Chapter 3224 (1/2)

Chapter 35 Turtle caught in a jar (3)

A group of people from the State of Yue kidnapped a resident of a residential building and used him as a hostage to confront the police.

Even though it was late at night, it did not hinder the speed at which the news spread.

Especially when a large number of police cars pulled the siren and pa.s.sed by, teams of police officers, special police officers who wore military boots and helmets, and riot police all gathered from the surroundings of Fringe City and finally gathered in the vicinity of the district.

In addition to the emergency evacuation of the residents of the upper floor of the small district, he happened to see the police rus.h.i.+ng over. Some of them opened the door and hid behind their guns while others directed the evacuation of the residential district.

In the shortest amount of time, the news of a whole building's residents being kidnapped and taken hostage spread throughout the border city.

In a small place like Fringe City, apart from those who frequently went in and out to do business or to run errands, most of the people here were locals. They lived in this small city for generations, from a small village on the border to a small town and finally to a small city.

Thus, when the news of a residential building's citizen being held hostage spread, almost everyone's heart was moved. Countless people received a call late into the night, hung up, and then made a phone call with a drastic change in their expressions …

It wasn't just Fringe City. In this era where the internet and information was well-developed, although security was chaotic, there were very few major cases. The news had already spread to the internet, and the youngsters were even more curious.

The news began to spread from the local forums.

The provincial government had already received the news, so they had to coordinate the nearby garrison. As for the border city's local garrison and riot police, they were all transferred to the scene...

… ….

”Now everything is moving.”

After putting down the phone, Ji Feng could not help but shake his head and sneer, ”Looks like these people are no longer satisfied with the small skirmishes from before and started to play big!”

When the news spread outside, Ji Feng was stunned. He never thought that these people would dare to cause such a ruckus and kidnap the citizens as hostages. They must be up to no good!

Next to Ji Feng was a young soldier dressed in camouflage clothing. If one looked closely, one could see that this soldier's face was somewhat similar to Ji Feng's. Although his face was still a bit young, it was also filled with resolution.

”Third Brother, are you sure they'll pa.s.s by here?” The young soldier asked uncertainly.

”If I only had a fifty percent chance of success before, then I can now confirm it.”

Ji Feng smiled, ”Otherwise, why do you think there's such a big commotion in the city? The people of the State of Yue are more familiar with Fringe City than us. If they had received the news long ago, it would have been easy for them to escape.

Even if he wasn't there, Ji Feng knew how difficult it was to kidnap all the residents of a building at the same time. Perhaps he wanted to use a gun to coerce them into not daring to fight back, but in an old residential area like this, the population would definitely be large.

With time, why not just take a few hostages and run away as soon as possible?

It would be great if he could escape, but if he couldn't, he would be surrounded. Then he would have hostages in hand and could negotiate with the Chinese police.

Now that they had captured all of the residents of the building, it would not be easy for them to leave without attracting too much attention.

The entire Fringe City, including the eyes of the entire province, would be focused on this small region. When that time came, no matter what tricks the people of the State of Yue played, they would not have a chance to make a comeback.
