As he was talking, Officer Franklin's cell phone suddenly rang.
"Mr. Gregory is on the phone." Franklin suddenly shouted excitedly.
He immediately pick up the phone.
The person who called, however, was not Karl, but Joyce.
"Franklin, Karl is now at the end of the 7th Avenue. There are some large abandoned concrete pipes in the wilderness, and he is now hiding in the thickest one. Take someone to rescue him immediately! He's been shot. Be quick!"
Joyce finished in one breath and hung up the phone directly.
"Hello? Hello? Hello?" Franklin shouted into the phone several times, but all he got was the "Beep-beep-beep-beep" sound.
The other officers immediately gathered around, "What did Karl say?"
Franklin looked bewildered, "It wasn't the captain, it was Joyce. She said the captain is now at the end of the 7th Avenue, hiding in an abandoned concrete pipe in the wilderness, the thickest one. The captain … the captain was shot!" At the end, Franklin stammered. He was so nervous that he could barely finish his words.
Luther was standing off to the side when he suddenly heard Franklin mention Joyce.
He instinctively stepped forward, grabbed Franklin's phone and held it to his ear, "Joyce? Is that you? Where are you?"
Unfortunately, he heard nothing but the busy tone.
He immediately called back, but unfortunately, no one answered the call this time.
"Don't call back!" Franklin hurriedly took his phone back and said, "Sorry, Mr. Warner. Frequent calls make it easier for the thugs to locate them. They will be in greater danger."
