Chapter 46: Attacked

But jokes aside, Jack is still quite upset with Angela and Wesley, although they are noisy, but their relationship has been good in the future.

It can even be said that the Hunters are not counting their self-interpretation, this CP is probably a rare positive couple in almost all American dramas, working together to overcome life and death crises, experiencing various run-ins in daily life together, and finally having two children.

It would be nice to be able to live a life as ordinary and loving as they did, Jack thought, and walked to the parking lot with John, where Hannah had already sent the unconscious Angela home.

Because it belongs to the temperate Mediterranean climate, Los Angeles has a mild climate all year round, even though it is already December, but the temperature at night is still more than ten degrees, and the cool night breeze blows, so that the two who are slightly drunk can't help but feel refreshed.

John's old Ford pickup pulled up a little closer, and as he walked to his car, Jack was about to wave goodbye to him, when suddenly a shrill tire-burning sound sounded behind him.

A creepy chill ran down Jack's tail vertebrae down his spine to the back of his head, and the original hint of alcohol disappeared without a trace in an instant.

He shoved John down on the right side of the front of the pickup truck, and then ducked himself, and almost the next second, with a short braking sound, a fierce gunfire rang out, and the bullets smashed around the two like hailstones.

Jack pressed John's head and tried to hide the two of them behind the front wheels, the thin steel plate of the civilian car could not stop the automatic rifle fire at all, and only the front engine and thick wheels could block the full power of the rifle bullet.

Time seemed to have become incredibly long, almost all the car sirens in the parking lot went off, Jack took out the python revolver from the holster under his armpit, and silently in his mind for a few seconds, but the gunfire seemed to stop forever, and it continued.

Soon John's pickup was battered, the fuel tank was cracked, and he smelled dangerous gasoline, and finally the gunfire stopped when Jack was a little impatient and wanted to risk fighting back.

Worried that the other party would deceive, Jack made a feint of the probe, and found that there was no response from the other side, so he leaned out half of his body and prepared to fight back, but only saw two red taillights.

"Fake." Jack scolded, the rain of bullets just now didn't make him adrenaline, but obviously the anger value had exploded.

John was still crouching on the side of the front of the car, his face was in a cold sweat, he had never experienced such a fierce shootout as the [Bronson Building], and the sudden attack just now obviously scared him a lot.

Jack reached out and pulled him up from the ground and told him to call the police, pulling out his phone himself and dialing Hannah.

Although the attack was most likely aimed at John, just in case, he still gave a general explanation of the situation on the phone, asking Hannah to wake Angela up and return as soon as possible to prevent them from being attacked as soon as possible.

Now Jack roughly understands where that sense of immediacy came from when he saw the cousin threatening John before, and if he remembers correctly, Zoe died in the aftermath of the episode to protect John.

There was a burst of irritability in his heart, he secretly reminded himself to be calm, not to be chaotic because of concern, he only knew that Zoe died of this incident, but the specific details still can't be recalled, and now is not regretting that he didn't watch the drama carefully, so he can only take one step at a time for the time being.

In less than 5 minutes, Hannah's Mustang pickup was speeding into the parking lot, and she jumped out of the car and nervously checked Jack's body to make sure he was unharmed before breathing a sigh of relief.

And Angela, who was forcibly washed with a bottle of cold mineral water to wake up, looked in a mess, her eyes were still a little dull, and she seemed to be still thinking about what she had just missed.

Ten minutes later, a large number of police cars arrived with sirens, followed by Tim, Lucy and Nila, who were dressed in civilian clothes, and others also received the news and rushed from their homes.

Tim's eyes widened as he watched John's old pickup being swept to scrap metal, and his face was incredulous: "Who did you two offend?" ”

Jack pointed at John: "You're going to ask John, I think it's coming for him, the other party is obviously a guy with heavy firepower, and as soon as we got to the side of the car, he used an assault rifle with a modified drum to sweep us hundreds of rounds." ”

"When I was about to fight back, the other party had already gotten in the car and ran, only saw two taillights, and I didn't even see the license plate, so I should be a more experienced professional."

Still a little stunned, John shook his head, dazed.

Lucy and Nila, who were on the side to learn about the situation with the night patrol officer, walked over.

"My colleagues on the night shift asked about the surroundings, but no one saw the gunman."

"Or that no one wants to admit to seeing the gunman." Nila added.

"They found the gunman's car, which was reported lost this afternoon."

At this time, Zoe and Superintendent Gray came from behind the group.

Zoe opened her mouth to tell the truth: "According to intelligence, you have been ordered to be pursued by the [Southern Front]. ”

Tim looked a little unhappy: "Since the old rookie was offered a head bounty by the gangsters before me? Looks like I'm going to refuel, it's incredible. ”

Well, it's a very Tim-esque statement.

Angela, who has come to her senses, obviously has a different opinion: "This should have nothing to do with John's status as a policeman, but a personal vendetta, otherwise there is no reason why he will be targeted by white supremacist groups like the [Southern Front]."

John was even more confused: "Excuse me, white supremacist gangster? Hunt and kill order? What the hell is going on. ”

Superintendent Gray explained: "Normally, gangs don't target police officers, and it can get them in a lot of trouble, unless a police officer insults a gang member, they will issue a chase order. ”

John opened his mouth slightly, looking at the crowd in confusion, as if he didn't understand what everyone was talking about.

Jack sighed, "I think it's the cousin you arrested today, you forgot the threat she made to you." ”

"She tore her skirt in public, and insisted that I made her make a fool of herself in public." It dawned on John.

Zoe nodded: "Astrid Heather, the woman of the [Southern Front] gang leader, this is one of the most violent gangs in California. ”

"Because of that woman's pillow wind, now the [Southern Front] gang leader has instructed all the gang members to hunt you down." Superintendent Gray added.

"What about me? I was the woman I arrested with John. Nila had a look of eagerness on her face, and like Tim, she seemed to see it as an honor to be hunted by the gangsters.

The black-faced superintendent looked helpless, and he didn't know whether to be relieved or angry about his subordinates' optimistic attitude.

"It was John who stretched out his hand to torture people, so the hunt warrant was only for John."

Nila's expression was still a little unwilling, and she glared viciously at Tim, who seemed to be relieved, the African American policewoman who retired from the position of a senior undercover police detective was obviously also a bold man.
