Wearing sunglasses and a hat, William got off the train and went directly to Kimmy and Amanda's residence.
He bought some bread and vegetables, put them in a large paper bag, and waited outside the building's electronic door.
The door was an electronic password door, so William's lock-picking skills were useless.
After waiting for about ten minutes, he saw a resident leave the building.
William quickly hugged the paper bag, pretending to be a resident, and slipped into the building before the electronic door closed.
After finding the room Bryan mentioned, he used his lock-picking tools to open the door.
Upon entering, he carefully searched the room with his mental power and soon found a broken phone that had been stepped on.
He picked up the phone, took out the memory card, and then went downstairs.
He found a laptop store, spent 500 US dollars to buy a laptop and a card reader, and began to examine the memory card.
The memory card contained only photos of Kimmy and Amanda.
William carefully examined each photo, enlarging them.
In a photo of Kimmy and Amanda together, he found a young man staring at them.
After zooming in again, a handsome young face appeared.
This should be the Pete that Kimmy mentioned.
Got you.
William picked up the laptop, walked out of the store, and at a corner, threw the laptop directly into his storage space.
He then took a taxi to the airport.
After paying and getting out of the car, William searched the airport for a long time but couldn't find Pete.
He asked an airport staff member and learned that due to the White Palace incident in America, many flights were canceled today.
The earliest landing flight would be at 4 AM tomorrow.
William checked his watch; it was 7 PM now, so he decided to go eat something first.
He found a hotel near the airport and slept.
At 3:30 AM, William was woken by his phone alarm.
After washing up, he took the breakfast prepared by the hotel service and ate it while walking to the airport.
Sitting in the arrival hall, William finally saw Pete carrying a bag walk in around 5 AM.
He sat not far from William, flipping through a magazine and watching the exit.
Until 6 AM, probably because he couldn't find a suitable target, the guy remained motionless in his chair.
William had considered knocking Pete out and dragging him away, but due to the White Palace incident in America, the airport was full of fully armed police and surveillance cameras, so there was no opportunity to act.
Half an hour later, the airport announcement declared that a plane from Australia was landing. Ten minutes later, a young blonde girl with a large backpack walked out of the arrival gate.
Alone, this type of girl was the perfect target for Peter and his crew to abduct. Peter immediately put away his magazine and followed the girl out of the airport.
When they reached the taxi stand, Peter initiated a conversation with the girl, saying, "Hi."
Hearing someone speak behind her, the girl turned around and saw that Peter was quite handsome. She smiled and replied, "Hi."
"My name is Peter. Are you here for tourism?"
"Yes, are you also traveling?" the girl asked.
Peter shook his head and said, "I'm returning to Paris from a business trip. May I ask, the taxi fare from the airport to the city center is still very expensive. Could we share a ride?"
Based on Peter's past experience, this girl, being targeted, was definitely a budget traveler. Hearing about sharing a ride, she immediately nodded in agreement and said, "That's a good idea, no problem."
"That's great! Every time I come back to Paris from a business trip, the most annoying thing is getting a taxi. The taxi fares at Paris airport are too high. As someone who's only been working for a short time, I always hope to find someone to share a ride with. Here comes a car, you get in first, I'll help you with your luggage."
Meeting a handsome and gentlemanly young man in an unfamiliar place made the girl very happy. She even hoped for a romantic encounter abroad. With a cheerful smile, she handed her large backpack to Peter and said happily, "Thank you! I'm so lucky; I didn't expect to meet such a kind person right after getting off the plane."
A taxi pulled up, and Peter opened the door for the girl, smiling and intending for her to get in first. As soon as the door was opened, Peter felt a huge force from behind him and was instantly pushed into the taxi.
William shoved Peter into the taxi. The confined space inside the car made it easier to control Peter, and there would be far fewer witnesses.
William followed him into the taxi. As soon as he got in and closed the door, William punched Peter in the abdomen, making Peter cry out in pain. William's left hand gripped Peter's right hand, while his right hand was clasped around Peter's neck. "Where are the two American girls you shared a ride with yesterday afternoon?"
Peter was stunned by the question. It was clear he knew who William was referring to, but he wouldn't dare tell William. He struggled and shouted, "Who are you? I don't know what you're talking about!"
William delivered another punch, this time with 50% of his strength, causing Peter to retch. The taxi driver, seeing this, quickly shouted, "Hey, what are you trying to do?"
"Ten thousand dollars to drive, and another ten thousand after we leave the airport," William said, throwing a stack of ten thousand dollars onto the passenger seat. He then punched Peter again. "Where are the two American girls from yesterday afternoon?"
The driver looked at the ten thousand dollars on the passenger seat, his expression hesitant and conflicted.
"If you don't speak, I'll break your ribs and pierce your stomach," William threatened.
Just as William was about to throw another punch, he was suddenly grabbed by a large black man who tried to drag him out of the taxi. William turned and kicked the black man in the face. Unexpectedly, this black man was quite resilient; he took William's kick but still tried to drag William out.
After William was pulled out of the taxi, he saw two more burly men running towards them behind the black man. They pulled out daggers as they ran and lunged at William.
William first dodged a dagger aimed at his abdomen, then pushed the man in the back. The man crashed into the taxi with a thud. The third man followed, lunging forward and slashing his dagger fiercely at William's neck.
William ducked his head and delivered a powerful punch to the abdomen of the close-quarters strongman. William was furious that this guy was so ruthless, directly aiming for his neck, clearly intending to slit it. So, William used 70% of his strength in this punch, ensuring the guy's spleen would rupture.
After taking the punch, the strongman quickly clutched his stomach and lay on the ground, wailing.
William turned and kicked the leg of the other man who was swaying and trying to stand up. With a 'crack,' the human trafficker's ankle was broken. Then, he grabbed the back of his head and slammed it hard against the taxi. With a 'thump,' the taxi's taillight shattered, and the human trafficker immediately bled from his head and passed out.
William looked at the taxi and saw that the left car door was already open. He turned his head and saw Peter, holding his stomach, desperately running towards the elevated highway about 20 meters away.
Seeing the keys still in the taxi, William casually closed the car door. He then delivered two quick punches to the face of the black man who had already stood up, then grabbed the dazed black man's head and slammed it against the taxi's hood. With a thud, the black man also passed out.
William got into the car and drove directly after Peter.
