Jon frowned when he saw the homeless man unlocking his gun.
“F*ck, my luck is really bad.”
The gunshot was exceptionally clear in this empty abandoned factory.
This made Jon realized that something was wrong.
The gunshot made him suddenly heard some dog barks in the distance.
“Barking dogs?”
Jon pondered for a moment and suddenly packed his things into his backpack.
He realized that something was not right!
How could someone keep a dog in a place where there was no people at all!
The only thing that would appear at this time was a police dog!
The New York Police Force had found this place!
Jon was a little surprised.
He had thought that the police would find this place.
After all, even though he had done a reverse reconnaissance, there were only a few areas that matched his escape location.
Sooner or later, they would find this place.
Therefore, he would also move every two hours and fight with the other party until dawn.
But he did not expect that the police were not all good-for-nothings.
Raising his eyebrows, Jon was even a little excited.
That was more like it.
It was too boring to be escaped just like this.
Jon licked his lips.
Without escaping, this game was be less interesting.
The robbers didn’t just rob, more importantly, there was a follow-up escape route.
If he escaped successfully this time, he would definitely receive a perfect acting reward!
Thinking of this, he cleaned up all traces of this place and took everything away.
This safe house would be found by the police sooner or later.
Thus, all the safe houses that were found would be abandoned by him.
He turned his head and took a look. Only the homeless man who had been knocked unconscious by him was left.
Grabbing the black backpack, Jon judged that the police were only a few kilometers away from him based on the sound of the police dogs just now.
They could be even rushing toward him.
He had to hurry.
As a former Navy SEALs, Jon was not good at camouflage and acting but he was good at escaping!
He had learned a lot about escaping from the pursuit when he was in the team.
So he had used it in this exercise.
Why was this called a safe house.
It was because there were very few people here, far from residential areas.
It was also because there was at least one route for him to escape.
Of course there was one here.
After confirming the location, Jon took out a huge plastic bag and packed his black backpack inside.
He also switched the clothes of the homeless man with his own.
He did this to cover up the smell on his clothes.
Of course, he had more extreme methods.
But if there were ready-made ones, he naturally didn’t want to use them.
He looked at the time after he was done with that.
It was already early in the morning.
Given the time, it should be about time to go.
It turned out Jon’s abandoned factory is next to a garbage disposal plant.
New York City is full of abandoned factories.
The reason Jon chose this place as a safe house was, firstly, the waste incineration needed to be processed here and the pollution was high. Thus, the situation where no one would come met the conditions of concealment.
The second reason was that this place had a means of transportation that could reach all parts of the city, and it fulfilled the condition of being able to escape.
As for the safe houses that met these two conditions, Jon still had a few.
Not far away, a white garbage disposal truck was slowly starting to start.
The sound of the truck that forensic expert James had heard in the police station was the sound of the garbage truck.
Every morning, this was the time when the garbage truck set off to clean up the garbage in the city.
This was the escape route that Jon had left for himself.
He followed the two garbage trucks back to the city.
There wasn’t much time left for him now.
When he was almost ready, Jon prepared to hitch a ride.
But before he left, he left a little “surprise” for the police officers who were looking for him.
…
Team Three, who was in charge of the north, rushed to the destination as soon as he heard the sheriff’s order.
He was about to start a thorough search here.
Each team had ten sub-teams.
One sub-team had 12 people.
It was fully equipped with a police dog.
A team of 120 people in total.
And this was just the search team in the north.
The combined police force was a few hundred men.
The sheriff was going all out this time.
After all…
The rest of New York City needed to be maintained.
It had never been heard before that so many officers to be deployed on short notice to hunt down a fugitive from a bank drill.
This was the authority that the sheriff finally applied for with his boss.
One had to know that normally, he did not have the authority to mobilize so many police forces to set up a case.
This time he couldn’t let the robber run away again.
Thus, he had to be absolutely sure.
Hundreds of police forces and the smartest brains in the police station.
This time, no matter what Jon said, he would not be able to escape their pursuit!
As each team reported their situation, the sheriff suddenly heard a signal from the northern team.
“Report, sheriff! We heard gunshots in the north! Suspected robber!”
Hearing that new progress had been made so soon, the sheriff smiled.
He picked up the walkie-talkie and quickly gave the order.
“The teams in the north continue to carpet search. Do not take the initiative to attack. Right now, we are the active party. Do not fall into the rhythm of the other side.”
“The other teams do not need to be distracted. This robber is very cunning. Right now, time is with us. Continue to carry out the mission according to the original plan.”
When the team members heard this, they all agreed.
The three people in the police station also nodded their heads repeatedly.
As a veteran of the police station, the sheriff naturally showed his old side after he adjusted his mentality.
No one could find fault with this wave of commanding.
All the live broadcast media nodded repeatedly, too.
This time the sheriff did not sit in the commanding car but was commanding on the spot.
Not only did he want to show off his ability, but he also wanted to wash away his shame.
There was actually someone on the internet said that he was a good-for-nothing who only knew how to receive money from taxpayers?
What he wanted was to prove to them that he was not!
Meanwhile, the audience in the live broadcast room also started to send bullet comments.
“Now he looks a little like the sheriff. What were the orders from the bank previously?”
“I have to say that this arrest operation is much more serious than the previous one.”
“This time, the robber is really unlucky. The police are getting serious now.”
“Previously, the police did not take it seriously and took advantage of the loophole. Now, he can’t play tricks.”
Many netizens also felt that the police were certain this time.
Many people on the internet didn’t expect that Jon would continue to write his own legend of a robber.
After all, they all believed that if the police became serious and mobilized so many people, Jon would be caught sooner or later.
The police had an absolute advantage in numbers and equipment.
And Jon’s only advantage was that he had time and could hide in advance.
Now he was being analyzed by a few police brains.
He was completely locked in a circle, not a fly could fly out.
Everyone thought Jon was doomed this time!
