Feng Xuan was definitely pumped with this new breakthrough in finding The Zookeeper. She could already see the light at the end of this dry and dreary tunnel. She could not help but smile all throughout breakfast while Wuming and Qing Lok bombarded Qing Chen with questions.
Qing Chen raised a hand to stop the train of questions that was coming for him. Thankfully, his brothers shut up and he would have a chance to tell them about the plan that was in his head.
"We are going to find blueprints of that building," said Qing Chen. "I don't care how we're going to do it, but we'll certainly will. Then we're going to study the structure, make sure that when we get there, there would be no other escape for The Zookeeper. We get one chance at this and we're not going to let this slip by. We're going to kill him.
The next thing we would do is invade that house. We cannot enter that house without an army. There would be too many people there and going in alone would be too dangerous. You surely won't live."
"Then?" Qing Lok asked.
"Then we're going to kill the people in there, leave The Zookeeper alive for questioning, then kill him too."
"That's the plan?"
"Well, we don't have a blueprint yet," Qing Chen said and took the last of his eggs. "How am I supposed to plan with nothing to work on? Hold your horses. We all want to finish this as soon as possible but that is not going to be as easy as we would think."
"Why?" Wuming asked.
"First of all, we are being watched by some of their men. I'm pretty sure that whenever we leave the house they would directly report to The Zookeeper. We have to get out of this city unnoticed then get on the plane and go to the country on where he was hiding. Next, we are going to transport a lot of people to come with us, also unnoticed. How are we going to do that?"
"Let's just kill the spies," Wuming said.
"Do you know who they are?"
"No," he shrugged.
"I know you're itching to kill someone but please don't go on a spree on innocent people."
"Well, how are you doing to get our people out of here?"
All the men that they have used so far with the search where the ones that were already overseas. Probably The Zookeeper knew about them but not enough that he would keep a close eye on all of them.
But they were going to need more than that.
"Don't you worry, I will be thinking about that once we get to know the terrain that we would be working on. Surely, it would be easier."
But it was not easier.

By the time that the couple got back in their house, they were almost about to go to sleep when there were insistent knocks on their bedroom door. Qing Chen opened it and came face-to-face with an assistant from the mafia who was out of breath and was clutching a folded piece of paper.
"News, boss," she said.
"Thanks," he answered, eyeing the shaven half of her head. Clown really had a taste when it comes to his assistants. "Wake up my brothers and tell them I'll meet them in the living room."
After his day at the office, he was looking forward to just being alone with Feng Xuan but all the sleepiness had been wiped out as he took the steps two at the time. He already called some people and they all came in while he was reading the note.
Feng Xuan had been in the bathroom and was wearing a thick robe with her hair tied with a towel on top of her head. Qing Lok was yawning and Wuming looked like he had just woken up.
Qing Chen snapped his fingers and the quiet entailed it. "Okay, here's what is says:
Sir, we have found the house. It's here in Africa in the middle of a dessert. Here are the coordinates. We are too far too see how it looks like. It is on isolated ground and nothing else could come near without alerting them. We'll stay here until we hear from you. Message us with the next orders."
The coordinates were immediately loaded up by a guy. There were three other people in the room and they were already working. They already got a satellite view and a program they loaded gave them a good guess on how the house was built.
In the next twenty minutes, they were already printing a 3D version of the house. The others were working on hacking into the government of the country to look for the blueprints. Qing Lok was already studying the first sketch with fingers clutching his chin, deep in thought. Wuming was already sharpening his knives. Feng Xuan was looking over at the beautiful and fascinating way of 3D printing. Qing Chen was looking around the model, trying to find something.
"Pros and cons?" she asked.
"Pros, there seems to be no other way out aside from the four walls of this estate. There couldn't be a tunnel of some sort under all this sand. Cons, they would know that we were coming and might try to make their escape at that point." Qing Chen pressed on his eyebrows with his fingertips. "The only way we could possibly go unnoticed was falling from the sky."
Feng Xuan's bit her cheek. "What do you mean fall down from the sky?"
"Skydiving?" he guessed. "But we would not be able to bring that much people with us and weapons would have to be kept to a minimum."
"I'd love to try that," Feng Xuan said.
Qing Chen smiled. "Maybe we will try." But he still looked troubled.
"How do you go unnoticed?"
"You don't," he answered. "We have to bring the whole parade."
