John dashed at top speed, and soon arrived at the wreckage.
The three-car pile-up was pure carnage, and there was already a huge crowd standing around the scene.
When John saw the car in the middle that was in pieces, and the car plate that was barely hanging on…
No.
She wasn’t in the car.
She couldn’t be.
But that really was Sean's car, which he used to drive Cordy around when she was in the capital.
John couldn't care less and charged through the crowd, and leaned over the car window to get a look inside.
Unfortunately, there were too many cracks for him to see clearly.
He gritted his teeth and punched it, but it did not shatter.
It was bulletproof glass, and it didn’t break despite the initial crash.
John didn’t drag his feet and turned, heading towards the nearest car and asking the driver urgently, "Get me a hammer."
Most cars had one in case of emergencies, and the driver quickly brought him his.
John dashed back to the black Roll Royce, found a good spot on the window and struck it, shattering instantly.
When it did, John saw Cordy, bleeding from her pale, little face.
She was unconscious and her entire body was wrapped tightly in the airbag, keeping the extent of her injuries unknown.
He tried to pull the door as hard as they could, but it was jammed and not budging at all.
Gritting his teeth, he pushed in through the car window without caring that the glass of the window was cutting into him, and tried to pull Cordy as hard as he could out of the car.
However, she was stuck inside, kept in place by something unknown; she couldn’t move her at all.
