After leaving the old dock, Li Chuan them fast-fast drive away. The car speeding on KL road at night, street no people one, only got the orange streetlight shining here and there, shadow all blur-blur. The wind from the sea smell very wet, got a bit cold also.
Shen Qiu sit in the front seat, finger tap here tap there on his tablet, keep zoom in zoom out the map. The screen showing their movement after leave Westport.
"Just now the 'Branding' people split into two, leh. One side go southwest, another side still stay at port there, macam checking something," Shen Qiu say, voice got a bit tension.
"They confirm won't let us go so easy," Su Man check her gun again, face serious-serious.
Li Chuan hold the steering wheel, eyes steady on the road. "So, we don't take the road they waiting for us at."
Cheng Mo lean back, arms cross, expression a bit curious. "You mean we take another road?"
"No. We make them think we take another road," Li Chuan mouth slightly up. "Shen Qiu, you help us do the signal thing."
Shen Qiu react fast-fast, hand flying on keyboard, code scrolling fast like KL highway traffic jam also cannot catch up. Few second later, he raise eyebrow. "Settle already. Now they tracking also will kena tipu. I create fake signal moving to another side."
Su Man nod, but still careful. "But what if they not using tracker, leh? What if got people physically looking?"
"Then see they luck lo," Li Chuan just finish talk, suddenly he see a small blinking light in the mirror behind.
"Aiyah, die lah. They got drone," Cheng Mo straight away react, press window button, half body come out, squint at the sky.
Shen Qiu fast-fast try to jam the signal, but the screen all red. "This one encryption very strong, lah! I need more time to hack."
"Where got time?" Cheng Mo already take out gun. "I shoot it down now."
"No," Li Chuan say one time, voice serious. "We cannot let them know we saw it."
Su Man frown, "Then how, leh?"
Li Chuan eye colder now. "We make them judge wrongly."
His foot press accelerator, the car suddenly move damn fast. At a few big junctions, he turn sharp-sharp, make it look like they panicking.
"They will think we running like chicken no head," Shen Qiu say, stare at his screen. Then he laugh a bit. "That drone already move wrong way."
"If they receive data showing we simply run, their ground team will blur-blur," Li Chuan say, voice very steady.
Su Man finally breath out. "That mean we can escape now."
But just when she finish talk, suddenly the car speaker got sound.
A robotic voice come out, macam from inside the car—
"Stop running. We know where you all going."
Li Chuan eye shrink a bit. Without think, he fast-fast turn the steering, the car zoom into a small lorong.
"They hack our communication channel," Shen Qiu face turn dark, finger type type type. "They very pro leh. Just now only, now already masuk."
Cheng Mo eye dangerous liao. "So, 'Branding' not just simple mercenary loh."
Li Chuan brain already running fast. They kena monitor closely, if simply run, confirm kena again.
"Shen Qiu, our side got what jamming device?"
Shen Qiu open his bag fast, check-check. "Got one small EMP jammer, but very short range. Only can use two minute."
Li Chuan nod. "Enough."
Then he suddenly pull the steering, the car rush into one old tunnel near Subang. Inside the tunnel, very dark, all light also spoil already. When reach inside, he press emergency brake, car stop at one shot.
Cheng Mo and Su Man raise eyebrow, body already alert. "What plan?"
Li Chuan eyes sharp like parang. "We stop running. Now we attack back."
Shen Qiu already understand, his hand move very fast, press the EMP button.
Just one second, all the signal inside the tunnel gone.
The drone—off. The hacker—disconnected.
Li Chuan look at his watch. "Two minute, we must hilang."
Cheng Mo smile, push open the car door. "Then let's go, lah."
