The man who spoke was of medium height and had tanned skin. In the darkness, his eyes shone with a fierce, cold light. He was a supporter of the old government.
They wanted to control the city so that they could have more bargaining power. Now that the entire city was infiltrated by armed forces, they were just waiting for the order to start the war.
The darkness of the night was always the best color for cover. The war would be launched once they seized the checkpoint.
K7 slowly stepped on the brakes and stared coldly at the flickering flames in front of him.
“What other route is there to go around?” he asked V8, who had also discovered the problem.
Two cars passed on their side. Unaware of the problem, they continued toward the city.
V8 shook his head. “There’s none,” he said grimly. “Just keep driving forward.”
There were only three ways to go from the port, but they did not have enough time to circle back.
“Continue driving.” Qin Xiu, who had woken up, didn’t hesitate. He looked at the flickering flames and said calmly, “We have to reach the negotiation point at six in the morning.”
The negotiation would take place at seven. There was no choice but to move forward.
10 minutes later, more and more convoys turned around and shouted at the cars that kept going. “There’s gunfire! Get out! Get out!”
Soon, more and more cars turned around on the highway that connected the two countries with the most traffic. However, some cars continued to drive forward.
When they passed by a car parked by the roadside, Ye Jian saw the driver holding his phone in the car while saying something excitedly.
It didn’t take long for their car to overtake it and speed toward the city.
Most of the cars moving forward were city locals. They still had families, and they had to bring their families back.
The cars that turned around were driving very fast. The cars that had entered the city were also driving quite fast. It undoubtedly gave K7 a chance to speed up and shorten the estimated time to reach the city.
As they approached the edge of the city, the gunshots were especially dense. As bullets fell, huge flames rose in the middle of the city.
The entire city was in chaos. Countless civilians who were affected by the artillery fire and gunshots hurriedly packed a few clothes and rushed out of their houses with the only banknotes they had.
Meanwhile, the civilians away from the war zone were wide-eyed. Families had gathered around with their hands clasped as they prayed for the war to end quickly and for the safety of their families.
The checkpoint had become redundant. Many civilians rushed out of the checkpoint, afraid to stay in their hometowns. Others drove their vehicles all the way out but had to abandon their vehicles when they realized the road was blocked.
Ye Jian and the others had already abandoned their car and blended into the local crowd looking for their families in the city. They passed by the sentry post and entered the city.
There was too much chaos and screams all around. There was no way to drive, so they might as well be on foot.
“Qin Xiu, over here!” Ye Jian held Qin Xiu’s right hand tightly. V8 was leading the way in front and K7 was covering the back. She only needed to take good care of Qin Xiu and not let him get lost.
Losing their sense of direction here would indeed be a big problem. If they were not careful, they would get lost. Ye Jian did not dare to be careless and could only hold his hand tightly.
This was the first time in Qin Xiu’s life that he was being led by a girl. This feeling of being protected by Ye Jian hit his heart hard, making him know that the girl he liked had a very firm and fearless belief.
Now, she was fighting to protect him!
