YM778.TV Chapter 200: Compulsory Mission
But that did not get to her head. After all, she understood that gangsters were not that easy to deal with. She had already been in a situation of dealing with gangsters in several occasions, including the gangster hunts.
The last hunt that they had been involved in had ended up with them being caught by a group of gangsters who\'s leader even had a gun. Obviously, Scarlet would not want to experience such a situation.
Additionally, she understood one thing. In case she decided to take action against the group of gangsters, they would definitely target her the moment that they find her later on.
The only reason why she had taken action against that group of gangsters that was causing trouble for Christine was simply because of the relationship between the two of them. Otherwise, she would not have gotten herself involved in something like that, unless she was sure about that group of gangsters.
The gangster hunt that they were carrying out always made sure that they targeted the small gangs that did not have much support. Still, since they did not have much connections in the underworld, two times in a row, they failed to get the right intelligence about the gangsters.
And now here they were. Alfie was claiming that she could help, in a situation where even the police could not. Of course, she understood that perhaps the kind of help that Alfie was looking for was the one that they could go out and fight together.
But if that was the case, she did not want to get involved with that. After all, she was not going to gain anything out of it. Even though she possessed a heart that cared about the well-being of other people, it was not to the extent that she would ignore her own safety.
"I don\'t want to trouble you that much. The only help that I want from you is to help me rescue my family. We can just go to the base of the gangsters, fight our way in, before rescuing my family. After that, I will definitely look for my own way of making sure that they are not in trouble again." Alfie responded.
Scarlet squinted her eyes as she looked at Alfie. For some reason, she did not want to believe what he was saying. But looking at the sincere expression on his face, she was tempted to believe him.
"It\'s not that easy to be able to break into a gangster hideout. So, even if we go there, we might be sending ourselves into the hands of the gangsters, and this is not going to help at all." Scarlet stated out her doubts once again.
"If it is a big hideout of gangsters, then it is impossible for the two of us to be able to break inside the hideout. But the place where my family is being kept is not the main base of the gangsters." Alfie explained hurriedly.
"Is that so?" Scarlet asked, still feeling suspicious about the situation.
"That\'s the truth. Before I came looking for you, I made sure to investigate thoroughly. I\'m not sure about the plan that Harry has for me, to the extent that he kidnaps my family, still, I don\'t want my family to continue staying within the group of gangsters." Alfie responded.
"How long has it been since they were kidnapped?" Scarlet asked.
"They were kidnapped on Friday evening. Of course, they were kidnapped one by one, and it seems that Harry had been having his men follow them around. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to be able to kidnap all of them within one day, and so easily." Alfie stated with anger clear in his voice.
Scarlet found what Alfie had said to be logical. But just like Alfie had said, he also wondered what it was that Harry was planning, to the extent of kidnapping Alfie\'s family.
In normal situations, if a family was kidnapped, or a member of a family was kidnapped, it would be that the kidnapper would be wanting something from the family, or it was just a form of threatening the other party to do what they wanted them to do.
Jaden had been listening in on the conversation between the two of them. Still, he did not say anything, and remained silent as he listened. Just like Scarlet, he possessed doubts of his own, wondering if what Alfie was saying was actually the truth.
"Okay. Let\'s go now. Let\'s deal with this as soon as possible, so that I can come back and deal with my own things." Scarlet stated, having already made up her mind.
"Thank you so much in advance." Alfie stated, gratitude in his voice.
Even though he was trying to hold back, Jaden had managed to notice that there was a hint of tears in the corners of his eyes. Could it be that what he was saying was the truth?

Despite having his own doubts, Jaden did not say them out loud. Instead, he followed Scarlet and Alfie, as they headed towards the gate of the campus.
Of course, Scarlet understood that they were going to the Eastern part of the city. So, it was impossible for them to go there on foot. But at the same time, it was impossible for the three of them to use her sports car that could only carry one passenger.
When they got to the road, they stopped two cabs. With the one that Alfie was inside taking the lead, Jaden and Scarlet followed behind inside the other cab.
The journey to the destination that Alfie was taking them to, took about 40 minutes. The tax was different after all. Completely different from how Jaden would openly speed up, the taxi drivers were always quite careful on the road, to make sure that the condition of the vehicle was maintained.
After they alighted, Alfie went ahead and paid the bill. Then, he led the way down the street. Jaden had noticed that the street that they were currently in was not one that he was familiar with.
After all, even though he was living in the Eastern part of the city, the eastern part of the city was quite big. So, it was impossible for him to be able to know everywhere, as most of the time, he was not focusing on moving around to know the area, instead, he was looking for jobs to do.
And of course, most of the jobs that he was doing while located in the same area, the streets that connected with the inner part of the city.
After about 10 minutes of walking, they finally arrived outside a small bar. Since it was still in the morning, 9 to be exact, the bar did not have many people, even though it was open.
But despite all that, Jaden noticed that this particular bar was surrounded by several people. Even though they were not directly looking at the bar, they were currently doing their own actions, in different places, but they were in something like a pattern.
Of course, just by looking at them, Jaden immediately understood that they were gangsters. He did not have to scrutinize them carefully, considering that after staying within the Eastern part of the city for more than 6 years, Jaden quite understood the personalities of the gangsters in this part of the city.
"It is within this bar. There is a basement within. It is in the basement that they have kept my family. I don\'t know the condition that they are currently in, but I have made sure to be precise about the information about this bar." Alfie whispered to Scarlet.
Scarlet nodded. Just like Jaden, she had noticed that there was a group of people that seemed suspicious. She did not have to guess that much to understand that they were the gangsters that were in charge of this hideout.
"The plan that I am having is that we will go inside the bar. But of course, we will not start fighting from the entrance. Instead, we will try as much as possible to approach the entrance of the basement. And if possible, if we can sneak into the basement and take out my family, it should not be that bad." Alfie explained the plan that he was having.
As one person, it was difficult for him to be able to deal with this. After all, while he was alone, the gangsters were not. Additionally, he had to fight, while protecting his family at the same time. That was so difficult to do.
But with Scarlet\'s help, it should not be that much difficult to be able to help her family get out of here. After all, the two of them were experts when it came to fighting, and it would not be that much difficult for them to handle a dozen of guys who only knew how to brawl.
Scarlet nodded. It seemed that Alfie had made quite a good plan. So, she looked at Jaden, and realizing that he seemed to be intending to follow them, she felt relieved. At least with Jaden here, she would not have to worry that much, unless the ones that they were going to deal with had guns.
What Scarlet did not know was that despite not having much of a reaction on his face, Jaden was a little anxious in his heart. The reason behind that was that he had received a prompt, giving him a compulsory mission.
