The afternoon in Ping Meng City was a tranquil one.
In the area near the highway on the outskirts, although there were several factories, not many were operational, making it look rather empty. If you took a walk, you'd feel quite relaxed.
Unless a few hundred armed men showed up.
A team of detectives moved swiftly through the alley entrance, equipped with Type 95 and Type 92 magazine pouches, work bags, and radio pouches, timing their movements as they began to evacuate the workers from the surrounding factories.
The checkpoint at the alley was manned by an officer wearing a helmet, with a face mask, ceramic plates in his tactical vest, and both a submachine gun and a pistol in full view.
The workers being led out were puzzled for a few seconds but soon became excited. Some whispered inquiries, while others disregarded warnings and took pictures with their phones.
