Chapter 1292 Gather
No one can tell when the riots started, maybe it was when Rick and Nick shot the young couple, maybe it was earlier or later.
But the fear is spreading, and everyone needs to find an outlet. Coupled with the help of people with good intentions, the riots began.
The area where the riot could be found was one block away from Chinatown. This is a major shopping center in a middle class neighborhood. There are many famous watches, luxury goods and game console stores and so on.
The riots started when a few people robbed a convenience store. Several hooligans used pistols to force the shopkeeper to hand over all the money in the ATM.
They robbed the owner of the convenience store, and then went on to rob the Sony flagship store on the same street, taking thirty PS5s. It seems that their actions have caused everyone to follow suit.
Many people who are interested in shopping for zero yuan have picked up their shopping coupons and started shopping recklessly.
And the real climax comes at nightfall. Because the night is the best camouflage, the brothers of Zero Yuanbu only need to wear black clothes and black pants, and rely on their passive talents to hide and disappear in the vast night. No one found them at all.
Black clothes, black pants, black guns, burning beer bottles and shouting slogans.
Smashing and looting began to spread in downtown LA. This is a carnival of zero yuan purchases, shouting crowds, and the sound of explosions. Gunshots and screams continued.
The doors and windows of the overseas Chinese in Chinatown are all closed. Now Xiao Liu finally believes what Lao Sun said, the real devil is only a few blocks away from them.
The invited members of the Sharpshooter Club have all loaded their bullets into the chambers of their guns. The person in charge of Chinatown, Li Tianzhao, who runs the largest martial arts gym in Chinatown and is also the chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, led more than 60 apprentices with sticks, and they had already started to stand in line.
Xiao Chuan, who ran errands, knocked on doors from door to door: "Get out of the car! Get out of the car! Block all the intersections!"
Lao Li, the owner of the dumpling restaurant, was not very happy: "Huh? What if the car is blocked at the intersection, what if someone smashes it and burns it?"
Lao Li's daughter-in-law kicked her husband hard: "If a car burns, it will burn. Didn't you hear the sound from outside? If those people broke in, a whole street would be gone! We worked hard The family business that has worked hard for ten years in the Eagle Country is over! You are a bitch, you still can’t bear a car, go!”
Lao Li muttered: "When did you become so generous? I was reluctant to ask you to buy me a new mobile phone two days ago. Our car was newly bought this year."
"Why are you talking so much nonsense, go!" Lao Li's daughter-in-law slapped her husband ruthlessly: "I can't tell what's important, can I?"
In the face of such big right and wrong, Lao Li's daughter-in-law, who was originally stern, became generous.
The overseas Chinese in Chinatown quickly took action. People in foreign countries cannot survive without reporting to the group. The Chinese Mutual Aid Association organized by Li Tianzhao is the largest Chinese self-help association in LA. Since this morning, some Chinese from other regions have rushed to Chinatown, waiting for the evacuation at that time.
Even if the shop owners in Chinatown are reluctant, they don't care about anything at this time. They parked cars one after another at the intersection on both sides of Chinatown, forming a natural roadblock.
Li Tianzhao's apprentices also lined up at the intersection of the street holding eyebrow-level sticks. The invited members of the application meeting are still in the black SUV, but they have already prepared for the possibility of a possible firefight.
Xiao Liu's hand holding the assault rifle trembled slightly, this was the first time he encountered such a situation.
"How could such a thing happen? Didn't everyone say that the Eagle Country is strong? How could such a thing happen."
Regarding Xiao Liu's naivety, the old grandson of the goldsmith snorted disdainfully: "The strength of this country is obtained by robbing. It has been like this for hundreds of years, and it has been engraved in the bones. Don't listen to domestic boasting every day. When you come to the Eagle Kingdom You know that you are making noodles in the store, and you don't care about outside things at all."
Lao Sun was talking, and he walked out of the store with a shotgun himself.
"Uncle Sun, what are you doing?!" Xiao Liu didn't stop Old Sun.
"What are you doing? To deal with robbers, you must be tougher than the robbers, and you must not lose your momentum, or people will step on you, drink blood and eat meat!" Lao Sun stood at the door of the shop and shouted: "Men in Chinatown, if you can hold a gun If you don’t want the industry you’ve worked hard for for decades to be given to others, don’t be a tortoise. You can’t let Li Tianzhao’s apprentices stand on the front line. They are all young men in their twenties, old men Are you still losing to the young man? Don’t blame me for looking down on you, don’t come to me for gold at weddings and funerals!”
As he spoke, Lao Sun stood at the intersection of the street with a Remington shotgun in his pocket, and stood in line with the apprentices of Li Tianzhao's martial arts school.
In a seafood restaurant on the second floor of Chinatown, the three brothers of the Wang family from the three northeastern provinces dropped their chef hats to the ground.
"Fuck, even an old man dares to go out, brothers and sisters! Don't let those people in!" The three brothers of the Wang family came out from the back kitchen with the longest kitchen knife.
As for a photo studio, the owner of the photo studio, Wang Changgui, took out the shotgun hidden in the closet. His wife grabbed him and said, "Wang Changgui, what are you doing?!"
"Stand guard." Wang Changgui is a refined man with gold-rimmed glasses and a graduate of a prestigious university. I have been in Eagle Country for fifteen years. When I came to Eagle Country to seek gold, I started out as an accountant. However, he was discriminated against in an accounting firm in NY, so he gave up his major in accounting in a fit of anger, and went to LA to open a photo studio. It has been the tenth year since he opened the photo studio. With this photo studio, he has supported his family, married a wife and had children. My daughter is now seven years old.
Wang Changgui's daughter-in-law pulled Wang Changgui: "You are not allowed to go, it is so dangerous outside. You are going to have an accident, what will my daughter and I do?"
"That's why I want to go even more. I only heard of the one who blocked the robbers outside the door, but never heard of the one who let the robbers into the house." Wang Changgui looked at his wife with ruddy eyes: "It's okay."
The wife hugged Wang Changgui and cried: "When we go back this time, we won't go back to the Eagle Country in the future, but we will stay in China, okay? You always said that when you went abroad, everyone praised you. I'm afraid that you will lose face when you go back in a disheartened way. There is no reason to lose face." What's so scary, the fearful life here is scary."
"Okay, we will work in China in the future. I don't want to lose face, let's go back to China. Let my daughter study in China in the future." Wang Changgui kissed his wife's hair, and then walked out the door with a shotgun.
The security guards of Jinli Hotel came with rubber sticks and explosion-proof shields.
The owner of the beauty clothing store also came with a long knife.
The proprietress of the dumpling restaurant also ran out carrying a shoulder pole.
Xiao Liu glanced at the rifle in his hand, gritted his teeth, do it! What are you afraid of! Fight!
In the third- and fourth-floor homes in Chinatown, many people picked up their mobile phones and took pictures of this scene.
Things in this world are often like this. It is natural to reason with civilized people, but only fists are used to communicate with bandits and robbers.
ps: It still hurts after gravel, and people are dizzy. I can't concentrate today, so I can only delay writing a chapter until now, and I probably won't be able to write a second chapter, sorry.
