My Beauty Collection: Starting from Banshee Town

Chapter 249
Emmett and the ambulance arrived almost at the same time. Seeing the corpses all over the ground, the medical staff who came to the scene were no longer surprised.

With the joint efforts of several people, the scene was quickly cleaned up.

As for the members of the Red Bone Gang snatched away by General Huo, there was no monitoring at the scene, and there were no witnesses, so they could only take pictures slowly.

The three people who remained at the scene were all killed, and only a small pickup truck was left on the side of the road without any useful clues.

At the Genoa base, several aggressive military jeeps soon drove up.

More than a dozen soldiers with live ammunition jumped out of the car one after another. After asking Hood about the general situation with a bad face, they left the scene with the truck.

At noon, Myers Restaurant.

"Although this kind of case can only be put aside to eat ashes, and it involves people from the Chino tribe, we have no law enforcement power."

Picking up the three-layer beef cheeseburger on the dinner plate, Ethan took a big bite at the place with the most meat, chewed a few times, and continued:
"But the Red Bone Gang has conflicts with us, I think we need to find out about the situation."

"No matter what, at least there is a mental preparation."

Hood nodded and rolled up the macaroni on the plate with a fork: "After lunch, let's go to the Genoa base to meet their person in charge."

"Don't worry, let's talk after eating."

Ethan doesn't like to eat in a hurry, he just enjoys the taste.

He took a swig of the watered-down Coke Dahlia made for him and burped comfortably.

After lunch, they changed into a police car and headed to the base in Genoa.

Ten minutes later, the police car stopped slowly in front of the gate of a small military training base.

Two soldiers with live ammunition stood guard at the gate post.

One of the black buddies came over, and he looked at the badge on Hood: "Good afternoon, Sheriff."

"How may I help you?"

"Hello."

Hood nodded to him, with his arm on the car window: "Who is your person in charge here?"

After the black buddy soldier looked at him and Ethan, he said:
"The person in charge is Colonel Stowe, Sheriff."

Hood reached out to take Ethan's police badge, then took off his own police badge, and handed it to the black buddy soldier: "Please contact Colonel Ster, I need to see him."

The black buddy soldier checked the police badge and handed it back to Hood:
"Do you have an appointment, please, Sheriff."

"I just learned his name from you, how could there be an appointment?"

"Without permission, you are not allowed to enter the base."

Hood looked at the soldier with a serious face, and his fingers resting on the car window jumped a few times:

"I don't know if you have heard, but this morning, three marines at your base were killed about eight miles away from here."

The soldier nodded, his face serious.

"This is a homicide investigation and that's my license."

Hood pursed his lips, and continued: "In addition, my colleagues and I killed three of the gangsters who killed your marines. I think this is at least worth a phone call."

"Just a moment, Sheriff."

The soldier smiled at the two of them, turned around and walked towards the sentry post next to the gate, picked up an intercom phone and started making a call.

After a while, the door slowly opened.

"Sheriff, drive 200 meters inside, turn left and stop before the second house, please don't walk around."

"OK, thanks."

Hood waved his hands at the black soldiers, started the police car and drove into the Genoa military base.

Along the way, everywhere is heavily guarded.

Iron nets, military vehicles, and patrolling soldiers can be seen everywhere, and the roar of helicopters can be heard in the sky.

As soon as they got out of the car, a soldier in camouflage combat uniform walked towards them quickly.

He was tall and burly, with a determined look in his eyes.

When walking, the waist is straight, and the distance of each step seems to be measured with a ruler.

This kind of person is a hammer, a hammer that has been tempered by mold.

They look at everything like a nail, and they only think about violent solutions. Hood is very familiar with this kind of people, and he almost became one of them.

"Sheriff."

Hood shook hands with him: "Hello, Colonel Stowe."

Colonel Sturt nodded to Hood, feeling the rough calluses on Hood's palms.

"police officer."

"Good afternoon, Colonel."

He also shook hands with Ethan who was standing aside. His skin was delicate, with only a thin layer of calluses.

A trace of disdain flashed in Colonel Sturt's eyes, and then he looked at Hood.

"I'm waiting for your arrival, Sheriff."

Hood knew that he was just being polite, nodded and said:

"I want to start off by telling you how sorry I am, what happened this morning was a tragedy."

"They have been with me nine times in Afghanistan and Iraq, but unexpectedly lost their lives in daily training at the old base in Banshee Town, Pennsylvania."

Colonel Stowe took off his hat and clenched his cheeks:
"I don't even know how to tell their families how the damn thing happened."

"follow me."

Colonel Stowe turned around and led the two of them to walk inside, passing through an iron mesh gate guarded by soldiers, and walking forward tens of meters, they came to a circular building with a concrete outer wall.

In the middle is a wide iron gate, which is so strong that even a truck cannot break through it.

Colonel Stowe walked to the small door next to it, which was also a solid iron door. He stretched out his palm and pressed it in front of the LCD screen next to it, and said loudly:
"Colonel Douglas Stowe."

Ripples lit up on the screen, the red light turned green, and the iron door clicked open.

The security system above requires not only fingerprint recognition, but also voice recognition.

As expected of a military base, it is heavily guarded.

Following Colonel Ster through the iron gate, the room is a large arc-shaped space, in which more than a dozen soldiers are busy carrying things.

Hood looked around and asked curiously, "Are you going to close this place?"

"It's not moving out, it's moving in."

Colonel Stowe walked inside: "They're clearing the place so they can store things brought back from war zones, guns, valuables, uniques, you name it."

A few soldiers who were carrying a large box in front quickly walked by and averted their sight.

Ethan and Hood stopped uncontrollably, staring blankly at a corner ahead.

In a vault with a size of about seven or eight square meters, there is a hill of banknotes more than one meter high on the ground, and a large amount of cash is also piled up on the three-tiered shelves at the back.

Compared with the cash piled up on the pool table when the spoils were divided before, it is not worth mentioning here.

Two soldiers in the vault were counting the number. One of them picked up a large stack of banknotes wrapped in film from the banknote mountain and put them on the shelf.

"bang"

The dull sound made the hearts of both of them jump.
