The Bodyguard System

Nonetheless, neither of them could do anything about it, considering that they might end up irritating this group of gangsters, and end up being shot. So, they tried to maintain silence, making sure that the movements that they made were as minimal as possible.

Jaden on the other hand kept on looking around for an opportunity to take action. In case the opportunity presented itself, he would take action immediately, and look for a chance to get out of here.

But of course, it was going to be difficult for him to be able to get that chance. After all, for him to be able to get the chance of getting out of here, he would have to subdue the leader of the group, and bet that the others would not take action.

But now, they were on the back row seats of the van that could carry 14 passengers at once. So, it was impossible for him to be able to reach the leader of the group from the back, before being taken care of by the rest of the gangsters that were either sitting on either side of them, or in the front seats.

Second tiger on the other hand did not know what Jaden was thinking about. Instead, his expression was extremely gloomy because the moment that they got out of the underground parking of the bank, he realized that there was a large number of police cars waiting for them outside.

A large number of police officers were already pointing guns at them. He understood that the only reason why they were not shooting at them was simply because they were currently having hostages with them.

According to second tiger, there were only two reasons why the police were able to react in such a short time, and be able to surround the entire building. One of that is that, he was set up. And the other one was that, the background of this group of ladies and that young man was not simple.

The moment that it was confirmed that there was danger here, the police were immediately summoned over. It seems that the safety of these people was very important.

But second tiger leaned towards the first option. After all, it was almost impossible for the police to be able to react in a matter of less than 30 minutes, and fill up the entire streets around this building.

One had to know that the police would not just sit around the police station, considering that they would have to go on patrols, and handle other issues. But from the looks of it, it seems that they were waiting for this incident to occur.

Not caring much about it, he focused on what was going on outside the car. Despite the police officers pointing guns at them, they did not dare to shoot. Additionally, the road blocks that they had put were opened for them to go through.

"We are giving you a chance to release the hostages and surrender yourselves to the law. If you don\'t comply, the consequences will be heavier than you can handle." A shout from one of the megaphones by one of the police offices reached the ears of everybody within the van.

Second tiger and the rest of the group turned a deaf ear to the threat. How many times had they encountered situations like this? For them to be able to reach the level that they were in, it was clear that they had been involved in many things that revolved around the law.

So of course, they did not care much about the threats that they were receiving from the police. They believed that as long as they currently possessed the hostages, the police will not dare to take action against them.

So, despite how reluctant the police were, they had no choice but to helplessly watch as the van drove away. There was nothing that they could do, considering that this group of gangsters was currently having hostages.

Of course, they immediately began following them from a close distance, but made sure not to come too close. They were afraid that if they came closer, they might end up leading the gangsters to be agitated, and the hostages might be hurt.

Second tiger could not help but frown when he noticed that the police cars were following behind them. They wanted to escape, and so, it was better if the police could not follow them.

Currently, the road had already been cleared up, especially considering that the sound of gunshots had been coming from this area. So, most motorists had run away from this area, and those that were moving around the street had already retreated to other parts of the city.

Of course, that did not imply that the road was completely empty. Instead, despite this being the city center, the number of vehicles that could be seen on the road at this moment was extremely low. This was completely against second tigers plan of escape.

He frowned, as he began contemplating on what to do. After a moment, he told the driver to stop the car. Immediately after the car stopped, he got out of the passenger seat of the van, and entered the other door of the van, going to wear Jaden and the girls were currently at.

"I want you to tell me what kind of background you possess. If you dare to lie to me, your end will definitely not be good." Second tiger asked as he scrutinized each and every one of them.

Sylvia and Scarlet could not help but be a little surprised. Could it be that all of this had happened because of the background that they possessed? They doubted that this was going to be possible. That was unless the family already knew that an incident like this was going to happen at the bank.

But according to Clifford\'s character, in case he knew that something like this was going to happen, he would have not allowed them to come over. From this, they could immediately tell that perhaps this guy was misunderstanding something.

Additionally, they understood one more thing. In case they revealed their background, there was going to be danger and opportunity. The danger was going to be in case he found them a little troublesome, or he did not even care about the background that they were coming from, and ended up killing them.

As for the opportunity, he might be a little afraid of the background that they possessed, and in the end, release them. But of course, the possibility of any of them happening was 50/50 as of the moment, as they did not know the background of this group of gangsters.

Just as the two of them were hesitating on whether to reveal the background or not, Edward who was sitting just in front of them, spoke up.

"I will tell you. They are from the great Johnsons family of Faru city. I don\'t know the relationship of the two to the Johnsons, but still, I do know the relationship of the blonde haired one.

She holds a high position within the family, considering that she is able to discuss some important issues with me. So, in case you want a bounty before you release them, you can decide to take that blonde haired one." Edward stated.

He was still experiencing the pain from being shot, but still, he did not give up the hopes of being released. So, he hoped that by revealing this piece of information, this group of gangsters would be considerate and release him.

No matter how low the probability was, he was willing to bet his life on it. At the end of it all, his life was already in danger, and there was a great possibility that he was going to be killed.

Sylvia and Scarlet looked at Edward with hatred in their eyes. They had not yet decided what to do, and this big mouth spilled everything. Right now, they did not have anything to bargain with.

Despite the anger that they were feeling right now, there was nothing that they could do. After all, if they tried to do anything, they might end up being shot.

Second tiger on the other hand could not help but be a little surprised. Then, a smile appeared on his face. He had already thought that perhaps this group of three possessed quite some background, and it seemed to be true.

Since they were from the Johnsons, the reputation that they possessed within the city was enough to be able to guarantee his safe retreat.

He looked at Edward, and contemplated for a moment. Then, he signaled one of the gangsters to throw Edward out of the car.

At first, Edward was frightened. He thought that they wanted to finish him off. But he got excited the moment that the door of the van was opened, and he was thrown out. Despite the pain that he was undergoing, he could not help but be thrilled when he saw that the van had set off once again, leaving him behind safe and sound.
