321 Pick-up

At 3 p.m., a convoy of six black Chevrolet SUVs pulled out of the temporary military base, took to the asphalt road, and drove along the road towards the San Isidro border crossing.

Delta Special Forces GIs rode in vehicles No. 1, No. 2 and No. 5 and No. 6, Matt and DEA agents, and the Border Sheriff in vehicle No. 3, and Rorschach and Liviera and Alessandro in vehicle No. 4.

In addition, a Black Hawk gunship followed the convoy in the air, providing them with long-range visibility and fire support near the border.

The Tijuana Penitentiary is located on the south side of downtown Tijuana, and motorcades need to travel through the entire city to get there. The prison is close to the slums, and the surrounding terrain is complicated, and the security situation is extremely poor, and it is not uncommon for inmates who have just been released from prison to be shot in the head when they step out of the prison gate with their front foot.

Therefore, it is not an easy task to take the prisoner Guillemonen out of prison, and you need to be prepared for the attack of gangsters at any time.

Along the road, the convoy crosses the passage of the San Isidro border crossing and takes the road to downtown Tijuana.

Rorschach looked through the car window, and at this time, a large number of vehicles from Tijuana had gathered at the border crossing to Sam's Country, and they had to go through layers of checks to pass through the port, so there was always a long queue at the entrance to the port.

After a short drive on the road, we entered the city of Tijuana, and were faced with a series of magnificent and tall hotels, which were built to welcome Sam's Nation tourists to Tijuana, and ordinary Mexican civilians could not afford to live and could not live.

In addition to the hotels in front of you, there are also huge advertising signs on both sides of the road, all of which are nightclub advertisements, and most Sam's Countryrs who visit here are going to these nightclubs.

The convoy continued on its way, and under an overpass, the convoy began to slow down, and then Rorschach heard the sound of sirens and looked over his head to see seven or eight Mexican pickup police cars joining the convoy.

Liviera, who was sitting next to Rorschach, poked her head over and said:

"They're here to protect us?"

"It should be."

Rorschach stared at the pickup trucks outside the car, which were guarded around the convoy, each with a machine gun mounted on the roof, and four heavily armed Mexican special police officers standing in the back compartment.

Soon, the convoy passed through the hotel area and into the city, which was not as bright as the hotel area it had just passed, and the streets were not only narrow but also extremely dirty.

Although Tijuana is famous for tourism, the security situation must be less than satisfactory as the panoramic view of Mexico, and the security in the hotel area near the border with Sam is "good", at least during the day, it will not be suddenly killed by stray bullets.

But the more you enter the city, the more chaotic it becomes, large-scale gang fires occur from time to time, and kidnappings and shootings are simply commonplace, and you can see them at will. In the past three years, two city police chiefs have been shot dead, and many wealthy people have been kidnapped, especially for people of color other than white and black, who are seen as complete lambs to the slaughter.

Alessandro, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, suddenly turned his head and said to Rorschach and Liviera:

"Welcome to Tijuana."

Liviera nodded in surprise, and then her eyes widened to see several naked corpses hanging under a viaduct by the side of the road, which were covered with scars and mutilation, indicating that she had been tortured with great cruelty before death.

Below, several police cars were parked on the side of the road, and the yellow cordon separated the onlookers, who looked at the corpses above with calm faces, as if they had long been surprised.

Livira turned her head and stared at the images until she could no longer see them, then she turned her head, her breathing becoming rapid, and the corners of her eyes trembled slightly.

Rorschach turned his head to look at her and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Just ......" Liviera licked her lips and took a deep breath as she said, "Those dead people ......"

"I saw it too."

Rorschach sighed, this was what Tijuana was really about.

Arizandro said earlier, "This happens every day. ”

"Why?" Liviera couldn't help but ask.

Alessandro turned his head and smiled slightly.

"Because it's too close to Sam's Country."

Livira looked at Alessandro, momentarily speechless, not knowing how to answer.

At this moment, the convoy came to an abrupt halt.

Liviera looked nervously around.

Rorschach also looked around warily, as collusion between Mexican police and local gangsters had become the norm here. Although there are about 300,000 police officers in Mexico, and thousands of them die every year, the government and the police have long been infiltrated into a sieve due to the large gap between them and the gangs in terms of equipment, coupled with the gangs' golden dollar offensive.

Most police officers are too low to resist temptation and threats, so they have to choose to join gangs and become their members.

The reason why Mexican gangsters are so arrogant and do whatever they want is because there is no death penalty in Mexico, in addition to being too close to Sam's country and the incompetence of the government.

There was once a big drug lord named Guzmán, who was caught by the Mexican police several times, but even if he was imprisoned, he still ate and drank well every day, and his lover was also in it to accompany him to be chic and happy.

One day, Guzmán was so tired of this life that he spent 300 million dollars and hired someone to dig a tunnel and escape from prison.

In the face of lawless Guzmán, the Mexican police had no choice, until one day, Guzmán finally provoked a big man who could not be messed with, Sam Country and the Mexican police arrested him and extradited him to Sam Country for trial, and a generation of big drug lords was finally punished by the law and sentenced to life imprisonment by Sam Country.

Liviera looked left and right and asked:

"Is there a situation?"

"Nope."

Rorschach shook his head, and as the hunters followed, he didn't see anyone approaching the convoy.

"Then why stop?"

Rorschach pressed the descending window button, and vaguely heard a sound similar to firecrackers, but who would set off firecrackers in broad daylight, and there was no custom of setting off firecrackers when getting married here, so it could only be gunshots.

Livira looked at Rorschach and asked:

"What's going on out there?"

"There may be a place where there is firefighting."

Rorschach shrugged.

Alessandro turned his head and glanced at Rorschach silently.

At this time, Matt's voice came from the headphones.

"The Mexican police said that there is a situation ahead, we want another way, everyone sit firmly."

As soon as he finished speaking, the SUV started again, and the Mexican pickup police car leading the way in front of him suddenly picked up speed and jerked on the fork in the road ahead.

The convoy had no choice but to speed up and follow closely behind the pickup police car.

Along the fork in the road, the convoy entered a downhill slope, and due to the disrepair of the road, it was extremely bumpy, and Rorschach felt a "thump" sound from under his buttocks, and hurriedly held on to the car door. Livira also grabbed the handle above the car door so that she wouldn't be bumped up.

The pickup police car led the convoy into a small road, where the convoy sped by, scaring pedestrians walking on the road into clinging to the wall to avoid it.

After a few turns, the convoy finally emerged from the path and drove onto the road, and in front of them, they also saw the Tijuana Prison with the Mexican flag flying.
