The meeting ended soon, and the police officers left the conference room one by one. The police station had already prepared dinner for everyone.

Locke and David were last in line to leave because they sat further back. He was about to leave when Anna Davis called to him.

Locke signaled David to leave first, walked over, and said hello to Steve Thomas first, "Hi, Captain Thomas, are you in charge of tonight's operation?"

"Locke, just call me Steve..."

Steve Thomas bumped fists with Locke and glanced at Anna Davis next to him, "I am only responsible for leading the team and cooperating with the Wilshire Police Department tonight..."

Locke instantly understood. It seemed that the level of action tonight was higher than expected!

Steve Thomas added: "Locke, after you join the Detective Bureau, are you interested in joining the Anti-Crime and Narcotics Division?"

Locke was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer. He would rather go to the Robbery and Murder Department, but he was not sure whether Steve Thomas's words meant what the Thomas family meant.

"Hey, you guys have to catch up on old times and find some other time..."

Anna Davis interrupted the conversation between the two and asked Locke: "I heard that your driving skills are very good?"

Locke suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this was just what Steve Thomas meant, thinking that his driving skills had been exposed several times.

He nodded and said: "It's good, but Crown Victoria is too old. Although it has a 4.6-liter, V8 engine and 254 horsepower, it is too old and it is difficult to catch up with modified cars..."

Anna Davis smiled and said: "I didn't ask you to chase the car. I just wanted to tell you to take it easy tonight and don't act like a hero! Okay, go get ready. Remember, follow the command in all your actions!"

"Understood!"

Locke was startled, his eyes swept over the faces of Anna Davis and Steve Thomas, nodded, walked out of the conference room, and chased David and the others. It seemed that there was another hidden reason for tonight's action.

After Locke left, the Thomas brothers also walked out of the conference room. Anna Davis said angrily: "Don't forget that you are about to be transferred from the Anti-Gangster and Narcotics Division. Why do you still want Locke to join your team?"

Steve Thomas touched his nose and said with a sneer: "I'm used to it. It's really a waste for Locke to go to the Murder Division to close the case. However, do you need to specifically mention his actions tonight?"

Anna Davis' eyes flashed and she shrugged: "Who knows! It's not like you don't know his abilities. If you don't mention it, it would be bad if he works too hard tonight and affects the action!"

Steve Thomas muttered: "Actually, I still think the Anti-Gangster and Narcotics Division is more suitable for me. If Locke joins my team, I am confident that I can wipe out all the gangs in Los Angeles..."

Anna Davis turned her head and glanced at him, and he immediately shut up and said calmly: "I'll just tell you..."

……

As night fell, the night shift patrol cars of the Wilshire Police Department drove out of the police station one after another, but the frequency of patrol cars driving out today was obviously much higher than usual.

Locke's and David's patrol cars also drove out of the police station among them, and disappeared into the traffic after a while, but fortunately, they did not have to perform patrol duties tonight.

The patrol cars participating in the temporary mission have already designated interception areas. Before taking action, they only need to stay hidden and standby.

Under David's guidance, Locke drove towards Chinatown, which made him hesitate to go back to Villa Cortina to take a look.

Chinatown is just below the Cortina community. A lot of furniture arrived today, and the inside of the villa must have changed a lot.

When he arrived in Chinatown, David got off the car and bought some snacks and drinks at the Chinese supermarket. Since he didn't know how long he would be staying here, it was necessary to replenish food and water.

Locke asked curiously: "Why do you come here to buy it? Is there anything special about it?"

David replied: "I love the mustard chips here, you will definitely fall in love with them after you try them..."

Locke shrugged as he started the car, "Mustard-flavored potato chips are not new, they are also available in the United States..."

David said seriously: "No, the ones made in China have completely different tastes from those made in the United States. There are also other flavors, including barbecue and cucumber. You will know when you try them later. Of course, more The important thing is that we don’t bump into other people when we come here!”

Locke smiled and said: "Is this the experience accumulated over more than 20 years?"

David said angrily: "Boy, don't look down on this experience. For tonight's operation that requires high confidentiality, the first thing we have to do is hide ourselves and reduce the chance of exposure. Everyone will go to the supermarket near the police station to buy When things are piled up, it is easy to attract people’s attention..."

Locke nodded, recognizing David's caution. He asked again: "David, I have a question. The police station took away our mobile phones, but we dispersed to our respective interception areas. We can still go Shopping in the supermarket, you know what I mean, doesn’t that involve the risk of exposure?”

David nodded with satisfaction, "A very keen observation, but procedures are procedures, and favors are favors. The procedure requires that mobile phones be taken away, but no one knows how long they will be squatting, so purchasing food and water is a must. Also , if it was a really strict operation, we would not be allowed to come out so early. Therefore, tonight's operation is most likely just a routine operation, do you understand?"

Locke looked at David in surprise. He knew from Anna Davis' hint that tonight's action should have another purpose, but David inferred from other places that tonight's action was not too important.

He nodded and said: "I understand, this is based on experience..."

……

Locke and David are hiding in an alley under the overpass of the Long Beach Expressway. Under the bridge is the gathering point of the drag racing gang. Their action tonight is to capture the drag racing gang here.

There are not many people there now, they have been waiting here for almost three hours.

People who have experienced what it feels like to sit in a car without driving will never want to try it again, especially since the seat backrest has a limited adjustment angle towards the rear, making sitting even more uncomfortable.

Since I couldn't drive, I had to open the windows to get some air. The smell outside the car was unbearable, but maybe I had my own problems, and I got used to it over time.

The snacks and drinks David bought had been consumed long ago. The two got out of the car and poured water three times, taking turns to stare twice at intervals.

Locke looked hopeless, yawned, turned to David, who was still there, and asked: "How long do you think we have to wait?"

David glanced at the old gold Rolex watch in his hand, "It should be soon. Drag racing parties usually start after 11 o'clock. What? I can't stand such a short time. We have waited seven or eight hours before... …”

Locke stretched his hands and feet and said angrily: "I'm a full fifteen centimeters taller than you!"

David twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "It's okay. It should be much better when I replace it with a Ford Explorer. The SUV has more space..."

"..."

Locke directly gave him a middle finger. This old guy knew that he would not be able to enjoy the new police car donated by Loew Hogwarts, but he said this deliberately.

At this time, the radio suddenly rang, "Code 1, all units, please pay attention. This is Commander K. I will direct tonight's operations. The suspect vehicle is about to enter. Please pay attention to concealment. Traffic Division (Traffic Law Enforcement Department) remains vigilant and blocks roads at any time." …”

Following the sound on the radio, Locke had already heard the roar of cars from far to near, all of which were the roar of large-displacement engines. The modified cars of the racing party had already gathered here.

But what shocked him even more was the voice on the radio. It was clearly Anna Davis's voice.

How could she be directing this operation in the name of the Detective Bureau?
