Chapter 672 Is That A Norm Here
More than four hundred cops, each wielding a riot shield, leaped off the riot-control vehicles. Within a short period,
they encircled the police station and rescued all the unconscious officers in batches.
When Kane and the others were about to bring Ezekiel out of the police station, they were met by a formation of
four hundred riot police who were standing at the ready.
Kane was taken aback at that sight.
They had instigated disorder many times before, but the city council had never deployed the riot police. What's
going on?
“Listen up! Put down your weapons and come out with your hands up, or we will use force!” one of the riot police
officers bellowed, causing all the Browns to panic.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What should we do now, Kane?” one of the Browns asked anxiously.
“Yeah, tell us what to do, Kane. We'll follow your lead,” another person added.
Kane nervously clenched his blood-stained sickle and gritted his teeth. “Why should we be afraid of them when we
didn't do anything wrong? Let's charge out and beat up anyone who gets in our way! I don't believe these cops
would dare to arrest us all since there are so many of us from the Brown family here!”
Someone like Kane knew nothing about morals and principles, but he understood that the law would not hold the
masses accountable for the actions of a few individuals.
That was why the Brown family felt empowered to incite chaos at that location repeatedly due to their strong belief
in this principle.
However, this time, they had misjudged the situation.
As Kane led the charge against the riot police, they immediately realized their riot shields and batons were not
there just for show.
After herding all the villagers together, the police released tear gas, rendering them incapacitated.
The villagers at the forefront failed to breach the shield wall, while those at the back lost their resistance and could
only kneel on the ground, coughing and choking from the tear gas.
The riot police, who all had gas masks on, proceeded to arrest the vulnerable villagers one after another.
It was at that moment Edmund and Donald appeared before Riley. Edmund ordered, “Take them to the police
station and leave three squads here to guard the place. If anyone dares to make a scene again, deal with them the
same way.”
“Yes, sir!”
Remus finally understood why Riley was so confident earlier as he watched the villagers being loaded onto the
trucks. The city council has finally decided to take action against the Browns!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRemus could not help but glance at Donald. Who is this young man? The Brown family has been a longstanding
menace for over twenty years, yet he managed to resolve the problem in one go.
“You're finally here, Commander Saddler. If you had come any later, my colleagues and I would have been in
trouble.” Riley spoke in a pitiful tone, but his clothes remained unwrinkled, indicating he was not injured at all.
With his extensive experience in law enforcement, he had anticipated Edmund's timely arrival. This was the reason
for his self-righteous tone when he confronted Kane and his men.
Meanwhile, Edmund could already foresee Riley's promotion after that day's commotion.
On regular days, Edmund would not have paid any attention to local constables like Riley, but now, he started
treating Riley as if he was his brother. “We're all cops here, man. We can't let those Browns walk all over us. Don't
worry. We'll make sure they pay for this. They won't get away with it, that's for sure!”
Edmund said that on purpose in front of Donald, hoping to get some recognition for their efforts.
Yet, Donald questioned them in a nonchalant voice, “Mirror Lake is one of the few best-maintained tourist
attractions in the vicinity. How could this happen before I even got to the site? Does that mean this kind of incident
is a norm here?”
