The God of War
Chapter 160
Thomas drives the company car and rushes to the Commander Office Building.
As the man passed the highway by the river, he was surprised to see many cars parked along the road. A group of people stood by the river while looking at something.
A gray-haired elder cried loudly by the river. It sounded as if she was crying because her grandson had been drifting in the river.
Thomas parked his car, opened the door, and walked towards the crowd.
"What's going on?" ask Thomas.
A nosy old woman said, "An old man brought a child and played by the river. Unfortunately, a huge current hit them, and the boy fell deep into the river, so he was immediately swept away by the current."
Well, then, the kid might be dead.
The old woman pointed into the distance and said, "Look, the boy is there."
Thomas looked at the direction of his finger. He saw a child holding a foam board while floating in the middle of the current.
That kid must have died without that foam board.
Even with the foam board, the child could not stand up to his physical strength. The child may not be able to last more than a few minutes, and it is likely that he cannot wait for the police to arrive.
Someone has to get in the water and save him.
Thomas took off his buttons before he walked towards the river. As the man walked, he felt a strong and cold wind on his face.
A strong wind blew the flow, and the waves surged.
Under such circumstances it was almost impossible to save the child from the river with human strength. The old man sat on the ground crying loudly. Him
pleading with passers-by to save his grandson.
"Who would be kind enough to save my grandchild? I beg of you!"
"Whoever can save my grandson, I will thank him in exchange for $1.000.0 00.
"Who can help me?"
A million dollars is a very tempting amount for people in general.
Even so, no one had gone to save the child because between money and life, everyone chose their lives.
What kind of joke is this? The current is so big, and the wind is so strong. Anyone who enters the river in this weather will die.
The current them could only wait for the rescue team to come.
While everyone was discussing, Thomas took off his jacket, threw it aside, and prepared to plunge into the river.
A tall man stopped him from the side. "What are you doing?"
"Save the child."
"Save the child?" The tall man smirked. "Do you only care about money? Don't you see how scary the river is?"
"It's okay," said Thomas indifferently.
When the man heard it, he kept laughing. "It's okay? Are you bragging? Do you know who I am? I'm Jordan Neal, the state swim team leader. My day in the water, and my swimming skills at an advanced level. If I can save that kid, is it your turn? Don't be too greedy and overestimate yourself. Go, don't get in the way."
Everybody agreed to it.
"really so. In a storm like this, human power alone could not save the child."
"More when it comes to ordinary people like us. Even Jordan, who undergoes professional training every day, can't do it."
"He's a professional. If he can't do it, let alone someone else. We better wait for the police to come. Don't worry about sacrificing your life."
"Hey, are you crazy? Didn't you hear my words or what? You will only die in a storm like this!"
Thomas walked to the river again without speaking.
It seems like the boy can't hold on anymore.
At this moment, a huge current hit the boy again.
Seriate....
Thank you
