Better be survived (2)

Dennis team already clean the hotel's rooms, alternate the CCTV record and made sure none can be traced back to them.

A mansion built hanging on the cliff, hidden from the air and land. There is inconspicuous cave underneath with huge harbor inside, enough for two commercial ships, few smaller ships and few speedboats. Now the harbor is rather empty, a man stand on it nervously. "How long?" he ask,

"In thirty minutes, Sir" a man responded.

Dennis stand in waiting with worry showed in his face, he wear a white t-shirt with rolled sleeves. A tie peeking from his breast pocket, both of his hand hiding in his pants pockets. Behind him a team of medical experts with necessary equipment are ready, the available facilities can even be used for severe operations such as brain surgery or heart transplantation. They were ready for the any medical situation, expect the worst.

From a far, a machine sound could be heard. In few minutes, a super slim speed boat come to the harbor. On the back seat, a girl covered in blanket being held by a bluff man. Dennis immediately came closer and take the girl even before the boat rests fully. The medical team approaching them with a gurney and push it to the elevator.

Not long after, another boats come with a batch of weak people. They was the other hostages that saved together with Sou. Another medical team taking care of them, but not take them inside the mansion. They bring those victim to the another bigger ship, the ship big enough to accommodate two hundreds passenger.

"No need to worry", one of the rescue team talked after seeing the panic stricken faces, "We will take you to a city nearby. We already record all of your information and will contact the government representation, they will send all of you home safely"

One of the hostage suddenly stand up, "Please no, they will find me and send me back to the base. Please, send me anywhere but back to the damned place", she begging frantically. Others start doing the same, scared to refound.

The rescue team leader was confused, he cannot make a decision so he call Dennis phone number.

Dennis rigidly stand outside the ward, a glass window show him the activity inside. His heart beating fast, his palm clenched inside his pocket. All negative thinking arise in his mind. A phone call distract him, "Hello? hmmm..Ji An will take care of it".

The man called Ji An stand nearby, he noded and leave. He understood that it was for all other lucky hostages. After working nearly five years as Dennis' assistant, he always known by his meticulously work. Fast, clean and accurate, sometime heartless - nope, its 'often'.

Dennis turn his attention back to the ward, 'This girl better survived'.
