Vol 10 Chapter 24.1: The Intricate Contrast (part 1)Fates intertwined between human beings.
It seemed like a mischief now.
…
The root of the chaos came from death. Although death wasn’t a stranger in this country, it was far away from the door of the rich and wealthy.
They were well protected, and even the law served them. Convenience, comfort, privilege… The rich and wealthy were in control with many things, but they never thought that one day, death would come so close.
The person who shed crimson blood on his chest should be a well-known conductor. He might be treated like a national treasure in some ordinary country. Yet, such a dazzling life faded away.
The conductor’s life ended on the stage abruptly at the crescendo of the orchestra. He was truly buried in the great symphony.
But obviously, the audience wouldn’t be praising the deeds of this famous conductor at the moment. They were more concerned about their safety at the scene.
They were kidnapped.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, what were the police officers who arrived early before the concert and the police chief named “The Fat Pig” doing?
This guy who can only consume the country’s wealth to the maximum really has reached the point where he is useless and can be disposed. An old man sitting in the VIP room at the top cast a stern gaze at the “Greedy Fat Pig” accompanying him.
Bureau Chief Jose felt that he was really wronged. To ensure the safety of this place, he had mobilized manpower since the morning. Every guest who entered the theater needed to go through several checks on their identity before they could enter. As for the employees in the theater, everyone had been thoroughly investigated. How did the culprits get in?
Worse still, the culprits brought weapons in. They shot and killed a conductor in the full view of the public’s eye in this kind of international diplomatic activity.
Diplomatic activities were held under various names throughout the year— The key was that even this kind of formal diplomatic activities was essentially state-to-state diplomacy.
Bureau Chief Jose never thought of advancing his career further and approached the center of power in this country. He was satisfied with staying firmly in his position, waiting for his retirement, and then becoming a rich man in a Western country.
However, after this incident, he would probably be labeled “incompetent” before the nickname “Greedy Fat Pig.”
“Mr. Senate President, please trust me! I will ensure your safety and take control of the situation as soon as possible!” Jose looked at the angry old man in horror. This old man could let him step down from his position with just one sentence!
“I hope so, Jose.” The senate president said solemnly, “After all, I don’t want to lose a colleague.”
Jose wiped his sweat and nodded in a panic, “Don’t worry. To ensure the order of the venue, I have dispatched the most elite subordinates. Now they must have realized the situation at the scene. I believe they will be able to seize this group of lawless criminals very soon.”
The Senate President snorted coldly. Compared to such a promise, he prefered to see substantial results. Perhaps Bureau Chief Jose’s prayers had played a role. In the next instant, the VIP room door was opened.
Several well-equipped men in police uniforms walked in quickly.
Jose secretly praised his God. These guys are competent. As soon as I finish speaking, they appear immediately! That should put out some of the Senate President’s anger, right?
The”Greedy Fat Pig” had already planned to compliment those ‘elites’ appearing before him and the senate president after their return.
“Mr. Senate President, you see, they are the UPP unit. For safety’s sake, I mobilized a small group of people over here this morning!” Jose put on a sullen face.
The senate president obviously knew about the UPP units. A few years ago, the country had cleaned up the forces in many slums and contained the criminals in it to ensure the hosting of the World Games went safely. The unit that completed this great operation was the UPP unit.
Compared to Jose’s pride, the senate president nodded calmly. He looked at Jose and said, “Mr. Jose, I hope you can take control of the scene as soon as possible. I don’t want to see any loss of life again. You know, many of the guests are the allies of our country.”
“Definitely!” Jose nodded quickly, then moved his body weighing hundreds of pounds. He came to these armed men, and said with a rough tone, “How many of you have come in? Have you found out the culprits’ locations? Who is their boss? Get him to see me as soon as possible!”
“Okay, he will come to see you soon.” The leading man showed white teeth and looked at Jose with a smile. “After all, it would be too time costly to let a fat pig like you walk over.”
“En, is he coming right away? Great…” Jose nodded in satisfaction, but his face suddenly froze. What did he hear? How dare this guy call him a fat pig?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut before Jose vented his anger, he was kicked violently in his abdomen, as if attempting to kill him. Jose fell to the ground and screamed, “You… How dare you? Have you lost your mind?”
“It seems that you haven’t figured out the situation yet.” The leading man sneered, then took out his pistol and pointed at Jose, “I really don’t understand how an idiot like you takes the position of where you are now.”
“You… You are the kidnapping culprits!” Jose was shocked at this time. His UPP units had long been swapped away. He finally understood how the criminals came in easily!
Even if you make your defenses airtight, you can’t resist the harm coms internally. From the beginning, the criminals had mixed into his manpower!
The pistol touched Jose’s forehead.
The “Greedy Fat Pig” raised his hands in horror at this time, begging for mercy, “Don’t kill me, please. I’m nobody.”
“I only know that you’re a worthy hostage.” The man armed with a pistol snorted coldly, “But, I wonder if your fat can stop my bullet and save your life. I really want to find out!”
“Help me…” Jose looked at the senate president subconsciously, begging.
The old man looked at Jose as if he looked at a dead man. He had weathered the storm and sat on one of the thrones of the power centering this country.
The Senate Elder said indifferently, “Killing him brings no benefit to you. Regardless of your origins, I don’t want to see more casualties tonight. Since you said this is a kidnap, what are your conditions?”
“I don’t have many conditions, only two.”
Suddenly, behind several macho men in UPP uniforms, a voice came. Then, several macho men stepped aside, only to see a man who was also wearing a uniform walked in.
