Chapter 295 Duped
Following the address, Finnegan arrived at the hotel in Colstrax, and he also informed Doom Star and
Duncan to meet him there.
Dressed in casual clothes, Romona had been waiting here, originally intending to scold Finnegan a bit.
His call the day before, asking her to find someone, had felt almost like a command.
However, when she saw that Finnegan had brought Doom Star and Duncan along, she immediately
sensed something was amiss. “Finnegan, who exactly did you ask me to find?”
Since Doom Star and Duncan were there, it was clear that a battle was on the horizon.
Finnegan looked toward the three-story hotel. “The sniper that almost took me out.”
Upon hearing this, Romona widened her eyes in surprise. “What? Why didn’t you say so earlier? I only
brought two people with me!”
Saying this, she quickly pulled out her phone. “No, I need to get more people over here.”
Finnegan stopped her. “That guy is an expert in firearms and is formidable in close combat. Having
more people will not only alert him but also increase casualties. I can handle this with Doom Star and
Duncan! But I’ll need you to help me clear out the other people in the hotel first.”
That guy was cautious and unscrupulous, which could be troublesome if he decided to take hostages
at a critical moment.
Romona frowned. “Are you sure the three of you can handle it? Do you need me to call for
reinforcements?”
“I’m sure!”
“All right. But don’t blame me if the person runs away again.” Romona made a call to two colleagues
who were tailing the sniper, instructing them to liaise with the hotel owner and discreetly evacuate the
guests from the hotel.
In the following ten minutes or so, people started to trickle out of the hotel in small groups.
Romona’s two colleagues also left, casually draping their arms over the hotel owner’s shoulders as if
they were friends.
Seeing this, Romona knew that there was no one left in the hotel, and she began to walk toward it.
“Let’s go. The hotel is empty!”
Finnegan was taken aback for a moment, then stepped forward to hold her back. “You don’t have to go.
The three of us will do.”
Romona snorted. “When it’s crunch time, I’ll be there with a gun to back you up. Plus, if you guys stir
up trouble, it’s easier for me to handle the aftermath if I’m present.”
With that, she shook off Finnegan’s hand and walked away, not giving Finnegan a chance to stop her.
Left with no other choice, Finnegan could only give up and follow along, bringing Doom Star and
Duncan

with him.
Upon entering the hotel, Romona lowered her voice and said, “That person is in room 322 on the third
floor, facing the alley at the back. Be careful when you make your move later so he doesn’t escape
through the window!”
With a nod, Finnegan signaled to Doom Star and Duncan to follow. The four of them quietly made their
way to the third floor, heading straight for room 322.
Hearing a noise inside, Finnegan made a gesture.
With a tacit understanding, Duncan treaded lightly toward the door.
In the next moment, he fiercely kicked the door.
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open. Finnegan and Doom Star rushed in immediately, with
Romona, gun in hand, following close behind.
As a result, everyone was left dumbfounded.
Romona’s mouth gaped open, giving off an eerie vibe. Where’s the person?”
The room was completely empty.
The noise heard moments earlier was due to the shower in the bathroom being slightly turned on.
Finnegan’s gaze slightly hardened as he looked toward the open window, then turned his attention to
the neatly made bed. Could it be?
Upon thinking of something, Finnegan’s face drastically changed. He turned around and pushed
Romona, saying, “Quick! Go!”
No sooner had the words been shouted out than a thunderous boom and a burst of flames shot up into
the sky, instantly shattering the neatly arranged beds into pieces.
A powerful blast wave formed, creating a shockwave of astonishing strength. It caused a wall to
