A kilometer away from the Howard Estate, by the roadside...
Two armored vehicles of the Special Police were parked here, but two squads of SWAT officers were now disarmed and tied up.
This place was about two kilometers from the site of the recent battle. The noise from the explosion of Broad Sword had been mostly muffled by the waves and the earth mounds, and since Joe Ga and his team had silencers on their weapons, these SWAT officers hadn't heard anything...
These special police officers were in charge of security for a reception at the Howard Estate. The rich and powerful weren't keen on police hovering nearby, so they were forced to keep watch from the perimeter.
Only when an alarm at the estate was triggered would they rush over.
That's the joy of the wealthy; with enough money and power, they can make a call and have the police work for them.
And the cops were more than happy to oblige, as this overtime came with hefty extra pay!
