Chapter 240: Breakout

Surrounded again, Xu Le's heart did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to take a sip of whiskey.

The shouts and echoes were mixed together, and it was impossible to hear the directions, and it was impossible to count the number of people flying in through the window, and the originally wide space suddenly seemed cramped and crowded. John Reeser very cooperatively threw down his gun and glass, and half-knelt on the floor, allowing the armed men behind him to handcuff his hands.

Harold Finch looked a little panicked, but Xu Le could see that his panic was more or less acting, because Xu Le had seen many times when he was in Yuanjiang that people were really panicked by unexpected attacks.

"Don't move." John shouted at Xu Le, who took out two pistols from the holsters on his waist and left rib with dizzying speed, and fired them with little time to aim.

Two gunshots rang out, and the chandelier of the interior light fell to the ground. In the modest room, the light suddenly dimmed, and it would have been pitch black without the searchlights of the helicopter hovering outside.

At the same time, Xu Le leaned over and ran towards the window.

Now that this dilapidated house has been surrounded, the staircase must be heavily guarded, and the only way out is the window facing the street, even if an ordinary person with decent physical fitness jumps from this height, as long as he makes a qualified tumbling action when he lands, he will not hurt his legs, not to mention Xu Le, who has been injected with strengthening potions and wears a rune bracelet.

Xu Le had no fear that he would be shot indiscriminately, believing that as long as he moved fast enough, the special operations team that launched the raid would not even shoot.

All the unreasonable details finally piece together a small piece of the puzzle.

He rented a car with the identity of "Lewis", left his driver's license information in the car rental shop, and then drove a rented van to the vicinity of the White House in an attempt to remotely assassinate a senior government official, and after being notified in advance and locking the target, the intelligence department of the US federal government chose not to move, and specially arranged a fake Sean Conrad to attract him, why?

After the failed assassination, he fled the scene so smoothly, why?

For more than 20 hours after his escape, he spent more than 10 hours in New York, which is less than four hours away from Washington, D.C., and the US federal government did not issue any wanted notices after learning of his disguised identity, and he did not even see any signs of pursuit. Could it be that as the most powerful country in the world, the work capacity of its intelligence department is so low, and it took more than 10 hours to locate a fugitive with anti-reconnaissance and anti-tracking capabilities of only half a child? And after locating the target in a certain restaurant, the first reaction is to send a sniper to snipe? Are you kidding!

After a sniper in a restaurant, dozens of cars and two helicopters couldn't stop a high-end Mercedes? Why? Just a little superpower of the driver? Come on, this is the world power, both in terms of the speed with which it has information and the ability to make targeted plans after mastering it, it is the best in the world, not to mention, this is their home turf.

But what did this failed interception use in a home stadium where they had all the resources they could use? Not to mention the rain of bullets, not even police cars, roadblocks, and tire breakers were seen.

Why?

Xu Le figured out why the moment the doors and windows shattered, because he had been under the surveillance of the U.S. federal intelligence services since the "machine" sent Lewis's social security number.

But what they want is not a stupid assassin who tries to assassinate a member of the president's cabinet with low-level means, even if this assassin caused a stir on the Internet not long ago, even if this assassin has superpowers, but compared to the legend who created the "machine", Xu Le is just an insignificant small character, and they want to use small characters to catch big fish.

Harold Finch and John Rieser saved unharmed "victims" if there were only one or two, maybe the New York Police Department and intelligence services would not notice, but save dozens, hundreds? Even the most sluggish agent should figure out a pattern when he gets a report of hundreds of bizarre incidents: whenever someone is about to be killed in New York City, a superhero hidden in the dark side of the city will appear, fight crime with superb marksmanship, and then go away, hiding his merit and fame.

Who can predict the future? The superpowers, and the creators of the "machines", can rule out the former considering that the first case of the event occurred before the Awakened appeared. The latter is too clever and skilled, and in order to find him, he must first premeditate a murder that cannot be faked, and then wait quietly for his men to appear and rescue the victims.

Therefore, there will be a fake Sean Conrad on Raphael Square, and the US federal intelligence department will use this to confirm the appearance of Xu Le and John Reeser and track them down.

It turned out that they could only keep up with Xu Le, but they lost John Reese, which was expected, if John didn't have top-notch anti-tracking skills, Harold Fincher (the creator of "The Machine") wouldn't have hired him, and he wouldn't have been able to get away with it after stopping the crime many times.

In order to make John Reeser appear again, they continued to wait until Xu Le, who was alone, finally came to a slightly more lively place: Nandu Impression Restaurant. Twenty-one victim numbers and the little time left can give John Reeser and Harold Fincher, the two "messengers of justice", enough stimulation.

Sure enough, John Reeser rushed to the Nandu Impression Restaurant.

Sure enough, after the two bullets were discharged, Xu Le and John Reeser only wanted to escape, and they had no time to think, and John Reeser immediately returned to the base camp to report the situation after escaping from the pursuit.

Xu Le, who has superpowers, can track John Reeser at close range when he is not in good shape, and the yellow finch hiding behind the praying mantis only needs to follow this unconscious mantis to track all the way to the final destination from a long distance.

It was not easy to find the legendary Harold Fincher, and the CIA's chief of operations did not dare to take the slightest risk.

"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! The Operations Director shouted at the top of his voice to stop the agents from shooting their prey so as not to injure Harold Fincher.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Le was already close to the broken window, jumped forward, and jumped into the street below.

But the moment he jumped out of the window and started to do a free-fall movement, Xu Le realized that he had made another serious mistake.

In the street below, two rows of figures stood, loaded with guns, and the muzzles of black holes were aimed at the windows on the second floor.

Xu Le laughed miserably, no wonder those people inside didn't throw down their guns to stop me.
