The 24-hour deadline had passed, with no movement and no abnormality.
If it had been up to Gao Guang, he would have left much earlier, but Leaf insisted on waiting the full 24 hours, not a minute less.
In the end, Leaf really did watch the clock, and only after a full 24 hours had passed did he agree to leave London with Gao Guang.
Now Gao Guang had two destinations to choose from, Georgia or Poland, with his main goal being to take over the arms belonging to Pavel. However, the people from King's Defense were deployed in Georgia, yet Gao Guang felt maybe handling Zoge would be more appropriate.
As per the agreement, after taking out Pavel, Zoge was to help Gao Guang get his hands on the arms in Georgia. Now that Pavel was arrested, it was Zoge's turn to fulfill his promise.
It was better to receive peacefully rather than having to fight for it.
