Chapter 46: The Furious First Deputy Director
Bang..., a muffled sound aroused!
The first deputy commissioner of the New York Police Department, wearing a four-star rank, slapped his hands heavily on the holographic map table, and his furious opponent yelled at the senior police officer: "Tell me, how long will it take to catch that bastard?"
The scene in front of him is in an NYPD mobile command vehicle. After Chief Bratton's death, First Deputy Chief Wood took over his position. In normal times, Mr. Wood would have been delighted with the promotion, but the situation was terrible.
Faced with the questioning of the first deputy commissioner, a bunch of senior officers of the New York Police Department were speechless. The on-site search was underway, and the inspection, forensics, questioning, and searching were all carried out at an extraordinary speed. But it takes time to catch criminals.
But the problem now is that the NYPD lacks time.
The kidnapping case of Lena Fox has attracted national attention. Even the President called to inquire about the specific situation. Media reporters went wild with reports. Countless people were watching the progress of the New York police in rescuing the hostages.
Can toss for two days, what is the result?
The kidnappers are all hanged, the hostages are rescued, the perfect ending? No..., the director has hung up!
It was originally a happy victory scene, but it turned 180 degrees and completely became a shame in the history of the New York Police Department. In front of more than 100 police officers at the scene, the murderer shot and killed Bra, who was calling for help and running for his life. Chief Tony. People all over the world can see this scene through the media terminal.
Immediately, there was an uproar in public opinion. Let alone Mr. President, the entire United States demanded that the police immediately arrest the murderer to maintain public order and the dignity of the police department.
However, Mr. Wood, the first deputy director, felt like he was sitting on a volcanic crater, and he could be swallowed up by public opinion at any time. Because this case seems ordinary, but everyone with discernment knows that something is wrong, especially the process of Director Bratton's escape, there are too many doubts.
But the key now is to catch the perpetrator. As long as the kid named Victor Hugo is caught, the pressure of the whole incident can be reduced by most. Then came the trouble, that kid's ferocity far exceeded the expected assessment.
At the kidnapping scene at the hospital, two New York SWAT officers were shot dead, and at the Sacred Heart Quaker building on Fifth Avenue, three more SWAT officers were killed, two were injured, and one was even stunned.
In such a situation, Mr. Wood, who came up against it, wanted to scold his mother--New York's emergency service team has always been known for being strong, professional and efficient. When did they become so soft and they were killed like chickens? Kill again and again.
At this moment, outside the building of the Sacred Heart Friendship Association, all kinds of police and emergency vehicles were parked. There were more than 100 police officers and more than 200 reporters around the scene, and the scene was disturbing. The door of the clubhouse, which was smashed by the armored vehicle, was still in disarray, and several corpses were put into body bags and were being carried out from inside.
Through the bulletproof glass windows of the mobile command car, Deputy Director Wood could see that the reporters were rushing forward excitedly, trying to film the tragic state of the corpse. severity.
Zhou Qingfeng has been hailed by the media as the most dangerous criminal in the world in the 21st century! The fierceness is beyond MAX!
A Chinese boy has repeatedly massacred white people. Just think about it and know that all kinds of appalling headlines are about to appear in the headlines of major media. But now the police's investigation of Zhou Qingfeng has reached a deadlock - everyone knows who committed the crime, but they can't catch him.
In the current situation, Lena Fox has helped Zhou Qingfeng a lot. Escape by helicopter was the right thing to do at the time, and the only right thing to do.
If he escaped from the ground road, surveillance cameras all over Manhattan and even New York would lock Zhou Qingfeng's escape route. If he leaves the sewers, he will definitely force the New York SWAT to launch a storm to the extent that Deputy Chief Wood is in a state of distress.
But it left from the air, and the police had no way to track it. Because there are too many escape routes in the sky, fly in all directions without any restrictions. And no one saw where the murderer fled, and the New York police didn't even know which direction they were chasing.
At the speed of the helicopter, two or three hours was enough for Zhou Qingfeng to escape hundreds of kilometers away. If he had more time, he could even go to Canada. With this speed of escape, how can the police make follow-up arrests?
After being embarrassed, Deputy Director Wood forced himself to calm down. He still hoped that the murderer could be found through some technical means. For example: satellite, radar, or communication monitoring or something. He has issued a wanted notice to the United States and offered a reward of five million dollars for clues, intending to let Zhou Qingfeng fall into the ocean of the American version of the people's war.
However, this takes time. There may be news in the next second, or there may be no news in the future. In this restless waiting, the hour hand moved step by step towards six o'clock in the afternoon. The time of three days is about to come, and the cataclysm is coming.
But at around 5:30 in the afternoon, a piece of news came: that someone called the police and found the helicopter on which Zhou Qingfeng and Lena Fox escaped.
"Where? Where? Where?" Deputy Director Wood asked excitedly. Now he is not afraid of Zhou Qingfeng's trouble, but he is afraid that he will hide without a trace, "Is that bastard still in the United States?"
The police officer who came to report quickly nodded and said: "The suspect did not flee the country, in fact he..."
Not escaping the border is great news, so there is no need to involve diplomatic troubles. Deputy Director Wood asked even more excitedly: "Is he within 500 kilometers of us?"
The interrupted police officer nodded again: "Yes, the suspect did not flee far."
Deputy Director Wood was so excited that he was climaxing, "Hahaha... God bless! That helicopter must have malfunctioned, and that bastard had to land halfway. Is he in a city near us?"
The policeman smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, the suspect did not actually leave New York at all."
"What..., didn't you leave New York?" The Deputy Commissioner's face immediately turned from excitement to stiffness, and he shouted: "That bastard dare not escape from New York? Does he know that the police are catching him everywhere. Is there something wrong with his brain?
Where is he hiding? The Queen? Did he escape home again? It must be like this. Most criminals have a habit of always thinking of going home after committing a crime. "
The police officer who came to report was interrupted several times in a row, but he had to say patiently: "Sir, the suspect did not go to Queens. He is actually still in Manhattan."
"Still in Manhattan?" Deputy Chief Wood felt extremely humiliated, as if he had been strongly despised by criminals. He roared angrily: "How can he still stay in Manhattan? Does he really think that we police officers are all idiots? For so long, he didn't even escape Manhattan?"
"Actually, the helicopter the suspect fled in was less than five kilometers away from us, near Columbia University. We think he should still be in Manhattan," the police finally reported.
The Deputy Commissioner was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and roared angrily: "Bastard, bastard, bastard! How dare he stay so close to me. He is ignoring the ability of our New York police and laughing at our New York police. Quality.
I must catch him and make him regret it. No... I ordered him to be shot on the spot! This damn bastard, let him go to hell to repent. "
