The Bodyguard System

Booom!

A sudden explosion occurred in front of them, startling the people inside the car. Immediately, Christopher stepped on the brakes, forcing the car to stop.

Nobody had expected an explosion of such magnitude to suddenly occur. So, momentarily, several police cars collided with each other.

It became extremely chaotic on the mountainous road. Several police officers jumped out of their cars, to go and try and help those that had been injured.

At the same time, the car that was in front of them was the one that had exploded. Just by looking at it, one could easily tell that it was actually bombed.

Everyone was holding their guns, as they surveyed their surroundings. And, in the distance, they could see that the villa did not seem to be having any movements at all.

Jaden had already gotten out of the car. But still, he made sure to stay close to the car. Currently, this was the only thing that he could use to hide himself from the one that had attacked.

Just from this attack, Jaden could tell that what he had been thinking before was actually true. It was clear that the police were currently attacking without any sense at all. After all, with all the sirens on, it was clear that they had already notified the other party that they were coming over.

Additionally, considering that this operation had been planned for several days, it was not impossible for a person with the capability of owning such a villa to not get the information.

So, even though it was expected, Jaden had not expected that they were going to ambush them by blasting one of the police cars that was in the lead. This had immediately led to the police that had not been prepared for something like this to suddenly descend into chaos.

As for the person that was in charge of the mission, he was not that capable when it came to commanding the police. After all, even he himself was already panicking in this situation where he was supposed to be calm.

Jaden did not pay that much attention to the police around him. Instead, he was surveying his surroundings, while taking cover. He was trying to see where the attack had come from.

But after looking around for quite a while, he could not see anybody. It was clear that the person that had attacked only attacked, before hiding. And if that was not the case, then there was definitely a mine that was set up on the road, awaiting the car to come over.

After making sure that he could not see anybody around, Jaden began moving towards the direction where the car had exploded. Several police officers were already around the car that was currently burning.

They had helpless expressions on their faces. It was impossible for them to be able to put out the flames, considering that none of them could even dare to approach the car, as the scorching heat could be felt even from a distance.

The only thing that could be done for this car was to wait until the firefighters came over and put out the fire. It was only then that they could take out the remains of their comrades.

But there was one thing that Jaden noticed. These people were not that cautious at all. Despite having one of their cars destroyed, they were still acting recklessly.

Jaden looked around the car, but he could not find anything of any use to him. So, he looked towards the left of the mountainous road. There was something like a valley there, which was currently having dense vegetation.

Jaden could not tell the depth of the valley. Nonetheless, he went close to the car, as close as the heat could allow him, before bending directly to the ground. Then, from the same angle as the car, he tried looking towards the valley.

Immediately, he realized that even if he bent, someone could actually attack from below. The moment that he realized that, Jaden began observing the shrubs keenly.

And when he did that, he suddenly noticed something. This area, the shrubs, was definitely not somewhere that people were supposed to be. It was extremely rare for people to be there.

But right now, Jaden could tell that there had been some recent movements. Additionally, it was clearly not from a single person, but a large group of people.

The moment that he realized that, Jaden's expression changed. And as if to prove what he had come into conclusion, there was a whoosh sound that came from below.

Accompanied by the sound was something that was flying in their direction. Jaden immediately realized that this was a rocket from an RPG!

"Everyone! Get down!" Jaden shouted. At the same time, he tried to make sure to get as far as possible from the direction that the rocket was heading to.

BOOOM!

Jaden had just shouted when suddenly, another explosion occurred. Another car of the police officers was suddenly blasted. The people that were around the car were all blown away by the explosion.

Immediately after that, several screams could be heard from the people that were injured. Several had already died from the explosion, considering that other than just the power of the explosion, the moment that the car exploded, several metal parts rushed out, and cut several of them.

While others were injured, others were not as lucky as them, as they received injuries in vital areas. And with that, they were not able to survive, or others who are on their last breaths.

The area once again became chaotic. While others were trying to save their comrades that were on the ground asking for help, others had already found somewhere to hide.

Jaden on the other hand did not pay that much attention to the chaos that were happening behind him. Instead, he gazed towards the direction that the rocket had come from.

He understood that the maximum firing range of a rocket was about 700 m. But still, for a person to be able to effectively use it, they would have to be within the range of 300 m. But of course, for those that were not that much experienced in using this weapon would have to be even closer.

And true too his expectations, several meters away, he could see that the bushes were shaking. Immediately, he could tell that the one that had just launched the rocket was definitely there.

Jaden immediately removed the safety of his gun. Then, he gazed towards the direction, while still lying on the ground. He was observing keenly, and a little while later, he noticed a person.

According to Jaden's estimation, that person was about 200 m away. And it was clear that he was getting away. Jaden wanted to fire, but he remembered that he was currently having a pistol.

Without hesitation, he rolled down, and immediately disappeared into the bushes. He had to make sure that the enemy did not know where he was first, otherwise, they would keep on attacking from the dark, while he was in the light.

Angela on the other hand was quite lucky. She was not that far away from Jaden, considering that she was following Jaden when he was coming over. She wanted to ask him what he wanted to do, but she kept quiet all this while.

And when Jaden suddenly shouted that they should get down, she also did so without hesitation. And, even though she felt a lot of pain just looking at her comrades that were currently lying on the ground, either dead or injured, she noticed that Jaden had suddenly jumped down the valley.

Her eyes widened In surprise. She did not expect that Jaden was going to do something like that. Since the rocket was coming from this direction, it was clearly reckless for Jaden to head there.

They had to know where the enemy was first, before they could even start taking action. But now, Jaden had suddenly jumped towards the valley.

Angela hesitated for a moment, before she also suddenly jumped down. She had to make sure that Jaden was safe. She would not feel okay if Jaden ended up getting killed because of his reckless actions.

At end of it all, she was the one that had brought him over, even though she was paying for his services. She did not want him to get implicated, especially considering that she realized that there seemed to be some kind of connection between Jaden and Scarlet.

The moment that she jumped down the valley, she realized that it was deeper than she had expected. She was hit by several small tree branches, before she finally landed on the ground.

It was a good thing that she had a good physique, due to training occasionally. Otherwise, she would have definitely not been able to stand up after landing like that.

She began looking around, trying to find Jaden, but she could not see him. But a little while later, she suddenly noticed that there was some kind of movement a distance away.

She immediately became alert. She understood that it might be Jaden, but at the same time, it might be the enemy that had used the rocket propelled grenade to attack them.

So, she cautiously hid behind a bush. At the same time, she took out a pistol from her waist, before removing the safety. She had already dropped the AK-47 that she was having before when she was lying on the ground.

The bushes continued shaking, and a little while later, she suddenly noticed that there was a person that was coming over. That person was extremely cautious. He was having a mask that was covering his face, and was even wearing a bulletproof vest.

This was something that surprised Angela. After all, not just anybody could access the bulletproof vests. Even for them, they were only wearing them at this moment because of the risk that was associated with this mission. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to be able to wear them during the daily patrols.

Angela suddenly noticed that the person who had appeared was actually heading in her direction. Even though she realized that he had not seen her, she understood that he was definitely going to see her the moment that he got where she was. So, she got ready to shoot.
