The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol.

Chapter 123 Tracking the Robber

"Okay, there's no one else here, let's talk about what's going on."

Jack urged. At this time, even John on the side saw that something was wrong with the man in front of him. How could there be such a cowardly bank robber in Los Santos.

"They took my wife and daughter away and asked me to give out 25 yuan. I have no choice. Please let me leave with the money. My daughter is only 8 years old!"

Cooper cried bitterly, clutching the canvas bag on his chest tightly, as if this was his only hope.

John quickly comforted him, "Don't be anxious, relax. Who kidnapped your family? Where are they? We will find a way to rescue them."

Cooper shook his head, simply threw away the gun, covered his face and squatted down.

"I don't know, but three people broke into our house early this morning with guns, hijacked our family, and forced us to hand over at least 25 dollars."

"But my investment failed recently, and I barely relied on my wife and I's credit cards to make ends meet in my daily life. I couldn't come up with so much cash, so they took away my wife and daughter and asked me to come up with this much money before night, otherwise they would kill me. Got them."

Jack pointed to the door: "Are the kidnappers in the car outside? Your wife and daughter are also in there?"

"There were two people in the car, but my wife and daughter were not on it. Another person took them away. I don't know where they went."

It's a bit troublesome. Jack and John looked at each other and felt that this matter was a bit tricky.

John stepped forward first and handcuffed Cooper behind his back. Jack picked up the revolver on the ground, opened the magazine and took a look. There was no bullet in it, so he believed most of this guy's story.

"What can you do?" It was now recognized that Jack had many ideas, so John didn't even bother to waste his brain cells and just asked him to think of a way.

Jack pondered for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face: "Do you think if the kidnapper sees that Cooper is dead, will he notify his companions on the other side to kill him directly, or will he go back to discuss it first and then think of other solutions?"

John hesitated for a moment and said with some uncertainty: "Since they will choose to force Cooper to rob the bank, they shouldn't give up so easily, right?"

Jack smiled and said to the confused Cooper: "Then you need to cooperate. We were 'killed'."

It's not against Saint Seiyas anyway, so don't be afraid to use the same trick a second time.

Jack picked up the walkie-talkie, contacted Superintendent Gray directly, explained the situation at the scene, and then proposed his plan.

Not long after, there was sudden gunfire in the bank, and a large group of police rushed in. Then, an ambulance arrived, and a body was put into a body bag and carried out on a stretcher.

The whole process did not last long. Soon the LAPD gradually evacuated, and there were fewer and fewer patrol officers guarding the scene. No one seemed to be suspicious of the van parked on the roadside.

It wasn't until the bank's entrance was cordoned off with a police officer sitting on the steps eating donuts that there was finally movement in the car. Someone got into the cab from the rear compartment and opened the window. After looking back and forth, he slowly started and drove away from the scene.

"You don't need to follow too closely. Gray has arranged for five cars to follow them in a relay. These two bastards can't escape."

Nila, who was in the passenger seat, gave instructions to everyone on the team channel.

Jack's current partner was temporarily replaced by Nila, because Lucy had to pick up Cooper, who was pretending to be a corpse, from the ambulance on the way and take him back to the police station. In any case, robbing a bank is definitely illegal, but given that If there is a reason for the incident and there are no serious consequences, there is a high probability that the district attorney will not file a lawsuit.

It was inconvenient for the police car to follow, so Hannah drove the Firebird to the scene and handed it over to Jack. There were also 4 civilian cars of different models driven by other police officers, and a police helicopter was on standby in the air at any time, just in case.

The police helicopter was far away to avoid detection, but there were more than a dozen police cars following 2 kilometers away, ready to support at any time.

Jack's Firebird is still more conspicuous, so it stays far behind. At the front is the hard-working Tim driving his Dodge pickup truck. After accompanying Angela to visit the bridal shop, his vacation was urgently canceled. , called back temporarily to help.

"Jack, let's switch places. It seems that the other party is going to get on the highway. When we get off the highway, we will switch to John."

Hearing Tim's instructions on the intercom, Jack stepped on the accelerator and passed the Dodge pickup truck, becoming the first car behind the van.

After driving on the highway for less than ten minutes, the kidnapper's car got off the highway, and John and Jack exchanged places again.

After getting off the highway and driving for a while, John suddenly asked nervously: "Hey guys, they have slowed down and may have to turn. They turned on the turn signal and were preparing to turn right at the intersection of Oakmont Street and Arbor Street." mouth."

Tim hurriedly ordered: "Keep the speed and drive over. The right turn on Oakmont Street is a dead end. You will be discovered. Others will get off the car and walk nearby."

Jack, who was following John, pulled to the right and parked the car. Nila followed him with a rifle in hand. The two of them turned the corner and walked a few steps when they saw the van parked in front of a gray house.

"Hey guys, what's up, have you seen them?" John panted and followed them.

"Already entered the house." Nila pointed to the house and picked up the walkie-talkie.

"Command center, help check the owner information of this car."

As she spoke, she reported the license plate of another brand-new Cadillac XT5 parked in front of the gray house.

“The vehicle was registered in the name of Charles Lynside Snelling, who had a restraining order against him on his record and a prior conviction for armed robbery.”

"That's right." Jack looked back and saw that patrol reinforcements had arrived one after another.

As the highest-ranking police officer present, Tim naturally took over the command.

"Tavole, Harper and Nolan, the three of you go around to the backyard and see if you can sneak into the house without alerting each other. Be careful they have women and children as hostages."

Jack nodded, took out his Glock, checked the firearm, and took the lead, followed by John holding a shotgun and Nila holding an AR15 rifle.

Arriving at the backyard filled with debris, Jack reached out and turned the handle of the wooden door, which opened silently.

The three of them filed into the house, and the sound of several men arguing loudly could be heard in the house. Jack leaned against the corridor, pretending to be listening, but in fact his senses were fully activated.

There were only three men's voices in the direction of the living room. In a room at the end of the corridor, there were faint sounds of children crying and a mother's comforting voice. Jack secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The gangster and the hostage were currently separated, so this matter was simple.

He raised three fingers to the two people behind him and pointed in the direction of the living room on his left, and then raised two fingers to point to the room at the end of the corridor. John and Nila nodded to express their understanding.
