Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 261 The Chase

This was a twisty mountain road. Sliding down that dirt slope would lead to the road below.

Rhyns and his buddy were sprinting ahead, with the cops right on their tails.

In the dead of night, all you could hear were the sounds of running and the shouts of the police. "Rhyns, if you keep running, I'll shoot!"

Suddenly, the sound of an engine roared from a distance.

At that moment, Rhyns hit a fork in the road, and two motorcycles were coming from different directions.

The rider on the opposite bike sensed something was off and slowed down.

Just then, the motorcycle coming from the bend charged straight at Rhyns, knocking him to the ground. His buddy rushed over, panicking, to help Rhyns up.

"Rhyns, you okay?"

Rhyns clutched his chest, spat out some blood, and glared at Faris, who was on the motorcycle.

Rhyns snarled, "Faris, so it was you who betrayed me."

He suddenly pulled out a gun and fired a shot at Faris.

Faris dodged, rolled off the motorcycle, and avoided the shot. The bike fell to the ground.

The person on the other motorcycle freaked out, hit the brakes, and tried to turn around to leave.

But it was too late. Rhyns took a few steps back, yanked the person off the bike, and held a gun to their head.

Rhyns shouted, "Anyone takes another step, and I'll blow his head off."

For the safety of the hostage, the cops didn't dare move forward.

The motorcycle was loaded with ducks, probably heading to the early morning farmers' market.

The guy looked like an honest farmer, scared out of his wits, and even started crying.

"Please, don't kill me, I'm just a simple farmer..."

"Shut up!" Rhyns snapped.

The cops didn't dare approach and tried to talk him down.

"Rhyns, don't make things worse. Put down your weapon and surrender."

Controlling the hostage, Rhyns quickly mounted the motorcycle. His buddy jumped on behind him, sitting back-to-back, using the hostage as a shield while still aiming the gun at the man's head. Rhyns gave us a mocking look and said, "If you don't want to harm the innocent, stay still. Once we're gone, I'll let him go."

With that, he revved the engine, and the motorcycle shot off, with the hostage screaming in fear.

It was tough for a motorcycle to carry three grown men and a bunch of ducks. In the struggle, the hostage fell to the ground.
