You head over to the main desk where a woman was typing on a computer and answering calls. "Thank you, have a good day." she replies to a caller as she hangs up and then turns towards you. "Hello sir, thank you for being patient. How may I assist you today?" You give her a smile and compliment her hair as you tell her about your friends flight arriving soon. "Oh yes, a group of gentlemen in suits and sunglasses asked about that flight too. I believe it docked just a minute or so ago." she replies as you turn towards the terminal and whisper a curse under your breath.
"Thanks, my friends have lots of admirers." you reply quickly as you immediately head off to find the girl before any hired goons do. You couldn't run or do anything to raise suspicion, you just had to hope that you could find her before any rival triads or thugs do. As you approach the main gate you notice a group of men in suits arguing over which way they should go to find the correct arriving flight. "I think my luck just changed for the better." you whisper as you head over to greet them.
"Excuse me, gents. I overheard you debating over the arrival of a flight." you say casually as you give them a friendly smile and wave as you approach. "I believe the flight you are looking for arrives on the other side of the main lobby near the northeastern gate. Better hurry, it docks in just a few minutes." The men take turns looking at each before one of them mutters a quick word of thanks as they rush off towards the direction you just came from. Looks like they bought your lie.
You quickly move past a crowd of people heading for the lobby and began scanning the passengers for anyone who liked like they could be from the Golden Ocean triad. "Excuse me, sir... are you with the SGY by any chance?" comes a feminine voice from behind you. You quickly turn around to see a young woman in a stylish qipao standing behind you next to two men in casual suits. "Are you with the GOT?" you reply as you take a quick look around to make sure no one was listening in on you.
The young woman nods as she goes to introduce herself but you quickly grab her hand and instruct her to follow you. "Wait, where are we going?" she asks in a surprised and nervous tone as you try to blend in with the exiting crowd of people leaving the airport. "Sorry, but not now. I'll explain once we get out of here, but you're in grave danger." you whisper as you text Sai to pull the limo around to the front exit and be ready to go in one minute.
"Are you sure about this?" one of the bodyguards asks as you escort the girl past a group of businessmen heading towards a coffee shop. "Yes, I'm Micheal. I'm one of your new business partners. Look, we can talk once we get out of here, for now you'll need to just trust me." you reply as you check your phone. Sai sent a confirmation text back and would meet you outside. "Good, we're almost there." you think to yourself as you renter the front lobby.
Just as you are about to head outside the goons from before spot you and begin running through the crowd to catch up. "Hey, he's got the girl! Stop him!" one yells as he draws a knife and begins closing the distance between you. Better think of something quick...
