Bai Ye asked in confusion, "Did the police find it?"
Although it was difficult to leave the city undetected by the police, hiding somewhere wasn't that easy to be discovered.
But to say they voluntarily showed up…
Jin Sha was being watched by the Flying Mantis, so why did the police know so quickly?
Bai Ye was a bit bewildered.
Jin Sha said, "It's a pity we switched cars and lost the police radio. Otherwise, we could still listen in and find out what's going on."
As they spoke, the two followed the police convoy forward, and soon, a large red bridge appeared before them.
The Hongmen Bridge was a grand over-river bridge. Due to the arched shape of its support pillars on both sides and the fact that the entire bridge was red, it was named the Hongmen Bridge.
And at this very moment…
Rumble!
An explosion suddenly rang out!
In the direction of the city near the Hongmen Bridge, accompanied by a loud noise, a large patch of flames suddenly rose into the air, and thick black smoke dispersed in the sky.
Bai Ye leaned out to look and said, "It looks like they've started fighting."
Jin Sha nodded. "Should we go in directly?"
"Not yet!" Bai Ye said. "The Hongmen Bridge is very long. Once chaos erupts, there's a high chance of traffic jams. We won't be able to drive away then and will have to go on foot. It won't be that easy to escape."
Bai Ye spoke as he pointed ahead. "Stop at that intersection."
Jin Sha nodded and pulled the car over to the side.
Even though they were still some distance from the explosion site, people in the area had already started fleeing. Moreover, the police were rushing towards the Hongmen Bridge, and no one was maintaining order here, making everything seem somewhat chaotic.
Bai Ye got out of the car and looked around. He quickly spotted a young couple running hand in hand. As they passed by, Bai Ye suddenly grabbed their collars and threw them into a side alley, then stood at the alley entrance with an AK47.
"Don't, don't, don't kill me…"
The couple immediately clung to each other, trembling as they looked at the gun.
The man was the first to remember something and shakily handed his wallet to Bai Ye.
Bai Ye casually swatted the wallet away with the muzzle of his gun. Did he look like a street thug robbing a wallet?
The man nervously took out a set of car keys and said, "My car is at the fruit store at 22 Locke Avenue…"
Before the man could finish, Bai Ye kicked the car keys out of his hand.
Did he not want the car either?
The man then gritted his teeth, pushed the young woman next to him forward, and said, "From now on, she's my ex-girlfriend!"
The woman was stunned, then backhanded the man across the face and said angrily, "Say that again, and see if I don't make my marital status 'widowed'?"
The man weakly replied, "We're not married yet…"
Slap!
The woman slapped the man across the face again. "We'll get married tomorrow, and you'll be a widower the day after!"
Bai Ye was speechless. He directly raised his gun and pulled the trigger into the sky.
With the gunshot, the couple instantly snapped out of it and quickly embraced each other again, trembling.
"Can you show me some respect?" Bai Ye said. "I'm robbing you, be serious!"
The man stammered, "Big brother, what are you robbing? I don't have any other valuables!"
As he spoke, he nervously reached to cover his backside.
In this day and age, it was either robbery for money or for sex. But since the other party didn't even want the woman, it could only be that he was after his tender and juicy sunflower.
Bai Ye said, "Take out your phones, both of them."
"Huh?" The man was taken aback. "Just the phones?"
Bai Ye pressed the gun to the man's forehead and said, "I don't have time, I'll count to three."
The couple quickly took out their phones and handed them to Bai Ye.
Bai Ye took the phones, turned, and left the alley. The couple finally breathed a sigh of relief. After Bai Ye was long gone, the man began to curse.
"Are you crazy? My car is worth thousands of phones!"
"Hmph!" The woman snorted. "I think we should continue our conversation about widowhood."
"Ah, my dear, no, it was a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding…"
…
On the other side, after leaving the alley, Bai Ye handed one of the phones to Jin Sha.
"Drive to the vicinity of the Hongmen Bridge," Bai Ye said, pointing to a tall building in the distance. "I'll find a high vantage point to observe the situation and keep in touch."
Phones, as communication devices, were useless on the World Battlefield.
Because there was no signal.
In fact, not only phones, but even some advanced technological communication devices might not work, especially across regions. There were almost no means of communication.
However, phones snatched from this city and used only within this city were still viable.
"Okay!"
Jin Sha nodded, took the phone, and drove away.
Bai Ye walked to the side, his target a tall clock tower, which was one of the taller buildings in the area and was noticeably higher than its surroundings.
Soon, Bai Ye climbed to the top floor of the clock tower, pushed open a window, and began assembling his sniper rifle from its case. Then, he used the scope to observe the area near the Hongmen Bridge.
Complete chaos!
In front of the Hongmen Bridge, the police had set up roadblocks, and a large number of police officers were on high alert. To the right of the Hongmen Bridge, about a kilometer away, was what should have been the cargo terminal, but now that entire area was in complete disarray.
Explosions erupted one after another, and people were firing wildly in the streets.
There had been a serious car accident, with over a dozen vehicles in a chain reaction collision, blocking the entire street haphazardly.
Suddenly, a man jumped onto the roof of a car, roaring and firing forward.
"Hmm?"
Bai Ye's pupils contracted. He quickly adjusted the scope and focused on the man's neck.
A coiled dragon-shaped tattoo!
"Damn it!" Bai Ye cursed. "The Hidden Dragon Society!"
After cursing, Bai Ye quickly took out his phone and called Jin Sha.
Soon, Jin Sha's voice came through. "Did you find something?"
Bai Ye asked, "Did the person who snatched Alex from you have a dragon tattoo?"
"A tattoo?" Jin Sha was stunned. "I didn't pay attention. I recall the person was very tall and strong, wearing a green tank top and camouflage pants."
Bai Ye asked, "How many people?"
Jin Sha replied, "Two. The strong man attacked me, while the other stayed in the driver's seat and didn't move, so I don't know what the other person looked like."
