Chapter 711

The team noted the license plate numbers and sent people to track the cars closely.Simon strode over and said, “We must save the hostages! They cannot be harmed in any way!”The team leader nodded gravely. “Yes, sir!”Simon returned to his car. Even until now, what was happening had not fully set in yet. There was a sense of surrealism.A gunfight broke out in the city he was overseeing, and important individuals were taken hostage. How was he supposed to explain this to headquarters?Just as he was mulling it over, there was news from the interrogation of a suspect who had surrendered.It was not their first operation. They had joined a faction with over a thousand members more than half a month ago and worked for it for more than half a month. During that time, they engaged in fights and shootings and traded a large quantity of contraband.Simon was dumbfounded when he heard this.Half a month! Furthermore, each faction had over a thousand members. Two such factions would am

Thump!Simon slumped on the chair, muttering, “How could this be?”How could he be the root of this problem?Back then, when everyone came to demand their wages, if he had not taken such a hard stance and taken money from the Quinns, would things not have escalated to this point today?Simon felt horrible. He had done it to save the Quinn family’s dignity and money but caused greater humiliation instead. Furthermore, the family was likely to suffer even greater financial losses.Instead of gaining anything, he had created a disaster!Simon took a deep breath and asked, “Have the hostages been rescued?”“We’re still in the midst of negotiation.”Although several criminals were surrounded, since they had hostages, the team did not dare to act rashly. They were negotiating to see if they could persuade the criminals to release the hostages first.The gunfight and hostage incident caused a huge uproar. Everyone in Breeze City knew about it, including the leaders of several faction

Simon immediately rushed to the hospital and saw the people hospitalized with serious injuries.After falling from a speeding car and rolling on the ground for a distance before stopping, the hostages suffered multiple fractures all over their bodies, and some even had concussions.The doctor said that it would take at least a month for them to be discharged.Simon’s expression darkened as he glared at Justin. “Is that how you do your job? I told you to protect them. How could you let them get hurt?”The director felt wronged. He had already complied with all the demands of the criminals. He just did not expect them to throw the hostages from the car. However, he could not defend himself. Trying to explain it now would only cause Simon to get angrier.Simon took a deep breath to calm himself. He could not change what had already happened, so scolding Justin was completely meaningless.The most important thing now was to resolve this situation.He ordered the hospital to bring in

Simon was stunned. It was his first time working so late. Just as he wanted to go back and rest, he saw the many messages on his phone.They were all from the headquarters, asking him about the situation.Simon instantly realized that he could not rest yet. He still had to write reports and a self-reflection paper, and by the time he was done, it was already 7 in the morning.He felt dizzy. This was his first time pulling an all-nighter. He felt like his body was not his own. His heart rate was abnormally fast, and he seemed to be able to hear his pounding heartbeat.“Does pulling an all-nighter always feel so awful?” He was slightly shocked.Simon had someone prepare breakfast for him while he reported the situation to headquarters.“According to the information we have now, the gunfight did happen and erupted from client disputes between two factions. I’m investigating their backing forces now. We’ll soon have the results. As for the young men who came to visit and learn...”S

“They also have reinforcements. It’s not just the two factions who have armed forces. There are even more factions we don’t know about! They’re just the tip of the iceberg! We need reinforcements!”What they were facing was not as simple as two factions. It involved armed groups. A stronger team was needed to handle this problem.The call ended, but Simon was still frozen with his phone in his hand. Although the call was not long, the information it provided was overwhelming.The two factions were not small fries and had foreign support.Furthermore, there were not just two factions in Breeze City.Simon slowly lowered his phone. He had not rested for a full day and night, but now, all his drowsiness was gone. His appetite that had come with his good mood was also completely gone.The breakfast was exquisite and nutritious, but neither did he touch it nor did he want to anymore.Trouble had arrived, and it was far bigger and more unexpected than he had imagined!He quickly call

At 10 a.m., Simon called the South Regent again.The call connected quickly, and the South Regent asked, “Who is this?”Simon’s expression darkened. The South Regent must have known that it was him but was feigning ignorance. Did he think that Simon was easy to mess with?Simon took a deep breath. “It’s me, Simon Quinn.”“Oh, it’s you, boss.” The South Regent emphasized the word ‘boss’, but there was no hint of respect in his tone. “Do you need something from me?”Simon asked in a low voice, “There are armed individuals in Breeze City. Does this have anything to do with you?”The South Regent said, “You can’t make such accusations without evidence. Do you have any proof?”The matter was indeed related to him. After all, he was the first to open Breeze City’s market. The other factions only got involved later.After repeated failures against Ethan, the South Regent became extremely cautious, making sure that Simon could not find any evidence against him.He had even prepared ex

Soon, the South Regent’s company was sealed. The official reason was that the company had foreign transactions, so their funds were frozen, and their employees were detained.When Simon received the news, he was very satisfied with the swift action. He could already imagine the South Regent frantically calling to apologize and beg for mercy, hoping to have his company returned to him.However, even after half an hour, his phone did not ring.Simon frowned slightly. Was the South Regent unaware of what happened?In reality, the South Regent already knew that his company had been shut down, but he was not worried.When he started the company, he had discussed it with Simon and established it on the condition that the latter assigned someone to oversee it. Later, he found Stephen and sold all his shares to Stephen. The South Regent was no longer the company’s boss. He was merely managing it temporarily on Stephen’s behalf.In other words, the company Simon had just shut down did not

“You know exactly what I’m talking about,” Simon said through gritted teeth.“Wait a moment.” The South Regent picked up a piece of paper from the side and said, “‘Simon Quinn discovers explosives in a company and shuts it down, but when he finds out that it was his son’s company, he tries to undo it’. Were you referring to that?”The explosion brought down an entire office building. It was a major event.The South Regent already planned how to use this incident to frame his narrative.The building belonged to Stephen. When someone reported explosives inside, Simon shut the company down and froze its assets. However, after Simon found out that it was his son’s company, he tried to undo his actions and cover it all up.If this news was spread, it would undoubtedly cause a massive stir online.Could explosives be tolerated just because it was his son’s company? After finding out that it was a family asset, he immediately tried to lift the lockdown on the company.The public uproar

Simon also did not understand how things could have developed to this point. At first, it was just the river being polluted. Then, it was the food contamination and the collapse of the development zone.He originally thought that these issues would be easy to solve, but in just half a month, it escalated into a situation involving gunfights and foreign forces.“I’m dealing with it,” said Simon. “I’ll restore stability to Breeze City as soon as possible.”He did not need HQ to remind him of this. He was Simon Quinn, the head of the Quinns. It was already a failure on his part that Breeze City had deteriorated under his management.If he could not stabilize Breeze City. He would become a laughingstock in front of the whole world!The Quinn family’s dignity would be shattered! That was something that could not and should never happen.The call ended.Simon called the armed forces again and urged them to hurry. Every second of delay was a loss.He needed to resolve one issue before

However, Stephen guessed that Breeze City would have already stabilized under Simon’s management.After all, Simon was his father. Simon’s abilities were surely superior to his own. He also saw his grandfather show a smile of satisfaction earlier. Thus, Stephen did not think much of it.After he finished copying the family rules, he took the notebook and walked out of the room to let Harrison check it.When he reached the living room, he heard voices from inside.“Sir, I don’t think it’s a good idea to keep him locked up in the room. I’ve looked through his history,” a familiar voice said. Stephen recognized it as his current psychologist, Hugo Wood.“He’s experienced too many things that someone his age shouldn’t have faced. I suggest we let him go out for a walk.”Harrison replied, “And go where? A bar? Don’t forget his status. There are places where he can’t go.”Hugo said, “I’d like to take him to a support group where people gather and share their stories. It might help imp
