Chapter 1083 - 1083

This move is known as "The Dragon's Grasp."

The female traffic cop got scared and immediately crossed her arms over her chest.

Yet Dirk Carter wasn't attacking.

He suddenly changed his stance.

Taking advantage of the moment when her hands lost their guard, he touched her waist.

The woman tried to protect her lower body, but it was too late.

The handcuffs from her equipment belt were taken out by Dirk Carter; she tried to grab them, but her stretching motion gave Dirk an even better opportunity.

Click!

Her left wrist was cuffed.

Immediately afterwards.

Dirk Carter swiftly cuffed the other end to the car's roof handle.

The whole action was smooth, quite seamless.

The female cop was dumbfounded.

She struggled hard a few times.

But couldn't break free at all.

She hurriedly reached down to her waist to find the key to the handcuffs.

Only to see Dirk Carter open his palm, with the handcuff key right there in his hand.

She tried to grab it.

Dirk Carter casually tossed the key away.

The female cop instantly became angry, shouting, "Despicable, shameless..."

Pausing for a moment, remembering Dirk had just used The Dragon's Grasp, she shouted again: "Pervert!"

"Beautiful officer, we mean no harm to you; just don't move around and after we finish our business, we'll naturally let you go!"

Dirk Carter said with a grin.

The female cop cursed, "I'm a police officer. You know what happens if you kidnap a cop?"

"What happens?"

Dirk Carter suddenly leaned into the female cop.

The female cop realized the danger, quickly retreating backward.

But the car's interior space is only so big; where could she retreat to?

Just like that.

Dirk's face was almost a fist's distance from hers, nearly nose to nose.

"You... what do you want? I... I'm warning you, don't... don't do anything stupid."

Clearly.

She was somewhat panicked now.

Creating an intimidating effect.

Dirk Carter immediately stepped back, smiling, "Officer, as I mentioned, we won't harm you. Here's my ID."

Having said that.

Dirk handed the ID from his pocket to the female cop.

The female cop took it with her free hand and, initially, she thought she'd be at a loss.

But unexpectedly, she directly threw it back to Dirk Carter, saying, "So you are the wanted criminal we're supposed to catch."

"Wanted criminal? What do you mean?"

Dirk asked, confused.

The female cop showed a contemptuous smile on her face, saying, "The net of justice is vast and tight. I suggest you all stop running; my colleagues must have already pinpointed you when you broke the checkpoint. Just surrender for lenient treatment."

What she said.

Left Dirk somewhat bewildered.

Seeing the confusion in his eyes.

The female cop said, "Didn't you ask me why the highway toll plaza was blocked? Not just there, every traffic entry point in the county has our colleagues; there's no escape. I see you're both young, stop running and turn back from the abyss. If you surrender, I promise my colleagues will not give you trouble."

Listening to this made Dirk more puzzled.

"Still pretending? Let me tell you straight—you two scammers from downtown have been targeted by us. Today, all the county police are out to find you. Abandon any illusions; just admit your guilt."

The female cop spoke with pride.

Radiating an aura of righteous spirit.

Dirk paused.

He said, "I get it. Your superior must have informed you about scammers impersonating leaders arriving in Mountridge County, so all your setup today is to catch these scammers, right?"

"Hmph! It's not too late to confess now!"

The female cop snorted coldly.

Dirk exhaled deeply and said to Elbert Rivers who was driving, "Just as I predicted, Mountridge County will definitely ensure Astrid Giles's safety. Their actions today are to buy Astrid Giles time."

Elbert nodded.

Asked, "Boss, considering this, it's likely those behind us will be stopped too. Is it too dangerous with just the two of us going?"

Dirk pondered for a moment.

Said, "We can't worry about that now. We can't let her get away no matter what."

Their conversation just ended.

The female cop sneered.

Said, "Seems you're quite into your role, calling each other boss outside?"

She pointed her finger at Dirk and said, "You don't have a shred of leadership aura; no common sense at all. How old are you? Impersonating the Municipal Commission Secretary?"

"Do I not look the part?"

Dirk asked.

The female cop laughed heartily and asked back, "Look the part? Are you kidding? With your sleazy vibe? But thinking again, it seems the public's awareness is weak—anti-fraud education still needs more work."

This made Elbert Rivers, driving, chuckle secretly.

Dirk Carter was so angry.

Asked Elbert Rivers, "Do I look like a leader?"

Elbert Rivers quickly replied, "Boss, have you started doubting your identity being misled by her?"

Hearing this, Dirk immediately asked the female cop, "What's your name?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"You won't tell me? Fine, I'll find out myself!"

With that, Dirk reached for the female cop's chest.

This time.

She only had one hand left.

Trying to stop Dirk was impossible.

Just like that.

Under Dirk's force.

The police badge in her chest pocket was taken out.

Dirk looked intently, muttering, "Dulce Lewis, nice name."

"Give it back to me!"

Dulce Lewis shouted angrily.

Dirk said, "I'll keep your badge for now. Come to the Municipal Commission to retrieve it after this is over!"

"For real? You're addicted to acting mighty? Give my badge back now!"

Using her remaining hand, Dulce Lewis kept attacking Dirk.

Dirk was annoyed.

Pointed at Dulce Lewis and warned, "Okay, I'm a criminal—I'm a criminal, fine? Sit tight; if you move again, I'll first violate you, then kill you, and dump your body in the wild—do you believe me?"

After saying that.

He showed a fierce expression.

Dulce Lewis was just a rookie cop.

She was frightened by Dirk's menacing face.

Immediately quieting down in the corner, not daring to speak.

Indeed, as Dulce Lewis said.

There were many checkpoints set up by Mountridge County police along the way.

Elbert Rivers, worthy of his police background, showed strong adaptability, maneuvering through winding small roads and avoiding police checks with the help of navigation.

After driving for another half hour, they entered Stillwater Town, bordering Serenity State's Ardmore City.
