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

Jack's thoughts were not so pessimistic. "Rourke should not be completely crazy yet. He obviously has a target. Don't forget the package of drugs he took from the safe in the district attorney's office. That was a sample of extremely high purity."

"Are you saying he might choose assassination?" Jubal looked thoughtful. It has been mentioned before that drugs can not only be used to get high, but also to kill people. Only two milligrams of high-purity phenolphthalein can kill a person.

There was once an extreme case where a toxic smuggling ship dropped a large amount of high-purity phenolphthalein while being chased by the Coast Guard. The substance was washed ashore on the beach by the waves, and the packaging was damaged, resulting in the entire beach being covered with this dangerous substance.

The unsuspecting tourists simply walked across the beach and their soles, which were scratched by shells, came into contact with high-purity phenolphthalein and they lost their lives.

"If he still has targets, maybe Samuel Gray knows something." Jubal tossed the car keys to Aubrey, signaling him to be the driver.

So everyone split up, leaving Alice to rest in the hotel, and Jack took the rest of the group in two cars, and after contacting ASP, they headed to Mount Crist together.

As the Arkansas State Police, ASP is not only a highway police force that is good at chasing people, but also has a criminal investigation department. It’s just that they are not as famous on the Internet as their colleagues who drive Dodge Chargers.

When the FBI arrived, several detectives in plain clothes were leading several teams of police officers, working with police from the local sheriff's office to go door to door to inquire about the situation.

It can be seen that these residents have a pretty good attitude towards the local sheriff, and some even opened the door and invited people in.

"Our people found the Tahoe! It's in the backyard of a house." The sheriff wearing a cowboy hat put down the walkie-talkie and waved to the FBI.

The detectives of ASP were just as capable as their colleagues in the highway department. When Jack and his companions drove behind the sheriff's car and arrived at the house he mentioned, they broke into the house and searched it in one go.

"We found a body in the house!" A sheriff's assistant trotted over to his superior to report.

A few minutes later, the sheriff looked at the body lying in the living room and sucked his teeth. "I know this guy. His name is Chip or something. This is his house."

The deceased was a white man in his early fifties, wearing glasses, with a somewhat graying beard and a completely bald head. He had been shot several times in the chest, and the carpet beneath him was completely stained red with blood.

Seeing several bullet holes on the carpet next to the body, Clay and Hannah put on gloves, lifted the carpet next to the deceased, and picked out a bullet from the wooden floor.

".22 LR pistol bullet, it should be done by Rourke." Clay recognized the bullet model at a glance.

"What does this Chip do? Is he related to Forrest's court or Rourke?" Jie Jie asked the local sheriff.

The sheriff shook his head repeatedly. "I don't know. He's just an ordinary person, a very peaceful one. He seems to work in a medical company."

"Here's his driver's license." Jack handed a wallet on the cabinet at the door to Hannah who was holding the tablet.

"Chip Fox, 52 years old, twice divorced, single, no criminal record, works as a technician at a medical laboratory called Health Promotion."

Hannah quickly found the information and looked a little confused, "Why did Rourke kill him?"

"I don't know. Search the Internet to see if there is any information about him, and then check his social media accounts." Jack said as he took out his phone.

Jubal and Aubrey have also caught the hacker named Samuel Gray. According to this guy's confession, Rourke threatened to revoke his probation and asked him to hack into the server of the Court of Appeal and obtain all the "JNE" questionnaire information.

This is consistent with what the FBI speculated, but the hacker boy also confessed one more thing. Just yesterday afternoon, Rourke found him again and asked him to hack into the "Health Promotion" medical laboratory to find the company's employee list.

"What on earth does he want to do?" Jubal was confused when he heard Jack say that a dead person was just found to be an employee of this medical laboratory.

According to the information, the medical laboratory named "Health Promotion" is just an ordinary medical institution that provides testing services for some common diseases and does not store any highly dangerous pathogens.

Chip Fox was just an ordinary technician, and his job was similar to that of a male nurse in a hospital. Jubal couldn't figure out why Rourke attacked him.

"Jack, I may have found something." Hannah handed the tablet in her hand to Jack, and the others also gathered around.

"There was a report on the local news website, the only publicly searchable source of information about Chip Fox, that he personally tested Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders for the flu last week at St. Michael's Hospital in Little Rock."

"Governor? Are you saying Chip Fox can get in touch with the governor?" Jubal on the other end of the phone was a little confused.

Arkansas is a Republican stronghold. Although it has produced many famous Democratic politicians, such as Zipton, the state legislature has been basically controlled by the Republicans since the 70s.

The current governor, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, comes from a local veteran political family. She is just in her early 40s and served as a press spokesperson in the White House for several years.

Of course, the pressure on this big golden retriever to be a spokesperson can be imagined. Two years later, Sanders resigned in the name of taking care of his family.

After leaving office, she returned to Arkansas, and while taking care of her family, she also ran for governor. She instantly became the first female governor in the state's history, with a resume that's even more impressive than Zoe's.

Of course, if Zoe can really succeed in getting a Senate seat before she turns 40, that would be another matter.

"As governor, Sanders has the power to select judges to the state Court of Appeals, so it's not surprising that she would be a target of Rourke's anger, but the question is what is he going to do about it?"

The answer seemed to be obvious, but Jubal couldn't figure out how Rourke was going to approach the governor, who was surrounded by tight security. It would be much more difficult than rushing into the school with an automatic weapon.

"Impersonating Chip Fox, of course." Jack pulled up a picture of Rourke on his tablet, covering his chin and sparse hair on his forehead.

Hannah opened her mouth without any image. "Ahaha, as long as they shave their heads and wear masks and glasses, even acquaintances would find it difficult to tell the two of them apart, right? Rourke is not very good at being a judge, so why is he so skilled in planning such things?"

"Perhaps this is one of the few experiences he has gained in his long career as a grassroots judge."

Jack made a rather venomous complaint, saying that some people are just like this, they can't do anything serious, but are very good at doing bad things.

"Jubal, contact the governor's office immediately and ask them if the governor wants to do a nasal swab test for influenza today. Rourke only needs to sprinkle enough phenolphthalein powder on a cotton swab to kill her in a few minutes."

-

The wind was howling, and the nearby scenery on both sides of the highway disappeared in front of the car windows at a speed that was almost indistinguishable to the naked eye. Clay held the seat belt with one hand and the handle above the car window with the other hand, not daring to blink his nervous eyes.

"Jack, I don't think Rourke can escape with those ASPs here."

If I tell you, probably no one would believe it. An elite special forces soldier who has undergone rigorous training and can jump from a height of 10,000 meters without changing his expression was actually frightened by two consecutive sharp turns.

After all, when doing HALO (high jump and low opening), the parachute rope is held in one's own hand, but just now when Jack was making consecutive turns at a speed of 220 kilometers per hour, he could only sit passively in the passenger seat and let the past experiences flash before his eyes.

"But they are behind us now." Jack glanced at the rearview mirror and said in a light tone.

Behind the Dodge Charger police car they "robbed", there was a row of Chargers of the same model as ASP with flashing lights and sirens blaring, as if they were extremely resentful of being overshadowed.

Clay looked suspiciously at the Ford F150 driven by the suspect Rourke in front of him, then turned his head to glance at the right rearview mirror, and was surprised to find that just as the marquee in front of him was running, Jack had overtaken the other car on two consecutive curves without slowing down, and caught up to the front of all the ASP police cars.

Time goes back to ten minutes ago.

The governor of Arkansas originally had a charity fundraising dinner tonight. In order to attend the dinner, she had to take time out of her busy schedule to go to St. Michael's Hospital for a nasal swab test accompanied by bodyguards.

Don’t be “deceived” by the poor performance of the United States in a global epidemic in another world line. People in the upper class are generally more concerned about their lives.

It is normal to attend social gatherings with a test report. It does not matter whether you wear a mask or not, but as long as everyone present has been tested and confirmed to be fine, the chance of infection will be greatly reduced.

Jubal's call was very timely. When the secretary of the governor's office contacted the female governor, her bulletproof SUV had just pulled into the hospital parking lot.

The nasal swab testing point was in the parking lot. The bodyguard who received the warning immediately raised the car window, turned the steering wheel and drove away from the scene quickly.

At the same time, Rourke, who was wearing a blue isolation suit and a mask and holding a poison cotton swab and disguised as a staff member, was about to step forward, but was almost run over by the governor's bulletproof SUV.

Sensing that something was wrong, the former judge reacted very quickly. He tore off his isolation suit and ran with agility that was inconsistent with his age, rushing towards the Ford Raptor pickup truck that was parked not far away.

This car was the one he stole from Chip Fox's house, including the hospital parking pass in the car and the ID card pinned to his chest. These were the keys for him to successfully replace the other party and get close to the governor to poison him.
