"I've almost floored the accelerator!!" Salih curled his body completely under the steering wheel, shouting in response.
"Ah! God, do these drug dealers have no regard for the law anymore, daring to shoot at the police directly?" The popping sounds and sparks at the car's front made Betty scream incessantly.
"This is Mexico! Mexico!" Riddle shouted twice: "Not only will they shoot at police, they'll even attack police headquarters just the same!"
What he said was not exaggerated.

The result of choosing to cooperate with drug dealers is like that tall policeman just now.
