Ray chased for almost half an hour, and finally caught up with the police car convoy in front of him on Highway 20 south of Fort Worth, the cash truck robbery was a big case, and the Texas State Police in addition to the high-speed patrol team was chasing, and the helicopter also sent a helicopter over, and the two robbers' cars were running in front of them in the sky, but because of the distance, Ray and Jimmy could not see the robbers in front of them now, and their vision was blocked by the vehicle, and now they could only follow behind the police car.

Of course, in addition to the state police, the police in Arlington and Fort Worth have also been notified, and now the Fort Worth police have some following behind, and some police officers are already preparing to stop at the front intersection.

Since the helicopter joined the chase, the robbers in front of them knew that they were in trouble, and they continued to run for a while, suddenly leaving the highway through a high-speed exit and entering the southern area of Fort Worth, which is a residential area, and the width of the road is also limited, whether it is the robbers or the police in the back, the speed of the car has slowed down.

In such a residential area, as long as the robber's car persists, it will always find the intersection to get rid of the police car behind, and for the police to chase speeding, the easiest way to escape is the dirt road in the residential area with many intersections and wild groves.

As for eating police cars directly at speed, well, the winning rate is usually not high, and in the case of a helicopter in the sky, this practice of directly relying on speed to eat hard is completely hopeless.

Judging from the choice of the robbers, they also knew how to get rid of the police car, and walked around the residential area, although several police cars behind them also left the convoy to block the surrounding area, but still did not succeed.

In the end, the police in front stopped two pickup police cars diagonally on a small road, the robbers' cars turned at the intersection one after the other, and the cars behind turned in time to leave, while the car in front turned around after braking sharply, and was hit directly by the police car that caught up behind the front side of the car, rushed to the house next to it, hit the car parked in front of the house and stopped, and the police finally succeeded in stopping one.

After turning the corner, the other robber's car changed routes at the intersection and was not stopped, and the follow-up police car continued to chase after it.

Ray did not continue to chase the fleeing car, but parked not far from the stopped robber's car, several police cars stopped, the robbers had already left the car with a gun after the car was hit, and rushed into the nearest house, they also knew that it was impossible to outrun so many police cars and police officers on foot.

The houses here are all single-family houses, not the kind of high-rise apartments in the city, there is a small lawn in front of it, and there is a backyard structure in the back, because the police did not shoot the robbers when they got out of the car, which directly led them to run into the house smoothly, although the door of this house is closed, but the robbers seem to be very professional, and they kicked it open, and it feels like they have definitely practiced, and Jimmy has learned many times to get it done at one time.

After the robbers entered the house, a scream came from inside after a while, and then disappeared, presumably the owner of the house was hijacked.

The police had already surrounded the house in front of the back, left and right, but the robbers were all armed with rifles and shotguns, so the police were hiding a little far away to find cover to avoid exposing themselves to the robbers' guns.

The number of police officers today is absolutely exceeded, more than half of them have been divided to chase another car, and there are still more than twenty police officers left at the scene, and the FBI is relatively few, because only one car is either a police car, or this one driven by Ray, that is, there are only two people, Ray and Jimmy.

After Lei got out of the car, he took out the body armor from the trunk and put it on, walked to the police with the M16, communicated with a superintendent at the scene, and temporarily took over the command.

Both Jimmy and Ray wore FBI badges around their necks in advance, so no one stopped him even though he was wearing jeans and a cowboy hat.

Pulling out the revolver, Jimmy approached the house from the side, and the current battle plan was obviously to besiege and wait for the SWAT team, and he might as well scout in advance.

There were three robbers who got out of the car just now, and now there are a total of 5 figures in the room, one of them is sitting on the ground, two people are observing by the window, and there are two people in the room, and after a while, two people came out, one of them sat with the person on the ground, it seems that these two are the owners of the house.

Jimmy pretended to turn around carefully, because the position of the people inside could be observed, and the position of his circle was a blind spot in the line of sight, which was very safe. Now that the owner of the house is in control, the three robbers inside are also pulling the curtains and covering all the places where they can see the inside of the house.

The exterior walls of such single-family houses, quite a few of which are made of masonry, relatively speaking, if you don't know exactly who is behind the wall, there is no point in shooting, and the hollow bricks will seriously deflect the direction of the bullet.

After scouting around, Jimmy returned to Ray's side.

Jimmy: "Ray, how long will it be before the SWAT team comes?" ”

Ray looked at the house and said to Jimmy, "Fifteen minutes, twenty minutes at most." The SWAT team's base is on the other side of the city, which is too far away. ”

Jimmy: "I just observed, there are hostages inside, let's see if there are any negotiators on the police side, they can't run away, at least make sure they don't kill the hostages." ”

Ray glanced at Jimmy, "You found the hostage?" How many people? ”

Jimmy: "Three robbers, 2 hostages, it should be a couple, middle-aged, the woman didn't see it clearly." ”

Ray nodded and walked to the superintendent next to him to communicate.

Jimmy looked at the house, there should be no chance to fight for a while, he turned around and walked to the car abandoned by the robbers, and took a pair of gloves from a policeman next to him, Jimmy opened the car door and looked inside, there was nothing in the car, he opened the trunk again, and three large black travel bags were placed in the trunk.

Pulling open a bag, which contained stacks of cash, zipping up, and closing the trunk, Jimmy walked over to Ray, "Ray, there's the cash they robbed in the trunk of the car, arrange for someone to deal with it first?" Or wait for the robbers to catch and deal with it together. ”

Ray also came over, just now the two of them came a little late, the robbers got out of the car and ran into the house without paying attention to whether they were carrying anything other than weapons, it seems that they were really in a hurry, and they didn't bring the money in.

In this way, it saves the matter of chasing money later, and the only problem is that the three bags here are not all.

"Bang" "bang", the robbers in the house fired two shots outside, and the policemen outside were hiding behind their bunkers when the shots rang out, "Listen to the policemen outside, we have to negotiate with your superiors, let people come over immediately, we have hostages in our hands." ”

The surrounded robbers seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and they even offered to negotiate when the police did not send a negotiator. Ray peeked out from behind the car and looked at the superintendent, but no one seemed to want to come forward, Ray looked at his watch, there were more than ten minutes before the SWAT team arrived, and it seemed that he was the only one who could negotiate with the robbers on the spot.

Jimmy looked at Ray, he leaned M16 against the side of the car, and straightened the body armor on his body, "I'm FBI Special Agent Ray Hope, don't shoot, I'm coming." ”

Jimmy stretched out his hand and grabbed Ray: "Ray, there's no need, just attack it directly." ”

Ray: "The robbers are already impatient, we must stabilize them first and delay as much time as possible." ”

Ray stretched out his hand to put his hands over the car, signaling that he did not have a gun in his hand, and then walked around to the front of the car and walked to the door, where he stood on the side of the door, not directly facing the door. "What are you going to talk about?"

Ray was at the door of the house, a little far away from Jimmy, and they didn't shout out when they talked, so Jimmy couldn't hear what they were saying here, and he shook his head when he saw Ray say a few words, and it seemed that the negotiation was not going well.

Jimmy picked up Ray's M16, which had no sight mounted on it, and aimed at the window at the position of the car, which was not a good angle, and although the robbers in the house could see it, they did not have a suitable gun line.

Jimmy gave up his rifle and approached from the side with a revolver, and he went straight to the corner of the house, where he only needed to move a little outward, and there was a suitable gun line, and the three robbers inside could hit at least two of them here, and now wait to see the results of Ray's communication.

Jimmy didn't hear the previous conversation, Ray listened to the words inside, and said: "Impossible, don't think about escaping, it's impossible, the only way to survive is to surrender voluntarily, robbery and hostage-taking, murder are completely different, Texas has the death penalty, you have to know this." ”

The robber's voice raised a lot: "Give us the car, and we will release the hostages when we leave." If you don't agree to my terms, I'll show you my determination. ”

Ray: "It's impossible, if you insist on this, then when the SWAT team arrives, it's time for us to attack." ”

Robber: "Don't delay, tell me the answer right away." ”

Ray: "No way, even if someone else comes to negotiate, it's the same result." ”

The robber suddenly raised his gun and fired a shot at the hostage, "bang", and Jimmy saw the hostage suddenly reach out and hold one leg while howling loudly.

Ray: "What did you do?" Don't shoot. ”

The robber said to Ray: "Immediately agree to my request and get me the car ready, now." ”

Ray: "I'm going back to get in touch, please don't hurt the hostages again." ”

Ray hid behind the wall and began to retreat, and Jimmy suddenly shouted, "Get down." He moved outwards and pointed his gun at the window, it was still a little late, the robbers had already raised their guns and shot at Ray's position through the wall.

The "Da Da Da" rifle is completely fine for this kind of hollow brick wall, Jimmy is not in place yet, Ray has been shot, he did not confirm Ray's injuries again, but shot directly from the position of the gun line that had been determined before, as Jimmy concentrated, a white line indicating the gun line had appeared in his heart, Jimmy did not pause and shot directly at the two people he could see to empty the bullet nest, crouched down to avoid the window position, and began to change the bullet.

The two robbers in the room who were targeted by Jimmy fell without any accidents, the last robber hid next to the window on the other side, seeing this situation, he moved directly to the window on Jimmy's side and shot, although he didn't see Jimmy's position, but it was okay to shoot and suppress the window.

The robber must have practiced, he didn't pull the trigger and didn't let go, but kept shooting in a short burst pattern, Jimmy was also worried that he would hit himself through the wall, he changed the bullet and lay directly on the grass outside the window, climbed forward two steps and then stood up, the robber stopped after firing a few shots, he seemed to come to observe, directly on the wall next to the window, a little probe to observe the outside of the window. Because the curtains didn't completely cover the window, he could observe most of the outside, but he didn't know that there was a person outside with a see-through hanger, already holding a revolver and placing it on the side of the window, waiting for him to show his head.

"Bang", Jimmy took out the last robber with one shot, and then turned and ran to Ray's position.

Jimmy: "Ray, how are you?" He knelt down on one leg next to Ray and reached out to examine the wounds on Ray's body.

Ray: "Ah, lighter, I'm not dead, & amp; ......*%, shot in the abdomen and thigh. ”

Jimmy shouted to the police outside, "Call an ambulance, right away." Who carries a first aid kit? ”

The superintendent's side also reacted, since Jimmy shot and rescued Ray, the robber should have been killed or incapacitated, he called a few policemen next to him to start moving from the side to guard, and he opened the trunk of the police car and took the first aid kit from inside.

Jimmy said to the police who came over, "You go in and see, the robber should be dead, the hostage doesn't know what's going on." ”

The superintendent ran straight over, "first aid kit", he handed the first aid kit to Jimmy, Jimmy was already fully familiar with the use of the first aid kit when he was training at the FBI Academy, he opened the first aid kit, took out scissors, hemostatic powder and tourniquet, and bandages, first tied Ray on Ray's thigh with a tourniquet, then cut Ray's clothes and pants, exposed the wound, sprinkled hemostatic powder, temporarily fixed it with a bandage, and waited for the ambulance to arrive to deal with it.

The policeman who entered the house walked out and said to the superintendent next to him: "All three robbers were killed, two hostages are not in danger of life, one of them was shot in the thigh and needs to be treated urgently, otherwise there may be an accident." ”

The superintendent nodded, he had already called the dispatch center when he took the first aid kit just now, and the ambulance should be there soon. He looked at Jimmy, who was doing emergency treatment for Agent Ray, in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

After Jimmy finished dealing with it, he asked Ray to lie down, and Ray spit out the body armor that he had just stuffed into his mouth, and the feeling of hemostatic powder pouring on the wound was really a bit irritating, and he had to bite something urgently before he called out.

Ray gritted his teeth and said, "Well done, Jimmy, ah~~, I haven't been shot in years." & amp; *%¥" I couldn't hold back, and Ray started to explode again.

Jimmy: "Bear with me, the ambulance will be here soon." He turned to look at the superintendent, "Can you contact and ask if the robber of the other car has been caught?" ”

After Jimmy had made the arrangements, he began to reach out and take off all the bits and pieces from Ray's body, mainly the holsters and guns, as well as the handcuffs hanging from his waist, which were more important.

As for the body armor and wallet, these will be handled by the doctor when he arrives at the hospital, because the removal of the body armor is relatively large, and Jimmy is worried that it will affect the wound.

Jimmy: "I'll get your gun back to the office for you, don't worry." ”

Ray looked at Jimmy and nodded, but didn't say anything. Jimmy was also not at ease, he went to the hospital with a gun, if there was an accident, then things would be troublesome, as for mobile phones, wallets, badges, these things, it was not a big problem, it was not harmful, even if it was accidentally lost, it would not have much impact.

The superintendent nodded, reached out and pressed the walkie-talkie on his right chest to contact the dispatch center, because the superintendent was wearing walkie-talkie earplugs, and Jimmy couldn't hear the dispatch center's reply.

The superintendent said to Jimmy, "It's been chased, it's just because the robber's car was in an accident and the scene is being dealt with." ”

Jimmy nodded, and he looked at Ray, "Do you want to inform Lambert?" ”

Ray: "You call." ”

Jimmy nodded, took out his phone and dialed back Lambert's. Originally, there was no mobile phone number for him, but Lambert called Jimmy once in the morning, and the number was not there.
