I Transmigrate as a Single Mother of the Three Antagonists - Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Desolate City

After the unrest in the prison was suppressed, Jin Yang rushed to the neighboring city and handed all matters regarding the prison in S City to Mayor Shen.

Having received this important task, Mayor Shen naturally wanted to make a good impression. He hurriedly accepted the order and said, “Sir, don’t worry. I will definitely reorganize the various departments in the prison. Today’s incident will never happen again…”

Jin Yang nodded and left with a cold and indifferent gaze. Mayor Shen watched as his figure disappeared from the prison and hurriedly urged his subordinates to tabulate the prison name list.

It would take some time to sort out the information on the hundreds of prisoners. Mayor Shen sat in the warden’s office and waited for the news. Soon, a police officer ran in with a list of names. “Mayor, these are the names of the prisoners who escaped.”

“There were about a dozen, but their offences were relatively minor. They won’t be too dangerous to society.”

Mayor Shen flipped through the list. When he heard the police officer’s report, he immediately regarded him with a serious expression, “So what if they are not murderers? We don’t need to re-capture them then? These people escaped from prison! Wake up your idea!”

“Even if they only had one more day to serve before their release, you have to arrest them and make them serve out their last day!”

Mayor Shen issued his orders and the police officers quickly complied and went to search for them.

Mayor Shen casually spread out the stack of information on the escaped prisoners on the office table. Yu Ge’s picture and information were in that stack.

…

In the neighboring city, Qiu Tong and Song Yan rushed to their destination and found their surroundings desolate.

In the middle of the street were overturned baskets of rice and flour, as well as torn clothes and fabric. There were a few bloodstains in front of the trash can at the corner of the street. It was obvious that this place had been attacked and plundered by hooligans. The glass windows of the surrounding residential buildings and shops were already shattered, and none of the households were lit. Their doors and windows were tightly shut.

Qiu Tong and the others’ footsteps were extremely light, but they sounded especially crisp and clear in this deathly silent environment.

The children felt rather stifled. They held each other’s hands and followed closely behind Qiu Tong, not daring to make a sound.

“Hello, is anyone here?”

“We came from S City to help you…”

Song Yan’s subordinates knocked on the doors of several residents, but there was no response.

Suddenly, a figure popped out of the window of a dilapidated building. The thin, sallow-faced man stared warily at Qiu Tong and the others. He waved his hand and urged them, “Leave quickly. They’ve already plundered our place. As long as you hide, you won’t be beaten and robbed again!”

“Don’t anger them. When they come back…”

“I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die by their guns! Please stop meddling in other people’s business!”

The man seemed to have thought of something terrifying. He slammed the door shut in fear and used a wooden block to block his door.

Qiu Tong frowned and wanted to go forward to ask where the hooligans were gathered, but she could not get an answer no matter how hard she tried.

She shook her head at Song Yan and sighed. “Looks like they are too scared of the hooligans. They only want to hide and don’t dare to resist. We have to rely on ourselves to find their gathering place…”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just as Song Yan was about to reply, several gunshots rang out. Qiu Tong and Song Yan looked at each other before rushing in the direction of the noise.
