DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

Chapter 174 CHAPTER 174: SEARCH AND DESTROY



It had to be someone who was extremely good at finding people, and like he had mentioned earlier, he knew a guy... girl, though she was more of a finding and exterminating or destroying the target... but it didn\'t really make that much of a difference as she was only going to be doing the first part of her job in this case... 

At least until she saved Romero... after that, well... 

Nobody would notice if a couple of criminals suddenly went missing, would they?

Those were the guys who were probably involved in attacking his company in a bid to steal some of his tech, so he wasn\'t planning on leaving them alive... and even if they were a different set of people, he would have them swimming with the fishes either way.

Annoying people like them shouldn\'t be left alive, who knew when they would do something even more stupid and annoying that could have even worse repercussions. 

The code here was, and had always been \'kill all forms of threats before they cause his fall\'.

As someone who had experienced a few falls, he had learned that being proactive was the best way to avoid the falls. 

Fuck the moral compass and kill the threat before you end up with a knife in the back of the throat would be his advice to anyone in the same situation as he was in.

He brought out his phone and opened the hidden caller app to call one of his special contacts and before long, his phone was already dialing a number and being held up to his ear.

It wasn\'t long before the call was picked up on the other end and the person on the other end of the call spoke, 

*"Davies," a female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Selina," he answered with a slight chuckle, wondering why she was making their greetings sound like one between Exes.

*"I\'m guessing this isn\'t a booty call, so... What do you need my help with?"* Selina was quite direct in her words and immediately got to asking why he had called her instead of just having the M.I.B channel deal with whatever needed to be done.

"I do need your help," Davies didn\'t hold back his request.

*"Well, I\'m pretty sure it is something important enough for you to call me directly,"* she said again, her mind already wondering about what could require him calling her directly. 

*"What is it?"* she asked, not waiting for a reply on his end.

"Nothing much... Just a typical case of search and rescue..." Davies said freely, but

*"Say what now. Rescue???"* Selina repeated like she hadn\'t heard his words the first time. Rescue wasn\'t part of her job description so she wondered if he was trying to say something else.

"I mean, there is a little bit of destroy and extermination, in there somewhere, but the main job is to find and rescue somebody,"* Davies explained, not bothered by her reaction.

*"... You do know that I don\'t take search and rescue operations, right?"*

*"I\'m not running an extraction squad, but an assassination squad. If anything, I\'m the one who does the kidnapping,"* Selina went on, trying to explain that she wasn\'t the rescuing kind, but Davies wasn\'t listening. 

"The target for rescue is a Romero... Nancy, less than ten years old," 

"I should be able to get someone to brief you on the full details when you land," Davies continued like he hadn\'t heard a single word she had been saying.

*"Can\'t you just look for him yourse-..."* she began but then paused. She had wanted to ask why he didn\'t just look for the person he wanted to find himself as she knew that he was just as good as she was when it came to finding people that wanted to stay hidden, but that was when her mind recognized someone he had just said,

*"Wait, hold up... Land?"* 

*"What do you mean land?"* Selina had a confused voice as she asked.

"Exactly what it sounds like, I want you to come over personally and deal with this mission," Davies elaborated.

*"You... Want me... To come over...?"* Selina repeated and even spelled out to be sure if what she heard was correct. 

"I think you heard me the first time," Davies sighed, almost rolling his eyes.

*"..."*

*"I\'m on my way right now..."* She spoke hurriedly and Davies could hear hurried movements from her end.

"Hey, you\'re only coming here for a job..." Davies tried to speak but was interrupted by Selina\'s hurried voice.

*"I\'ll be there in a thrice... See you soon, *Mwah*,"* she said in a hurried tone, sent a flying kiss and hung up before he changed his mind, leaving Davies holding his phone to his ear while hearing a beeping sound that signified that the call had been cut off.

"..."

\'She hung up on me...\' he thought with a raised.

He couldn\'t even tell her to first send a couple of her "squad members" to come to the scene and begin the investigation, but he knew that she would be able to take care of everything herself without any help from any of her compadres.

"I\'ve gotten someone that will help find Romero," He said as he turned towards the girls

"They\'re on their way and will find your little brother," he said specifically to Tisha as he walked up to her and patted her head in a bid to soothe some of her tension and unease.

"Sorry, I really have to go" He said with an apologetic tone and his face didn\'t betray the feeling in his voice as he really looked to be in a tight place.

Without waiting for a reply, he turned and ran off towards his car, not wiping the look on his face until he got into his car and shut the door.

"Argh, my face hurts," he muttered as his face reverted to the impassive and aloof look that was his default face while he started up the car\'s engine.

Continuously showing so much feeling on his face was quite tiring for his facial muscles, but he moved that to the back of his mind as he slammed on the accelerator and did a burnout spin to get his car in the direction of the road that led out of the hospital grounds and as soon as he was in the right direction, the car shot off and slowly righted itself as he charged out of the hospital grounds, his speed rapidly increasing as he sped off.

The car drifted itself onto the streets, decelerating a bit, but once it came out of the bend, it\'s speed rose back to its previous heights and emwent even higher.

The power had still not come back on and the city was still in a state of perpetual darkness and chaos, but officers of the law were on the roads and making sure that the whole city didn\'t fully delve into chaos.

Unfortunately, Davies did not care for them or the power they seemingly thought they had behind them and he simply drove through the slightly congested streets at blistering speed as fast as maneuvering around cars without crashing would let him.

That day, all officers of the law who were on the route between Thr Imperium Hospital and the Imperium Technologies building saw a blood red car with beautiful engravings driving at blistering speeds around and in-between cars, passing among them with spaces so narrow that a cat would be hard pressed to pass through them and no matter what they tried to do to stop the car driver, he simply sped past them, the wind barrage from his speeding vehicle carrying their loose pieces of clothing almost off their bodies.

The female officers were never more happier than today that they wore trousers like the men, otherwise... Everyone would get to see what kinds of tighty whiteys they wore underneath their clothes. 

At the speed he was going, he soon arrived at the Imperium Technologies grounds.

The gates were open so he drove in without reducing his speed and only brought the car to a stop when he reached the Imperium Technologies tower itself.

He quickly got down and looked up.

He onviously couldn\'t see anything clearly, but he wasn\'t looking for anything specific in the first place, rather he was trying to gauge the distance between the ground and the upper floors of the building as he wasn\'t planning on wasting time by going into the building and running up the staircases since the elevators wouldn\'t be working due to the blackout.

He was going to do something else... Something crazy.
