Exiting his office in Urgency, Chief Reynolds hurried through the bustling corridors of the police department. darting towards the nearest elevator. He pressed the button impatiently, anxiously awaiting the doors to open. As the elevator arrived, he stepped inside, the doors closing swiftly behind him.
Inside the elevator, Chief Reynolds took a deep breath, trying to compose himself. He reached for the elevator buttons and pressed the button with the highest number which leads to the highest floor where the personnel with the highest level of authority in the new york city police department are currently having a meeting discussing the future plans of the police department.
As the elevator stopped, Chief Reynolds anxiously stepped out and headed straight to the conference room, when he reached the door of the room momentarily stopped to collect himself, he took a deep breath before pushing the door and entering.
What greeted him was a magnificent round table surrounded by high-level individuals of the police department, which were made up of police Bureau Chiefs, deputy commissioners, the chief of staff, and the first deputy commissioner, at the head of the table, was the police commissioner seating there presiding over the meeting.
As he stepped into the room, he walked straight to the commissioner, paying no mind to the others who were looking at him at all, that's because his position in the police department was third in command after the commissioner and the first deputy commissioner, granting him the authority to approach the commissioner directly. as for the reason why he didn't attend this kind of grand meeting from the start was that he had some other important matters to discuss with the official from before in his office, but unfortunately, he was interrupted by the one who brought in the information about the convoy.
''Sir'' standing in front of the commissioner, Chief Reynolds gave a military salute, showing respect for his superior.
''What is it, Reynolds? I thought you weren't going to attend this meeting ?'' enquired the commissioner.
''Sir, have a look at this'' replied Chief Reynolds while handing the file containing the pictures to the commissioner with a serious look, reflecting the gravity of the situation.
Seeing the serious look on his face, the commissioner took the file from the man. Opening the file, the first thing that meet his eyes was a photo of twenty black alpine armoring cars surrounding a luxurious Swiptail rolls royce in a magnificent formation.
''what am I looking at!?'' Seeing the picture, looked back at Chief Reynold and threw a question at him.
''Sir, it's like this...'' Reynolds started explaining everything he knew about the convoy. At the same time, the commissioner kept looking at the photos one by one until he reached the photo containing a picture of a black Alpine Armoring car with a logo on its front.
''This?!!''
Startled by what he saw, the commissioner abruptly stood up from his seat, leaving the room in a stunned silence and hurried footsteps. His reaction raised alarm among those present, as they wondered what news could have shaken their typically composed and calm boss.
Seeing their always calm and composed boss leaving the room in a stunned and shocked state made everyone in the room wonder what kind of news the department chief brought him to make him lose his calmness.
As the commissioner left the room, All eyes turned towards Chief Reynolds, their gazes filled with curiosity and a barrage of questions forming on their lips..
''Chief, what happened ?'' a Bureau Chief asked with curiosity all over his face
"Chief Reynolds, what did you show the commissioner?'' asked the chief of staff
''Hey, chief what happened, what was on those pictures'' a deputy commissioner's interest from the side was also piqued
...
Everyone was asking wanting to know about the thing that made the police commissioner exit the room in that shocked manner, but Chief Reynolds didn't answer at all, not until he heard a voice come from the left side of where the commissioner was seating previously.
''Hey, what was that all about?'' the voice asked in a commanding tongue full of authority.
When he heard that voice, chief reynolds looked over and saw that it was the first deputy commissioner who spoke.
He was a middle-aged man in his mid-fifties, exuding an air of authority and experience. He possessed a distinguished presence, with his black hair that showed hints of whitening, a testament to his years of service. His well-defined facial features and strong jawline conveyed a sense of strength and determination.
Standing at an average height, the first deputy commander carried himself with a confident posture, reflecting his years of leadership and command. His piercing eyes, sharp and observant, showcased his keen attention to detail.
His name was Edward Garcia.
''Sir, it's like this, we noticed a convoy of black Alpine armoring cars surrounding a luxurious rolls royce speeding through the new york streets heading in the direction of Chinatown street, but the thing is, the front of these black cars are all embedded with the logo of the Rothschilds'' seeing that the one who spoke was his second boss, chief Reynolds gave him an overview of what happened.
''Did you just say the Rothschilds ?'' hearing the Rothschilds' name, the expression of the first deputy commissioner Garcia completely changed.
"Yes, sir. The logo on the black cars is unmistakably that of the Rothschild family." Chief Reynolds nodded seriously.
Garcia's mind raced with the implications. The involvement of the powerful Rothschild family in a convoy speeding through the streets of New York City with a clear destination was something they can't afford to get involved with, in the end, he could only acknowledge his powerlessness.
"This is indeed a big deal if the Rothschilds are involved. They are not something we can afford to get involved with'' in the end he could only say these words leaving everyone in the room who heard him speechless.
''Sir, what do you mean by that?'' said one of the deputy commissioners from the side.
''Sir, we know that the Rothschilds are powerful and all, but we are the law enforcement authorities, and no one is above the law even if they were the Rothschilds'' the chief of staff said assertively.
''Yes, exactly, they are already breaking the law by bringing out this army of cars and emptying the road without informing us. God knows what will do next'' said another deputy commissioner in agreement with what the chief of staff said.
''And looking at the speed, direction, and most importantly the number and type of cars in this convoy, I am afraid this is no simple matter as it looks like they are going to a war'' a bureau chief added with a serious expression.
''Sir, maybe we should get everyone ready just in case'' seconded another bureau chief.
''Shut up !!'' hearing his subordinates sayings, he angrily slammed his hand on the table.
''You don't know anything about what kind of force the Rothschild family is'' he looked at everyone and said with a frustrated look on his face.
''Don't do anything without orders, even if they started burning the city, is that clear?'' he said in a commanding tone full of authority.
''Sir, yes sir'' Hearing the order, everyone stood up and said with a salute, but their faces become even more doubtful.
''Sigh''seeing their expression, first deputy commissioner Garcia could only sigh. his frustration slowly subsided. He knew that his subordinates had their doubts, but he couldn't reveal the extent of his concerns at this moment. With a deep breath, he addressed them once more, this time with a softer tone.
'' Let's Wait until the commissioner returns, if I am not wrong he has probably gone to report the situation to the governor. We will proceed accordingly after that''
Hearing him mention the governor, The room erupted with murmurs of surprise and concern. The realization that the situation had escalated to the point of involving the governor added an extra layer of seriousness to the matter.
…..
In an office not far away from the conference room, you could see the police commissioner sitting in the office's main seat taking out his phone and dialing a number he was familiar with while waiting anxiously for the person on the other end of the phone to pick up.
Beep
A few seconds after, the call was connected successfully.
''This is the governor's office, how may I help you sir ?'' a woman's voice came from the other side of the phone.
''This is the police commissioner, please hurry up and connect me to the governor, it's urgent !'' said the commissioner in a serious tone.
''Yes sir, right away'' replied the woman in a professional manner.
Tik, tik, tik
While waiting to be connected to the governor, the commissioner was tapping the table with his finger because of how nervous he was.
''Hey, Caban, what is it ?'' Suddenly a dignified voice interrupted his nervousness.
''Sir governor, we have a serious problem !'' hearing the dignified voice, the commissioner immediately recognized whom it belonged to, and said in a serious tone. Not even caring about pleasantries.
''What kind of problem ?'' noticing his seriousness, the governor throw a question at him.
''sir, the matter is related to the Rothschild family...'' As soon as this name was mentioned, he was instantly interrupted by the governor who said in surprise and confusion
''what do they have to do with us?''
''sir, there is a convoy of theirs that looks more like an army than a convoy. Made up of twenty black Alpine armoring cars speeding in the direction of Chinatown Street...'' Speaking to this point, the commissioner took a deep breath before continuing
''sir, you know that the last time they made this kind of move was five years ago in California when the son of the state governor got into a fight with one of the Rothschilds' younger generation resulting in the governor's son being killed making the governor being furious and ordered his execution, thinking that since he is the governor of the richest state and powerful connections he would be able to do whatever he wants, but in the end an army of twenty-nine black alpine armoring cars entered the Californian state in broad daylight, killing everyone involved in that youth's execution, be it the high rankings of the police department, the governor and his party, and even their entire families'' while counting all the things that happened at that time, cold sweet started drenching his back.
''And..!sir, you should know the saying that said that even bull…'' Before he could even finish what he was saying, he was interrupted by the angry shoot of the governor.
''Commissioner cabin !! you know what you should not say''
''Sorry sir'' apologized the commissioner.
''Sir, what should we do then?'' he continued with a question.
''Don't do anything no matter what they do, all you have to do is stay out of this matter as we don't and can't get involved with matters of this kind of force'' said the governor in a commanding tone.
