Winslow and Chenier looked at Luo An with astonishnt, not understanding how he found sothing unusual here.
Luo An walked up to the platform, examined the ssy footprints on the ground and the broken glass for a mont, frowning slightly:
"It seems that Mona’s previous speculation was correct; the person who shot out Reesi’s car tires probably belongs to a third party."
Chenier briefly inspected the body of the bald man, then turned to Luo An with a serious expression:
"The body shows no signs of struggle before death, or rather, he didn’t even react, and was directly slashed across the major artery; that assassin is very skilled."
Winslow put away his weapon and thought for a while, then concluded:
"After shooting out Reesi’s car tires, the assassin imdiately drove after these three kidnappers.
But he was a step too late; by the ti he arrived here, the three kidnappers had already gotten the information they wanted from Ke Green and had killed him."
"The assassin likely wanted to get so clues from Ke Green as well, so he clashed with the three kidnappers at this staircase."
After saying this, Luo An took out his phone from his pocket, took a photo of the face of the deceased on the staircase, and sent it to Mona to have her investigate his identity. He then turned his head towards Chenier and said:
"Chenier, you stay here temporarily and coordinate with the SWAT team to handle the body."
"OK."
Chenier nodded, and Luo An then looked towards Winslow and said:
"Winslow, go find so holess people nearby, inquire about the recent situation, and figure out where that suspected assassin and the other two kidnappers went.
Ke Green is dead; it’s likely only these three who know the identities of the remaining five bank robbers."
"Understood."
Winslow nodded vigorously and quickly went downstairs along the staircase.
Luo An then continued to carefully inspect the bodies, found no identification or mobile phones, and just then, his communicator on his chest picked up Mona’s voice:
"Luo An, I’ve identified the identity of the second deceased on the staircase."
"Who is it?"
"A wanted criminal."
In the hospital, Mona sat beside the hospital bed, eyes fixated on the text on the computer screen, and explained:
"His na is Francisco, 38 years old, with multiple criminal charges including arson, theft, street racing, kidnapping, fraud, first-degree murder, illegal possession of weapons, assaulting police, and drug trafficking among others; he is one of the interstate wanted criminals recorded in the FBI system."
"..."
Luo An’s mouth twitched, encountering for the first ti since joining the federal agency soone with so many charges.
Mona continued from the other end of the communicator:
"The FBI system shows that the last recorded sighting of Francisco was in Oregon a week ago.
He, along with two other wanted criminals, robbed a gun store in the middle of the night, killing the owner of the gun store and stealing a large amount of cash."
"With two other wanted criminals?"
Chenier’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and Luo An’s expression also changed slightly, asking:
"What are the identities of those two wanted criminals?"
"One is nad Noble Polard, 35 years old; the other nad Barton Polard, 37 years old, they are cousins."
A flurry of keyboard sounds ca from the other end of the communicator, then Mona introduced:
"The charges they carry are similar to those of Francisco, involving arson, theft, street racing, kidnapping, first-degree murder, illegal possession of weapons, assaulting police...
The difference is, the cousins were soldiers in their youth, went to war with strong capability, and ultimately were dismissed from the military after developing PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) and attacking teammates."
"OK."
Mona finished introducing, Luo An-darkened his face and nodded, it seed that the culprits who tortured Ke Green with such cruel thods were this pair of cousins.
Turning off the communicator, Luo An had just walked down the stairs when he saw Winslow quickly approaching, urgently saying:
"Luo An, I’ve found the whereabouts of those three people!"
Winslow spoke rapidly, indicating that he had just gone nearby and asked a few holess people who had seen their MPV earlier. With two US Dollars in his left hand and a gun in his right, he got everything out of those holess people.
The holess said that not long ago, there was a burst of intense gunfire from this building, followed by a black SUV closely chasing a black Jeep heading south.
The license plates of the two cars were not seen by the holess, but they said the two cars were easy to find because both had nurous bullet holes on their rear ends.
"Very good."
Chenier stayed in this building, Winslow got into the passenger seat, Luo An opened the car door and sat in the MPV driver’s seat, started the car, and at the sa ti, inford Mona of the new findings and asked her to quickly locate those two cars.
Soon after, Mona’s excited shout ca through the communicator:
"Luo An! In the southeast of Clark County, Henderson County, the local police received a report a few minutes ago about two cars street racing and shooting at each other with guns!
The descriptions of the two cars ntioned in the report are exactly the sa as what you just said! Both are an SUV and a black Jeep, and the hind parts of both vehicles have a lot of bullet marks!"
"Good."
Luo An floored the accelerator of the MPV and said as they rapidly drove forward:
"Contact the local police departnt in Henderson County, briefly describe the wanted cousin pair and the suspected three assassins, and ask for their help in intercepting.
Also, contact the SWAT team, have them dispatch a team to Henderson County to join us in capturing those three guys!"
"Understood!"
The communicator went off, and Mona and Michelle imdiately started contacting other law enforcent agencies as instructed by Luo An.
Henderson County, not far from Clark County, if Clark County is a satellite city of Las Vegas, then Henderson County is too... also a satellite city of Las Vegas.
Unlike Clark County, which houses workers, Henderson County is primarily middle-class residents, with a cri rate neither high nor low, ranking above average at the national level.
However, today this city witnessed major news, two cars roaring through the highways on the outskirts of town, even shooting at each other while driving, startling many residents.
Upon receiving the residents’ report, the police in Henderson County quickly called all patrols to intercept the culprits.
Most of the residents in this area are middle-class, and the salaries of the Henderson County police depend on these people, facing criminals they naturally put more effort than the police in Clark County.
When Luo An and his team arrived in the county town, the local police had already cornered the two cars at the edge of the town, in an abandoned mining company near a road.
"Hello, my na is Luo An Greenwood, head of the FBI Special Investigation Team."
"Just call Chief Du En, I’m the sheriff of Henderson County."
Surrounded by the sound of police sirens, Luo An stepped out of the car and shook hands with a white male in his forties wearing a county police uniform, briefly introduced their identities, and then asked:
"What’s the situation like on the scene?"
Chief Du En looked grim and pointed to five or six police cars not far away and said:
"These people are tough; we have two officers injured.
Moreover, a few hundred ters behind this mining company, there are so abandoned mine shafts.
These mines are older than my father, and exactly where they lead or what exits they have is unclear to everyone here."
As Chief Du En finished speaking, Winslow’s expression darkened. Luo An fell silent for a mont, borrowed a gaphone from a nearby officer, and shouted a few words towards the factory location.
No response ca as if the place was empty.
Soon, a fully ard SWAT team finally arrived. Luo An and Winslow quickly changed into their gear, ready to join the SWAT team in the operation.
Boom—
Just then, a deafening explosion suddenly ca from a distance.
Following that, to the shock of everyone present, a large hole appeared at the corner of the factory building, and due to a chain reaction, this factory, long-abandoned, gradually collapsed into ruins!
