To Love You Again

Chapter 746 - Chaos Everywhere

The lively bustling city was suddenly disrupted by a series of gunshots.

On a long highway, a group of black cars were chasing another group ahead.

Loud honks and tire screeches filled the air as many ordinary vehicles attempted to avoid them.

In one of the cars speeding ahead, the driver cursed as they avoided the gunshots aimed at them from behind. He constantly swerved the car to avoid the bullets raining on the tires.

"Fuck! How did they know that we are operating in City Z? These people came out of nowhere and ambushed us!"

In the other escaping car, another man in the passenger seat cursed when he saw that he was out of bullets.

"Damn! This gun is useless. Is there any backup yet?"

The man on the driver's seat was on a call with his wireless earphone.

He tried to contact several times, but the back-up team was already out of reach. It only meant one thing.

He cursed as well. "Fuck. They got the back-up team. We are on our own now."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Crash!

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Are we going to die here?!"

As the man said that, an explosion occurred at their side. One of their men's car blew up.

"No doubt about it. The Faceless King's faction really wants us all dead. Is our organization doomed?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Once we get out of here, we need to talk to the master personally. We are dispatched by Ifel's order, yet that bastard is leading us to sucide missions. We cannot let this happen any further!"

However, before the other man could respond, their tire exploded. The car behind them smashed onto them with force.

They could not even breathe properly, when a quick sound of gunshots put an end to their lives.

….

At another place, a delivery man handed a box to a tall man with a tattoo, who obviously looked like a gangster.

"Hey, who among you have a delivery? If you don't want it, I will have it."

The men inside were checking the batch of ammunition they had to transport to another area. Since the clan war was ongoing right now, weapons were a necessity.

A man came towards the man who came with a box.

"What's in it?"

"I don't know, it is sealed."

"Idiot, don't carelessly accept parcels--"

Boom!

The entire building shook as it was caught in a series of explosions. The boxes of ammunition lying around also exploded one after another.

The weapons inside the building were now deemed useless.

In a three-story building, a man in a black suit was talking on his phone.

He was a high ranking member in Ming Zhi Yi's organization. Currently, he was debating with Ifel Abromich.

"Sir Abromich, we already lost many men in this fight. They seem to know where our operations will occur. Are you sure, Sir Abromich, that you don't have any spies on your side?"

Their organization was huge as they conquered many clans before. However, now that the continuous attacks came out one after another against them, it weakened them greatly.

In this clan war, the Abromich was clearly overexploiting them! They were being used as a gunner and shield!

From the other line, Ifel Abromich yelled at the man.

"Are you questioning me? You just need to follow my orders. I know what I am doing. Once the global alliance takes their eyes away from me, I will definitely send more men and help on your side. Losing some pawns is normal in clan wars."

"But this is clearly suicide--"

The man had not yet finished his sentence, when a group of people in police's uniform suddenly burst into his office and surrounded him.

"Police! You are surrounded!"

"Drop everything to the ground! Put your hands on your head!"

Fuck!

The man dropped his phone. His eyes were panicking.

Soon, the entire building fell into the hands of the police. After a thorough check, they found drugs, weapons, and some traces of illegal transactions they conducted underground.

These chaotic scenes happened in many areas of various countries. Cross-fires between two groups, bombing the enemy's territory and some even used the national police's involvement.

Whenever those accidents occurred, it would leave a pile of dead bodies.

Even the common people were affected by such gang fights due to the constant bombing and gunfire happening everywhere.

********

Under the sun, while the high society and the business industry faced constant changes due the economic war between Ming Zhi Yi and the four families, in the underground world, life-threatening situations kept happening.

Although the underworld clan war was happening in the Middle East region and the borders, the crime rate in the country still rose, especially in less developed areas. People were now afraid to come out at night or wander in public places, due to the many 'accidents', cross-fires, and horrible deaths being aired on national television news.

"This is terrible. I heard there was a bomb threat in the subway. Now, I'm scared to go to work…"

"My coworker told me yesterday that there was a gunfight in their area. Some gangs apparently had a conflict there. I heard two people died."

"No, I heard there were three…"

"What's going on now? What is the government doing?"

"But the situation at the borders is much worse, though. I watched in the news that the war in Country Q has gotten worse. Apparently, some illegal smugglers and traffickers were the cause…"

The initially oblivious mass was finally becoming aware of the crisis happening around them. While the rich and the wealthy fought, the common people were likely to become cannon fodder.. It was the sad truth of any turbulent country.
