Chapter 1693: Creating Panic
Joyce listened and just smiled, neither denying nor confirming it.
At that moment, a special police officer exclaimed in shock, “It seems tobe true! But why would the warlord's generalissimo appear in Khebury?She should be in the Capital.”
The leading special police officer looked at Joyce with suspicion, notdaring to admit it, but also not daring to deny it. If she truly was thegeneralissimo, they couldn't afford to be disrespectful or negligent.Reuben lifted Kiki out from under the table and walked to Joyce's side,saying, "You didn't see wrong. She is the warlord's generalissimo. Justthink about it, besides her, who in Pascaylia could have suchextraordinary marksmanship?"
He glared at the leading special police officer and said, "Return thegeneralissimo's personal firearms to her!"
The leading special police officer hesitated.
If they didn't return them, they might face charges.
If they returned them, they might be deemed negligent.
Since Joyce couldn't hide her identity any longer, she took out heridentification from her pocket and presented it to the special policeofficer in front of her, the shining golden seven-pointed star blinding tothe eye.
The leading special police officer quickly saluted respectfully,"Generalissimo, I offended earlier."
He quickly signaled to the side.
The other special police officers promptly returned Joyce's gun andspinning dart with both hands.
Joyce didn't refuse and accepted the self-defense items, putting themaway by herself.
Then she calmly spoke, “I will go to the police station to make astatement and then I'll leave.”
“Thank you for your cooperation. We can also send someone to yourplace to record the statement and have you sign it," the leading specialpolice officer respectfully suggested.
“It's fine. I'll make the trip. No need to trouble anyone," Joyce wavedher hand.
“I'll go with her,” Reuben leaned over. “I had the clearest view of theentire process.”
The others in the ice cream shop whispered among themselves. "So, itwas the generalissimo who happened to be present. No wonder hermarksmanship was so incredible. No wonder she was so calm.”
“Yes, no wonder she refused to put down her gun when the little girlwas held hostage. She had absolute confidence in her marksmanship.She almost ruined everything. The generalissimo's child is no lessprecious than hers. Shame on her."
“I didn't know...," the little girl's mother lowered her head in shame anddared not look up in front of everyone's eyes.
With the help of others, the mother of the little boy, who had beenunconscious, had already regained consciousness. She still had weaklegs and knelt on the ground, holding her child. She heard the wholeprocess and repeatedly expressed her gratitude to Joyce.
Joyce turned her head and walked over, supporting the woman bybending down. "No need to thank me. My child was also present. It wasmy duty to protect everyone from danger.”
Kiki slid down from Reuben's arms at this moment and pounced directlyat Anderson.
"Andres, I was so scared,” she cried, her body trembling and tearsflowing. She was still shaken and terrified.
Anderson watched as Kiki was about to throw herself into her arms andquickly moved aside. Kiki missed and almost fell to the ground, butReuben caught her.
Kiki grabbed Anderson's arm. "Andres, weren't you scared either?"Anderson had experienced something more terrifying and horrifying,being kidnapped, isolated and helpless, almost being thrown off therooftop of a parking lot by that evil woman, his life hanging by a thread.That was true fear. Now, with his mother by his side, facing thecriminals, he didn't feel scared at all.
"What is there to be scared of! Coward!" Anderson pouted, not wantingto pay attention to Kiki.
Reuben's admiring gaze stayed on Anderson. "Your name is Andres?"He had seen the whole process clearly. Although Anderson hid behindJoyce, his young face showed no signs of fear. For a four-year-old childto remain so calm was truly remarkable.
Anderson nodded.
"Young man, you were calm in the face of danger. You're amazing.You've truly inherited your mother's spirit," Reuben praised.
Anderson shrugged and didn't pay any further attention to them. Hepushed Kiki away and ran to Joyce's side. "Mommy, when are we goingback?"
Joyce ruffled Anderson's hair. "Did Andres get scared? It's all over now.We can't leave yet. Mommy needs to go to the police station to give astatement. We can leave once it's done.”
When everything was over, she would have time to comfort Anderson.Anderson shook his head. "I'm not scared with Mommy around.”
At this time, several police carsand ambulances had already parked infront of the ice cream shop.
The special police officers had already taken the criminals into custodyand were now in charge of evacuating the others. The injuredindividuals were all being taken into the ambulances.
The leading special police officer approached Joyce, bowingrespectfully. "Generalissimo, please come with us. I apologize for anyoffense caused.”
Joyce, along with Anderson, Reuben, and an employee from the icecream shop, followed the police cars to Division Four.
On the way, Joyce dialed Darrin's number.
"Hello, something happened in the city today. I'm going to DivisionFour. You should come too."
Darrin’s voice on the phone sounded somewhat shocked. “I just heardthe news report. There was a shooting incident in the city center, andthe jewelry store was robbed. Could it be... related to you? Did you firethe gun?"
Joyce replied, "Yes, it was me. Unfortunately, I ran into it, buteverything has been resolved. Don't worry."
Darrin blamed himself, “It's my fault. I didn't follow you today, andsomething happened. I was careless.”
“It's okay. I can handle it. Don't blame yourself," Joyce pondered for amoment. "I just replace it strange. Khebury hasn't had such a viciousincident of street robbery in many years. And the criminals had threeguns, which is unusual. I have a feeling that it's not just a regularcriminal case. Investigate secretly.”
"Alright, Generalissimo, I'll be there right away," Darrin said beforehanging up the phone.
Joyce and Anderson rode in one car, while the others were not in thecar. That's why she had asked Darrin to investigate. Those maskedmen made her feel uneasy.
There were so many places in Khebury that could be robbed, so whydid they choose a crowded area? Even if she hadn't taken action, thepolice would have arrived quickly. Moreover, the masked menspecifically targeted children, as if they wanted to make the situationworse.
She had a strange feeling that this group of people wasn't just aftermoney; they wanted to create chaos and panic in Khebury.
