Chapter 344 - 344: Cuff and Take Them Away
A piercing sound of sirens kept coming from a distance.
Upon hearing the sirens, everyone turned their attention to the opposite side of the road.
Suddenly, a dozen police cars rushed in and surrounded Kyle and the others.
Connor squinted at the police cars and turned to Thomas, asking, “Did you call them?11
“No…11
Thomas shook his head hurriedly. As the general manager of the Empire World Building, he wasn’t foolish enough to call the police to handle such matters.
Stephanie also turned her head to look at the direction of the police cars, wearing a puzzled expression. She never expected the police to show up at this moment.
Therefore, these police officers were not called by Connor or Stephanie. It was highly likely that the people present at the scene had reported the incident when Howard fired his gun.
“Mr. Connor, if the police come, things might get complicated!” Thomas hesitated for a moment and whispered to Connor.
“Do you have a solution?” Connor asked.
“It’s not easy…” Thomas shook his head lightly. If it were in Porthampton, the police would show him some respect due to his position as the general manager. Bur this was Phillips Estate. Thomas didn’t even know the police in this area.
Upon hearing his words, Connor couldn’t help but frown, feeling extremely unwilling. He knew that if he let Stephanie and the others go today, he might never have a chance for revenge again. So even if rhe police arrived, he had no intention of giving up.
Freya and the others stood behind Connor, looking at him with puzzled expressions. They had no idea what he was thinking at the moment.
“Mr. Connor, 1 still have some connections in Phillips Estate. I can give it a try!” Thomas suddenly spoke up.
“Alright!” Connor replied indifferently upon hearing his words.
“Listen, all of you. You are completely surrounded by us. Now, immediately drop your weapons, or we will take actions!” At that moment, a middle-aged man in a police uniform stepped out of the police car and shouted at Connor and the others using a loudspeaker.
Upon hearing this, Kyle’s men turned their heads to look at him.
“Put down your weapons!” Kyle ordered expressionlessly.
Upon hearing his command, they naturally didn’t dare to act rashly. They quickly dropped their weapons and made way for the police officers.
The police officers, more than a dozen of them, immediately rushed toward Connor and the others.
“Chief Hans, what’s going on?” Kyle saw the police officers preparing to take action and quickly stepped forward, smiling as he asked at the middle-aged police officer.
Chief Hans, the middle-aged police officer, couldn’t help but pause. His tone became puzzled as he said to Kyle, “Mr. Kyle, what are you doing here?”
It was evident that Chief Hans spoke very politely to Kyle.
“Chief Hans, this is my boss, Mr. Connor. Why did you come here this time?’1 Kyle directly stated Connor’s identity.
After Hans Mason found out about Connor’s identity, his eyes were obviously a little surprised.
He had never thought that the man standing in front of him was Kyle’s boss!
Hans knew very well what Kyle’s boss represented.
“Mr. Kyle, 1 just received a report that someone was shooting here, so I brought a team over to see what’s going on!”
Hans explained to Kyle with a smile and then continued, “Mr. Kyle, you should have been here during the gunfire, right?”
“That’s right, I’m here too!”
Kyle nodded slightly, then looked down at Howard who was lying on the ground and said in a low voice, “Chief Hans, this was the person who fired the gun just now. But don’t worry, my bodyguards have already helped you take down this person!”
“So that’s how it is!”
Hans also glanced down at Howard who was lying half-dead on the ground, and continued speaking, “1 am truly grateful to Mr. Kyle for eliminating harm for the people. Your bodyguards are not injured, right?’1
“No…”
Kyle shook his head lightly.
“That’s good…”
Hans flashed a tight lip smile, then turned his head and shouted at the police behind him, “What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and handcuff this person and take him away…”
“Yes!”
The police behind him nodded quickly and walked towards Howard.
“Oh, and bring that woman with me too. She is associated with the suspect!”
He pointed at Stephanie with a blank expression and shouted.
After hearing his words, Kyle was stunned in place, a him of surprise flashed across his face.
He had never mentioned the relationship between Stephanie and Howard to Hans. So how was it possible for Hans to know that they were working together.
Furthermore, if the police were to take both of them away, it would no longer be Connor’s decision on how to handle them, but the decision of rhe police!
“Chief Hans, you can’t take these two people away!”
Kyle stepped forward and directly confronted Hans.
“I can’t rake them away?”
Hans couldn’t help but pause when he heard this, then his face suddenly changed, and he looked at Kyle and asked, “Mr. Kyle, what do you mean by that? These two people are the suspects in the shooting incident just now. Why shouldn’t 1 take them away?”
“Chief Hans, you misunderstood me. Here’s the situation, these two people still have some personal grudges with my boss, Mr. Connor, that have nor been resolved. So, could you wait until we settle all these matters, and then you can take them away?” Kyle said with a smile.
“Mr. Kyle, this is Phillips Estate, not Porthampton. I don’t know what it’s like in Porthampton, but here we follow the law. So, I must take these two people away immediately. Do you understand what I mean?” Hans said solemnly.
“What if 1 don’t let you take them away?”
At that moment, Connor suddenly spoke up.
Hans turned his head and glanced at Connor, then said sternly, “Anyone who dares to obstruct us from performing our official duties today will be immediately handcuffed and taken away!”
After hearing Hans’ words, Connor, Kyle and Thomas were stunned in place, their expressions extremely unpleasant..
