that was calm and serious.

"This path seems off. I found a couple of rattlesnakes around here earlier, and they weren't heading this way."

Drug cartels often capture rattlesnakes to extract their venom, using various chemicals to attract them.

Jasper touched the soil, brought it to his nose to smell, and then confidently declared.

"This is the right path!"

"Are you sure?"

Jasper met the international police officer's gaze, his eyes brimming with an undeniable confidence, lighting up the moment.

"When it comes to tracking, I'm your guy!"
