Chapter 644: Chapter 294: Flying Eagle Gun Store
The searchlight of the Black Hawk Helicopter swept over the motel’s balcony and roof, leaving members of Tad who were hiding in the corners completely exposed. Jimmy and the officers immediately fired upon them, while many guests trembled in fear, hiding in the corners of their rooms.
Rifles and projectiles created a symphony of gunfire at the motel, and the clash was over within minutes from the start of the exchange of fire.
Jimmy asked over the police frequency if Boketu had spotted any more surviving criminals. Observing from a higher vantage point, Boketu immediately responded, “No more criminals spotted, but they’re definitely hiding in the rooms, maybe even trying to take hostages.”
Jimmy quickly grabbed a megaphone and shouted inside, “Listen up, you bastards inside, drop your weapons and you live! As long as you don’t harm the hostages and come out compliantly, confessing and explaining your crimes, the court can give you a lighter sentence. If you insist on resisting, we’ll be forced to blow up the building!”
The Tad leader on the second floor saw arrogant Jimmy through the window, as well as the well-equipped officers and their lackeys loading RPGs with rockets.
“Boss! There’s a Black Hawk Helicopter above us, so many cops below, and they’ve got RPG rockets. We can’t possibly escape. If we don’t surrender, we’re dead for sure!” his henchmen said in despair.
“They wouldn’t dare blow up the building,” the Tad leader insisted, stubbornly believing the opponents didn’t have the guts to directly blow up the motel, and ordered someone to negotiate.
With a hardened expression, a henchman raised his hands and walked out, saying, “Our boss said, you have to prepare a car for us, and that damn Mano. Our boss gave you so much money, took care of so many people for you, took out so many competitors for you, and now you’re turning on us? Fxxk you! You son of a bitch!”
Seeing the unfriendly expressions on Jimmy’s and the Police Chief’s faces, the henchman quickly said, “It was not me! It was our boss who said it!”
“Okay! We can prepare a car for you. But you also have to ensure the hostages are safe,” Jimmy laughed. Were they really delivering themselves to the door, not taking the clay explosives seriously?
In fact, whether there were hostages or not wasn’t all that important. Everyone gathered here was either a Poison Worm or a sex worker, but among them were many victims who were forced into this. They couldn’t possibly leave no survivors.
“You have to ensure you won’t harm us!” the leader yelled, “Get that Black Hawk Helicopter to back off! The further, the better!”
Jimmy and the Police Chief readily agreed, and everyone began to leave the scene.
Allen Zhang also informed Boketu to pilot the Black Hawk Helicopter away.
Watching the officers and Jimmy’s men quickly leaving from the second floor, members of Tad were puzzled, “They just obeyed and left like that? Is it really for the hostages? There isn’t a trick, is there?”
“We’ll drive the police car out and head straight for the shrubbery and forests, then drive to the nearest town and community. Even if they try to chase us with the Black Hawk Helicopter, they wouldn’t dare to shoot at us! That would harm many people!” said the Tad leader with a clear, rational mind.
Without delay, they packed up their valuables, took a regular client, who was also a Poison Worm, as a hostage.
Seeing the horror and pleas on the client’s face, the Tad leader said without an ounce of regret, “Sorry, buddy, we need your help now, or would you rather not?”
“Why don’t we just surrender? That way, everyone could have a better outcome,” said the client in despair.
“Fxxk! What do you know? They’ve deployed so many resources just to kill me. I’d have no good end if I surrendered.”
The leader didn’t trust his former partners and cursed, “God knows why they turned their guns on me. Was someone else paying more? Or did they get something on them? They worry about their dirty scandals being exposed, don’t they worry I might spill everything?”
Unable to understand the situation but still determined, they grabbed all their valuables, rushed downstairs to the police car. They didn’t bother with the remaining sex workers and clients.
As the Tad leader looked around and saw no one, with Jimmy and the Police Chief already hundreds of meters away and the Black Hawk Helicopter gone, he felt relieved.
He ordered his men into the car, started it with half a tank of fuel, no problem there. The Tad leader told his men to drive, stepping on the gas and leaving the motel behind.
“Ha ha ha! Those idiots! They actually let us go! Damn them! They will regret this!” The Tad leader shouted excitedly, “God bless!!”
“Boss, the car’s overloaded with too many people. If they chase us, we won’t get far before they catch up,” the driver couldn’t believe their smooth escape.
“Then get rid of the excess weight,” the leader didn’t hesitate to decide to push the hostages out of the car.
The henchmen opened the doors, ignoring the resistance and throwing people out. The police car continued racing forward, turning into the secluded woods as per the previous plan.
