Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 620 Advance Guard Taking It Easy and Rapid Exposure

Harrison was a sly old fox.

With how often he had taken the fall before, he should’ve been fired dozens of times already, but his position as a captain had never been shaken.

It wasn’t because he was backed by someone powerful, but because many of the missions that were given to his squad were highly dangerous.

For example, in the gunfight against Bullseye, ten members in his squad died, but that wasn’t because of any lapse in Harrison’s command.

The bigshots in LAPD were no fools.

If they let go of a subordinate like Harrison who was capable, willing to get things done, and wasn’t afraid to take responsibility, then who else in SWAT would work on the tricky cases?

If they let go of a captain over each case, then half of SWAT’s teams would’ve been replaced in a year!

Without these experienced old guys who weren’t afraid to get things done, the new inexperienced SWAT rookies wouldn’t be able to maintain law and order in Los Angeles, which would be a serious problem.

Thus, even at almost forty years old, Harrison was still a captain. He would be suspended a few times every year, but would be out and about again once the incident blew over.

This fall guy was the higher-ups’ most trusted squad commander. Whenever there was an emergency, they would turn to him.

Suspension? That was nothing more than a performance for the outside world.

He had once even been suspended for two months, but that didn’t affect his pay or bonus as he went to HQ every day to command his team remotely.

As an experienced SWAT captain, organizing an escort mission couldn’t be any easier.

Besides Luke and Selina who would be providing peripheral support, Harrison also made arrangements for the other squads who would be helping out. He didn’t blindly expand the escort team either.

Harrison didn’t want the convoy to suffer because of those guys who were crazy about money.

A hundred million dollars was enough to make criminals fight a small war.

As he listened to Harrison’s arrangements, Luke checked his guns and looked for the inventory manager at HQ for a batch of bullets.

This operation was directly handed down by the bigshots at HQ, and all departments had to provide assistance.

Thus, even though the inventory manager was astonished at the request for five hundred bullets and multiple clips, he still handed them over. In any case, Luke and Selina’s signatures were on the receipt.

Perhaps they were collecting the bullets for their teammates too? The inventory manager could only assume that was the case.

After organizing the mission, Harrison came over and asked in a low voice, “Do you see any holes?”

Luke shook his head. “Harrison, you’re a professional when it comes to these sorts of operations. You should believe in yourself.”

Harrison was relieved. He had been afraid that Luke would suddenly point out a big hole, which would’ve been embarrassing.

However, as Luke continued to check his guns and load them, he continued, “Even if something does go wrong, we just need to get rid of the criminals in our way!”

Saying that, he snapped the chamber of his revolver back into place and raised his head with a smile. “You know that I’m best at that.”

Harrison forced a smile. You’re absolutely right.

But there was nothing wrong with what Luke said.

If they killed all the criminals in their way, they would naturally be able to complete this escort mission.

He glanced at the Smith & Wesson M500 in Luke’s hand. “You use this too?”

Luke: “Of course, in case I run into any criminal wearing a bulletproof vest.”

Harrison was lost for words. Do you think you’re hunting elephants?!

Soon, the team was all set and moved out.

Harrison already had a backup plan for ground escort in the first place. He just needed to make some minor adjustments to complete the deployment.

Luke and Selina got into their car and drove into HQ’s underground parking lot.

Luke signaled to Selina and switched all the windows to dark mode.

She sat in the backseat and patted Gold Nugget on the back gently. A ball of golden Slime touched her hand and swiftly disappeared.

When that was done, Selina climbed back into the passenger seat.

Luke started up the car unhurriedly and went out to patrol the surrounding streets.

He activated the comms a short while later. “This is Falcon. There are multiple lookouts around HQ – I’ve already spotted more than ten.”

Harrison: “Copy that. Everybody, stay sharp.”

Everybody turned serious.

A ground convoy wouldn’t be as easy as sending a prisoner off via chopper.

Until they delivered Alex to the prison, the entire convoy would be in danger.

The team of police vehicles drove out of the underground parking lot.

Four motorbikes led the way, followed by three cars, two black SUVs in the middle, and another three cars in the rear.

The convoy moved quickly down the street toward Los Angeles County Prison in the east.

Luke drove ahead of the team.

“Falcon reporting! Anomalies in the apartment building on the right two hundred meters in the front. Two tramps pushing carts are on the lookout at the intersection. There are two container trucks on both sides of the street which might be the source of an ambush.” He didn’t speak fast, but he exposed the criminals’ position at a rapid rate on the comms. These criminals were all heavily armed, and had to be eliminated quickly.

The convoy instantly slowed down.

A moment later, the police force in the area converged to pin down the drivers of the two trucks.

Surrounded by the police’s guns, the dozen criminals inside the trucks surrendered.

Their ambush was a bust and they were surrounded. They couldn’t even put up any resistance.

The trucks weren’t bulletproof. If any of them resisted, the police around them wouldn’t hesitate to riddle them with holes.

The two criminals who were pretending to be tramps were stopped as well.

Several officers got out of their cars and took cover behind the open car doors as they pointed their guns at the criminals without saying anything. The two criminals obediently got on their knees. Their Uzis were confiscated without firing a single shot.

Harrison rejoiced that he had shamelessly pulled Luke into the team, or quite a few officers might have already been lost in this round.

The officers on the right side of the street had already reported that they had discovered two criminals, who dropped an RPG and two rocket missiles as they ran from being pursued.

These weren’t anything like guns; one shot would be enough to wipe out a police car along with a few officers.

After the first engagement between the police and criminals, the police crushed the criminals without sustaining any casualties as they directly arrested more than twenty criminals.

The tally was 1:0.

Luke drove unhurriedly and heard Harrison’s instruction: “The first wave has been suppressed. Proceed, but don’t drop your guard.”

Everybody knew what that meant.

The ones to come out first were always the small fry who were the least patient and capable. A hundred-million-dollar reward wouldn’t attract just this rough bunch. The professional criminals hadn’t made their appearance yet. “Falcon reporting! Send someone to check the garbage truck on the right side of the street a hundred meters in the front. Practice caution – they may have guns.” Luke drove past the garbage truck at a regular speed and radioed in after just a quick glance at the two garbage workers.

He turned his head and looked at the other side. “Have someone check the workers doing sewer maintenance at the intersection 350 meters away. Don’t let them reach for their tool boxes. Two of them are underground. The best would be to use tear gas grenades or something.”
