Chapter 308: Chapter 307: Absolutely Perfect

Mike really didn’t blacken the reputation of French police.

Yang Yi and his team had their faces covered, and they were all bloody after the fight in the gym. Considering the number of times people passing by or escaping must have called the police, it was shocking that they didn’t encounter a single officer when they decided to withdraw.

When they were driving away from the scene, they encountered just one police car, only one.

They were in the heart of Paris, the busiest area, and yet after such a big battle, they ran into only one police car.

Moreover, that police car just whizzed past Yang Yi’s vehicle.

Honestly, Yang Yi had been worried about running into French elite forces, such as the National Gendarmerie Intervention Group or the like, but now he was relieved and grateful for the sluggishness of the French police. This kind of response time would be shameful and unforgivable negligence for the police of any country, but it seemed to be quite normal in France.

Yang Yi truly felt it was necessary to stay in Paris more often, not for any other reason, but for the sense of security that could be felt only in Paris.

It took them nearly an hour to get out of Paris. They stopped in the dense woods west of Paris, where they treated their wounds briefly, cleaned any traces from the car, and then set fire to it before making their separate ways back to their base in the seventeenth arrondissement.

The money had already been put into bags in the car. Once back at the base, Mike, who had returned in the same car as Yang Yi, was the first to dump the money on the dining table and start counting it.

"We’ve got a total of 990,000 euros!"

Mike was initially excited, but after speaking, his expression darkened as he angrily said, "Fuck! Just 10,000 short of a million euros, we only have 990,000 euros!"

Yang Yi couldn’t help but say, "Please, can you take me to see a doctor? I think I need medical attention..."

Glancing at Yang Yi, who was again covered in blood, Mike dismissed the idea, "You’re not going to die; I’ll just treat it for you."

Looking concerned, Kate asked Yang Yi, "How do you feel?"

"It hurts, it hurts a lot..."

Yang Yi didn’t feel it so much in the heat of the moment, but now that he was relaxed, he found the wounds terribly painful.

Kate looked frantic and said to Mike, "Aren’t we going to the hospital? His stomach is bleeding."

"It’s not necessary."

Mike, holding a medical kit, sat down in front of Yang Yi and said, "Let me give you simple treatment, stop the bleeding first. It’s better not to go to the hospital. Many people died in the Fearless Club, and once the police realize the severity of the situation, they’ll push this case onto the gendarmerie and the domestic security agency. So, hospitals will be closely watched. Going to an underground clinic is even worse. This is Paris, Fearless Group’s home turf. They’ll definitely search for us in the underground clinics. You’ll just have to bear with it until we get somewhere else to treat your wounds properly."

It wasn’t that they didn’t need to go to the hospital; they simply couldn’t go. Yang Yi decided to endure the pain, putting safety first.

Mike began cleaning Yang Yi’s wounds and then performed a simple suturing.

Mike seemed quite adept at handling these matters, but the problem was that he didn’t use any anesthesia, so Yang Yi was getting stitched up without any pain relief, over a dozen stitches.

After suturing Yang Yi’s wounds, Mike went to wash his hands and then returned to the table covered with money, speaking gravely, "There are too many places we need to spend money. One million euros is far from enough. We have to figure out a way to make some money quickly."

Yang Yi said weakly, "Given our fighting capability, why not just rob a bank? It’s fast money."

Mike frowned and said, "Rob a bank? It’s not out of the question."

Yang Yi raised his voice, "Hey, I was joking. You’re not serious, are you?"

Mike spread his hands, "Why not? You’re right, with our abilities we could totally rob a bank."

But Mike soon frowned and said, "But robbing a bank is indeed a bit too low-end for us. We’re a spy organization, not a crime syndicate. As a seasoned spy, I’m quite averse to the idea of robbing banks."

Yang Yi waved his hand dismissively, "Let’s drop it. I was just kidding. We can rip off criminals, but we can’t rob banks. That’s just too... low-level."

Just then, someone knocked on the door. Kate went to open it, and then Brian and the other two carried someone into the room.

After Brian and his team returned, Zhang Yong and the others quickly followed them into the house.

Once everyone was gathered, Yang Yi asked Paul and Charles with concern, "Are you guys okay?"

Paul said in a grave voice, "I was shot twice, but the bullets didn’t penetrate the bulletproof vest. I was lucky."

Paul and Charles had both been shot, but they were indeed fortunate that the Level III bulletproof vests without the ballistic plates intercepted the bullets. However, without the protection of the plates, the injuries inflicted by the bullets were still very painful.

Paul took off his bulletproof vest and lifted his shirt, revealing two purple bruises on his body.

Mike smiled and said, "I’ll purchase heavy bulletproof vests as soon as possible. Next time there’s a fight, we definitely won’t take risks like this time."

Brian pointed to the money on the table and asked, "How much?"

"990,000 Euros."

Zhang Yong said with a chuckle, "Can we split this take? I’m just asking because I’m really broke right now."

Mike shook his head, "We can’t split it, because our funding gap is huge, and this money is far from enough."

Brian nodded, then kicked the captive lying on the floor, "Let’s start interrogating this guy, get a clearer picture of the situation."

Mike pointed towards the bathroom and instructed, "Don’t make too much noise, and keep it clean. I’ll start arranging our departure from France. We should leave France by tomorrow at the latest, and head to London."

Though separated from the European mainland by a channel, London is the intelligence hub of Western Europe. It was only logical for the Organization of Water to use London as their main base. The move had already been discussed and agreed upon, so there was no need for further discussion. They would just go.

Brian and his two companions took the captive into the bathroom.

Mike looked at everyone and then said with a smile, "Today’s operation was very successful, guys. I thought someone would die, or at least get seriously injured. But Lady Luck was on our side, and nobody got hurt. It’s really fortunate."

Yang Yi coughed lightly and then pointed to himself. Mike shook his finger and said, "No, this doesn’t count as an injury."

Ignoring the injured Yang Yi, Mike smiled and exclaimed, "We surpassed our goal. Bass is dead, we’ve made a name for ourselves, and we’ve come into an unexpected sum of money, easing our current financial crisis. So congratulations, everyone. The Organization of Water’s first mission was a perfect success, absolutely perfect."
