Chapter 291: Nightmare In A Broad Daylight
Hearing the news from his second grandfather, Ryan just remembered his grandfather's investigation in the rubble. There must be something valuable in the ruins, otherwise how could the elders want to leave the house?
"Okay, I understand. You don't need to worry about me, I'm fine here," Ryan said with a smile. "In fact, you have to be careful since you are no longer young."
"Hahaha how could you say that about me. We are old, but who can refuse us? Ha ha ha!"
The second grandfather was in a good mood, his investigation into the first ruins had already given him a lot of valuables so he couldn't wait to go to the next place. Then he briefly exchanged news with Ryan before hanging up the phone.
Still waiting for the taxi, Ryan did not realize that he had walked away from Avalerion University. When he hung up the phone, suddenly there was a very loud scream.
"Move outta the way!" The screaming was really loud, but it was followed by a car horn that never stopped.
"Crazy, that police car is so fast!" The people on the side of the road immediately stepped aside one by one.
The police car seemed to have lost control and could not slow down. In order to avoid a back-to-back collision with the car, it looked like the cop decided to swerve to the side of the road.
"WATCH OUT!"
The car was about to hit the crowds that were too late to get out of the way.
In an instant, the police car made a sharp turn and crashed into a traffic light's pole.
People around it immediately felt their legs go limp when they realized they were still alive.
Then, they went straight to the police car, trying to save anyone inside and see what was really going on.
However, unexpectedly the traffic light slowly began to make a creaking sound. The pole was about to collapse!
In an instant, it collapsed onto the road and closed it completely.
That loud sound made everyone on the sidewalk frightened.
Ryan was just as shocked by this incident. What was the cop doing? Did they fail to pass the driving license's exam?
However, the car suddenly got back on the road!
People quickly fled from the scene, they were afraid to become victims of the crazy cop.
Mia was seen inside the car, already shedding blood and cold sweat. Somehow, the car suddenly went out of control and the brakes didn't work. Luckily, she didn't run into anyone, but now the car was suddenly moving again.
"What's with this car!"
Mia really didn't have any idea about it. At first, the car was fine but suddenly she couldn't control it. It looked like this car was obeying someone else's orders and Mia couldn't do anything else. Seeing the car back on the side of the road, Mia could only close her eyes.
People on the sidewalk were panicking and ran in all directions. Mia tried to hit the brakes with all her might but nothing changed. At this time, the car was speeding along the side of the road.
Ryan watched the police car with super eyesight, he realized that Mia was driving the car.
Seeing her face, Ryan seemed to understand what had happened. Something must have happened to the car. There was no way someone with such a strong sense of justice like Mia would go crazy like that.
Mia's car was driving on the side of the road with speeds reaching 50 km/hour. At this time, a child was seen playing without knowing that a car was coming his way.
"Watch out!"
When the mother realized the commotion that was going on, she automatically ran towards her child. The surrounding people were immediately shocked when they realized what had happened. Instead of helping, they immediately ran to save themselves.
Mia was already scared, cold sweat had flooded her back. She tried to change her direction but it's all useless, the car would hit the little boy!
Mia had given up. Her career as a policewoman would definitely end if she were to run over and kill the little boy. Not only that, she would also be jailed because of this incident.
"Run!"
"Oi son, run!"
Finally, the people running away noticed the little boy. But it was too late, their position was too far away and the mother of the little boy was being held back by people running around her.
Hearing the warning and seeing people running, the child innocently turned his head towards the car that was very close to him. Instead of running, the little boy cried and sat on the ground!
"My child...!"
The mother was about to pass out in the crowd. The distance between the child and the car was no more than 1 meter. The little boy would lose his life only in a matter of seconds.
Mia was still trying to hit the brakes or change the lane of her car, but it's all useless. Seeing the little boy sitting crying, she could only surrender.
It's over!
Everything's over!
Mia shut her eyes tight and the people had prepared for the worst. But at this time, someone was suddenly standing in front of the little boy!
Ryan stood straight in front of the crying child, he then stretched his hands forward.
"What is that person doing?"
People were at their wits end, it's useless for that man to do that because they would be crushed!
Mia was shocked when she realized Ryan's figure appeared in front of her, but it was too late. The car she drove was like a bull ready to attack whatever came in her way!
"No...!!"
The mother had fainted when she saw that the car was about to hit Ryan, people started to help her and had a moment of silence over her loss.
Everyone thought that Ryan's history was over, but there was absolutely no sound.
"What...?"
What happened? Everyone turned towards Ryan and their eyes widened when they saw what was really going on.
"Impossible!"
It seemed that even a hard slap on the face wouldn't bring them out of their daze since they saw a miracle that happened before them that day. Ryan managed to stop the police car with both hands!
Some of them thought that their eyes might've played some tricks with them but they were wrong. The car's wheels were still moving and the engine sound was getting louder. Ryan was like an immovable mountain, he managed to hold the police car! And finally, after being lifted slightly by Ryan, the wheel stopped turning and the engine gradually started to calm down.
Everyone stared confusedly at him, was he a superhero?
Though it wasn't a truck, Ryan still stopped a vehicle moving at a high speed. It would probably make more sense if the car were broken, but when it functioned well and was moving at high speed? Was that person still human?
Some people saw Ryan like a ghost, or maybe they were watching a film shoot? Since when did the police drive their cars that wild? Right, this must be a movie!
The mother who fainted earlier slowly regained her consciousness and was crying when she saw that her child was fine. She immediately ran to her son and saw Rya's figuren while the guy lifted the police car with both hands.
"I must be dreaming..." The mother fainted again.
Mia was at a loss for words, she was very surprised by Ryan's presence. Now, their two eyes met each other.
"Could you maybe turn off the car?" Ryan said.
Waking up from her daze, Mia immediately pulled the key. Finally, this incident ended without any casualties.
The crowd watching the scene had already started clapping.
"That person is so strong!"
"Hero, that person is a hero!"
Some of the women looked at Ryan in awe. "Do you think he is a superhero?"
"Hahaha take it easy, I've recorded this incident. Let the netizens decide!"
Everyone stared admiringly at Ryan. At this time, the mother of the child finally regained consciousness again. She then looked at Ryan and said thank you.
Ryan just waved his hand with a smile.
Mia then got out of her car, her clothes were wet with sweat. "I'm so lucky you came, otherwise that child's life would be lost."
The mother immediately cursed Mia for her dangerous driving.
"Calm down ma'am, calm down, this is not her fault. Everything was just an accident, so please carry on and forget about this incident, alright?" Ryan said.
"Fine then, I'm doing this because I owe you a debt of gratitude. But I remind you once again, the police should be there to protect and secure the people, not to kill them!"
Then she turned to Ryan with a smile. "Can I have your phone number? I will send you a gift for saving my son,"
