Felix was at a loss for words, running to Wyatt and asking shakily, "Sir, what's happening here?"
Wyatt was confused as well. He had not requested backup on the report. What were all these people doing here?
However, on second thought, maybe his superior was just here on monitor patrol.
That might be a good thing for him. His superior was one of his greatest sources of support for many years, and the main reason Wyatt was allowed to do whatever he wanted around here.
More importantly, all his superior had to do was just show himself, and these wretched townsfolk would scatter like mice. Wilbur and the rest would be arrested, and everything would be over.
All Wyatt had to do then was pay half of the 50 million dollars to the higher-ups above him, and the entire thing would be kept under wraps.
Just then, a young man in uniform emerged from one of the Audis and walked over.
At the same time, a tall, handsome female Special Forces officer walked up to the young man and greeted him, before the both of them headed over.
Wyatt hurried to greet them. Despite the fact that he did not know these people, only someone like his superior would go on patrol with such a big and impressive-looking team. All Wyatt had to do was say who he was, and everything would go his way.
He bowed deeply, greeting the man and woman with much courtesy.
The onlookers could not help but sigh, with disappointment clear in their eyes.
All of a sudden, someone shouted, "Bunch of pigs, covering for each other!"
The rest of the crowd balked, but someone else echoed the same chant. "Bunch of pigs, covering for each other!"
"Bunch of pigs, covering for each other!"
All at once, the crowd began shouting the chant at the top of their lungs.
The young man smiled at Wyatt. "These townsfolk seem pretty pissed, huh?"
"They're just causing a nuisance for nothing. You know the people who live in a dump like this are nothing short of horrible," Wyatt hurried to say.
