Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
As the middle-aged man had finished speaking, Borg said in a cold voice, “Let’s see who dares to make a move today.”
His words shocked everyone present, especially the few police officers who were closest to him.
It was possible to do so much in the United States. If you had money.
This was the most liberal and democratic place in the world. It was so liberal that people could do whatever they wanted.
But of course, that mainly applied to the rich.
As long as you had money, the whole country could be your playground. You could buy almost anything with money.
And this was particularly true about the mayor. He could buy anything with his fortune.
The poor were left to fester, ignored and pushed to one side. Whether they could survive depended on the mood of the police.
It was very likely that the police would shoot you with no warning and you’d die without knowing why.
Therefore, Borg’s words really scared them…
They were afraid that Borg might be a big shot.
When the mayor saw Borg, he was also shocked. Then, he looked at Borg. This person was a bit strange…
As the mayor was figuring out what kind of big shot Borg was, a policeman beside him whispered, “You are… Borg? Borg, is that you?”
“You know him?” the mayor asked.
When the mayor heard the policeman, he turned to him, hoping to get some information about this man.
After hearing the mayor’s question, the policeman immediately answered, “Yes! I know him, Mayor! His name is Borg, and he is an ordinary resident of our community!”
He especially emphasized the words ‘ordinary resident’, in order to reassure the mayor that Borg was just an ordinary person with no background and was not a big shot.
“Oh?”
Hearing this, the mayor did not completely believe him. Instead, he continued to look at Borg.
After confirming that he had never come into contact with this person before and that he was not a big shot, the mayor’s temper immediately flared up. Especially when he saw that his son had been beaten into such a state. He became even more furious!
“Beating up a teenager and attacking the classroom. I can arrest you for these two crimes!”
The mayor thought for a moment and assigned these crimes to Borg and Eric.
He was the mayor of Austin, Texas in the United States of America. For him to be able to achieve this position, it meant that he had a high number of financial resources.
It was indeed the case. Behind him was a huge multinational company. In Texas, he could be considered a star politician. In the future, he was very likely to become the governor of Texas.
Therefore, in Texas and Austin, people would try to curry favor with him.
He couldn’t believe how badly his son had been beaten up. If the police wanted to put these people in a prison cell for the rest of their lives and throw away the key, he would not have any objections.
“God! Son, son! What happened to you?”
“You old man! Your son was beaten up, and you’ve still done nothing? Hurry up and arrest them!”
Just as the mayor of Austin City was about to take action, a noble lady barged in.
As soon as she entered, she saw the boy lying on the ground, and her tears immediately fell.
After seeing that the boy’s face was bruised, she immediately stood up and stared fiercely at Borg and Eric.
These two people had beaten her son, and for this, she would not let them off so easily!
For beating up her precious son, she would make sure they were thrown in prison. She desperately wanted to vent her anger.
“You uneducated thing. No wonder your family produced such a useless son. He couldn’t even cope with an exam!”
After hearing the woman’s scolding, Eric was the first to stand up and shout at her.
When he said this, the mayor and his wife were stunned. They were also extremely embarrassed. They knew what had happened in the examination hall before they came. Now that they were put on the spot, how could they bear it!
“Do you think your daughter is a good person? Mind your own business! What does my son cheating have to do with your daughter, this b*tch?”
Once a woman got angry, it was very scary. If they hurt her son, then she would hurt them in return and scold their daughters.
“Pa!”
However, just as she was about to say something, Eric walked forward and gave her a hard slap on the face.
The slap was very loud and could be heard in the corridor.
“Arrest him!”
Seeing that his son and wife had been slapped, the mayor didn’t think twice. If he didn’t arrest both of them today, he wouldn’t be the mayor anymore! There was no need for him to continue in the officialdom…
When the policemen heard this, they all moved forward one after another, getting ready to rush up and arrest Borg and Eric
“Whoever dares to move, I’ll be the first to kill them!”
At that moment, Eric suddenly took out a gun from his pocket and aimed it at the mayor.
Seeing this, the policemen immediately took out their pistols and aimed them at Eric, Borg, and the rest…
The police didn’t expect that one of the men actually had a gun on his person!
Just as the policemen were about to shoot, Eric aimed his gun at the mayor’s wife.
Eric wasn’t afraid of these people. Not one bit.
If they hurt his daughter, he would definitely make them all go to hell!
This was the protection that Eric, as a father, could give Linda. If he couldn’t protect his own daughter, what kind of father would he be?
“Ahhhh!” the mayor’s wife screamed when the gun was pointed at her.
“Put down the gun!” the mayor shouted at the police when he saw that his wife’s life was in danger.
However, the police officers didn’t listen to his order. If the people on the opposite side didn’t face justice, they wouldn’t be at ease to put down their guns. Some of them were even getting ready to shoot!
Borg intervened at that point, and said, “Put down the guns!”
His voice was not loud, but it still made an impact. Everyone was shocked when they heard it!
For some reason, when they heard Borg’s words, it was as if they were hypnotized. They instantly began to put down their guns.
Eric also slowly put down his gun too.
In the United States, Borg’s ability to make the police put down their guns was indeed impressive. This was really not something that ordinary people could do. If the mayor was not here, these police officers would have started shooting the moment Eric pulled out his gun. They would not care whether there were hostages or whether one of the hostages was the mayor’s wife. As long as their lives were not threatened, it was fine!
