Chapter 376 Evacuation
Chapter 376 Evacuation
"That bastard!" Joseph clamped his jaw tightly.
He had been played by Julian once again.
He was infuriated when he found the tracker on Julian, however, the real tracker was hidden in the organs of the corpse.
That bastard Julian Shaw... his acting was superb!
And Serenity!
That b*tch! 1
Joseph gritted his teeth as he thought of her pitiful expression when she cried.
When he saw her crying, he actually felt a little sympathetic deep down.
And the result? She was in fact supporting the act.
"Boss, what should we do now?" Rainn asked cautiously.
Joseph ordered with an obscure look, "What else can w e do? Our location has been exposed. Now hurry up and cascade the order, we'll evacuate immediately."
In less than an hour after Joseph's instructions, everyone was already evacuating in an orderly manner. Suddenly, a few aircrafts whizzed down from the sky, then there was a series of bombardments.
Joseph’s eyes changed.
"Evacuate! Faster, move your ass!" he shouted in a frenzy, the people on the island sped up in a panic.
While arranging the retreat, Joseph made a call furiously.
"Edward, shouldn't you be explaining what the jets are about? After all, we're the ones who have been
running all the dirty errands for you all these years. I thought we had a deal..."
Before Joseph could finish his sentence, Edward's voice had already come through the phone. "Joe, that equipment of yours was provided by me without a single penny being charged. Don't you feel me? I can’t talk much now, so just focus on the evacuation at once. The jets are only dropping it on the perimeter defense systems, so they shouldn't be able to hurt you at least for now. If you wish to know the whole story, just go online and check out the latest trending news! That's it for now. I have tons of crap to deal with here!"
Edward hung up the phone.
Joseph rushed towards the escape route while going online to watch the trending news mentioned by Edward.
As soon as he got the chance to listen to the news, he was almost murdered from the inside by his own wrath.
At that moment, the headlines across the whole internet was about a video.
And the title of the video was
With careful planning, three important hostages were rescued in one go.
And in that video, there was not only footage of George Wright and the others saving people, but also the landmark and appearance of the island.
And the thing that almost made him gut himself on the spot was
The anchorwoman in the video reported, "According t o investigations, the island is the base camp of an organization. The organization abducted three hostages of great importance not long ago. It had also been confirmed that the plane incident was one of their doings too. Ever since the incident, all the members of the team escaped custody under the guidance of George and Oliver Wright. Both of them went into hiding in order to rescue the hostages. After three days of searching, they managed to pinpoint the location of the organization, infiltrate it, and rescue all the hostages. Below is the footage of the crossfire between the two sides." 1
"It’s been reported that the organization is located close to our neighboring countries. If it weren't for the team finding the base camp, it’s been predicted that all surrounding areas might be threatened by the organization too. After the team found the base, they notified the overseas alliance of its location. We believe that they'll be able to exterminate the
organization.”
The anchorwoman was still explaining the details.
While Joseph's expression turned bleak.
George and Oliver Wright did not seem to be the canny type. It was Julian Shaw, it must be Julian Shaw again.
The incident was trending all over the internet within an hour after they escaped. There must be an alliance of forces behind this.
A video, plus a commentary. With that, they had been crowned directly as the mastermind behind all the evil deeds.
They even announced the location of the island. 1
This time, the overseas alliance had to destroy the island as soon as possible.
If it were to be discovered by another party, that the equipment on the island was the latest technology of the overseas alliance, it would tie them directly to the abduction of the hostages.
That was a grave scandal that no institution would admit.
This location could only be sacrificed and destroyed.
In other words!
That bastard Julian Shaw, with a video and a commentary, got the overseas alliance to destroy this secret base that they had paid and contributed to.
Joseph gave it a thought and then could not help but burst into laughter.
"Boss, have you gone mad?” Rainn stared at Joseph anxiously.
Joseph pulled a long face and hit Rainn on the head with his knuckle, "What are you talking about?"
“Then why were you laughing, boss?" Rainn asked with an innocent look.
Joseph raised his brows, "Nothing, I was just thinking, the Shaws' genes are just awesome. Julian is really not an easy target to bring down.”
Rainn was left speechless.
‘Boss, both of you are rivals now.'
What was with the sudden pride?
"How about the personnel evacuation arrangements?" Joseph asked.
"It's done. The elderly and children will go first, then the women, and lastly the men." Rainn reported, "Boss, should you go first too?" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Joseph shook his head, "I'll go last. Remember to maintain the order, and if anyone dares to violate it, shoot on site."
"Yes sir." Rainn cascaded the order immediately.
Everything was in order at the beginning, until a sharp voice pierced through the crowd.
"What are you doing? Do you know who I am?" Charlotte yelled at someone maintaining the order with her hands akimbo, "I'm Joseph's wife! We’re evacuating now and you want me to wait in\ queue?"
"Madam. This is a rule set by the boss. The elderly and children are our top priority at all times, and women come next. There aren't many elderly and children, Madam, please wait for a bit and you'll get there in no time," the person explained patiently.
"So what you mean is that I still need to queue? The elderly and children first? I've never heard of such an absurd rule. Let me tell you, your status decides everything in this world. This first ship. This first ship, it looks obviously safer and more comfortable. Why is it saved for the old and the incapable! You tell those people to get off the ship. I demand to be the first to board the ship. Nobody should board it before I do." Charlotte ordered peremptorily. 2
"But..." The person in charge of the order hesitated.
Charlotte snorted and boarded the first ship, which was full of elderly and children. She then started to drive people off the ship.
"Get off! Get off! All of you get off!" Charlotte pushed a child directly into the ocean.
An old man was nervously trying to hold on to the child, but Charlotte kicked the man and drove the two into the sea. 1
On the coast, a commotion arose.
