Chapter 376. Operation: Brainjack, Phase 2; Luring out the Brain (2/10)
She turned around and started to unbutton the blue cardigan she had buttoned up while allowing the straps on her black dress to slide down her shoulders.
While she was doing that I reached under the bottom lining of the fat suit I had on and pulled out what I’d been hiding inside it.
I raised it up in my right hand, pressed the barrel up directly against the back of her head, and spoke in my normal voice, “Don’t move an inch, or I shoot. Put your hands up where I can see them, and drop the taser.”
She froze in place.
“Is that… a real gun?”
It was quite difficult to acquire guns in this city since they were heavily restricted and regulated so it was normal for her to be surprised. Outside of the police and military, only gangs or criminals who moved about underground had the means to get their hands on plentiful amounts of guns in this city.
For everyone else in the city, you had to go through an extensive licensing process to legally carry a gun here. Something I did not have. Then, how did I get my hands on this suppressed pistol? Was it through Faceless? No, it was not. I’d gotten my hands on this a couple of months back as insurance. I never thought I’d need to use it, but I’m now thankful I made the arrangements for Rosa’s mother to send me an untraceable one in case an emergency ever popped up.
Since I received it from her, I’d kept it tucked away under my bed in a box where nobody would find it.
“Would you really like to play that game and see whether it’s a toy?”
She shook her head without a word and slowly raised her hands up.
The taser was in her right hand.
“Drop the taser now.”
“Okay.”
She opened her hand and let it fall.
She thought she could use the moment where my eyes were locked onto the taser to snatch it out of the air with her left hand, but while she was in the middle of turning around I raised my right leg up and kicked her on the back. She failed to catch the taser and it continued to fall.
She fell on her side onto the ground. Before she could scream for help, I moved forward, lowered my body closer to the ground as I tossed the pistol over to my left hand, and caught the taser just before it hit the ground with my right hand. I jumped on top of her, pinned her arms to the ground beneath my knees, positioned the taser on the right side of her neck, then covered her mouth with my left arm and pressed the button.
Her eyes widened as she cried out in pain as the current ran through her body and she stiffly spasmed under me. Her cry had been muffled thanks to the side of my arm obstructing her mouth.
When I released the button, I pulled my left arm out of her mouth and replaced it with the barrel of the gun in my left hand.
I looked down at her coldly, dead in the eyes, and said, “You scream for help, you die. Blink once if you understand. Blink twice and you die.”
Her body was limp, but she was able to at least blink and she did. Once. Her eyes were filled with resentment and hatred rather than fear though.
“Now, where are the handcuffs you keep on you?”
She seemed a bit surprised that I knew she carried handcuffs on her.
Just knowing that she had them on her was good enough.
I removed the taser from her neck and tucked it under the fat suit. I pulled the gun out from her mouth and covered her nose and mouth with my right hand. I stored the gun in my left hand under my fat suit before I squeezed down on her neck with my left hand and pushed up against her chin to prevent her mouth from opening.
“I’ll need you to take a short nap.”
She closed her eyes and tried to resist by weakly kicking her legs up to try and break free, but she was helpless and couldn’t exert her full strength after being tased. After two minutes, her resistance completely died down and she lost consciousness. At the three-minute mark, I released her.
She should be out for a few minutes like this.
It was at that moment I tasted something sweet at the back of my mouth. From that, I knew Rosa had successfully retrieved Jass and he’d paid the price.
The rescue mission was pretty simple. Nothing complicated at all. When Jass was surrounded by Swastika, all Rosa had to do to get him out was ride in on my motorcycle and toss out a fire extinguisher she rigged with a few rubber bands wrapped around the lever, a wedge to keep it open, and a string to pull out the wedge so the lever would shut closed under the force of the rubber bands. It would spin about on the ground in a circle making it so nobody would see her.
If they had guns they couldn’t shoot blindly through the thick smoke otherwise they might shoot one of their own.
The price for getting bailed out there was Jass’s soul. If he refused to sign the contract then Rosa would have kicked him off the bike and left him there.
I took out a two-way radio from under the fat suit, pressed the button, and whispered, “Rosa, you just got Jass, right?”
“Yeah, I did. How’d you know?”
“A lucky guess. Drop him off somewhere safe and get over here now. I’m about two blocks east of the convenience store. It’s a closed-off area surrounded by four buildings with only a single entrance to the main road.”
“Did you get the Mike?” It was code for Malory since Jass was with her. If he knew we captured Malory, he’d probably want to come along and talk to her thinking there was some sort of misunderstanding. We didn’t have time for that crap.
“Yes.”
“Alright, I’ll be there in two minutes.”
“Good. Hurry.”
I stored the two-way radio back under the fat suit before I turned my attention back to Malory.
I moved lower down her body while sliding my hands over her sides feeling her body through her clothes.
When I reached her hips I felt something hard on both sides.
My hands slid up along her legs under the bottom opening of her one-piece until I felt two metallic rings on each side of her hips. They were the handcuffs I’d been looking for.
I retrieved both pairs and used one of them to cuff her feet together. With her immobile and still unconscious, I picked her up off the ground and moved her over to the side of one of the dumpsters. There was a second dumpster closer to the exit along the same wall. I lowered Malory back to the ground belly down.
I checked Malory’s pockets and retrieved her phone. Sadly, it was locked and required a passcode to unlock it.
I had to get the passcode out of her. Would she tell me though? If I made it obvious I wanted it, she’d have leverage over me and know that I couldn’t kill her unless I got it.
I suppose the only way to get it would be if she willingly unlocks it herself. I looked up at the dumpster and had an idea. I balanced my phone on top of it so the camera was positioned over the edge looking down at Malory on the ground. I placed her phone down face up on the ground beside her head in frame with the camera.
I took out a roll of duct tape from my fat suit and wrapped it around her head three times to cover her mouth. It wouldn’t be easy for her to remove it without me noticing so her only option to get whatever goons she had waiting outside to help her would be her phone. While I was at it, I also cuffed her right wrist to the chain between her legs.
After that was set up, I pulled out my gun, moved to the second dumpster, and posted up with my shoulder against it down on one knee as I peeked around the edge in the direction of the exit away from Malory.
