Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mona shouted so suddenly that Roan almost threw the steering wheel away.

The next second, Roan reacted and hurriedly turned his head to ask, “What? When did he die? How did he die?”

Mona looked down at the computer and said quickly, “I just hacked into the internal network of the New York Police Department to locate West. I found out that West was in a car accident at an intersection in the Lower Queens District ten minutes ago and died on the spot! However, the New York Police Department found explosive components in the tires of the car.”

“Ten minutes ago?”

Roan’s pupils contracted, and Mona also thought of something. The two of them looked at each other and said in unison,

“The other party is going for the kill!”

“The other party acted so quickly?”

Hearing Mona typing away on the keyboard, Roan turned the car around and drove to Queens. He rubbed his temple with his left hand, feeling a little troubled by the mastermind.

The car drove past two intersections. Roan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped the car by the roadside. He turned to look at Mona and said in a deep voice, “Mona, is there a possibility that West is not Mike’s murderer, but the person Mike was waiting for at the bar?”

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, Mona’s hands paused on the keyboard. She suddenly came to her senses and continued to analyze what Roan had said.

“Mike wanted to meet with West to talk about something, but West was worried that Mike would be followed and that the bar was not safe, so he did not meet Mike at the bar. Instead, he waited for Mike to leave the bar and find a place to contact him!”

“That’s right!”

Roan nodded and continued, “Their anti-tracking skills were obviously not good. In the end, they were still seen by the murderer. The murderer killed Mike in the park last night, but he didn’t find what he was looking for, so he killed West today…”

As he spoke, Roan suddenly clapped his hands, and his eyes lit up. He hurriedly tilted his head and asked,”

“Mona, were there West’s car keys at the scene of the accident?”

“Car keys?”

Mona was puzzled, but she still subconsciously started typing. A few seconds later, she looked up and replied,

“No, the New York Police Department didn’t find the car key.”

“I knew it!”

Roan laughed out loud. He started the car and changed directions on the street. He then sped off in another direction.

Mona, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, was very uncomfortable from the inertia of the car turning. Seeing that the car was not heading in the direction of the accident, she hurriedly asked, “Hey! Luo An, where are you going?”

“We’re going to West’s house!”

Hearing Roan’s excited reply, Mona thought for a few seconds and came to a realization.

“A man’s car keys are usually hung together with his house keys.”

“That’s right.”

Roan nodded and stepped on the accelerator after crossing the traffic light.

“The murderer definitely did not find what he wanted on West’s body or in the car, so he could only go to West’s house to look for it. If we’re fast enough, we might be able to catch the real culprit in a while!”

Mona gulped when she saw car quickly passing houses as it sped through the traffic. She silently grabbed the seatbelt instead of tapping on the computer. She turned around and said,

“Roan, you don’t have to be in such a hurry. If something happens, your driver’s license will be revoked even if you’re from the FBI.”

Roan chuckled and stepped on the accelerator. He said confidently,

“Don’t worry, I don’t have a driver’s license. They can’t revoke it.”

“What?”

“Hehe, I’m just joking.”

Squeak!

On a road in Scarsdale, a black SUV suddenly stopped beside a two-story villa.

Mona put on her bulletproof vest and walked down from the passenger seat with a Glock 19 in her hand. She turned around and saw Roan wearing a helmet and was fully armed. Her mouth twitched, but she still nodded and made a gesture. The two of them walked towards the villa’s door together.

Roan walked up the stairs with a gun in both hands. He looked through the glass window and saw that there was no one in the room. Seeing that Mona was looking at him, he did not hesitate. He kicked the door open and shouted,

“FBI open up!”

Bang!

The house was quiet as if there was no one in it. Mona looked at the broken door under Roan’s feet and did not know what to say. However, she still held her gun and leaned against it. She followed Roan’s footsteps and searched every house in the villa as quickly as possible.

“It’s safe.”

“It’s safe.”

After confirming that the villa was empty, Mona began to carefully inspect the house. She only saw a mess of magazines, coffee, books, and other miscellaneous items on the floor.

It was obvious that the murderer was one step ahead of the two of them. Not only did he find the things and leave, but he also messed up the villa at the same time, trying to confuse the people who came here to investigate.

Mona started contacting the leader of Investigation Team No. 5, wanting them to send someone to search the house for clues. Roan frowned when he saw the broken glass windows in the kitchen and the seasoning on the stairs.

“Something is wrong.”

“Hmm?”

Seeing that Mona was confused, Roan put on his helmet and pulled out his gun without hesitation. He walked slowly to the back door and said in a muffled voice, “The murderer hasn’t gone far. The things in the house look like they were deliberately messed up, but in fact, the murderer left in a hurry! Who would scatter the seasoning everywhere? He must have made a mistake when he saw our car!”

Mona nodded and followed closely behind with her pistol.

Roan slowly opened the back door of the villa and rushed out. However, there were no pedestrians on the road. There were only a few cars parked by the roadside.

“Roan?”

Mona tilted her head and looked at Roan. Roan made a hand gesture and slowly walked toward the nearest golden Chevrolet with both hands holding the gun. At the same time, he shouted, “FBI! Roll down the window! Put your hands on the steering wheel, let me see your hands go to the track!”

“Ok! Ok! Don’t shoot!”

The car window slowly opened, revealing a white girl in a spaghetti strap dress. Roan glanced around and found that the girl was the only one in the Chevrolet. Mona was relieved to see this.

It should not be her.

Roan and Mona looked at each other and understood each other’s thoughts. Roan took a step back, and Mona put away her gun, ready to ask the girl a simple question.

At this moment, the black Ford not far away from the golden Chevrolet suddenly started moving. Roan raised his gun and was about to shout at the other party, but the Ford’s owner reacted faster. The window was lowered halfway, and without looking at Roan’s position, he reached out his pistol and pulled the trigger!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

“Get down!”

Luo An pushed Mona to the ground and pulled out the front door of the golden Chevrolet to block in front of him. Ignoring the high-pitched screams of the girl in the dress beside him, Roan adjusted the Glock 18 to burst mode and pulled the trigger in the direction of the black Ford.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Roan’s marksmanship was very accurate. Not only did the bullets hit the Ford’s owner’s left hand and wrist, causing the gun in his hand to fall to the ground, but a few bullets even passed through the back glass and grazed his scalp. The Ford’s owner was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.

“F*ck!”

After cursing loudly, the Ford owner no longer hesitated. He did not care if the front of the car in the right position. He stepped on the accelerator and rushed toward the main road.

Seeing this, Roan aimed at the Ford’s right rear wheel. Bang!

Gunshots rang out, and the next second, the Ford, which had been moving in a straight line, immediately swayed on the road. It did not last long before it crashed into a trash can by the roadside.
