Chapter 216 Dad was shot

Several cars were parked not far from Central.

Because it was not far away, Bruce in the car could still hear the broadcast from the distant speakers.

The Bank of China installed loudspeakers on the roof of its Central Head Office to promote the event.

The leftist students were also noisy one after another, with loud slogans and unlimited passion.

But unfortunately, Bruce doesn't understand these "strange" languages ​​at all.

Chinese is really difficult.

When he first came to Hong Kong, Bruce was very interested in Chinese, but soon, this language, which is "the most difficult to learn" in the eyes of Westerners, overwhelmed Bruce.

There are no people here for the time being. The leftists have gone to fight with the police. Hong Kong citizens go to work and hide at home. There are almost no people wandering on the streets.

"Go to Central and take a look. If anything happens, record it."

As he gave these instructions, Bruce sat in the car and looked around.

As the situation in East Kowloon became increasingly tense, Bruce decided to go and see for himself what was going on in this place to determine what he should do in the future.

Of course, he will not go deep into the enemy camp - after all, in the American brainwashing propaganda, the red camp is very scary.

Sitting in the car, Bruce looked towards Central Square.

Central is the political and commercial center of Hong Kong. Many banks, multinational financial institutions and foreign consulates are located in Central.

Hong Kong's government headquarters, the Legislative Council Building, the Court of Final Appeal, and the former Government House are also located in Central.

But now, this place is one of the most important places of "struggle".

Although there were not many people in the square, the leftist students surrounded the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

However, relatively speaking, the struggle here is quite "harmonious", at least it is not as terrifying as the development in the east.

Because of this, Bruce came here to observe the situation.

Although students are radical, they are also idealistic and generally do not take up arms to fight.

"It takes three years for a scholar to rebel." This statement still makes sense - although Bruce may not understand it.

Bruce turned over casually and saw a gift box.

He was very surprised, who put this gift box in the middle of the road?

But he didn't care that much. He came to take a look at the situation. On the one hand, Bruce hoped that the conflict between the two parties would not be so intense - he was a humanitarian.

But at the same time, as a capitalist, Bruce hopes that the conflict between the two parties will become even greater so that he can make money. This is really a contradiction.

In fact, Umbrella Company's business in Hong Kong has indeed doubled several times recently. Not only that, but the business in the entire Southeast Asia has also improved a lot. For Bruce, there is nothing better than this.

But when he saw the gift box, Bruce frowned.

it's wired……

However, he didn't know what was so strange.

Bruce began to think about the explosions a few days ago.

Not just explosions, but also various robberies, riots, etc.

Because of the indulgence of the British Hong Kong government, Hong Kong's underworld has become extremely powerful, which has also resulted in many gangsters fishing in troubled waters at this time.

Bruce feels that the situation in Hong Kong has reached its most dangerous moment, and at this time, he should "get to the bottom".

Little did Bruce know that the situation would really start to deteriorate in July...

But at this moment, he suddenly saw two children who seemed to be less than seven years old, playing and making noise on the street.

The two children seemed to notice the strange gift box on the street.

etc……

Bruce suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Why is there a gift box in such a conspicuous place?

Suddenly, Bruce thought of those explosions again...

He suddenly opened the car door and rushed out.

"Don't touch that"

He yelled, but the two children didn't understand what he was talking about, and instead took apart the ribbons in fun.

At this time, a puff of smoke began to come out.

There's really a problem

Bruce had already rushed forward and kicked the gift box open.

"boom"

a loud bang

"Oh... God..."

Bruce looked at the gift boxes that exploded into two trees not far away. He was still a little scared. This was actually a bomb.

Then, the scene began to commotion.

Some female students began to scream, while some male students became excited. They believed that the British Hong Kong government was going to take action against them, but the British Hong Kong government also believed that the students were taking excessive revenge.

As a result, the situation suddenly became chaotic.

"Get out of here quickly"

Bruce asked the members of the umbrella to come over immediately, and then he left protecting the two frightened children.

But before the matter was over, someone actually started to boo at the scene.

The situation in Central began to become chaotic, and the chaos quickly spread to the surrounding area.

At this time, some people began to appear.

They are taking advantage of the situation

The police were already struggling to maintain law and order, so Bruce decided to take the two children to a safe place first.

The dispersed crowd began to block the street, and the car could no longer be driven. Under the escort of the umbrella members, Bruce squeezed out.

"This way"

Bruce saw a small alley, which was very narrow and could only allow two people to pass side by side, but there was no one here and it was very empty.

He immediately walked over with his two children.

Bruce took the two children and first walked through the alley.

"Don't move and hand over the valuables."

When he was coming out, a gun was suddenly put on Bruce's head.

Behind the two people, a man with gold-rimmed glasses stood up from the ground tremblingly. His clothes were torn. It was obvious that he was the previous victim.

Encountered a gangster

At this time, two security guards with protective umbrellas had also come out from behind.

"No one is allowed to move, no one is allowed to move."

Seeing so many people suddenly there, the man with the gun was obviously a little panicked.

Although he was speaking in Chaoshan dialect, which Bruce couldn't understand, through the other person's body movements, Bruce felt that it was better for him not to move.

Bruce gestured at the two security guards, and they understood.

At this time, Bruce suddenly grabbed the other person's hand and struggled to push the other person's hand down.

I'll shoot you"

The other party was obviously panicked, and the two veterans of the protective umbrella had already rushed forward.

"Bang, bang bang"

Bruce fell to the ground in response...

"Protect the boss"

"superior"

The employees swarmed over and subdued the two...

…

"What?"

When Catherine received the call from Hong Kong, she was horrified.

My father was actually shot

It's not just his father, there are many similar things happening against white people in Hong Kong.

It's so terrible that something like this happened in Hong Kong.

After learning that Bruce had made a guest appearance in "Detective Conan", Catherine's heart was raised. "I will go immediately."

Catherine immediately prepared to leave for Hong Kong.

But she soon thought that even if she went alone like this, she might not be able to persuade her father. At this time, it was time to use her trump card - it was time for her mother to come into play.

Catherine told Emma everything about Bruce's injury. She was frightened, and then the two of them rushed to Hong Kong without stopping.

"dad"

"Blues"

When Catherine and Emma arrived in Hong Kong, Bruce was lying on the bed and he had just taken medicine.

"Bruce, how are you?" Emma saw Bruce's thigh wrapped in plaster, and she was frightened.

"I just said, Hong Kong is very dangerous. Dad, let's get out of here quickly."

Catherine asked again, but Bruce shook his head.

"No, no, this matter is very beneficial to us."

Although Bruce is so determined and determined to stay here, Catherine knows that from today on, the situation in Hong Kong will become increasingly chaotic, and similar incidents will only increase in the future.

"This is a good opportunity for the development of our company. The British Hong Kong government will set us up as a positive example, which is very beneficial to our development."

Bruce had already made up his mind to stay.

"How do you know that the British Hong Kong government will make you a positive example? No, even if they build a statue for you, you must go back."

Emma looked really angry.

"Yes, Dad, it's safer for us to go back to New York. There are many ways to make money."

Catherine also advised.

Catherine knew that the current bomb incident was just a child's play, and that the truly horrific thing would not happen until July.

In real gun battles and positional battles, some university and factory laboratories will be transformed into manufacturing factories, specifically used to make bombs.

On the British government's side, they will send aircraft carriers, helicopters, and even marines.

In the coming months, the situation in Hong Kong will only become increasingly chaotic.

If Premier Zhou hadn't ordered an end to this turmoil at the end of the year, we don't know how things would have turned out.

In short, Hong Kong in 1967 was extremely chaotic and dangerous.

Moreover, in Catherine's memory, the bombing incident in Hong Kong should have only started to escalate in August, but now, something like this has happened.

The conflicts in Hong Kong turned out to be more terrifying than the history she knew, leaving Catherine at a loss.

What if history had changed...?

Although it would be good for the company's future development if the umbrella can shine during this crisis, it does not mean that Catherine can let her father stay here.

Finally, Catherine gritted her teeth.

Since dad won't go back, then I will force him to go back.

"Dad, if you insist, then I will stay too."

Catherine sat down on the chair next to her.

"Yes, I'll stay too."

Emma also sat down with Catherine.

At this time, Bruce was finally stunned.

"Hey you can't threaten me I'm the head of the family"

"Let the head of the family go to hell. You must go home with me now. Otherwise, I will stay here too."

Emma's usual gentleness has long been thrown out of the sky.

"Uh... then... give me a month."

Bruce was still a little unwilling.

"Okay, then we will stay here for a month, and Kate's birthday will be celebrated here."

Emma blinked at Catherine, and Catherine nodded heavily.

Catherine has actually decided to stay in Hong Kong.

I don’t know if it is because of the intervention of the protective umbrella, or because of other reasons, the situation in Hong Kong is more serious than in history. Although Catherine is worried, she also wants to know where history will go...

…

1.2w reminder... it's too cruel...

Shenhe Sang, are you satisfied now...
