Ethan saw through the telescope that Horstead's figure moved, and half of his body walked through the door.

He couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows, this was not a plan of action.

"We'll wait for Reif to come back, my dear."

Erin's voice rang out in the headset, and Horstead's moving body stopped.

Putting down the binoculars, Hank's face was pale.

Ethan didn't say anything, continued to pick up the telescope, and looked up.

"Walterfa, you've annoyed me for two hours, and now you actually say you won't buy it?" Realizing that he had been reckless, Horstead hurriedly made up for it.

"Can't I change my mind?" Erin slapped him in the arm.

"You stupid Bichi." Horstead turned around and smiled helplessly at the people inside the door, "Sorry, man, woman, you know. ”

With that, he retracted the steps he had stepped into the room.

The bearded man inside looked at him fixedly, and with a bang, closed the door.

Horstead and Erin, pretending to argue quietly, walked down the staircase in the middle.

"Everyone, assemble with me."

Hank picked up the walkie-talkie and said a word, then glanced at Ethan, and the two got out of the car together.

Soon, everyone else came together.

After waiting behind a wooden house, Horstead and Erin hurried closer.

Seeing Hank's unkind face, the footsteps of the two of them became messy.

"What did I tell you?"

Hank clasped his hands on his chest and said solemnly, "Don't go in, do you take my words to heart?" ”

"I'm sorry, my fault."

Horstead raised a hand and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

As soon as Ethan arrived, Hank felt a little embarrassed by this kind of low-level mistake by his own men, and he said angrily, "There are only two of you. ”

"We're so far away, what if a couple of people in the house point guns at you?"

"Don't say sorry to me, say sorry to your companions, you're kidding with your own life."

Erin pursed her lips and patted Horstead on the shoulder to indicate that she was fine.

"Alright."

Hank looked at Erin, "Now tell me what's going on?" ”

"The white man who opened the door, who sounded like a Colombian accent, was in his thirties, with medium-long black hair and a mustache."

Erin quickly spoke out what she had observed: "On his trouser legs, I noticed a touch of red, which was suspected to be blood, and he said that Leif was not there. ”

"Okay."

Hank looked at the people in a circle, "There was blood, now change the plan." ”

"Grab your gear, let's just break in."

"Nope." Julie shook her short blonde hair: "Erin can't be sure, it seems to be blood, this is not enough to enforce the conditions for forcibly breaking in." ”

"Julie is right."

Antonio glared at Horstead, rubbed his face and said:

"Maybe that guy accidentally dripped the barbecue sauce onto his pants while marinating the chicken."

A joke eased the atmosphere of the scene.

"Please, Antonio, you know it's impossible."

Hank smiled and became serious again: "We have three cases of overdose death in our hands right now, all of which are related to the flour that Leif handled. ”

"Are we going to wait until more people are dead before we start moving?"

"Or we can do that." Olinsky straightened his dark gray duckbill cap: "Let's adopt a door-to-door talk strategy, is that okay?" ”

"The guy who opened the door just now is acting strangely, so let's start here."

"This will work, right?"

Antonio nodded: "I think it's okay." ”

"That's fine." Hank rolled his finger:

"Everybody, get armed."

Ethan felt a little embarrassed when he returned to his mobile vehicle, opened the trunk, and picked up the body armor.

For the convenience of movement, they all temporarily put on police body armor.

Body armor will be worn over the clothes like a vest.

And the armpit holster he wore was just blocked by body armor, and he had to carry it directly around his waist in the future.

But there was still a spear here, so he simply picked up an AR15.

Soon, everyone was fully armed.

"Let's go up now."

Hank's voice rang over the walkie-talkie in the patrol car: "You guys are ready to support at any time." ”

Burgess and Atwater glanced at each other and nervously adjusted their seating.

Antonio took the lead, and the group walked towards the apartment building.

"Bang bang."

A burst of gunfire rang out, sending a few clouds of smoke and dust up on the ground in front of them.

"Spread out."

Hank took a few steps back, shouting loudly as he ducked behind the abandoned vehicle next to him.

At the moment of the gunshot, Ethan quickly found cover, raised his gun and looked upstairs, where a pistol was sticking out of the window and shooting at them.

He was about to fight back, but the hand in the curtain quickly withdrew.

"Call the command center."

Antonio hid behind the car and shouted over the intercom: "No. 5600, Emerald District, there was an exchange of fire, there are plainclothes police officers at the scene, asking for support." ”

“go、go、go。”

The gunfire stopped, and without much pause, Hank immediately commanded everyone to rush forward.

The patrol car parked next to it also sounded the alarm and quickly rushed over.

The boots thumped against the iron staircase.

The group walked up the spiral staircase, cautiously and guardedly, and it was not long before they came to the front of the door.

In the apartment building, there are many people who probe their brains.

Olinski leaned against the doorway with a hammer in his hand, and he shouted to the probe probe, "Chicago police department, all come in, don't come out." ”

Everyone else is also on alert, and in such a place, who knows if a gunman will suddenly rush out.

Ethan turned on the radar, and it didn't do much.

There are so many people in the apartment building that there are spots of light all around.

Olinsky looked at Hank, who waved his finger.

"Bang."

He grabbed the two handles of the hammer and slammed it against the lock, and the door opened.

"Chicago Police Department."

Antonio shouted, scanned the room with his gun, and when he saw no one, he stooped in.

The people standing on both sides of the door also followed.

Antonio stood in the living room, looking intently on guard, and Julie alternately stepped forward, checking the first room, and shouted, "Safe." ”

Erin crossed Julie and came to the bathroom, and shouted with a hint of panic:

"A body was found."

Glancing at the bathroom, Ethan followed Hank towards the bedroom, the muzzle of the gun, intentionally or not, all the while pointing in one direction.

The window next to it opened, and the curtains fluttered.

Hank threw himself over the window and looked up the fire staircase behind him, where the gunman was long gone.

"The man who died was Leif."

Horstead gritted his teeth and walked in, the person he met just now must be the murderer.

"Atwater, call the patrol for backup."

Hank called the intercom with a straight face: "Search the whole building to see if the murderer continues in the apartment building." ”

"Dah."

Ethan snapped his fingers to get their attention.
