Chapter 1013
Several helicopters gathered on the outskirts of Aurous Hill and headed towards the border of the province at high speed, narrowing the distance with the target little by little.On the other hand, the white Iveco Daily was on the federal route, driving according to the speed limit. They often stumbled upon traffic congestion or red lights that limited their overall speed and traveling distance.Gibson chose the federal route instead of the highway because of one main reason, that was, the structure of the road itself.As the highway was a closed-circuit route, it would be hard for them to escape if the police marked them and set up roadblocks. However, federal routes were different. They were connected to various townships and counties, so it would be extremely hard for the police to pinpoint their location and to block their path.Besides, if they faced any problem, they could simply abandon the van and run away. Federal routes provided a lot of excellent hiding locations. They c

The drivers behind the trucks got out of his car to check what happened, curious and angry.At this moment, a person from the fleet got off the truck and shouted using a loudspeaker, “Everyone, we have just received an urgent notice from the management that the bridge has become hazardous and there is a risk of collapse at any time. We are trying our best to repair the damage as soon as possible. For your safety, please make a detour. Thank you for your cooperation.”The drivers were blowing a gasket, but their anger dispersed in an instant upon hearing the announcement. No one doubted their credentials, especially when they saw so many heavy-duty trucks parked on the bridge. In fact, they were feeling fortunate that they had been following behind these trucks. If they had been in front of the fleet, wouldn’t they drive on this dangerous bridge?Hence, everyone quickly got back into their vehicles, turned around, and took a detour, avoiding the bridge at all costs.Behind the whe

Gibson finally realized that something had gone terribly wrong at this point. How else could he explain the sudden appearance of so many trucks that surrounded them for no reason?Moreover, from the looks of their stance, they didn’t intend to let them escape, hence the parallel formation.They had heavily-loaded trucks sandwiching them both front and rear, with the river roaring under the bridge. If these trucks were really coming at them, they would have no way out.Gibson shuddered in horror and said, “Are they here for the kids? Why? These kids are just a bunch of low-life orphans!”“That’s right!” Gibson’s brother said, “Besides, the police didn’t even come after us yet. Why are these people here?”As the two fleets of trucks were inching closer and closer to them, Gibson’s brother had no choice but to stop the van.Everyone in the van panicked, including Max.Max stumbled into an unending horror at the moment. No one knew the orphanage better than he did. If these children

At this moment, a loud sound of helicopters roaring from outside the van.Everyone was even more panicked as the helicopters’ movement was very loud coupled with the overly familiar chopping sound.Max asked frantically, “What is going on? Why are there helicopters? Who are these people?”Gibson’s father pulled the curtain open in a small gap and peeked outside when he saw several helicopters lined up in the sky like an army of metallic birds. He gaped in shock and remarked, “Oh my god, there are many helicopters in the sky! Even if the police want to arrest us, they wouldn’t use helicopters! Did we get on some VIPs’ nerves?”While talking, the helicopters were directly above their car as the loud roar resonated throughout the bridge and into the van.Charlie was sitting on one of the helicopters, overlooking the scene that was unfolding on the bridge.The entire bridge was being blocked by the fleets of trucks. In the middle of the bridge, dozens of large trucks surrounded the I

Turning on the PA system on the helicopter, Charlie aimed the mic to his mouth directly and shouted, “Everyone in the van, listen carefully, you are being surrounded. Surrender yourselves right now, or I’ll start shooting!”Charlie’s announcement sent shivers down the spines of the seven adults in the Iveco.Gibson was on the verge of collapsing. Even if he murdered someone, why would the law enforcement use such excessive tactics to apprehend him?His family was shaking in terror. Earlier, they were still dreaming about the wonderful trip to the Maldives as soon as they got the money, but they had never expected to be surrounded like rats in a ghastly trap.Max was even more frightened than all of them. He regretted his decision very much!It wasn’t just regret, but there was also panic.However, he blinked as if something struck his mind. Why did he find the voice of the person doing the announcement from the helicopter so familiar? Yet, he couldn’t figure out that it was actua

Gibson’s family shrieked at the top of their lungs upon the horrifying sight!They didn’t expect that the person would literally command his shooter to shoot immediately after three seconds!The victim, who was the eldest son of the Little family, was also the son Gibson’s parents adored the most. As blood trickled down his temple, the parents went berserk and cried devastatingly.Since Gibson was sitting right next to his brother, reddish blood and whitish mushy brain matter was splattered on his face and body.He was also so shocked by the absurd scene that his heart almost jumped out of his ribcage.When he started the trafficking business, he had never thought that it would be so deadly!Charlie’s cold voice sounded again from the helicopter’s PA system. “I’ll give you three more seconds. If you still refuse to get out of the van and surrender, I’ll let the snipers kill the second person randomly!”Losing the courage to resist, all six of them ran out of the van in a hurry.

In Max’s opinion, he would not be surprised no matter who stepped down from the helicopter, but Charlie was totally unexpected that he could only stare in disbelief.However, he was absolutely certain that the tall, handsome man with a cold face was indeed Charlie Wade, the man he grew up with in the orphanage!It was beyond his imagination as to how and why Charlie was so capable to mobilize such a powerful force to pursue them!The helicopters, the former special forces members, and the weapons they carried were definitely not something ordinary people could own, not even the richest man in Aurous Hill!He couldn’t help asking himself, ‘Who the hell is Charlie Wade?’‘Isn’t he an orphan? He is a moocher who lives off his wife! How can he own such a powerful force?’At this moment, Charlie stood in front of the six adults. Instead of looking at the other five people, he glared coldly at Max and exclaimed, “Max Wyatt! How dare you!”Max trembled in horror and cried, “Charlie, it

Gibson knew that Charlie had looked into all his details when he heard Charlie’s remark. He pleaded in desperation, “Boss, this is all a misunderstanding! I have some enemies and that’s why they tarnish my reputation all the time. I’ve never been involved in child trafficking before, it’s all just fake rumors!”Charlie chuckled. “Do you think I’m an idiot?”Gibson pleaded by knocking his head to the floor until his forehead turned bloody. “Please, boss, you have to believe me, this is all Max’s idea! He approached me first, saying that he was involved in some deep shit that he needed money urgently. It was him who told me that there are many children in the orphanage. He had even come up with the whole plan for us to abduct those children!”Charlie said coldly, “Don’t worry, I’ll settle the score with each of you one by one later, but first, tell me, who had you planned to sell these children to?”Gibson hurriedly admitted, “Boss, these children were to be sold to the beggar clan i
