Jasper nodded and went back to the room after eating. He did not know how long he had slept this time, but when he woke up, it was still daytime.
“You’re awake, Jasper. It’s the second day now,” Julian said from the side.
Jasper nodded, it seemed that he was indeed exhausted.
After a simple meal, Jasper and Julian came to the hospital and saw the two robbers lying on the hospital bed.
Outside the ward, many Qari local policemen were standing around.
After learning more about it, Jasper found that these guys were just a small team. They were ordered to stop a bus and kill everyone on it.
Jasper knew that the reason why Bella gave this order was that he was on the bus. However, Jasper lamented how Bella rather killed a thousand by mistake than let him go. Moreover, they had another team that intended to burn down a small oil field.
After they stopped the bus and completed their task, they would reunite with their main team.
Everyone in the world knew that Qari had the second-largest oil reserves in the world. Nowhere, except the Saad Region in the west, had more oil. However, the oil distribution here in Qari was not the same as that in Saad Region.
The oil in the Saad Region was distributed in large areas, but the oil distribution here in Qari was scattered all over the place. Besides certain large oil fields, the oil fields in Qari were basically controlled by local oil tycoons.
Those scattered small oil fields were located in remote areas, and those tycoons were not interested in them, so those oil fields had become targets of competition for the locals.
Everyone would make the best use of local resources. This place was rich in oil resources, and it was quite normal that there would be direct and indirect conflicts over this.
“What’s next, Jasper?” Julian asked.
What Jasper actually wanted to do the most was to meet Baltimore from the Kurt family. However, to be on the safe side, Jasper chose to settle for the next best thing.
“Forget it, I’ll call Rowan’s uncle first.”
