Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

Knock Knock.

James’s back straightened a little when the knock on the door sounded.

Minister Durwyn, with a light in his eyes, asked into the intercom, “Is that Angela and the others coming up?”

“Yes.”

Receiving a definite answer, Minister Durwyn gave his man a wink and told him to open the door.

The handlers nodded, cautiously, holding their guns in one hand and opening the door with the other.

James pursed his lips and prepared to get up, but his body left the sofa by two centimetres and he frowned, sitting back down again and just craning his head to look at the door.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

The door opened and three men walked in with a woman. The three men were dressed in ordinary sportswear, but it was easy to tell from their groomed air that they were soldiers.

And the woman in their midst, wearing a tweed coat and with burns all over her hands and face, it was impossible to see what she originally looked like, only her dark eyes could be seen.

James’s eyes deepened a little, and there was a flash of suspicion on his face. He moved motionlessly, his buttocks just next to the edge of the sofa.

Minister Durwyn had placed people around him who he could trust, but the three men in front of him didn’t ring a bell.

But he was in a hurry to get the books now and didn’t think that much about it.

“I’m sorry Miss. Angela, for the shock.” Minister Durwyn said.

Angela sneered, “You …… have had me hijacked, is there any point in talking about this now?”

It was indeed Angela’s voice, and that strange feeling in James’s mind grew a little heavier, but the confusion on his face was only a flicker and did not go unnoticed.

“Mr. James, now that you have met Miss. Angela, it is time for the books to be given to my people?” Minister Durwyn said.

James looked at Angela, hesitated slightly and said, “Hmm. You arrange for a man to go to my cottage at Bamboo Estate and someone will give him the books.”

“Good.” Minister Durwyn said painfully, “Just wait, I’ll arrange for someone to get the books from Bamboo Estate and then you can take Miss. Angela and leave.”

James nodded his head and motioned for Angela to join him on the sofa.

He opened his mouth several times to ask her if the wound on her body hurt, only several times he opened his mouth, but no words came out. For some reason, he couldn’t open his mouth.

The rush hour traffic jam had passed and about half an hour later the man sent by Minister Durwyn called to say that the books had arrived and had been checked and were in order.

“Good.” Minister Durwyn hung up the phone and smiled meaningfully.

His smile made James look a little uncomfortable and he frowned slightly as he said, “You have the books in hand, so we’ll leave you to it.”

He didn’t wait for a reply from Minister Durwyn either, standing up and reaching for Angela.

But as it was almost touching her, the hand retracted, “Go.”

“Mmm.” Angela nodded, glanced back timidly at Minister Durwyn and followed him obediently.

When they were out the door, Minister Durwyn gestured for his men to close the door, then called the man who had the ledger, “Answer the ledger immediately.”

“…… okay.” The man paused for a moment before answering, a few imperceptible tremors in his voice.

Minister Durwyn felt an indescribable sense of dissonance, “Why do you sound so breathy?”

“Just got the books from James’ subordinates, there were three of them over there and I was worried they’d backtrack on a whim and climb all the way downstairs.” The other side said.

There is nothing wrong with this statement, and the sense of disconnection just now was only a flash of light.

Minister Durwyn put his suspicions aside for the moment and admonished, “OK, you destroy the books and then come back to …… you send me the video of the destruction of the books and then come back.”

The man he sent to get the account book was his confidant, but there was no guarantee that the other party did not have different intentions. If this man had blackmailed him with the books, he would have been in trouble.

“Hmm. The car is parked on the side of the road and it’s not convenient, so I’ll hang up and send you the video later.”

“Good.”

Minister Durwyn put his phone away, hooked the corner of his mouth and ordered his men, “James isn’t far out yet, get rid of him and Angela.”

He could not tolerate anyone climbing on top of him and making a fool of himself.

Hearing this, one of the men hesitated, “But James just said that if we kill him, Commander Evetts’ side will ……”

Minister Durwyn reached out to stop him and said grimly, “I didn’t do it, he didn’t die on me, Commander Evetts said I killed the man, so I did?”

He balked, and the man who had just made the suggestion lowered his head, not daring to speak.

“Go on, before they get too far away.” An enemy like James, who is as wise as a demon, should never be kept! Or else he will have to suffer later!

“Okay.”

A few of the men agreed and left two to accompany Minister Durwyn while the others went out.

Minister Durwyn sat on the sofa, smelling the blood in the air as if it were there, and then looking at some of his men as they left, always feeling that he had forgotten something, but suddenly unable to remember exactly what he had forgotten.

It was only when the two men standing behind him suddenly put their guns against his head that it suddenly occurred to him that none of the three men who had brought Angela back had been seen by him before.

His pupils crinkled and a cold sweat rose on his back, “come-” people.

“If Minister Durwyn wants to live, he’d better behave himself and cooperate with us.” One of them interrupted, smirking.

The people in the main bedroom, the second bedroom and the room opposite, who were observing the situation, saw the scene and felt bad, but by now it was too late for anything.

Minister Durwyn’s face flushed red and blue as he squeezed a few words out of his teeth, “There’s already a sniper rifle aimed at you, you better not be messing around!”

“Ouch, how scary!” The one who spoke up was the same one from before, “Then please tell the sniper gunner to pull back, or don’t blame my gun for not looking! ”

“You-”

“I’m gonna shoot, yo!”

Minister Durwyn was exasperated enough by the other man’s tone, but had to do as he was ordered, getting the snipers over to this side, and those men in the bedroom to the living room, and finally gritting his teeth and telling everyone to drop their weapons.

“Who are you two? What is the purpose of holding me hostage?” Minister Durwyn held his tongue, “If it’s for money, I can call you right now!”

The two men looked at each other and this time it was the other who spoke up, “One more charge of bribing a public officer.”

Hearing this, Minister Durwyn’s face instantly turned ashen, “You …… you are ……”

“It’s to get you.” The man who spoke had a gun in one hand and a phone in the other and dialed, “Three downstairs in plain sight, there may be more in the shadows, be careful. Five men have gone after Mr. James, send a few over to protect him.”

After waiting so long, it’s finally time to close the net!

–

Angela is all wounded and not fit to ride a motorbike, but there is nothing else to do in this situation.

“Bear with me for a while, someone will pick us up on the way.” James took off the black coat he was wearing and draped it over Angela.

It’s already waxing and waning and it can be cold on the road on a motorbike.
