章節 784: You are under arrest!

As everything calmed down and the dust settled, a loud and authoritative voice boomed amidst the silence. "That's enough. If you do not want to suffer any further consequences, step aside peacefully."

Immediately, the police task force, who had been standing at the back all this time, marched forward with arrogance and authority. 

At the centre of this group was the mayor of the city. He as well stepped forward, his hands tied at the back and his head looking around loftily as if he was above the masses.

"Everyone stay calm and do not panic. The city has the situation under control. We will not let anything happen to innocent civilians. But first…"

He cleared his throat and continued, "Let's first all settle down. Unnecessary panic and unauthorized vigilantes would only worsen the situation." His gaze shifted towards the group of people sitting on the road tiredly as he mentioned this particular statement.
