Chapter 503 Stalking and Observing
222 Karaoke Bar, Emel, Kokoro Islands.
Theo, Ayia, Shizuka, and Aurora mustered all their speed and climbed down the stairs in less than one minute.
When they arrived at the public hall of the Karaoke Bar, they didn't hesitate before heading toward the exit.
The hall was filled with people drinking and watching someone singing on the karaoke machine, but Theo and the girls used all of their dexterity to avoid the people in their way as they ran fastly.
They were so fast that before the other clients and the bar staff could understand what was happening, they had already exited the building.
They didn't even manage to see who passed through the place.
"What was that?"
"They were so fast?"
"Are they acrobats or something?"
"..."
Everyone exploded in conversations about what happened, but Theo and the girls didn't care about it.
As soon as they exited the building they looked around the streets nearby.
The Karaoke Bar was located in an upbeat neighborhood filled with bars and nightclubs, so even though it was late in the night the streets were still crowded with people coming and going to enjoy their night.
"They can't be that far, look for a group of men carrying an unconscious girl," Theo said with a firm voice as he looked through the crowd with hawk eyes.
The girls nodded and also perused through the crowd.
It may seem that a long time has passed since Theo received Sylph's message until they arrived outside the building, but the time they took to arrive since the message was less than 2 minutes. And Sylph said that they would leave the building in less than 2 minutes. This meant that they were nearby.
The four of them each looked in a different direction, and after a few seconds, they heard Aurora's gasp.
"I think I saw I group of men entering that alley!" Aurora exclaimed as she pointed at an alley that was around 30 meters from the Karaoke Bar.
"Come on!" Theo didn't hesitate before leading them toward the alley.
In just a few seconds they arrived near the alley.
"Let me see if they are inside." Theo said in a low voice as he signaled them to stop behind him.
The three girls nodded and waited with serious faces.
Theo moved his head a bit and sneakily observed the alley.
When he did that, he didn't see anyone inside the alley. But he also noticed that the alley was a way to another street. And on that street, he saw a group of males carrying an unconscious girl.
"Come on. I saw them. They entered another street. We can't lose sight of them." Theo said before running inside the alley.
The girls didn't even hesitate before following Theo inside the alley as well.
As they ran inside the alley, they also manage to see the group, and they also managed to see Gwen's unconscious body being carried by them.
Their bodies seethed in fury when they saw that, they didn't have to be a seer to know what they planned to do with her.
They would never allow it!
When they ran into the streets, Theo slowed down his pace until he was 10 meters behind them.
"Let's observe them to see if they are armed." Theo whispered to the girls before silently following the group.
The girls wanted to jump into the fray and beat the hell out of these bastards, but they also knew that Theo was right. They might be masters in martial arts, but they couldn't win against a gun.
Therefore, they followed Theo's example and followed the group with silent steps as their eyes observed every detail about them.
Every physical characteristic of the seven men was noted down.
Their height, their weight, their clothes, their most used hand, if they used glass or not, if they had any injuries, and any other characteristic that may help them during the fight.
But most of all, they observed their hips and ankles for guns or knives.
When someone was warmed, they usually walked differently as the gun had a weight.
Even when someone walked with a light knife, it was still possible to see some clues that they had knives on them.
After a minute of following and observing the group, Theo whispered to the girls, "I think the bald one is armed. There's a distinct bulge on the back part of his pants."
"I also deduce that at least half of them are carrying knives." Shizuka added with a whisper.
Aurora was too inexperienced, so she didn't notice as many details as the others. But Ayia's serious face showed that she also noticed the same thing as Theo and Shizuka.
"Damn it!" Ayia cursed in a low voice.
If they only had knives on them, they would be able to overpower them, but a gun changed the scenario.
A gun could threaten them from afar and take them down one by one.
They tried to brainstorm an idea to save Gwen when they noticed the group entering a third-rate hotel at the side of the road.
They narrowed their eyes when they saw that.
"I have an idea." Theo whispered as his eyes shone with a dangerous light.
The girls perked up when they heard that, they trusted Theo with their lives. So, if he had a plan, they would follow it!
They didn't have much time before something happened to Gwen, so Theo explained the plan in under one minute before they sprang into action.
Theo and the girls noticed that this hotel might be the home base of these criminals, so they couldn't just barge into it.
That's why Theo devised the perfect way to blend in.
Theo entered the place holding Ayia's hips with his left arm and Shizuka's hips with his right arm.
The three of them acted like they were drunk and flirting as they didn't even notice the other people in the hotel entrance hall.
They immediately headed to the elevator while acting flirty and drunk the whole time.
Their disguise was spot on as the hotel employees and security guards didn't even question as they imagined that one of their guests got lucky with the two babes.
The three of them noticed where the elevator went for the last trip before selecting the same floor.
As soon as the elevator doors closed, Theo let Ayia and Shizuka go.
They cut out their act immediately and became serious.
"Quicker, quicker!" Ayia muttered as the elevator climbed the floors.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, they exited it and saw an empty hotel corridor.
"Which room are they in?" Ayia asked in worry.
It seemed they miscalculated, they didn't know which room they were in!
But at that moment, Theo said, "Wait a sec."
He picked up his phone and looked at the message that Sylph had just sent him.
"Room 515." He said simply.
The two girls didn't even question how he could know something like that, their only worry was Gwen!
Would they be able to save her in time?
