"Bullet to the heart"

♠♥♣♦


Everything changed when we reached the location. It was even more serious than we thought. Heavily armed gunmen guarded the shipping containers while the workers kept loadings them with boxes.

Today after checking out of the hotel, we decided to divide into two teams. Only four of us decided to sneak in to the deserted warehouse at the location to know what was going on. The rest of us were going to go to the main market area. RM has a hunch that Kang's money launderers are there.

"Okay, stick with each other and carefully watch your backs. Get information or anything important which might help us in our further plans." Yixing raised his eyebrow towards me and Baekhyun. Chanyeol was getting ready with his weapons and all the stuff that he needed.
"Okay, the maximum time limit to continue the search is fifteen minutes though. It's enough for us to get something useful." Baekhyun spoke up and hid a gun near his ankle. I agreed with him and got ready to go.

Chanyeol and Yixing hid their weapons and snuck into the warehouse. Me and Baekhyun decided to get into the ship in which they were loading the containers. We got closer to it by crawling near the bushes and got on it with the help of a rope hanging by the side. We successfully snuck past them to enter the inner parts of the ship.

"These are just containers filled with packets of drugs that they are exporting." I spoke up while looking inside one of the open containers. Just then Baekhyun took one of the packets and kept it in his bag. I looked at him with a mix of confusion and irritation but he grinned and spoke, "No personal use. Just some research purposes. You know."

I sighed, "Whatever, but just remember to invite me too. I would love to test their products." We fist bumped and carried on our search.
We snuck into a few rooms on that ship but didn't found anything else other than packed drugs.

"Let's search separately. It will be much faster this way." He spoke up while looking further into the corridor to check if someone was out there or not. My gut feeling was telling me to say no and stick to the original plan of staying together. But he had a point, we had to be quick before anyone catches us, so I nodded in agreement.

Baekhyun parted away to check the storage area while I tried to walk towards the main engine room. I glanced in to look if someone was there or not. I opened the door a bit to let myself in, trying to make as minimal noise as possible. I saw a few clothes lying here and there, bottles of alcohol and dirty dishes were laying in the corners. A few bags and files were also lying near a chair. I went towards it and searched for anything important. I saw a map on which a few lines were drawn and places were encircled.

My eyes widened as I finally saw what it was. At first I thought that they were going to ship whatever was in it to Japan but it was even more than that. They had it all well planned.

It was clear that they were going to send two parts of this shipment to Hiroshima and Kyushu. Then another batch would be transported to Shanghai via the East China Sea and then from there to Ningbo and Tai-Pei. This meant that they had exporting contracts with Japan, China and even Taiwan. I sighed. I heard the door open up. My blood ran cold as I didn't know what to do now. I clicked a photo of that map and stuck it back in the bag and slid it away to its place and immediately hid behind a big metal pipe.

"No! I told you that we will leave after a few minutes!"

Someone was yelling. There were two of them. I tried not to see what was going on as I didn't want to get caught.

"No, that is not right. There was a warning for a thunder storm. We will be leaving tomorrow morning when the weather has cleared."

"You don't get it! We are already late for the shipment orders and he will have our heads if we don't do what he said! Thunder storm or not, we are leaving today."
