Mercenary I am the king

Chapter 564 The oriole is behind
In the city of Hoziaka, a truck stopped in front of a secluded warehouse on the outskirts of the city.

After getting out of the car, the driver looked around, then walked to the door and knocked twice.

The rolling door of the warehouse slowly rose up, and a man walked out, his hands on his waist, standing vigilantly at the door.

The driver took this opportunity to get back into the car and slowly drove it into the warehouse.

Soon, the guards returned to the warehouse, the shutters slowly lowered, and everything returned to calm.

About three minutes later, a black Toyota came from the north.

Gabriel sat in the passenger seat, his eyes shifting between his PDA and the road ahead.

"The source of the signal is nearby."

He turned to look at Arthur who was driving and reminded him: "Keep driving normally and don't stop nearby."

The driver, Arthur, nodded and said, "Okay."

He kept up his speed while Gabriel looked around through the window.

Soon, after judging the approximate direction of the signal source, his eyes fell on the wall of the old warehouse.

"It's probably over there."

Arthur turned and looked towards the warehouse.

It was a messy warehouse area. It looked like it had been a factory or something like that. There were ten one- or two-story buildings and warehouses.

But it looks deserted, and the grass inside is taller than people.

"Are you sure it's that building?"

Arthur didn't see the clue, so he asked curiously.

"This thing isn't that accurate. It's probably that warehouse." Gabriel pointed forward and said, "Keep going."

After saying that, he looked around, and finally his eyes fell on a six-story building about three hundred meters away.

It was a commercial building and looked like it was still in use.

"Go take a look at that building."

He said as he put away his PDA.

Finding a high point for surveillance purposes is what he needs to do now.

This surveillance mission was arranged by the principal Song Heping himself. For Gabriel, it was the best opportunity to show his skills.

Gabriel is an orphan. He is Brazilian and grew up in the slums of Rio de Janeiro.

The slums in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil are very famous and can be said to be lawless places.

Most of the children born there grow up to join gangs, but of course there are exceptions.

For example, it is not impossible for a football star to emerge.

Such self-disciplined children are rare.

And Gabriel is one of them.

His drug addict father was separated from his mother when he was young and eventually died on the street. Gabriel was raised by his mother since he was young.

Perhaps because of an inexplicable concern about his father's death, his mother asked Gabriel to study hard since he was a child and not to have any contact with gang members.

Gabriel is a very hardworking person. He studied very hard when he was a child and dreamed of becoming a policeman when he grew up.

Unfortunately, his mother passed away due to illness from overwork when he was twelve years old, and the family suddenly lost its financial support.

Even in this situation, Gabriel continued to study while doing odd jobs. When he was eighteen years old, he took the recruitment exam for the local police station. Thanks to his clean background and excellent physical fitness, he was admitted.

After that, young Gabriel became a policeman in a district police station in Rio de Janeiro.

But before he could even get used to his police badge, he was kicked out of the police force because of an incident. The reason was that while on patrol, the old policeman who was responsible for taking care of him and whom Gabriel regarded as a father was shot and killed by drug dealers. Gabriel suddenly went berserk.

He returned to the police car, retrieved his submachine gun, and rushed into the slums, shooting all the dozen or so gang members who had killed the old policeman.

There is a price to pay for being impulsive.

Although all his colleagues admired his approach and were even more surprised at the boy's strong fighting ability, firstly, doing so violated the law, and secondly, the local gangs also spread the word that they would retaliate against him.

When Gabriel was being escorted to the detention center, a police officer opened his handcuffs at the sheriff's suggestion, then used the excuse of going to the bathroom and deliberately left the car door open.

Gabriel escaped.

After leaving Brazil, he smuggled into Colombia, then went to Venezuela, and was finally accidentally spotted by the Gray Wolves and recruited into the school to join the first company of the Special Operations Battalion.

Currently, Venezuela's Falcon School only has one special operations platoon, although the goal is to establish a battalion, which is also a future plan.

The first platoon was composed of three special operations teams. Arthur was the captain of the first team, and Gabriel was the platoon leader of the Falcon Company because his tactical skills were the highest among all the team members.

The Special Operations Battalion appears to be stationed in a school, but in fact it is affiliated with the Overseas Operations Department of the "Musician" Defense Company and is considered a formal employee of the company.

These people have a guaranteed salary of $3000 a month, but once deployed, they will be paid very generous subsidies based on the difficulty of the mission.

For example, this time during the deployment to Mexico, the daily deployment cost is US$300 per person, and after completing the mission, there is a one-time reward of US$2 per person.

Not only that, the company also buys insurance for everyone. In the event of an accident or disability, there will be not only a pension from the company, but also compensation from the insurance company.

Such generous treatment immediately gave Gabriel a strong sense of belonging.

After escaping from Brazil, Gabriel had not had a good life in the past two years, doing odd jobs everywhere. He came to Venezuela because he heard that the economy here was good and the wages were high, so he came here to look for opportunities. Finally, he became one of the local construction workers building the Falcon School. Only then was he discovered by the Gray Wolf and pulled into the special operations battalion.

The reason why he wanted to perform well was because Gabriel heard from Gray Wolf that the company wanted to expand this special forces into the size of a battalion.

In other words, as one of the first to join, if Gabriel performs well, he has a good chance of becoming a battalion commander in the future.

He is a man with goals and ideals. Once he sets a goal, he will pursue it without hesitation.

Therefore, this operation in Mexico will be his stage. Whether he can become a battalion commander in the future depends on how well he performs in front of his boss Song Heping.

His mission was to track Lascano.

After getting the target information and reading it, Gabriel knew that this was a difficult opponent to deal with.

Tracking a special forces member is not an easy task. If you are not careful, you will fall into an abyss and die.

That's why he was so cautious and didn't dare to stay here for too long, fearing that there might be secret guards around.

Gabriel's previous police experience and the various brutal trainings he received in the Falcon School made him make a very wise choice. He stayed away from here and used technical means to monitor this abandoned factory area to determine where Lascano and others were hiding.

No matter how a living person hides, there is one thing that cannot be changed: they need to eat and drink, so they have to go out shopping.

As long as someone comes out, investigative methods can be used.

At this time, there was a complete set of reconnaissance equipment used by scouts in the car, all of which were purchased and equipped to them by the school.

These include satellite phones, multi-functional optical reconnaissance devices, night vision equipment, high-end cameras, and even a set of sonic detectors and acoustic vibration sensing equipment that can conduct long-distance monitoring.

The price of this set of equipment alone is over hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is not inferior to the special forces of developed countries.

The boss is so generous!

This is the evaluation of Song Heping by all the players in the first row.

The entire platoon is mobilized for this operation, it seems that there will be a big move.

An hour later, Gabriel, dressed like a reporter and with an expensive Nikon camera hanging around his neck, walked into the six-story commercial and residential building with ease.

After chatting with the young lady at the front desk and bragging that he was an animal photographer, he began to inquire whether there were any rooms for rent in the building.

"Of course."

The sweet-faced Mexican receptionist was very happy to provide information to the handsome young man with slightly curly hair.

"This place was originally divided into many offices specifically for rent. Business was good in the past. This is an industrial area, but unfortunately, many factories have moved away in the past two years to the north. It's really a headache for our boss. If you're willing to rent it, of course it's no problem!"

"Are there any rooms on the sixth floor facing east?" Gabriel explained after stating his request, "I see there seems to be a lake to the east. When I get up in the morning, I can point my camera out the window and see if I can capture some giant falcons."

"This one……"

The young lady frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, her eyes lit up.

"Yes, there's a studio that was just vacated not long ago. It's in the southeast corner, on the sixth floor. You can see the lake over there."

In fact, the lake is just behind the target warehouse. Gabriel actually has a meaning. If you can see the lake, you can see the warehouse area.

"Can you tell your boss I want to see that room?"

"No problem at all."

The young lady quickly picked up the phone and called her boss.

After some communication, the young lady put down the phone.

"No problem. Our boss said if you want to rent it, we can offer a discount. Pay one month's deposit and one month's rent. After that, the rent will be collected on the 10th of every month. The rent is $600 per month."

"No problem, but can you give me a receipt? I work for a magazine and can be reimbursed."

Gabriel didn't even need to ask for permission for this small amount of money.

The operation is funded and the expenses are paid on a reimbursement basis.

"Of course, no problem!" Seeing Gabriel's straightforwardness, the young lady smiled brightly. "Shall I take you upstairs to see the room now?"

"OK!"

Five minutes later, the lady at the front desk opened the room with a key.

Gabriel went in and took a look around. He found that although there were no office desks or chairs here, there was still an old sofa that had not been moved away.

All I have to do is bring two sleeping bags and two folding beds and observe here for a long time.

Coming to the window, he looked towards the warehouse.

There is no obstruction to the view and the vision is excellent.

"I am very satisfied!"

He turned to the receptionist and said, "I can pay the rent now and move in to work."

"You're most welcome!" the receptionist said, "Please wait here for a moment. I'll go downstairs to get the receipt and come up to issue the bill for you!"

After saying that, she walked away with her hips twisted.

After he left, Gabriel picked up the phone and called Song Heping.

"Boss, we found them and have rented a house nearby to start surveillance."

Song Heping's voice came from the other side.

"Where are they hiding?"

"In Hoziaka, in an abandoned industrial area."

"Hoziaka?" Song Heping sneered on the other end of the phone: "This Lascano really has some courage."

Finally, he reminded: "Remember, be very careful. These people are members of the special forces. They have received counter-reconnaissance training and are not much inferior to you."

"Understood, boss. I promise I'll be careful!"

　Asking for a monthly ticket!
