Chapter 355
356. Chapter 352: Bomb
The gunfire lasted until midnight before it completely subsided, as if the whole city had fallen into chaos. Lanse also went to sleep in the middle of the night.
Too many things happened tonight. People were still shocked by the mayor being shot during his speech, and the city broke out into even greater riots.
The gang controlled by the mayor behind the scenes started to launch a "gang war" toward the outside on the day he was shot. Lanse received a call from Foster at night.
The Kasiya family attacked the Pasiletu family's manor at 11:30 at night, and the two sides had an extremely intense exchange of fire, which lasted until after three o'clock before the battle was considered completely over.
But everyone knows that the end here refers to the end of this battle, not the end of the entire war!
The chaos in the city kept people's eyes on the mayor's assassination and the gang's fight, so much so that they didn't even notice that the workers at the dock had already started to strike!
Everything seemed to be squeezed together in an instant, making the ordinary people of New Jincheng feel incredible, and at the same time, they could clearly feel that a hand, or many hands, were manipulating everything to happen and change.
This feeling is very bad for ordinary people. They are like a leaf rolled by the wind from a cargo ship and fell into the sea.
When the leaf looked at the sea on the ship, it only felt refreshed, but when it fell into the sea itself, it understood what is called "surging waves"!
Lanse came to the hospital in the city center after seven o'clock in the morning. The city center also became much deserted. Many shops had bodyguards maintaining order at the door or inside, and there was broken glass from shop windows on the side of the road.
It should be that someone ransacked their shops in the middle of the night. For robbers, ransacking brand shops in the city center is clearly a very attractive criminal act.
Things from those expensive brands can be sold at a higher price when selling stolen goods, and they are not worried about not being sold.
These damages made the atmosphere in the city center a bit tense. On the way to the hospital, Lanse witnessed two roadside robberies, and someone was stabbed.
After the motorcade entered the hospital, the atmosphere here clearly made people feel more relaxed.
The medical group is the most difficult group of people to provoke. They have money and are willing to spend money.
No matter if you are a criminal or a politician, as long as they feel that you affect them making money, they will handle you.
The guards carrying submachine guns or rifles at the door are warning all criminals not to come here to find trouble.
On the bench outside Mo Lisi's ward, Lanse saw Enio.
The sound of footsteps woke Enio up. He turned over and sat up, and his hand was inserted into his bosom until he saw clearly that these people were his own people.
"I'm sorry!", Lanse apologized.
Enio and Mo Lisi are good friends. Both of them came to the federation when they were very young, brought by their families.
They have been here for about fourteen or fifteen years.
At that time, only one ship ticket was needed to come here. At that time, the federation was in the period of fastest development and needed a large number of workers, so at that time, no conditions were needed to become a federal person.
Enio's father was busy looking for his federal dream, and Mo Lisi's father, who hadn't become a complete gambler at that time, was also busy with work.
They lived relatively close, on the same street, and they got to know each other after going back and forth.
Enio likes to protect the weak, and Mo Lisi was not tall originally, so the two became a pair of partners.
Many times, from the surface, it was Enio who played the role of brother, protecting and helping Mo Lisi.
But in fact, the one who really played the role of brother was Mo Lisi, who had been in and out of the casino since he was a child.
He was clearly more mature than Enio, although he was small, he had more ideas than Enio.
After Enio's parents divorced, his feelings for his original family became much lighter, which also led to a closer connection between him and Mo Lisi.
Although the two have no blood relationship, they are really like brothers!
Enio's eye sockets turned red in an instant. Lanse gave him a hug, "I will make the people who hurt him pay the price!"
Enio nodded, his voice a bit choked, "I believe you!"
Lanse let go of him, "Is he awake?"
"Don't know..."
Lanse asked someone to find a doctor. The doctor smiled when he saw Lanse, but soon he realized that it was better not to smile at this time.
He was not very afraid of these gang family members, because these people would also get hurt, get sick, and eventually come to the hospital.
As long as they couldn't leave the hospital, the doctors didn't need to be too afraid of them. Instead, these people were high-quality customers!
Look, a gunfight, rescuing four, although three died, the three who died also had to pay a large rescue fee!
The doctor walked over with a serious expression, "Mr. Lanse!"
"How is my friend?", he asked.
The doctor picked up the writing board in his hand, which recorded the monitoring situation last night, "Mr. Mo Lisi's vitality is very tenacious, and he may wake up earlier than we expected."
There were nurses and doctors on duty in the ward at night responsible for checking Mo Lisi's situation. This kind of injury rescue, it is very likely that there will be some inexplicable sudden situation, and it will die if it is not handled in a short time.
So someone stared at him all night, including now, and there were two nurses and a doctor in the ward guarding Mo Lisi's life safety.
Of course, don't think that this hospital is responsible. When they heard that Mo Lisi only had basic insurance and Lanse was willing to pay the full amount, they showed such diligence.
If it weren't for the fact that arranging too many doctors was too... red-fruit, they would have wanted to arrange 100 doctors in Mo Lisi's ward to protect him alone!
"This is good news. Can we see him now?"
The doctor nodded, "Of course, but if you want to go in, you have to do full-body disinfection, otherwise you can only look through the glass."
"He has too many wounds on his body. We have to ensure that the room is as quiet as possible, which can reduce the risk of infection."
A group of people came to the doctor's duty office and saw Mo Lisi lying on the hospital bed through the huge glass wall.
He hadn't woken up yet, but the whole person was slightly swollen. The doctor explained that this was a normal phenomenon.
He was lying on the bed naked. The doctor also inserted a urinary catheter for him. Although it looked a bit funny, no one could laugh.
The places on his body wrapped in bandages were still faintly oozing blood. It can be seen that he really suffered this time.
Coming out of the hospital, standing on the steps, Lanse lit a cigarette.
Enio clenched his fists, "Lanse, let me go for this fight against the Wolf Gang."
Lanse didn't refuse, "Okay, but you have to take care of your own safety. I don't want you to lie down again after Mo Lisi wakes up."
He paused and looked at Burton, who was sitting in a wheelchair on the side.
In fact, Lanse knew that Burton didn't need to sit in a wheelchair. The bullet just shattered one of his ribs. The surgery had corrected the position of the rib. He was wearing a special piece of clothing now to ensure that the rib would not shift.
He could walk by himself, as long as he didn't run or jump, but he still chose to sit in a wheelchair, which seemed to show more "sincerity," after all, he was also someone who had bled for the family now.
"Mo Lisi's people will cooperate with you first. I want to figure out the situation of all senior cadres of the Wolf Gang, including their Wolf and the other person who is in charge."
Burton endured the severe pain caused by inhalation, and the smile he couldn't control almost made him lose his composure, "No problem, I will handle all this as soon as possible!"
Mo Lisi lying down was a bad news, but for him, it might be a good news instead.
He could intervene in more family affairs and gain more attention and right to speak.
If Mo Lisi didn't have an accident, he wouldn't have such an opportunity!
Lanse nodded slightly, "Do it as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, his hands pinching the wheelchair's rollers, and his joints turned white because of the force.
The professor was a bit embarrassed at this time, but only a little, because he calculated that Lanse would definitely retaliate against the Wolf Gang.
Facts also proved that he did retaliate, but the professor calculated the wrong target.
Counting the people on Qiaobafu's side and the people in the bar, this time they can be considered to have suffered heavy losses.
Two senior cadres died, and more than thirty core members died. Although Wolf didn't say anything, it could be seen from his painful expression that his heart also hurt!
The atmosphere inside the Wolf Gang is much better than some gangs. Wolf doesn't have much personal charm, which also makes him have no airs.
Anyway, everyone is a brother. He treats himself as a wolf leader. He will take care of everyone else. From their own perspective, the atmosphere is actually quite good.
The death of so many people made him have no smile all morning, but this kind of thing... it doesn't seem appropriate to say the professor, after all, the professor was only half wrong, not all wrong.
In Wolf's office, Wolf asked, "What do you think they will do next?"
People around looked at him. Although he didn't see their mocking expressions from these people's faces, the professor was still a bit embarrassed. Wolf really didn't know how to ask questions.
Knowing that this question would make him embarrassed, he still asked it.
Sometimes the professor didn't know if this guy was really stupid or pretending to be stupid!
He coughed, covering up his emotions, "Can't wait, continue to attack, attack bit by bit."
"Don't forget, besides our own ideas, there is also the task he gave us."
Hearing the professor talk about this, Wolf had an unhappy expression on his face, but he was helpless. After all, the mayor is the ruler of this city in name and more than half in reality. He couldn't refuse.
However, he thought again and asked, "I heard he was seriously injured..."
The professor pushed his glasses and looked at him, "He told us a few days in advance when to take action, and then he was shot before we took action."
"Wolf, in fact, I never expect you to keep up with my thinking, but I still hope you can move your brain more for this kind of simple question."
Wolf showed an annoyed look, "No one taught me these, damn it!"
He patted the table, "Then we hit over now?"
The professor nodded, "Let those small gangs rush to the front. If they refuse, tell them that whoever grabs the territory will be theirs in the future."
This sentence made Wolf's eyes widen. Perhaps knowing what this guy was going to ask, the professor still explained, "Don't worry that they will grow faster than us."
"Just find a reason and reveal some news to Lanse when the time comes."
"He will help us solve our trouble!"
These small gangs still maintained a relatively independent situation after merging into the Wolf Gang, which did not conform to the interests of the gang, so the professor planned to solve these troubles once and for all this time, letting Lanse help him solve it.
As long as their backbone and leaders die, the rest will naturally become real Wolf Gang members, helping them complete localization.
Wolf showed some disdain on his face, although he quite admired the professor.
The professor turned a blind eye to this disdainful look, "If you have no questions, go take action, pay attention to their people on the street!"
Because Burton and Mo Lisi were attacked, the entire Imperial District became loose on the outside and tight on the inside. The eyes of the old men were like the eyes of a hunting eagle, locking onto every pedestrian and every car on the street.
Burton being injured was a message that the sky had fallen for them. Now many people rely on Burton to live a happy old age.
For them, they don't care at all about who is the mayor and who is the municipal councilor, only Burton's health problem.
In fact, these people all know that above Burton is the Lanse family and Lanse, but these old men have too low social status and cannot contact "big shots" like Lanse at all.
So Burton became particularly important to them.
Several old men were still talking about the attack case that happened yesterday. They were of course discussing the case of Burton being shot.
"Have you heard?"
"Mr. Burton sent five thousand to the family of the waiter who died for him. He is really an amazing gentleman!"
Several other old people also showed admiration and a little envy in their eyes.
After all, that is five thousand. Give them five thousand, and they don't need to worry about money until they die!
Burton went to see the waiter's family in the morning and stuffed the five thousand into the other party's hands in front of everyone.
In his version of the story, the waiter took the initiative to attract the gunman's attention for him, creating an opportunity for him to escape.
Just because he once praised the waiter and gave him tips a few times.
He was very moved, so he decided to use five thousand to repay the waiter's family.
This matter soon spread in the Imperial District, and many people said that Mr. Burton is a good person with feelings and righteousness.
◆◆co
Obviously he didn't need to do anything for the person who died accidentally in the shooting case, but he still gave such a large sum of money.
The waiter's family was also very grateful for Burton's compensation. They accepted the fact that their loved one had left, and they didn't resent Burton, and hoped that their other children could also work for Burton.
Of course, Burton refused. He didn't want tragedy to befall this family again...
Several old people were saying these words, sighing at all this.
Suddenly, an old man saw two cars driving over from the direction of the port area.
The young people sitting inside didn't look like normal people looking at their serious faces. He hurriedly stood up and ran to the phone booth.
Not long after, Lanse heard this news.
Now Burton also has an office belonging to himself in the company, as well as a phone belonging to himself.
Lanse didn't even need to give Enio instructions, and he took people away.
Constantly, phone calls gathered the abnormal movements in the entire Imperial District. This is the reason why the professor would treat Burton as a target to deal with.
He thought Lanse's eyes were blind, but they weren't!
The gunfire that happened in other districts also gradually spread into the Imperial District. People living here also know what happened in these few days. When the gunfire rings, they will leave the scene as soon as possible, hiding in the alley or the shop on the side of the road.
After the gunfight ends, they come to the outside again.
The whole city had gunfire ringing all day long, and New Jincheng was chaotic as never before.
Charlie has begun to try to control the situation, but the effect is not very good.
There are exchanges of fire between gangs everywhere, fighting for territory, or just exchanges of fire to attack the other party's effective strength.
People kept calling the police station, saying that the glass in their house was suddenly pierced by a bullet, and even some unlucky people were accidentally injured by bullets—
The bullet penetrated the thin wooden wall and shot him!
The entire police station was full of calls that couldn't be finished. There were also a large number of workers gathered at the port. Jonny stood in the most core position, waving his fist, leading the workers to protest the dock management company's decision!
In the manager's office of the dock management company, many merchants and captains were negotiating with the manager.
Some people hope that the manager can arrange for their goods to be loaded onto the ship as soon as possible, and warn the manager that if they cause the goods not to be sent out in time because of them, causing claims, they will sue the dock management company.
There are also captains who are asking the manager to arrange for people to unload the goods as soon as possible. They have no plan to stay here for a long time, and even if they are floating on the sea or the dock, they need huge usage costs every day!
The manager's office is full of people, and his brain is about to explode!
But apart from saying "I will arrange it as soon as possible," he has no other good way!
He has manually bought some workers. These workers are willing to cooperate with him to continue working, but the dock that needs more than 10,000 people to maintain normal operation, even if his bribery has an effect, there are hundreds, or even one or two thousand people still working, it is completely impossible to take care of!
There is gunfire in the city, and there are people on strike at the dock. New Jincheng is completely chaotic!
