Secret Admirer Chapter 20: The Big Bang and White Snakes Hunting

The pieces of the puzzle are starting to fall into place and Suoh could feel the knot of anxiety in his chest beginning to loosen. Still, something didn't feel right to him and he was loath to forgo his survival instincts in lieu of performing his duty. Something felt off to him, but he still went to the location Mrs. Morina had indicated as her brother's home, all he could do to counteract whatever was giving him this bad feeling was go there as prepared as he could and hope it all went well.

He would do his job and he would personally lead the team, for Asami… for Akihito.

Three unmarked bans left the location chosen to serve as a meeting point for the team being gathered. The team consisted of fifteen men plus Suoh and they were all quiet with the seriousness of the occasion. If they succeeded, Asami would be very pleased.

The advance team consisting of five men in civilian clothes moved slowly through the neighborhood, nothing seemed out of the ordinary as they made their way to their target location.

Once they cleared the first floor of the low-rent apartment complex and secured the way up to the second floor, the advance team signaled for the assault team to move in.

The team caught up and once more, the advance team moved on to secure the way to the third floor's fourth door, where one Tadame Mamoru was in residence since he became dependant on his sister.

Infrared scans indicated that the place was empty of human life. A manual drill was used to make a small hole into the door and a slender camera wire which connected to a small screen was slid through the hole, it revealed no traps around the door, so once it was deemed safe, the lock was picked and the advance team waited for the assault team to enter the apartment first. It was clear the man had not been here for quite some time and Suoh doubted he would be coming back; still, they would look into everything here and hope to get something useful. The place looked much like the one they had discovered earlier, save for more pictures of Akihito in various states of dress and undress adorning the walls.

A general feeling of disgust filled the private thoughts of the men in the team. Suoh saw things he could barely keep his stomach from revolting about.

"Let me do this for you." Feilong said, as he sat before Asami on the limo. He had gone along to Morina's house with the golden-eyed, man but had stayed waiting in the limo to receive a report from his men while Asami and Morina spoke.

"Morina wants them all dead."

"I will get it done, fast and clean." He pressed, "Let me do this for you, so you can concentrate your efforts on Tadame. At this point, securing Akihito's safety is your biggest concern; I will take care of Usue. Just focus your forces on Tadame and end his threat."

Asami thought about it for a couple seconds before seeing the wisdom in allowing Feilong to take Morina's request from his hands. Feilong was reliable and would come through for him. Asami agreed and gave Feilong the go-ahead to pursue Usue and his men and recover Morina's documents and money.

They managed to find a lead to Usue's possible location from one of Feilong's men working the streets for information combined from what little Mrs. Kobo was able to provide about possible hideouts. The man apparently had her on a need-to-know basis and it seems like she didn't need to know much… or he was planning on using her and throwing her away from the beginning.

When they entered the building, Feilong found Usue had already left, taking most of his men with him and in essence, the location they had arrived at was nothing, but a dummy to throw them off Usue's trail.

They killed everyone there, but found no new information, from them nor in the building, leading to the runaway right-hand.

After a very painful interrogation, Mrs. Kobo was handed to Jun. He looked down to the battered woman laying on the floor with the same regard one looks at a work you accidentally stepped on with brand new expensive shoes and which refused to come off your sole.

The kind of anger he felt at what Akihito had suffered in the tunnel and after effects of it because of this woman's actions was so great, he had no idea how to begin to work it out.

This woman was filth of the lowest caliber and a waste of space and air.

Not even worth the oxygen Akihito breathes.

How can one deal with this kind of person? What can you do to make sure they suffer to the very last of their breath in such a terrifying way that even their souls will feel the pain of their punishment? He had no clue, but maybe he will seek advice from a more experienced and knowledgeable source.

He left the woman in the interrogation room and went to search out Kirishima.

It turned out to be the best idea he'd had all day. Kirishima, ever the numbers cruncher, figured out a way to not only deal great pain, but also gain some money while at it. Mrs. Kobo's very literal pound of flesh would go towards paying some of the repairs of the disaster she caused at Asami's condo.

Using Feilong's contacts in human and organ trafficking, they soon had a 'butcher' ready to collect Mrs. Kobo's organs.

************This Section Is A Bit Graphic***********

They kept her awake during the procedure, sometimes even resorting to injecting her with adrenaline to wake her up when the pain had caused her to pass out.

The 'butcher' had her strapped to a surgical bed, her torso open as he extracted her organs from her body with careful hands. As the organs were taken out, she was connected to a machine to sustain her body and keep it alive longer in order to keep the organs still in the body as fresh as possible. The last to be removed was her heart after which she died; her eyes still open and wet, her cheeks tearstained and her mouth opened in a silent scream.

Jun thought it was only fair that selling her off in pieces would go towards paying the repairs.

****************Gore Ends Here**************

There was a giant smirk plastered on Jun's face as he left the room where the 'butcher' and his assistant had been taking Mrs. Kobo apart. Before she had been subjected to her punishment, right when she realized what her fate would be, she had tried to bargain with Jun with information in order to try to save herself.

Jun had secured the information and still allowed her to be punished. Now, he made his way to report his findings to Kirishima.

"Kirishima-sama, Usue has a gold watch with encrusted diamonds which used to belong to his father. His father gave to him when he retired from being Kobo's assistant and gave Usue the position. According to Mrs. Kobo, Usue didn't want to serve. He wanted to lead. His father was the only person who ever said he could rise to the top if he worked hard and as such, Usue loved and respected him greatly. He carries the watch wherever he goes. Mrs. Kobo confessed she drugged him with sleeping meds once when she thought he was cheating on her because she wanted to make sure she had him in her grasp and placed a tracking device on the watch that he doesn't know about. The code to the tracking program is in the back of a gold bracelet which I recovered from her wrist and the program is in a computer hidden in her private rooms at the Kobo estate."

Kirishima almost felt like Christmas had come early and in less than a minute, he was calling men to have the computer collected.

At the same time, Suoh's team was already entering the stalker's small apartment.

It was a careful and slow process as they moved quietly through the place, searching for traps and information that might lead to the man's current whereabouts. Pictures were taken of the place's arrangement in order to have analyst provide a psychological profile of the stalker and anything which could be remotely considered as evidence of anything was also gathered. There was a team of behavioral analyst on stand-by awaiting the information recovered.

One of the men gathering physical evidence from around the bedroom, stood still as he considered whether or not to take the air out of the sex doll on the bed before bagging it for processing. He decided that it would be best to collect the doll as it was instead of chancing his tampering to ruining some prints or such.

The man walked towards the bed where the doll rested and his hand stretched to lift it. Having seen the doll from the previous location he thought nothing as he pulled it off the bed by one of its arms.

Suoh saw the wire first.

It was connected to the back of the doll somewhere in the middle of its back and lead into a small hole going through the bed. The wire was thin and barely visible, but the light from the window hit it just right that it gleamed in the sunlight catching the chief of operation's attention. His mind worked through the likely meaning and in fractions of a second, Suoh knew there was a bomb inside the mattress and the man pulling at the doll had just engaged it.

"RUN!" Suoh yelled at the men in the apartment, only the ones near the door made it out in time to prevent injury. Only three of them.

The man who had engaged the bomb took the brunt of it as he threw himself on the bed to try to protect Suoh using his own body as a shield for the blast.

It was not enough.

The blast was significant enough that it destroyed the place taking down most of Asami's men.

Outside, glass rained down from the apartment windows which had been destroyed by the force of the explosion.

Suoh had flown out the window along with the glass due to the blast and now lay broken and bleeding on the ground outside the building. There were large pieces of glass protruding of his body in several places and he was coughing up blood before falling unconscious.
