……
The words on the retina made Qin Ran groan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The female sheriff was wanted completely out of Qin Ran's expectations.
Although he deduced that there was an inner ghost in the police station, Qin Ran didn't expect that this inner ghost had such a great energy and would be able to do this.
Or is it ......
"Collusion with outsiders to exert pressure from the outside?"
Qin Ran subconsciously thought of those heavily armed attackers.
Don't say that those weapons and equipment are difficult for ordinary people to handle, and the people who use weapons are also the elite of ordinary people, and such elites are very rare.
And the fact that the two appeared at the same time can only show that the mastermind behind the command of this team has considerable power and financial resources.
As it happens, a mayoral candidate was killed in the bombing.
"The other party's competitors?"
Another speculation appeared in Qin Ran's heart.
However, due to the urgency of time, he could not confirm this speculation.
Boskine, who heard the radio broadcast on the sidelines, couldn't hold back anymore.
"How is that possible?!"
"How could the sheriff be the murderer of the Winchester House bombing!"
"Those guys, do you have in your heads?"
The young man yelled, and his anger made Boskine's forehead bounce.
Then, Boskine had to step on the gas.
It was clear that the young man was going to return to the police station and find the person who gave the order.
However, Qin Ran pulled out the key one step faster, and let the car turn off directly.
"Wait for me in the car!"
Qin Ran didn't wait for the young man to ask, he ripped off the bulletproof vest on his body, pushed the door and got out of the car.
Straight, Qin Ran walked towards the 'dance. Mother's gate of the night show.
The sheriff was following them.
The car that was being driven was still parked on the side of the street not far from them, and with the character of the female sheriff, it was impossible to do such a thing as robbery, even in the most dangerous times.
So, you can only rely on your legs to get rid of your pursuers.
Walking through, there will be traces.
After the [tracking] level of -1, it may not be possible to track the soul, but the traces left by the person are clearly visible.
It just so happened that in the instinct of prudence, Qin Ran habitually recorded the fingerprints and footprints left by everyone who approached him.
Enter the [Tracking] field of view and start with the 'Dance. Mother's night gate, went directly to the opposite alley.
Unlike 'dance'. Mother's back door alley is narrow.
The alley in front of you is not only narrow, but also extends in all directions, like a labyrinth.
In Qin Ran's [tracking] field of vision, the footprints belonging to the female sheriff at the front were obviously very familiar with the environment here, turning left and right without stopping for a moment.
And the tracker behind him doesn't have the ability to do that.
Faced with a fast, terrain-savvy sheriff, these trackers became fewer and fewer until they disappeared completely.
However, even without a tracker, the sheriff did not stop.
After making arrangements very carefully, he began to move in one direction.
Looking at the obvious traces of misdirection left in the [Tracking] field of vision, Qin Ran couldn't help but admire the female sheriff's approach.
It may not be possible to hide one's whereabouts in the general direction.
But it's enough to waste most of the attention of the trackers who come back again.
Listening to the footsteps looming in the distance, but gradually moving away, Qin Ran walked quickly to an iron ladder.
It is an iron ladder that rotates upwards against the seven floors of the building in front of it, leaving a platform leading to the corridor on each floor.
Qin Ran walked to the third-floor platform and quietly pushed open the corridor door.
Long wooden corridors, closed doors and windows.
The corridor connects to the platform with a green sticker that resembles a notice.
'Moore & White Mulberry Apartment 3F'
However, Qin Ran couldn't feel more breath of life.
The wooden floor is even more dusty.
Obviously, it was either abandoned or closed.
Without the need for [tracking] vision, Qin Ran came to the door of the room with the 309 door number hanging on it.
Knock, knock!
After the rhythmic knock on the door, Qin Ran distinctly heard the sound of hurried footsteps in the room and the sound of the pistol safety being opened.
"It's me!"
"I'm alone!"
In order to prevent the female sheriff from making any bad moves, Qin Ran spoke.
After about 1 second, the sheriff vigilantly opened the door, just a crack in the door, and looked out.
No need to ask, just by the posture of the female sheriff, Qin Ran could be sure that behind the door that he couldn't see, the muzzle of the pistol was aimed at the door.
Very cooperative, Qin Ran raised his hands, indicating that he had no weapons.
"Come in!"
The sheriff said this and opened the door.
It's just that the muzzle of the gun is still aimed at Qin Ran.
Qin Ran, who walked into the room in response, looked around.
There is nothing superfluous, only infrastructure such as beds and tables, and inside the open bed cabinet, there is a lot of everything.
Firearms, medicines, food, water, clothing, and brand new mobile phones and SIM cards are all available.
"Safe house?"
Qin Ran said in surprise.
Originally, he thought that this was just a temporary hideout for the female sheriff, but he didn't expect it to be a safe house.
Building a safe house is no easy task.
Similarly, it's all the more curious that a sheriff would build a safe house.
Of course, there are priorities, and Qin Ran knows that this is not the time to be curious.
"I'll call Boskine on my phone, do you have his number in it?"
"Although your setup is good, those guys will use police dogs as soon as they get nothing again!"
Qin Ran picked up his phone as he spoke.
"How did you find here?"
The female sheriff didn't stop Qin Ran's movements, because she knew that Qin Ran's voice was safer.
But Qin Ran was still skeptical that he could find her.
"Haven't you read my profile?"
"I'm an explorer, I guess I learned to track you in the wild with an old hunter, and after knowing that you were wanted for slander, I found this place following the trails you left behind...... Of course, thank you for covering up, otherwise, there would be three people wanted! ”
Qin Ran said the draft that had been prepared a long time ago.
"That old hunter must be the best Scout in Matam Continent!"
The female sheriff obviously didn't believe Qin Ran's words.
However, the muzzle of the gun was lowered a little, and it was no longer aimed at Qin Ran's chest.
Just right away, the muzzle of the gun that the sheriff had just put down was raised again...... Aimed at the door.
Crunch!
Bang!
The door slammed into the room with an overwhelming thud.
