This new discovery changes everything. We had a mole in our midst. This meant that we were out in the open. We were exposed to our enemies.
We may have defeated Excalibur but we were still at a high risk because now we don't have a clear knowledge of who our real enemies are. We were in an open range danger.
After the interrogation, Nico ordered a round table meeting with the crème de la crème of the gang. Oddly, I was also invited to the round table meeting.
"what if this dork doing here? " Edgar spoke up immediately he saw me entering the room.
"this dork was partly responsible for saving your ass " Harry butted in.
"I wasn't talking to you, jeez " he surrendered and went back to minding his business.
Harry moved a bit, leaving space for me to sit beside him. I sat down and looked round the room at the faces of the people

The entire week was spent on series of investigations. The guys spent nights at the warehouse while I was left to continue with operations at the other warehouse.I had wanted in on the fun as well but working at the warehouse would also be as much fun since I would be doing my own private investigation here.Over the span of the week, two of our other warehouses have been attacked and this had led us to believe that the mole already knew our plan and knew that we were probably getting closer to catching him.I was to make an early morning delivery to one of our clients tomorrow, so I decided to spend the night at the warehouse to oversee the packaging. It was better than going home anyways, since I would be all alone.The guys barely stayed home these days as they are busy with catching the mole and dealing with the recent attacks."hey " I looked up and saw Jao coming towa

I looked up and froze. I froze because they were staring at me like I grew horns overnight."w-what? " I asked"you're smiling " Conny pointed out. I let down my head in embarrassment. I shouldn't be but I was, they just caught me smiling like an idiot.When I looked up, they were all smiling, and like idiots too, but why were they smiling?"why are you guys smiling?

Time to grow Kelvin
A few hours had passed and we were still at the base. It was too good to be true that we had caught the mole, after weeks of endless search without any trace of evidence. The relief I felt in the van vanished when I saw who the mole was. KelvinI may not be close with Kelvin but we'd had a few conversations together and he seemed like a cool person. Plus, he was a huge fan of Nico, he always looked up the man like a role model, so why would he betray someone he claims to look up to. After we had confirmed the identity of our mole, Nico had showed us the clues that led to his exposure for us to study closely. They were all pretty plain and looked staged, but why hadn't we been able to find them all these weeks we've been searching.Kelvin was currently being interrogated in the torture room. I couldn't bear to stand and watch so that's why I left to go outside and get some air.<

With those last words of Nico, we left a shocked Laburnum with a lifeless Kelvin, then we all headed back to our base.We already found the person or persons behind the mask, but does that mean all these madness is coming to an end? I seriously hope it is.When we got back to the base, Nico called for a meeting."well, it's been one hell of a week... we finally caught our mole, who sadly passed away this morning...." he began as everyone sat in their seats, somber."but the good news is, we finally know who's behind all this...now we know where exactly we are supposed to strike..." there were nodding of heads to signify agreement."now, we're all going to go home for a long rest...we all deserve it after all the madness that's been going on... ""so, we take a break today and we're all going to gather here tomorrow to start our plan

"who's up for some yummy dessert?! " Julian called out from the kitchen."Ooh me! me! " Mike hopped on the couch. Sometimes it's really hard to believe he was Conny's older brother.

Three weeks later, everyone is slowly recovering from all the previous events and operations continued. I also resumed my work at the warehouse against Harry's protest.After the last attack where I was almost killed, Harry was against me doing the deliveries. Even Conny, Mike and Jeff agreed too but Nico was not having any of it. And since he was the boss, there was no going against him. Even though Harry sometimes threw tantrums, Nico still ignored him.I sat down in the storage room watching some workers prepare the weapons I was to deliver later in the afternoon. This was going to be my fifth delivery in the past three weeks.The first delivery was two days after the break, I was completely surprised that there was going to anyone who wanted to deal with La rinascita but I guess Nico really had some good connections with his clients. And to be honest, I was scared of going to make the delivery. I was scared

Last night was the first time I had ever seen Julian snap. He was always more of the calm and collected one amongst all of us. That led me thinking that whatever had made him snap like that, definitely wasn't good. And just like Nico had said, the production of the M-16 kicked off. Julian was still pissed off by the recklessness of Nico but there was only much he could do about it since he was just Nico's second in command. The client who goes by the name of Vermont, ordered for 500 pieces of M-16. If I was suspicious before as to why he needed a prototype weapon that hasn't completely been tested. I was now more suspicious that he ordered for that much. Don't get me wrong, him ordering that much ammunition was good business since he was paying a really hefty price. I was only questioning why he would want an ammunition that was still under examination.<
