Anthea couldn't hear clearly what they were talking about on the phone, but she could also feel that something was wrong.
After hanging up the phone, she asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
Adam frowned and looked at her. He seemed to have made a decision quickly and said briefly, "Sit down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the jeep accelerated all of a sudden.
Anthea was thrown forward by the force of inertia. Fortunately, she was wearing a safety belt. Otherwise, she would have smashed the windshield and flown out of the jeep. The accelerator was now pressed to the bottom by Adam. The jeep drifted at a crossroad, turned around, and drove away rapidly.
Looking at the street scenes passing by on both sides, Anthea was in a daze. The car-racing scenes that only appeared in Hollywood movies emerged in her mind. Her face turned pale, and she silently raised her hand to grab the armrest of the jeep roof.
When the jeep drove to a park, a screeching sound of hard brakes arose.
The tires left a trace on the ground because the jeep was gliding before it stopped. Anthea, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was still in shock. Before she could figure out the situation, she saw that Adam had already unfastened his seat belt, taken out a pair of handcuffs, and inserted them into the waist belt.
It was clear that he was carrying out a mission!
Only then did Anthea realize that there must be a mission designated to Adam on the phone just now. As there was no time to be wasted, Adam directly drove her here.
Carter, who had been waiting for a long time, came over to them immediately. When he saw Anthea, he was slightly stunned, but quickly reported seriously. "Captain Chin!"
"How's the situation?"
"At present, he is still lurking in the park. It might be difficult to arrest him, and he has a weapon with him!"
Adam looked at the park, while his eyes were sharp and piercing. "There are a great many people here, and they are lacking in the awareness of danger. We must not cause any chaos, unnecessary panic or injury in the crowd. The action strategies remain the same. Let's split up, search him out, and arrest him when the chances are good!"
"Yes, sir!" Carter replied firmly.
Adam had already jumped out of the jeep. Before he left, he turned around and looked at Anthea, saying, "Wait for me inside the jeep."
Anthea was too scared to breathe because of the serious atmosphere surrounding the two military officers. Before she could react, Adam and Carter had already disappeared in the park.
At this time, it was getting late. There were a lot of people walking at the square near the entrance of the park. Groups of middle-aged women were dancing at the square as a sort of physical exercise. Some children were playing roller skates.
Inside the jeep, Anthea folded her hands as if they were a pair of binoculars.
However, it was still too far away for Anthea to see Adam clearly, not to mention that it was already night time. Furthermore, there were just too many people in the park. Anthea really wanted to see Adam's tall and strong figure, but it was difficult. When she thought of what Carter had said earlier, that the suspect had a weapon with him, she realized this mission was a dangerous one...
Anthea was thus worried. She jumped out of the jeep and ran into the park.
After entering the park, Anthea finally was able to find Adam near the rockwork artificial hill. Before
Anthea could calm herself down, she saw that Adam suddenly sprang up and ran extremely fast towards a sneaky man in front of him.
That man's reaction was also very fast. Before he was pushed over, he agilely dodged Adam's strike in time. It seemed that he was also very skillful at combating. In an instant, he and Adam were grappling with each other.
Anthea was scared out of her wits. The scenes before her eyes had been changing too quickly.
Adam obviously had the upper hand. The man who had already fallen to the ground suddenly took out a dagger and waved it wildly in the air. The glints of the dagger were almost dazzling.
In the face of the man's dagger, Adam still looked calm. He reached out his hand without fear, accurately grabbed the man's wrist, and twisted it downward. When he was about to take the knife away, a child who was blowing bubbles absentmindedly got close to them.
The man rushed towards the child with the dagger in his hand. Adam tried to stop him.
