Leo stood on the sidewalk, gazing at the old, dilapidated factory in front of him. A damaged chimney emitted strange smoke, carrying an unbearable odor of burning plastic mixed with the putrid stench of acid water. The pungent smell made Leo cough involuntarily, his brow furrowed with determination.
The exterior of the factory was in a state of disrepair, with peeling bricks revealing years of weathering. The old chimney seemed like a relic on the verge of collapse, ready to crumble at any moment. But to Leo, the factory was more than just a decrepit building; it represented an important mission and a chance for self-redemption.
Leo took a deep breath, trying to ignore the nauseating smell. His gaze was firm as he walked steadily towards the entrance of the factory. With each step, he could feel the concentration of chemicals in the air increasing, the pungent odor almost overwhelming his senses.
However, Leo had only one thought in his mind: to complete the mission. This was not only a test of his own abilities, but also an opportunity to pay tribute to the past. Even though the road ahead was filled with unknowns and dangers, Leo was prepared to face the challenge. His eyes sparkled with determination as he confidently crossed the threshold of the factory, entering this world full of shadows and secrets.
Leo approached the factory gate, and his attention was immediately drawn to the scene inside. He saw a group of thugs gathered there, wearing gas masks and goggles, appearing both dangerous and eerie. The masks concealed their expressions, but through their indifferent appearance, Leo could sense their vigilance and rudeness.
Two of the thugs were clearly responsible for guarding. They casually leaned against the nearby wall, seemingly not taking their job seriously. They were hunched over their phones, seemingly completely engrossed in the content on the screen, oblivious to their surroundings. This gave Leo an opportunity to sneak in.
The scene inside the factory is not clear. The dim light and the steam-filled air make it difficult for Leo to see the details inside. But he can vaguely sense the dangerous atmosphere inside the factory. This is clearly not a normal place.
Leo knows he must be careful. Any careless movement could attract the guard's attention and put him in danger. He temporarily stops, carefully observing the guard at the door and the activity inside the factory, trying to find a safe way in. At this critical moment, every decision he makes is crucial.
Leo, after briefly observing the entrance, decided not to enter through the main gate. After all, he was unarmed, and even if he could successfully subdue the two guards at the entrance, he knew nothing about the situation inside. Rushing in would be like seeking death. With a calm judgment, he knew he had to find a safer and more concealed way to approach the target.
Leo silently retreated, his movements light and agile to ensure he wouldn't attract the guards' attention. He circled around to the side of the factory, where the shadows and dilapidated structure provided cover. The side of the factory looked even older, with wild grass growing in the cracks of the walls, broken windows, and an air of abandonment and desolation.
Leo scrutinized the surroundings, searching for possible entry points. His gaze shifted between a half-open window and a small loosened opening in the metal sheet. These details might seem insignificant to the average person, but for Leo, they were the key to entering the factory and completing the mission.
He took a deep breath, steadying his emotions, and then approached the half-open window with agility. With each step, he carefully controlled his breathing and pace to avoid making any noise. Leo knew this was a dangerous operation, but he also understood that only by staying calm and cautious could he survive this perilous mission.
Just as Leo was about to approach the half-open window, suddenly, the window was rudely pushed open. Two thugs holding cigarettes hurriedly took off their gas masks while walking out. This sudden change made Leo's heart tighten, and he quickly reacted by lying flat on the ground. The scattered weeds and a pile of debris around him provided the cover he urgently needed.
Hiding among the grass and debris, Leo held his breath and observed the movements of the two thugs. They seemed to be here to smoke, ignoring the desolation and dilapidation of the surroundings. After finally removing the suffocating gas masks, they eagerly lit their cigarettes, took a deep drag, seemingly enjoying this rare moment of liberation.
Leo hid in the dark, secretly planning in his heart. He knew that these two thugs might be personnel from inside the factory, temporarily leaving their posts. This gave him a good opportunity to sneak in. However, he also knew that he had to wait for these two thugs to return to the factory before he could safely continue his operation.
The two thugs leaned against the window, seemingly treating this place as a temporary shelter. Smoke swirled around them, forming a vague silhouette. After taking a big puff of smoke, one of the thugs couldn't help but complain, "Damn! The boss really messed up this time, taking such a big order for no reason. Now we're working overtime every day."
Another thug responded irritably, "Can you stop making noise? Do you know when was the last time I rested? Five o'clock last night! Damn, this... violates the labor law, right?" The previous thug seemed impatient with his companion's ignorance, exhaling a puff of smoke and sarcastically replying, "Labor law, you idiot." His tone was filled with mockery towards his companion and resignation towards the situation.
Their conversation struck a chord with Leo. The complaints of these two guards not only revealed the situation inside the factory, but also indirectly reflected the scale and complexity of this mission. It sounded like the activities inside the factory were related to some kind of secret trade, and it was not small in scale.
Leo carefully noted down this information in secret. He knew that these details might come in handy during the mission. At the same time, he was aware that the risks of this mission might far exceed his initial expectations.
Two thugs were still complaining, expressing their dissatisfaction with their work and their boss's decisions. Leo took this opportunity to quietly adjust his position, preparing to find another opportunity to infiltrate. His eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, searching for a path to enter the factory without being noticed. At this critical moment, every detail could be the key to success or failure.
