Peter made a run for his life. He jumped up and down, ran to a street corner and disappeared in an instant.
A dozen strong men ran after him. Outraged, they shouted,"The bastard is going to die today!"
However, before they reached the street corner, to their surprise, Peter was there. He was waiting for them.
The strong men were more than happy to see him again. With clenched fists and locked jaws, they were ready to tear him apart. But before they could do so, Peter proudly said,"Don't bother running after me anymore. The police are here."
Just then, numerous police officers appeared behind him.
The men were caught by surprise when they saw the police officers. Obviously, they did not expect that the reinforcement would arrive so fast at the scene. There was no alarm, and they did not hear any sirens from the police cars.
Suddenly, their thoughts were disrupted. Amelia, head of the police officers, raised a gun and said,"Drop your weapons and get down!"
The group of men was dumbfounded for a moment. But then, their eyes glittered with evil delight.
'We are not cowards! Surrender to the cops? No way!' Besides, they had already killed several people and had gotten their hands dirty. They were not going to surrender now. They realized, they would definitely be executed in jail. There was no way out of this.
"Sir, please leave here as soon as possible! Come on, guys! Kill them all!" one of the men shouted, and hurled his weapon towards Amelia.
Then he rushed at the police officers like crazy.
Emboldened, the other men followed his example. They all charged towards the policemen, and no one was stopping.
'The cops have guns. If we run away, they will shoot at us, we would be killed immediately. Rather than being shot, we'd better keep fighting!
We have been cornered. We don't have a choice but to die or to fight.'
Seeing this, Tim's eyes flashed with anger. Without saying anything, he turned around and left without being noticed.
'The cops would never catch me!'
"Damn it!"
Amelia became furious. She tried to dodge the weapon that was hurled at her and fired a shot. "How dare you disrespect the law! Catch them all! If you guys won't cooperate, we would fire again!"
Bang!
A bullet was fired from the gun and went straight into the chest of one of the gangsters. It killed him instantly. He fell on the ground and bathed in his own blood.
The death of one of the men did not scare the other members of the gang. Instead, it fueled their anger.
"Kill them!"
A deafening roar of anger erupted. The rest of the strong men charged at the police with no regard for their own lives.
The faces of the policemen turned pale. They did not expect this group of gangsters would risk their lives just like that. It was their first time to deal with this kind of furious and desperate men.
The policemen gritted their teeth, pulled out their guns and opened fire at the strong men approaching them.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Next thing, bullets were flying and blood was everywhere.
The strong men fell down one after the other, moaning in pain and anger.
Most of the strong men died instantly or were badly injured. Only six were left fighting the police.
They were able to close in at the policemen.
"Go to hell!"
One of the six men sneered and gave one of the police officers a strong punch! The officer fell down on the ground right away with blood dripping out of his nose. His gun was taken away by the man.
At the same time, the other five defeated five policemen themselves and took away their guns.
With a gun in each one's hand, they feared nothing.
Armed with guns and holding six policemen hostages, the six men became more uncontrollable and aggressive.
Amelia and the other officers had wanted to shoot. But considering the safety of the hostages, they had to think of another plan.
"Step back! Everybody steps back! Or I will blow his brains out!"
one of the men shouted. He smiled viciously while hiding behind a hostage and pointing the gun at his head.
"Put down the weapons, or you will regret it!" said Amelia. Her face became troubled. She tried to convince them to surrender. "Put down your weapons and surrender! That is the best choice for you! If you surrender, there may still be a way out. If you refuse, there is only one ending for all of you! It's the end of the road for you!
Even if you manage to escape today, we would hunt you everywhere in the country or even in the whole world. You will have nowhere to go. To live would be no better than to die."
"Shut up!"
The man knocked the hostage's head with his gun and injured the officer badly that blood gushed out of his head. "Damn it! Don't play games with me!
I have killed so many people and in full view of everybody attacked your police officers. Even if I surrender, I am doomed to be executed. I am not a fool.
Step back! Step back! Or I will shoot him now! I am ruined and sentenced to die anyway. Why not end everything together with you?"
The man went berserk and shot the hostage in his arm.
Bang!
