Chapter 47 Everything seems right

Chapter 47 Everything seems right
The money was wrapped in plastic film, one hundred thousand in a small package and one million in a large package. Although they were all old banknotes, they were still neatly ironed, making them very convenient and quick to carry.

Gao Yi saw it clearly, but unfortunately, he could only look and not take it.

Now I understand why Sean doesn't want a penny, because if he wants this money, he really needs to exchange his life for it.

"Prepare to retreat! Prepare to retreat!"

When the leader of the Sand Scorpions shouted to retreat, the gunfire had become much less frequent, to the point where people could risk rushing out, but bullets still fell all around from time to time.

The Sand Scorpion's men dispersed, forming a dumbbell shape. Most of them held guns to deal with threats at both ends of the street, while four people in the middle held guns and faced both sides of the street.

"Bring the body!"

The leader of the Sand Scorpions was still shouting. Two of them put away their guns and ran quickly towards their companion who had been shot in the face. After lifting the body, they threw it directly into the pickup truck bed that was full of money.

So far, two Sand Scorpions have died. After the two bodies were thrown into the truck bed, the two people in charge of collecting the bodies whispered, "Boss, that's enough!"

The leader of the Sand Scorpions had been holding his gun and firing from time to time. At this moment, he stood up and said, "Retreat!"

Xiao En took a deep breath and said to Gao Yi, "Follow me!"

Sean ran to the door with his back bent, then he saw Gao Yi, who was also bending over, running out and the first thing he did was to pick up a gun on the ground. He suddenly pushed Gao Yi from the side.

"You are crazy!"

Gao Yi gave up on picking up the gun. Sean pulled him by the arm and brought him to a position close to the wall on the side of the street.

Gao Yi was puzzled, and Sean whispered: "If you jumped out and planned to stop this team from leaving, would you shoot the ones who are threatening or the ones who are not threatening first?"

"Uh……"

The principle is simple, but Gao Yi feels uneasy because he doesn't even have a weapon in his hand.

Sean whispered again: "Even if you have a gun, can you shoot accurately?"

Gao Yi didn't hesitate any more and started running after Sean. He ran faster when Sean ran faster, and slower when Sean ran slower.

The people from the Sand Scorpion did not just get in their cars and run away. They only had one pickup truck, and at this moment there were a total of sixteen people slowly advancing around the pickup truck which was full of money.

For the first time, Gao Yi was able to observe a real battle, a street fight, in person.

Fortunately, this was a chaotic battle, and it was a chaotic battle after Suleimant's death. If Suleimant's men had focused all their efforts on dealing with the Sand Scorpion Mercenaries, then none of these people would have had a chance to leave.

But Francesca's men were trying to escape, so there was no need for them to fight to the end, while Suleimant's men were still in chaos and their attacks were not unified.

The leader of the Sand Scorpion was wearing a white shirt, a pair of NB sneakers, shorts, a black baseball cap on his head, and a bulletproof vest over the white shirt. He didn't look very serious, but he was very capable in fighting.

The other people were also dressed in a variety of colors, wearing all kinds of clothes. The only thing they had in common was that everyone had bulletproof vests and most of them wore helmets.

I don’t know if the Sand Scorpion people dress like this for camouflage or because they are in a hurry.

Sporadic attacks could not stop the Sand Scorpion from breaking out and evacuating. Even if someone came out and fired a shot, he would be immediately pushed back by the Sand Scorpion's men.

Overall, the evacuation went smoothly.

Gao Yi also noticed one thing, that is, the police car that appeared at the beginning is now gone.

All the police cars had left. The two warring parties, as well as the Sand Scorpion Mercenaries who were trying to take advantage of the situation, all tacitly agreed not to attack the police cars, and the police did not choose to join any side. As soon as the melee broke out and it was confirmed that Suleimant was dead, the police left quickly.

After all, Suleimante is dead, and it is still unknown who will be the next underground king of Mexicali. The police can just sit on the mountain and watch the fight, and then come out and beat the losing side.

They evacuated safely and smoothly to the place where Suleimant's men had blocked the road with cars, but the road had been cleared and there were a few corpses lying on the ground.

Gao Yi followed for a few hundred meters. Although there were occasional cold gunshots, just like what Sean said, those who jumped out to shoot did not shoot at him and Sean.

After all, the threat level is much lower. As for revenge, it first depends on whether Suleimant's men have the intention. Then, even if someone really intends to avenge Suleimant, they can't figure out the identity of the Sand Scorpion Mercenaries.

Calling a group of people to confuse the water so that Suleimant's Haqita group would not know who the main opponent is, and then escaping in the chaos. This approach is not particularly clever, but it must require a very good understanding of the situation in Mexicali.

The leader of the Sand Scorpions raised his hand and shouted, "Prepare the vehicles, and disengage..."

Suddenly a black ball was thrown out on the street and exploded with a loud bang the moment it hit the asphalt road.

"Grenade!"

They thought everything was alright and they could evacuate safely, but suddenly several people wrapped in black appeared from the alleys on both sides of the seemingly calm street.

Xiao En pulled Gao Yi and whispered, "Get down!"

Gao Yi fell to the ground without hesitation.

First, eight people appeared along both sides of the street. They threw out a dozen grenades and then opened fire at the Sand Scorpion people.

He was wearing a black combat uniform, a black helmet, a black combat vest, a black scarf on his face, and a wide variety of equipment. He looked like the kind of elite soldier you would only see in movies.

The Sand Scorpion's people did not let down their guard, and this special forces team dressed all in black achieved the effect of surprise. For a moment, people from both sides fell to the ground one after another.

The leader of the Sand Scorpions raised his gun and fired continuously. Then he suddenly staggered and fell to the ground, about four meters away from Gao Yi.

But soon, the leader of the Sand Scorpions climbed up from the ground. He knelt on one knee, raised his gun with one hand, took a grenade from his chest with his left hand, threw it from bottom to top, and shouted, "Falcon!"

It seemed that the two sides were about to clash head-on at close range. Gao Yi just didn't know why those ambushing black troops didn't use more brutal means, but just suddenly jumped out and opened fire.

A man named Falcon shouted, and four people followed behind him and began to run quickly along one side of the street. At the same time, a group of people suddenly appeared in the alley on the opposite side of the street. The two groups were almost face to face and engaged in a fierce shootout at a distance of less than 30 meters.

Members of both sides fell to the ground almost at the same time, and both sides fought back and forth, with neither side taking advantage. Experts see the doorway, while laymen see the excitement. Gao Yi had no idea what everything that was happening before his eyes meant.

I don't know what the tactics are, nor do I know what the point of this fight is. Anyway, I just watched the two groups collide with each other and shoot at each other. The dead ones didn't move at all, and the injured started to twist on the ground, or lay on the ground and continued to shoot.

“They want money!”

Sean made a judgment. He grabbed Gao Yi's arm and said nervously, "Suleimant's men have decided to take the money. We have to go. Follow me and get ready... to run!"

Gao Yi wanted to run forward, but he was surprised to find that Sean stood up and ran backwards.

I just ran along the road, and now I have to go back.

Gao Yi was completely confused, but since Sean was pulling him to run, it would be right for him to follow him.

Now Gao Yi and Sean are near the wall of the building at the other end of the barbed wire, but after running, Gao Yi is surprised to find that Sean is actually going to cross the open street diagonally.

Sean was running quite fast. He had let go of Gao Yi's arm and was running left and right on the not-so-wide street.

Gao Yi was a little far away from Sean. The two rushed across the street and came to a closed store door. Sean opened the door and used his body to block the glass door from rebounding and closing. After waiting for Gao Yi to enter, he immediately stepped aside and said, "Follow me!"

Leaving behind the Sand Scorpion Mercenaries who were engaged in a fierce battle, he easily left the most intense battlefield with almost no obstacles.

This is a women's clothing store. There is a corpse in the store with a rifle in his hand, and a terrified woman is huddled in the corner next to him.

Xiao En ignored the frightened woman. He just took a quick glance, then pointed at the bloodstains on the ground and said to Gao Yi, "Follow me."

Gao Yi really couldn't understand what Sean meant by this action.

"What do you mean?"

Sean whispered, "Francesca's men are ambushing here. There were two people here just now, but now there is only one body, and an injured person ran away, so there must be a back door here."

Sean walked in front, pushed open a closed wooden door, passed a somewhat messy bedroom, crossed a short narrow corridor, passed a small and clean kitchen, and then a metal door appeared in front.

Walking out of the iron door, I saw a dead body lying face down in the alley.

Sean exhaled, then he nodded and said, "Yes, it's here, let's go!"

The two men walked through the maze-like alleys. As the gunshots became weaker and weaker, Gao Yi finally couldn't help but ask, "Did you arrange this in advance? How did you know there was a back door and a way out?"

Sean pointed to his eyes and said, "I don't know, but I will observe. This is one of the first locations to launch an attack. It must be Francesca's people. Francesca has controlled this city for a long time. His people are of course familiar with the terrain. It is normal that they have been running this store in secret. Now, Francesca's people must be in a hurry to withdraw. Then it is of course no problem for us to follow their path. After all, we are not Francesca's enemies."

That's the truth, it's very simple, but it seems really difficult to make these judgments in the chaos of a battle.

Sean stopped, turned around, looked around, and said, "The situation has changed now. We just need to leave the center of the battlefield. No one will pay attention to us, and no one will care about us, so let's wait here for a while."

Gao Yi whispered, "But if we abandon the Sand Scorpion and run away like this, aren't you afraid that the Sand Scorpion's people will kill us when we turn around and run?"

"What's the point of us staying?"

"Uh, no..."

"Then there will be no problem for us to leave."

"But the Sand Scorpion is here because of you."

"I said there was $10 million, here it is, I said they needed to rob it, they already robbed it, I didn't lie to them, I didn't cheat them, I'm not even their employer, so they probably won't shoot me."

Gao Yi was stunned for a moment, and said: "It's highly likely that even you are not sure."

Sean nodded and said, "There is no such thing as a 100% certainty in the world. It's good enough if the probability is high enough. Well, I have taught you another valuable lesson. Now..."

Spreading his hands, Sean said calmly: "We are safe."

Something seems wrong, but when you think about it, everything seems right.

Gao Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "I just want to know what will happen to the sand scorpions? Will they all die here?"

Sean shook his head and said, "I don't know. If they are willing to give up 10 million, then they can definitely evacuate. If they are unwilling to give up, it depends on who is more powerful. Suleimant's special forces did not launch an attack at the first time, which means that their commander did not intend to bury Suleimant with him, but wanted to grab the money in the end, so they suddenly appeared at the end."

After that, Sean smiled at Gao Yi and said, "Anyway, we are just bystanders in this melee. The outcome has nothing to do with me, but maybe the Sand Scorpion will have to ask me for help later. If that's the case..."

"What will happen?"

Sean smiled and said, "I will act as a middleman and help Sand Scorpion contact someone who can save them. Maybe I can even get a thank-you fee. In this way, Sand Scorpion will have to thank me, the people from the Mexicali Police Department will have to thank me, Francesca will have to thank me, and everyone except Suleimante will have to thank me."

Gao Yi didn't understand the key to this, but after he sorted it out carefully, he suddenly said: "Now the only ones who can save the sand scorpion are the police!"

Sean nodded and smiled, "Yes, Sand Scorpion took out several million to give to the new police chief, and the new police chief sent his men to pick up the ready-made merit. Everyone benefits, so why not?"

Gao Yi understood, he understood.

"You have so many ideas. I really admire that you can think of so many things, but why don't we continue running instead of staying here?"

Sean looked at his watch and said, "I'm waiting for the Sand Scorpion to ask for help. If they really ask me for help, I have to be a witness. You know, it's very common for gangs to rob each other, and my identity and status are enough to be an important middleman. As long as I'm here, I can ensure that this transaction goes smoothly."

At this time, Sean's phone rang. He shrugged and said, "It's Sand Scorpion calling. Everything is as I expected."

Sean answered the phone, and then he quickly said, "I can ask the Mexicali police to help you. You pay the police five million. Do you agree? If you agree, I will act as a middleman to ensure that the Mexicali police will not engage in corruption."

After a few words, Sean hung up the phone, and then he said to Gao Yi: "Look, in the hands of an excellent bee, things are so simple. Now do you understand my value? Join the garden, I will serve you exclusively, would you consider it?"
