The war beneath the stars

Fabio and Artur were silent, waiting. Mr. Reis finally turned, his voice cutting through the heavy air. "You boys have no idea what kind of man you're dealing with."

Mr. Reis walked over , lowering himself into it with deliberate slowness.

His gaze fell on Fabio, then Artur, before he spoke.

"For years, I was part of an international task force. My work wasn't just about chasing petty criminals or solving small-town murders. I hunted the masterminds, the ones who moved pieces in a game far larger than most people could imagine. Asahi Rei was one of them. A ghost who thrived in the shadows, untouchable, brilliant, and completely ruthless."

Artur's brow furrowed," I already knew what kind of person he is."

Mr. Reis replied, his voice heavy. "I studied him. He was a priority target for years,We could never catch him. He was always two steps ahead.

Every time we thought we had him cornered, he slipped away like smoke. He knew our playbook, our strategies, even the agents working the case. It was as if he was always watching us, predicting our every move."

Fabio clenched his fists. "And now he's at the center of all this madness".

Mr. Reis nodded grimly.

" When I retired, I thought I'd left his world behind. But now, seeing everything that's happening, it's clear he's still pulling the strings."

Artur leaned back, his mind racing. "Then why hasn't he been caught?"

Mr. Reis let out a bitter laugh. "Because he's always been one step ahead. But this time, it seems the world finally caught up to him. Asahi Rei is currently in Spain's most secure prison."

Artur leaned forward, his voice filled with urgency. "Do you have a plan?"

A shadow of a smile crossed Mr. Reis's face. "I do. The prison is designed to be impenetrable, but no system is flawless. During my time on the force, I studied its weaknesses. If we're going to confront Asahi, we'll need to break into that prison. It won't be easy, and it won't be safe, but it's the only way."

Fabio exchanged a glance with Artur, his determination evident. "Tell us the plan. "

Mr. Reis shook his head. "Not yet. There are too many variables, too many risks . I'll tell you what you need to know. For now, you need to prepare yourselves. This won't be like anything you have faced before. One mistake could Cost us everything. "
